Igbos and Yoruba love marrying themselves? This is news since it's a rare thing to see a Yoruba woman in Igbo land

Rarely have I seen an Igbo man marrying an Yoruba woman, and the Yorubas who marry Igbo women are those they met in Yoruba land, and have been 'accultured' to Yorubas

In reality, most Igbos don't know much about Yoruba culture, and most Yorubas don't know much about Igbo culture

However, it is important to note that Yorubas and Igbos have been age-long political enemies, and that's why both tribes have no business being in one country together

It's a subtle attempt to court Ndigbo into forming a united southern front for their selfish benefit in 2027. Meanwhile, they're still destroying Igbo properties. This is the height of disrespect from them.

Igbos have been in Yoruba land and most of them even raised their kids there.
Igbo have some idea and knowledge of the Yoruba culture but I don't think Yorubas have much idea of Igbo culture apart from the one they see Igbos do in Yoruba land.

I live in Anambra and thats why i might marry an Igbo lady but aside that, I'm smart enough to know that 'woman' is just a gender and outside this, each of them have diff experiences,background and knowledge to act and live as a unique person and that defines them far more than their race or tribal identity

Igbo men hardly marry Yoruba women.

It is Yoruba men that are drooling over Igbo women.

The obvious reason being that Igbo women are generally way more beautiful than Yoruba women.

Yoruba men are liberal enough to marry more from other tribes than other men
Yoruba have had two presidents and none married an Igbo none had a Yoruba firstlady too

It points to the fact that they marry from just any tribe but marrying igbo women tend to be more common cause of the population of the Igbos

Even among SW Govs, we have as many igbo firslady as we have for other tribes in the SW, so again, its not about Igbo women, its about Yoruba men liberal lifestlye and also about Igbo women having more population than the rest

So a man will wake and think in his head I want to court Ibos to form a united southern front and go and marry a woman for that reason?

That's true, Yoruba's migrate sparsely to Igbo land. About the marriage, it's yoruba men who always marry igbo women. Yoruba believes Igbo people are not cultured & lacks respect. There shouldn't be ethnicity discrimination in marriage abeg

He is saying, Yoruba men marry igbo women but igbo men rarery (like 1 in 1,000,000)marry yoruba women.

Igbo men marry Germans, Chinese, Japanese, Indians, English, French, even Arab, ibibio, efik, fulani, igala, edo, idoma, igede, ijaw, isoko,urhobo but rarely marry yoruba women

So are you stylishly alluding to the fact that population-wise, there are more Igbos than either the Yorubas or Hausas?

If Yorubas are too liberal, why are they threatened by Igbo economic success, leading them to adopt policies that lead to the demolition of Igbo properties?

Igbo women are generally the most beautiful women in Nigeria. It is just so obvious.

I currently live in Lagos, and just yesterday evening I was walking down an ordinary Ikeja street, and it doesn't take a prophet to point out which of the ladies is Yoruba and which one is Igbo. I saw an average Igbo girl getting out of an ordinary keke. She had hazel eyes and a very typically Igbo lovely complexion, and nearby was a group of typical Yoruba guys starring at her with gaping mouths. She was oblivious to what was happening, as I believe she was returning from school. These were typical RONU guys, who are definitely Agbado supporters. Tomorrow, when they start chasing an Igbo woman to marry, you will tell me they are liberal. Liberal my foot. They just want an Igbo lady to contribute her genetic being to their lineages, as they wish to improve the loveliness of their race.

But with the coming of Tinubu and the huge anti-Igbo stance of his government, it is just a matter of time before Igbo fathers will stop agreeing to their daughters being paired with Igbo-haters. These Igbo fathers will not appreciate their nwadianas being labelled omoale (bastards) by their supposed Yoruba people. Igbos are observing and seeing how the so-called liberal Yorubas are treating GRV

I didnt read beyond your first line. How can there be more igbo wives in Yoruba homes than Yoruba wives

My comparison is between Igbo women and women from other tribes, not Hausa and Yoruba inclusive


Yorubas marry Yorubas more. the population of Yoruba men marrying Igbo women is far less than the population of Yoruba men married to their fellow Yoruba women. Now, we dont really marry the Hausas for obvious reasons

Again, using factual cases like the issue of Presidents and Govs from SW, Its obvious that its really about Yoruba men marrying more from other tribes than any other men

Igbo women are more than calabar,Benin and co, so you dont expect to see more inter-tribal marriage between Yoruba and Efik than you would see between Yoruba and Igbo


I'm surprised u couldnt deduce this from my comment

Chief Emeka Anyaoku, former Commonwealth Secretary-General, he married his wife Bunmi Anyaoku in 1962.

Late Prof. Ike (author of bottled leopard) and former traditional ruler of Ndikelionwu in Anambra state was married to Adebimpe Ike in 1959 till his death in 2020, she was the Lolo when he was the Igwe.

My cousin is getting married to a Yoruba guy this December, they met in Port Harcourt.

Oga, nobody is targeting the Igbos in Lagos.
People just break laws and when the consequences come, they come on social media and start crying of victimisation and tribal witch-haunting. When Yoruba properties are demolished in Lagos, they cry and move on. But when Igbo properties are demolished in Lagos, they come online and tag it witch-haunting because they know they will attract public sympathy.

If you see how people are buying up canals in Lagos, sand-filling it and building their houses on them, you will understand why the Lagos State government is taking that action. Those people contribute to why people's homes are flooded whenever it rains heavily in Lagos. Afterwards, you guys will be online bad-mouthing Lagos State and calling it all sorts of bad names.

Lolz at the last sentence. Stop fooling yourself. The only Yoruba men that marry igbo women are men that are gay to some extent. No man in his right senses will marry a hairy chested, yam-legged "woman" that has enough testosterone to make a stallion look like a damned wimp.
