Igbo big boys living life as it’s suppose to be,check out the top 10 richest Igbo big boys of 2021 right here.
The Igbo boys in Nigeria are popularly known
for one thing — business. Apart from the
predominantly Igbo South-Eastern Nigeria,
there is hardly any state where you will not
find the Igbo boys in one business or the other.
Even in Northern Nigeria, you will find them.
These seemingly small businesses, which range
from clothing to selling construction fittings,
have brought many from this tribe to financial
stability.
Another interesting fact about Igbo boys is that
they are not afraid to share business secrets
with one and another. Their apprenticeship
system is one of the best informal business
education systems in the world. This culture of
lifting one another is not just with the common
Igbo business folks. Even amongst their big
billionaires, they help and establish one
another.
This is why the Igbo tribe has many rich
people. From the elderly men like Tony
Elumelu. Cosmas Maduka, and co, to younger
chaps like Obi Cubana, Jowi Zaza , and the likes.
In this article, we will be looking at the
younger chaps — the richest Igbo big boys.
