Is it not better to be hardworking, successful and chest beat than to be collecting Owo mi da from one bus Stop to another? Or waiting for Igbos container to arrive at idumota so as to collect offload money?

Are the Igbos even half as successful as Yorubas either home or abroad?
Do you have people that can compare with Adenuga,Alakija,Harry Akande,Bayo Ogunlesi etc?
Stop fooling yourselves.
Yorubas are far ahead of the Igbos in almost all ramifications, businesses, politics, Education,Development, Tertiary,secondary and primary schools,sports except football,entertainment,media......etc

This man has gone far in Sierra Leone o. I remember last year the President of Sierra Leone sent the minister of internal affairs with a large of contingent of defence ministry staff to visit Innoson's factory in Nnewi. Instead of Joe Igbokwe to beg Innoson for work as onye nnewi he is cleaning gutters in Lagos

Cheeh, LOL

I know Ibos are the only genuine businessmen in Nigeria.

Otedola once ceased to be a billionaire because naira fell following recession.

our brother Obj once told our sister folorunsho alakija "I made you a billionaire' which means she became a billionaire by govt favour not hardworking.

Adenuga our brother is also an IBB front

Dangote enjoys monopoly

Ibos are doing it alone almost dominating every sector through hardwork. They're gifted and must be given credit for that.

Yet the yamlegged noisemakers can't develop igboland? Abeg meshionu! Flat head.

So Bayo Ogunlesi,Kas Lawal,Dr Olutoye and all the great Yorubas making it big abroad(Igbos have almost Zero presence abroad compared to the smartly industrious Yorubas) are also depending on Nigeria's govt,abi?
Yorubas have been great business people before Igbos open eye for business which they do not even know how to do well.

Armaggedon:
Igbo capitalist billionaires spreading tentacles around the continent
Great news.

....The only tribe that's not afraid of taking risk when it comes to investment. Most structures in Abuja and Lagos belongs to them.

Wow, I am happy for Sierra Leone for joining the league of oil producing country and for giving an African the opportunity to develop their oil well.

People doing it without government help n support ? ...did government intentional bring policy to bring them down ?

Without GoodLuck Jonathan buying Innoson products, Innoson is as good as dead.

Innoson is the dangote of the east.
More grace to him

jlinkd78:
Good news for Innoson but here in Nigeria d oil block matter is used for furthering Fulanization

U know if u look at the top indigenous producers u wouldnt find any Fulani right? Out of the 20% indigenous production the highest Muslim northerner is Indimi (kanuri) who produces off his stake in akwa ibom at 18k barrels a day.

Aiteo does 90k barrels on its own operated block and is owned by Benedict Peters an Edo man and run by Chike Onyejekwe a former md of Snepco.

Kola Karim's shoreline does 60 k or so.

Danjuma's SAPETRO has a share of 46k total from akpo and egina. He's a Christian northerner.

Seplat by Avuru and Orjiakor does anything between 30 and 60k a day.

Indimi's Oriental with 18k. Alakija's famfa collects 11k out of the 190k that her Agbami with Chevron produces.

There's many marginal producers and when u look at their owners its ppl from PH Lagos Ogun Anambra Imo etc that dominate. Northerners dominate the officialdom. Not the actual business.. mind u of all the major producers Nigeria does more thru indigenous producers than anybody. In Angola top govt associates do 3k a day at the most.

Sierra Leone looks promising but Naija produces stupid amounts for u to overlook. More oil here than in the entire region put together.

Forget bro, no sentiments when it's time to do business and make money. Always remember that. Dont go and chase shadows in other parts of Africa with smaller treasure chests and their own ethnic palava to begin with.

SmartPolician:
I hope they don't debunk it in a few hours

Nigerian bloggers have been lying with Liberia and Sierra Leone lately

I actually wish Innoson debunks it through the media.
Such a news would annoy the Nigerian Fulani regime and they will impose some tax on Innoson or summon the Sierra leonean ambassador to Aso Rock.

