How safe is the home? Igbos are the enemies of themselves. U invest, they kidnap you or ur family members or even kill you in a robbery operation. If you want ur brothers to invest at home, provide security first of all.

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.

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.
Oga stop deceiving Yourself. This your comment is total rubbish.

Many Igbo businessmen have invested massively in the East. Thats why South East has the highest SMEs , especially Anambra state.

You also forget that place like nnewi , onitsha and aba have many indeginous industries.

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

Don’t waste your time on educating those fools! Their position is driven mainly by bigotry and hate, and not by any rational thought process! They’d rather prefer Igbo and other entrepreneurs ignore Alaigbo and take their investments to their (the bigots) own regions....they want Alaigbo to be starved of investments while their own regions grow!

This is all what ‘one Nigeria’ is about.....holding Igbos down, while they use our human and natural resources to grow their own regions!

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

Soon they will buy up d whole of lagos and take over it completely....Lagos will no longer be no mans land, it will become IGBO land

FalseProphet1:
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.



"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"

FalseProphet1, this is a bloody lie
