The ignorance of Yorubas might give me cancer one day. See how he craftily grouped all industries and companies in Lagos and Ogun as SW owned and counted them among Yoruba companies then turned around and asked what Igbos contribute to Nigeria. grin

Emzor Pharmaceuticals - Lagos
Capital Oil - Lagos
Chi limited - Lagos
Coscharis Motors - Lagos
Visa Phone - Lagos, Ogun
Fidelity Bank - Lagos, Ogun
Diamond Bank - Lagos, Ogun
Slot limited - Lagos, Ogun
Anabel Industries - Ogun
FAN - Lagos
Numerous hotels and Private schools, Businesses, Car dealership and many other Igbo business and industries operating in the SW belongs to Yorubas and Igbo contributes nothing even if 25% of the oil and gas exported comes from the SE. I did not mention SE manufacturing hub at Abia and Anambra, Nollywood ($5.1 billion industry) headquarters at upper iweka Anambra state, Agriculture especially palm oil, cassava and rice in Imo and Ebonyi, Tourism in Enugu.

Now the question is, apart from Igbos and foreigners that dominate Lagos and Ogun manufacturing hub, how many manufacturing companies does Yorubas own in the SW? What is the Yorubas contribution to the economy of Lagos and Ogun state?

The OP said what does SE region contribute? Lagos based companies count as SW contribution, even if its Ibo owned. Until you return home and develop alaibo, the significance of Iboland in Nigeria is lost forever.

Not much, those crops you mentioned are not traditional Igbo crops, I can only handle crops like Yam, maize and even palm fruit. But I bet Biafra can always depend on the services of Biafrans like this, in the field of Agriculture.

Oops, you sound very pained. Did i strike a nerve? Let me educate you small boy on the organizational structure of a multinational company. Muhtar Kent is the CEO of Coca-cola bottling company but he's not the owner of coca-cola. Being the head of a multinational company doesn't necessarily mean that you are the owner of said company, so please stop calling every company with a Yoruba CEO a Yoruba owned company, it'll only makes you look stupid.

I really don't like rhetoric and i assume that you haven't traveled outside SW so you're, should i say, ignorant of what happens outside your state. Capital Oil has filling stations across SW, SE and the North while Oando doesn't have any filling station in the SE. Go figure. Another thing I've noticed about Yoruba companies is that they don't grow beyond SW before they crumble, for example MainOne Cable has been in Nigeria since 2005 but it doesn't have any coverage outside Lagos and Abuja, however, MainOne source its server from Mauritania. grin

Please which company is Naija's premiere ISP? Never heard of it. Spectranet? Really? The same Spectranet owned by Oba Akiolu the Lagoon King? A service provider that cannot even cover half of Lagos state and a fraction of Ibadan. cheesy cheesy Laughable grin Now what about Swift Technology, Visa Phone, what about Zinox technology? While you're feeling sorry for yourself another Igbo man just developed cancer seeing glasses.

Small boy when it comes to technology you run and hide when Igbos are talking. Engineering is not poetry or running around with press cameras.
what is this fool saying??who is talking about CEO here when we are talking about chairman. Mike Adenuga is the chairman of Globacom, Otudeko is the Chairman of Honeywell group ,same with GTB and co. CEO's are just PAID employees. A Chairman has a majority ownership of the company. Is ifyanyi UBA the CEO of capital Oilhe is the chairman . Abeg go siddon somewhere jor!

Ondo state which produces 70% of Nigeria's Cocoa

Religious tourism Yoruba owned churches smiley smiley

Oyo state is the largest producer of Tobacco in Nigeria and is the home of the Yoruba textile industry

Osun state's tourism potentials

Osun state has over a billion dollars worth of gold deposits. Same in yagba west and iperindo kwara State

The largest and purest deposits of limestone in Nigeria are found in the South West . Limestone deposition in the South West region of Nigeria have been estimated at 31 million tonnes. Sagamu Ogun state has the largest limestone deposits in Nigeria . Extensive limestone deposits in the area can last for some five hundred years according to scientists and the largest Cement factory in West Africa is located in Sagamu.

