Not everybody use the regular remittance channel. I know of most guys that only send money through bitcoins and that won’t even be covered in the regular channels. Other people also do crimes and they send the proceeds through illegal means, so it will be ridiculous by citing those cases as an argument because it’s outside the norms.

Bro almost most of my guys that I know do car businesses. Sell cars to Naija and use other means to convert the money back and they are also employed in corporate businesses. Even with this Covid-19 work from home level, you will be seeing guys working multiple jobs from home and grossing $300k-$400k yearly. I mean ordinary boys with entry level year of experience. Western countries present better opportunities than any Asian countries you can think of.

I don’t know where most Igbo get this delusion that they are the only one doing businesses. It still beat logic and I can’t explain where that assertions come from. I think business to an Ibo man is buying cloth/spare parts. Any other thing besides that is not recognized as a business by an Ibo man. That’s where the problem is arising from.

I can give Igbo Football but you see that science and technology, Igbo don’t come close to the Yorubas in USA. I wouldn’t want to waste more time with this than I’ve done on this thread with rodokoye. I’ve shown my own evidences to back my claims, the only thing you guys have been using is word of mouth.

Who told you that?

How do you measure success in science and technology in USA? Let’s start from there.

List some of the simple metrics, then let’s both furnish each other with facts backed by sources so this argument can at least be trashed once and for all.

Remember we argued about this some time ago? Either you or Tobrasky.

It was Tobrasky, though the guy later succumbed.

Mr Man go & sit down, igbos are as much if not more than Yorubas in the United States, ever heard of the Igbo Landing of Georgia for a little example?

Another one bite the dust. We say make he bring metrics and sources for science and technology he dey claim Igbo landing of Georgia.

No I haven’t heard of Igbo landing before, but a little search on Google now claimed it was when 75 Igbo slaves rebelled and committed suicide in a slave ship during slavery period.

Now if you are actually okay and not drunk, how does that relate to the post you quoted or this thread?

Barbados was one of the European (British) colonies that received many Igbo people during the slave trade in the 18th and early 19th centuries. Igbo ancestral presence can be found in all aspects of Barbadian culture, including language

History

Atlantic slave trade
Further information: Slave Coast of West Africa, Igbo people in the Atlantic slave trade, and Igbo Landing
The Igbo were affected heavily by the Atlantic slave trade in the 18th century. Enslaved Igbo were known for being rebellious and having a high count of suicide in defiance of slavery. In the United States the Igbo were most numerous in the states of Maryland (coincidentally where there is a predominant population of recent Igbo immigrants)[ and Virginia, so much so that some historians have denominated colonial Virginia as “Igbo land.”[7]

With a total of 37,000 Africans that arrived in Virginia from Calabar in the 18th century, 30,000 were Igbo according to Douglas B. Chambers. The Frontier Culture Museum of Virginia estimates around 38% of captives taken to Virginia were from the Bight of Biafra. Igbo peoples constituted the majority of enslaved Africans in Maryland. Chambers has been quoted saying "My research suggests that perhaps 60 percent of black Americans have at least one Igbo ancestor...

It is estimated that a total of 1.4 million Igbo people were transported via European slave ships across the Atlantic during the transatlantic slave trade. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Igbo_people_in_the_Atlantic_slave_trade

Who said that? See them I thought you people said you had facts from your previous argument? Show the facts that Yorubas are more than Igbos in the United States or North America as a whole.

Well Wikipedia can be edited by anybody.

Below is the same link showing 20 thousand Igbo people were transported.

Next time if you’re trying to push your IPOB bureau of statistics, at least use a reputable source that can be verified rather than Wikipedia that even a 10 year old kid can edit especially those that are open to everyone to edit.

Shame done catch you, you have no argument, it can be edited by anyone? Why don’t you edit it for it to say that Yorubas are more than Igbos in North America? Why are you only on the Eboe point, give us the wiki on your own argument? You claimed you had won an argument on this issue before, present your imaginary argument for us to ascertain?
