Your rants do not prove a anything. its not your fault. its because you are not well travelled. Every state in Nigeria can attest to the fact that a large chunk MSMEs in non SE States are owned by the Igbo. from sokoto to bayelsa, from yola to warri
Again I ask What fvcking MSMEs?? Are you too ashamed to call them the traders they really are? Be sincere enough to call them traders because igbos in most states outside the SE are predominantly TRADERS. You hardly find them in any skilled labour because they are content with selling goods in their 2x2. Even at Ladipo in Lagos, Yorubas constitute the bulk of the Mechanics while igbos just sell their spare parts in their shops. Ditto Computer Village where Yorubas are the bulk of the laptop and phone repairers that deal more with softwares and the likes, while igbos sell hardware in their shops. #Fact.

its a shame you can be this immature. Read the dailies and be informed. MSMEs in Kano, Plateau, Sokoto, Borneo, Lagos, Rivers, Oyo, Edo, Delta, Ogun, etc are mainly run by the Igbo.

Have you been reading the news?
What fvcking MSMEs are you talking about for goodness sakes beyond trading?? My plumber, tailor, auto-mechanics are NOT igbos. Igbos are mainly traders that sit in 2x2 shops next to each other fighting for the same customer, that's your single biggest contribution to Nigeria's economy. If that's what you consider an MSME then dude you're sick. #Fact.

just look at how foolish you are. do States represent ethnicity in MSMEs? Are Igbo not in Lagos, Ogun, Kano, Plateau, etc? You are indeed immature
You are the BIGGER fool for even remotely suggesting that your people constitute any significant portion of the MSMEs in Yorubaland outside Lagos (you hypocrites are the same ones that are always quick to claim that you only emigrate to Lagos and no other place within the SW). FYI, we have our own MSMEs in our region, they include hardworking men and women in various crafts that include Tailoring, Welding, Plumbing, Auto-Mechanics, amongst other artisans -- and I'm not even including our own indigenous traders here. See how foolish you are now? You people just like feeling important with yourselves.

As for the Igbo, they are known to be the main custodians of MSMEs (Micro, Small and Medium Scale Enterprises). From Lagos to Kano, from Aba to Port Harcourt, all over the federation. The Igbo collective wealth is almost evenly distributed in these regard.
Tah! You are a fvcking liar. The only thing you people are known for in most states outside your region is trading. YORUBAS DOMINATE THE MSME SECTOR! #FAct. Having a 2x2 shop doesn't translate to being an MSME (Check below for the NBS stats on number of SME per state in Nigeria). Yoruba states beat una like drum.

Your problem as a people is that you expect every other tribe to become nomads/almajiris like you lot, going about opening 2x2 shops all over the place, before you can consider them 'hardworking'. Guy, the world has gone past 2x2 shops. Yoruba folks have way more ambition than becoming traders (or seeing trading as a 'future ambition') that sit in their shops next to each other all freaking day, fighting for the same customer. Fvck that shyt. Nah dude, we are more into serious crafts that are more worthwhile and that challenge the mind. Even our folks in the retail space are approaching it from a tech/innovative standpoint. We no be una mates at all at all.

Let me tell you something about Olu Okeowo. cool Many years back, while working on a project, he needed a particular shade of brown paint to finish off a client's job. He searched everywhere for that shade of paint, but could not find it. sad So he went to one of the international paint manufacturers in Ikeja, and asked them to make that particular type of paint for him. After a series of negotiations, this was duly done and a new shade of brown emulsion paint was launched into the market. It was named after Okeowo's company and called 'Gibraltar brown.' cheesy Till today, he earns royalty on each tin of that paint, sold by the company.

Each of his flats in Ikoyi sell for almost 100 million naira a piece. wink His wife's name is Adejoke, by the way! cheesy
That's partly why he was nicknamed 'Lagos Landlord'. The amount of properties that man owns in that Ikoyi/Banana Island axis alone no be small thing.

Even they don't trust the quality of their own products enough to build them as stand-alone brands, which explains why they feel the need to slap established brand labels on their products, e.g. Hugo BoSh, Tommy HilfiNger, GucHi, Frendi, G-Wagoon e.t.c. cheesy

The Stanel chap couldn't find a worthy enough fast-food chain owned by a fellow igboman in the entire Igboland so he humbled himself and and kuku picked from one of the many reputable Yoruba brands. He settled for Chicken Republic. No single igbo brand can match the likes of Yoruba-owned TFC, Mega-chicken, Tantalizers, Sweet Sensation, or Chicken Republic amongst others. Na we own the fast-food chain and restaurant business for Naija. E.g, I know from a credible insider source that every TFC branch rakes in nothing less N5-million naira per day on a bad day. They don beg the owner tire, even with free land sef, to expand her restaurant chain to Abuja and other parts of the country but she said she's OK with just Lag. Awa La'n run things in that space.

Speaking at the unveiling event, one of the brothers High Chief Johnson Obasa said Tekowi was coined from “te oko wi” an Ekiti local dialect which means sandals or boots farmers and hunters wear regularly to the bush to stamp on anything. He also said that TEKOWI is a combination ruggedness and luxury.

According to the other brother, Victor Obasa {snr} he stated Tekowi’s unique design features which are; 4 wheel drive, High ground clearance, Custom interior tailored to customer specification, Stereo system integrated with latest technology, Diamond floor plate flooring, Reinforced steel structure, Double utility storage, Engine air scoop and Name branding option, to mention a few.

He said that Tekowi is hand crafted with simple tools and locally sourced materials.

What I've noticed with Yoruba business in an industry where you have the Igbos making a lot of noise, is the modernity of business structure as oppossed to the chaotic alabaru style of their Igbo co-players.

Case in point, Healthplus and Medplus vs the chaotic multitude.
Absolutely. That's the difference between an entrepreneur (Yoruba) and small business owners/traders (Igbos). Entrepreneurs are innovators -- they capture value by reinventing the wheel and seeking out more efficient/technology-friendly ways of doing business, while the average igbo spare-parts trader is still doing 'biznis' the same old way his 'oga' taught him, till they are rendered useless and obsolete or are kicked out of the business altogether.

A 24-year old Yoruba lad already blazed that trail last year by setting up an auto parts e-commerce retail startup, and he's doing great!

http://autofactorng.com/index.php

http://www.vanguardngr.com/2016/06/meet-young-man-redefining-auto-parts-business-nigeria/

Same trend is noticeable in the English-sector of 'Nollywood' (which they errorneously claim to have pioneered). The highest grossing box office Nollywood cinema hits ever made have more Yoruba folks as directors than any other ethnicity - 'Wedding Party' (Kemi Adetiba) , '50' (Biyi Bandele), 'October First' (Kunle Afolayan), 'Half of a Yellow Sun' (Biyi Bandele), 'The CEO' (Kunle Afolayan), 'Isoken' (Jade Osiberu), 'Phone Swap' (Kunle Afolayan). The upcoming 'My wife and I', also directed by another Omo kaaro'jire -- Bunmi Ajakaiye.


Yoruba directors are redefining/giving the typical hitherto mediocre Nollywood a makeover by churning out quality movies.
