This is suspect at best. Lagos and maybe ogun, is understandable but the rest? What criteria are they using? This is laughable. |

Dollyak: Well, the man is from Nnewi and is on ground so to me he sounds authoritative and sincere. He must have the network to obtain his facts. The average Omanbala man is a braggart, so for this man to come out and say this means all may not be well. 1 Like |

Perhaps he meant that the likes of Lagos and Ogun have overtaken the entire SE in the area of Industrialization, while Kano, Warri and Rivers have overtaken them on commerce, coz Kano isn't really known for active industries but it can be argued that commercial activity in a place like Kano is constantly increasing. |

chuna1985: Interesting but silly perspective. In other words, you are implying that virtually all commercial and industrial activity that take place in those locations are owned/controlled/dominated by Igbos? ? Bro, are you ffvking shyting me? That is an insult to other non-igbo Nigerians who also engage in commercial and industrial activity all over Nigeria, even after your fellow kinsman has confirmed that much-- as if there are no non-igbo traders in other parts of Nigeria. You guys are impossible! Smh. 6 Likes |

Where in Onitsha is this Osakwe industrial cluster or is he reffering to mgbuka Obosi that is not even as big as Ochanja market? He should simply appeal to the state gov to help upgrade the place and he talking about SE losing bla bla, why were Abia and Anambra states included in the CBN cashless scheme earlier than most states? Freedom of speech anyway 3 Likes |

I read the interview earlier this month , though the man made so much sense as someone on ground but he pushed his figure too high. Imagine combining the entire Nigeria against SE which his area of concentration is Anambra State. When you talk of SE as a geo_political Zone join why do you remove Rivers but lump all the entire North together with 19 states against SE with 5. Please where is West is overtaking East in commerce barring Lagos which still have Igbos doing virtually everything ![]() Ogun State in industrialized yes the areas close to Lagos, maybe 2 LGs the rest are death. Head or tail, you can't best Easterners in commerce, Small businesses and industries when you class everybody base on geo-political not by SE vs North or SE vs West with Lagos inclusive. 2 Likes |

Yeske2: There is Osakwe Industrial Clusters at Eze Iweka Awada, its haven for small businesses, you will never know such productive ventures are going there until you get inside the area. They virtually manufacture everything, though the place is expanding aand taking over residential areas but they are really moving. The reason he sounding this way is to attract govt attention and sympathy which they actually deserve. 1 Like |

OduaVanguard: Even in Onitsha and Nnewi there are yoloba traders but ask anybody around you who own commerce, trading and transportation in Nigeria they will tell you Igbos. Yolobass sell mostly kolanuts, herbal medicines and lace. Hausas sells food stuffs, suya, BDC and Watches. Igbos virtually sell everything all these tribes in Nigeria sell and still dominate the entire sector. Its not a fallacy, be sincere to yourself for once, it doesn't pay to be deaf, dumb and blind 3 Likes |

Currently am in West Minster Apapa Lagos, go there are see what is happening.

At the rate you all hype your "dominance", one could be forgiven for thinking your SE enclave is a land of milk and honey. ![]() Na so so other people land Una dey "dominate", while Una dey avoid SE like say na hell fire. The poor Nnewi man only raised an alarm so you guys can retain your "dominance" of the one area you are good at and known for -- trading.

BuddahMonk: Listen Buddah, every one and their moms know you guys have commerce in your blood, fine. But the man was only raising an alarm that you all may be losing that turf to others. There's no reason why that anomaly can't be reversed if his advice and suggestions on how to mitigate it are heeded. Simple! |

OduaVanguard: Nobody is saying he is lying but he is pushing the figure too far, Abia economy suffered under TA Orji which dwindled Aba growth but Aba economy is not bad but it didn't grow base on forecasts and potentials. Abia still see more cash transaction than Oyo despite the evil effects of Orji maladministration. Aba still see more influx of financial institutions in Nigeria than most states in Nigeria. What the man was saying is that the industrial clusters are under utilized based on projected output and installed capacity. I know the place wela, electricity is the number one enemy there. |

OduaVanguard: Yes, he is making so much and I really love his outcry and hope authorities will listen. The issue there is still an offshot of the bad government in everywhere in Nigeria sector. He said Pita Obi constructed road for them, yes I know the road and how the place look like. They should push for power supply because that is the greatest threat to their business, then they should partner with govt to put stop to thugs harassing them over revenue and multiple taxation. They just need power and govt support to start clicking, irrespective of that everybody in Nigeria is groaning over epileptic power supply. 1 Like |

OduaVanguard: Sorry Its a mistake, everybody knows we don't sell some of those things I listed but Igbos sell lace and watch, necklace just like Hausas and yorubas do. The sector I meant that we dominate are those outside those listed like spare parts, phones, electrical, building materials, clothes et al. |
