Dangote is the richest man in Nigeria today because his companies are managed not only by foreigners but also by people from all over the country and not just his tribe alone. Thanks to him our export has increased as a nation(GDP 23rd largest). He has built large plants in Lagos and Kogi even outside the shores of Nigeria not just in Kano his state of origin.
He is also building a refinery in Lagos, and I want to announce to those who think that it will one tribe alone that will run the refinery, that they are making a big mistake. He understands the impact of diversity and does not play the tribalism card.
This is one of the reasons he keeps growing while those who chose to play the tribalism card are not growing any further.
Now if he achieved this feat mainly on commodities (sugar ,cement) alone, imagine what he would achieve in energy mainly oil and gas.
If he hadn't left his locality (Kano), he would not have gained global recognition or at least to this level.
If you doubt me check out all the millionaires before him, how they rose and how they failed. Some are still stagnant.
I wouldn't want to mention any names but look around you will definitely see why some people have not grown the way he grew.
Tribalism and ethnicity is not an option for anyone who wants prosperity, it is about synergy,it is about win-win.
We have everything we need in Nigeria, yet we can't see it.
Those who play tribalism might make temporary gains due to sight but those who truely understand diversity are prosperity have vision and insight.
Everybody is free to do whatever they feel, but our actions are without consequences. Good morning Nigeria.

Why say that ?


Not all of them so I think generalisation is not good

I have to keep telling ndigbo this, because so many of you online deal with many un-enlightened yoruba and you can say many things and get away with it because they are ignorant. but I have to come in and clear the matter - NOBODY IN ANY PART OF THIS WORLD SELLS LAND. NO PLACE ON THIS GODS GREEN EARTH IS LAND ' SOLD '. LAND IS LEASED FOR PERIODS OF 100 YEARS. AFTER THE LEASE IS UP THEY CAN RENEW IT FOR YOU OR THEY CAN TERMINATE IT. YOU OWN THE HOUSE ON THE LAND AND NOT THE LAND. THE LAND IS CONTROLLED BY YORUBA DIGNATARIES. WHEN PEOPLE BUY LAND-THEY BUY THE USE OF THE LAND FOR 100 YEARS. IN SOME COUNTRIES THEY GIVE YOU 150 YEARS. but nobody really buys land. this is why el-rufai can come and bulldoze thousands of houses belonging to people is because you can never own land.

Abagworo/abagoro is an old jobless animal that should be caught and be axed or stoned to death fiercely and mercilessly.

Uwazulike is from Imo state and he started this madness when he formed MASSOB. Uwazulike recruited these jobless folks from imo state who are jobless to cause disharmony in SE and Nigeria at large. We can’t afford another illiterate in the mold of Okorocha to mess up again.

[b]ahhh but you are not seeing the big picture. you are looking at the situation from a poor yoruba mans perspective who is on ground level who sees all these igbos owning shops or houses. the poor yoruba man is alarmed and thinks the igbo man is taking over. this is the myopic poor yoruba mans vision of the situation. now let me take you to the view of the rich powerful yoruba man hiding in the background controlling everything. men like tinubu who practically own all of lagos and his fellow yoruba land-owners. these powerful yoruba men know the land belongs to yoruba and they can lease it to anybody who has money. it pays you more to lease it to ndigbo because they can bring all their wealth to lagos instead of keeping it east. then people like tinubu can get the following benefits
1- you pay all kinds of taxes and levies on the land annually
2-you beautify and develop lagos when you build your structure on it
3-you pay millions of naira to lease the land
4-when you build your structure on it you employ lagosians to build it for you hence employment
5-the fact that you live in lagos means you spend all your money in lagos and keep commerce vibrant

so these yoruba dignataries are collecting money in 5 different ways from ndigbo who has leased land in lagos. it is sophisticated slavery. you are enslaved to yoruba but you dont know it because you have a house and think you are free. SO THIS IS THE VIEW OF THE YORUBA ROYALTY WHO CONTROLS THE LAND. BUT TO THE POOR YORUBA MAN HE SEES THE IGBO AS COMPETITION. BUT IN REALITY ? THE IGBO MAN AND THE POOR YORUBA MAN ARE ALL SLAVES TO THE YORUBA ROYAL CLASS[/b]

This report is what I call junk journalism

Where the igbos given shops for free..so the term allocated should not be used

What it the role of iya Loja

Why can't there be election


Why must iya Loja be an issue ...the Igbo do not understand the term iyaloja and they will not understand why an old woman with fat butts sits at one corner doing absolutely nothing will be collecting levies while people prostate giving it to her


I think in all honesty there are things that should be jettisoned and one of them is this iyaloja mentality


If the red Indians maintained their archaic culture there won't be new York

If the Emiratis had maintained their desrt nomadic culture we all won't troop to Dubai

