The South-east Is Like A Private Construction Zone by Emancipation: 8:50am On Feb 25, 2016 |
I have been away from the country for almost 4 years for studies. I had the opportunity to tour the east for the past two months trying to setup up my business. It felt like a construction zone everywhere. The type of real estate boom happening is shocking. Places that used to be bush years ago are housing estates. I couldn't even recognize my own mother's village. The development is real and surprising considering the fact that the economy is not good. My theory about this is that: 1)possible investment coming from igbos in the diaspora. 2) possible that igbos in nigeria have finally reversed the trend of investing outside of igboland 3) possible that Easterners on average might have stronger spending power Finally, i think that governments in the east have to be more strict when it comes to new developments in virgin lands. They need to make sure the area is mapped out and well planned before people get permit to build so that space for road expansion can be available. But I am still impressed at the rapid developments. 44 Likes 4 Shares |

I have observed this also. The reason is simple: Nigeria will cease to exist very soon. The wise ones know this and are investing now before prices quadruple. Not just people in Diaspora, those in Lagos and North are also investing back home...preparing to relocate when it ceases to exist. 36 Likes 3 Shares |

True! Many igbos are coming back home to invest. It's stupid having your business everywhere in this country except where you are from. The igbos can single handedly develop their region WITHOUT federal assistance so it beats me how some of our igbo leaders like TA orji treated and still treat their states. 29 Likes 3 Shares |

Of course, igbos are becoming wiser, I was marvelled to see an Igbo man build a highrise hotel with elevators in Enugu and also a 25 duplex estate in awka. Go to isikwuato and see the massive industrial city ugah is building there. Ifeanyi ubah too cannot be left out 24 Likes |

Emancipation:exactly! And that is what the south east truly needs. 100% Control of its resources while enjoying being in a larger nation at the same time. The South east is blessed with the most important resource any country can have- a large educated population. Forget oil,gas,coal,precious stones or any other natural resource..the human resource in the east is of high quality and MUST be put to good use. 17 Likes 1 Share |

I used to know a man that is worth billions ..he has a FIRM IN Lagos.. He was so confident of the love by the people that claim they are his (g)host in Lagos till oba of Lagos made that lagoon statement ...the man said that was an eye opener ...he has started pulling all his investment back to east Also a friend was based in USA and he wanted to build a house in Lagos ..I advised him against it..he claimed one Nigeria ....I took him to a tour of nairaland so that he can read the anti igbo comments ..he read it and now changed his mind ...he has estate in enugu All you need to do is take them on a tour of Nairaland ..if you can't do that ..just go to search and type igbo That's all Igbos are getting wiser now Where is ugomba and peppyluv and asadike 41 Likes 2 Shares |

That's why i laugh at the obsession of people in this country with oil.

IkpuMmadu: Good point there. I have been an a one Nigeria optimist for most of my life, until recently , when I started paying attention to the political section of Nairaland. More recently, with the detention and vile vilifications of Nnamdi Kanu protest movement on Nairaland, I have given up on the fact that we could ever be united as one Nigeria. So, just like everyone else, I am beginning to shift my investment focus towards the East. It's a wake up call. 20 Likes |

Igboland is beautiful and conducive for living, learning, tourism and business. We have an emerging paradise in Igboland, that is why eagle eye investors who can see huge profits from a distance are moving and investing in Igboland. Below are pictures from Owerri, Imo State.
