There is a remarkable difference between interstate wars (we had city-states) and inter clan wars. Cannibalism as a cultural practice was never documented or found in the West. We were just more civilized, facts you or I can't change.

CSTR12:
I don't where rival clans eat other rival clans in the east. It is the west i know that engages in very bloody communal conflicts.
Besides, democratic system in the east though not perfect was superior to anything in any other part of Nigeria.It could have undergone a lot of positive evolution with time.
Capitalism is individualistic. Even in america and western europe today, which is why we have the american dream where anybody can aspire to be anything as long you are able to work hard for it.Which is Why we have the global 1%.
Corporate capitalism whatever that means is more or less socialism or even communism.

Here's what Balarabe Musa had to say (which was collaborated by SLS) concerning your misinformation:

"... the Yoruba political leadership has shown itself over the years to be incapable of rising above narrow tribal interests and reciprocating goodwill from other sections of the country by treating other groups with respect. Practically every crisis in Nigeria since independence has its roots in this attitude."

CSTR12:
Cannibalism was found in every nook and cranny of Nigeria in varying proportions. And even in the developed europe at a point in their history.

kayfra:


America and Europe practice a mixed economy. There are too many social safety nets that calling them capitalists countries is laughable.

The only country that practices 100% capitalism is Somalia.

The Igbos are great and intelligent people in fact Igbo man can turn sand into gold anywhere in Africa, but their main problem is clannishness, and you know this breeds distrust and suspicion among their hosts. The Igbos should learn to be more liberal and open when they are outside Igboland especially where they seem to be progressing more than their host, I said this will avert unwarranted suspicion leading to hatred and jealousy....further to pogrom etc. my 2cent.

Now you are bringing up a different issue.
Ofcourse , any sane country would have safety nets for the vulnerable and the poor. Iit dosen't make them less capitalistic.
The richest brands in the world are in america. America's defence industry is not even in the hands of the state.
APPLE corporation founded by one man steve jobs at a certain point had more raw cash in its disposal than the US government. You can never be more capitalistic than that.

This is hilarious indeed! It's an open secret that inspite of the supposed superior education of the Yorubas they seem not to be detached from ritual-killings and cannibalism. And that's why evil forests pervade Yoruba enclave.

In SE the popular Okija shrine is not up to a local government area but in the SW a whole 2 States are dedicated to wicked deities - Ogun and Osun.

Till date many Yorubas rarely believe that one can achieve success without recourse to rituals. The notoriety of the Yoruba nation in this regard warranted a Kenyan to go into a research and was able to come up with a verdict that Yorubas are the most fetish tribe in Africa.

sukkot:
it is impossible. it is biblical rivalry. yoruba is jacob and ndigbo is esau. we are brothers but born with spiritual enmity lolzzz

castrogee:



You've just made half sense. Let me agree with you that the Igbos are clannish, which BTW in my judgment is not bad. However, why will Igbos change there ways? Is it just because you said so, and if that is the case who are you to counsel us? How has being clannish prevented Igbos from making great exploits. Well, at least if you must know every tribe, race, or people on this planet earth has something good or bad about them and if being clannish makes us bad SO BE IT!

sukkot:
just to further prove that everything written about in the bible is happening on earth today, if your spiritual eyes are open you will see it all, and to let you know igbo is esau and hence why the hatred for yoruba aka jacob. the name esau is derived from edom which means red earth and this is why all the land in the east is red soil. this is all biblical. then esau was cursed to be a wanderer and he will be wandering all over the globe as a wanderer and fugitive on exile which is why ndigbo travel everywhere in the world even to the remotest parts of the world. this all spiritual. the LORD has put it in their spirit to be wanderers. point being they are esau and have a PERFECT HATRED for yoruba who is jacob. so there can never be love between the two .

Professor sukkot . I dey always feel your funny comments.

Cannibalism is not equal to ritual killing.

But fact remains that America practices a mixed economy. Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security, Obamacare, Section 8, WIC (food stamps), farm subsidies etc etc too many to list.

You find both system in the West. The east is just more dogged with their capitalism compared to other regions in Nigeria. It's both a strength and a weakness.

CSTR12:
A mixed economy as practiced by america is not the kind you are trying to emphasize. Creating aid packages for the vulnerable does not make them less capitalistic. Capitalism is part of the american psyche
The east also has a similar socialistic programes for the poor. Imo state runs a free university courtesy of okorocha(i don't want to go into feasibility), other governors in the east have been known to give out LOANS. That is the kind of socialistic program i support anyway.
America gives free money to the poor, but that is because they can now afford to. Capitalism has created a lot of rich folks who can then be taxed by the state to cater for the poor.
Nigeria is not rich enough. Our socialistic program which we can not afford anyway is not productive.

What if you want to have something to do with them? Your entire village will be on their way to Yorubaland?

How can we put an end to the incessant e-fights and supremacy battles between this two southern tribes?


I think it's time to make peace so we can unite and take over the leadership of this country. The north keeps dominating the south politically because they are united and they exploit the divisions in the south for their political benefits. Let's sheath our swords and embrace peace.


Yoruba and igbo rivalry on Nairaland ends today

Realman87:


There is NO rivalry between Igbos and yorubas. Fact is: the Igbos are Superior to the yorubas. the World knows it. About southern unity, forget it. the SW must sojourn alone in the political wilderness they created for themselves. When eventually, they return to join their southern brothers, they would have lost all respect and would be an outcast.

Henrydone:
A barbaric barmy tribal bigot such a shame do you have to come here to unmask your exponential mental malady you just made a circumstantial claim and you are referencing to a write-up not even realistic. To make such polemic write-up to a tribe is cockeyed and just too choleric

Igbos are the least respected in nigeria that's why they keep screaming biafra. Even the ijaws in the SS are more politically relevant than igbos. Never u compare igbo to yoruba.

A useless cretin from a carnivorous set of beings, you must be suffering from an abnormal psychological narcissism and seem not to even realize it. You're terribly sick and indeed undergoing an incubation period just like the HIV virus.

As if the numerous ritual-killings and cannibalism happening all around your juju-infested enclave aren't enough circumstantial evidence of Yoruba barbarism.

Useless, dimwitted bigot!

joborskill:
Stop referring to the yoruba's as ritualist. Everyone in nigeria know cannibalism originated in the east. The evil okija shrine and the ritual sacrifice of the disbanded bakasi boys have no match. The only case of ritual killings reported in the SW is the discovery of soka forest in ibadan and the governor ordered the closure and arrest of the culprits. Yoruba's are not canines who munch human flesh. You igbos should look inward
