That's a subjective assertion. I haven't met half the people you've met, and you've not met half the people I've met. I grew up in Lagos, but now base in my town, PH. While in Lagos, in my high school, the tallest boys I knew were Igbos, same when I went to University. Yours could be the other way round, so no problem.

no na Igala him be lol

Igalas are Yorubas

Itshekiri people are Niger Deltans like me, not Yoruba. You are not itshekiri, concentrate on South West

Say wetin? I no be Itsekiri? You can't even spell it idiot. Abeg swerve. You well so? Niger Delta na tribe? Wetin concern Warri with Ikwerre? If I carry Ogun curse you.

HEAVEN4444:
its funny you say that because i have not met too many tall igbo boys in my lifetime and i aint no spring chicken. they are muscular but they are never tall. but these are just my own observations. maybe the tall ones are hiding from me

but i see tall hausa and yoruba guys everyday

That's why I said it's a subjective assertion . But if you happen to be more curious about seeing tall Igbo boys, you can easily see them in Amuwo/Okota/Abule Ado/Satellite Town areas, especially the residential estates.

Stop claiming Itsekiri! They are Niger Deltans from Delta State. Nothing concern Warri man and Ibadan man, concentrate on your side.

Igalas are Yorubas

Thank You my brother. Igalas are heterogeneous. Some are related to Jukun, some to Igbos, some to Ebira, and some to Yorubas.

I tire for these guys o! They have called me Fulani, Ogbomosho-man, even Ijaw whenever I say something they don't like. Most you like everything I post?

yorubas and itsekiri would always maintain a strong bond

Emilokoiyawon:

There is nothing like both. If your father is Yoruba, you are Yoruba it doesn't matter the tribe of your mother. He can celebrate his mother's culture as much as he wants but he will always remain a Yoruba man. Yemi Alade does same. Her music is mostly Igbotic but Yemi Alade remains a Yoruba woman.

Yemi always align herself to Igbos more than Yoruba.
Yemi just like Ugo and Ifeanyi Adeleke are products of both and you have no right to erase their ancestry just because they have a Yoruba surname.
Anybody that is a product of both end up representing both. So chill and stop stressing over Igbo/yoruba descendants.

Guy man. If you like call me Ogbomosho man. You couldn't even spell Itsekiri UNTIL I corrected you. Yes, I am Niger Deltan. What has that got to do with my Yoruba heritage? Are there not people in Delta with Igbo heritage?

What the fv-ck is even Niger Delta? Is Ondo state not Niger Delta? Is Abia and Imo state not Niger Delta? You are a dullard.

as soon as I saw him spell itsekiri wrongly my brain screamed bigot straight away anything uniting yorubas and itsekiri offends them a lot of people need to grow up

Gbam! What I don't understand is why Itsekiri-Yoruba link threatens an Ikwerre man. All my life I don't think I have met more than half-a-dozen Ikwerre people. There is no connection between us and Ikwerre at all at all.

Emilokoiyawon:


Keep fooling yourself. Igbos on average are shorter than Yorubas. You can take that to the bank.

Basketball stars are usually tall or taller than most people.
However when it comes to Nigeria, Igbos are taller than Yorubas while the tallest Nigerians are Fulanis and the middle belt.


Igbos on average are taller than Yorubas.

itsekiri and yorubas bear dsame names and speak same language no reason why we shouldn't have a relationship and no reason why our relationship should affect others

Shut your mouth. You are a mumu man! You are from Rivers state trying to dictate to a Warri man how to express my heritage? Are you madt? I have more in common with Plateau state (my mom's side) than I have with Ikwerre. What is Ikwerre? Wetin concern me with WAZOBIA? In case you don't know Imo and Ondo states are part of Niger Delta. So, I should also allow an Imo and Ondo man to dictate my life in Warri? Getat!

No nah Greece get am

Na Greek nurture and mold into the world class athlete he is now.

If he was in naija, he woulda been hanging from buses shouting Ojueleba, Oshodi, Yaba all over the place

I think this may help those arguing over his ancestry. An interview a FA licenced agent had with the family. The interview was conducted in October, last year.

FA-licensed football agent and international brand expert, Drew Uyi, has doffed his hat in celebration of Kostas Antetokounmpo and Giannis Antetokounmpo for the double NBA honours both brothers won in the just-concluded NBA 2020 season.

Giannis Sina Ugo Antetokounmpo, a power forward for the Milwaukee Bucks, was named the NBA Most Valuable Player for the just-concluded season.

Named the Greek Freak, Giannis ended the 2019–2020 NBA regular season with the highest player efficiency rating in NBA history and this season, won a second straight NBA Most Valuable Player award, beating LeBron James to the second position.

Gianni scooped 85 of a possible 101 first-place votes, with LeBron James receiving the remaining 16.

Their parents, Veronica and Charles Adetokunbo (Antetokounmpo), immigrated to Greece after leaving Nigeria’s commercial capital, Lagos, in the early 1990s. Their father, Charles Adetokunbo is from ONDO State.

i dont think. i know nigeria is great. its where the global spiritual rennaisance will start from. Nigeria is the spiritual epicenter of the world. and i am not talking about these fake pastors either. the messiah will emerge from Nigeria

Spiritual rennaisance can't start from Nigeria. The average Nigerian brain has been brainwashed by either Christianity or Islam. Spiritual rennaisance requires free thinking, which is lacking among Nigerians in general.

IF HE WANTS TO VISIT NIGERIA, FINE. THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT BUT THE DUDE IS GREEK. PURE AND SIMPLE.

Pure? Greek DNA is 100% European. Which school you attend sef? You don finish secondary?

He is both Igbo and Yoruba just like Davido's son. Both ethnic groups made him so chill with your foolishness.

Davido's son is Igbo.. davido is 0.75 Igbo and 0.25 Yoruba .