I think the average black man has challenges with growth and the ability to think out of the box


Nations are begging people to come do businesses in their land some are busy formeting trouble with this iyaloja and omonile attitude

For heavens sake this is ICT period not Oyo dynasty nor Igbo ukwu kingdom



The black man must grow ...the black man must stop been laughed at by other races



Can somebody tell me the wholesome and value the iyaloja brings



Muslims don't take alcohol but the Emiratis understand that they need foreign money they forgot that and today in Dubai you can club and drink fine cocktail of cognac and vodka...that is how people should reason


Which one is more important

Is it the iyaloja thing or economic booming of the area



Good morning all

Rapture007:
.
Now u show how slow ur reasoning is? So evry 100 years u resell land to ur buyer? How old is Nigeria since amalgamation and tell me if it is time for yorubas to resell/re-lease their land to Igbos cos we will gladly pay again and if it isnt up to 100years why the trouble? I guess u re one of those Investment Lawyers who graduated from Ajengule Polytechnic

Trut:
The silly writer of this news painted the yorubas white as if the igbo traders are accommodated in the market free of charge.

IamAtribalist:
The amala-eaters are seeing what the abokis have seen a long time ago, namely the akpu-eating flattheads are not to be trusted. Give them an inch they take a mile, give them a yard, they take a mile. Biafra will not come until the amala-eaters uproot those flattheads from Lagos. Until you deal with the chestbeaters they will never recognize how to show respect to others. Go to Kano now and see how nice and humble these flattheads have become. They will beating their chests until aboki started macheting them one by one. In Kano (and the North in general), you see the flattheads going about their business with humility and very little chestbeating(if any at all)- they dare not try any stupid nonsense.

Haven't said all these, lets not forget that the amala eaters and the akpu-eating flattheads are both a nuisance that need to shut up or go away.

Its the tribalist signing off.

Indeed you can find Igbos in almost every nook and cranny of Nigeria peacefully building and establishing business empires, and growing the economy of the locals and that of the country at large. No other tribe or ethnic group can be said to have exhibited such Nigerianness.

In the history of Nigeria there is virtually no occasion in which Igbos have gone on rampage, killing people and destroying means of livelihoods for no just cause.

It's wrong to subtly allude to the saying that the 'host' is accommodating anyone when in reality the 'host' never offered the said lands to the 'visitor' for free or feeds the 'visitor'. The 'visitor' pays taxes and rents, sometimes multiple times.

Don't be the ignorant one by engaging in unnecessary diversionary tactics and joining dissimilar issues. That can't be the way out of a troubled situation.

You maybe bitter with NK but the truth is you can't do anything about his IPOB or RB.
You've only succeeded in proving the axiom that every strong position attracts opposition!

As per 10 million Igbos being killed by a gang up of other ethnic group in Nigeria, that can only exist in your fantasy, Biafra or no Biafra.
Never again shall the blood of Biafrans be wasted on the dirty streets of Nigeria in vain!

It's honourable to be sincere and objective in contributing to a national discourse.

babestella:



[s]Don't mind ignorant kids, they are quick to say yorubas accommodated igbos. Do they know how much igbos spend in buying lands and building houses and businesses?
Any yoruba man or woman who have given out even a piece of land even quarter plot to any igbo man for free let him come out and say it, do igbos live in yoruba owned flats for free? Is there a warehouse where igbos go daily to collect free floods and materials from almighty yorubas?

I think the yorubas should be the ones to respect themselves and show some respect to the igbo.
Igbos are the only tribe in Nigeria who truly seek one Nigeria and had believed in one Nigeria, that is why they feel free to live in any part of Nigeria despite how much yoruba and Hausa hate and marginalise them they still wax strong.

If all Yoruba is planning is to collaborate with the Hausa and kill igbos, then I can conclusively that you all are vampires, lazy leeches making a grave mistake thinking this is still 1960s. [/s]

You cant make a statement without insults? I can relate that to your frustration..keep crying. Insulting people is what uncivilized people do and am not gonna resort to that, so straight to the point.
The Eastern people fought 3 years for their nation but failed because a larger chunk of the country with foreign help resisted. Now those same Eastern people accepted their faith and began to live their normal lives while accepting being Nigerian.

That your lands are being bought up by them points to the fact that perhaps you made a mistake and would have let them go. Perhaps you would have to beg them to leave next time.

But, sorry...for the meanwhile lets enjoy ONE NIGERIA

There is nothing being beautified and beneficial in that snarled-up place. It looks like hell on earth and a place just recovering from a brutal civil war.

Apart from the inconsequential revenue they blab about generating that isn't worth it based on the pressure on the amenities there - the darn place ought to either be nuked or heavily decongested. I was there 2years ago and it was an eyesore.

Yoruba just need to deal with it or shut up.
