SonOfDSoil01:
the same Otedola that ones featured of Forbes list? Pls give me a name of any ibo ever featured in Forbes list. I have always said it here, that you are just a petty illiterate trader that lack basic knowledge when I saw the tread I knew you will be here to compare yourself with peopl doing far better than you but your inferiority complex won’t let you be on this same thread you shamelessly started posting picture of empty building will low activities going on and someone even mentioned it here that most are even ware houses but just to massage your own bruised ego, you change narrative again to it hosting the highest number of indeginous company like that’s is what a state only need to develop. Even almighty America have foreign investors coming to invest and here you are still displaying your ignorance. Indeed you don’t have shame. Other time I even asked you, what is the value of those empty buildings you posted has industries compared to just Agbara industrial estate, till today I have still gotten a sensible response, well not like I was expecting you to have one because I know the level of your education is low and you need to learn if you ready to drop your ego…Arindin

Otedola is far below Tony Elumelu, Ernest Azudialor, Emeka Okwosa, Arthur Eze, Sir Emeka Offor, ABC Orjiakor, Allen Onyema, Jim Ovie, Herbert Wigwe

My dear Ibos make unecessary noise . You claim to be industrialist but migrate out of your region for better economic prospects .stop your noise please . Other tribes have industrialist including Fulani but you don't see them advertising on Nairaland. Industry with no IGR contribution to host state. The food sold in Lagos by Hausa food merchants is more than the turnover of all your industries in the east. I can't buying any engine oil produced in the east despite having few cars buses , hydraulic machines and generators[. I just wonder what all this noise is about.quote author=Bestmanfornow post=127196452]

in your deluded mind, we are talking billionaire in dollars not naira, and you still haven’t answered my question. Which ibo man has ever featured in Forbes list? At least we all know Otedola once featured so pls answer my question and don’t deviate. It’s even an insult to put Otedola in the category of those name mention. You need to upgrade your knowledge you this primitive ibo boy😂

Tell me how Otedola is Billionaire in Dollars

Mention his companies

The hausas and Fulani make a killing from dairy and farm produce worth billions of Naira daily from southwest and other regions of the country but you don't hear any noise from them . They make their money without disturbing the atmosphere with propaganda. Add up your so called sales from all your funny industries in the east does it worth 100 trailers of cows from Kano? You guys should reduce the noise it's just laud for nothing.
I served in the east and I can tell you the poverty is high the frustration is much. The product of the frustration is UGM and IPOB. Why do people from industrial hob of Nigeria prefer to carry guns rather than work in their so called plentiful factories.
The soil is erosion prone , the Ibo people are tribal , clannish and bigoted . The discriminate among themselves practice osu . Their daughters are into prostitution all over Nigeria and Africa. Their men are into drugs worldwide and many criminal enterprises .
Let's stop the unecessary propaganda. Do your business quietly make your money and take it to the east peacefully . It's your place you can stay there if you like .

That's why you tribe is lazy, Chinese, Indians, Americans, UK are across the world investing and repatriate the profit to there countries

Putinofrussia:
Otondo,how will a poor man make noise beside the rich that spends and help the masses.
If one of your fake billionaires spends half of what Otedola spends as gifts and donations,you won't even know they exist again.
You can borrow money to build but not for gifting.
Otedola just recently gifted the orphanage 5 billion naira,rented a yacht for only 3.5 billion for a party...we are not talking about expenses which will still run into billions of naira o.
He just gave his daughter more than 2 billion for enjoyment,gave a university more than 2 billion etc.
If any of your fake billionaires can do half of that,I will agree that they are at least close to being billionaires.

He gave his daughter ....lol Yoruba man


Igbo billionaires are building hospitals ,schools, world-class health facilities free of charges for their villages


Obijackson has the best children hospitals in his village

Okwosa has another


Abeg which one Otedola build for his people to show his riches

Why do they always fool you guys

Yes naa, His mother burial is bigger than that of Bill Gates' mother, which makes him bigger than Bill Gates, i.e Igbo people are the richest people in the world. It's by burial you know success

ariesbull:

Firstly search the number of schools(universities) owned by our billionaires, from Otedola, to Adeleke, adenuga, you don't donate what people don't have, did South Westerners complained to you that there are no hospitals.

ariesbull:

Why do they always fool you guys

Igbo people are known for doing huge burials, and buying the most expensive coffins. They are know for flaunting wealth, and rituals, while there poor people and doubling in population daily, children are out of school learning trade for decades, as per nwa boys learning how to sell spare parts for like 20 years, and sell gala and pure water during the day in Lagos, and dirtying Lagos.

