A Nigerian corp member sent to serve in the East has recounted how she and her colleagues from the North were taunted by the principal and students of the school they were posted to. Very sad tweets. Continues below. http://www.lailasblog.com/2017/02/i-thought-youre-buharis-sister-corp.html 1 Share

If indeed this happened then it is bad. But again i am not a Northerner, but my Service in the East was really enjoyable,even if i had to be battling with Scorpions that crawled into my room in the village i served nearly everyday. I was treated real nice in the East. Funny Story: So the first day we Corps Members reported to the school we were to teach, at the assembly line that morning, all we kept hearing was HOLY GHOST FIRE, HOLY GHOST FIRE in the morning devotion at the School, as the prayers was conducted in the Ibo Dialect. Later one of the female Corper who was an Easterner now informed us that the prayers was for us the male corpers. And that if we had plans on getting any student pregnant then HOLY GHOST FIRE. 176 Likes 9 Shares |

This happens everywhere in the country. First I was in Lagos attending an RCCG church in Ikeja, a first timer. During the Sunday school class, the pastor starts to rant about all these ibo people, they are problematic, they are this and they are that. I just siddon they look, although I am not ibo but Damn. Second I travelled to the north to visit my aunt and she told me how some of the hausas do harass them calling them infidels and stuff, threatening to kill them. Thirdly, my friend contested for an sug position in BUK kano, dude was a Muslim from kogi, not from the core north, and couldn't speak hausa fluently, that single 'flaw' was used against him in the elections, he lost gallantly. I could go on and on, it's a sad reality. When you are in a place like that, try to blend in. My aunt in the north wraps a veil (gele) over her head now, that has eased the harassment. You should try to blend in, they are just being afraid and fearful people are harmful people. Sorry 123 Likes 10 Shares |

those people weren't nice to u at all and that's bad. But this shouldn't be a surprise to anybody. Igbos are tagged drug peddlers, yorubas ritualists(fetish) and hausas terrorists. let's always caution our brothers back home coz what ever they do affects and follows us everywhere we go. it affects how people see us. 21 Likes 1 Share |

Why does these people always like to play the victim when they are the most tribalistic people I have ever seen? I served in ekiti. Go to the banks, you will be amazed how a banker treats you if you can't say ekulere oh, eseooo. It's everywhere. Not to boast, I graduated the best in my department 2014, in a federal university of technology in the north. I was told to my face I can't be retained cos I'm an Igbo. So what's the fuse. The people who go around throwing bombs wear the hijab. Its only logical for people to be hostile towards you putting on the hijab. That has got to change though if Nigeria is to move forward. But ranting about nothing making you ever to go to the east, Igbos feel the same way too. Nigeria has always been divided ethnically, religiously, and otherwise. It didn't start from where you experienced it. Where did omo ibo originate from? Enyamiri nko? 130 Likes 2 Shares |

Every tribe in Nigeria always has something unpleasant to say against other tribes. Those unpleasant things may or may not be true but we cannot move forward as a country if we dwell on each other's weaknesses and bad habits. Let us rather focus on each other's strength and encourage ourselves to be better people. 19 Likes 1 Share |

Well, your people behave worse in their region If you ain't Hausa or can't speak, you gotta be careful. I had a friend who had to go about with hijab just to keep herself safe. If your people nor bomb, shey dem go describe una as such?? I hate tribal and religious bigotry tho! #Adonis3HasSpoken 15 Likes |

Sorry if this happened to you. Still be grateful it was just verbal assault not physical or outright slaughter! The seed most of your kit and kin sowed up north and all over the country is what you few are reaping now. If you've ever witnessed a trailer bringing back the massacred body of your kins men then your rant is justified. Otherwise lemme keep looking for a fork to give 53 Likes 1 Share

Tribalism is eating hard on us Nigerians, even Seun is the c0 grand bigot of both Religion and Tribal ish. I'm using this medium to call on Seun Osewa, to look into this wild fire of hatred here on NL...it's unbearable.
