By Anayo Okoli, ENUGU

IGBO businessmen and investors have been urged to buy into the multi-billion Naira Enugu Industrial Free Trade Zone as the project provides vast opportunities for them.

Located in a massive expanse of land at the 9th Mile Corner, Enugu, the industrial zone is designed to accommodate millions of investors and businessmen.

Powered by Lion Business Park in collaboration with Enugu State Government, it will have its own source of power to boost all the business activities there.

During a business interaction held at park last week, stakeholders in the business sector expressed optimism that the multi-million naira Lion Business Park would engender the growth and development of the economy of the southeast region and beyond.

It would serve as an industrial hub that would help to boost manufacturing and trading in the country.

Speaking during an interaction and familiarisation tour in the park by prospective investors, Chairman of the Business Park, Dr Okechukwu Mbonu, explained that the desire of the promoters was to grow the economy of the South-East region by about 100 percent.

Very stupid idea. They should continue investing in Lagos and Ibadan. At least they'll get massive returns on investment

Igbo men need to make smart business decisions. It is only for the benefit of the Igboid people and their families. Do not let sentiments impede financial goals.

IF SE IS ECONOMICALLY VIABLE. BUSINESSES WILL COME BACK HOME.

ECONOMICALLY VIABLE INCLUDES PROVIDING GOOD ROADS, SEAPORT, DRY PORT, GOOD TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM, ELECTRICITY.

GOVERNMENT WILL NOT BE ABLE TO DO ALL THIS. HENCE, CONCESSIONING IT TO PRIVATE INVESTORS UNDER A BUILD OPERATE AND TRANSFER KINDA ARRANGEMENT WILL GO A LONG WAY.

The south east is not conducive for business, a friend of mine from Ebonyi state wanted to open a fuelling station there, he later abandoned the idea and opened it along lag/ib expressway, when I asked him why the sudden change in venue, he told me that the tax, levies and other hidden charges imposed by the state on him would wreck him in less than a year if he continues with the project in that location.

South eastern governors should stop being greedy and make their states economic friendly so that investors can come in. It's a shame that wealthy Igbo business feel more comfortable investing in the west and north than their respective states.

This I have seen.

The average Ibo man would rather invest in Sambisa Forest before investing in Abakaliki.

Iboes hate living next to each other. If I am lying, ask an average Anambra man if he wants an Ebonyi man as neighbor.
grin They'll rather brag about developing other people's land
