BUSINESS OWNER PERCENTAGES ACROSS NIGERIA’S GEOPOLITICAL ZONES

South West — 59.8%
North West — 51.0%
South South — 50.8%
North Central — 49.5%
North East — 43.3%
South East — 39.0%

The published data is quite interesting but I wonder the sample size and methodology.

Was it sampled or was it a data from tax agency or corporate affairs commission?

I don't not believe this. Edo State has more business owners than the five southwest states without Lagos.

This data is nonsense.

I am proud of my South West people. We are the real MVPs.

It might be residents and not state of origin or ethnic groups, which south west man does business if not government propelled business and contracts

LOL...

Even those wey e favour no go believe am..

The data is quite revealing.

Of the 59.8% in the Southwest, be sure that at least 10% belongs to the Igbos.

Argue with your ancestors.

We are talking about registered businesses, this one is talking about 2x2 shops. Oga, you need to be registered as a business before you can do business with the government.

According to source.

Stats based of Zone not tribe

Who carried out the research? This is so wrong

The Igbos have the investment in south west .. this is why it's usually empty in Lagos during Christmas because the Igbos close businesses and go back to south east for Christmas .

Edo is not even a match for Oyo State.

I was in Benin city a couple of weeks ago, but the place looks so rough and dilapidated, I kept asking myself, what could possibly have happened over the years. The roads are ok, but not great. Most buildings look quite old. The GRA is meh. Only Airport road (very good), GRA (just okay) and Ring road appear fitting, though I didn't travel far and wide in the city.

Overall, I expected much more of the great Benin city. It is certainly no where near Ibadan, let alone Oyo state, let alone the South West.

Also Edo State only has one city, though I stand to be corrected. Others like Auchi are towns.

The state of origin will give a different picture when checked 😁

Na why dem dey fight to keep Igbos in Nija.

They can't run Lagos on thuggery & Agberoism.

When Nija break the shock Lagos go get will be alarming 😏

You no understand English? The states of origin of owners of business in Nigeria, not where owners reside.

Source is very important.
