That image you've posted is false in its entirety. The so-called article barely mentioned how they came up with their statistics nor how they went about with their so-called index. For what it is worth, just anybody can put up anything on the internet. Just because it comes from a website or blog does not mean it is valid.

bigfrancis21:


If that's the case, why dating an Igbo in the first place?

BlaqCoffee109:
i feel sorry for him,because he did it out of pressure and duty..trust me,he just acquired a window dressing...thing is another IBO guy who would give anything for me to accept his proposal..his ex was an Edo babe whom he told me he loved to bits but his father fought against his settling down with her and told him to bring home an Igbo girl..in his search for an Igbo girl,we met..but I just from the get -go don't want anymore of the drama..but he claims he is ready to be his own man and marry his choice...

I didn't say it was valid... I also said what I thought, based on my real life experiences.
Tribalism is prevalent all across Nigeria (And Africa), but for various reasons, some groups have higher prevalence...
Do you honestly think Hausas igbos and yorubas exhibit tribalism in equal doses?

Aareonakakanfo:



For me i think our level of bigotry is equal. I don't think Yorubas are less bigoted than other tribes.From omo Igbo to ajeokutamumi, nyamiri, ofe mmanu gambari e.t.c We're all gulity

bigfrancis21:


Aww...you have a thing for Igbo guys. Love nwantinti. . Keep searching sha. You'll find someone.

Have you considered dating a Yoruba guy? Or are you open to dating only Igbo guys?

If you're going to marry an Igbo guy, you had first learned to spell his tribal name properly - 'igbo' and not 'ibo'.

You just dey use style give the babe sliding tackle

BlaqCoffee109:
thank you Scholes..the b in IBO stands for bigotry..hence my question,won't the agitation for Biafra fuel the prejudice?

scholes0:


I know that we are all guilty of tribalism.
But ..... In my opinion, the average urban Yoruba is exposed to Igbos and Hausas, while the average eastern dweller not as much. The average Northerner is a muslim, who disregards anything un-islamic.
You know what they say.... ignorance breeds bigotry, it is easier to disdain something you are not familiar with.

I also said what I thought, based on my real life experiences. Also a lot of people from all over have told me they wouldn't feel comfortable living in the East, as opposed to living in other peaceful parts of Nigeria.

lol.... I am not taking this agitation for Biafra thing serious, Abeg.
All the signs of a serious secessionist movement are lacking..... for me, I just see it as a cyclic phase of dissatisfaction. The current movement will wane, and then another rabble rouser will take its place.

BlaqCoffee109:
..Aareonakakanfo,what is sliding tackle?

bigfrancis21:


What of the 'b' in YoruBa?

bigfrancis21:


The only tribe who will have issues with living in the east is the Yoruba because they are hardly independent minded and enterprising enough to travel outside their region to survive.

Aareonakakanfo:

BlaqCoffee109:
Baale or beaitiful

Aareonakakanfo:




But wait ooo. I will be honest with you swiree you're like the first Yoruba babe i'd see liking igbo men.Most of the Yoruba babes i know don't consider anyone Non-Yoruba,they will rather remain single. Keneshuku must have done a great job

BlaqCoffee109:
...thanks mehn..I even learnt how to cook local Igbo dishes self..na me be dis? oh,hian..love dey humble eh..mtcheew..love nwatintin
.lmao

You see......
That is one place you are wrong.

There are THRIVING yoruba communities in places like Kaduna, Minna, Benin Etc. If I should go by history, Yoruba and Hausa communities were the first to transplant themselves in other countries, before the Igbos started mass migration.
There are also communities numbering into the thousands in places like Ivory Coast, Ghana (Tamale, Accra, Kumasi) and further afield elsewhere.
they just avoid the east, where do you get this notion that the Yoruba isn't independent or enterprising enough to survive outside his region?

That's one good way to work your way into an Igbo guy's heart and is definitely a good step in the right direction. Make sure you perfect yourself in that such that no Adaobi or Adamma is better than you.

You'll also be open to learning the Igbo language as well. This is often another source of issues against Yoruba ladies as some of them, from experience, who had married Igbo guys were unwilling to learn and speak Igbo. Some of them try to subjugate the Igbo culture and raise the kids in the Yoruba culture only, forgetting that Nigeria is a paternalistic country and kids are by first and foremost identified with where their father is from. One would often wonder why they married an Igbo in the first place when they would not be open to the Igbo culture.

On the other hand, Igbo ladies married to Yoruba men tend to embrace their husband's culture more than the Yoruba ladies are willing to embrace their Igbo husband's culture.

.. ..triple A ratings
.but right now I need me a man who can do the 7 star treatment..maybe Bigfrancis will know one

Aareonakakanfo:



You dey mind am.The igbo habit of travelling is not because they naturally are.Its due to circumstances.Prior to the civil war,how many igbos were outside the country.Ijebu people have been travelling outside the Yoruba kingdom to do business before Nigeria was even formed

Back to his alaibo-made claim that yorubas are hardly independent/enterprising .I'm still wondering where he got the notion that igbos are more enterprising than Yorubas.Do i need to be a trader for you to consider me independent? Are freelancers relying on Government?

Are yoruba bricklayers, carpenters, vulcanizers, taxi drivers collecting money from government?

What is the difference between the so-called "independent" traders and the ones i mentioned above?

Are we saying there are no igbos relying on Government?

Bigfrancis i need answers?

bigfrancis21:


She needs a hardworking and rich man (nwoke ji ego) who will spoil her all her life, send her for compulsory shopping to Dubai every summer, send her to obodo oyibo for ante-natal and childbirth, open one happening boutique for her in VI, buy the latest Honda models for her, send her kids to the best of schools, spend lavishly on her na nta n'imo niine. Now tell me why anybody wouldn't want an Igbo guy as husband.

Aareonakakanfo:




Nwanne this your love for omo ibo is making me jealous ooo.
