Why Are Igbos So Successful At Whatever They Do by Ogbonoblog: 7:40am On May 06
It’s no secret that Igbos have a reputation for success in majorly every aspect of life, especially business.

From starting small businesses to challenging major industry players, they seem to have a natural knack for entrepreneurship.

But why is this the case? And how can this success be attributed to the Igbo community as a whole, rather than being misconstrued as the result of “juju” or unethical practices?

To understand the secret behind the Igbo success, it’s important to look at the cultural values and practices that have shaped the community.

You're missing the point.

We are talking group success! The average Igbo man is relatively more successful than any other group. This is a fact!

90% of Igbo are ritualist and that is the reason why their region is turning into evil forest, instead of developing their region they prefer outside cos they knew the consequences of living in such places.

Lol 😂, yet every news about ritual killings all come from the SW especially Ogun.

PS: the highest developing places in current day Nigeria is the SE. You would know this if you've ever left your state.

How is that possible and what meter dis you use to arrive at that. I don't know about other tribes but I know the entire population of igbos is not more successful that my own tribe the Yorubas. I can argue the same for those from NigeriDelta n Hausa.


Na only mouth n noise igbos get no. I know statistics of Igbos I grew up with n can count how many are successful compare to others. In fact I can tell you mone of them have been outstanding n I know lots of igbos. I grew up in Mushin if you care to know.

I can show you around lots of unsuccessful Igbos around here.

Tell us the tribe that is not successful. Stop showing inferiority complex. All other tribes are successful in their own way. Chai! People with low self esteem

Yes Mr shameless tribalistic hatefilled soul,by pushing wheel barrow and cashing out to feed their families 😁

Your Tribalistic hatefilled head would surely prefer they stay idle,sit in the morning playing draft or do yahoo like You instead of hustling legitimately.

Forget the nonsense tribal banters you and your co ipob tribalist dey do,in Real Life Igbo bring in new game in standard of living, business, commerce anywhere they gather. Check the Igbo communities in other States in Nigeria,go to Ghana,Gabon, Guinea Bisau,Togo,Benin Republic etc Igbo are doing well for themselves no capping.

CHARACTERISTIC OF: Narcissistic Personality Disorder
Symptoms may vary from person to person. The most common symptoms include:

1. Being overly boastful, exaggerating one’s own achievements
2. Pretending to be superior to others
3. Lack of empathy for others
4. Looking down on others as inferior
5. Monopolising conversations
6. Impatient, angry, unhappy, depressed or has mood swings when criticized
7. Easily disappointed when expected importance is not given
8. Always craves for “the best” in everything
9. Has a very fragile self-esteem
They:
10. Have an unreasonably high sense of self-importance and require constant, excessive admiration.
11. Feel that they deserve privileges and special treatment.
12. Expect to be recognized as superior even without achievements.
13. Make achievements and talents seem bigger than they are.
14. Be preoccupied with fantasies about success, power, brilliance, beauty or the perfect mate.
15. Believe they are superior to others and can only spend time with or be understood by equally special people.
16. Be critical of and look down on people they feel are not important.
17. Expect special favors and expect other people to do what they want without questioning them.
18. Take advantage of others to get what they want.
19. Have an inability or unwillingness to recognize the needs and feelings of others.
20. Be envious of others and believe others envy them.
21. Behave in an arrogant way, brag a lot and come across as conceited.
22. Insist on having the best of everything — for instance, the best car or office.

At the same time, people with narcissistic personality disorder have trouble handling anything they view as criticism. They can:

1. Become impatient or angry when they don't receive special recognition or treatment.
2. Have major problems interacting with others and easily feel slighted.
3. React with rage or contempt and try to belittle other people to make themselves appear superior.
4. Have difficulty managing their emotions and behavior.
5. Experience major problems dealing with stress and adapting to change.
6. Withdraw from or avoid situations in which they might fail.
7. Feel depressed and moody because they fall short of perfection.
8. Have secret feelings of insecurity, shame, humiliation and fear of being exposed as a failure.
