If we pull out our investments from Ghana, can the economy survive it? They should ask Lagosians about what happened in the stock market when we nearly pulled out.

Up till now we are still receiving thank you messages simply because we later stayed back.

Can you just shush it? What investment are you talking about? Simply respect your host and stop creating unnecessary problem for others because of your useless ego

I KNOW THEY ARE JEALOUS.



THAT IS HIM WITH THE NEW PRESIDENT OF GHANA





https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=odeQSVJNW1A

I will hold your hand and say this…. Ghanaians have the right to allow or not allow any chieftaincy on their land they do not like, their home, their rules. The president you mentioned is a particularly diplomatic man and has a deep love for Nigerians since he himself acknowledged his upbringing in Yorubaland and love for the culture (feel free to look that up). No one is jealous of anything, why risk such close allies with the usual encroachment mentality and lousy attitude. If they say they do not want, release a statement and explain your intentions and apologize for any confusion earlier caused by a boastful video of how Igbos are going to buy up more land and create their own community. That’s what true diplomacy means, I have met a lot of Ghanaians in my travels and I will tell you, unlike you, they do not worship money. Respect them and you will get the same in return. But I guess even that might be too much for folks with little to no decent upbringing.

Evilthoughts:
Nigeria won't be Eldarado without you but it will have some peace without noisy victim mentality people who make excuses about victimization because they have failed to dominate in politics because of their uncouth tongue and immature way of handling things.

Whatever makes you have an erection is welcomed but I have just told you in simple terms how to make them stay away from your Nigeria but I know as you usual, you can't survive without them and will still want to go into another war just to keep them with you

Can’t survive without them? Check the migration patterns in Nigeria. Agricultural sector, technological sector, banking. Literally younger folks have been joining your fights to leave, but even your people aren’t capable of voting in leaders that will fight for your cause. Trust me, it will be a beautiful day when you lots leave. When you carry your worn out bags out of the east and come to trade in the west, do you trade exclusively only with Igbos? Or are these same people you so much despise not your consumer base? You are not as important in the wider scheme of things as you think, just loud and wrong.
Speaking of “as Usual” aren’t you the ones dropping of starvation in a war you started? Now that’s not very smart, is it?

iconicceo:
God bless you, you asked the same question I’ve been asking. This guy go around with beads and crown and entourage behaving like a royal prince in another man’s country, now boasting of acquiring 50 hectares of land to build Igbo village and you want the people to be happy with you.

This guy has been masturbating on this thread more than checking up for himself o, wait, why does this pain you specially and don't you have other things you do with your life? Haba joblessness is real o

franchasng:
It's really funny.


It's not as if the so called Igbo cultural and traditional leaders in their communities are forcing them to pay tax or follow Igbo culture or dragging land with them oh. Every square meter of land an Igbo man own outside Igbo land, he legally bought it from the owner yet after selling lands to Igbos when they are in need, instead of being grateful, they will turnaround to start attacking and malign Igbos for buying lands from them to build and contribute to the development of their communities which they don't ever do for us in our own Igbo region but will rather give one million reasons why they can't invest in Igbo region, odiegwu oh

did anyone force you to come and buy land? What is the value of your potopoto land compared to Yoruba land? If yorubaland was not safe and secure for investment,would anyone think of buying land? People only invest in a viable and secured environment and not on emotion

Nobody will leave a friendly and viable environment to go invest in an hostile and ipob terrorised environment where people are forced to sit at home every Monday…investment decisions are not made based on emotion…SE is an hostile environment and non viable that’s why you have indigent of the place deserting it for a more prosperous and viable region which SW guarantee and that’s why it is the choice location for investors

No sensible business man will overlook that and settle for a ipob terrorised region even if the land is free btw proudly Lagos

You don't migrate because everyone knows how insecure you are. You are not courageous enough to reside outside your house in Nigeria. Now, I'll tell you what is smart. Your whole life depends on what government can do for you but your dullness makes you support the dullest amongst you into your leadership and afterwards, you resort to Selling off your landed inheritance to those who hunger almost finished in a war, just to japa to UK. And in your smartness, you turn around to envy those who bought your land and are developing it. As usual, you give it some tribal colouration of taking over your space, Mr smartness, did anybody put gun on your head to sell off your inheritance?