If there are enough good hospitals in South East, a whole former deputy Senate President won't be in prison spending like a decade in it. There are good hospitals, and you land is beautiful, why are all the previous Governors of Anambra not in their States,

ariesbull:


How many of these industries are owned by Ogun indigenes so that we can know what group economics is

Like Anambra 95% of industrial activities there are owned by Anambra folks making the money stay in the state

But in Ogun there is what is called capital flight! Investors pay indigenous folks peanuts ,declare anything as profit then oay paltry tax and repatriate the rest money back to home


So once again how many Ogun people owns industry in Ogun state or are they just workers ?

igwebuike01:

Yorubas are just deceiving themselves. Economic illiteerates

Bestmanfornow:


Empty 🧠🧠

Igbos control indigenous industries in Nigeria, Anambra and Abia are home of indigenous industries in Nigeria
Ignorant mind this one of the industrial estates just in Anambra state control by Igbos

"Anambra is making the money stay in the state"?

Which money?

What money?

Ogun state (with N121bn) generates more than 3 times the IGR that Anambra generates (with N34bn). As a matter of fact, Ogun state generates more IGR than the entire SE states' IGR all added up together (with N115bn combined).

Even quiet, rural, nonindustrial Ondo State (with N33bn) has the same IGR as Anambra.

So who is collecting "paltry tax" then, Einsteins? Ogun or Anambra, illiterate?

Where is the "mega tax" being paid in Anambra na?

Ogun state (with N24.3bn) generates more than 2 times the PAYE tax that Anambra generates (with N11.2bn).

Ogun state (with N2.8bn) generates more than 4 times the Direct Assessment tax (i.e. tax for self-employed people) that Anambra generates (with N0.7bn).

Unemployment rate in Ogun State is 16.4%. Unemployment rate in Anambra State is 44.2%.

Poverty rate in Ogun State is 9.3%. Poverty rate in Anambra (the best for it in SE) is 14.8%.

But you say na you know "Group Economics"? You dey beat chest say "Na we own 95% of the industries"?

Going around shouting you are developing other people’s lands with empty points and you cannot shut up your mouth when they are talking about their successes and not insulting you, you have to just open your mouth to say you are better, when you clearly are not better or developing anything. People like you are truly cursed! Empty chest-beating professionals!

Who be economic illiterates so? Employing “stay at home” protests and killing your own economy, based on orders by some low-IQ illegal migrant fool to Finland, is what would make a people economic Einsteins? While those making money, and your people are rushing to their lands for survival, are the Economic illiterates in your low IQ minds?

igwebuike01:

IGR is never a measure of economic progress.

What is a measure of economic progress? Stay-at-home on Mondays?

igwebuike01:

But Emzor dey. That's what we are talking. They will run one by one and we will take over. Your IGR loving governor is still gallivanting looking for "investors" while Soludo has empowered local youths

While Emzor might be the biggest indigenous pharceutical company, SW dominates the pharmaceutical industry if SW-owned companies' revenues are added together and SE-owned companies' revenues are added together.

Evans Medical + Tuyil + Pharma-Deko + Bentos + Mopson + Morison Industries + Daily-Need Industries + Drugfield = $130m

Emzor + Juhel + Neimeth = $95m

So, when you are sick, you are more likely to be taking foreign or SW-made drugs in Nigeria.

igwebuike01:

No you are wrong. Commercialization distribute wealth and create stronger upper middle class to patronize airport more than industrialization.

Can you repeat this in English please?

Akano5:


SMH, stop taking about that shit called IGR, Nigeria as a whole has the highest IGR in Africa, yet it's the poverty capital of the world...

ask yourself, where does all those monies go?? don't tell me it's because of our population oo.

Please show us your source that Nigeria has the highest IGR in Africa.

Akano5:


Sustain what?? when everything is being embezzle.

For your information, I'm a Yoruba guy who reside in Ogun state, so don't think i'm an Igbo man, so stop all those shit man.

When the people are voting for a daft "Eleyi".

igwebuike01:

All over the world economies are measured in GDP. Taxation only impoverish people more while elites enjoy

So Nigeria has a better economy than Hong Kong, Finland, Portugal, New Zealand, Qatar and co because it has a higher GDP?

Na this one dey talk about "Economic illiterates"? Empty chest-beater.

Bestmanfornow:
Over 75% of the companies in Ogun are owned by foreigners especially Chinese, Indians the rest are owned by other Nigerians

Motorpark experts like to pull statistics from their asses.

If you ask this one now, how he knew it is "over 75%", you will see him start babbling and dodging the question.

Unemployable "yoots".

