interloper: True talk! but i still believe the difference between Yoruba parents and parents from other tribes as regards their attitude to these professions (music/football) isn't much |

MayorofLagos: i fully subscribe to your assertion that sports has become an instrument of political negotiation and am not too taken aback by Segun Odegbami's comment that instead of him being elected as FIFA president, a certain school(s) of thought(s) would rather that it's best be given to a foreigner . . . . .i really wish i can laugh but just brings to bare again what a divisive and vindictive society we come from. . . . . smh sadly |

IyaIode:Of course, the overwhelming majority of Muslims are not terrorists or sympathetic to terrorists. Equating all Muslims with terrorism is wrong. But acknowledging that there is a link between Islam and terror is appropriate and very baffling. But there's one thing we must all be clear about: terrorism is not the pursuit of legitimate goals by some sort of illegitimate means and terrorism has no nationality or religion. Whatever the murderers may be trying to achieve, creating a better world certainly isn't one of their goals. Instead they are out to murder innocent people. As much as one shares your fears because of the large number of muslims in the SW,I think an average Yoruba man has this live and let live attitude and would rather try to convince you to follow his or her faith and if you say,NO...he leaves you to your destiny. |

CabbieAC: I agree. We must not continue to commit same error over and over. No one denies Ogunde is father of cinema and theatrical play in Nigeria...but going by our record in theater and plays and cinema why is Yoruba not the decision maker in that industry? Many of our actors and actresses are complaining of marginalization. This means another group is the mainstream of Nollywood. Right? Aare, You raise good topics for discussion. ![]() |

CabbieAC: Egbon, I beg allow anybody from any non-Igbo tribe (whether he is Efik, Gwari, Edo, Sayyawa, Nupe, Bachama, Kanuri or Yoruba) continue to mark register on any Biafra thread. Do you know why?? ![]() ![]() Anyone who disagrees with their point of view must be Yoruba, any South-South or ND person who does not subscribe to their Biafra crusade is a saboteur, a coward or a lazy drunkard! Anyone who does not dance to their drumbeat of war, is a colonial slave!! Haba, na wetin?? ![]() Of course, since nobody has a monopoly on hate and rancour, people from those non-Igbo groups respond to them in kind! Abi na who be mumu??! ![]() If rebuttals are not issued, any reader that stumbles on their vitriol may think it is a factual account, or the true state of events, and may go away believing their comments are correct. Before we know it, their propaganda would have been taken as fact, rumour would have become legend and ethnic stereotyping would have a field day. There is a need to counter their neurotic submissions, and believe me I would not stop anyone who chooses to do so! ![]() 5 Likes |
