Favor99:

What are you talking about?
If you don’t have anything intelligent to say, please don’t say it

Almaiga:


Who be this man, Weting dey worry you?
So because you are an indegene of Edo, I shouldn't pen my opinion?

frozen70:


E be like say na your state, lol

Everything I said made sense, that's why you are reacting on my post

Favor99:

You spend a good deal of time cussing out Igbos on a lot of your posts. And now Edo.
This kind of foolish talk is why Nigerians had to have their freedom of speech taken from them during the military era in the 70’s, 80’s and 90’s.
It’s this kind of misbehavior

Almaiga:



How does stating the facts result to insult, what part of my statement is not true?

Favor99:

No nothing you said made sense.
Dissing and saying tribalistic things about your own countrymen doesn’t make sense.
Only black people do those kind of things.

Favor99:

They are stereotypes not facts.
And your post is prejudice. So all of it is bull

frozen70:


Swear, that you have never for once in your entire existence distrabalised any tribe

Either by joke or by debate

All the information I stated above are first hand info, not some "stereotypes". Like I stated earlier, I've been in Benin for over three years now. So I know Benin and their character like the back of my hand.

Favor99:

No your just someone that hates Benin and other ethnic groups that aren’t Yoruba.
It’s hatred and tribalism.
This is how you guys have been ganging up on Igbos for the past 50 years. And then Igbos started hating you all for it. And then you start saying Igbos hate everyone but themselves.
Although I know Igbos are also very tribalist towards us

Almaiga:


Who told you I'm Yoruba?

Abeg, face the topic of discussion and leave the Igbo's out of it.

The end SARS crew have gone back to their trade,
They want to use Edo as a testing ground before migrating to other part.

Nigeria is not yet ripe for gentle man police force, we"re too unpredictable.

I ran after the bus, luckily for me, there was traffic around wire road. That was where I caught up with the idiots. As a wiseman, they had no choice but to give me my phone, they collected small beating on top.

I truly admire your loyalty, love and support for your state.
Many people don't seem to know how to separate Edo as a state from Benin as it's capital.
So people just generally hate anything Edo. This is sad and bad.

I support you Favor99 in saying that no place in Nigeria has the monopoly for crime and evil.
Funny thing I've heard someone from one of the big 3 tribes as you have put it, say that Benin people are learning when it comes to jazz from their side.
- yet people attribute Benin or Edo to witchcraft. Smh

People say that Edo is criminal but all the time I am in Benin i don't face them, but I was robbed twice in one of the big cities in one of the big 3 tribes of Nigeria.
People say Edo girls like prostitution but these exist in large numbers in other regions in Nigeria who do covertly. Non-Edos also are the ones patronising these so called Edo prostitutes.

The most intelligent family in the UK are Edos. Omotola's husband is from Edo. Aboniki balm and minimie chinchin are produced in Edo. NIHORT palms located in Edo is what made Malaysia great. Okomu oil, Presco, Gelegele port, Ososo hills, Okpella cement where BUA and Dangote are fighting over are in Edo. Many of your sports people, TV people (Suleiman Of TVC, John Momoh of BON, Chris Iliems of Channels and so many others are from Edo), business people Ine oil and motors, and others I can't remember for now are from Edo. Wives of many of your big men, monarchs, politicians are from Edo. Fashola finished from Uniben. Sultan of Sokoto served in the military for a long while in Benin. The 2017 UNILORIN convocation lecture was by a Bini man who has several phds. The man with several phds and masters making drones for the USA military is an Edo man. Is it in politics? see your APC chair, Daisy Danjuma, Obahiagbon, Matthew who called for impeachment for someone who was travelling so much. Murtala Mohammed was originally was the northern part of Edo. Abdulsalaam's vice was Edo. IBB's was an Edo man... I don tire, I no be historian. Is it in medicine? The longest serving doctor for Aso rock was an Edo man. Stella Obasanjo was Edo. Long serving chairman of UBA, and that of Access are Edos (Bello-Osagie and Aig-Imuo... (i can't spell it). Owner of Arik air and the then Okada air are Edos. The word Okada which is used for motor bikes is from Edo. Archbishop Benson Idahosa who mentored many of your pastors and bishops was Edo (Bini), Lagos cardinal Okojie is Edo. Your Tboss na Edo and Mercy Aigbe, Owen G, Djinee, Victor Uwaifo, Alex Osifo and even late Sam Loco. Please allow me to rest, I don tire, post don dey too long.

From this post I've tried not to mention any tribe, people or state or even region.
I am not from Edo state.
I am not from any of the big 3 tribes.
My family cuts across 4 different tribes and I've in laws from other tribes.
By reason of school, NYSC, further schooling, conferences, conventions, work and passing through including deliberate vacations and visits, I have been privileged to have been to all the regions (not fully been to North-East, except Bauchi) in Nigeria and almost 28 states if not more. By being to, I mean stayed upwards 3 months, 2 days or even 5 years. I have been to all those place without prejudice or attempt to avoid those places. I served in a state that even my own sister had earlier redeployed from . I've been posted to schools in places that I had little or no control over including Benin city and Auchi.

I have witnessed crimes, prostitution, internet fraud, cultists, armed robbery, assassination, diabolic acts, rituals, occultism and all sorts of crimes in more states than in Benin, but who's comparing not i because it's not something to brag about, demean another about, or castigate anyone for.
We all have to work for the safety in Nigeria.
Netherlands is closing down prisons and we say it's a safe country. We don't mention any particular state in it, we just say the entire country.
How much cooler will it be if we all as Nigerians can gladly say that Nigeria as an entire country is a peaceful and safe place. That would be awesome.

I love Nigeria.
I hate tribalism, prejudice, heating up the political, lies, superiority complexes, stereotypes and evil propaganda.

Am talking based on facts not on emotions.. Nigerians are known for prostitution abroad thanks to Edo indigenes..Edo indigenes are minorities but they have highest internet scammers compared to other major tribes like hausa.Edos are minorities but they are the major tribe too that have stained nigerian image abroad with their prostitution and internet scams.Na only Edo boys dey take their nonsense cult activities abroad with them..Edo is one of the states that ordinary primary school student is already a cultist..
