MadamExcellency:
Many of those buying the properties were born and bred in Yorubaland, and many haven't set foot on Igboland.

If you investigate further, it's their Yoruba wives forcing them to buy those properties to maintain family connections. So chill, these sets of Igbo millennials are not coming back to Igboland, just one visit in two or three years.

Lolzzzzz, story. The entire Yorubaland is being bought up by Igbos

NSK4U:


Lol........ You are really embittered, but I would just advise, stop selling your land since you rely heavily on government and its policies.......but I know you can't because you campaign for rubbish and agberos to represent you for tribal jokes during election instead of competence. Igbos don't necessarily rely on government like you and might not have your kind of pain when they start 0ll
showing you shege........ nobody is forcing you to sell your land, it's something you can stop all by yourself.

You are the ones deceiving yourselves of buying up land from Yorubas who you and your ancestors have always seen as being superior to you Igbos just to shore up your identity.You don't shout buying up Kano,Akwa Ibom etc.
People will continue to sell land for business especially when they know they can take back the land soon or even revoke its certificate if they even have one.
If you go Indonesia or India to carry powder and buy land in Yorubaland,they will sell to you,wash your hand clean because they know that it is just for some years when they collect another money or take back their land.
Ask baba Ojuku.
Even Russia assets have been taken over in other lands.
Develop your scanty Igboland but na the place that is already more developed than your region you are deceiving yourself on.

Continue to deceive yourself,sir.

Dear Yorubas, please on behalf of Igbos I am begging you people to please come to my state and help us to develop our real estate. We need investors who are ready to buy lands at any cost and build beautiful mansions, schools, hospitals, factories, markets, malls, etc.



Yorubas love investing in establishing schools, please we need more universities in Southeast, tell Winners, Redeem, Adeleke family and other prominent Yorubas to come to Southeast and buy lands and build schools and hostels for us please. We are pleading. We need serious development and investment from none Igbos in Southeast so that you guys can help us to be pressuring Nigerian federal government to revamp our federal roads. This is the only way Nigeria can develop.


As Igbos are busy buying lands in Southwest, rich Yoruba sons and daughters should invade Southeast and buy lands there too and take over.


Owerri Imo state have a lot of lands for sale to any interested buyer; be it Hausa, Yoruba, Ijaw, Kanuri.


Awka have lands for sale.


Enugu too have a lot of lands in beautiful areas for sale


Please go there and buy lands and take over Igbo land please

Allow them to keep lamenting. I know a few Yorubas who own properties in ìgbo land. My former landlord in Owerri is from Osun state

SmartPolician:


Igbos who go about buying properties outside the SE are some of the most foooolish ones. Na dem go still cry later.

I second this motion. After seeing the handwriting on the wall after tinubu won the election, I sold off my properties in Yorubaland. Right now, I have around 13 plots in Badagry and I'll dispose of them soon too

Nobody reigns forever. Afterall Egypt used to be owned by blacks until something like this happemed and they became nearly non-existent. Praise the ibos for buying up those properties. I grew up at oke ado, near the Nigerian tribune. Most of the houses there built by middle class yorubas had been deserted. I grew up meeting some of them shut, even till i left Ibadan. I've never seen any of the owners around. Most of their children lived abroad while some had even nationalised and died there. None of their children is ing home. I baba obisesan's house at lodge street. He was a notable politician during the awo era. His children, who are already very old, still visit once in a while, while grandchildren aren't even aware such a house exists there. Late Mr Odusote, the owner of the popular odutote bookstores Ltd, the largest bookstores in africa in that era, located at oke bola opposite pa awo's house was on the next street to ours in oke ado. Though he forced 2 of his children to return home and manage his business, none of them lives in the mansion anymore. It's their mechanic who lives there alone, the house that used to be bubbling. They're all living at bodija. One of them is commissioner under sanwoolu, Lere Odusote. All his siblings live abroad while the females among them married white Americans. I was close to them

There's Mr olatunde agbeja's house too near college crescent. That place is deserted now. His children are all overseas. Only one of them is around, who owns Boff Insurance brokers. He doesn't even live there.

