ASARI DOKUBO RESPOND TO AHMED GUME - COMPlAINT AGAINST IGBOS.

"Igbos were allowed to establish businesses and live in other parts of Nigeria peacefully. However, they deny other tribes from simple owning shops in ALL EASTERN MARKETS!

Yes! I have gone to many eastern markets for ethnic survey. And no single shop is or was allocated to non Igbo. Please if there is one market with non Igbo, please mention" - #Ahmed Gume

How many shops do Hausa or Yoruba people own in Cameroon, Ghana, Togo, South Africa, Malawi, Sierra-Leone, Gabon UK, United States, Japan, Singapore, Malaysia, Hong-kong, Thailand, Indonesia, Germany, China, Taiwan, South Korea, India and countless other countries all over the world.

Those are not Igbo areas after all. Perhaps, they deny you shops like the Igbo did in all these countries. Igbos own shops and do business in those countries.

This is exactly how lazy people complain when they fail in business. If you can't compete on your own land, how are you going to do that in Igboland or neutral ground?

Every Igbo city has a place exclusively mapped out for Hausas free of charge for temporary use (that is the truth they will not tell you). Of course you know, Hausa man has his own pattern of business and shops mostly in form of kiosk where he sold his patty trades and provisions on free given portion of the street.

Another good business they do in the east is money exchange and cattle business which they control in every Igbo city on a free given land; 100% fact. Go to Owerri, Umuahia, Enugu, Awka. Nnewi. Aba etc.

Igbos don't wait for free land or free portion to be allocated to them, they buy them from indigenes who always have it free by inheritance or by allocation but doesn’t know what to do with them. Only quota system worthless person will wait for allocation before he starts a business.

How many shops do Hausas have in Lagos and other south west states? or do the Yoruba deny them shops too? Can you compare the number of shops and markets owned by Hausas in Yoruba land to the number owned by the Igbos?

Igbos rent shops from the landlords. Igbos Buy lands from the host to build shops. Igbos buy land from their host to build markets. Igbos don't wait for shop or land allocations to start up their businesses.

How many markets has the Hausa built in Lagos? None. How many markets has the Yoruba build in the north? None or do the Hausa and the Yoruba deny selling land to one another too, like the Igbos denied them?

But Igbo have used their money to buy lands from south west and north and build many markets that helps to develop their regions.

To be honest, not every Igbo traders in south west or north can compete with the traders in the east. The traders in the east are real geniuses in trading. They are wizards in buying and selling more than those Igbo traders in the west and north.

You have to first compete with the Igbo traders in your own territory before you think of competing with them in their own territory.

Business is based on competition, the question is, can you compete? There are shops in Onitsha main market but can you afford to rent it? Even when you do what do you intend to sell to regain your profit?.

Is it igbo man that sacrifice to be single till the age of 40 to balance his business achievements before marriage you want to compete with? Igbo man who wear warn out cloths with bathroom slippers to save money for his bussiness? Or the one that maintain just one wife you choose to compete with?....The one that married, how many children do they agreed to born, all are the sacrifices in order to save more for his business.

Nobody compete with the fulanis in their cow business or you think they don’t make money in that? Please leave the igbos alone, business is their God given talent.
We are Biafrans!!!.

Hahahahahahaha.

See finishing...

Finished talk, nothing to add or subtract. Is due to their laziness and unpatriotic manners in which they handle business.

Igbo Amaka

The fact is that Igbos are born business men. I was astonished when I went to Togo. Businesses there were dominated by the Igbos .. same in Cameroon and other places ..

Tell them!
A bottle of cheval blanc served to the masters for you

U deserved it.

Jealousy on someone's sweat brings generational curses

. Igbos were allowed to establish businesses and live in other parts of Nigeria peacefully. However, they deny other tribes from simple owning shops in ALL EASTERN MARKETS!

To an extent, this is true, but at the same time not true.

