SirShymex:


I know her from the culture section. And it has reached a stage where you always have to question why these folks always create tons of hateful threads about just the Ijebus. Apart from the Yoruba and Igbo threads - no other group has more stereotypical threads than the Ijebus ( you can check NL's database). And this chic is ever present on those threads.

Ijebus have different subgroups: proper Ijebu in Ogun, Remo division, waterside Ijebu in Lagos, Ibadan Ijebus, and Iseyin. They should at least tell us which of the Ijebus have these stereotypical tosh because no one in my own family is fetish, stingy, and wicked. It's just boring now.

dis is a big phucking lie,why dont u show us proof instead of accusing me wrongly.i ave seen post of u insulting peeps from ibadan,so dont come here acting like a saint.u ave no proof,u are more deluded than i thought,eranko.u definately ave my moniker mistaken with someone else

SirShymex:


Yes, and that's why I kind of feel the pains of those in the new world whose ancestry was from that dark history. Obviously, slavery back them was a norm - and serfdom was a universal thing. However, I believe those slave traders never knew what they were getting themselves into, and the horrible things the slaves were subjected to. And that has created a generational thing that both blacks in Africa and the new world are yet to recover from.

quite sure they knew.


there were african sailors on transatlantic ships and besides, returnee slaves were also many.

the tribes that traded directly with europeans knew exactly what was going on, do you have any proof they didnt?

wetin concern sentiment with this matter?

your argument should be some of the traders may have felt the captured folks might be getting a better life overseas (in some way), not that they were unaware how it was.

Anyway, I feel their pains and I understand the struggles of those in the new world. Hence I'll never look down on them. The experience in black diaspora today is also relative for both those in the new world and, 2nd/3rd generation Africans. The legacy of the slave trade, and why it's always better to look for ways to bridge the gap.

some gaps will never be bridged dear.

So, you don't know what speaking Nigerian is, stark illiterate?

Anyway, go learn how to read, spell, and improve your comprehension skills.

I don't even like Ijebu women, but they're not as doltish as you're.

f.o.o.l .dere is nothing like nigerian and dat statement didnt make any sense.what i wrote down was yoruba.u are obviously d illiterate here,who gives a phuck about d opinion of a weak boy like u.u shuld take ur own advice whimp

Rotflmao! True Dat!!!!

Those peeps like the good things of life and I have never been able to reconcile it with the stingy stereotype.My ijebu side of the family is far 'posher' than my lagos side.

Get ya proofs yourself - I can't waste my time on an inconsequential and insolent little chic.

Yes, I clown Ibadan folks from time to time because my mum was born and raised there, and I'm always around folks from Ibadan. And the Ibadan folks on here know I'm just having fun with it, because it's all love. But you'll never see me create stereotypical threads about Ibadan folks. And I do talk about the Egbas as well because my maternal nan is an Egba women, and I've got some Egba blood in me. As for the rest, I don't care about them, apart from the politics. And that's basically due to the fact that I love politics.

Heck, when I used to be a regular in the culture section, I created a few threads about the greatness of Ibadan warriors and the great history of the place. Ditto the Egbas and their achievements.

Lmao @ weak boy. I see you also don't understand the meaning of having a chip on your shoulder about certain things. You're obviously a stark illiterate.

Nigerian-speak or speaking Nigerian = pigeon/broken English.

Aren't you 22 or 23? I'm not an "old nyggah." Just not in ya age-bracket or ya level, stark illiterate.

You were on the Ijebu-hating thread created by Isale_gan2, and all the other ones in the culture section. Go dig them out yourself, and that's if you can use NL search for old threads. Something I doubt you'll be able to do!

Eat a dyck, and stay away from Ijebu men. You don't deserve great merchants, and guys who can make a dollar out of 50 cents.

But you denied being on Ijebu threads. Hell yeah, you only replied my insults to Yoruba women, and that was also why oduaboy, oderemo, and a few other Ijebu posters got involved, no?

That is what i know.
Just mentioning this because you may start believing your own lies, not sure what you are up to this time or who your target audience is.

i genuinely thought you were from ijebu cos you are kinda knowledgable about the different clans of the yoruba people.

so where exactly are you from?

No please we dont need any comment hidden, this is just an enjoyable friendly banter and we need them for references, it isnt even as bad as what we have in other threads which are intact

My sister is even dating an Ijebu guy. He cooked for me, so he has my blessing.

Lol, delusional much? You know I eat folks for breakfast, lunch, and dinner when I'm pissed.

Anyway, bring ya flat batty, let me spray some Ijebu money on it. You know the Ijebus were the first to spend money in naija, right? Cow shells or whatever it is called, and money ain't a thang.

Bring that batty here, let me smack it lol.

And you lot need to stop this obsession with Ijebus. It is nauseating to come here and read this nonsense all the time. Especially when you were raised to be a proud Ijebu and Yoruba all your life. And you are oblivious to everything. Only to find out that some duffers stuck in the medieval age always have some jejune tales induced by 19th century jealousy, to post.

Just stop it!

coogar:


there's no tribe in nigeria that is jazz-free. i am not perturbed at all concerning jazz. stinginess & being prudent go hand in hand. it's mostly an individualistic trait.

what is more disturbing is the role they were alleged to have played during the trans-atlantic slave trade. the ijebus had the first contact with the europeans among the yoruba people so they benefitted immensely & even frustrated the other yoruba clans from making profit.

legend has it that the ijebus introduced their own tax before allowing the ijeshas, ondos, ekitis & ibadan slave merchants to ferry their slaves through ijebu land & this ate into their profit. personally, i think this is their major beef with the ijebus.

I don't doubt that part of history but that was a long time ago and not a time where most tribes don't come out smelling of roses.As you said all the other sub groups had slave merchants as well and I guess the capitalists in them made them take advantage of that fact.Not nice but it's in the past and most people who have issues with them seem to be from the jazz and being stingy issues.Also I forgot to add earlier there is this notion (hence why some people say I can even stand the men ) that ijebu women are domineering as wives, mothers, mother in laws etc.Not saying that might not be true of SOME ijebu women but it's a stereotype that is further fuelled by some of these women being very financially independent.

Stereotypes are just what they are pre conceived notions about a set of people and I think it's just best to deal with people on an individual level.I know owerri ladies, (cococandy is mbaise owerri?)Benin or edo women etc too have to deal with those stereotypes as well so like I said deal with the Individual based on their own behaviour.

No. Mbaise is just close to owerri. But quite different

of course, it's in the past but the generation that witnessed it & their immediate offspring aren't letting go. in another 20-50 years, all of them should be dead & hopefully, the stereotyping would end.

it saddens me how people still hold on to dark history. and you know what they say about forbidden things......ijebu babes all of a sudden became the most attractive of the lot & it has to do with the fact that it's almost forbidden in nearly all the other yoruba states.

they still have the osu thingy in the east. i cannot imagine taking a sweet babe to ituku ozalla only for my family to say she's an osu....i would start a riot. osu-gini? do osus have 3 brëasts or what is forbidden about them? me thinks we should get rid of all the folks older than 70 in our midst in nigeria, they are the ones holding the progress of that country & it's unity.
