    This is Abiriba in Abia State. It is called Small London because of the way the indigenes have transformed it with structures. Abiriba people don't joke with their town. They invest in it and keep it beautiful.

      100% village! Their houses are owned by the indigene of that village. Igbo people don't build houses in other people's villages because no indigenes rent an apartment to live in their villages, if they don't have to get free from family members. I was laughing myself off when he said come buy land there, right away I knew he knew nothing about Igbo culture and people.

      That's a good and lofty aspiration...but don't forget that as you grow older, you may have many health challenges and will need excellent health care if you are not to succumb to your ailments and frailties. Ask yourself, how many standardized health care facilities do we have in the rural areas in Nigeria? The nearby cities are not faring any better...besides, most health care personnel, myself included, and even those of Abriba origin, have all emigrated abroad these days...that is my biggest concern personally...You may still need to be flown out for care every time you fall ill....let it not come to you as a surprise that most of the owners of those houses you see, have no real intentions of living there permanently for extended periods of time. Those structures serves as their holiday home, and family home for their less privileged family members and older parents...at least, that is my personal story😊

      @crackerjack4989 one of things we Africans or blacks have forgotten to do is by living by nature and herbal treatment. Western medicines are good but the side effects are very deadly. Food is health so what goes in matters. My gran was 120yrs before she died, my dad was about 90yrs too. There is a lot of strange sicknesses here in the western world and its not good for blacks esp we lack son which help us with our bones.

    The broader next step would be to build a thriving community around the wealth, and then create self-sustaining income generation. That's how communities grow. Or plan to make it a communal oasis (think resort), that itself brings in some wealth. Build from inside, out. Good to see as I have connections to Aro, so not far from this community. But let's get systematic rather than strictly individualistic.

Most of them actually stay abroad where, I might add, they also have humongous edifices like these too...the village only come to life during the Christmas period when most people return for the Christmas holidays as they are mostly Christians. Then you can see a lot of people and luxury cars in the village. This is not peculiar to this community. It is the same in most communities in the Eastern parts of the Country. Another time when the village comes to life is when they celebrate their traditional ceremonies and events...cheers!
