Remove Lagos, there's no much difference between SW and Somalia.

ProudlyLagos:
be deceiving yourself, yet non of your 5sh!tty state is as economically viable as Ibadan……what economic activities is going on in owerri aside from hotels? What about Enugu? Your regional capital, they can’t even boast of portable water not to talk of industries.

Aside from onitsha and aba,what other commercial city do you have in SE? You seem to be jubilating over this while reality hits differently, even the trend of migration still show Sw is the economic capital of the country, if I were you I will take this stats with a pinch of salt

ukukaegbu:
Aba
Enugu
Owerri
Onitsha

And they are sitting at home doing nothing, according to the sophisticated morons

wirinet:
Stati-nonsense. How can Jos and Aba have better economy than Ibadan, Abeokuta and Asaba? Jos that has been taken over by Fulani Herdsmen, and Onitsha that has been ravaged by IPOB. Even Maiduguri that's Boko Haram territory is said to have better economy than most southern capitals.

Here is a list of states with the highest IGR in Nigeria. This fairly represent states with cities with best economies, and not those states being ravaged by terrorists.

nedu666:
Which best economy. With fuel at 860, inflation at 32% and wide spread poverty. Abegi

wirinet:
And you know how many billionaires in Ibadan? Yoruba millionaire and billionaires do not make as much noise as their Igbo counterparts. Not every billionaires dey show off like Obi Cubana and Co.

T9ksy:
I don't need to humble myself to know WHY igbos are all over yorubaland like locusts yet they keep chanting ," yorubas are igbophobic "!

Even the north where your obdurate heads were resetted through genocidal acts during the last un/civil war, you admitted above, how you lot are (back) there in sizeable numbers.

It's not rocket science............ neither is it a sacred secret, ratther......it's simply, economic migration!!!

QED

Godsonkemz:
Wayo figures. How could owerri without a manufacturing industry let alone a reputable oil industry be leading pH with oil industries, chemical and manufacturing industries.

kettykin:
At the rate those 4 cities are growing, they might be at par with European cities within the next 10 years. One thing I beg igbos is let's not get into another unprovoked war particularly seeing the way 2027 is tilting towards a Russia vs NATO melodrama playing out in Africa.

Also igbos who have cross N1B turnover should consider building a business branch or investing in Agricultural in the east.

Amotolongbo:
It meant to say Osogbo, instead of Ogbomoso.
There have been many times Ogbomoso is confused for Osogbo

wirinet:
You need to go to Asaba to see small Dubai. Most people from IPOB ravaged states are trooping into Asaba to live and invest. Asaba does not have the sit-at-home rubbish.
My wife just returned from Asaba last week, and she is thinking of opening a business there. He senior brother just launched a business in Asaba.

stuffs2002:
Yet the whole south east looks like a war ravaged south sudan

IyfeNamikaze:
Yeah I was waiting for your comment and I knew it was going to be filled with bitterness, jealousy and cries.

Ibadan is not more economically viable than the entire SE states, it's not even more Economically viable than Anambra according to the statistics by budgetIT, so stop lying . Yes with only hotel business they are able to overshadow the entire South west apart from Lagos that's being dominated by South East people.

Lol... So it's only Onicha and ABA that you know? You don't know about Enugu and it's Ogbete market, New heaven market etc?
You keep proving beyond every reasonable doubt how you don't know anything. Ignorant fellow.

The reason why SE people are migrating to SW is because the competition in ala igbo is already stiff, so we're branching out to SW which is the New frontier to dominate the markets and completion there too, and truly we're doing a remarkable job, Dominating both home and abroad.

Shey you were spreading lies about how igbo Land is abandoned with empty houses everywhere? So tell how is it that an abandoned region is still richer than SW? You see how your lies don't hold up well with Facts?

Make e pain you well well.

Broveens42:
Lol. The way you guys underrate this owerri eeh.

Ph city has nothing. where you have top oil companies are at the off shores of other LGA'S in Rivers State.

Whereas you have the Nigeria's largest gas company, few kilometers from owerri city center and also oil(on shore); by next year, owerri will sit pretty 2nd on the log.

NB: the revenue generated from hospitality industry in owerri, per anum, runs in billions.
