Even Algerians, thai, Indians, lebanese, Saudis, Egyptians pakistanis, tunisians, morrocans and libyans are all Oyimbo in for Nigerians.

Illiteracy or what? grin

Not necessarily illiteracy lol, I guess it's because they aren't around them enough to make that much of an effort to distinguish them
Perharps, Anyone who isn't Caucasian is not Oyimbo, even some westerners see others as not white, like Italians, spanish and portugues.

I totally dislike people who do such things, its not cute and we should not encourage it. I was lucky to travel to America to visit a friend and he took me and his Nigerian friends to an All You Can Eat Chinese buffet. His stupid friends kept calling the Chinese waitress "enwe" which means "monkey" in Igbo just to get her attention. The Chinese lady would come to our table all smiles not knowing she was being mocked. When I realized they were insulting the young waitress working her ass off to make sure we were happy, i got really angry and asked them to stop. I will never partake in such idiocy, its demeaning and distasteful.
Like the way they bully people in romance section. Lol

You don't have to be this harsh....I really don't support what the guy did...its truly immature. I have come to understand one thing in life....please don't take this as an insult. The thing is, successful people who are progressing on the cadre of their career, be it politics, business, music, academics... Just name it, hardly refers to a whole tribe or group of people to tag them with certain negative words. This is because if you have excelled at all, you will certainly come in contact with great people from other tribes who may have helped you in one way or the other. This makes it more difficult for you to easily generalize. That is why you won't ever hear people like Dangote, Tinubu, Elumelu,Peter Obi, Obasanjo, Soyinka etc publicly and outrightly make generalized ill statement about any tribe. So if you are yet to "blow" and you hope to blow someday then you have to start practising from today. My two kobo

Yes she is oyibo, i refuse to protect the white race. After all, many white people call biracials black in order to keep their race ''pure''. I treat white people less than my fellow browns, so if you are oyibo be ready to lick my ass.
