He said, “whatever anybody says, the Igbos are a unique people in the country. God forbid, if Nigeria should break, they are the only nation that can survive because they are industrious people. ” All the permanent structures found everywhere are owned by the Igbo people. Wherever you go in the country, you will find an igbo man there.