Hmmm 🧐 calm down princess. I know it’s hot but drink some tea. In just one post you said they are scared to leave their house and immediately contradicted yourself by saying they sell their properties to Japa. There is literally Yoruba streets in UK and US. So you also blame them for selling their inheritance to you? And they also dislike you? this argument is just top tier comedy. i travel a lot to south east Asia for work, i see a lot of Nigeria group and trust me, even the locals in those countries can spot the difference, from the lousy attitude, inability to assimilate and appreciate host cultures and of course the criminality that attracts attention as if you are the only groups living there. The word courageous and cowardice is something I have found your people are very fond of and it’s always deployed in the most wrong way, why not use some of those courage and braveness to develop your homeland into something people will want to sell their inheritance in Yoruba land just to visit? Why is it always deployed for nefarious activities across Asia?

NSK4U:
Nobody asked for your support, just steer clear off or continue complaining of being dominated and writing endless propaganda to discredit Igbos, since that's all you can do

No Nigerian tribe is writing anything propaganda to describe any other tribe!
But when people/we travel outside, everybody MUST respect the sensibilities, culture, tradition, history and practice of the host communities even if we marry their girls, buy land and build houses there. Simple!

franchasng:
It's a culture. Oyimbo even join Igbos in celebrating it in different European countries, Asian countries, Australia, New Zealand and America. Go on Facebook and watch the videos, very entertaining, only black Africans now see it as an attempt to dominate and take over their land which started from Yorubas.


It's social media that spread it and other black African countries are now copying the Yorubas out of black people's insecurity and foolishness.


Those title carry no weight, they are just ceremonial and it's just among the Igbos communities.



If Igbos do something wrong outside Igbo land, I will be the first to call them out but this very issue is not one of such. They are making unimportant thing to look so important.


There is a popular adage in Igbo culture which the whiteman also collaborated right from colonial era; Igbo enweghi Eze (Igbos have no king)


Igbos don't have much reverence for traditional rulers and title holders like the Yorubas, Hausas, Fulanis, etc. Igbo title holders are mostly ceremonial, they carry no weight or influence among Igbos, only few who are first class kings of ancient Igbo kingdoms carry some level of influence but not compared to that of Yorubas, Hausas, Fulanis, etc, it's a cultural thing.


So this news is borne out of envy, jealousy, envy and unjust hatred towards a people trying to promote their culture outside their ancestral community to give their people a sense of belonging and cultural identity, it is nothing more than that.


I am sure the only thing the Ghanaians are angry about is the said man's purchase of plenty hectares of lands he said he wanted to use to build an Igbo community in Ghana to promote Igbo culture; as insecure black people, they found it intimidating that Igbos want to take over their community, and this they learnt from Yorubas via the social media which makes local news and events to travel globally within seconds in this our generation.

Dont compare the culture and tradition of the white man with that of Africa.
There are no kingdoms in most European countries, except a few like K, Netherlands etc.
Can anyone go to UK and call himself a ''king'' or ''queen''?
In Africa, once you call yourself a ''king'', it means you have ''kingdom''

There is no justification for this pettiness at all, it's shameful for we black Africans.


There is no big deal in this thing, they are making the said man unnecessarily popular

There would be no problems at all if he calls himself ''Nze Ndigbo'' of Ghana! Nobody in Ghana would worry if he calls himself ''Eze Ndigbo'' or ''Oba Yoruba'' or ''Sarkin Hausa'' because the Ghanaians don't necessarily understand what those words mean in the local language.
And he could also introduce himself as the ''Leader'' or ''Head'' or ''Chairman'' of the Igbo, Yoruba, Hausa community etc.
But once you add the English title ''King'', then it creates a different meaning entirely because issues of kingship, kingdoms, land, heritage, are very sensitive because of the peculiar attachment to history, culture, tradition, kinship tussles, kingdoms etc. There cannot be two ''Kings'' or ''Roya Majesty'', or ''Royal Highness'' in the same village/town in most places in Africa, no matter how honourary the title may be. It is an affront and a disrespect to the real king of the land, his people and their culture and history.
People must learn that in Africa, a ''king'' very is dear to his people and a symbol of unique identity of the people and their ownership and dominion over the land they occupy
We cant just export everything we do at home to another man's country. We have to learn where to draw the line.

I hope they would learn to invest and build in their region than outside because it's not safe doing so. The Ghana experience is a sad 😭 one.

