can't believe you concurred with that beer parlor gist in the latter part of your comment.....suegbe gidi ni eh oo

In 2011, Aminu Tambuwal emerged as Speaker of the House of Representatives at the expense of Mulikat Akande-Adeola, the Peoples Democratic Party preferred candidate for the position.

While Tambuwal had the support of ACN members, who were bent on working against the PDP's zoning formula, which ceded the post to the South West geo-political zone, Akande-Adeola (from the South-West) was said to be enjoying the backing of the party's leadership though the zone's caucus of the PDP had earlier backed Muraina Ajibola for the position.

Bollocks!

Our politicians have successfully damaged Nigerian youths psyche.

All they care about is ethnic superiority, political affiliation and correctness, and the illusion of being special.

You all are living an illusion. The world is leaving Africans/Nigerians behind at a fast pace and no amount of false sense of importance will change the fact that u are existing in the part of the world that is backwards.

There is nothing special about been Igbo, Yoruba or Hausa. You didn't choose these tribes based on any special decision making skills, you just found yourself in it.

These foolishness that has become a daily occurrence on nairaland has to stop.

How I miss the days of Harakiri, sisikill, Debosky, Mrbrownjay, ajanlekoko, kastumoto, and a host of old forumites that contributed maturely.

Nairaland has been turned into a hatred propagation platform.

God bless you, help us drum it into the block ears of all these third world dwelling foools. One even said the igbo are competing only with the white men, how and in which aspect. I wonder how these losers believe there own lies.

Who is your competitor? Do you think Igbos are your mate? This is the insult Igbos receive for being in one Nigeria. Many Yorubas for some stu$pid reason see Igbos as competitors. This explains why they envy and hate at any success of Igbos. The Irony of it is Igbos don't consider Yorubas by any stretch as a competitor at all. Igbos compete only amongst themselves or v worst case with whites.

being one's competitor doesnt mean one is an enemy to the other party. Competition and healthy rivalry brings growth for people with clear minds. Am shocked to read this from you. The op wrote a healthy piece. You appear incapable of understanding his lines or apprehending the motif of his post.You came up angry and invective. Take a long breath-in and let it go in a sigh. Take k.

My two girfreind are ibos and am doing them well,the truth must be told ibo harbor hate for the yorubas,they never forgot the civil war,imagine my friend ibo guy saying he dosnt mind if all the yorubas perish I dish him immediately

PRACTICALS ON ENGLISH WRITING!

Dear Detosho,
You see how your good piece is being rubbished? Even though I am Igbo and don't believe everything you said up there, it is only rational for me to argue without defamatory words. But some people have started throwing it at you.
Nairaland political, sectional sections are where any reasonable person should avoid commenting on (SINCERELY SPEAKING), cos some people will still attack you wrongly and refuse to see or reason out your points even when you are making sense. Seriously, phone and data is now cheap and believe me blood hot teenagers, juveniles, and immature adults are here.
Some will come at me but I won't reply them as I'll just read their comments and pass on.

Best analysis!

Yorubas are highly skilled in betraying and most are generally lazy, I live amongst them so I know what I'm saying. Never tell a secret to a yoruba man or woman, igbos are skilled but very dubious that's a fact and hausas are just too violent for my liking.
I'm not tribalistic but just saying facts how it is.

Thank you for your hate, if you can give a reason for it anyway. Nonetheless, feel free to come do business in Lagos, Ibadan or other yellowbar cities, you are highly welcomed.

I know you're trying to make your inferior self feel good but its okay.

First of all Yoruba shouldn't even be in the same sentence with igbo if you know about history. it's even a bigger INSULT! that we're being compared with you. you know deep inside you its an insult to the Yoruba nation

The same people whose language we wrote its first primer?

The same people who were unknown prior to colonialism?

The same people we educated by giving free education?

The same people who can't breathe without coming to our land?

The same people whose land we don't go to?

People who were still walking unclad years after we were already clothed?


Are these the people you're putting in the same sentence with Yoruba people?

