Proudly Onye Igbo. by rheether(f): 6:17pm On May 04, 2015
Yorubas Are Jealous of Ndi-Igbo because we
are more successful and build Mansions on
their Lands.
"Typically, an Igbo comes to a place like Lagos
for example with an almost empty bag. He
starts with a kind of menial job. After some
time, he puts a kiosk somewhere, and in not
too long a time, he builds a mansion and stays
in front of his mansion exuding apparently
more confidence than the original owners of
the land. What do you think the original owners
of the land will do? How would they feel? They
will feel resentment. I tell my people, ‘look
they are not resenting you, but they are
comparing you with themselves. They get
annoyed with you and start being jealous of
you. If in addition to your success, you talk
about your achievements with pride, like a
typical Anambra man will do, that will make the
host community even more resentful and
jealous"

well, you are not wrong.
Think of it as karma's way of compensating you for the loss of more than two million of your people in the civil war.
Enjoy it while it lasts. smiley
