The extremely proud nature of the South-Southeners(they never beg for anything and do not kiss arzzzes)! The cohesiveness of the North-Northerners, minus their damn religion! They are always one. . .never killing themselves for rituals! NORTH AND SOUTH OF NIGERIA FOR EVER! Nothing to love about the East or West of Nigeria. I don't like cowards and I don't like materialistic hedonists masquerading as 'religious' beings! Case closed! |

Stop using the word tribe. It's inaccurate and demeaning. Ethnic group is the appropriate term. |

@OP I think there's a thread already on this subject. Anyway, I love all ethnic groups. I've got a plan to tour the length and breadth of Nigeria by God's grace, before I expire. |

dem_people: ^^^ Noble effort bruh, but you might wanna consider not commencing the tour just yet. Or else you might find you expire faster than expected with a 'WTF ' look of surprise on your 'expired' face. |
Re: What You Love About The "naija" Tribes. by ezeagu(m): 9:26pm On Jun 10, 2011 |
dem_people: I would advise you not to tour the whole length otherwise you will surely end up somebody's spare parts, and I'm talking about the north, south, east, and west of Nigeria! |

PROUD-IGBO: ezeagu: The tour would happen at sometime in my lifetime but not soon. Its gonna happen when I think its conducive to do so. |

Rossikk: NO ITS NOT! ""tribe"" sounds much cooler and is actually more accurate. |

PAGAN 9JA: He is right. The word tribe is very demenaing and isnultive. There are 12 tribes of Israel but they are all ethnic Jews. Tribe is used by whites when referring to negroes with a negative, uncivilized and uncultured conotation. Please use ethnic group it is cleaner and sounds more educated. Blazay: Same thing you are doing now isnt it? Minority kissing Hausa backside, yet they still steal your people's oil and destroy your environment and you continue to love them. Good for yourself. |

no its still wrong. the Jews r a religious group so u cant call dem ""ethnic"" Jews. They have different ethnicities within dem such as Ashkenazis, Mizrahims,etc, or else u can start referring to christians as an ethnic group. this is really absurd. THERS JUS NOTHING WRONG WITH BEING REFERRED TO AS A TRIBE. A TRIBE IS AS CLEAN AS SAYING AN ETHNIC GROUP. tribes r basically used for relatively smaller groups of ppl. its just dat. |
Re: What You Love About The "naija" Tribes. by odumchi: 3:02am On Jun 13, 2011 |
So Israelites aren't an ethnic group? But if so, I'd prefer you refer to yourself and your people as a "tribe" as from myself I hail from the Igbo ethnic group. Last time I checked 33 million and counting was majority in Nigeria. |
Re: What You Love About The "naija" Tribes. by PAGAN9JA(m): 12:27pm On Jun 13, 2011 |
no Israelites arent an ethnic group. anyone from Israel can be called an Israelite, for ex., aa palestinian living in israel or an arab in israel r all Israelite. and its fine wi me. u can use d word ethnic group and ill use d word tribe. its ones personal choice. |
Re: What You Love About The "naija" Tribes. by odumchi: 6:25pm On Jun 13, 2011 |
You're not getting me. Israelites are different from the Modern day Israelis. Israelites of the bible were an ethnicity chosen by God to receive his Word. Palestinians are people that dwell in Palestine but they are ethnic Arabs. |

im Pagan so i dont believe wat d bible says. d bible said too many rong things for me 2 consider this true now. and by d way, it was never mentioned in d bible dat d Israelites wer an ethnicity. d word ethnicity was neva used. |
