Nigerians abeg if you see people dress like this which music will you play for them to dance? grin



Notice the caption where Iboman lied and told the non-aware BBC reporter that this is Igbo. Can you imagine?

I like how they caption these pictures "Igbo Traditional" but dressed in Yoruba outfit and do not want to dance Pasuma.

Well, I wish I had known that this topic would come up for discussion. Maybe I would have made a video recording of an event I attended last week. I went to a traditional introduction party held for a Yoruba couple recently and guess what song the bride chose to herald her entry into the hall? It was a gospel song titled Igwe sung by Midnight Crew which was led by Pat Uwaje -King.

Igwe is an Igbo gospel track that is quite popular in a lot of churches today.
1 kilobyte of sense don't Igbo's play Yoruba music in wedding again ....we are talking about musical band groups

but why would a DJ with common sense be playing juju music in a crowd of igbo people? people should respect others for heavens sake. have u ever seen a yoruba gathering where osadebe is played? people should stop raising unnecessary dust




Dont mind the hypocrites making useless noise here....Will a yoruba wedding have Igbo music played at their wedding??...

Smh. Every tribe in Nigeria is tribalistic to some degree, but igbos are the biggest and most tribalistic in this country. Even amongst themselves. That is just the truth.



Common keep quiet....You yorubas are twice as tribalistic as Igbos...Lying and playing to the gallery appears to be your forte...Have you as a yoruba person ever attended your tribe's wedding where Igbo music was played?..mscheww

One thing you must unfortunately admit.is that the Yorubas are deeper and richer musically compared to the Igbos .

Moreover, the even narrated by the writer was not entirely igbo

The author is right. It is normal to expect Igbo songs at an igbo/igbo dominated event. Perhaps the MC was too brash in rejecting the band. He could have arranged for them to play a little of what they know and have the DJ play songs igbos would like to listen to. Everybody is happy. Tact and diplomacy are very crucial attributes to possess.

You can never ever use those two words in relation to iģbos.
Igbos dont posses those two remotely

Please shift with your comedy..Your juju music noise is 'richer and deeper'indeed...

Anyway i am not here for childish comparism..my point is that it is laughable that yorubas well known for their tribalistic nature in politics,offices,social gathering and even churches will accuse Igbos of being 'tribalistic'...Its a crime against humanity.

He mistook them for Yoruba because they had on Yoruba owambe attires. So he played a matching tune.

The moral of the story -
Stop dressing like Yoruba if you dont want to dance to Yoruba tunes.
So they dressed like Yoruba and are still tribalistic?

Igbo's are always on defensive when it come to issue of Nigeria... Each time you laugh at them they come out to defense before you completely humiliate them. That's the Truth. Let every Nigerian be.. I wish... I would have prefer the ceremony go on without the tribal drama. It a pity where we found ourselves.
I really love to travel to Kaduna, Kano, Lagos, porthacourt or Enugu and live in peace and my safe well guarantee by local leaders, police and the army but looking at some of events obviously happening around the Nigeria one will it is not well with Nigeria.. We need to speak up and understand that peace in Nigeria will only benefit all..

Your there trying to deal with racism and your fighting tribalism on top of it all.
Atleast instead of telling them to leave since he is a member of the church, you could have told not play and just observe the wedding. The way hate will now be flowing in the church of God.

Did you read that piece at all? It was written by an igboman and succinctly captures the paradox inherent in the igbo man. He does not mind going to other places to enjoy their tolerance and large-heartedness, even though in his heart he hates them and would not return the favour or show such magnanimity to non-igbos in igboland. How many non-igbos do you people employ in your markets? Even among yourselves you discriminate, not to talk of towards outsiders. Didn't Enugu people fired Anambra workers from their civil service, or Abia fired non-indigene igbos? You people don't hide your hatred for non-igbos on this website, and you have extended that to non-christians. Who else does that in this country? Even the writer confirms that hatred. You people should learn to tolerate other Nigerians the same way they have always tolerated you.

That is part of the tribalism the writer was talking about. Igbos are not the only people trading and doing business all over Nigeria. There are hard working and diligent traders and business people all over Nigeria, Africa and indeed the wholw world. Hardly will an igboman ever see, admit, or praise the good traits in other Nigerians. Rather he sees himself as the only hard working and diligent worker while every other Nigerian must be lazy and unsuccessful. You people are not more hard working than other Nigerians, ok? Unless you are the one putting food on other tribes table learn not to look down on others, ok? How would you feel if other tribes decide not to patronize your market and traders because of your crass tribalism? Will you still claim to be more hard working or a failure? This is the attitude the writer was referring to. You people just can't help yourselves. It has really eaten deep.
