THE IGBO ENTREPRENEURSHIP SYSTEM - The Strategy That Built Obi Cubana
Have you ever wondered …
How did the Igbo people rise from losing everything after the war, to becoming one of the most entrepreneurial tribes in Africa?
Let me tell you a story.
So After the Nigerian civil war, the Igbos were left with nothing. According to history, people who had thousands in their accounts were only given £20. Businesses destroyed. Hope shattered.
That’s how the new system treated them; broke, broken, and abandoned.
They didn’t sit down and complain.
They started again.
From scratch. From the ground up.
That's the spirit of the Igbo Chi.
But they didn’t do it alone.
They used a system, one powerful principle:
“Never Leave Your Brother.”
If you’re selling biscuits and need to buy Lipton, you go to your brother’s shop.
Even if his price is a bit higher ; you still buy from him. That’s how Igbos built their own economy from inside.
They called it “Onye Aghala Nwanne Ya ” - "Don’t leave your brother behind."
This was more than business. It was survival. It was loyalty. It was strategy.
They built communities.
They trained one another through apprenticeship (Igba Boi).
They lifted each other from trenches to triumph.
They created chains of value - and chains of trust.
And no one represents this model today better than Obi Cubana
He started small - one nightclub in Abuja.
But he didn’t rise alone.
He surrounded himself with people he empowered , and they, in turn, empowered him.
Today, many of his “boys” are millionaires, and they’re all still connected. That’s what made his mum’s burial a historic moment
it wasn’t about showing off, it was about community wealth.
Now His 50th birthday was a blast.
From Business Men to superstars to sports players they all gathered to pay homage .
You might wondering what a popular pastor was doing at the event ?
He is Igbo right ?
He came to pay homage to his brother who built from scratch.
That’s the Igbo system.
Build. Empower. Don’t leave your brother.
That's why Anywhere you see an Igbo person there must be a community.
That's how the Igbos grow
That's how they were able to bounce back and become the most proporous ethnic group in Africa
As Obi Cubana celebrates his 50th birthday, I see more than a successful man.
I see a case study of Igbo resilience, strategy, and communal growth.
If you're building something today, I want you to ask yourself:
Are you lifting others as you rise?
Are you creating value or just chasing money?
Are you building a system, or are you walking alone?
Because wealth built alone is fragile. But wealth built in brotherhood is eternal.
Obi Cubana didn’t just make money.
He made men. He made systems. He made history.
And that, my friend, is the secret of Igbo entrepreneurship.
Start now to build men.
