Rate of business failures alarming in South-East – ECCIMA President

By Emmanuel Uzodinma

The new president of the Enugu Chamber of Commerce, Industry, Mines and Agriculture, ECCIMA, Rev. Surveyor Ugochukwu Chime has expressed worry over the rate business owners are closing shops in the South-East zone of Nigeria.

Chime, who spoke on the occasion marking his installation as the new president of ECCIMA and the induction of over 25 members in Enugu, said “the rate of business failures have so much accelerated that it has induced fear into investors, especially local investors who do business without the economies of scale being enjoyed by multi nationals.”

While identifying the various challenges standing before his leadership, he observed that revenue accruing to the various levels of government in the country had in the past two years reduced by over 50 percent, stressing that ‘this has resulted in its inability to run government and execute capital projects effectively.”

“We are faced with over 60 percent unemployment amongst the youths, with the school leavers being the worst hit, leading to anger, frustration, high rate of crime and insecurity of lives and properties

“It is now easier and faster for global socio-economic challenges to affect our people in the remotest part of our villages, resulting in what they do not know, affecting and devastating their means of livelihood”, he further stated.

The ECCIMA President, however, assured that with his team, the ECCIMA under his leadership would focus on human resource development, membership and development, promotion of commercial agriculture, industrial training and entrepreneurship.

In his speech at the event, Governor Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi commended the Chamber for her achievements, particularly the cordial relationship between the Chamber the organised private sector and the government and people of Enugu state, which he said had boosted entrepreneurship, poverty eradication strategies and skill acquisition in Enugu State.

@OP, it is also well known that if the said people leave Yorubaland en mass, you people will not survive.

We need each other.

We all need each other, but that Yoruba won't survive is purely a hyperbolic statement. There will be an adjustment period but that's pretty much all of it.

Mayor of Lagos and anti-Igbo threads...

What's with the hyperbole? Hope you aren't trying to start unnecessary fire... necessity is the mother of invention, what's rocket science in importation and trading? if push comes to shove, manufacturing will take over... we are still playing.. no real developed country exists almost primarily on importation.....





Mayoroflagos,

Bros mi on steroids..

Chai mayoroflagos.. ..Biko .why u dey find trouble

why do you think an average uche will rather run to the west than staying in alaibo.

Reading and understanding are two different things,understanding remains the biggest problem facing all half-baked graduates.....'mayor of lagos',you are a victim of the failed educational system in Nigeria. Try and comprehend before masturbating on any news about Igbos.
Like president,like his followers!

I have read this post umpteen times to see the caption of the report, but I couldn't find it. What the ECCIMA president said is a national menace afflicting every part of the country. The OP is well known to stir up tribal fights so this doesn't surprise me.

Like nduchucks said, we need one another. No nation exists in isolation. I don't agree with his belief that Yourbas will suffer if the Igbos leave. The business art of Importation and trading is not too difficult to master. Besides, a sovereign Yoruba state could become a hub of manufacturing.

Madam you will make me protest your partiality in this matter o. The title of the OP's thread could have the effect of starting unnecessary fire much faster than my innocent post. In the meantime you accuse me wrongfully, while you hail the OP.

Please note that I am opposed to anything which could cause the deaths of Nigerians, including direct and indirect calls for separation.

You see why I said you want to set fire? You are trying to mischievously make an issue out of this by implying SW's survival is at risk and you know it... you are a fun loving arsonist..

As for seperation, what will be will be... overt or subtle threat of mass murder or carnage won't stop anything... . Be guided.


I'm not hailing mayor for the thread, just acknowledging him, dazall....

Come again....what did you call me?

There is a theory that "Igbos are the most energetic parvenus" who have successfully challenged the established order of
supremacy which the Yoruba occupied in the elitist professional civil service and economic establishments all across this great country. The OP will never admit that he subscribes to the theory.

The Igbos admire the man of energy, the gogetter and the qualities stressed in children’s upbringing are property, money,
honesty, and loyalty to kinsmen.

Calling folks flaties and the like does not change these facts.

Omenka, as far they are concerned that ECCIMA Chairman na Yorubaman.

If you comb through Iboland you will be shocked with the amount of underdevelopment in socioeconomic measures. We dont hear because Ibos do a good job hiding their shame. Its just now coming out in the age of instantaneous multimedia reporting....meanwhile socio economic challenges in Yorubaland has been exposed and been subject of public discourse for decades.