There's this fountain boreholes ltd. The man made sure all his children who went to school in America returned home. They're now managing the man's business. There are several houses at idi ope that are deserted now, they're buying them like no man's business, especially from barr aribisala lodge downwards.

There are many reasons I like igbos as a yorubaman. They're more homy than we are. They are more united than we are and more enterprising. You cannot take all these qualities away from them. If they lived all their lives abroad, they must return home and they always look back. They invest home. Unlike us, once we enter UK or America, we pack everything along with us and forget to come back. The current japa syndrome is going to affect us in futhre cos many won't think of coming back again. Their children will refuse to come back if they didn't build the culture into them. I read of a woman doing cleaning job in the LSE who was accused of stealing a bracelet today, which she actually didn't steal but gave them back after they asked if she saw it and she said yes. She was sacked. This woman is 72 years old for God's sake. What's she still doing there at 72? She entered UK early 70s. Igbos won't do that. They'd rather be visiting at that age.

We need to have a rethink. We welcome strangers but we don't learn from them. An ibo man would come to our land with a pair of tros, learn trading and by the time he's done, he opened a small shop sleep and cook there. We say we're going to omo ibo shop to buy this and that. Omo ibo will open 2nd shop and put his brother there, then rent a room apartment. As business grows, he occupies a flat and welcomes his brothers. Before you know it, he'll approach the landlord and ask him to sell the property to him. He'll offer an attractive sum and the landlord will sell it to him. Before you know it, omo ibo has pulled it down and erected a hotel or a warehouse or a shopping complex there , build his own house, etc.

While all these were happening, the landlord couldn't release one of his children to learn same trade omo ibo is doing. He thinks there's no money there or a waste of time. They'd now be threatening them for occopying their land. No be God go punish such people? Awon ole, ọlę gbogbo.

We don't help each other, afi oyinbo bi opęęre. Where are you from, who's your father, what does he do, which state are you from...even when you're speaking yoruba, he's responding in English cos he doesn't want to help you. Once an ibo man says keedu to his brother, that's all. My head of technical department is ibo and we travel.the world together, very honest and hardworking. I also have fellow yorubas in the team. It's high time we began to learn from each other. They may not know book, but they know business and how to make it legit. They now go to school too

I am not against investing in other people's country or land but the problem I have with igbos is this.
When they come to a new place ,they live ,try to buy off or influence everyone. They never go back home .they can stay somewhere for 25 years before thinking of visiting home and before then,they must have brought extra 100 people to the same town. Thereby overcrowding the locals .they don't even do reasonable or atax paying business .but small unchecked shops all over and crime hidden underneath.
They replicate all this world and it's annoying .it's parasitic .they should change .that's why locals are always against them.

Why complaining who is selling, ghost abi

Mrfixitt:
Tribalism and religion have finished Nigeria

Tribalism and religion have finished Nigeria

Fact

This is just clear foolishness..
Why complaining over irrelevant issues

friday2011:
Chaii, this kain narrative dey vex me, shey dem put knife for there neck that they must sell there land or property? I dey shame for yorubas spreading this narrative.

I wonder

LagosOrigin:

Do you have ancestral land in Lagos , please I want to buy

Have you eaten?

Nothing like BIAFRA... We all are Nigerians.
Anyone can buy and live anywhere he chooses in Nigeria.
An Igbo Man has the right to habit anywhere either North, South, East nor west.

Igbos have the tradition of settling and developing anywhere they find peace.

Nobody is taking over Yoruba land... Igbos are only part of development of the land and enjoying their constitutional privileges.

ukaface:

Na spirit of fear
No blame them
They fear the unknown too much

Three much sef.

I don’t even encourage any sensible Igbo to buy land and build outside south east.

As an Igbo person and you love real estate, why not buy it and resale to them and make your profit back instead of building to live.

Who told you not to do the same? Read my post above. We're the ones doing ourselves not the ibos. They're really innocent

I will say this in a much more comfy Nigerian language. 1 to Ibos buying up. Buy
2 Yorubas welcoming them. E tu le fun wan
3. To oppositional thoughts .. recognize opportunity.
4. To future landowners lease don't sell

For those who are interested, I will like to buttress this point as I have also learned one or two on this platform ..

