palsenator: Kachikwu Ibe is Igbo and a Lagosian ( He said it NOT me). If you like rant and rave till Kingdom come on NL, you convince no one. Just make sure that you pay your rent at the end of the month, probably to an Igbo millionaire Lagos land owner. So you can continue hating Igbos because they are economically successful all you want ( na your choice be dat) but you must continue paying rent ( not your choice). ALL GOOD Brother. 3 Likes |

safarigirl:if you go arround saying u r Akurite, Lagosian, Abeokuta, Ife e.t.c u r saying u have assimilated yoruba culture. ..is a simple logic. Lagos has nothing to do with igbo and other non indigenous tribes, is either they' ve come to work, do business and return back to their native land or wait in lagos to become yorubas along with their children. 6 Likes |

If I hear any Yoruba saying he is more Igbo than his tribe I will vomit and ask him to shut up, .... After spending 25 yrs in Lagos I left Lagos to Portharcourt 10 yrs ago but I still Tell ppl I was a Lagosian because Lagos is not a name of a Tribe bot a place of resident.....being a lagosian does not mean your are yoruba......Now I see that Yorubas are possessed by anything Igbo. I wouldnt want any Yoruba man to tell me he is Igbo , taaa who dash you, likewise no Igbo man want to be yoruba.... we are too refined to be you 5 Likes 2 Shares |

RickyTan:o Igbo and hopeless consolation. As far as Lagos is concerned, you are a foreigner and a foreigner you shall remain. The yoruba indegenes you are mocking will sooner or later take your property over. Just keep praying for peace and stability. Kachikwu, abi wetin be your papa name, is a joker. Lagosian my foot, he had better go and find his roots. Igbo lasan!!! 4 Likes |

One cannot help but shudder at the stupid ignorance of a lot of Nigerians. How can one be more of a Lagosian than Igbo when the latter is an ethnic group while the former is a state of being a Lagos resident. The correct thing to say would be that he is an Igbo living in Lagos. 1 Like |

Drchristian:I was replying the guy who said Don Jazzy is Igbo because he was born in Abia My post had nothing to do with who is Lagosian or whatever terms you guys attribute to being Yoruba. I'm sure the Kachikwu fellow, like most immigrant 'Lagosians' can't speak a word of Yoruba anyway. Maybe if he changed his name to Lanre or so, we could have this argument. 1 Like |

safarigirl:It made more sense when Clarion Chukwura said that her first language is Yoruba instead of Igbo. As much as it kinda pissed me off, it made more sense since she has lived a Yoruba life most of her life and consistently married different Yoruba men. But I just dont just understand this our ministers own because even my mum who was born in Lagos is still her Igbo self and does not speak a lick of Igbo like millions of other Igbos in Lagos. |

bakynes: Will you yoloba shut the Bleep and go back to school. The outfit yoloba call a traditional attire is a DIRECT COPIED of the SUDANO-SAHELIAN groups of Africa. None of what yorubas wear today came from yoruba excluding THE hat. You actually have no traditional attire We've already argued that on this page https://www.nairaland.com/807895/yoruba-igbo-acculturation-multiculture Some even provided direct books and links which stated so. The SUDANO sahelian outfit in which yoriba wear today and call "yoruba traditional attire" was passed around west Africa hence most west African male outfit are similar. The yoruba learned that outfit from Hausa who pick it up from tuareg who picked up from nubians who were the original creator. The ONLY thing yoruba has claim to when it comes to that attire is that weird ugly floppy hat. 1 Like |

Cosbyrich: Neither do yoruba do wtf you talking about. Everything yoruba were today was copied from SUDANO-SAHELIAN tribes of North Africa. Putting a floppy hat on a traditional tuareg, etc outfit dpes not make it your own traditional attire. Everything yoruba wear is either from Arabs or whites so before opening mouth talking about "you don't give what you don't have". Look in the mirror first of all" 2 Likes |

For those of you niggas, as well as the illiterate yolobas on here shouting Igbo copied our swag.... the outfit in which you fools are claiming as your own came out from the sudano-sahelian of North Africa. It migrated down to West Africa through the Fulani community. The hausa picked it up from Fulani and the Bini and yoloba picked it up from Hausa. Infact, the igbos picked the outfit up from BINI, not Yoruba as it there are pre colonial pictures of Igbo males wearing bubu. The first ever introduction of Igbo and yoloba were during Nigeria creation. Infact the Igbo ancestors avoided yoloba like a plague (I actually don't blame them. I'm pissed Zik didn't follow that foot step) therefore, the picked up from the community who engaged hausa in trade they interacted at that time aka BINI This article is about the Grand Boubou and its variations. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boubou_(clothing) More links regarding its origin Here's some reading material for your leisure time: http://www.adireafricantextiles.com/agbadainfo.htm http://findarticles.com/p/articles/mi_m0438/is_2_35/ai_94010397/ http://www.bakareweate.com/texts/the%20agbada.pdf http://books.google.com/books?id=zmKZ7-y4Q3gC&pg=PA100&dq=agbada+clothing&hl=en&ei=zAm6TpWXKMvAtgeezJWqBw&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=7&ved=0CFIQ6AEwBg#v=onepage&q=agbada%20clothing&f=false http://books.google.com/books?id=r_pUDOWOB7MC&pg=PT64&dq=agbada+clothing&hl=en&ei=zAm6TpWXKMvAtgeezJWqBw&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=8&ved=0CFcQ6AEwBw#v=onepage&q=agbada%20clothing&f=false http://books.google.com/books?id=Q_lCFcabj0MC&pg=PA59&dq=agbada+clothing&hl=en&ei=Qwq6Ts2nJcGTtwfi342iBw&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=2&ved=0CDcQ6AEwATgK#v=onepage&q=agbada%20clothing&f=false http://books.google.com/books?id=1u4EAQAAIAAJ&q=agbada+clothing&dq=agbada+clothing&hl=en&ei=Qwq6Ts2nJcGTtwfi342iBw&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=5&ved=0CEYQ6AEwBDgK 1 Like 1 Share |
