Nigerians are intelligent. We are smart and confident... Congrats babe!

i wonder why asking about someones ethnicity makes som people feel like there is ethnocentrism and xenophobia in the air. Perhaps, these people have lost touch with african culture.

In africa, our being able to identify with our ethnic group, culture and family is a statement that we are not just anyone, but a true son of the soil. So when i ask you where you are from, i am not asking to know just how to treat you, but i just want to identify you down to your root.

Observation!This lady is too beautiful to be brilliant...Strange but true...Proud Nigeria!

Dis is an epitome of beauty n brain, an example to all dis lazy ones we have around here in Nigeria, go girl! Its ur turn, wnt mind to have her as mine though!

ekt_bear: What is her ethnicity? Hard for me to identify it by her name or state of birth.

bigot

Not that it really matters, but I think she's from an ethnic group called the Margi (Marghi), that can be found in southern Borno and part of Adamawa.

The "evidence" I used to reach this conclusion is rather tenuous though and the reasoning behind this conclusion is not particularly solid, but it's my best guess.

Anyway, congratulations to her.

Interesting, I've never heard of that ethnic group before.

I googled around a bit, saw some Adamawa connections, but didn't realize that she is from an ethnic group that exists in both states.

Likely some combination of faux political correctness, lack of curiosity and general brainlessness.

I'll inquire about where Yoruba, Indian or white friends of mine are from, talk less of a Nigerian with a Ghanaian-sounding name

abdulkayus: Hey, all of u making noise askin abt her ethnicity, she is frm Borno state bt school in kaduna, born and bred in northern Nigeria. I knw some peeps could hav wish its otherwise, hahahahahaha, every region in 9ja all got both d good and d bad ones, so shove ur sentiments into ur ass.

Well, the name sounds Itsekiri in a way, especially the Nana part.

Dygeasy: brilliance

mr ITK, nobody is above is mistake

ekt_bear: I'm always curious about ethnicity.

I don't know if she is Kanuri, or from one of those other ethnic groups in Borno (or elsewhere in the north).

If you don't know the answer to the question and are not interested in such things, then kindly ignore my post...the post isn't for your consumption anyways.

she is babur bura

aminho: she is babur bura

Why do you say this? Is her last name Bura? I'm not saying I disbelieve you btw, just curious about your reasoning.

ekt_bear: What is her ethnicity? Hard for me to identify it by her name or state of birth.

She is obviously from the Marghi speaking part of Borno State, one of the many minority tribes in the state known for academic excellence!

....went to the same sec skul buh still remained a dumb niqqa.........kudos to her though....ain't an easy fit mehn...

ibhena:

Elaborate on why it is obvious. Keep in mind that I am not from anywhere near Borno, so some things that are obvious to you will be less so to me.

@topic...she is from my clan and tribe.. Are you wondering...my clan is proudly9ja and tribe...GreenWhiteGreen!...btw..dis should increase the price of garri on the international market...#proudgarriAdvocate...

carzola: dat gurl luks 30 nd dos white guys luk asian, any way how dos dis change d price of akara nd bread

It doesn‘t actually change d price of bread and akara but it shows that not all nigerians have IQ of 69 like you do!

berem: what do you wanna do with her ethnicity? Unfortunately she is not Yoruba. Mtscheeew!

This is indeed a great achievement.she has really done us proud.congratulations to her success.

You've got beef for the renowned brilliance of Yoruba people?The guy asking is nt even yoruba.

Thank God fr bringing out smthin good frm Borno,nt jst BH evryday....cngrats gal,9ja is da best!!
