@ tpia & ileke-idi.  Mr. Cork Is yoruba jor! Otherwise, he wouldn't be criticising igbo celebrities anyhow, and his "writing accent" (no oofeinse) if you study it carefully is yoruba. 190 is definitely yoruba (don't forget that his NL wife, omolola is yoruba). Dobodobo is definitely yoruba. Why can't you people own up? I guess its coz nobody wants to be associated with them. . . . And make una no call me tribalist o. Grew up in abeokuta (my second home), so i can spot out any yoruba coz they have a pattern of communication (like the don't argue too much like the igbo or hausa. They just tell you their mind go.

I'll add a bit to what tpia have said. . . . don't go on thinking that ppl that speak yoruba are ALL Yorubas. As you know, Yoruba is widely spoken across Nigeria. . . . so kilode?

And why judge a man by his NL character esp when he's lavishing in anonymity?

You guyz just keep raising irrelevant issues all the time and sometimes, I tell myself that you are actually using it to burn out the daily frustrations. . . .

When a Yoruba girl marries an Igbo man, no story
When a Yoruba girl marries an Efik/Ibibio, no worry
When a Yoruba girl marries an hausa, no prob
When a Yoruba girl marries an Idoma or Tiv, no wahala
When a Yoruba girl marries an Edo, no question
When a Yoruba girl marries a Delta-Igbo, Urhobo-Igbo, Nigerdeltan-Igbo, Ika-Igbo, Ikwerre-Igbo, etc, no NL

But the story begins when a Yoruba man marries an Igbo girl, whats the big deal? angry
You can just go ahead and label them all "Married" so that no other tribe marry them.

In a nutshell, your level of exposure has always affected you, you stay in Lagos and judge everything you see from a Lagos perspective. The population of the environment where the ladies reside and whom they associate with determines most time. This particular topic is as old as NL.

Get talking about those things that add value to life. . .

Dear, dont be worried. Believe, igbos are the most accommodating i've seen in this world. Why? Igbos are very migratory in nature. They cannot to be hostile to strangers because most times they are often strangers. Probably you are yoruba. She worked in Lagos? Many igbos who lived/worked in Lagos develop what i call 'retaliatory dislike' (myself inclusive) due to the unwelcome attitude of the locals to immigrants. Its your boyfriend that will 'sell' you to his mum, together with your attitude. Normally, igbo girls are raised to be hardworking, they do all stuff of tough task, like ride bicycles. I'm not saying you ride a bicycle, just showing how tough igbo girls are expected to be. If you are not lousy and industrious, you'll be good enough for any igbo mother-in-law and accepted.

You said in one of your posts that Igbo girls that marry Yoruba men are products of inferiority complex,. Now are you advising this lady (another tribe) to become a product of inferiority complex by marrying an igbo man cos it is a natural phenomenal.

Ok, back to your question. 

It's a common fact that Yoruba men are careless with women. They are  generally big flirts who are never faithful to their wives and dont respect the sacred institution of marriage. Yoruba women are quite adapted to dealing with this kind of philandering of their men. They are used to it from the founding of the world. That is why i pity clueless Igbo girls who are fancying Yoruba men. I hope they tell their stories with a happy ending in the future. I will always tell my sisters the truth, if they refuse to listen and go ahead. Best of luck.

An Igbo man, on the other hand, will do everything to protect his wife and marriage because they just dont have the time to be looking for 'ale', or for philandering with everything in skirts.

This why a Yoruba woman  or any other women are better protected in the arms of an Igbo man than vice versa.

I speak the truth, babe.(no ofeinse).

1. O ti n cra.ze ti pe. . . ti awon omo yoruba ba n roll fun cousin e, ki lode ti ko ti mu ikan ninu won, he is just looking for a way to avoid purchasing a girl as if he was buying a house in Ikoyi. . . he wants a place they will tell him we are not for sale and do not sell our children smiley

2. As for 'ale', there is no man on this planet earth including 'clergy men' who is not polygamous by nature, given same parameters! And looking at our forefathers (all over Nig and Africa, SA president has more than 5 wives), they used it as a means of explaining how wealthy they were cos the number of wives, children and pple they catered for justified their affluence! Se o mo pe there is no bas.ta.rd in Igbo land, all children (proven or not) MUST be accepted by the husband, hence they dont do DNA like other tribes even though their women are the only ones who keep giving birth to whites in the name of genetic mistake wink lol. (no offence).

My neighbour from Ebonyi, his present wife is the third (wives are from Imo and Anambra), and the probability of sending her away btw this yr and the next is 95% and take the forth. The two women have thereby re-married.

3. Also, 60% of the married men who have approached me (sincerely) are Igbos who have vowed to their wives that there is no one else after them . . . . I even know one in Ikeja right now who already has a second wife in Ikorodu but the wife doesnt know and he is still trying to woo me. A calabar friend of mine who married Igbo just got to know that he has 3 kids in the US. Two different friends of mine (Yoruba) who married your pple has called me twice (God is my witness) that I should avoid them cos they are not real. So what's your point?

