oh well..I guess the ish with TonyChristopher? the guy is a Clown! ..we were just taking swipes at each other..not necessarily bashing Igbos

To be honest, I think his posts were in response to some of your comments on the first page which many would perceive as Igbo bashing. Some people were already beginning to ask if the thread was created to bash Igbos or to actually learn about the Igbo culture as you had mentioned.

...nah,the original post was more to understand from the igboman perspective the idea of marrying or as the case may be,the choice not to marry non igbo- if it is a cultural thing...alas, some people instead of understanding the import of the thread just opted to throw punches..I merely paid them in their coin...it was meant to be an intellectual discuss

Below is your very post that would make any reader think that you created this thread to bash the Igbos, and what started the series of back and forth messages between you Tony.

BlaqCoffee109:
I am Yoruba by tribe,also very much aligned with my Itsekiri ancestry maternally...the bottom line is Igbo's are tribal bigots

And below was his response:

tonychristopher:

Is this thread for bashing Igbo


Marriage no be by force na

Why must everybody want to marry Igbo na

Why lamenting

Our women are just OK for us ..is that a crime ?

Why don't you find pleasure in your own women ?


Why run away from them ?



You started the tirade and playing the victim now doesn't change the fact. I would just say be careful in choosing the best words that portray every inch of your intentions to avoid being misunderstood.
Re: Igbo Men And Inter- Tribal Marriage by tpiander: 6:11pm On Oct 07, 2015
I am really less bothered about these kinds of things.

I find it rather weird how people do take offence at folks' dating practices, as in, if some people say they cant/wont marry from somewhere.


It just doesn't bother me, and God willing, it will never bother me.

For example, if Igbo men say they cant date Yoruba, I am just not concerned.

is this a wrong attitude?

same applies to any other place, for me.

Whether you are aware of it or not, many inter-tribal relationships have died an untimely death because of the tribal differences between the couple. Parents, elders, and friends have rained down fire and brimstone to see to it that this sacrilegious union does not get to the altar. The strong couples come out of it beaten, bruised, but alive nonetheless. The weaker ones — well, they inspire me to write this.

The most popular union seems to be the one between the Igbos and the Yorubas. With this in mind, I have compiled a list, specially for everyone who is currently in such a relationship. If you have been pressured into breaking up because of tribal differences and you have no idea why you should – or if you should, then I am here to help you make that decision. Please read, digest, and understand the lists below.

Reasons Igbos Should NOT Marry Yorubas:

1. They’re dirty.

2. All they know how to do is party.

3. They eat too much oil.

4. Their women flirt/sleep around too much.

5. Their men will ALWAYS cheat with a Yoruba woman.

6. They are loud and obnoxious. You can hear them from a mile away.

7. They are wild. They are the real “Akata” people.

8. They are Nigeria’s problem.

9. They don’t understand the Igbo culture.

10. They do too much juju.

11. They betrayed the Igbos during the Biafran war.

12. And to top the list, they are not Igbo.

Reasons Yorubas Should NOT Marry Igbos:

1. They’re rude; they have no respect.

2. All they know how to do is chase money.

3. Their pounded yam is as hard as stone.

4. They don’t put enough oil and spice in their food.

5. Their in-laws are wicked! The husband’s family will always maltreat the woman.

6. They cannot speak Yoruba, and even if they can, they do not know our culture.

7. They will sell their brother for money which mean they have drive and we dont have this .

8. They won’t let us play our fuji music at home.

9. They’re Nigeria’s problem. They keep trying to divide us.

10. When their women die, their bodies have to be returned to Igbo Land to be buried.

11. They eat human beings presumed but soka forest changed this notion.

12. And the mother of all crimes, they are not Yoruba.

God forbid.

I cant imagine someone being told to hide his/her ancestry because they don't like her tribe?

That's a big put down, ko le to yen meaning why e go reach that level.

actually, even without the story, its just not something I consider feasible.

Big waste of time imo.

What do you mean? I was only pointing out to you that your action caused a reaction from Tony and you say i'm not objective for telling the truth? undecided

Maturity is a thing of the mind and carriage. It is possible that you barely even notice that you've derailed your very own thread you said you opened to learn more about the Igbo culture and it has become one of unnecessary exchange of words. Sometimes, we overlook certain things, not because we cannot handle our ego, but because the mind gets to a certain level in life when it sees certain actions as folly.