So you think that when you buy land from someone, the person should be grateful to you because you have done him a favour? Is this how you think?
And when they refuse to sell the land to you, you still complain that they hate you that is why they refused to sell to you?
Buying land in another man's village or country does not mean you must not respect and obey their laws, heritage, culture, tradition etc.
Know this and know peace, or no peace, whether in Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, India, Kenya, South Africa, Ghana, Lagos, Kano, Enugu etc.

ZoomTravels:
To be fair, you do have a lot in common with them historically and genetically.

Yeah, I get that we're not cowards, and we tend to prosper and increase wherever we find ourselves like the children of Israel, and that can be intimidating for anyone.

Problematic race.

I find it insulting if any form of coronation is done bearing king of any kind in another man's land. Elect your representative without attaching any ceremonial kingship name to it outside your land.

Yes its a favour especially when you are buying land in an undeveloped community to build.

I know how many times a Baale in one community in Lagos sent emissaries to me back then telling me to come and buy land in their community, that they are welcoming and love Igbos because Igbos bring peace and development anywhere they go to.


But here you are forming what I don't know as if you have bought any piece of land outside your region before in your entire life, mstwwwww


If you know how Yoruba traditional leaders and community leaders beg Igbos they believe are rich to come buy land and invest in their community, you won't be here writing this jargons.


Your President spend most of his time junketing around the world begging investors to come to Nigeria and invest and here you are typing what I don't know. Do you think it's easy to make money and decide to invest it somewhere? How many of your kinsmen have invested in Southeast if its that easy? Its not easy to convince investors; be it land buyers or industry owners. If you know how many real estate agents that drop flyers at one of my offices, you won't be saying what you just said

franchasng:
Will what be welcomed in Southeast?

Why do you guys always say this nonsense?


So if a Yoruba man goes to Owerri and buy hectares of land to build an estate and name it Oodua people estate where he have areas dedicated to displaying Yoruba cultures and tradition, that it won't be welcomed in Igbo land how please? Haven't you seen Malaysia, South Africa, Accra, Mozambique, Abuja, etc estates in different Southeast cities?


I have made a challenge here in the past, I have a lot of lands in Owerri, Awka, Enugu and Asaba that I am looking for serious buyers, any Yoruba, Hausa, etc interested should dm me, I don't care the person's tribe, and so are many others who have lands for sale.


They will see the adverts and look the other way, and then come online to claim Igbos don't sell land to none Igbos, says who? The only land that you cannot be able to buy in Igbo land is people village compound where their ancestors lived and got buried, Igbos see it as a taboo selling such lands, but any other land, especially those in the town and city areas are up for highest bidder; be it Igbo, Ijaw, Hausa, Yoruba, etc, but unfortunately most other tribes in Nigeria have phobia of investing outside their region (minus Lagos, Abuja and maybe Portharcourt), many have closed mind and fear of investing in real estate outside their region except Igbos who don't care, they invest and build anywhere they live or hear or like.


An average Igbo man love building, it's in us, we build anywhere we have someone that convinces us; the man in question married a Ghanaian woman and the woman is even misleading him into investing most of his wealth in Ghana and we Igbos are not screaming foul play that a Ghanaian woman has stolen our brother and his wealth.


Me, most of the places I own lands and projects, I don't live in those cities, but mostly convinced by close friends or relatives, but other tribes are not like us, they don't feel comfortable investing outside their region and they will come online and be lying against Igbos that Igbos don't sell lands to none Igbos, says who?



Please don't let them brainwash you.


Even most of the Igbos you see that own mansions outside Igbo land also own mansions in their hometowns and state capitals, if not for social media exposing all those facts, most of you would believe Igbos only invest outside Igbo land but it's also another lie. For most Igbos, before they build a house in the city, they have built one in their hometown or state capital, silently without noise

Where has it ever be seeing and heard you sell land in your eastern states to any other tribes apart from your own let alone 50 hectares? even dangote couldn't get 1 plot of your land in your ala Igbo let alone 10 hectares you people are so clannish and please leave Yoruba out of your discussion because it isn't yoruba protesting in that ghana because of your domineering attitude.

