Your moniker says it all. You such a waste of spermatozoa. All these things mentioned, what has it brought to your people and Nigeria in general? These names and businesses doesn't change the price of fish in the market. Mtcheew

The title would have just been, "why yorubas are the greatest in Nigeria and Africa.

There's no point mentioning Igbo.

When I become President, people like you will be relegated, because I wouldn't want any agent of division in my territory

History is very important in our lives today cause when we remember them, it challenges us to work harder to make this nation proud.. Pls u don't need to abuse the op or anybody, but just represent ur own tribe too. I believe we are all special and unique in our own ways.
Thanks

Op, its very obvious you are afriad of the Igbos. Why must you compare them with yours. This write-up shows that you are intimidated in your own land.

I'm not abusing anyone or any tribe. I'm just saying the facts. He shouldn't be tribalistic. He shouldn't say his tribe is better than the other. It shows that he's intimiidated. Every tribe in Naija has well established and important people in the society.

next time, when seeking attention, choose your words nicely.

If Igbos are not great, Nigerians would have happily allowed the Igbos go.
The only reason Igbos are not allowed to peacefully go is because their absence will bring poverty to some people and regions in Nigeria.

that's true, am also a yoruba man but I don't like tribalism for any reason. When ever anyone hit at my tribe with the aim of spoiling it or criticising it, I just look at the person and shake my head..
We look for ways to promote unity because we need it most now..

biafra is a pipe dream that will never happen. talk about your achievements here or close up

Nigeria can only be better only if tribalism is dealt with completely of which am not seeing it happening soon.
The so called "leaders of tomorrow" have already showed us that they are not fit to rule this nation in equity and fairness but chose to use every opportunity to get back at any tribe they hate but they will still be blaming the government for the mass corruption in the country with paying attention to their own contribution through their uncivilised comment and lack of understanding.

SMH for this generation

This is quite disturbing
How does it concern a Yoruba man that an Igbo man beats his chest Even the Bini lying to the West of Igboland don't give a hoot about what the Igbo does so I wonder how it concerns the Yoruba what the Igbo who are not even their neighbors do

Only if there's another life I'll like to be a YORUBA pikin

Without the Igbos , poverty will be written boldly on their faces. That's why they see Igbos as a threat
