@ OP : why do U have to mention other tribes and how they drink just to justify your

I never knew people had all these misconceptions about Yoruba people. I only hear about the dirty part, promiscuous part and the coward part the most grin.

I have quite a number of Yoruba friends and they are cool so far. That is those who did not grow up in the village.

As for being fetish, any one who wants to do jazz will refer you to Ijebu Ode. If the person is an Alfa and from Ijebu, only Jesus can save that victim (oh I forgot to mention that Hausa jazz id one of the strongest too.)

It is a misconception that the Yorubas are the most intelligent in the country,there are more intelligent people in Edo and Delta.

There is no denying the fact that most yorubas are cowards and very timid. They do not feel safe outside south-west.

It is a misconception also that they are very respectful,they mainly show respect to their folks and people they know.You cannot see a yoruba person lieing down to greet an elder from another tribe.
dey there they deceive yourself, you know as well as i know that yoruba people are the most intelligent, the number of nobel laureates and professors in the yoruba tribe can attest to that
and your people keep saying yoruba are cowards and timid, why? because we refuse to fight your battles for you. what foolish man will fight another's battle? when we are not jesus christ the messiah!
and about yoruba peeps not respecting people outside their tribe,well...respect is reciprocal, why should a yoruba guy prostrate to greet an elderly person from a tribe he knows fully well that their younglings wont reciprocate to yoruba elders? and to make matter worse, these youglings are never corrected because "it is not in their culture"

It is no misconception that it is only the yoruba tribe among other tribes in nigeria that you will see defecating and releasing excreta in public. ÐεƔ are the major reason why the WHO declared nigeria as the country with the worst public shittting system in the world.
