Why has the ibo man been neglected

In every developed society today, the aim of every right thinking government is to see that, development does not exceed its people. In the case of Nigeria, its like we have slept for so long.
During the Civil war the biafrans were creative even with the production of oil which they used for their maintenance during the course of the war. One thing that baffles ones imagination is the way the ibo man has been able place himself comfortable in times of hardship. Everywhere you look, the ibo man always stands out. Whoever has ever visited Aba or Nnewi would understand what i mean.

This guys are creative as they manufcture their own cloths in a certain warehouse after which they are taken outside the shores of this country and bought again at a cheaper rate. This goes for the so called Gio Gio Amani shirts and accessories which we say "lai lai i can never were made in Aba'. it baffles me how gullible Nigerians could be. You saying you can't were Aba made stuffs kills the hopes of this guys which is why they put on their thinking caps and go into various businesses,
The average Ibo man or woman is a potential enterpreneur and its like our leaders have not seen towards that line of actively investing in industries in the East.
Did you know that, since the Police force was created, no ibo man has been made an Inspector General of police?
Did you also know that, its is only the lagos port which handle import duties? This is a clear case of greed as there are other ports in Port harcourt, Calabar wallow away.
Again during the war like i said oilo was drilled locally and today, when refineries are to be constructed, the run to foreigner and lavish our funds.
If the government of Yar'adua likes this country, he had better face reality and change the statusquo or else something bigger than what he can handle would hit him. ( maybe a revolution)
Se fini and adios

The country will never get its act together untill we all see each other as one brother, one nation, one people, above all, one tree of so many branches but with one source of root. regardless of any tribe, we re all ONE NATION with one common intrest (betterment of Naija). Naija 4 life.
The truth has to be said, the igbos re bin negelected for a while. despite that, they re doing pretty well. can you imagine if the igbos re bin given the equal opporunities as others, what this beautiful great nation would ve turn to.

Goodluck happens when preparedness meets opportunity.

Opportunity are always created.

Igbos are not neglected, we neglected ourselves.

I wont say much, at least not for now.

ladies and gentlemen, It is well known for all the continent of Africa that Ibos are not neglected rather be the pillar of Nigeria for sure.in my own understanding, why things are so hard for us is our selfishness, Ibo can only concentrate on he/her own, they do not care for another person problems, that is why, sometime we find things very difficulty. finally, Ibos are still the light of this country no matter the difficulty and the intimidations that strolling in our part.
