Nwakaumu:
Yoruba are cowards.
:::--- Banjo fought on Biafra side despite being a yoruba man. Remember what Benjamin Adekunle did to your folks. Do not forget that your president abandonned ship and ran to ivory coast. Who can you now deduce that showed act of Cowardice? Never forget that Awo was bold enough to use food as a strategic weapon to bring biafra to its kneels. The moral from the history above is that chest beating does not translate to boldness and being strategic in planning and shrewed in executing them with precision neither mean weakness nor cowardice.

Its kind of sad their existence has been,currently is and will always be driven by the hate of the Igbos rather than love of their own tribe...we've damaged them that much..

Aahhh eeya. E dey pain u abi. Pele i understand. This simply shows that u are one of the illiterates. I am referring to.

But you have to admit una dirty die. Only a yoruba you will pass and u will almost die of armpit odour. Only a yoruba person will eat food right in front of her child pooing on a paper. Una dirty die.
Your women another story. Only in yoruba a small girl of 17 will carry belle and everyone seems to be ok with it and wen they are tired of their so called marriage at a later age..... Owambe is the next thing to start fvckin a new alhaji.

And lastly one more blow below the belt. Dont try to agree in secret with a yoruba o. They go sell you immediately they see small wahala. They go deny u die.

***P. S THIS IS ONLY THE UNEDUCATED YORUBAS like u. The ones wey go school dey get sense
That one na lie.Tell me any Yoruba land that is as dirty as Igboland. Mention them make we see.
Yoruba women no flirt reach Igbo women. The number of Igbo women that are into prostitution is 10 times that of Yoruba women. You talked about Yoruba girls becoming pregnant at 17, that one is usual for Igbo women too. just that una go sell the children to big madam to feed. Baby factory things na him Igbo do pass.
Na Igbo women fuucck pass no be lie.

They are the most generous

Btw: About culture... I don't think their culture is any better than Igbo or Hausa culture, what they have in advantage is the media.. That way they are able to project their culture better than any other tribe

To all my Igbo brothers that have been brainwashed into thinking they are Jews can't you see that Yorubas also name their child on the 8th day like Igbos? They probably also circumsice like Igbos too.

"Most educated" lol. Continue deluding yourself. Igbos set the pace in education these days. You think this is 1950's?
lol, I laugh at you for laughing, dude try to research, Yoruba's are far above Igbo's in terms of education, its not even a debatable fact.

give it up for the best tribe in Nigeria in terms of culture and traditions.
Yoruba people don't sweat it, being successful is our thing, we are just too good.
no sentiments.

Best tribe when it comes to culture and tradition? I dont agree with such. You cant have the best culture and traditions and yet relegate your traditional clothing to ceremonies alone. When it comes to culture and tradition, we Hausas beat you to it.

If not, its wrong to adopt the appellation for yourself as a Non Ilorin Yoruba. You don't have to join those with no history in truncating ours

God bless you sir, but I think he is just trying to tell the Osus that calling Yorubas Afonja is a waste of time, meanwhile they find it difficult to refers to themselves as Osu because they know it's a terrible appellation

Aptly put bro. You couldn't have described them better. Their noisiness, nosiness, tendency to betray and natural insecurity irritates the hell out of me.

I moved to ibadan in 2014 after I was offered job in one of the discos. Afterwards, I began to believe that God wanted to punish me that was why he sent me there.

Finally, all yorubas act the same. Be it pastors, imams, elite or commoner



You ve forced me to give an example. I live in an estate at gowon. I ve a close friend who has been disturbing me to introduce him to my nebor who imports accidental cars. Due to his pressure I brought both together and he invested money to buy a pilot is a Honda suv. The car suffered delays that lasted like 5months. I was worried and I decided to confront my nebor to ask why all the delays? But the buyer cautioned me that I should leave him to handle it cos he sensed I was angry. Suddenly the car landed and everything fixed . On the very day I brought customer to pay for the car the only was telling the buyer that he will fixed everything including scanned code report. As a friend I told him that I ve never witness were someone ve to repair everything in a tokunbo car b4 selling. Infact he got angry an insulted me b4 the buyer whom I brought. The buyer called me sabor a name for a traitor. We sold the car and I now decided to confront him on his behaviour to me in front of the buyer. I was not satisfied with his attitude so I decided to report him to my nebor who is helping him to buy his car. Instead of him to address the issue I raised he went ahead to tell us that if he has to say all that I said when the pilot is still not in Nigeria, that he'll will let loose. I told him to say it so that everyone will know. The question if I kept quiet he would ve told the whole world I linked him to a 419. Even my nebor was asking me to be careful of him.

tete7000:


Yoruba are not cowards, we don't just fight senseless war. We used our brain more than our physique. We don't fight from a position of weakness. It is stupid to fight a war you don't stand a chance to win. Listen to master Jesus himself corroborate that:

If one of you is planning to build a tower, you sit down first and figure out what it will cost, to see if you have enough money to finish the job. 29 If you don't, you will not be able to finish the tower after laying the foundation; and all who see what happened will make fun of you. 30 ‘You began to build but can't finish the job!’ they will say. 31 If a king goes out with ten thousand men to fight another king who comes against him with twenty thousand men, he will sit down first and decide if he is strong enough to face that other king. 32 If he isn't, he will send messengers to meet the other king to ask for terms of peace while he is still a long way off. (Luke14:28-32)

You can also read the "Art of war'' to gain deeper understanding on the subject.

Don't raise a troop when diplomacy can win you a war.
With your diplomacy you lost your ancestral land in ilorin to hausa-fulani; with your diplomacy you lost your ancenstral land in offa; with your diplomcy you lost your land in kabba; with your diplomacy,dahomean women warriors chased your fore fathers all the way from modern togo down to abeokuta while slaughtering them like animal.Coward,keep deceiving yourself with white man's text book.cowards always have already made excuses to justify his cowardice.yoruba are cowards,period.
