Chestbeating as usual.
Ogun state GDP alone is more than the entire South East.
According to these illiterates,the entirety of the economy equals petty trading. Different tribes have their various business niches by which they're more dominant in. That you're into petty trading (of mostly secondary goods) does not invalidate or make you better entrepreneurs than others.

Why are you agitated

AmuDimpka:


So and you are saying ?

I'm sure you can read between the lines.

Ritchiee:


I was at Owode Onirin and I found out that it was 98% dominated by the Yorubas.We have a few Igbos though.

But we are doing business together,we can't do without one another. We are governed with the same rules.

Ritchiee:


lol

So because people say Igbos are ritualists or Nigeria is the giant of Africa,we should believe, abi.Realities,succeses,perseverance, spread and business acumen are what determine good business people. Yorubas have these in Abundance.


Yorubas are the only people that have businesses that have survived more than 70 years and still counting.


Yorubas are the ones who have gone out of Nigeria with nothing but established businesses that run into billions of dollars and billions of pound sterling in worth.

The only worthy Igbo businessman or person in the days of old was Louis Ojukwu who did not have anything left behind that one can point to as a tangible business.



The places you dominate are some markets in Lagos like Alaba,Ladipo,Trade fair,Computer village,Yaba etc.
Yorubas too dominate Owode onirin,Pelewura,Oshodi,Lagos Island...Enu Owa,Balogun etc, Oba,Ijora, etc.

what of papa oyedepo and adeboye are they not business people also?

Igbochief001:

You control them for South West igbo control them for the rest of Nigeria

Plastic ? ...glass? ..do u know how innoson made his money ? Or the likes of ibeto ?
There are over 30 plastic companies in Igbo land from ABA to ontisha to enugu ...Bros calm down
Even your minister of trade ..Uche ogar has one ...master energy plastics ....Bros plastic full East like mad

Glass there is no glass manufacturing company in Nigeria , the only ones u have are bottle producers ....but building glass none we import

The only one was supposed to be built in rivers State ...so relax there are bottle manufacturing companies everywhere ...ABA alone has a few ...with many steel recycling plants

I know this areas very very well cos I'm investing in them very soon max 10 years

There is only one break pad manufacturer in Nigeria he is based in Lagos and igbo man

Igbochief001:

No i am not talking of label but the content and body structure of the battery.

Ucee1999:


No i am not talking of label but the content and body structure of the battery.

We have Nigerian battery ...ibeto is big in battery production

GuyWise101:
I can imagine how the yorubas will rush enter the thread but will feel disappointed after reading it...

Hahaha lol

Someone wrote about WHY THE IGBOS ARE SUCCESSFUL BUSINESS PEOPLE and not WHY THE IGBOS ARE THE MOST SUCCESSFUL BUSINESS PEOPLE but someone feeling very insecured decided to turn this wonderful thread that is meant to educate us on the power of resilience, patience and lean strategy to a d1ck measuring contest.

The author never said the igbos are the most successful business people in Nigeria, he only showed us reasons why they are successful business people.

BTW, before someone tags me 'igbo', I'm a Niger Deltan.

Every tribe has their trade secrets and when learned and combined, they can make one formidable as they would complement each other.

Let us learn in peace.

am not talking of ibeto battery. Am talking of the auto batteries very common in markets like solite, chrome and everstart battery. They are said to be made in korea and malaysia respectively. I want to know if it is really true.

Some yes ...some are Nigerian made branded as such

Amen.Thanks.I like Igbo people because they are industrious just like the Yorubas and Hausas but they like to arrogate good things to themselves and malign others.They have been mouthing this business thing a long,long time that we have come to believe this fake belief.

We only look at their clustering in locations and the sudden takeover of a few places especially in Lagos,the commercial capital of Nigeria.

I did a research and wanted to know why Yorubas are said to be richer than the Igbos when we all believe that Igbos are economically more buoyant than all Nigerians.

I got to know that the clustering is one of the main thing that makes people think Igbos are in business more than anybody coupled with their large population in Lagos.They do the clustering in Aba,Onitsha too.

The final result of the research was that Yorubas are virtually participants in all the businesses dominated by Igbos and Igbos too are in the businesses dominated by Yorubas.


The places Igbos dominate are some markets in Lagos like Alaba,Ladipo,Trade fair,Computer village,Yaba etc.
Yorubas too dominate Owode onirin,Pelewura,Oshodi,Lagos Island...Enu Owa,Balogun etc,Oja Oba,Ijora,Oyingbo etc.

As Igbos dominate phones,Generators,Electrical parts,spare parts, okrika,leather shoes, bags etc.

Yorubas too dominate Iron rods and steel,Poultry and feeds,Plastics,Cereals,Rubber shoes,Seafood,Woods and plywoods,glasses,Vehicles etc

The truth is that Yorubas are more resilient in business and have greater and better business acumen than the Igbos,they have higher spread,durability and mostly more successful but they do not have the population of the Igbo especially in petty businesses.
All in all,Yorubas are better in business than the Igbos.
