Move to Abuja. It is a more serene environment than Lagos, and Abuja has a popular electronics market that you can sell from, plus the areas around that electronics market, I think Iddo, has cheap housing that you can start from and grow from there.

You could even come to Abuja alone, set up your small electro shop and see how the business is moving. If it goes well, you can then bring your family over.

Another advantage is that Abuja is not too far from Enugu (about 6hrs drive), just pass over Venue and Kogi, and you'll be in Abuja, unlike Lagos which is very far away with a very different culture.

But Abuja is expensive. Cost of living is high here. But is still Ok.

He can move to Abuja. Then, buy electronic good directly from an importer from Onitsha.

Dey your dey

Only if u have travelled beyond Lagos and see how stupid and wasteful ur life has been.

Shame.

Same land ur parents have no stake in.

so the ifeayin guy that want to leave Enugu for Lagos, is not wasting his life right? You expect people to leave a region where everyone is migrating to for economic purposes and go to a barren region because you have a job for him in your barren alaibo right?

It’s high time you clowns start applying sense In this stale argument of asking people to travel to SE,there is always a reason people migrate from there comfort zone, I’m sure if alaibo was economically viable, you won’t be here in lagos

Sw aside from Lagos is the economic powerhouse of the country and it’s no surprise people troop in every day and yes I have been to SE and it is nothing compared to Sw in term of economic viability and this is the truth y’all don’t want to admit because of pride btw proudly Lagos before you start asking if Lagos is my state of origin like it is part of Biafra land

I have never seen any Yoruba saying he wants to relocate to igboland for anything

Them swear for me?
To do what exactly

Jakpon:
Can someone point me to one single Yoruba man, who after completing his University Education or after learning a trade or craft, decided to relocate to iboland in search of a job or green pasture.

I have also never seen an educated Hausa Man, I don't mean Aboki Mai Suya or Mai Ruwa. I mean an Hausa man who graduated and then decided to relocate to iboland in search of a job.

It is only the ibos that keep running away from iboland. There must be something vile and terrible about iboland which makes all the able bodied men over there always want to run away from their region

Unizik has more than 40 Yoruba staffs... All full time staffs... Did they all skl in UNN..? Donu know my best friend Ade,enis a tailor in awka Anambra state..? He came there after graduation from yabatech through a friend after going through Lagos state free skill acquisition program ...

He has bought a car over there as he is so good at it and even has a sewing skl....
.u sit down in Lagos and imagine that Nigeria is all about Lagos.. that nobody makes it outside Lagos... Travel my man, travel...

70% of all computer services guyz at Bamboo at unizik guyz are Yoruba, tunji told me he never taught he could make his first million in Igbo land.. he only started in just 1years.. he now has 3workers...

Sit down there computer warrior, dnt move around ND look for opportunity, fold Lagos ND b eating...

No, Abuja is not expensive. You cut your coat according to size! I've lived in Enugu and Abuja, and when I compared the costs and opportunities of both places, Enugu town was the more expensive place.

Abuja has a lot of suburbs around popular markets and government parastatals, where sellers and employees could get affordable housing without breaking the bank. That's what Lagos won't give you.

Wickedfact:
Better.
Enough of ingrates coming to pollute Lagos.

It is ingrate like you from Oyo, ogun state etc that is polluting Lagos from your criminal activities.

According to Lagos state commissioner of justice. 80,% of criminal caught in Lagos are from Oyo, ogun , kwara etc .

Go back to your state and stop polluting Lagos with your criminal activities.

Simply because Yorubas are not business people, neither are they travelers. Igbos don't go to Lagos because it's called Lagos, they go their majorly for businesses. Igbos full Asia, Europe, and America doing their business not just Lagos.

And note you, even if a Yoruba man decides to travel down to East to business, he will find it very difficult to stand, this is because every angle of the any state in the East has been covered by an Igbo man or woman in business, that's why they even go beyond their states to locate other places.

Bro, stay in Enugu and be creative business has advanced use the social media too. Lagos has its own challenges the high cost of thing housing and rent, taxes and including government bias sometimes will humble you

Why must it be Lagos? There are other states that can favour you. I have a friend who does your kind of business, he relocated from Obajana in Kogi state to Asaba in Delta State and he's giving us good report. Just do your survey and find a peaceful place where businesses thrive.

Please stay in your region /zone. It's better for you there. We are tired of people coming here, disrespecting and insulting us. Try harder in your region , you can make it there. Er fiwa sile.

he is not going to ibadan,Ogun state, onto state, osun state.. he is going to a former capital city.

With the population of Igbos in Lagos are their still people in Igbo land?

Just asking

Dbegining:
Like someone once said, invest in Lagos at your own peril.

Lagos is lawless especially when it comes to anyone thats not Yoruba. Can you withstand the issues with agberos?

Can you withstand the tribal discrimination?

Those two things can cripple your business faster than any economic factor will. So, again, invest in Lagos at your own peril.

If you want to have a true taste of tribal discrimination in business, go to the East and try to run a business as a non-indigene…..

The other tribe that welcomes you with open arms into their fold without bias is the North apart from the West.

Why you fail to realize that beats me.

It is common sense, you will find diverse tribes in large numbers in these places but will never find such numbers in the East!

When we were young our parents used to tell stories of how they eat people in igboland...

Ifeanyifrans:
Hello friend, I need your advice. Due to low sales, is it wise if I relocate from Enugu to Lagos to start up a business (electrical/electronic)? Am married with 2 kids. I'll be in the comment section. Thanks

If you are good with vehicle electrical. I can give you a job in a company.
