Sometimes people ask why are Igbos successful in anything they do.you will realize that there is the spirit to succeed in every igbo.they hate to be last.a typical igbo graduate sees it as a taboo to go back home after NYSC to eat "mama thank u".instead they stay back where ever they served and try to establish, to send back home.this is not the same in other tribes that see nothing wrong in that.Igbos being in to business and education is no a coincidence. The prolonged deprivation from the political centre has forced the igbos in to other means of survival like trade and education. This explains why other tribes can't challenge them.Igbos being more in Lagos is simple maths.the federal gov't deliberately made Lagos sea port the only functional in the country so that the igbos being the once in to import and export business will have to go to Lagos, pay tax and huge import duties to Lagos gov't,establishing there business there due to cost of transport back to east.whereas there are other sea ports close to east that Fed.gov't practically made inactive. This why igbos are more in Lagos..until we chang these policies, there will always be issues in nigeria 2 Likes |

The only thing people don't know or understand about ibos is why they think anything is unique to their tribe. There are hardworking ibos and there are lazy ibos, just like you will see hardworking and lazy folks in any group anywhere in the world. There's absolutely nothing unique to ibos except maybe the language.......and a certain head feature. 3 Likes |

Aigbofa: It is 'Igbo' not 'Ibo'! The 'g' there is very important to how the word sounds! The same 'conies' who say they are 'one Nigeria' with us Igbos, but since independence to date, do not know how to say the name of our tribe correctly. Jokers! 1 Like 2 Shares |