Richest Nigeria medical doctor is an Igbo man, Godwin Maduka owner of Las Vegas pain Institute with 6 branches across US
Biggest Nigeria luxury car dealer Obi Okeke founder Fusion Luxury Motors in Los Angeles, Otondo Google Iheatu Obioha the founder and President of Bluefield Associates, Inc maker of Clear Essence

Dr. Iheatu Obioha, the founder and President of Bluefield Associates, Inc, Dr Iheatu Obioha is the man behind Clear Essence Cosmetics USA Inc, the manufacturers of Clear Essence, Adure and Chimere skin care products.
Clear Essence Skin Care System was developed to address the skin care concerns of men and women of color. , graduated from the University of Maryland with a Business Administration degree. He then took a different direction from most Nigerians that came to America to pursue their educational dreams by not returning to his native country. He decided to take the entrepreneurial route of working for himself in America. He saw an opportunity in the emerging ethnic cosmetics category.
In the early 1970s, African nations were developing huge appetites for ethnic hair care products made in America by companies such as SoftSheen, Pro-Line, Luster, etc. These products were difficult to buy in most Sub-Saharan African countries, as the U.S. based companies did not have distribution outlets. Dr. Obioha started his career as a trader taking suitcases of these products to countries such as Nigeria, Ghana and Cameroon. As his sales increased in these countries, so did his knowledge of doing business in Africa and local market needs. He eventually had his “Aha” moment with his interaction with the local cosmetic distributors. He discovered a huge void for skin care products that address the problems of people of African descent.

To start the process, Dr. Obioha consulted with some of Europe’s dermatologists and chemists to determine what defines the skin of people of color and to categorize the primary skin concerns of dark skinned women. Scientifically, Caucasian skin is physically and physiologically different than darker skin, or that of African descent. There is a distinct chemical difference between Caucasian skin, which produces a compound called pheomelanin, and dark skin, which produces a compound called eumelanin. The overproduction of eumelanin in skin of people of African descent results in problems such as hyperpigmentation, excessive oiliness, dry patches, and razor bumps.
Bluefield Associates Inc., launched the Clear Essence® Skin Care brand in 1992 and introduced it to the Nigerian market first. The initial line of products consisted of a cleansing medicated bar soap, a fade cream, and a skin beautifying milk (lotion). The 3 SKUs were specifically formulated to treat dark spots, uneven skin tone, and blemishes. Within the last 20 years, the Clear Essence® company has grown to 20 SKUs, distributed in over 20 African countries, 7 European countries, and 500 beauty supply stores in North America. Currently, the bulk of our business in done via physical shipping of products from the Ontario, Calif. plant to the distributors around the world with 70 percent of the sales realized within the African continent as the brand enjoys a level of regard in that region. There is a growing and latent demand for Clear Essence Skin Care products in North America, driven by immigration and travel to and from Europe and Africa.

Globally, people of color are exponentially increasing in population, buying power and access to disposable income. Historically, the larger main market, cosmetic companies had over looked this emerging consumer but are now rushing to deliver products to this group through R&grin initiatives and marketing strategies that are very inclusive of this demographic. Additionally, these big cosmetic companies are buying market entry via acquisition of small ethnic brands that enjoy consumer loyalty. For example, L’Oreal and Revlon have purchased black-owned firms and brands such as SoftSheen, Pro-Line, etc. Bluefield Associates, Inc their products are manufactured at the company’s FDA-approved, 40,000 square-feet facility in Ontario, California United States, where their chemists take great pride in carefully studying black skin including its structure, to develop the best products for people of African descent.
Bluefield Associates Inc., provides private label manufacturing services for ethnic skin, hair, botanical and OTC products. From development through production and delivery, our team and high-tech FDA approved faculty combine to ensure efficient, consistent and quality products. Our fully equipped Quality Control laboratory provides the most rigorous raw material and finished product testing in the industry, assuming top quality results.