If all is being fair they are even the most welcoming as you can't try little of what you do in their land in the north or south south you can't even take it in your own land yet it is them you disrespect the most as the yoruba adage implies"eni owo ka
lan le idi mo"

As someone implied up there accountability is not in your forte always claiming being victimized whereas it is you who does the victimization why only una everywhere? Malaysia,south Africa,India,Ghana, Thailand,Vietnam etc?you need to look inward

Leave Yoruba out of your mouth "ma je ki n won e lepe"Yoruba isn't the only tribe in Nigeria we still have over 249 other ethnic groups unfortunately the yorubas you love to hate it is only their land you can be domiciled outside of your potopoto region yet you pay them back with ingratitude no be dem tell you to be constituting nuisance every where you reside their are other Nigerian ethnic groups in Lagos,ghana,south africa, thailand,India,malaysia yet you won't hear of them because they aren't lousy nor garruicious since I have been reading your comment when I joined this forum some years ago all your submissions have always being about the yoruba tribe you can't even mask your hatred!!

So true, not a lot of Israeli in prisons in south east Asia tho.Js. Ironically the Israelis fought and bled bravely for the creation of their country not run away like cowards. I would rather be Japanese who despite having the strongest passport in the world would rather build their country and also establish abroad. Now that’s true power, true success worthy of intimidation than been drug peddlers all in the name of being “brave”.

Spiff20:
Ghanaians are being insecure for nothing. [b]There's nothing wrong with a group of people in a foreign land forming an association and appointing a leader. [/b]Or is there no freedom of association in Ghana?

Per the bolded, why does he need a throne or a crown?

That suggests he is more than a leader, it suggests he is a king and a king should have a kingdom. He then announced that he had bought land and he was building a village with Igbo schools and the likes.

He even said in an interview that he had been inaugurated into a traditional council over there which I am certain is him playing with words and is false.

I can see why they feel offended even though the reaction in some cases has been over the top.

He has made money, he doesn't need to make himself out to be anything else. You can be an Eze Ndigbo without all the nonsense adornments and pronouncements.

The usual lie Yorubas tell among themselves to justify their cowardice and inability to explore other regions out of fear of the unknown.


I am challenging you and your brothers again, the ones who can afford it anyway, I have a total of 12 plots of lands in different parts of Owerri Imo state, I also have around 6 plots in Awka Anambra state, and 8 in Enugu Enugu state capital, and the lands are in very good and choice locations that will be good for school, Church, shopping mall, fast food restaurant or mini factories, if you guys are interested, DM me, we can use Seun as escrow to let you guys know that I am serious.


The ones at Owerri ranges from; 7million to 12million, 25m to 35million (this one is near new Owerri and along Portharcourt road).

Awka own is at the heart of Awka, another very close to UNIZIK junction.


Enugu own, one is very costly (around 90million) because it's at a choice location at Independence Layout Enugu), some at Abapa Nike, etc. I have at Uzo Uwani, this one is good for school cos it's a bit out of town.


I have at Asaba, around Direct Labour, Okpanam and one along Lagos-Onitsha expressway.


I am seriously looking for buyers for some, if any Yoruba person or any other tribe is interested and ready to pay, please DM me or mention me.


Stop peddling lies based on hearsay, you ought to know that those things are pure lies told several decades ago against Igbo people not selling land in their region. Like I said before, the only land you cannot be able to buy even if you are Igbo too is a family's village compound or ancestral land where they reside in the village where their forefathers and relatives have been buried, nobody sell such land in Igbo land, it's a culture, but every other land is buyable if you can afford it cos lands in Southeast are costly due to competition. Land in my village is costlier than land in Ajah Lagos, my village that have no industry but land is that costly due to competition, to see available lands in my village is even hard cos most have been bought by rich families keeping it for their children and family members to build family house in future.



Where I am developing a property in Owerri, one of my neighbors is a Yoruba man working with an oil firm in Imo state, but here some of you are coming online to say what they know nothing about based on lies they heard from another person that heard from another person that also heard from someone that said someone told him too

I see we are moving the goal post but it’s ok. There are tons of Yoruba living in the north and the south south. They are doing well and not bragging and dragging stuff with the locals. Now, if they are not moving en masse to your region, that’s a “You” problem. If there is anything for them to do there, we will see people escaping from their brown roofs to run to the paradise on earth you have over there. Take it from someone that had to spend a month in Enugu being tasked to open up a new warehouse branch there, I will not wish it on anyone I like, from vendors on the street literally selling fake drinks, the water shortage, literally seeing cowardly locals switch to native tongue when they are about to swindle you, underage sexwork in the multiple hotels opened by nefarious individuals. There is more to a city than just a select few building structures everywhere. There is a soul to the Yoruba cities that you know you will never be able to recreate, there is nothing wrong with staying home and building it to where we will want to come, you really don’t have to be forever leaches
