strenghtt: Igbo industry starts and ends with setting up a 2x2 shop where he retails mostly imported and substandard merchandise. If an igboman tells you that you are not hardworking, what he actually means is that until you and your ethnicity also decide to become a race of nomadic 2x2 shop owners, then you don't know the meaning of hard work. But unfortunately for them, some of us are more ambitious in life. In fact, Yoruba men would rather leave the rudiments of the igbo kind of trading to their women/wives (na we dey open shops for our wives, rather than being the ones sitting in the shop to sell market), while they (Yoruba men) challenge their minds with more ambitious pursuits. No matter how educated they are, at some point they always go back to trading in their signature 2x2 shops to sell substandard imported goods. The overwhelming majority of them that live and earn a living outside their region are involved in one form of trading or another because that's what they're good at. You will hardly find them in skilled labour because they prefer to be in their shops. They will rather embrace drug-trafficking if trading fails to bring them riches than become skilled welders, electricians, mechanics, tailors, and the likes. Be it in Kano, in Kaduna, in Gombe, in Lagos, wherever you find them in their numbers they are most engaged in trading. Which isn't bad of itself except that in their twisted minds, they would have us believe that entrepreneurship starts and ends with being a trader. That's nonsense because what we have been witnessing throughout this thread is the true definition of Entrepreneurship and Industry. Yorubas are the TRUE entrepreneurs of Nigeria. They are the ones oiling the engine of the organized private sector. They are versatile and can be found in every sector of the economy, providing leadership, innovation, and cutting edge solutions. Yet they are not noisemakers. That right there is TRUE Entrepreneurship. 31 Likes 5 Shares |

Basic123: Osisikanwu robbed only Igbos Vampire robbed and kidnapped only Igbos Evans Kidnapped only Igbos Every January, you should see how Igbos run away from Igboland as if there is a war going on there. It's only Igbos I know that require armed Mopol protection before they enter their own fathers' compounds. Even at that, they specifically request for Middle belt, Hausa or Yoruba Mobile policemen. You won't see an Igbo man with his Mopol escort being an Igbo man. You'll hear them say stuff like 'I don't want an Mbaise man holding a gun near me'. 13 Likes 2 Shares |

Olatokunbo Adenike Fagbemi is not just the Executive Director, SpringFountain Infrastructure Limited, she is also the Managing Director of African Aircraft Leasing Company (AALC). Her company plans to invest about $20 billion USD in an aircraft leasing facility, in Nigeria. That facility would also include a Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO) centre that covers spares, logistics and parts supply, as well as aggregated services solutions. The proposed investment will enable indigenous airlines lease aircraft at cheaper rate, without the present cumbersome processes. In order to achieve this, she has partnered with Boeing Corporation of the United States, a leading aircraft manufacturer. If the Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul (MRO) facility comes on stream, Nigeria would save $500 million (about N190 billion) annually, which private airlines in West Africa spend conducting aircraft maintenance checks abroad. It would also create an estimated 10,000 jobs locally. Tokunbo Fagbemi has always been a passionate believer in the Aviation Industry. She is the first Nigerian to be fully accredited as a chartered International Airport Consultant. After studying Pharmacy at undergraduate level, she acquired an MBA from the University of Nevarra, Spain. She also attended prestigious schools such as Lagos Business School (LBS), Cranfield University (UK) and Harvard University before she undertook the Nigeria Infrastructure program to become a certified aviation consultant. Some years back, a company known as Maevis (jointly owned by Tokunbo and her husband Babatunde), was granted a concessionaire agreement, to automate and manage the internal revenue collection of the nation's major international airports, under a Public-Private-Partnership (PPP) scheme. The deal, signed on October 31, 2007 with FAAN, was for the acquisition, installation, operation and management of an Integrated Airport Operation Management System (AOMS), Common User Self-Service System (CUSS), Flight Information Display System (FIDS), Airport Pricing and Billing System, a proactive revenue management system and an Electronic Payment Gateway System. Despite Maevis investing over 4 billion naira in the project to install equipment, platforms etc., that deal was abruptly terminated by the former Minister of Aviation, Princess Stella Ada Oduah in 2011, even though the concessionary agreement was expected to run for 10 years. The courts awarded judgement to the tune of 5 billion in favour of Maevis, and ruled that the warring parties (i.e. FAAN and Maevis) should maintain status quo, or head for arbitration to resolve the matter. The matter is yet to be resolved, satisfactorily. But Fagbemi has not lost hope, and remains undaunted in the face of all obstacles. As she puts all hands on deck to execute this deal with Boeing, her company is set to become the biggest transport infrastructure company, on the coast of West Africa. During the agreement signing ceremony recently in Lagos between Boeing and SpringFountain Infrastructure, Fagbemi said the aircraft leasing facility that would be established in Nigeria would be the first in Africa, and would create a robust window for Nigerian operators to access 200 Boeing aircraft in the next 20 years. cc: Laudate 7 Likes 2 Shares
