Godblessbiafraa: I can't just help but loose the hypocrisy we practiced in real life when we can not tell ourselves the truth... I prefer people to hate me for telling the truth than hailing me for telling lies and continue the real life hypocrisy on social media 1 Like |

ChimaAdeoye:Statists is more accurate than Wiki. And by the way, I ain't Fulani, I'm of Ibo origin and I like to factually confirm information. Anyway, just like you many Nigerians like to think they're wise but dumb in reality. Travel outside and see how normal people behave. 1 Like |

Faithful007: You did good research. I prefer these factual posts rather than tribal gossip we have here - Well done. However you seem to have lumped the South-south names along with the Igbo names. There are a lot of Middle belt names that "seem' like Igbo names. I can only identify 38 core Igbo names here |
Re: Igbo Ethnicity In The Nigerian Army- My Shocking Observation by Faithful007: 7:21pm On Apr 26, 2021 |
Shokoloko:they're definitely more than 55 at least. I've lived in Nigeria a lot and know Igbo to a good extent. I didn't only identify the Igbo names I know the meanings but also the ones I've come across and the ones I can identify an Igbo ancestral phrase. Normally speaking, you many not think Obilor and Onoja are Igbo. 1 Like |

Faithful007: Please avail us with more data if possible |
Re: Igbo Ethnicity In The Nigerian Army- My Shocking Observation by Shokoloko(f): 8:04pm On Apr 26, 2021 |
Faithful007: Lol, Obilor is delta Igbo or Anambra Igbo. Onoja is Igala ( usually given to people who had titled ancestors) However even with 38 we cannot really claim marginalization |

Faithful007: There has never been an actual or factual figure regarding Census in the Nigger Area. There may even be more Ibibio people than Hausa but no one can for sure say...only quack numbers for political purposes 1 Like |

Faithful007:No be human being like me and you write that yeye statistics? I know you are only looking for people will visit your blog, thank your stars, I've done that.. But know it that, that statistics is from Kaduna media house. Hausa are the third largest population we have in the country, behind Igbo and Yoruba.. In the entire NE, it's only in Bauchi you will get real Hasua speakers.. They are mainly found in the NW where there are also many minority tribes. But in SE and SW you will get 97% Igbos and Yorubas respectively.. In Igbo case you can count millions of migrants in other parts of the country. |