I tell you mo-fos have been selling this junk for years that they're industrious and funny enough a lot of gullible people fall for it due to the way the gypsies package it. Whenever the gypsies tell you they own businesses, what they're reffering to business is spare parts shops. what insult is greater than reffering to both "spare parts shops" and "Globacom" as businesses. isn't that blasphemous? even the Niger-deltans contribute and own more talk about the ibrus, ikhides and the bruce-brothers. The gypsies have not excelled more than Yoruba people in any kind of business at an advanced level with the exception of the long haul coach and bus business.

Now, I will take that... because I know for a fact that one is true... Igbos have excelled in the Luxury bus, long haul public transport arena, more than any other group of people in Nigeria.
see, it isn't that hard accepting the facts, when the points there are glaring.

Have come across people from south East region, in any arguement they re quick to mention that without igbo Nigeria cannot survive, they boast of Oil and industries in their region , they call SW and NORTH names like parasite,thieves..

We all know 80% of crude oil comes from south south. 12% from ondo. And 8% from south eastRegion( because ondo produces more barrels of oil than S.E states)

80% Agricultural products are Mainly from North and south west

In terms of industrial concentration Lagos and Ogun are the most industrialised states in Nigeria, from south west region

This re the three basic things that generate income for FG
(CRUDE OIL, AGRICULTURE. AND INDUSTRIES)


my questions are

1.WHAT ARE THE CONTRIBUTIONS OF S.E REGION TO FEDERATION ACCOUNT ..?

2. AT WHAT PERCENTAGE COMPARE TO OTHERS..?

Abia State occupies around 5,834km 2 , and is
bordered on the north and north-east by
Anambra, Enugu and Ebonyi, to the east and
south-east by Cross River and Akwa Ibom, to the
south by Rivers and to the west by Imo. It has
heavy rainfall of about 2,400mm per year
between April to October, and the most
important rivers in the state are the Imo and
Aba rivers that flow into the Atlantic Ocean. The
capital is Umuahia, although the major
commercial activities happen in Aba.
In 1991 the State was created from Imo State,
and it is one of the nine states of the Niger
Delta region - an area well known to cover the
oil producing states of the country. Abia is not
just an oil producing state though; it also adds a
rich agricultural importance to the economy of
Nigeria with crops like yam, maize, potatoes,
rice, cashew, plantain and cassava.
The closest airports to Abia State are Sam
Mbakwe Cargo Airport Owerri, which is an
hour’s drive away; Port Harcourt International
Airport, two hours drive away; and Akwa Ibom
Airport which is about 45 minutes drive away.
Rail is another means of travel, but currently
under revitalisation. The coastal parts of the
state are equally accessible by boat or canoe.
Anambra State - Light of the Nation
The state’s name comes from ‘Oma Mbala', the
native name of the Anambra River. Its
boundaries are formed by Imo and Rivers to the
south, Delta State to the west, Enugu State to
the east and Kogi State to the north.
The capital of the Anambra is Akwa but Onitsha
and Nnewi are the largest commercial and
industrial cities, respectively. The population of
these cities is 98% Igbo and 2% Igala, who are
mostly from the north-western part of the state.
Anambra is rich in natural gas, crude oil and
ceramics, and has almost completely arable soil.
Ebonyi State - Salt of the Nation
The capital of Ebonyi State is Abakaliki. The state
was among the new additions made by the then
Military Head of State, Gen. Sani Abacha in
1996. Ebonyi is primarily agricultural and stands
out as a leading producer of rice, yam, potatoes,
maize, beans and cassava. Apart from
agriculture, the state also has deposits of crude
oil and natural gas.
There are nine major first languages spoken in
Ebonyi State. These languages are all sub-groups
of the Igbo language spoken by all Igbo people
of south-eastern Nigeria.
Enugu State - Coal City State
Enugu is the capital city of Enugu State and is
located in south-eastern Nigeria. The other
major cities in the state are Udi and Nsukka.
The state shares boundaries with Abia, Imo,
Ebonyi, Benue, Kogi and Anambra.
Enugu is blessed with favourable climatic
conditions all year round. Economically, the
state is predominantly rural and agrarian, with a
substantial proportion of it's working population
engaged in farming - although trading and
services are also important. In the urban areas
trading is the dominant occupation, followed by
services.
Imo State - The Eastern Heartland (Land of
Hope)
Imo State was created in 1976 under the
leadership of the late military ruler General
Murutala Muhammed, taking its name from the
Imo River. Owerri is its capital and largest city.
Part of Imo State split off in 1991 as Abia State,
and another part became Ebonyi State. The
major cities in Imo State are Owerri, Orlu and
Okigwe.
Imo State covers an area of around 5,100km 2.
It is bordered by Abia State to the east, by the
River Niger and Delta State to the west, by
Anambra State to the north and Rivers State to
the south.
The state is rich in natural resources including
crude oil, natural gas, lead, zinc, iroko,
mahogany, obeche, rubber trees and oil palms.
The rainy season begins in April and lasts until
October with annual rainfall varying from
1,500mm to 2,200mm. The dry season includes
two months of Harmattan from late December
to late February. The hottest months are
between January and March.

