mrvitalis:
Golf estate Enugu

You want more?

I can name 20 estate in Enugu better than this rubbish una post

horsepower102:
Please don’t ever mention Ibadan and Enugu in the same sentence again. Enugu is very advanced in development when compared to Ibadan.

This is Enugu.

press9jatv:
This estate beat some estate in Enugu State. I only pity some people that compared Ibadan city centre to some city in the South East.

ibechris:
U need to travel.
No need to argue with u.

So, if toiletries, tiles, pipes , doors aren't building materials,then what are they? Tell me. You've simply agreed to my submissions. If you remove those item's you mentioned from a building, what's left are the iron, sand and cement. In my previous post, I mentioned that igbominas, especially oro people sell iron cos I bought iron from them in different mms. How many of them are selling those items you and i mentioned and in wholesale?Where did I lie seamlessly? I bought Stevo doors which is a known quality Turkish security doors at odunade shopping complex. Stevo is popular at odunade and he's an ibo man. We don't sell doors as much as ibos do. You can quote me anywhere. A whole building of 3 floors are occupied by doors only at odunade. Cross to the other side of the new pedestrian road and you'd see several warehouses where home wares are stocked by ibos.

How many of adedoyins and oyin jolayemis do we still have around and I'll mention plenty of ibos who are manufacturers in lagos alone, actively. Where's okin biscuit today? Where is doyin cubes, etc? Most of the banks are owned by ibos, hotels, transportation companies, indigenous breweries, indigenous pharmaceuticals,agribusiness,Computers wares and electronics, Oil and gas, name it. How many Yorubas are trading at alaba market? What of ASPAMDA and Tradefair? Alaba alone will swallow those areas you mentioned. Its where I've also been severally as lagosian We used to be known for such businesses but not anymore.

We're now more of administrators than industrialists and we need to go back. Where's adebowale electronics today? Ibos have taken over that line. Odutola tyres nko? Go to alaba and see wonders. Eleganza had ventured fully into properties with less manufacturing. Don't forget, the topic is about ibos taking over houses and property in Ibadan. In same vein, they're taking over most of the indigenous businesses in which we used to be a leader.

Don't talk of overseas businesses and those who own them cos they contribute nothing to Nigerian economy and most of them don't claim Nigeria. Its totally irrelevant to this topic.

Eriokanmi:
Igbomimas, especially the oro people are petty-traders in building materials and iron scraps they also sell hand tools. When we talk of major building materials, go to Odunade-Coker at mile 2 and see things. I used to join people like you to beat chest until I visited that place. The 90% of the shops there is owned by igbos. A yoruba man owns the odunade/coker complex. That's where I bought all the materials for my house at alimosho.

The agbeni-ogunpa market in Ibadan, that used to be occupied by yorubas are now being taken over by igbos. There was a man called shangokoya in those days. He was the sole importer of lister engine which was mainly meant for grinding casava and corn, from india. It's an old invention. The engine uses 2 drums filled with water to cool it down, it has a long wide belt connecting the engine to the grinder if you still remember it. Some used to convert it to an electric generator in those days. Mr shangokoya became old and his children couldn't continue. That was how the business stopped. Ibos have taken over already. Go to all our villages. Boys have abandoned farming ,now doing okada business in the cities instead of learning the type of trading ibos are doing and taking the skills home to establish. How many ibos do okada transport? Their people will scold then.

The last time I travelled to my maternal grandmother's town in ekiti, most of the shops I visited to buy things were owned by ibos. One of them has a petrol station there. If he builds a mansion in my town today, they'd envy him instead of blaming boys who grew up in that town but doing okada transport in the city. As they're leaving for cities, ibos are tapping the opportunities they're leaving behind. There's no way people won't build houses, buy parts, buy drugs if they fall ill. Those boys don't see all these but quick and daily okada money. Who do you blame for that, still ibos? Our orientation needs to change, seriously.

Eriokanmi:
You may be right but every tribe is also guilty of such crimes. True or false? The onus is on us to learn from them legitimately. How many Yorubas are selling car or car parts at ladipo or elsewhere? What of building materials? These are regular needs and money spinning business areas we're not looking into. You don't need juju or rituals to thrive in it. Only a few of our people who ventured into it never regretted it. I don't need ti mention names. You know them. I'll remind you of Elizade,.metropolitan, etc. They're billionaires today.

MrGerald:
It's natural to migrate, same in my village in Imo, Yorubas are everywhere mostly into building, and keep marrying our girls. Change is constant

Brendaniel:
hatred about what and bad belle about what?

Brendaniel:
What exactly do you mean by politics of bitterness?

Why I Don't Have Respect For Tinubu — Rev. Fr. Kelvin Ugwu.


Catholic Priest, Fr Kelvin Ugwu Reveals After The Nigerian President Met The Pope One On One.

He wrote: “Don't tell me about respecting the president. I am not stopping you from respecting him. As for me, I don't have respect for the man who mocked all Christians in his country by fabricating fake bishops, cardinals, and pastors to make it look like Christians are in support of his Muslim-Muslim ticket. We are not føøls. Call it whatever you like, Tinubu or Shettima will never disrespect Muslims in that manner to fabricate fake Imams.

I don't have respect for a man who blatantly, in the full view of the world, stole the mandate of the people, fabricated numbers, and got himself announced and sworn in as the president. No, Nigerians did not vote for Tinubu. Nigerians are not that stüpid. Yes, there could be some stüpid people, but their stüpidity has not garnered such a majority to be able to put Tinubu in office just by their votes alone.

It is good that he was invited to the inauguration; it is a standard diplomatic practice. My only prayers for him is that as he sat and watched the mass of inauguration of Pope Leo XIV and the crowd from different parts of the world and was also able to meet the Pope one on one, may he come to realize that the world is bigger than his silly ambition to be president of Nigeria by all means. May that realisation make him tell himself the truth by taking a bow out of office by 2027. Then vow to ensure a peaceful, transparent, and credible election for his successor. Or better still, divide the country and let everyone go their way.”
