I*bos dey dominate almost every economic sector in Nigeria...but yet Dem say they are marginalized. U find a full market occupied by the Igbos. I doubt if there is any market in the eastern state monopolized by any other tribe. In my brief stay in Owerri I noticed all the shops and restaurants are owned by Igbos.
Anxiety2022: I just got diagnosed of been HIV+. I don't even know what to do or where to start at this phase in life. Dream looks shambles. I had that HIV positive patient must take it's drugs everyday in other to survive. I really do not know where to start. I feel like taking my life away. Who can give me a concrete advise on how to survive this. The trauma is much on me. I really do not know who to ask for favor. I am looking forward for your advice.
