Nsukka, the home of the University of Nigeria, UNN, is now suddenly remote because you want to explain the presence of a few hundred Yorubas there.




am I surprised? No be you?

Aloy~Emeka:

Nsukka is like Ogbomosho you bigot. Will you call Ogbomosho an urbanized town?. Is Ife which is a University town an urbanized town?. Jeez.

yommyuk:

All Igbo states have Yoruba residents and their number amounts to hundreds of thousands

1st time I have heard this.
Yorubas in Iboland!!!
Just like water in hell

One thing I have noticed on NL is that whenever there is a new post that puts the IBOs in the spot light
They all come out gun blazing like dogs on the lose
What a bunch!

yommyuk:



Do you mind me asking. What do majority of the yorubas in the east do for a living? just curious.

If so, what did the Yoruba in Enugu say about Enugu people/govt, minus their present complaint
Very diplomatic.

according to aloy emeka who seems to feel he's atlas bearing the world's burden on his gbeborun shoulders, they are mainly cab drivers and tailors.

^^ you're too hot headed and the same applies to your colleagues nchara and aloy emeka.

udezue is just drunk most of the time.

yommyuk:

Which do you think  is more tribalistic: IGBOS or Yorubas?

Ibos for sure!

Let me give u an example.
An Ibo guy wanted to sell a friend of mine(yoruba) some videos machines. Immediately he saw an Ibo guy in the house that my friend was living, he started speaking the Ibo lingo. He even went to the length of dealing with the ibo guy (same deal) behind my friends back.
hmm (It happened in HOLLAND)

Anyway, that is common knowledge now. Ibo kwenu isn't it?

ezeagu:

So I'm hot headed because I listed a common Yoruba occupation in the east?

ezeagu:

It is your bunch that is better. He goat, take.

Shege!

@Nchara,

I have to admit this is the first time I have heard of Yorubas residing in IBOland?
In my family the only person to set foot on IBOLAND is a cousin in the airforce in calabar.

Do you mind me asking. What do majority of the yorubas in the east do for a living? just curious.

tpia.:

no, I was referring to this:




and neither did I say there was anything wrong with any of the occupations.

I don't take to kindly to patronising, especially from somebody who doesn't know anything about the topic.

tpia.:


who is patronizing you?

I said you are hot headed.

Aloy~Emeka:

And Yorubas do not speak their Yoruba lingo in the presence of non Yorubas?. Is it not Yorubas that do that more?

You know why I asked you that question?:

Many Yorubas here claim igbos are not united and do not like their culture contrary to Yorubas who are uniformly united and love their culture to a fault. Assuming that  statement is true, who do you think should have more tribalistic tendencies? the igbo man that hates his people and culture or the Yoruba man that loves his people and culture so much? . Take off your tribalistic lens and be analytical for once.

yommyuk:

Its a lie!

I swear on my daughter's life

What I found out about the igbos is those who were born in lagos or maybe lived in lagos are more open.
But those who grew up in owerri, Aba or all those nnewi places, Man o man tribalism is written all over them.
Their tribalism is even worst than Oyinbos racism

Nchara:

The CEO of the taxi company came with Yoruba drivers, as usual with their tribalism. But no problem he is free to operate and we shall enter his taxis. No discrimination.

Nchara:

They are traders, tailors, workers in the civil service and in banks, in oil companies and other multinationals (for e.g., PZ in ABA, Nigerian Breweries Enugu), university lecturers, students, taxi drivers, police, soldier, navy, pastors. I know of many who are landlords with Igbos as their tenants. The biggest Single taxi business in Abia state is owned by a Yoruba

[size=15pt]so if they are all these in igboland, where does being lazy and beggars come from? just curious[/size]

sjeezy8:

So what so special about the west that makes igbos want to move there?
I really want to no know cause i hear igbos saying the west is dirty yorubas are lazy and co,  but why keep moving there and leaving your OWN land? Lagos is not the capital(anymore) neither is Ibadan or Abeokuta etc,

Most yorubas leave the west its to go to Abuja or Abroad.

Yorubas are more tribalistic in ways of not giving a shit about other cultures- but they dont bad mouth igbos as much as igbos do yorubas.
Igbos are tribalist in a hater way no doubt, they love resulting to abusive name calling n BS, to make themselves feel better lol. The tribe that has the biggest haterz is the igbo NO doubt esp the males.

Nchara:

They are beggars because inspite of all that they do not want to spend money and buy land for their project or pay for their Hajj trips. They want free money from Enugu govt. That is lazy and beggarly. Not so?