Dude, Yoruba business is a joke. Anyone who employs a Yoruba person to manage his business will be doing a disservice to his company.

You are nothing but a jealous yes.bo dolt. Oba Otudeko heads Honeywell group. That your region has failed to attract big multinationals is not Yorubaman's fault. Your response still didn't refute the fact that our banks dominate our region.

Guy, you are trying too hard to sound smart but you can are typical igbo 419er. Capital oil is in receivership and ifeanyi uba is scamner cum (his coscharis scam cones readily to mind) oil importer and nothing more. How many filling stations does he have in Lagos and Nationwide? It is a CRIME and Blasphemous to compare Capital oil to Oando.

MainOne cable is owned and operated by Yorubas. Naija's premiere ISP, Spectranet, is a a Yoruba business. Go and ask IrokoTv which ethnicity drives their I.T department -- SW unis churn out the best and brightest I.T experts. Cc hub, Naija's premiere I.T incubator is owned and run by Yorubas.

I repeat, our engineers and tycoons dominate the Telecom sector (Adenuga).

Spectranet is not owned by yorubas but by Indians, Iroko TV is not driven by yoruba IT engineers unless you mean desktop, network engineers, some of the best IT entrepreneurs in the world like Chinedu Echeruo, Ndubuisi Ekekwe, kenneth Nwabueze, Wilson nweke are igbos.

The largest and most succesful telecommunications company in Nigeria mtn has an igbo in charge as CTO.

Moreover the IT industry in nigeria is not developed to any extent so claiming to control the an undeveloped industry which the owner of IrokoTv and others are pulling funds to develop is a joke.

The ignorance of Yorubas might give me cancer one day. See how he craftily grouped all industries and companies in Lagos and Ogun as SW owned and counted them among Yoruba companies then turned around and asked what Igbos contribute to Nigeria. grin

Emzor Pharmaceuticals - Lagos
Capital Oil - Lagos
Chi limited - Lagos
Coscharis Motors - Lagos
Visa Phone - Lagos, Ogun
Fidelity Bank - Lagos, Ogun
Diamond Bank - Lagos, Ogun
Slot limited - Lagos, Ogun
Anabel Industries - Ogun
FAN - Lagos
Numerous hotels and Private schools, Businesses, Car dealership and many other Igbo business and industries operating in the SW belongs to Yorubas and Igbo contributes nothing even if 25% of the oil and gas exported comes from the SE. I did not mention SE manufacturing hub at Abia and Anambra, Nollywood ($5.1 billion industry) headquarters at upper iweka Anambra state, Agriculture especially palm oil, cassava and rice in Imo and Ebonyi, Tourism in Enugu.

Now the question is, apart from Igbos and foreigners that dominate Lagos and Ogun manufacturing hub, how many manufacturing companies does Yorubas own in the SW? What is the Yorubas contribution to the economy of Lagos and Ogun state?


OLE FAN milk is owned by some danish guys but was founded by ERIC EMBORG and the current chairman is OBA OTUDEKO

OfoIgbo:

Imo produces more oil than Ondo
Abia produces more oil than Ondo
Anambra produces more oil than Ondo

And btw, Anambra and Imo have the largest gas reserves in Nigeria grin

If The Igbo-speaking areas of Delta and Rivers state were to be merged as one state, the state will be producing more oil than any other state in Nigeria. So Igbos are well sorted
they produces oil more than Ondo, give me a convincing fact
The Last time I check Ondo recieves more allocation than any south East state
