I thought this thread was created to showcase the progress made so far by small scale Igbo retailers since 2012,,,,,,,,how the Yoruba's high jacked it and turn it to dick measuring among them selves and the Igbo's is what I don't understand.....is it just insecurity, envy or jealoushuh......the op never said that the Igbo's are richer than Yoruba's so why the bruise??intact he didn't mention Yoruba's.
Go through the first page and this time take your time to read the analogy of wasiu and an igbo guy.

If you want me to take you serious, you've got to quote references cos engaging in stats without reference points to the fact that you are don't no what you are doing and since you don't no what you are doing I wouldn't want to follow that path with you.

[s]They brag because you guys always root for their failure. [/s]
You have a bloated sense of self importance. You think everyone is against you when in actual fact everyone is way too busy trying to survive the harsh economic environment that is Nigeria to notice you.

Get over yourselves already.

[s]Bragging is a way of letting you know that you failed in your evil plans towards them. [/s]
Bragging is a way to cover up your inadequacies as a people. Only people suffering from inferiority complex feel the need to brag over and over again.

Ask any competent psychologist and they'll tell you you're trying to compensate for something.

Not only do you brag with inconsequential things, you even exaggerate your "success" and then brag about that.

Who does that?

[s]Plus they are the only group in Nigeria that has earned that right considering everything they have been through.[/s]
And what have they been through?

You fought one war and lost, Nigeria and the world will not hear word again.

Only you have:

1. Persecution complex (the-woe-is-me everyone-is-out-to-get-me attitude)

2. Inferiority complex masquerading as superiority complex. (We are the best tribe in the world, we are the lost Jew)

3. Messianic complex (We dehvelop Lagos, New York, Dubai. Nigeria cannot survive without us, Biafra will set Africa free)

4. Expansionist tendencies (The Niger Delta tribes are part of Biafra).

Blah blah blah...

You guys are a psychologist's wet dream.

Lol, the op posted massive malls only for this village man to be posting supermarkets.

Inferiority complex is really dealing with some people, they always want to measure up to the Igbos. Anything we do, they will jump in and start claiming they have theirs too but they always end up making fun of themselves.

knowledgeable:
.. Plus the so called accommodation, they keep talking about is a skewed one. Right after the civil war, a deliberate skewed policies from successive federal governments were implemented to have Lagos enjoy the monopoly of international seaport, international airport, seat of all major oil companies in Nigeria and etc, therefore imposing an un wellcome forced migration of Igbos into Lagos( Igbos are merchants and will gravitate were those infrastructures are). These are major bounties for them after the civil war of genocide against the Igbos. Those monopolies have become counter productive as they are now hypocritically talking about accommodating Igbos in the SW, but any mention of separation, you will hear them crying about one Nigeria.

They are only accommodating their bounties not Igbos.
Were Igbos more merchants than the Yorubas and the Hausas then? No,of course.What really helped the Igbos in becoming traders this much was the war.They all clinged to the civil service which Nnamdi Azikiwe made sure was dominated by the Igbos.The Yorubas who were in opposition, were totally marginalized.

This thread won't teach that Anambra boy (op) to stop opening useless threads next time.

But you do see Chinese, Europeans, Indians and many other foreign businessmen and entrepreneurs all over Nigeria and Africa.
They all left their much more developed countries to come to your shithole to do business.
Have you bothered to ask yourself or ask them why they do this?
It is the Igbo business men you and folks with small minds will keep criticizing because you don't know any better.

If foreigners from developed countries come to Lagos to set up businesses, why shouldn't an Igbo man?

Keep being a dunce and don't tap into opportunities you see around you.
You mean expatriates or what undecided
I'm talking of the millions of igbos who've ran from their forsaken lands to the SW,even when it means hawking gala and purewater in the streets. The millions who've come to live,give birth,raise their children and even die here.

Igbo are genius in business (no intention of bragging) and will always excel.


A boy from one village will be called to learn trade in Aba or Onitsha (Igba boyi) remember this boy came with nothing but his clothes, but after settling him, six years the boy will become a millionaire (It is never money ritual but patience).


One Wasiyu and Nwokeoma was given the same amount of money to start business in 2013, Nwokeoma invested his money in business and started getting #10000 profit every 3days while Wasiyu used his and do Owambe and carry girls, Now Nwokeoma is riding lexus350 while Wasiyu is walking on foot looking for menial work to do.