Bestmanfornow:

I hope you know the difference between CEO and owner, 75% of the industries are owned by foreigners rest are other Nigerians, I just listed the ones in Ogun own by Anambra guys can you mention one industry own by Yoruba man in any industrial layouts in Southeast

Why would any businessman, that is not Igbo, be daft enough to go build his industry in the SE, out of all the location choices available to him?

Your IQ is really low o.

ariesbull:
oh yes ! The people keep their economy and the rest go out to have a chunk of other economies and plough it back to their states

That's economic expansion that's what every reasonable group does

You mean you think the best way for economic success is the Nigerian Japa model?

Na diaspora remittance be your ideal of economic power?

You are a real economic Einstein.

People that have sense would rather have both indigenous ownership and FDI in their economy, where jobs are created, knowledge transfer is rampant, free market forces exist and competition is rife.

Make una go school and work hard, una no go listen. Chei!

But una don study "Group Economics" sha.

ariesbull:
Ogun state should be more developed than this cos of the proximity to Lagos....but they have refused to invest in infrastructure

This is probably the only sensible thing you have said so far.

Bestmanfornow:

Ignorant mind only in your dream, mention industries Yoruba man own outside Yoruba land, you guys busy deceiving yourselves with propaganda

Have sense!

SW is the most desirable place for business and investment in Nigeria by the best investors.

There is no sense in going to invest in SE considering its economic figures, except you already live there or plan to focus your business on selling there.

Not only do Yorubas not waste their time and money going to build industries in SE, hardly any foreigner (be it Americans, British, Italians, Japanese etc.) does. It is an economically weak and irrelevant zone, where its people have to go to other lands for greener pasture.

When a place or country is economically strong and relevant, the result is that you start getting a diversity of people settling there and it would become more cosmopolitan. Think London, New York, Los Angeles, Tokyo, Dubai, Johannesburg etc.

Oyo, Ogun, Osun and Ondo are more cosmopolitan than any SE state. I can bet going to any SE state, you will find that 98%+ of the people living there are Igbos. Just like 98%+ of people living in Tajikistan, Mongolia, Haiti, Burundi, Afghanistan etc. are locals and run all the businesses there, while some migrate abroad for greener pastures and better opportunities. This is because their own places are economically weak and irrelevant zones. It is not something to be proud of and beat your chest about.

Even no one goes to Sokoto, Taraba, Yobe etc. to build anything because they are economically weak and irrelevant zones. Their people own everything there and some migrate to Kano, FCT, Kaduna and Lagos to build their fortunes.

The fact that other tribes are not investing, owning or building in the SE is not something to be proud of!!! It is not a mark of success or progress!

It is sad I had to tell you all these before you know, while beating your chest violently.

Please have sense!

Bestmanfornow:

Anu what do you know, Igbos control trade in Nigeria and indigenous industries

The only indigenous industries that Igbos dominate are (1) Transport, (2) Spare parts, (3) Electronics, (4) Building materials and (5) Hospitality.

Basically, the buy-and-sell, import trades and the simple build-a-small-t sector.

Go and check and come back. You have been fed nonsense chest-beating information.

Viraltrends123:
That's why the 5 richest men and women in Nigeria are igbos, that's why the biggest indigenous companies in Nigeria are owned by Igbos. Or is it because cubana did big burial with 50 cows, LOL.

Bestmanfornow:

You reasons like small baby, please who mention Cuban here
Igbos control trade, indigenous industries, land and air transportation

After deleting the middle one, you are right!

yommen:


You typed all these stories just to discredit others. We know you, bad belle always.

The original post was not even about targeting other tribes. It was simply about highlighting and celebrating the success of one state.

But some people cannot bear not beating their chest and claiming their tribe is better and the best, when they are clearly not.

ariesbull:
I asked a simple economical question

What are the percentage of indigenous peoples that own the industries ! What every government does is apart from attracting investment they try to empower their people to be investment drivers


What are the percentage of Ogun people that owns these industry are they up to 30% which I know it's not up to

There is what we call group economics ! It keeps the money in circulation! Just like when my wanted to move back their profits to South Africa it affected the Forex in Nigeria

No government loves capital flight !


So back to the question...answer this truthfully


HOW MANY INDIGENOUS PEOPLES OF THAT STATES OWN THESE INDUSTRIES

The "Group Economics" you learnt in which state poly?

Bestmanfornow:

Glo is own by IBB,

Banks
Fidelity bank-Peter Gregory Obi
Zenith bank -Jim Okechukwu Ovie
UBA bank - Anthony Onyemaechi Elumelu
Access bank- Herbert Onyewumbu Wigwe

I like the way you try to spell out their full names with their middle names.

I know why you did that. You are desperate.

In reality, you know Wigwe and Elumelu will tell you they are not Igbos!
