It is because of this.

Infact, i truly believe the collective Igbo IQ would certainly be higher than the Nigerian national average or any average IQ collation for any other Nigerian ethnic or Even africa as a continent.

grin

Liepod and lies. This ibo made, aba made stuff has been trashed on NL.

First and foremost you link is fake, broken and irrelevant. Go ahead and open it let's see grin


Mind you,

that article was written by Chanda Chisala before it was posted on UNZ. NewTelegraph the chitgbo website it and quickly changed the title to "Igbos most intelligent African tribe"


Point two :


Here is how liepod/ipod link was busted having realised ibos can reconfigure things to massage their ego. Infact, below is the original link to the so called stats wink


http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/science/science-news/9755929/IQ-tests-do-not-reflect-intelligence.html

You can open it abeg grin

And I quote from the link :

IQ tests 'do not reflect intelligence'
IQ tests are misleading because they do not accurately reflect intelligence, according to a study which found that a minimum of three different exams are needed to measure someone's brainpower.


And please don't tell me I am jealous cos I have just provided facts.

But just incase you are actually talking about(with facts) the IQ, then this should help. Give It up for yorubas grin

And again wink

Yorubas Are The Most Achieved And Most Successful Black People In The World.

http://www.unz.com/article/the-iq-gap-is-no-longer-a-black-and-white-issue/

yeah, okay we agree that IQ test is not a measure of intelligence but at least it I'd proven that Igbo's have higher IQ than any other black race including Yoruba's then whether that is a measure of intelligence is a talk for another day. so Mr Yoruba just bear in mind that the average Igbo IQ is greater than the Yoruba IQ

Fighting for one's right to self determination is not dumb, but doing it in the manner the Igbos are is most certainly dumb. Nnamdi Kanu is an apt case study
Re: Why Are Igbos So Blunt About Nigeria's And Africa's Situation by Litmus: 12:38pm On Feb 25, 2017
Most Nigerians are blunt. Wherever it originated (perhaps from the Igbos, I don't know) being straightforward has become one of Nigeria's national characteristic. I find sneakiness abhorrent, most Africa nationals I've met so far, apart from Nigerians, are sneaky. Simple but true.

You can say that again. That's why Igbos told Nigerians that Buhari will be no good, but as usual the maddening crowd drowns everybody out.

gartamanta:
Of three main ethnic groups in Nigeria, Igbos were the only ones who never had an empire. Pre-historic Nigeria, Igbos, as large as they were as an ethnic group, never tried to conquar the smaller ethnic groups around them.

Igbos are a confederate people, bound by ideology, tradition and language but fiercly indepedent. No traditional ruler can ever claim sovereignty over Igbos like the Alafin of Oyo can over Yorubas or the Sultan of Sokoto can over Hausa/Fulani.

Igbos are confederates, that is the only reason they could unite under Ojukwu to fight a war of independence but cant unite any other Igbo that seeks a 'unitary Nigeria'.

Had Ojukwu won the Biafran war and established Biafra, there would have been a 'given period' for him to tranform from a military dictator to 'confederate leader' with powers devolved to the people, or Igbos and the minorities that make up Biafra would risen up against him too.
You r blessed
