Without any doubt, i believe igbos are the biggest tribe in nigeria, followed by yoruba, hausa, Ijaw etc. You find this ppl everywhere and Imo state is the most densely populated after lagos state.

Forget about the theories that floats around that hausa are the majority, igbo are the biggest tribe.

I actually don't know who is larger. We need an accurate census.

Igbo tribe in the largest in Nigeria. Also has the highest kidnapings and robberies rate in Nigeria so what's there to be so proud of ?

hmmmmmmmmmmmm

Ogidiboy, shut up and stop tring to broil up a fight.
Some ppl dnt know that you're Igbo.

In poverty-stricken Nigeria, it is not a pride to be the largest ethnic group because it translates directly to the most poverty-stricken which Igbos are not. Perhaps if all the Igbos in diaspora return, you might be correct. But for now, Igbos are not the largest group which most likely is the hausa-fulani binity (carved from trinity). The smaller the better, since we are not (yet) America.

Kidnapping yes (for now, was not so before), robbery no. You are a bonafide ignoramus.

The OP is trying to start trouble, and he is not Igbo

Why make an assertion to get people angry? Numbers matter.

Seems like this Igbo boy is suffering from self-hate. As Americans say, you do not air out your dirty laundry for the whole world to see.

Ogidiboy, do some math here

Oyo, Imo, Ogun, others lead in armed robbery
By Yusuf Alli Published Today News Rating: Unrated
Armed robbery cases are more pronounced in seven of the 36 states, it was learnt yesterday.

The states are Oyo, Imo, Ogun, Kano, Cross River, Rivers and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).

The crime figures, which are contained in the 2008 Report of the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS), are based on cases reported to the police as at the end of 2007.

The breakdown of the armed robbery cases in the seven states, as at 2007 ending, is as follows: Oyo (224); FCT (172); Imo (176); Rivers (145); Cross River (137); Kano (108); and Ogun (107).

But while Lagos State recorded a drastic fall in armed robbery cases from 300 to 70, eight states had less than 28 armed robbery incidents.

The states are: Gombe(27); Benue(27); Plateau(26); Kwara(25); Sokoto(24); Jigawa(16); Kebbi(20); and Yobe(20).

The ratings of others are: Abia(89); Adamawa(96); Akwa Ibom(88); Anambra(96); Bauchi(41); Bayelsa(52); Borno(41); Delta(63); Ebonyi(51); and Edo(79).

Others are Ekiti(85); Kaduna(40); Katsina(31); Kogi(41); Nasarawa(36); Niger(32); Ondo(58); Osun(51); Taraba(80);

Although it could not be ascertained why the 2007 figure for Enugu State was not listed, a source said: "we had 44 cases for the state as at 2006."

The source in the NBS, who spoke in confidence with The Nation, said the figures are "the current official records/data which any institution or person could work with."

"We based our statistics on the five-year data provided by the Nigeria Police Force and the period in question had covered 2003 to 2007 for comparison. But the latest figure will be that of 2007 which we have produced as a report that is already in circulation in government and public.

"We got far-reaching statistics from the police including the numbers of persons arrested; those prosecuted for robbery; suspects awaiting trial; civilians killed by armed robbers; armed robbers killed by the police; the injured robbers; and cases pending investigation.

"The statistics is not meant to ridicule any state but it will assist those with high crime rates to improve on their security network. For the police in particular, it would allow them to take stock and strengthen their operation in flash-points," the source added.

The report said: "The Data on public order are sourced from the Nigeria Police Force. They cover crimes, road accident cases and casualties, armed robbery cases and involvement, vehicles stolen and recovered, court cases, juvenile cases and bank frauds."

modify your post and stop causing problems. Ogidi is not even Yoruba, he is a self hating Igbo
but why assume he is Yoruba and start posting garbage?

Gbam!

Ogidi is in Anambra. Isn't that the birthplace of Chinua Achebe? It is sad, that a self hating Igbo is from that illustrious town that gave the world Chinua Achebe.

olas2u:

Desert populations do not produce more babies than tropical populations. That is a fact. Their region cannot support such a large population.

People I'm not self hating ohhh, I love being Igbo. We have very serious issues in the East now, you can't even go home without hiring armed policemen

and  you'll just expect me to act like everything is all fine and dandy, ok sorry.

Forget about BecomPOOR maps, Igbo ppl are the largest, biggest and baddest tribe in naija!
