a typical uninformed Igbo who believes 2by2 is better than education n later in life one ignoramus will tell him to come n buy Biafra passport n he will buy

Another fool will tell him Buhari is cloned, since he doesn't know d meaning he will laugh n b happy

Same clown will tell him to drop monthly contribution so trump will come n conduct referendum in Nigeria n d uneducated fool will rush to pay

Then d same mugu will tell him he's going to bring Buhari head n since d uneducated fool doesn't go to school n he doesn't know d implications he will believe

Then another bastard will lock them up for days

U Igbos should know education is better than your ignorance, if u Igbos have a huge literacy level in your region u won't foolishly fall into d hands of these idiots that are leading u

Same foolish mistake your forefathers made is what u are making now

About this same time, Western Nigeria had completed the construction of University of Ife and had the first Television broadcast station in Black Africa. Cocoa House in Ibadan was the first high rise building in West Africa .

But let's ignore all that and see how an Italian company was brought in to knack 2x2 wooden shops on the edge of the river Niger.

You last statement is so incorrect. Nigeria is a major importer of finished goods. No region in Nigeria is an industrial powerhouse by any stretch.

No region produces up to 20% of it's manufactured goods so your boast is very misleading. The manufacturing capacity of the SW or any other region in Nigeria is embarrassing. That you could even boast about it is shocking.