An Nnewi born and bred colleague has vowed never to marry an Igbo and her boy friends are always either Yoruba or Edo, she said she wont say more than that. If she eventually marries Edo or Yoruba, you pp;e will say a Yoruba man has married another Igbo girl instead of saying she has just escaped from the lion's den. cool

So have it in mind that Yoruba men do theirs in public while Igbo men do it in hidden. . . all the same, men are men!!

You just proved my point with that statement of yours. Have you heard about the word 'intrinsically' unfaithful? That's what Yoruba men are. I swear it's only a Yoruba woman that can handle that urge of Yoruba men because they are equally good if they want to.

What gets me is that their targets are usually their friends' wives or daughters. They are even known to sleep with their own daughters, which is kind of exclusive to them minus the 'calabars'. They see it as some kind of 'superiority conquest'. It has to be a married woman for the thrill to be achieved. It's publicly encouraged and celebrated. It is further encouraged by the muslim polygamists among your people. I dont want that kind of destiny for my sisters. Yoruba women are used to it and it's fine if they like it.

Yes, once in a while you find an Igbo married man with such tendencies, but believe me, they are largely in the minority. That's why like you said we dont bother about DNA tests because unfaithfulness is rare and a strange concept. The belief is that the gods of the land will kill such a woman or man that flirts outside their matrimonial home.

The embrace of Christianity from the europeans imbibed monogamy into our psyche and nothing can change that. An Igbo man can never be too BOLD bringing a second wife into his home. His mother must not hear it.

Hmmnn, infact, there is no better way to describe you than a shallow minded. Where you not here on NL in June when a man's 12 years girl was carrying his 7months old baby in delta state and Igbos quickly disowned them that they are not Igbo, later you will be dragging them to be Igbo by force but neglect them at any negative thing.

Another was published in PM the following wk in Ebonyi, then you refused to respond and then 2 different ones from ND, Igbos quickly disowned them again, and the list goes thus . . . . I was in Cotonou on Saturday (23rd/oct/2010) when an Igbo girl of 17 years was impregnated by her dad and died while he took her to a quack doctor for abortion and he was taken to the police station . . . . then my Cotonou friend said the thing is becoming rampant even in their midst, but I didnt bring it to NL cos I see it as a sign of end time but here you are rejoicing over a general thing (not only in Nig but even abroad). . . . so please find me another point and I will prove to you that your exposure is too low.

2.

3. Beliefs were effective in every culture b4 the arrival of the colonial masters . . . .but at their arrival, they brought us education and christianity then told us that our beliefs were mere superstitions and baseless so we started doing the abomination things secretly and nothing happened to us, hence we got to know that beliefs are things of the mind.

Haba, funmi, you disappoint me, Lag chicks dey dey extra informed. What you said here is trash talk. But it's a common fallacy held by Yorubas in Lag.

@topic I disagree because yorubas guys marry everyone literally regardless of tribe or religion. same with the women I know of yoruba ladies na only big deal because igbo people like to make it a big deal LOL hahah real talk tho.- you wont find many yoruba people talking about how yoruba guys are marrying non yoruba women or you wont find many yoruba people talking about about yoruba women marry non yoruba guys. cause we dont give a shiot!

Yorubas have been having children and marrying from non yorubas FOR HUNDREDS OF YEARS.

na only igbo gals that like to pump themselves up as if theyre more desired than other babes from other tribes and na only igbo guys who get problem with seeing igbo babes marry any NON eastern guy. HAHAHA

LOL all jokes aside I dont know who im going to marry  my mother father yoruba and muslim married  three wives ewe,urhobo and fulani-nupe. two who converted to islam and theres no traces of christian or any non yoruba tribe in them except middle names- they dont even acknowledge their mother families.

I think so too.

Actually i'll say sth thats quite politically incorrect. No proper igbo girl will marry a yourba cock(i mean born and breed in igboland).
Most of the igbo girls who are born in yourbaland(especially Lagos) grow up with some form of inferiority complex. I've personally met quite a number. Usually they speak little or no igbo, are unfamiliar with igbo culture, but fluent in yourba.
So yourba cocks with no game to hook up a yourba chick find these as easier prey. Ofcourse they usually falld to find 'solace' for their inferiority complex(not all though)
So for a yourba cock to marry an igbo girl 2 conditions must be met:
1. The igbo girl is breed in yourbaland, usually speaks yourba, culturally disconnected from her native igbo homeland.
2. The yourba cock has no game to get a yourba girl.
From my findings and interveiws on inter-tribal relationships, its the same reasons why you have more hausa men marrying yourba girls. Many of my hausa friends have yourba wives


Roflmao!!!
I doubt you know the meaning of inferiority complex. People have moved on over tribal hogwash, while you are here still living with myopia. Did they spit you from the 18th century? Tell them to return you back. This era is not for you. (no ofeinse) grin grin tongue tongue tongue tongue tongue

Funny enough I was thinking it's the igbos's that love dressing to kill. Yes the yorubas are fashionistas as well especially with their nice lace materials and stuffs.

But I have visited alot of igbo chuches in naija(anglican churches though) and the women like dress to kill

Even here whenever there is an independent party its more like the igbos showing off their latest fashion.

And yes maybe there are marrying the gurls cos they want wives that will always look good for them. Maybe