Anyways i blame it on the OP who probably has no knowledge of yoruba people and its history

Honestly the fact that we live together in the same country is the source of all these garbage. we've descended so low to to the extent that we're now exchanging jibes with "tribes" with no relevant history .Obviously the union has benefited you all more because they say "familiarity breeds contempt". originally this shouldn't even be a discussion if the red idiots never merged us together. For heaven's sake we're talking about a yoruba nation with a deep history, language, culture, arts.civilization,religion, literature,medicine. a nation that has fought wars in comparison with some wandering tribe . A nation that has produced some of the greatest artefacts in the history of the black race. you know deep inside you, you feel really good when you're been compared to the Yoruba nation to you its an honor. because you know ordinarily if not for the red idiots you wouldn't even be a topic today

All I see is a man who has been living in s waste for his whole life.

I see you cannot contain your deep-seated hate, resentment and envy towards the Igbos...even American government is aware of it!


"Igbos are wandering Jews of West Africa - gifted, aggressive, westernized, and at best, envied and resented, but mostly despised by their neighbors in the Federation---" (a White House Memo on Biafra January 28, 1969 to President Nixon by Secretary of State, Henry Kissinger) (Source : U.S Foreign Relations Documents Volume 5 , 1969)

Dr. Thomas Sowell, renowned American philosopher in one of his books recognized four highly gifted peoples across the world: The Jews, Germans, Chinese and Igbos.

Give them Biafra and watch them build a civilization never seen before in a black nation. I repeat...Igbos are not in your level!

Now get out !

kingdom01:

Are you looking for the reasons why igbos hate yoruba?

The number one reason is because of your BETRAYAL & BACK STABBING nature.

Apart from the one Awo did against Ojukwu and the ones that happen in the past.

The most recent one is your betrayal against GEJ a southerner.Everbody knows that this man called Babaonechance will not perform,you still went ahead and voted him.

Don't even say that their is no agreement btw SE\SS and SW,because when SE\SS voted OBJ a yorubaman two times;were there any agreement?

Why do u guys keep mentioning dat Awo/Ojukwu issue. U guys should learn to let tins like dat go. Yoruba people let Ziks betrayal of Awo and Ziks alignment with the North, Ziks collabration with North to send Awo to jail, Aguiyi Ironsi's leaving of Awo in prison to rot, and so on go.
The GEJ issue was simple, the entire SW felt neglected by his government,as there was no visible development here by him, then the unchecked issues of corruption and his seeming indifference to it.
Even before elections, I was in OAU, and I watched Students of all ethnic affiliation carry "GEJ must go" banners, it had to happen, if the SE/SS had presented a better candidate, he migt have had hope, don't forget we voted for GEJ massively in 2011, even at the expense of CAN which controlled our States den, see where that led us, and even Ribadu is nw in PDP.

Of course sympathy will be shown towards a people who lost 3 million lives so scrap that jews garbage but to make things clearer



I have no hate/envy for people who were never known prior to Nigeria



I have no hate/envy for people we educated



I have no hate/envy for people who were still walking unclad decades after we were already clothed





What i hate is the fact that the same people are now being mentioned in the same sentence with us. its unfair and an insult to us

POVERTY the main cause of tribalism.it only d poor dat notice igbo dis,yoruba dat,hausa dis.d tich ar getting into inter tribal marraiges without problems.but d poor wuld b looking for fauit from d next tribe assive dey told dem dey won't make it if dat tribe is with them #ACE

Whatever and West lawmakers to betray the Yorubas, by giving it to Tanbuwal.

Nobody knew/knows Mulikat Adeola, she doesn't command the respect of her people, and she was viewed as largely incompetent and unworthy of Yoruba Leadership, we would rather have nobody than have incompetence to represent us Nationally, Patricia Etteh's issue still haunt a lot of us.

