As fair as this write up is I must admit it is flawed. If any1 tease Igbos about the love of money. They tease the Ijebus more for greediness n the Abokis for backwardness. An Igbo comedian was busy cracking jokes on n about Yoruba, I laughed this off growing up but I did take offend to it at that time because it was a subtly way Igbos use in insulting Yoruba.

This is exactly what one Nwaipkwe idiot does daily on NL until I started quoting him to make foolish n hopeless joke about his tribe n their actors n actresses. You came to the West n you can clearly see how fairly the Yorubas deal with different ethnicities.

It is crazy some Igbos want us to hate Hausa simply because they are not as educated. No Igbo I repeat can form superstar to any Yoruba. Coming top in class na shii to me, I am doing a lot beta than those that came top of my class in life today.

Igbos should know they are not superior to the most nauseating Aboki, you were just lucky civilization came to you before them. How fast n much you accepted n adopted it is your father’s problem. Nobody in Nigeria will give up their right for you to thumb your chest over. The earlier you learn this the better for all of us.

resurgent4oodua:



You have exposed yourself as being just another igbo man. Leave other Nigerians to suffer under Buhari since Igbos are the best thing since the milky way and they are the richest.

Let us continue Nigeria as presently constituted and continue our strive to prosper. God will bless every every tribe in Nigeria in Jesus Name. Amen.

The only reason they are every is their land is tiny and barren.Stop kidding yourself.
The entire land is smaller than Kwara state and most is is is red,eroded and barren.
How many NON Ibos are in Onitsha or Ariaria markets

Develpeast:


The first hate I experienced was in the west when you are surrounded by the yorubas. They look at you with such disdain that start asking yourself why did you come here the first place.

Develpeast:


When you say a land is barren, do you mean the land is barren from building houses and industries because I do not understand. I do not think any state in Nigeria as much real estate and industry as lagos but it happens that lagos is the smallest state in the country. Igbos build both home and away from their states. What you see in lagos, there is high possibility that it has been replicated in the east or better. So the joke is on you that an igbo man who owns a house in lagos will go to the village to sleep in the street.

If igbos want to play the ethnic card, we will behave like the hausa who sleep in low cost houses in lagos and other regions and build fantastic homes in kano where he keeps his wives and children. At least igbos contribute in paying taxes in your cities and contribute in other areas like education and industry too. Apart from a few rich hausas, how many people contribute there?

Don't play the moral card on me, Oga. You are the one that started it. You've been jumping from one thread to the other on nairaland, shouting

"Igbos will never get to Aso rock!"

What do you mean by the statement
"Cut down this hateful tribe"

Hateful tribe when I'm the one that brought the white flag. I am ready to forgive you Nigerians even without you apologizing just for peace to reign but see the kind of statements you brought to a peace meeting.

Show me one thread on nairaland where someone acknowledging he/she is yoruba and is sympathetic to the marginalization Igbos have faced over the years.

I can tell you with all assurance that words like "OSU", "Biafrau d" came to Nairaland first before words like "Afonja" and "Abobaku".

It's time to let go of the hate in your heart for the Igbos. You are a Christian or you claim to be. Our doctrine is that we can and should forgive anything. I am begging you, if our crime is that we are boastful, we are sorry.. but let's stop hating each other. We are humans first before racials, and tribals.. The world is big enough for all of us.

Oga you cant retain your sound mind here

When i say travel, i mean within the country besides you can't compare even though abroad.

There is a saying that any place you don't find an Igbo person run because there is no progress there

I'm sure that

1. You're jobless
2. Hungry
3. An illiterate

After the bombardment, only if the govt carried out the 3Rs.

During the war, we produced our own ammunition, refined our crude oil, generated electricity, built airport and landed planes etc all this happened when the war was hot but today in nigeria we export crude oil only to import petrol, minister for power once quoted sango the god of thunder saying if sango with all his gara gara using thunder could not generate electricity, which magic are we expecting an ordinary man to do, nigeria still look to the western world to get ammunition imagine things that Biafrans could do under pressure.

Indeed in Biafra Africa died

Selling ewedu in ghana lol,

Do you know that some muslim countries where yoruba and hausa muslims dares not to go, Igbo's are doing successful businesses there.

obonujoker:
Igbos or Northerners aren't tribalist... they can live and move everywhere... the main tribalists in Nigeria are the yorubas...

Check them out..;
They never attend a church which they presume Igbo , Calabar or Hausa heads...

They rarely travel to do business or have fun at other parts of the country....

Buh thank God for Christianity which is changing the younger ones growing up, who have decided to eschew religious lies and tribalism, and embrace truth....

Igbos should just go and sit down. They are the ones that keep shouting being hated while other Nigerians are struggling to survive.

Let everybody just mind his business in this Nigeria. There was no need for this thread in the first place. The OP meant well but his brothers messed it up as usual. Everybody will be alright Las las.

NaijirianKing:
Biafra was an internationally recognized country, but if you lose a war, you lost a war and if the nation that takes over says your country doesn't exist, then it is wiped off the map. That's the reality. So if you take over another nation, there are certain functions of government you have to also take over, currency circulation is just one of the many. Other duties also include, light, roads, sewage, etc.

Westbestside:
Lol, now i get your point and that is what we always want to be hearing from you guys. Always clarify. Now let me ask you, why would they travel to other part of the country when their own region is the best in the nation where every other regions always want to come. Average yorubas think of traveling to a place better than his home of which none is in the country. So they rather travel abroad. Telling yorubas to travel to east or north is like telling europeans to travel to africa. Do not mind us, we always think of better place than our own place. Hope you grab it.

Westbestside:
Lol, i asked simple question, this mumu resulted into insult, now who is hungry, jobless n iliterate among us. You are daft and you keep showing it. Nigeria was running regional govt before your ironsi changed the system to unitary in the aim to favour igbos of which una enjoyed it thinking you can cage other tribes until the table turns and una started wailing. Why did you not thrive then, why waiting for another 30years. Why are your leaders not showing it now. You are daft.

Almaiga:


And you said Igbo's are not tribalist?

Patrioticooduan:

You are the one that hasn't traveled outside your region. The only place you won't find Yoruba's is in iboland. Yoruba people travel to North and South South.

Patrioticooduan:

There are over 500 thousand Yorubas in Ghana alone. In fact, they are the only recognized non indigenous people in the country.

KANUISALIVE:


Poor orientation and lack of exposure make you guys think that there is no life elsewhere apart from Lagos which was once a capital territory.

All yorubas are from Lagos, lol those from ogbomosho are not yorubas, apart from Lagos yorubas have no other place.

I still don't blame my fellow Igbo who believed in One nigeria

Westbestside:
Lagos, lagos, lagps. We talking of region, this one is talking of lagos. Na by force to go to east. We are not interested. No region like west. So we cannot stoop so low to go to east. Thank you and stop wailing. We know where we can travel too. I have families in europe, america n asia. But not east. I can bet it that you have relative in the west.

Westbestside:
Opportunity was given during regional system of government. Why did igbo not thrive then, why waiting for another 30years. Abi na by mouth una dey take thrive?

the richest man in nigeria in the 60s was luis ojukwu. Igbos dominated the govt in the 60s even in north and west. Igbos had so many '1sts' in the 60s..plus the eastern region was acknowledged in 1965 as the fastest growing economy in africa
