Igbo Must Return Home To Invest – Umahi, Ohanaeze by Masterclass32(op): 11:33am On Sep 23, 2020

The Ebonyi State Governor, David Umahi; and the President-General of Ohaneze Ndigbo Worldwide, Chief Nnia Nwodo, on Tuesday reiterated the need for Ndigbo in diaspora to return home and invest towards economic development of the region.

The two Igbo leaders, who spoke in Abakaliki on Tuesday, on the occasion of the Ebonyi Business Forum, which held at the Ecumenical Centre, said the way and manner Ndigbo continued to overlook the investment opportunities abound in the zone was partly responsible for the slow pace of economic development in the region.

The two leaders insisted that the situation must change if the region was ready to take its rightful place in the country.

Speaking on the business opportunities in Ebonyi State, Umahi noted that his administration had made efforts in repositioning the state to welcome and accommodate all kinds of investors in the state.

He said, “Ebonyians and Ndigbo in general should visit and invest in any sector of their interest. All the necessary environments that aided the growth of businesses have been provided in the state.”

Nwodo applauded the Igbo investors from Lagos State who were in the state for investment purposes, saying with the level of infrastructural development in Ebonyi, the state would soon become the economic hub of the entire South-East.

He said, “It is said a good wealth is the one that reaches home. I am aware that Igbo registered voters in Lagos are more than three million people.

“But during the elections, they are reminded that Lagos is not their father’s land. When things like that happen, it reminds you that you come from somewhere; and the need to go home. We have to develop Alaigbo, and turn it into what Catalonian is to t Spain, and what Berlin is to Germany,”

Absolute truth!!
Igbos must bring their investments home and leave only warehouses and stores outside our region. If we bring 70% of our Investments home, SE will automatically become the most industrialized region in Nigeria.

Too much talk.

Just create the enabling environment, create modern housing layouts for those interested in real estate, create modern industrial layouts for those who wish to have factories and create more modern markets for those who want to do trade. Then watch the people do their thing.

When these governors keep hammering that people must return, but don't do their own hardwork to create these things, its like those who pray morning till nightfall for God to make them billionaires but refuse to work at all in their own business or to be employed.

The reason these people invest in other areas is that these things are easier to access there than in the SE states.

Good advice as there are many Igbo business persons who have made money that is lying idly in the bank. However, 'Aku Luo Uno' philosophy is possible but some things are needed to be done to make happen:

- Equip and work closely with nigeria police to develop the functional ways to police each SE state given their respective locale and other peculiarities.

- Create world-class industrial estates to make things easier for investors.

- Create high-brow and secured estates where these moneybags and their foreign partners could reside and sleep with two eyes closed.

- Make the Onitsha seaport to work including dredging. Why can't SE Governors Forum drive this as a body?
