The 9 Igbo Players Were Chosen Based On Merit Not Tribalism! by Nobody: 3:25pm On Sep 03, 2017
There has been a lot of rubbish posted online by anti-Igboists about the fact that 9 of the players that trashed Cameroon were Igbos! They ask mischievously 'why no one is complaining about marginalization'!

Igbo man out there, if they ask you such silly question, just tell them this :

No one is talking marginalization because the players were chosen based on merit not based on tribalism. If it is 9 Tiv players tomorrow, as long as they are chosen through merit not tribalism or hate, Igbos will not complain!

The Igbos are only asking for a level playing ground not preferential treatment.

Who started the talk about the ethnic coloration of the players? Was it not the anti-Igboists trying to make it look as if the Igbos were being given preferential treatment when their players were chosen strictly based on merit?

As for your comment on the sacking of the coach, if Nigeria doesn't like winning on the international scene and decides to axe the coach for choosing Igbos based on merit, too bad and ...what a Shame that would be!

They coerced the coach to adopt quota system in the match against South Africa and guess what? grin they got humiliated in home soil

Yesterday the coach refused to abide by quota system and the result is glaringly positive.


Little wonder the Igbos shouts Biafra every now and then cos such is the way forward not nepotism and demonic favoritism that Nigeria is known for.

Fierce competition indeed! Always screaming marginalization. Ask the jews even after enduring 2 ww, you would not find them whining, they use the system to their benefits and come out triump. That is why they are respected not like you guys that you can't even take your own freedom. You guys are butt of jokes in most serious societies.

My friend, your mind rankles with jealousy and envy towards the Igbo, but remember that Igbos are in almost every ethnic group in the South.

For instance, a lot of present-day Yorubas are descended from Igbos. Go read up on the Igbos authochtons of Ife and Moremi Ajesoro. So Igbos are a lot closer to you than you think! Let us have unity and friendly competition in Nigeria, not bitter divisions!

But so many lgbos are the ones promoting division of Nigeria on Social Media. You said lgbos are somehow related to Yoruba's, many lgbos on this site would hate you for this.

Lol... How do you guys reason sef..... only you knew they coerced the coach.. only you have the information that the coach refused then.

my question is How do you know? you believe the list was based on merit because most the players were of igbo origin but if It's mostly hausas It's nepotism and favoritism....

This is the very squad that South Africa walloped 2:0 at Uyo. Igbos are the majority in it. Do we now use that to counter your argument because they failed. You lots are always quick to attack something when it's not favouring you but will keep mute as long as you are benefitting from it. Lemme unveil the weakness of your logic, What will be your defence if other tribes complain of marginalization because there were five Igbo players on the field on Friday??

The truth of the matter is what Kemi Olunloyo said sometimes ago that Igbos are too emotional..... That's why I still maintained that bloated emotions is the reason for their current agitation and that alone will cause the whole charade to fall like a pack of cards.

I know my wife's mother is even Igbo, so if you flip the whole thing, Yoruba blood also is in most Igbo line, we inter marry.

No competition is fair, so dude compete with the rules and without, and win, that is a champ thru and thru, don't wait for any preferential treatment.
