It has been a great experience serving my fatherland. I was posted to Edo state to serve. By the way, I'm ezekiel from benue state, I'am graduate of history from Ahmadu Bello University. Fast forward to my PPA: my first day at my PPA, we were warmly welcomed and entertained lavishly by our senior corpers, so I decided to stay in the corpers lodge because the place is nice and well equipped. Though I was the only one from benue state among the corpers staying in the lodge, the population of yorubas and igbos were almost even, and we had 2 hausas. So life began with all the 3 ethnic groups living under thesame roof. So straight to the point.

WHAT I OBSERVED ABOUT THE YORUBAS.

1. Yorubas prefers to communicate in english most times when they are aware they have someone from another listening to them, at least one would know they won't sell him/her. Lol...
2. Yorubas are very good with constructive arguments, they argue with points without insulting and believe me, before you can win a yoruba man in an argument, you have a lot of work to do.

3. Yorubas are so difficult to predict! I think that's where their strength lies, you can't really know their mind especially if you've offended them before.
4. They are romantic! Its only a yoruba man you would see in our lodge that helps the ladies to loose their hair, watch their boring korean film with them even if they don't like it, stay with the ladies most times in the kitchen when cooking etc.
5. Yoruba guys and igbo girls have flair for each other: we always see them play, gist, party together. Some of them even dated. They are just kind of connected.
6. Its like Ekiti people (yorubas) are naturally notorious, I served with 3 of them, they are the ones that causes trouble in the lodge.

7. They like social activities like parties, sports etc.
8. And lastly they are naturally nice, accommodating and always ready to take up responsibility.

WHAT I OBSERVED ABOUT THE IGBOS.
1. Igbos does not know how to hide feelings. When they are angry you would know they are, and if they don't like you it means they don't like you.
2. Igbos are too predictable, you can easily know or guess what they would do.
3. Igbos are fun to be with. You would just be laughing whenever you are around them
4. Once an igbo woman loves you, it means she loves you and she does not bloody care about what people will say! "Mehn igbo women sabi love o" they are also attracted to yoruba guys!

5. Igbos like looking for trouble either jokingly or seriously. Lol...

6. Igbo men are not romantic: too serious, rigid and not flexible.

7. Igbo language is difficult to understand, mehn I tried my best but I could only grab few like gaanu koma, ndeewo etc.
8. And lastly, they are creative, open-minded and associate more with themselves. All I have to say is thank God for keeping my alive to witness another milestone. To all my NYSC friends: Rasheed, Japheth, Kosi, oliseh, okey, timilehin, I love you all.

@TooEasy. May I ask, are the Igbos and Yorubas always at dagga drawn, as they are here on NL, in your camp?

Liberty101:
This if funny, using less than 10 people to judge an entire tribe of more than 10million.

YorubasAreStupid:
NONSENSE

TooEasy:

Not really bro. Except if an argument comes up. But what I also observed is: the igbos that mixes well and that are less troublesome are the ones that never grew up or did not spend much time in their region. How was it in ir camp ?

I served in the north some sixteen years ago I mixed very well with my brothers from the east; there was no NLand then and nothing much to create and spread hatred in the minds of the young ones

TooEasy:

Not judging anyone bro. Just an observation.

sinkhole:
@OP, mpandevee (I don't know if you are TIV? I am Yoruba) You seem to have done some good research during your service. Most of your observations are quite correct but some can not be generalized!
As for the Ekiti people; The Ekiti and the Ijesha are generally very stubborn among the Yorubas (consider Aregbesola (Ijesha) and Fayose (Ekiti)), they are not criminals but they are very stubborn, they can quickly degenerate argument into a fight

TooEasy:

I know they are not criminals but they argue a lot and they like raising their voice.

TheEastActivist:


Don't mind the guy abeg, he equally do not know what sample means.

He didnt know one can use ten random items from a given population of 1M to observe your data and draw your conclusion perfectly.

Stat 101.

But baba how do you know or come to the conclusion that Igbo's that didn't grow in the east are not tge one troublesome but otherwise...

Chey you wan divide us abi?

It is same everywhere; a typical northerner who was born in Katsina, schooled in Maiduguri, served in Sokoto and is working in Abuja will be far more hostile than the one who is born in Gombe, schooled in Jos, served in Port Harcourt and works in Lagos

sinkhole:
You are very correct, then Fayose's behaviour should not be entirely strange to you

Bros 16 years no be beans o! Nigeria was still united then naw. But now our youths has abused the relevance and importance of social media with hate messages. May God deliver us.

Hmmmm, sincerely speaking, typing 16yrs actually shocked me too, but it looks like yesterday and my only joy is that I have achieved quite much since that time! The only advice I can give you is to not always think that next year is 365 days to come but that next year is tomorrow; as somebody said "differ not till tomorrow, what today can achieve"

Maxcollins042:

Like seriously? You are judging a tribe with few persons? Oga take time o.
