And who will patronize such investments.

what a myopic thinking.. very myopic,


U are in Nigeria and patrionize Chinese, Russina, USA, products.

There are already many industries in the east and are enjoying patrionage . Go to Onitsha alone and see industries run by these guys producing all kinds of finished products sold within east, and the entire country and beyond.

Investment without market for the products is useless.... South East has the least Population,hence the least market.

We go to Europe to buy, same way what we produce can be bought from here. People would always go for where the services they need are met. Distance isn't a barrier in business these days with innovative technologies

Easier said than done. You think Easterner who invest in North and Sw no get sense.. You invest where you can make enough profits

Oga, there are many industries in the east already. So, chill. They sell to both easterners and other countries..

There are so many misconception about the east that some of u need to travel to understand. The industries in Onitcha alone is crazy and they are enjoying patrionage. Ur market is not ur region alone. U can sell to any market around the world. U buy chinese products while in Nigeria.

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 ARRANGEMENT WILL GO A LONG WAY.

If you notice how clannish Igbos are, you will thank God Lagos, Abuja, Kano and PH are not Southeastern states. Igbos can buy land in a remote part of Igbeti, but won't sell to anyone not belonging to their clan. No region has benefitted from Nigeria like the Igbos, yet they are the most bitter and hateful.

If to say Lagos dey East, Igbos for dey treat other Nigerians like dogs. You may think my post is unrelated, but you will understand it better by and by.

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.

Then have nothing at home.... Our home is bushy while we invest in areas where we are not wanted!!!!!

I am Igbo, but to say the truth, we're filled with greed all in the name to become sharp businessmen and 'smart' guys.

Have you ever asked yourself why an Igbo man will rather build his business in the West or North? I'll tell you for two reasons:

1. Enabling Environment: It is easier getting a shop and buying things at affordable prices in the West or the North. Everything in the East is horribly the expensive, and it's for no reason other than the need to make sharp profits. Land, shops, commodities ... A pair of solid sandals (and I mean solid) you can buy for 2k in the North, one wide mouthed Igbotic guy who owns a shop in Aba or Onitsha will tell you 7k, and you'll find out it's not as strong as it looks.

2. Envy: When it comes to business, Igbo people are the most envious set of individuals you'll ever find. Start a business in the North or West and make good profits, nobody will be looking at bringing you down or trying to spoil your market spiritually. Try it in the East and you're a goner.

Any sane businessman will pick where land is cheap, things are easily affordable and where there's value for money.

The East will continue to lag in terms of investments from fellow Easterners until the environment is provided and 419/outrageous prices of land, shops and goods are brought down to their realistic value.

Seriously it's time for Igbo to start developing their region. Sometimes I wonder what would happen to igbo properties in the south West here if the Nigeria go separate ways today. Please can someone enlighten me on possible things to happen to their acquired landed properties here. Thanks

They are businessesmen, traders, industrialists, manufacturers from the South East that has not see Their foot on Lagos or any place in the South West yet their are making a massive return.

You guys think Nigeria started and end in Lagos cheesy Ignorant mofos. South East has the highest numbers of indeginous industries in Nigeria.

It is the home of small medium enterprises (SME) especially In onitsha, aba and nnewi.
