A bitcoin vendor, Gaius Chibueze has called on Igbos to learn how to invest in their home region, the southeast geopolitical zone.
He made this known in a tweet where he mentioned that one can still love Nigeria and still develop their regions.
He hailed the northerners and the westerners for doing so and slammed southeasterners who he accused of having half of their investments outside their home regions.
He revealed a side fact— that Igbos make up a huge chunk of estate owners in the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja.
See full tweet below:
“You can promote Regional Development without making it a Tribal War”, Chibueze started.
“I have always advocated that every Region should develop itself. The West Does this The North Does this except Ndi Igbo who have over 50% of its own Investments Outside Igboland.
“When I saw data of estate owners in Abuja water run down my eyes!
“As a young Igbo person ask yourself how many young persons from the West or North comes to Anambra, Ebonyi Enugu, Imo or Abia to Buy Land and build Estates? Almost zero but for Ndi Igbo its 90%.
“An Igbo man is currently on a tour in the USA to get Money from Igbo Diaspora to come Invest in Real Estate in Abuja and Lagos! That’s not smart.
“Those are the things I am against. I love every Nigerian but will put the Igbo Agenda first every time!
“A friend from the West made a Joke that Igbos have Finished opening Lagos now they have started Opening Ogun State boundary with Lagos Bushes and he is right. Go to Ogun state!
Ndi Igbo you can still love Nigeria and develop your Land, it’s still part of Nigeria!
