Why did you modify your vitriolic comment?
This is a SE only thread, your kind, your very kind , is not wanted.

Throwback:
How do you expect the Igbos to think home, when the wealth that they are using to even develop their villages, is from the commerce they are engaged in outside Igboland, within Nigeria or Abroad.

How can you think home when you fled home to escape poverty?

The best that can happen is to continue to work harder outside of home, to be financially empowered to send more money home.

Putinofrussia:


Thank you.How do you know that it is false.
Are you a statistician or you are just judging by face value?

If I may tell you,if one judges by face value,Nigeria should not be the poverty capital of the world but statisticians have their methodologies and to top it all,has the SE ever been less poverty stricken than SW?

There were times that the south east was poorer than the south west especially for the first 25 years after the civil war. Now its a different story. The NBS director has serious questions to answer about the data that he produced and the sample size that he used.

They are.

At the same time, we must or rather all the entrepreneurs should start thinking of strategic investments home. Investments in Services and industry. An average igbo is rich enough to buy the same services that people rush to lagos to create. Why cant we create it here. Is it a mental trap? What is so attractive about Lagos that Enugu city does not have. Why cant we utilize our middle class. Why are the governors not coming up with plans to attract rich igbo, en away from lagos like Peter

What’s attract other Nigerians to Lagos

Large market
sea port
International airport
Boarder with other African countries

Na wetin the keep majority of Nigeria in Lagos.

How many none yorubas live in other Yoruba states?

This as a result of 1970 arrangement.

princdebola201:
70% of south east region is just for residency. significance amount of the houses in SE re owned by igbos who work outside south east region.
There is little or no major economic activities going on in south east region.
An average igbo is a trader. 90% of the sucessfull businessmen /women in south east have their investments outside the region.
You can blame the 5 states governors for having IGR equivalent of ogun state.
Tax from trading cannot add any meaningful thing to the government coffers.
The way igbos hustling outside of SE re building redudant houses in their tiny region, 10yrs to come there will be no land for economic activities in the region

Enugu is a poor state. Their rural areas are poverty-stricken but some mistakenly believe that Enugu city is representative of Enugu state. Economically, Abians are doing much better than Enuguites though it looks like Abia has been cursed with wicked leaders. Ebonyi is a backward state. Their ruthless governor is busy stealing for himself and his family while poverty and disease kills his people. Anambra state is not where it ought to be but that can change if their people can stop investing in Lagos. Imo is the only state with promise as our IGR and job creation is set to take a leap with the coming on stream of Shell gas and Waltersmith refinery which will create economic boom across the state. Owerri is currently the best city in southern Nigeria.

complete trash.i come from ibagwa aka in the nsukka area of enugu.all my life i have never seen poverty as portrayed by this stat.mind u it's a rural area.u guys just let yoruba media brain wash ur lots.

ificatchmodeh:



You’re not making sense ...
So incoherent... are you on drugs?

nijabazaar:



Hmmm,

But we can still manufacture and export to Lagos. Set the production in SE and export. Not set production in Lagos and export to SE.

Maybe a country of ours is the best option.

franchasng:
Don't believe any Nigerian government body's data, it is always filled with assumptions and the statisticians' perception not always the fact and reality.



Nigeria does not have any accurate data record of anything, from population to poverty index to any data.


Nigerian government body data are usually manipulated by politicians for their political gains, so don't bother yourself with data from NBS, it is complete nonsense!


If you want to know which Nigerian state is doing well or bad, step out of your comfort zone and travel to other states communities not just the capital city. Visit like 10 LGAs in the state and you will have a real life story to tell.

We are so insignificant and yet you hop on every SE thread? Isn't that one of the numerous signs of Alzheimer's

manuelreports:
A Yoruba man begging Igbos to take their money Home. Now let me tell you, for over five years now or above there has been a massive investment drive into South East. Go to Agu Awka and see what is going on there, go to New Market side in Enugu, go to Owerri, go to Abakaliki. Had it been I don't frequent these areas I would have not doubted your story .

As for that stats by NBS, even a primary school drop out knows it is a caricature of statistics as a profession. I didn't even mention classic houses springing up in different Villages inIgbo Land.
