The Analysis Of The Good And Bad Of The Three Major Tribes by Nobody: 8:58am On May 22, 2015
I am 460
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.

Wow very accurate and insightful. I have always thought in those lines but never able to articulate it so succinctly. Better Together, we can all learn and help each other.