For able businessmen or private party interested in buying because they see a future.. keep buying. For those who are willing and wants to sell, sell justifiably. After all we all Nigerians , even if oyinbo people instigate because of one thing or the other, they are still strangers. For ones advocating against, recognize the opportunity, you can be an agent, a broker of deal, a land owner family, and need the finance to build forward, and can't negotiate for long, grab the opportunity which in turns leads to the last group, if you have a land, do you know up to 32 story high you own the land and it's airspace.? It's simple logic, which cost more an airport or it's airspace that's why you lease.. by leasing the land for 50years and it's airspace, you can get double of what you will see the land for with a proper legal framework as a backbone.. in 50 years a lot can be discovered on the land, telecommunication network for example. Not talking about the ones already in use but ones yet to come. Technology has taking over the world, and it needs land for assimilation. Data centers is just one of it's child. A lot are on the way. When you lease, you retain your land, and still insure future revenue.. with solid legals works rights and works ni o.. even the paper works alone is a collateral. So if you own a land.. regardless where you are in the world.. don't sell.. lease it out

ukaface:

They want Biafra, so why don’t they have it? Is it by developing the region that Biafra will happen?
Tell your people or the govt to give them the Biafra na.

the place that will be called Biafra already exists so it is better to concentrate on developing that place instead of causing unrest there which will favor wyte people that want the gas and oil resources in the place.

Mrfixitt:

There is nothing wrong with Tribalism, if the Tribe develop their own regions

If you don't want them to buy dont sell simple, why lamenting na

zumbigbo:
If a person from Michigan buys land in Florida. Will Floridians lament and begin cracking skulls?

If a person from Lyon buys land in Auxerre. Will the Auxerrois lament and begin cracking skulls?

If a person from Suffolk buys land in Leeds. Will the Yorkshiremen lament and begin cracking skulls?

My brother please give me connection na, i want travel out and hustle. I am from Imo state, based in Delta state.
I need to develop my bro, it's too hard here....

sulaak:

African man mentality.

helinues:
They want to develop Oke ado as they have finished developing their region

The last time I went to my village, I was surprised to see the Igbo's in their numbers, we used to have Hausa/Fulani( They have their territory, then mostly NC people Benue precisely can't even encountering any Igbo's back then

Charity don't mean anything

It's natural to migrate, same in my village in Imo, Yorubas are everywhere mostly into building, and keep marrying our girls. Change is constant

Eriokanmi:

Bigmouth3 is right..

The only ones that have money among them are their politicians, senators, state senators e.t.

Most of their money is from crime. If the i_b_0 man is arrested the children may not want to have anything to do with the house because they see it as proceeds from crime and will end up selling the house back to Y_0_r_u_ba people.

Another problem is the person buying the SW house may have been a kidnapper in the SElooking to expand his kidnapping business to the SW like evans..

A kidnapper from SE was caught 2 weeks ago and in his house in the SE. He had an empty soak-away filled will dead bodies of his fellow i_b_o_s that he had kidnapped and killed.

And these are the same people you claim are united.

Is the Ibadan not in Nigeria ?
Or the Igbos not Nigerians

Na wa

Igbos always thinking that Yorubas are superior and richer than them and the only way they can ridicule Yoruba is to say that they have bought up their land...lol
Yet Yoruba continue to dominate all money-spinning sectors like Education,Music,ICT,Nollywood,Real business etc leaving only petty business for them.

You may be right but every tribe is also guilty of such crimes. True or false? The onus is on us to learn from them legitimately. How many Yorubas are selling car or car parts at ladipo or elsewhere? What of building materials? These are regular needs and money spinning business areas we're not looking into. You don't need juju or rituals to thrive in it. Only a few of our people who ventured into it never regretted it. I don't need ti mention names. You know them. I'll remind you of Elizade,.metropolitan, etc. They're billionaires today.

Yorubas in the SE are just a handful and they always come back to Yorubaland.
Igbos are fleeing their Igboland.They are in their millions in Yorubaland and they are still coming.
Americans and Britons are crying for their govts to deport the immigrants because their number is getting larger and larger everyday.
When visitors' population begins to overwhelm that of the owners,then there is a looming danger especially if the visitors have negative tendencies.
