First of all, you expect Mayfield (Maydon) to come out and say "oh, I just withdrew money from my bank account and paid Evans"? If he does that, he'll be exposing himself more and government may want to be interested on how much he pays as tax. Maydon gave out 40 brand new Toyota Corolla cars last year to some members of his staff and customers. How much is a Toyota corolla? Ebele of Greenlife pharm gave out 80 brand new cars that same last year. It's a competition. We were only able to give out 7 these year to our sales reps as we are just growing.

Secondly, an average Igbo trader hates bank loan. No average Igbo trader will take a loan from you at 21% interest. What many if them do is that they build trust with their suppliers in China and at some point, the suppliers start granting them credit facilities some tests running into millions of dollars (interest free) ie they release goods to you more than what you deposited and then you remit as you dispose.

Lastly, how many Igbo names do you see on list of those holding non performing loans in banks and of the few Igbos there, how many are traders?.

Dem say Travel and see. Make friends with young Igbo importers in the major markets (not roadside retailers), move around with them and let your eyes open.

Tell us the revenues this Ibo companies make and stop telling us about the old ford cars they give out.

ELKHALIFAISIS:
hahahaha your grandpa owned what typical yellowbar demon will rather go back to his hinterland village than to pay a rent of 500k... few houses currently own by Yorubas are abandon properties, can a lazy man afford a plot of land in our Lagos

Show us the properties Ibos own in lagos and stop lying.

And the companies you own too.

Lakeside79:
Like I said earlier you are a tout

I don't join issues with f00ls .. if f00ls decide to insult yorubas i practise the age old saying that goes the best response to a f00l is indeed silence

Now if you think my joining the bandwagon of nairaland touts to insult tribes makes me a man then sorry nigga I am a single father and I have a princess to raise to be a classy lady not a bread seller
I am educated and know the difference between being childish and downright stupidityy

I have insukted Ibis several times in my life and I have sat with touts like you to blame ibos for everything wrong in my life but what came of it?

Dude I am done being stupidd but if it's your thing then pls by all means go ahead

But do not expect me to join your delusional bandwagon

Then keep shut and stayed hidden in the shadow as you do when they insult Yorubas. For many of you sha, it's not your fault. It's your ignorance.

You don't know what you have in the SW. You don't know the companies Yorubas have. You don't know our agricultural and economical values.

You spend your days dancing to skelewu and reading lies from flat heads on twitter.

Then when asked if you want a Yoruba country, you say no because you think Yorubas need Nigeria.

Unfortunately for us, your ignorance hurts the whole Yoruba tribe.

If you can't can't self-cure your ignorance, then best believe that we will drag your likes as far as we drag the imbe.cilic ibos on this forum.

allrightsir:
stupidity clearly does not know tribal border

You are busy listing successful yorubas, where is your own name there, are your children able to go the the same schools as these people's children?

Oponu!

watch this video and get some sense

Because NL made a leveled ground for miscreant like you to quote me. I'm not on your level trust me. I no dey boast.

Lakeside79:
Koni dafun iya e atI gbogbo ileyin

Akasri osi

Useless agbero

Anytime you see yorubas who stand against tribal hate u guys insult them

F00l

Speaking Yoruba doesn't help your case nigga.

Yoruba is a universal Nigerian language.

Every di.ck and tom moves to the SW, so speaking Yoruba is one of the formalities.

Anytime you speak against tribalistic statements against Yorubas, we'll stop calling you omo ale.

Like I said before, your types na the ones wey dey run when they start insulting Yorubas. Because of one bowlegged yam legs you wan fu..ck for romance section, you sef go join flat heads to insult your people. Awom omo ale orishirishi ti iya won ko ko won.

Lakeside79:
Smh
Because I am not sounding naive and stupidd ?

Wow you just classified all yorubas based on your mental level

That's an afront to all omoluabi's world wide

Please go and sit down

You're sounding very very foolish.

If it's an anti-Yoruba thread where dem they shout skull-mining or afonja, you won't find these fools. They'll be cowering under the guest ID or following one hairy yam legs up and down the romance section.

Awon omo ale talika.

Tell me which Ibo company can match this Yoruba business

Yele Okeremi, CEO Precise Financial Sys.

Soon enough, Yele left a promising career — not to mention an official Peugeot 505 STI — to start Precise Financial Systems (PFS), a multi-million dollar software development company that serves clients (mostly banks) in over 34 countries across Africa.

