I guess the above explains why Igbos care more about Tinubu, the SW and what Yorubas are doing in their land than their own affairs in ala Igbo.

I have always argued that most Igbos, because of their obsessive behavior toward the SW and her indigenes, are Yoruba wannabes and this article confirms my opinion precisely and why it is so.

Dude pls do us a favour and stfu. Everything about u is tinubu dis tinubu dat. The man does not even know ur sorry ass

meccuno:
so there are no other advanced ethnic group or race that Igbos who were born in the SW would want to be it's to become a Yoruba wannabe? You obviously have very few Igbo friends . Why in hell would I want to be Yoruba?

Oshigun:


For the very same reason my post bothered you enough to gain a response out of you.

meccuno:
You are Yoruba in a thread that spoke mainly about Igbos and you are talking about me being bothered by you a Yoruba man? to start with what are you even doing on an Igbo dominated thread?

That generation is where you find the greatest number of Ìgbò people speaking and writing Hausa and Yoruba languages so fluently but tell you they “understand” Ìgbò but cannot speak and write it fluently.

Lagos is not even a Yoruba state. I don't know why you Yorubas get heart attacks whenever it's mentioned! Such feeling of insecurities must be very frustrating! I mean the original indigenous owners of Lagos don't worry at all. The Eguns and Aworis are fine with their Lagos, but it's you from a dusty Oshogbo that keeps shouting Lagos this and Lagos that... You need to go sit your sorry ass down in a corner..

lol keep decieving yourselves
Egun,Awori are Yoruba
Or are they Igbo?
I need the link to the attached article

You know exactly what I am talking about which is that that Igbos are obsessively and abnormally involved in the affairs of the Yorubas because most young Igbos today suffer from an identity crisis that sees them identifying more with things and people outside ala Igbo.

You people should move to change this because the obsession of Igbos with everything Yoruba is really scary and disconcerting for Yorubas.

It is the reason most of us rise up to tackle Igbos here. If Igbos were not obtrusive in manner, towards everything Yoruba-related, then most Yorubas would not care about them.

Igbo socio-cultural confusion, cultural inferiority complex, mental weakness/disorder and patriotic divergence.—Chijioke Ngobili

Peter Okoye (Psquare)'s recent “evangelizing” tweet about uniting Nigerians and eschewing ethnic divisions is a good reflection of the confused and divergent mental-psychological states of many Ìgbò youths born from the late 1970s to early 2000s. I have never seen a generation of Ìgbò so fake, so confused, so distracted and so missionless like that generation, of which I equally belong to.
That generation is where you find the greatest number of young parents raising their Ìgbò children to be anything but Ìgbò yet they go about identifying as Ìgbò.

That generation is where you find young mums competing with each other over whose children speak better English as well as ensuring that their own mother tongue—Ìgbò language—is never spoken by the children to avoid 'spoiling' their English accent.
That is the generation where you find Ìgbò undergraduate students studying in universities based in Ìgbòland who go about foolishly conversing in Yoruba to show their fellow Ìgbò some urban-cultural superiority as being born and bred in Lagos — in Ìgbòland o!
That generation is where you find the greatest number of IPOB and ESN critics and haters who still want the Fulani herdsmen in their villages to get out from the bushes in Ìgbòland 'automatically'.

That generation is where you find the greatest number of Ìgbò people speaking and writing Hausa and Yoruba languages so fluently but tell you they “understand” Ìgbò but cannot speak and write it fluently.

That generation is where you find the greatest number of Ìgbò people whose entire names are anything but Ìgbò and still do not care about the future implications as long as the American-media has reconfigured their mind to care less.

That generation is where you find the greatest number of fake Ìgbò people very much eager to show love and affection publicly on social media screens but are often lilylivered to make real and true sacrifices when the loyalty to love is tested.

That generation is where you find young people making jokes with their one and only natural constituency—their village—appropriating it (and the kindred living in it) to misfortunes and undesirable things. “Na im village people dey worry am”, they say and laugh away, oblivious of the monumental damage they're doing to their minds, themselves and those of their children.

I really do not want to add anything to what many sensible Ìgbò people have already said in their fitful responses to Peter Okoye and his “unity” message. I only wanted to use him as a reflector of the larger stupidity dealing with his generation. It is a reflection of socio-cultural confusion, cultural inferiority complex, mental weakness/disorder and patriotic divergence. If not, he and those Ìgbò rationalizing for him would have known what their ancestors meant when they made these proverbs:
“onye ụnọ ya na-agba ọkụ ada achụ oké”
“a zọta anị, a zọba ute”
“A na-esi n'ụnọ malụ mma wee pụọ n'ama”
—Chijioke Ngobili

It's not only the igbo, it affect every southern Nigeria, we want to speak queens English at the detriment of our mother tongue , if u are an experienced teacher and reside around bada, ayobo, Lagos check my signature requirements WAEC, OND and NCE

This is so true

Biafrannuke:
yes. except you are a lunatic too.

Hellraiser77:
Olaniyi the ewedu green teeth boy, why do you enjoy denying yoruba so much?

Rugaria:

We know those who fought, killed and died to live with Igbos in the same country... We also know those who are still fighting and agitating to separate from you... You make yourself a legitimate target, when you prime your politics to be more concentrated on what you deny others and not what you get... When you insist that the only way you can stand tall is when you stand on others.. When you make a murderer the president over me, I'm at liberty to react the best way I feel it's okay...
So if you're really worried about Igbo "obsession" with Lagos, maybe you should try stopping your support for obnoxiously evil government that treat certain people with levity in their own land.. it's that simple you know...?

BlackPantherxXx:


Any yamlegged chestbeater who can speak Yoruba or has been to Lagos is automatically an Eze.

They consider them as gods
