Aigbofa: You are going on as if Yoruba wants to be in a southern Nigeria with you. Am sure if that were to ever happen there will be an iron clad secession clause that will guarantee we ditch your arse as soon as you start any nonsense.

Baby mama:


That is what they do best
It hurts them that Chinua is Igbo
Yorubas and rabid tribalism,two peas in a pod
Of all the tribes in Nigeria,Yoruba is the least I would want my child to marry
The tribalism and hatred in their hearts run deep,almost like a curse deeper than the grooves on their faces
I would gladly give her to an Efik,Ibibio,Annang,Ijaw,Ikwerre,Isoko,Urhobo,Tiv,Idoma,the minority tribes of the north ,Yoruba is last
I would even I refer she married Ghanaian or Togolese than Yoruba
I say so because Tunde my son inlaw may be nice,but he is in the midst of Ade,Gbolahan,Gbenga and many that think like the posters I read here
I would never want that for my child.
Have you ever asked yourself why Yorubas have no problems with Efik, Ibibio, Annang,Ikwerre and all the other tribes you mentioned? Am not even sure they have any problem with Ibos, but it seems ibos cannot help creating enemies for themselves.

As someone who enjoys parties I hate Yoruba parties,except for the good jollof rice grin grin
They will not play anything but gba gba gba gba music
They won't even play Dbanj
It will be the real interior interior local Yoruba juju and babalawo music that only Yorubas can dance angry
Very tribalistic people that refuse to broaden their little minds
They won't even learn about other tribes in their same country but come on the Internet and parrot handed down fables

went for a professional exam in ibadan a while back and all the examiners in the hall were yoruba save for one new examiner from rivers state.it was shocking that these people carried on speaking yoruba in front of this lady it was so embarrassing.The poor lady was uncomfortable because it appeared nobody was willing to put her through.

First of all many of you can't even tell who is who
In your little minds many of the people you mentioned are Omo hibos because you refuse to educate yourselves
Secondly an Annang man is not a competition to you
You outnumber them a great deal
I have never read you folks in your usual " go back to your villages " mantra tell Calabars to go back to Calabar or to Ibibioland
Your fear is that of the Igboman as evidenced by this thread
Any success attributed to Igbo makes you uncomfortable
A thread comes out about Innoson motors it must be a Yoruba man to speak ill of it
Why are your hearts as dark as coal?
Had the winner of the award on this thread been Nkere Essien,none of you will be out here
But you hear Achebe and rear your ugly heads to make comparisons

Mgbo pia fu kwa unu isi cheesy

Ok Baby mama, if that is the problem, I will make it my life mission that ibo music is played in every owambe party in Yorubaland. Truce? But talking of little minds, I still don't understand why somebody like Achebe will bring himself down to the level of Nairaland's willy-willy.

You mean OBJ was rapping the woman wey born him Papa like they do for Sport in Enugu? See Igbo man daftness as usual

Obi how the thing go be make you dey tell una grandmothers to set nyansh for doggy or raise dem legs up and touch toes?

And the Igwe don talk say na because dem no pay Money. So Osisi you dey hear so? If you dey go home you better carry anti-raapee levy for hand


The traditional ruler of Ogbozalla community of OpI Nsukka, (apparently the most affected community), in Nsukka local council, Igwe Fabian Ogbuabo, while briefing the public hearing, said the continuous molestation of old women in his domain was caused by the women's non-compliance with the payment of N100 security levy.

[size=28pt]"The women were told to pay N100 each as security levy to prevent them from being Molested, since they are the targets, but they refused paying and this has made the Neighbourhood Watch to relax in the performance of ensuring the safety of their lives" the Igwe, is one-time Secretary to the Enugu State Government (SSG[/size]).
