I have followed the politics thread of NL for sometime now and ofcourse no boring moments, trust me I put up some of their recent achievements. I leave you to add yours and judge which is cat and which is rat. 1. A Yoruba woman made deputy sheriff in a US city and three Ibo made Judge, Prosecutor and Deputy Mayor in New Jersey. 2. Yoruba language introduced as a pre requisite for crime and law enforcement, 3 Ibos made assembly members in Uk. Add yours. |

People like the OP is the reason why Donald Trump is getting so hard on Nigerians. The fact still remain that both the Yoruba and Igbo man appointed in US are from a country that import everything including toothpick. Just recently Nigeria Army received dozens of wasted armoured tanks from the US army, I was so ashamed of my country. Do they think Nigeria is a dump site for scraps?. Where are the so called engineers? You graduate from school and have nothing to show for it. I laugh when I see some engineering student boost about their course. Shame to all engineers reading this post, you all have nothing to offer to Nigeria. **NB** All Nigeria engineers should stop visiting NAIRALAND. They can't think of anything positive after studying MACHINES, FLUID MECHANICS etc. I dey ves.. Mallam Seif al Din 14 Likes |

The Igbo man has always loved to compare himself to a Yoruba standard, while Yorubas just keep on setting standards for the rest of Africa. Talk about catching up? Yorubas became lawyers, Igbos are now lawyers too. Yorubas became doctors, Igbos are now doctors too Yorubas became engineers, Igbos are now engineers too. Yorubas became bankers, Igbos are now bankers too. Yorubas became judges in UK and USA, An Igbo man has finally become a Judge too in the USA. Soyinka became 1st African Nobel Laureate, Igbos say it is irrelevant, once an Igbo gets awarded it would become mighty relevant. This is what Achebe termed as the East catching up with the West. The West remains a reference to development globally. East Germany trying to measure up to West Germany before the unification. Western Europe trying to pull Eastern Europe out of the 3rd world. Did a Yoruba man not recently become a key Obama staff? Deputy National Security Adviser? One day, God willing, the Igbos will catch up in this regard too. OP, should I playback the piece that FFK once wrote about the Igbos before you gave him your sister so he could hush up? 47 Likes 2 Shares |

You think Igbos are your mate? Comparing Igbos to yorubas is foolishness. It's akin to comparing Germany(Igbo) to Malta(Yoruba). Dr. Thomas Sowell, renowned American philosopher in one of his books recognized four highly gifted races/ethnicities across the world: The Jews, Germans, Japanese and Igbos. Did he mention yoruba? No...he didn't because they are simply not known. Even when the colonial whites arrived Nigeria eons ago, they made it very clear that the Igbos behaved essentially like whites while yorubas were literally savages and barbarous in their way of life. I'M NOT MAKNG THESE UP....THESE ARE WELL DOCUMENTED FACTS. After reading below, say thank you to the great Igbo race. Yoruba are still learners...read below. Their lies have been shattered! http://www.newsexpressngr.com/news/detail.php?news=2547 37 Likes 7 Shares |

I bet he was magnanimous enough to teach him how to speak and write English.