Full article: techpoint.ng/2017/06/26/yele-okeremi-pfs-ceo/

Tell us which Ibo company can achieve this


This is the Yoruba type companies we're talking about.

Lakeside79:
Ogbeni learn to read and comprehend
I can't insult yorubas because I am full blooded Yoruba and proud of it , but I don't suffer f00

You're not a Yoruba. Awon romance section omo ales claiming Yoruba.

Lakeside79:
You know what ? I won't argue with you
You even helped butress my point

Those insulting south Eastern states are ignorant and f00lush
Cause my point was if you take away all those you call Igbos you think this IGR will be where it is ?

You think 90% of those workers you claimed pay taxes are only yorubas please let's learn to think and not talk for the sake of it

So tell us how much taxes are generated from SE states and why Ibos need to travel to the SW to make money.

Igbos should tell us 10 igbo companies that generates more than $1m per year


Yorubas are ready to name 50.

sunnyb0b0:
The reason is that taxing the informal economy is difficult as everybody will avoid tax given the opportunity to.

Let me shock you a bit, do you think the huge IGR of Lagos is generated from taxes on companies? Go check the make up of the IGR for Lagos state and get back to me then we can discuss further.

Agreed.

Ibo traders avoid paying taxes. Ibos don't pay taxes.

Most taxes are retrieved from government-workers. The SW makes up majority of those posts.

Chicken Republic, a Yoruba company, generate more revenue than 1000 Ibo shops.

allrightsir:
Southerners are being fools! instead of you to focus on the fact that the majority of the govts revenue comes from the SOUTH whether ibo or yoruba you are busy fighting and abusing yourselves.....meanwhile the Northerners who contribute nothing get most of it. Samr thing with our brothers from the Oil producing region, they contribute all the Oil money and the North gets most of it, yet everyday we hear how they have natural resources in the North and every year it remains in the ground.


It is time we yorubas especially the youths join the call for restructuring as it was in the sixties.....let everybody keep 50% of what he generates. There are a lot of Ibos here with hate filled hearts but Yorubas need to look beyond their noise and realise that we are both slaves in this contraption called Nigeria and quite frankly yorubas need to understand that Nnamdi Kanu is doing us all a favour. We are both slaves in Nigeria, you cant win an election unless the north supports you and you cant change the constitution unless the North supports you (to change the constitution you need 66%) is that not slavery? Yoruba ronu!!!


We always claim to be the more enlightened race, it's time we use our brains and realise we have a common interests and whatever you feel about the Ibos, Kanu and IPOB, Nnamdi Kanu is doing us all a favour. I dont think Biafra will ever happen but the subject of the Northern stranglehold of the rest of us can no longer be ignored. Whether we like it or not, Nigeria cannot continue as is, let's be frank, it is a failed state. The SW of today is not where it should be considering where we were in the 50s and 60s.


We would all be better off (including the North) if every body has fiscal control of his domain and then contribute a portion to a weaker center.

Our Ibos brothers can be annoying sometimes especially with their hate speeches but let that not cloud your judgement....they are right at least in the sense that Nigeria is not working for them or for you and for that matter not for the Northerners, It is not working for anybody except the elites.


Yoruba people think o! Kanu is actually fighting your fight for you.

Quiet!!

When Yorubas are succeeding, they claim One Nigeria.

If it's to yab Yorubas, they won't write nonsensical epistle about one south.

sunnyb0b0:
Lol. You see the ignorance I'm talking about. It is people like you that were wondering where Comet star, Maydon and Decees E international (relatively unknown traders) got more than $1M each to settle Evans as ransom.

What is $1M revenue per annum? Are u just kidding? Young boys in Idumota, Alaba, Trade fair etc who are not even known generate revenue more than that per annum.


We own a pharmaceutical company which relatively ud class a small player compared to those we compete with and I didn't include the name in my list above but we generate a monthly revenue in excess of N300M. What you do not know is more than you Bro. If you have a friend or relative who works for a bank branch located in oneb9f the markets, ask them to give you gist.

You see the level of ignorance I'm talking about?

There are more young boys in Aba making fake gucci shoes, but why is the self-acclaimed JAPAN of Africa not generating enough revenue for the SE?

Why can't these so called 'industrious' characteristic reflect on SE IGR?

I've said it, one Yoruba company. Honeywell, makes more revenue than all these small small companies you're mentioning. These huge Yoruba companies pays more taxes to FG than all SE states.

