Is The Igbo Man Wasting Money, Stupid Or Making His Place Fantastic? by ariesbull(op): 5:19pm On Dec 19, 2024
A Nigerian man based in Japan build a mini Las Vegas in Owerri. Sincerely speaking, the capital city of Imo state is becoming a choiced destination for fun seekers every weekend.

Why spending scarce foreign currency in the name of traveling oversea for a holiday while you can book hotels in Owerri and spend two weeks in two different luxury hotels in the city of Owerri and still get the same treatment you could have get in oversea hotels.

Is it not surprising that despite the clamor for people to invest in other economic ventures instead of hotels, the hotels keep springing up daily in the city of Owerri.

I believe if the hotels in Owerri are not getting patronages as expected, other prospective investors would have considered investing their money in other sectors. But as long as hotels in Owerri are usually fully booked during the weekends despite the high number of hotels in that city, more hotels will keep on springing up daily in Owerri city.

I love it when people come back from overseas to replicate in their fatherland the type of things they have been enjoying in developed world. When you look at this hotel, you would see things that would make you believe that the owner lives in Japan.

With the police harassing innocent people up and down with the threats of Tiger base just because they want to rip them off

Anyone coming to Owerri must keep money aside for police settlement. The police in Imo state as a whole is a public menace.

If you don't have money to settle the police it doesn't matter if you're driving a car on in a public vehicle. They will forcefully drag you down, take you to one corner and force you to pathaway with millions or hundreds of thousands.

If you don't have money... Flee from Owerri I use God beg you! That place is a nightmare for youths. If you refuse, you might never be heard from again. Many people that are considered missing are in Tiger base.

Nothing wrong in having fun. I only find it pathetic when people chase fun without first putting in the work....and many people in this part of the world like that. If you look at this edifice and the myriad of hotels and fun spots, they are besieged by people who haven't really exerted themselves enough to merit relaxation. It seems the excessive need for "fun" is like a cover for an emptiness within.
For those who truly work hard and/or smart legally, (because I know some halfwit will want to try to be clever by half by throwing in the lazy cliche "work smart not hard", to justify indloence and crime), they are the ones who feel the real fulfilment of fun.

Igbos know how to make and enjoy money and the best in terms of quality of life not only in Nigeria but Africa . Travel to SW with exception of Lagos FG and Igbos contributed greatly in developing as a former federal capital, Northern and other African countries you will understand that British racists F- ucked Igbos up by forcing them into a country with people with very low inferior IQ that can’t develop themselves and the reason they try to mask their failures, incompetency with Igbo jealousy

I encourage them to consider investing in cities like Dubai to ensure continuity and security of their wealth. While investing in the East can significantly contribute to strengthening the regional economy, creating employment opportunities, and enhancing the liquidity pool, diversifying investments in a stable global hub like Dubai offers financial security and a reliable safe haven for long-term growth.


Very soon there will be a shift of investment from real estate to start ups , venture capital, angel investors etc

If it is a hotel, I say not a waste of money. However, it is different story if the structure is a family home.

Years ago, we used to have people from Lagos fly to Owerri on Fridays and get back to Lagos on Sunday mornings. The purpose was to enjoy Owerri nightlight just for 2 nights. Unfortunately, the Ipob madness spoilt everything.

Beautifying the East is not a bad idea. However, the underlying economy should also be developed as well as security ensured.

For a start, a website where South Eastern-manufactured goods are advertised with worldwide shipping and escrow payment option will be more beneficial than all the hotels in Owerri put together. Unfortunately, most of the youths are too foolish to see this. They are busy with Ipob, betting, ogwu ego and insulting people with divergent opinions.

I remember , I used to fly to Owerri for weekends just to relax and chill out with some few friends. During the time of rochas, Owerri never slept, and Owerri hotels were always fully booked on Friday nights , i had to use hotelsng app to reserve rooms and one more thing there was zero crime. I used to step out of the hotel room by 1Am to get suya and drinks or taxi to the clubs. Now i don't know what took over Owerri

You make a very good point..only the lowlifes waste their times online and offline on foolish superior fights. There is so much potential our economies can achieve but we have lazy people governing us and diverting people's attention from serious issues. Last time, someone posted a story of Air Peace going from Anambra to London and another person said it's a stopover flight. They took it to a tribal jingoism level and I was just smh at the pettiness of these folks. For God sake, where are there no stopovers? What is the amount of traffic from Anambra to London that will make Air Peace skip Lagos where most traffic is from? Their level of thinking is ridiculous and offers no way forward but foolish boasting and pride.

I don't know if it is poverty (of the mind and money) but it beats me that these folks can't see that the elites are united at the top in living a good life regardless of their religion, tribe or any of these things they use to divide them. Whether it's the North or South, Africa or abroad, it's the same everywhere. Tribalism, racism and other extremisms are usually shared by people at the bottom of the pyramid.
