Now Pundits Make Your Pick.. Which Is A Better Ethnic Group by Jayjezey: 11:50am On Apr 22, 2015
HAUSA/IGBO/YORUBA

HAUSA
Personally, i like the Hausa man because he is
a free & kind giver, welcoming to strangers
and very sincere when it comes to daily
business dealings. A hausa man will hardly
ever want to cheat you in business.
A hausa man is also a contended person, he
can have a very low class and poor job, but he
would be very contended with it and will thank
God. Also, once a hausa man has liked you,
he will almost show u love to the end, only
one thing can turn that love to hatred
overnight and that thin is TOUCHING HIS
RELIGION.
That is the bad side of the hausa man. A
hausa man can do absolutely anything if you
touch his religion, no matter how wicked, or
heartless it may be. The hausa man is easily
brainwashed by religion, once touch his
(religion), he can completely loose his senses.
Also, the hausa man is the greatest
discriminator (especially in the aspect of
religion). This is why you see that hausas
have derogatory names for different people the
way they view them from their religious point
of views. hausa man when it comes to land.
He will come and settle on your land, you will
welcome him and afterwards when he and his
people & children have populated the place,
they forget or deny everything and turn around
to say they are the original ancestral owners
of the place.

IGBO
The good side of the igbo man is that he is a
very hardworking, industrious and progressive
person. An igbo man always believes in sure
progress (i must succeed) and leaves no room
for failure or laziness.
They are very smart, calculative & enteprising
in nature. They bring peace & development to
wherever they go.
An igbo man is well exposed and well travelled
and interacts well with others. They also have
very good looking and beautiful people. They
are resilient and hard headed people who
always stand after their words and choices
and do not waiver here and there. They easily
integrate and acculturate with others wherever
they are found and show utmost respect to
other peoples cultures wherever they go. They
dont believe in opression of those they are
more than. They believe that they should
always be the best in everything, and this is
where some of their problems come in.
The bad side of the igbo man is that they
always like to be on top when doing anything
with you, they want you to play foolish and
them wise. Some of them see all other tribes
as foolish people or less wise and themselves
wiser. They always want to outsmart you.
Also, criminality is another major problem of
the igbos. Always in a bid and haste to
succeed and their love for money, they can
almost do anything at all no matter how
wicked it may be to make money, drug
dealing, armed robbery, baby factory, 419,
production of fake goods e.t.c. Igbos are not
also liberal givers, quite stingy & greedy.

YORUBA
The loveable things about yorubas is firstly
their very respectful nature. Disrespect
towards elders is not tolerated in anyway
amongst them. A yoruba can see you and
greet you ten times a day bending down.
Yorubas are very very peaceful in nature and
not troublemakers.
A yoruba man loves to be enlightened and
believes so much in education and
enlightenment. They are a very neutral people
especially when it comes to religion.
Religious sentiment is the last thing you can
ever try to use to deceive a yoruba man. They
dont care who is a.muslim or who is a
christian, they believe so much in religious
oneness and unity to the end. That is why you
can find a yoruba family with adherents of
islam, christianity & traditional religion, i have
even seen a yoruba man who claims he is a
practitioner of all 3 religions.
Yorubas are very social and fun to be with,
hence their crazy love for partying and
clubbing.
The bad side of yorubas is their attitude of
tribalism. They so much love their culture and
tradition to the end and sometimes take it too
far when dealing with others.
The yoruba man is also just like a chameleon,
never stable in behaviour, a hypocrite, you can
never predict which colour he will be
tomorrow. You can never really trust a yoruba
man because he is a backstabber and
betrayer, both of u may agree something here
and he will go behind your back to say a
different thing. A yoruba man also has a
typical cowardly attitude, anything happens
they will be the first to run away despite their
plenty talk. They talk too much and do little
action. They are very good in insulting and
running their mouths.
A yoruba man is also a very big critic.
Criticizes everything. They are also very big
pretenders, they can see you and fall at your
feet worshipping you with their greetings, only
if u know what they are doing to you at your
back. Yoruba people are also very very dirty
people, no doubt.
Lastly they believe so much in diabolical and
traditional powers, charms, native doctors
(babalawo) and juju medicine, this is why
there are so many human parts factories in
the land for human rituals.
Anyone that thinks it's a lie, watch any yoruba
movie starting to ending and if you dont see
babalawo involved, then know that all i am
writing here is untrue trash.
However, in all these cases, there are people
who will always have exceptional characters.
So it is not applicable to 100% of the people,
but however majority.
Any middlebelter who has lived amongst these
3 majority groups can always attest to this,
sentiments aside.
Someone from Kogi said, the 3 major Nigerian
groups are our 3 major problems in this
country. I partly agree with that and at the
same time partly disagree because the 3
major Nigerian groups have also been
blessings to Nigeria one way or the other in
different ways, just that in summary always,
they will always have good & bad sides as
almost all things have their unique
advantages and disadvantages.

I come from probably the one single tribe that can disagree with all of that, I have never ever heard of someone from my tribe getting married to an Igbo. Heck why should he? Maybe it's because you blokes over there have low standards.

Lol! Do you know that it has been scientifically proven that your people are homo erectus'? No wonder you're the standard for everything people characterize as "nigga features". Like I said, I don't really want to brag about how we don't have manky plug ugly faces like yours over here. And by the way Trollop, that's not how you use a hash tag.

Yoruba women are Ugly....
Out of the 200+ ethnic groups in Nigeria...
In terms of Beauty, Fulani comes first.
Igbos comes second...
Hausa and Yorubas are not among the top 150....

Lol! And your point is? That is if I am to accept igbos as number 2. Besides, the ugliest hausa woman will always be better looking than the prettiest igbo woman, that's a fact!

Sorry to disappoint you mate, but I'm not yoruba, let me tell you something we here in the north accept. Even though we have more beautiful women, your women, ignoring their manly features have a better shape, its just a compensation for their face. That's why your people emphasize on that, while we emphasize on the face, shape of the nose and other facial features. Your women are also sexually promiscous, again! That is just over compensation for their face. A northern woman without makeup will always be prettier than an igbo woman with all her fake hair and all the make up in the world. That's just the fact, the only thing that's separates your looks from the yorubas you despise so much is that due to your favourable climate, you tend to have lighter women in some instances, but scientifically, and you can confirm this anywhere, the yorubas are the closest to you in terms of dna.

Forget makeup...
Take a look at Igbo children....


You can't compare Hausa with Fulani....
I'm talking of being well fed... Some Fulani looks shaby and un-fed....
I'm refering to the Healthy ones, not the normadic ones living in the bush...
I give it to them for a reason best known to me and everyother persons....
Hausa case is different. They are the most darkest negro in Naija....

Hausas are the most racially diverse group in africa. I think the problem is you call every tribe from the north hausas, I a hausa man myself am not dark by any definition. No one from my family is, all the true hausa people I know are not. And even the dark ones are still beautiful but like I said, not every tribe from the north are hausas. Your stereotypes are always wrong.