Ngokafor:
....Are you an illiterate??..my 'parasitic' there was simply sarcasm.....It is only in Nigeria where one will find the providers fight tooth and nail to be attached to their providee,by hook or crook
Keep deceiving yourselves..sooner or later we shall know who the true parasites,opportunists and free-loaders are..

..very soon.

Ibos are parasite.

You wonder why SE is one of the poorest Nigerian region? Or that SW is the most industrious region?

Simply put, Ibos can't survive in their SE region.

Nathan2016:
Oboy you de take everything here serious.. Hope say you get job at least... And yes, igbos have lots of investment in lagos... But personally i don't have.. So who cares... Go and develop yourself young man...

Name 10 of the investments

Lakeside79:
You are a liar , they pay all sorts of Lucio taxes

My late mum worked in the local government office

So stop you rubbish

Kid

Your late mom ko.

How much does she pay in taxes compare to how much Honeywell pays?

These small fanyogo boys think they pay taxes? What y'all pay in a year can't feed an IMO LG.

wristbangle:
Bros, u did not attack this well. Na igbo get M&B?

No, of course not. But even if we dash them that company, Honeywell, a Yoruba company generates more wealth than Ibos' commonwealth.

Lakeside79:
[s]Oga 98% of that IGR is generated by the people you call Igbos from shop collections, trading permits , licenses , import duties and such

Tomorrow when they abuse us you will say they are full of hate ?

Oya see your comments

My people and hypocrisy

Smh[/s]

More lies.

Once again, Ibo traders don't pay taxes.

I can name 2 Yoruba companies that generate more revenue than 100 of the ibo shops you can name in Lagos.

Every time we debunk Ibo lies on this forum, the supermod, who is Ibo, comes and deletes posts.

You think we're blind?

You may attempt to keep the truth hidden for some time, but when the 'sun rises', you'll find out how undeveloped the Ibo tribe is.

sunnyb0b0:
That's where you get it wrong. How much is generated in Lagos as a result of the ports in Lagos and who do the bulk of importation there? Retailing serves the local populace and retailers are small players in thebscheme of things. Lagos is the trading hub for West Africa and when I tell you Igbo commerce contributes a lot to Lagos I don't include those retailers in my calculation. Igbos are the major importers of goods in Lagos and most if the imported goods leave Lagos via wholesale distribution channels.

It's people like you that were asking how those unknown Igbos people were able to afford $1M as ransom to Evans. I just laughed on seeing those comments. There are 100s of thousands of Igbos traders who can conveniently part with that in Lagos and I know plenty personally.

Let's look at the pharmaceutical industry/market in Lagos; the Igbos run this multi billion dollar industry almost as a monopoly. Some if them are;

Greenlife
Orange Drugs
Elbe
M & B
Neimeth
Embassy
Vixa
Richy Gold
Neros
Clarion Medicals
Geneith global
Beta Drugs
Jopan
Maydon (one of Evans victims)
Jubilee
Award Global
Agary
E-Chuks
Etc. These are all big time players in the industry so please when I talk of commerce, I make no reference to retailers.

Ibo traders don't pay taxes.

What are the revenues of the companies you mentioned?

One Yoruba man's company, HONEYWELL, makes more than all the companies you posted.

MasterChen:
So this guy deleted Erockson's reply and left some idiotic posts undeleted

See, this is why I hate this guy.

They're trying tooooooooo hard to malign the Yoruba tribe but they will continue to fail.

Ibos ocme with insults, Yorubas come with facts.

sunnyb0b0:
Many well to do Igbos live in Lagos. It'll be interesting to have this data based on state of origin.

Who are they and what are their companies? Name 20 companies owned by igbos that generate more than $1m revenue per year [20 out of thousands of ibos living in lagos]

Most Ibos living in Lagos are fanyogo sellers and 2x2 shop traders. They don't pay taxes.

Ngokafor:
..SWs and empty noise-making/cheap grandstanding are like 5 and 6....see them taking the glory for Lagos..Meanwhile apart from Lagos,other parts of SW are a cesspit and glorified villages.

..As usual,according to them ,they single-handedly made Lagos what it is today,contributing all the taxes made there,while SEs are 'parasitic'..Ironical SE who have 'nothing' are the ones fighting to be from SW as one country.

..Tell them to have their oduduwa republic now and all hell will break loose as they display their fears and aprehensions..

..Very funny people indeed.

We come with facts, not with insults.

Ibos insult, Yorubas rebut with facts.


Yoruba states: Lagos, Ogun, Ondo, Oyo, Ekiti, Osun, Kwara and some parts of Kogi [Okun]
