There is a recently trending fad all over nairaland now that the ibos use in consoling themselves that Yorubas don't go out of their enclave in the southwest and as such, are less exposed. I usually reel out in laughter at their folly. Yorubas dont usually do interstate because we believe our region to be better than any other in Nigeria unlike some people that sees the southwest especially Lagos as their own London.

To give a few instances, there are lot of countries in south America where Yoruba culture and Language are most prominent, heck they even celebrate our festivals and revere our kings like the alaafin of Oyo for instance. What about benin republic, togo, ghana, south africa etc. In Benin republic for instance, you will find large communities of Yoruba speakers both of indegenous origins and those from Nigeria too. Even their president is of Yoruba descent. Even spain, all the way in Europe isn't left out.

Don't even let me talk about the UK scenario. Now law enforcement in Uk are trying to employ Yoruba speaking individuals in Uk cos of the sheer magnitude of Yoruba immigrants in the country. We are found everywhere all over the world and we live all over as prominent citizens respective of our hosts and we go about it quietly without chest beating.

This are just few mentions just from my observations and not even a comprehensive analysis.

Yorubas dont usually do interstate because we believe our region to be better than any other in Nigeria unlike some people

Yorubas don't do interstate yet the biggest Yoruba ediot (Demdem) on Nairaland resides in Port-Harcourt.
Demdem how market?

Boy, there are more igbos than Yorubas in UK and U.S. Say what u know

I just don't gerrit....why do the flat.heads expect Yorubas to travel SE.....what's my business there.... .....to experience erosion....baby factories.....fake drugs....kidnapping.....etc....I mean they themselves run out of the place like they are being chased by some evil spirit......but want us to go to that same place they are running from....these people are truly crazy.....

lol...bare faced lie Even your brothers will deny you on this one. If you had mentioned china now where you import fake goods or all those asian countries like malaysia or indonesia where you carry hard drugs to, I might have been inclined to give it a thought

Yoruba!!!! as usual you must try and propagate your stupiid selves again, have you not heard about the saying that goes........ Any where you go and you did not see an igbo man then know the place is uninhabitable? We do interstate, we go international, so stop chasing the wind and chase your dream........... Igbos are better and will always be better than you folks forever

Lol. Wey the data wey you take arrive at that fallacy that igbos are more than Yorubas in the U.K ? You high or something? Peckham na Yoruba colony and you dey here dey talk out of your anus. Shey na for LA, NY, Maryland/D.C/Virginia tristate area, abi for Houston, Chicago and ATL igbos plenty pass Yorubas in the U.S? The only parts of the world where there are more igbos than Yorubas are China, Indonesia, Gabon, and maybe Thailand. And we know that's thanks to the drug trade you all dominate.

The SE is only attractive to folks who intend to trade coz the only thing you all can boast of over there is having the biggest markets for trading. Alas, we all can't be traders.

Honestly speaking I think u r frustrated & jobless. U r consumed with hate, envy & jealousy. Your mates r out there making moni & u r here fighting Yoruba/Ibo war. Experience has taught me dat tribalist trouble makers r usually touts, jobless people and people with no confidence / low self esteem. I'm sure u know yr category.

U r here boasting abt d achievement of others. Wot abt yr own? R u d 1 travelling 2 d US/UK? Can't u c dat u r deluded? 4 d record I'm not Ibo but I think u hv a problem. Better change yr orientation or u wud b left behind.

It is pure fact! If not, give me your own conjectures that suggest otherwise like mine and not what one demdem says. You get it? Try to compose your posts and arguments like a literate fellow, except if am wrong about that of course

but at the end what do you achieved by staying on your prosperous land? In that same fruitful land of yours You pay rent to papa emeka, you go to the market and still beg ugochukwu to sale for a cheaper rate to you, you beg odinaka to help offload the goods in his container to a warehouse, my question is this, why is it that someone chased by whatever from his erosion village still comes to your dubai states and make you his servant?? its laziness, yes laziness.

not to be disrespectful to your. Tribe but the country in south america you are talking about is brazil.....the yorubas there were there as a result of slave trade not necessarily because the yorubas travel a lot.......I think the UK and ireland are the countries were the yorubas have a sizeable population compared to the igbos.....in SA, igbos are more,togo,cameroun,angola,ghana igbos are more than the yorubas........in the US, I doubt if the yourubas are more because texas has a very huge population of igbos.......igbos are in germany,china,taiwan,malaysia.....back in the days, igbos were headed in the direction of holland and belgium but I doubt if they still go there en mass.....they prefer asia particularly for business cause of cheap labour and production.......these are the ones I know.......maybe there are others.....but most importantly, igbos are the largest population second to the indigenous population of most states in Nigeria..........whether the yorubas feel theirs is the best is not the issue, but to the fact that right before the war and even after, igbos have always been people who move a lot...... Least I forget, igbos have a sizeable population in israel........I know a couple of dudes there.......I know the igbos brag which I see nothing wrong with that might be excessive at times, but when they say they travel more than the yorubas, its not about chest beating, its about facts....am not a tribal dude. And I don't need any insult. Just stated the obvious.....but if you as a yoruba person disapproves, we could start with Nigeria. From the first to the last states then when through, we go and check african states if not enough then we go international...........

Olofo ni bobo yen mehn. Talking about Igbos more than Yorubas in U.k and U.S, like say those two countries je gege bi China. Even British Police sef acknowledge Yorubas by recruiting Yoruba-speaking bobbies/police

They don't travel indeed but we know the people who are defacing the roads of Abuja and port Harcourt with rickety scraps in the name of taxi driving or how about the fake automechanics who litre Abuja and other northern states where they fool ignorant car owners in the name of repair and service of cars.

How about the never do well tailors and concoctions sellers who walk the length and breadth of Nigeria selling their herbal products and tailoring services.

Which Yoruba colony in Peckham? Peckham that my cousin has landed properties. Dominated by igbos and Jamaicans. So also Tottenham. So also Brixton. Boy, you shouldknow who you tell those tales by moonlight, not widely travelled person like me

The only continent igbos dominate is asia and we all know the reason why they re all trooping there..
Yorubas, owns 80% of african investement in Uk,ireland,Usa,germany .
Hardly you will see an igbo man establishing business in this countries because their business cannot survive in countries where law and orders re strict

Don't mind those cowards. Do u know that during June 12 crisis in minna, taxi drivers went on strike, because 98% taxi drivers were Yorubas. And they are here telling me international

your region is best and every data keep showing us that south east is ahead of you in MDG? ignorance,wishful thinking,naivety is now a way of life to yoloba people

Guy, at least those folks are making a decent and honest living, compared to your almajiri kinsmen who deal in life-threatening fake drugs (even Dora Akunyili wasn't spared) and Alomo bitters , fake cables burning up countless homes, fake spare parts that are costing Nigerian car owners billions in unnecessary expenses.

I believe if the Igbos are to trace their true origins, they will have some links with china and not the Jews like they all like to admit

Lol. Na only for im mind Igbos plenty pass Yorubas in the U.S., and even Canada sef. Na places like China, Thailand and Indonesia Igbos prefer to go.

Apart from UK, I don't think any other Nigerian tribe has more population outside Nigeria than Igbos.