In eastern states, you will find "Hausa markets" but those markets apart from being small in size , the shops are usually scanty built. Infact most Hausas are hawkers only. No major property to hold them back in case of war.

This bastard called asaro or whatever can't make point without reference to yoruba people what the hell how this matter concern yoruba.

Whoever wrote this piece summarized d Igbos business tactics

“We are Biafrans”

My Ijaw brothers is that true?

The markets are scanty cos they’ve refused to build, there’re also available plots in Eastern towns for sale but because of the so called “sense of war”, most wealthy Hausas will rather live in make shift houses and repatriate their funds home.

Zone-bees right now.....

NEF and MURIC right now.....


Asari has said it all....

Ibos love to deceive themselves, feeling like they know how to do business. There type of business is the reason the economy is not growing, it is one of the reasons the naira keeps losing value. Trade can never be balanced with their type of business hence the perpetual loss in the value of naira. They import all the nonsense abroad because of their extreme love for money. If not for crude oil, they would have killed the naira totally. Hausa/Fulani aint lazy, they are farmers , not even peasant farmers like your folks, they are mechanized farmers. 80% of all the cash crops that are being exported out of Nigeria are found there, 80% of the mineral resources too. They are not interested in the media. They face their business and do it well. Do you know the number of trucks of cattle, yams, onions, ginger, etc that get to Lagos per day. I am sure no. Asari and uninformed southerners are not aware. Farming; crop and livestock is a legacy that can be passed to the next generation. Owning of shops to sell battered metals (spare parts) and second hand clothes aint a legacy and will die naturally as Nigeria develops. Don't get carried away with your unstructured businesses.....

They keep saying they have businesses abroad, i live in Europe, i don't know where the businesses are here. Yea they travel to China for substandard commodities and bring them to Nigeria to sell. What is igbo man business in Malaysia?? Lol

Yoruba man in 'sifia pains'...What else will necessitate this epistle except jealousy and envy..

A simple article from Asari Dokubo(whom i care less about) has your guts all twisted up in bitterness.

Federal character
Quota system
Catchment area
Political wuruwuru all across board.

These are the only things that give Hausafulanis edge over every other ethnic groups in Nigeria.
Any competitive endeavours would always be southerners as winners because Hausafulanis are hate open competition without corrupted leadership twist.

I owe this guy a glass of champagne for this response.
This is world class. Hausas only rely on free lands in Igbo land but Igbos buy lands in Hausaland, that is the difference between laziness and hardwork my people.

When that Igbo boy without help is hawking on the streets, they mock him or taunt him with 4x4 shop but when God blesses him and he begins to buy their properties, then the accommodators and their likes will start crying 'Igbo man is too proud.' Nonsense!

My cone head is in sifia pains
And my amala taste so bitter tonight
Hoooohhhmmm

Igbos also import all the things they sell in China, USA, Gabon, UK, Trinidad & Tobago, Japan, Senegal, Ivory Coast, Kenya, Swaziland, Sao Tome, Togo, Cameroon, Barbados, etc So in all the countries of the world where Igbos excel in business, it is only by selling fake products that Igbos are succeeding even outside Nigeria

Have you ever been to Aba, Nnewi, etc Visit and see Igbo indigenous technology taking place. Have you heard of Made in Aba products that Cameroonians, Kenyans, Chadians, etc do come down to Aba to buy Chinese made products is even killing Made in Aba products that used to be popular.

At Nnewi, Igbos are building products using Igbo indigenous technology and craft, that was how Innoson Motors came to rise. There are hundreds of other smaller unknown Igbo Indigenous factories and productions plants in Nnewi, Awka, Aba, Emene Enugu, etc. Some manufacture automobile parts locally fabricated....some manufacture locally fabricated electrical parts, including spare parts fo motorbikes, bicycles, etc, make a visit to these places I named and see things for yourself and you will begin to respect Igbos more.

