Afonjas are coneheads, Igbos have normal heads.
Don't fear loudmouthed cowardly Afonjas, they can't do anything to you.

You YORUBA Moslems must stop this show of shame.
We yorubas Christians and are not CONEHEADs and we also refuse the name AFONJAS .
IGBOS are good to us u canot bring disunity between IGBOS and yoruba Christians.

I listened to this boy's family being interviewed on tv and the family said that they left Nigeria on the basis of "Religious Assylum" as they were running away from Boko Haram...

Abeg, since when did Boko Haram start disturbing people in the South West? undecided

His family used petty lies to get away from the country

If you see Igbos before the war, Hulk Hogan no fit stand. See men with broad chests. If they were still alive, them for beat that Afonja Anthony Joshua silly and collect belt for him hand.

It was those lazy and cunning Afonjas who killed all hefty Igbos during the civil war. That is why Igbos with those genes are few. Most of the ones you see today have flat head, heavy chest but tiny hairy legs.

They look like standing fan.

have you noticed that CNN has never showed any thing postive about african americans other than racism and victimization
first it was "CNN doesn't show anything positive about Africans". now it's "CNN doesn't show anything positive about African Americans".
you should stop talking if you don't know what you are talking about.

you should stop talking if you don't know what you are talking about.

if 100, 50, or 20 Africans, Carribeans (Kitts, Bahamas, Jamaica, Haiti, etc), or African Americans died in anything massive, CNN wouldn't care. But if 3 white Americans died in Africa every news outlet across the planet would cry for attention. Kudos to them. It has been noted that a few Americans died in the latest Boeing crashing in Ethiopia and maybe more American deaths included in the massive cyclone in Mozambique but not a wind of attention until much later after these events. Draw your own conclusions. Many Nigerian children died in the latest building infrastructure failure on Buhari's watch and this too wasn't Breaking News across the world (i heard it first on al Jazeera)

Yoruba people also live in the north. Some have their great grandparents settled in the north, and generations after were raised there. I know some families like that

Tanitoluwa Adewumi, an 8-year-old Nigerian whose family reportedly fled Nigeria because of the Boko Haram crisis, is fast becoming a star in the US as he shares what he really love about chess. Gistvic Reports.

Tani was interviewed by CNN as they have a little chat with him, his coach and his mother, Oluwatoyin Adewumi.

Tani said that what he really loves about chess is the "deep thinking" and good understanding of chess.

When CNN asked Tani's mother what this great achievement is to the family, She said "its so great, we are very happy and we are so proud of him". Gistvic Reports.
