We Igbos Should Change by Nobody: 8:45pm On Apr 29, 2015
i'm just sick and tired of it...all of it. it makes me sick to the stomach.

What, you might ask? This 'get rich at all cost' altitude of my brothers.

I have been in warri, delta state for my service year. I stayed a whole full year there.

But finally i came back to aba, my hometown.

The first thing i bought in a store, a superglue i bought for N50 was just water. more than 3 quarter of the content was air, and the remaining content was just a slimy liquid that could'nt even glue my fingers together.

I thought that was a mistake, the next morning i went to buy detergent for washing. I bought the Ariel sachet, went home and opened it and you wouldn't believe what i saw. the detergent couldn't even lather.

Throughout my stay in warri, never, not even once did i buy any product that i was not happy with, and just two days in aba, i have bought 2 adulterated products already?

If you ever buy anything in aba, there are 59% chances that it would be fake. I have been to some other states and this is not the case. Same with onitsha. They copy so well that you can barely differentiate.

They way wealth is worshiped in my region is very disgusting. All my friends are into Scam. You can barely find an honest innocent guy here.

During my stay in warri, i found guys that go to farm, do menial jobs and apprenticeship. but here, everyone is feeling way to big. Most graduates are just too lazy to do anything aside yahoo and internet scams. And the most disturbing part is that, nobody cares.

Last year, one of my friend, a very little boy of 19, hit money on yahoo and rented a flat for his parents. They didn't even ask how he got the money.

Most of our brothers that are being sent abroad are even expected to steal. if you do not steal, you are not sharp. 'can't you see chinedu that went to abroad last year and he is back this year already building a 4 story house? '

I am writing this because i am very concerned with the way this is going. What would be our prospects in the future? is this the way to build a stronger society?

Let's call a spade a spade and stop this extreme materialistic tendencies of our people.

Shachris.

You're an Igbo man yet you opened a thread so people from other tribes can throw jibes at your people?

before being an igboman, i am a child of God first, and an honest man. If i see evil, i would speak up, even if it is perpetrate by my kinsmen.

Like the guy that sold his sister for 10k, you would support that, right?

if other nigerians from other regions would stand up and condemn evil, this country would be a better place.

i'm not proving anything to you man. we either make this right today or we might regret in the future.

money is not everything. we igbos should mellow down on our love for money. it's causing a societal decadence that we might never repair in the future.

how old are you? A concerned igbo is talking, who are you to shout him down? Dispute what he said with fact; take sentiment out of it.

Dude the only damage i see here are the saboteurs we have among us, i have 10% battery so i can't type much , boko haram and militants have caused Nigerias far more damages compared to what aba or onitsha boys have done, but i don't see their brothers bashing them so they can get cheap popularity.

Re: We Igbos Should Change by Er0ticAngela(f): 9:31pm On Apr 29, 2015
The OP is very correct. The ibo mans consuming lust for money either by hook or crook is unrivaled.

An ibo man can kill his mother for money rituals - Ndi Ogwu Ego

An ibo man can kidnap his own father for money

An ibo (wo)man can sell his/her baby for money ... I learnt that a one month old baby is sold for two naira fifty kobo at the IsiAlaNgwa baby factory

and your type would be killed in malaysia, south africa or even indonesia because you are so criminal and only after how to make easy money.

i am a good man before i became an igbo man. i don't do crab mentality. i don't follow the crowd simply because they are my kin.

so because boko haram see evil and shut up, we should also do the same. who are boko haram killing? igbos baa?

Who are adulterated products killing? Hausa's baa?
