Because of Igbo culture of individualism.
Igbos hardly act as a group when it comes to social wellbeing and business dealing.
Take two Igbo traders in the same market, one has 25L of fuel to power his generator in the market while the other has non, both can power their generator if the trader with the 25L shares his fuel with the trader that has non.
But the average Igbo business man will not share only out of necessity.
The average Hausa man doesn't mind sharing with 5 other traders.
The average Yoruba trade is indifferent/undecided.
So you see, over the years this doctrine of individuality has always pushed Igbo forward.
Not just in Nigeria, go to Benin, Togo even as far as Ghana they dominate sectors in those countries.

The Apprenticeship system has done wonders for Ndigbo but I think it’s time to modernize and expand it into non traditional areas.
It should be modernized by making it a legal contractual agreement between owner and apprentice. An escrow account for the apprentice should be started once commitment has been made. The owner will contribute to the account according to agreed stipulations.
It’s should be expanded into vocational areas and not just trade. People can learn different trade skills and get a government recognized apprenticeship certificate after their apprenticeship training.
