Why Are Nigerian Youths Not Migrating To The Eastern Region For Work,etc? by LikeAking: 9:31pm On Feb 16, 2022
The Igbo region which is the eastern part of Nigeria has many potentials,opportunities, wealth, etc. Yet the igbo region is not a migration destination for Nigerians from other regions.

In summary why are Nigerians from other regions not migrating to the eastern part of Nigeria for work, money etc, the way the easterners migrate to other regions?

Are Nigerians scared of the east?

Is there an eastern phobia/ Igbo phobia in the country?
I have been observing this trend for a long.

I stand to be corrected.

You cannot eat your cake and have it. All FG infrastructures are located in Lagos and North. So the net migration.

The fear that they might get cannibalised.

That aside, they're not good accomodators in that side, very sectional.

When a rusted roof, mud house dweller from obomoso makes an ignorant comment, informed people will only shake their heads. The number of hausas, yorubas, Cameroonians and Togo people etc in Owerri alone is mind boggling. Ask building contractors and pop people how far? What about the hundreds of yoruba girls moving down to the East on a daily basis to hawk agbo concussion? On Fridays alone, the number of Northerners that will flocking along the road in their babanriga will make you wonder if you're in Kano. But if you think the educated ones will stand any chance contesting for jobs in a region that has massive graduate turn over annually then it shows you're dumb.

Lagos was former capital. Built by all. If yorubas claim that they built lagos, why have they not repeated the same feat in other Yoruba states.

Those that mean Lagos isn't south west any more, you should try that in Abuja been the current capital.

There are probably as many Hausas in the East now as there are Igbos in the North. While Igbos are no longer moving to the North to live like they used to in the past, Northerners on the other hand are now moving down East in large numbers. And I'm not talking about fruit sellers, gate men and shoe menders but faily rich ones. I have several of them as clients. One recently brought his wife down here and she doesn't understand any word in English. I usually see others in banks too making transactions. A Hausa woman who is my client too saw me in my car in traffic and was greeting me and I responded respectfully too. One thing I like about the ones here in the East is their easy going nature and friendliness which makes me wonder why we don't get along nationally.

Igbos are not as accommodating as other tribes. Else, how could one justify the fact that the population of Igbos living in Kano State alone is greater than that of all non-igbos living in the SE?

Every community in Igboland has people from all over africa. In my immediate place behind and infront of my house, we have 3 people from benin that came to do construction work, 1 togolese tailor, 1 cameroonian tailor and an uncountable number of northerners. And this is a rural area. Igbos and northerners live with each other and interact more than Igbo and Yoruba but because Yoruba and Igbo people are loud on the internet you won't know.

They will start telling you there are billions of Yoruba in the South East. But the fact is, unless if you are transferred, nobody wants to go there.

You have been observing this trend with your NL account because you obviously haven't been to east to see the influx of northerners on a daily basis. Especially Imo state