Even at Ladipo spare parts market in Lagos, Igbos are doing local fabrication there....doing wonders in Yoruba land too...why can't you visit and see for yourself

Visit South Korea, specifically itaewon city and see how many factories owned by Igbos in far away Korea. Most of the Igbos that own factories in Korea are silent billionaires who rarely visit Nigeria but are confirmed IPOB members, visit and find out.

It is only among Igbo tribe in Nigeria that you will see a rich man who does not even know the Local Government Chairman or governor of his state because his wealth is not linked to politics or government help....but name one rich and famous Hausa, Fulani, Yoruba man that made his money solely by himself without the help of politics, government either through Niger Delta crude oil, political contracts, political appointments, just name one or two.

But Igbos will on their own travel to far away cities and fold the sleeves of their shirts, fold their trousers, forget women, forget marriage, never go home for years and focus on learning one or two businesses, then they spend years or even decades doing that business until they perfect it and gradually become rich without the help of Nigerian government or politics.....while their Hausa, Fulani and Yoruba counterparts are busy using their political connections to secure federal government jobs, contracts, government appointments and favors....and later they turn around to say Igbos don't do good business or that Igbos are ritualists.

Yes we have some unscrupulous Igbos who engage in drug trafficking, we have them in all tribes and races of the world too...and yes Igbos outnumber other Nigerian tribes in drug trafficking....but Yorubas are the stakeholders of money ritual, so every tribe have their vices....but when it comes to business, give it up for Igbos if you are honest to yourself.

Anyway, I have discovered something in Nigeria; other Nigerian tribes must have a reason to hate on Igbos

Igbos take risks. They are the first to travel to cities and countries you can ever think of while you are in Nigeria forming Omonile and Oba that doesn't leave his region because his region is paradise for him according to your people.

Igbos are risk takers. They take risks you can't even imagine to startup their business.

For instance, me I am Igbo, I have Yoruba, Hausa, Fulani friends, some I schooled together with, others I did NYSC with and some I worked with during my working days.

While I decided to quit working to build my own business and company of my dream, my friends and mates from Yoruba, Hausa, etc tribes continued looking for new bigger pay jobs to earn fatter salaries with less risk and stress, some got federal government juicy jobs based on their political connections.

They took that route because it is easier, risk free, more dignifying and rewarding at the moment.

At least they dress corporate, put on ties, glittering shoes, clean ride, clean bag and organized office work with good pay.

They have time to go on vacations during their work leave, they post luxury pictures on Facebook, they get lots of likes and comments and respect for being working class.

While I folded my trousers, damned the fact that I am a graduate, threw away my certificates one side, shove pride aside and working hard on my goals.

Tomorrow when my company grows to become a big brand, people like you will come to analyze how Igbos don't do good business or how they are money ritualist.

If not for politics, Igbo man would have been the richest man in Nigeria. Dangote became so rich, all thanks to his political family background and helps he got from various northern controlled federal government for decades.

Same with most Yoruba billionaires; all their wealth can be traced to Niger Delta crude oil, u can quote me any time, any day

Imagine this life without Olosho

If these GUYS truly hate the IGBOS, why not call them and ask them to leave NIGERIA like the PHARAOH did...??
Is it to big to ask...??
IGBOS have always requested to leave Nigeria, yet no way...
Why not voluntarily ask them to leave

Jealousy will finish this one. Go anywhere in Europe you see Igbo businesses, we have cattle farmers in Italy ,Netherlands etc. Because of this RUGA issue guys from Europe running massive farmlands have been posted video to show Buhari how cattle ranching is done. When it comes to business we are not your mate. Go to Cotonou and see how many properties are owned by Igbos. Former President of Togo Gnasingbe Eyadema gave Igbos everything to make we remain in Togo to boost his country economy.

Asari talkam as e be! British will say "bang on!" it is also expository essay to those other Nigerians who know little or nothing about Igbos business dynamics. It is highly competitive.
