As controversial as thes may be, I still wish to go on and put it out. Although I have had series of conversations with both Citizens of the south-south and people frm elswhere in the country and both the former and the latter agreed to know of this dangerous trend. The cross of the issue is this, Virtualy every young lady you meet and even young guys you meet in the Niger delta will always claim to be responsible for themselves even as young between the ages of 15 and 25. They will all tell you to assist them with school fees and feeding money and you will beging to wonder what their parents are doing or are these youth in this geopolitical Zone not proud of their parents sponsorship or is just an iresponsible way of begging money? It may cut across Nigeria bt its way too much in the south south. Just my observation having spent nt less than 4 years in virtualy all the geopolitcal zones in Nigeria. The yorubas so far are the most proud of their parents sponsorship of their education and upkeep. Ur own view cos this is mine.

Seems you have not heard of ALMAJIRI google it for more info. Fend for them selves from as young as 3-4years of age.

Yorubas and children upkeep in the same sentence? Maybe the enlightened few. Most prefer to sponsor ceremonies than provide necessary stuffs for their kids.

For sake of peace on this thread, change your silly headline.

Almajiris fend for theselves and are also fend for by their malams because their parents don't or have given them out to malams. Now how come almost every university girl or boy will never want to agree their parents are paying their fees and bills or thay don't have parents or are with malams lk the almajiris?

@ op what's the meaning of this trash you posted...it's uncalled for.You just have to remove it!

I think the MOD should close this thread, it's without fact. I have also lived in all the zones in Nigeria and I am from all the major tribes, that makes me a complete Nigerian. I can categorically tell you that the most responsible young Nigerians are from the east, ditto south south and north central. I can go into analysis if you so desire. But I think this thread should be closed, no meaning.

NB: I am not from the east.

I must agree that Niger delta girl are very generous .
I used to score eights ,nines easily and got a few tens as well.
I once met an oyinbo who said that the Niger delta was the best place in the whole wide world.
I asked him why?
BMW
Booze ,meat women.
Basically fun without responsibilty.

You are a very big fool. Did the OP tell you that he is Yoruba?
