basilo101: Another trait of the ibo: repition of unfounded tosh based off of emotional tantrums passed on by generations. I'm unmoved. It is only a mentally slow person who would wait to be told of the level of polygamy in the North and its resultant effect which was witnessed in the last election before they can fall back and not debate Hausa population Versus that of ibo whose total votes from SE states were trumped by just 1 state in the North. I wonder how you guys are wired to be blind to facts but run with emotional conjectures. 7 Likes |

teeowl: That is not a verifiable statement. A great part of the north is sparsely populated, with the core North's population concentrated at only certain places in the North, and in many of those concentrated areas of the North you would find people of Igbo extraction as second in population to the natives. In the entire south-east and almost 50% of south-south or Niger Delta (excluding Abia and Imo), you find Igbo-speaking peoples and in most other non-Igbo states in Nigeria, such as Lagos, Oyo, Kano, Kaduna, Abuja etc., you find the population of Igbo peoples being next in number to the population of the natives. What should that tell you? Something is just not right about the so-called census of Nigeria. 3 Likes |

postmann: True Talk bro.. Hausa are less than 14million if a true Census is carried out.. I think Igbo is the largest ethnic Group in Nigeria Followed by Yoruba.. In Every State In Nigeria Igbo Constitute about 20%-30% Of that state Population ... Wat your take on This ? 3 Likes |
