One thing she said that is correct - Nigeria has an Ibo problem. Yoruba have been trading in Lagos - their land for over 500 years in a free market culture. Local and international. That was what allowed Ibos to prosper in Lagos. We won't change our culture for you. We know how to deal we every cheat at the appropriate time. For now you have to compete with Chinese. Happy competing.

I alway tell you to do your research very well before you come out for your foolishness at a time you said you should have call it Nigeria problem but decided to call it Igbo problem and you’re not far from that. The same Igbos that drove the Yorubas away from their ancestral land and took over without allow them in same market are the same you want them to join them to fight the Chinese. You must be joking. If Yoruba fight back people like you will be shouting marginalization and they left them with their problems so let them face the Chinese and anyone found causing problem should be arrested and prosecuted

E be like say na one ibo trader dey fry your ponmo. Nigerian market is 250M people. They can take their expensive fake goods to the east. Why pay more when you can pay less.

I don’t know about South Africa. I met a Yoruba man selling land peacefully in Ghana. I also know a woman in the Ho Volta region with Ogbomoso tribal marks who has been selling provisions there for more than 50 years. The peaceful coexistence of Yoruba people is great. I know prominent Yoruba people in Accra who have been doing successful business for years without any problems. It’s an Igbo problem everywhere in the world.

Enough of this gaslighting. The ones that happened in Ghana and South Africa were done by the Ibos. Now that their exploitation have been exposed, u are all screaming. Let Nigerians breath abeg. Enough of this.

The place is called an Int'l Trade Fair, and not "Ibo trade fair" for a reason. Therefore, if those greedy Ibo traders do not want to compete with the Chinese, they should pack their okrika and fake goods, and relocate back to their 5-plot region. Shikena

The problem is those ibos are reapers, they buy jean 2k from china and sell 40k to Nigerians. Now Nigerians are tired and wants to deal directly with the manufacturers.

Madam your brothers are greedy and wicked. Firstly ibos are good in dishing out what they can’t take, in Ghana they sell lower to attract consumers while in Nigeria they sell higher bcos no regulation to challenge them. If china truly decided to come to Nigeria they’re welcome.

I haven’t you making videos condemning all the fake products, drinks, medications, baby formula some ibo people are producing and the crazy price they put on items. FYI, Chinese are here to say and if they can’t compete, they can relocate to another region.

You are saying nonsense. First and foremost we all know that 99% of the pple affected in that market are Ibo scammers called businessmen. Secondly, when a group of Yoruba men were cheated out of that market u didn't come out like this callin out Ur Ibo biz men.

In a sane environment; there won't be fake products leading to an epidemic of kidney problems! While Yoruba men worked in civil service, our mothers traded; overtime, some people came and destroyed their business by manufacturing and importing fake products! U are now Nigerians!

They can report the china to government if they feel they have broken any laws. In the UK Japanese can bring their car here and sell which is Cheaper than the UK dealers in fact, China car has reduced Range Rover sales. Am not sure your honest with your opinion but defending trib

So we should keep buying 5k Jean for 25k just to make your arrogant and greedy Ibo brothers happy right? Your people are all over the place abusing us, saying all sorts of nonsense about us yet can’t leave our region. We want Chinese traders and that’s it.

Very funny indeed! Yes, we have problem with the culture of cheating, aggression and playing victim card when confronted with the same situation. For now, na Sidon look & see how far the Chinese can go in stopping the nonsense called business sense.

First. This take is base off emotions, there's no economical rules or law that Says foreigners can't compete in a free marker. An I saw what you did you use US as a reference point when you want to given an example , the Chinese are only doing what they do
