90% of igbo millionaires and billionaires are EXTREMELY selfish. THEIR OWN FAMILIES SUFFER, apart from the wife and kids.

They rarely do anything for their own communities apart from maybe distribute rice and provisions to the villagers at christmas.

You will see an Igbo man worth several millions of dollars. Some of his brothers/cousins etc will still be hustling on the streets, some even hawking.

You never see that with northerners. Once one of them is rich, and you see the brothers, you won't even know the one that is the big shot, because they're all solid.

When they travel to Dubai, you'll see up to 20 of them, from Alhaji to his brothers, sisters, mum, dad, cousins, drivers, hairdressers house helps etc.

An Igbo man, if he travels with anyone, na him wife and maybe his kids. Finish.

More often than not, he just sneaks out alone.

I think the refusal of wealthy Igbos to share their wealth is a reason for the continued marginalisation of Igbos in Nigeria. Political influence requires that you have a large base of well-to-do elite. When you restrict that elite to a tiny club of monied men, your base is weakened, and easy to manipulate. It is very easy for others to take advantage of your group.

Igbos build millionaires.... They have you work for your money.... And this is a good thing.... Don't just go about dashing out money, give them the boat to go fish their own currency....


The Northerners on the other hand will dash you money and gives you whatever favors you ask them... but rarely will they establish you except their family member......


Whichever way.... whatever your destiny is, is what you make of....

Moderator remove this thread like u did mine " The north needs an OBI CUBANA". Else ill conclude that this nairaland is a platform to ridicule Igbo's.

rosinkkit:


I'm sorry but that is nonsense.

A typical Igbo millionaire will not give you enough to start a business that is on a gargantuan scale of his level, that can earn you millions of dollars in revenue.

He might give you 20,000 dollars if you're really lucky. ''Go open shop somewhere and stop bothering me. Family! Can you see? I've helped him o! Let him not come back next month and say he wants another money ....'''

An Hausa-Fulani millionaire is ready to give his brother 1 to 5 million dollars CASH to, start a business, and that is what they do. That's why their wealth is generational.

This is not about tribe, how many families do you know in these tribes that makes you come to this conclusion

Igbo hater spotted. And yet the north has the country's poorest while they have been in power for over 40 yrs and Igbos never. In the north the money stolen from govt circulate amongst the rich .For One Igbo billionaire , 2000 Millionaire have been produced through Igba boy or serving your master in trading that is the reason Igbos have dominated trading and business in Nigeria.

Dumbo. This is not about the traditional Igbo custom you are referring to where some spare parts shop owner trains an underling and gives him some money after the 5 year apprenticeship.

This is an entirely different level of wealth transfer we are referring to here.

Asshole.... wealth transfer is wealth transfer and no matter the means you use... enriching others and changing their poverty status is what matters....


You can't be this stupid and be defensive of your foolishness...



Is like telling me that getting filled is different from eating to my satisfaction...

Wetin this obi cubana trend go do to people

rosinkkit:


Dumbo, did you even read the headline? no. Wealth transfer is not wealth transfer.''

This thread relates to actual millionaires and billionaires, not you and your fellow spare parts dealers.

Asshole.....


Do you even know what headlines mean?


Your content is what I focused on....
