ROYAL CALL

Bring your Investments Home-Obi of Onitsha charges Ndi Igbo!!!
The Obi of Onitsha, Igwe Nnaemeka Achebe, has
lamented that why the Igbos have over 70 per cent of
their investments outside their homeland, non-Igbos
had not deemed it necessary to come to the South-
East to invest.
The royal father, who spoke yesterday at the
inaugural conference and presentation of a two-
volume book: “Igbo Nation: History and Challenges of
Rebirth and Development” at Igbozurume Unity
Centre in Enugu, advised his people to act on the
many good ideas they have.
While enjoining Igbos to think home instead of
developing other lands where they sojourn, Igwe
Achebe observed that the spread of Igbos and their
investments in other lands have attracted them envy
and hatred as was seen in the recent Xenophobic
attacks in South Africa.
He was emphatic that the Igbos must develop their
domain educationally, commercially, as well as direct
politicians on how they want to be governed.