This is a 100yrs truth the ibos compete among themselves only. Guess what ? if the Igbos are poor people among the Yorubas, we wouldnt be hearing some dirty hate speech coming from them. It is a Yoruba fight for envy and jealousy against igbo race. Dont forget Yorubas in their number reside and do business in UK and Canada yet nobody have chest them away. Here is another man's land too. The Yorubas can create their own country if OneNigeria is irritating them. Enough of these childish xenophobia.

Like the Western APCs will always say, "party supremacy" why didn't they respect the party in that case. If you are talking about integrity, was it not Femi that was seen scaling over the House of Assembly fence couple of years ago? Yet he is chosen to represent the West

That is a stupid quote. Yoruba and igbo dont get alone. Igbo people hate yoruba people. Which was clear in goodluck Jonathan government.

You have to know igbo sent a clear message to yoruba people under goodluck Jonathan of hate.

Not only that yoruba are upset, that the igbos have been deceiving them.


Have you ever seen an igbo person who have ever employ a yoruba person before no.

I personally don't want to share my own experience in the last 6 years on the internet.

YOU HAVE TO READ ALL TO UNDERSTAND IN FULL...
OK guys, lemme explain somethings to you.
1) Hausa people had tried an invasion of the SW before, it didn't end well for them, we may not be violent, but we are skilled at self defence. Its not just you guys against them.
2) Every Yoruba is bred with knowledge of the perpetual enmity with Hausa's, infact an average Yoruba thinks of them as idiots (ask why they are called Abokis in SW)
3) Every Yoruba knows that Igbos are less of enemies and more of competitors to us. But every Yoruba also thinks of Igbos as prone to being dubious and disloyal, especially when they are set to benefit from it.
4) Due to the aforementioned, Yorubas prefer sometimes to deal with Hausas (whose state of enmity with them is sure), than with Igbos, who may be their friends but who may betray their trust, something Yoruba people value a lot, and know at least they cannot give to Hausas.
5) Be sure that like Igbos, Yoruba people also have a cause for feud with Hausas, one dat even goes beyond the creation of Nigeria, the place called Ilorin. No true Yoruba does not know of the story of Ilorin, Aare Afonja and Alimi.
6) Yoruba people are generally the most welcoming in this country, you may dispute it, but I've been to most other regions in this country, save NE. Thus we welcome Hausas as much as we welcome Igbos, Idomas, Efiks, Igalas, Tivs, etc. You are all welcomed in our Lands ( we don't like that no mans land talk).
7) Due to Pre-colonial trading, a lot of lingual similarities have occured between Hausas and Yorubas, thus in modern life, it may tell why Yorubas seem to understand Hausas and their Language/Culture faster and better than Igbos and their language/Culture. Its not for animosity.
8 . ) This is subject to dispute, but an average Yoruba person,like Artisans and Traders and co, is highly interested in politics and governance, but doesn't really give a damn about either the Unity or Seperation of Nigeria, although when asked most would reply that "we are better off on our own".
9) The above Stated reason is why not too many Yoruba people go out of the SW for residence and those that do so are considered doing it at their own risk.
10) Yorubas are benefiting the most from the fracas between Hausas and Igbos, as they are able to make both bring their resources meant for other parts of the country to the SW, due to their non-partisan accommodation. Why do u think SW is the least poor region in the country, and having the highest per capita standard of living (fact from Nigerian Bureau of Statistics)

a) Point (4) contradicts point (2).
b) Point (9) contradicts point (6).

Every human race, economy, people, country etc. has one or two advantage over others like we seen in United State and the people of Israel. No man is an island. Admit what you dont have and extend hands to people that have them. China has a long histroy of coping into other invention to drive. Yet America a world power still need China somewhere. For the fact, the Igbo remain the most business and greatest industrial mind people in Nigeria aka entrepreneurs. The strength and the presence of their hardworks are visible across Nigeria, in every state and abroad. So it should be easy for other people to discover and work on their natural abilities, then going about picking on other people's potentials. Work more to develop your strength and that area of ur weakness is someone/people strength simple.That my stand, you cannot do your own and do mine too. Go and do what you know best. Am not here to get you any list.
