chiogo:I was going to say that. . . dang. Anyway, # 3 is the only one that I had an issue with. I wouldn't know about the rest though, but I can say that it sounds like a stretch to me. Reason being that if I'm not mistaking, the extent of use of Yoruba language is more concentrated in and around Yoruba regions. Likewise, the extent and use of Igbo is more concentrated around Igbo regions, and the same for Hausa. So, to me, it sounds more appropriate to say that Yoruba is the most influential in a certain region, and that's expected. |

Yoruba is influential in the WEST. Igbo is in the East. Hausa is in the North. Its simply regional. Don't over stretch it okay. LOL @ Osisi and Titilayo LOL I will be Oluwatosin. |

citizenY: Oh please, You all cannot censor me, if you do not like it, don't comment, ignore the thread, I have thrown the question out there, you're an intellectual midget which is why the premise and the subsequent disagreement is too hard for you to comprehend, so fall back young one. P.s. thanks to the people that actually read and understood the question. |

You are the intellectual midget. You have stepped down anyway. Bigotry is intellectual prowess in your books and we are saying no. |

Na before, we know your pranks. You always sneak this type of discussion into decent fora. Within a short time, you pollute them and prevent meaningful discussion. Over and out. |

@afrocynic. Like I said before and I will repeat. You're a bored, lonely,miserable wind-up and a trouble-stirer. FYI Im not yoruba,igbo ,hausa ,tiv,ijaw,fulani or kanuri. IM NIGERIAN Tribalism is clearly nigeria's biggest killer, and here you are out of boredom and loneliness starting up a tribalistic thread. IF U ARE THAT BORED, GO GET A SACK OF RICE, SIT DOWN AND COUNT THE GRAINS, WHEN YOU'R DONE YOU CAN START ALL OVER AGAIN Its best for you to keep mute, than to start ludicruos and sarcastic threads. |

german007: And you, my friend, clearly cannot read. I will not insult, because I do not believe in picking on the mentally impaired, but I will tell you to engage your energy in a more worthwhile cause since your plan to intimidate me has clearly backfired. Thank you so much! |

Whatever u are is what u are so remain PROUDLY Yoruba, Igbo, Ibibio, Bassa, Nupe, Isoko, Ijaw, Hausa, Kanuri, Bini, etc as long as u are not trampling on ppl's rights or subjugating others. We are from different nations forced to be in 1. God made u who u are not Lord Lugard. |
