Opinion: Igbos, South South, Yorubas Are Not Your Enemies by Ihateniggov: 10:58pm On Jan 25, 2021 |
I am Yoruba and most times when I discuss with my fellow Yorubas physically on what is going on in our political sphere, I have never heard anyone speak bad of the Igbos, but reverse is the case online, the hatred I see online against our southerner brothers is way too much. Atimes I feel this people don't mean the hate, I feel they are mostly trolls but most times I am confused. South East, South South, trust me I am a Yoruba man and I don't hate you at all. Ojukwu was a great man,he deserved a presidential burial. He was the first man to see the future of Nigeria even when others where blind, he is my Hero. You won't believe how much Yorubas love you guys until you come down to South West and see for yourself that Yorubas are not your enemies, the enemies are the North. We should be United always. United we stand. JooEeL: Kudos to JooEel for this piece, he said the mind of all meaningful Yorubas not the trolls you find everywhere on cyper space. 6 Likes 2 Shares |

The problem is you yorubas do not immediately,openly condemn,rebuke and deny a bad stand of a fellow Yoruba poster,you keep quiet even when the northerners are hiding under Yoruba monikas to insult and cause division.right now,you can’t tell if a post that’s made against igbos is coming from a Yoruba or hausa,unless the ones that have been busted..lastly the yorubas should learn to always mind their bussiness whenever it comes to Igbo issues. 11 Likes 2 Shares |

Yoruba can never be the enemy of Niger Delta and South East. Our common enemy is poverty, forceful domination, underdevelopment and glaring hate of the people of the Niger Delta and South East. The reason why we in the Niger Delta and South East don't like you guys in the west is because of your betrayal tendency. The Southwest has never supported anything the Niger Delta and South East engages in. From politics to security and economy. Niger Delta are fighting for resource control while South East is fighting for referendum and independence. Niger Delta and South East have been fighting for their survival right from the creation of Nigeria while the West has been frolicking with their benefactors up north. Niger Delta and South East don't hate you but can never support, join you in any issues. Long live Niger Delta Long live South East 4 Likes |

The champions of Yoruba/Igbo bigotry exists only on nairaland. In reality, they are not what they portray online. There is no Igbo/Yoruba feud in the real world. If you want to feel the unity of Nigeria as regards ethnicity and religion, visit major markets in Lagos. 4 Likes |

Hmm this is interesting. It’s just sad the way yorubas pulled us all into this mess with BUHARI. Assuming they used logic after reading all available signs the nation wouldn’t have been where it is today. 2015 isn’t too far back in history to see how they jumped ship just to secure a shaky spot in 2023. Oh how time flies. Soon the long awaited presidential election will be here. Let’s pray we all survive BUHARI’s Nigeria till then. 2 more years abi? We die here 1 Like |

Ihateniggov:My brother, most of those trabal comments come from northern guys who pretend to be Igbo's or Yoruba to cause those hate and fights. I know many of them. They are educated Fulani's and they have many accounts here on nairaland. That's why online, they can succeed in inciting hate among the South's but they can't do it life. As a matter of fact, nothing lasts forever. So, their cup go soon full and South's will be liberated from the demonic Nigeria. 3 Likes |

valenu: But why are they so bent on fostering disunity between Igbos and Yorubas? Of course I admit, Yorubas and Igbos are not one people. We have our differences -- agreed. But mehn, no matter our disagreements over the years, we are never really at each others' throats. I have lived in Lagos, lived with Igbos for long and know the height of disunity we could have and its not significant. But these Fulanis are always first to draw out dagger all the time. But asides that, they always tend to support the terrorist Nigerian Army -- all the time. I don't know how Igbo man is always the problem. I believe its envy and misconception. From my observation, even some so-called south-south are quite envious to the pure Igbo man. Thats my own observation o. |

madmohamed: Hmmmn, I think I have to agree o bro. Cos on Facebook, its easier to track a fake profile unlike here in Nairaland. On Facebook, I dont see so many Yorubas antagonising the Igbos. Of course they do, but usually not as vehemently and as spitefully as it is on NL. But most of the comments I see from names like Musa, Ahmed, Jubril etc. are always carbon-copy of what I see on NL. So I can easily agree with you. But I thought the Fulanis were mainly illiterates. And even if they are crafty originally of course, how did they evolve and take it to another level to learn this divide-and-rule mechanism on cyberspace? 3 Likes |

JooEeL:My brother, I am Igbo and my closest friend is a Yoruba. And he is even a Muslim. So, I just know that it is only online this disunity can happen. The south is made up of different people but all very peaceful minding their business. The north knows that the day the south gets united, that's the end of Nigeria. So, online they try to cause disunity, to make the southern unity zero. They have many accounts either as Yoruba or as Igbo. Whenever there is a topic, they are the first to initiate tribal insults. They don't apply logic in their reasoning. They don't know that by the time the common enemy pushes too far, the south will retaliate to survive. Our main problem is the few top politicians leaking their assez because of the juicy reward. 1 Like |
