Please explain what is the definition of "tribe" and why you call Yoruba a "tribe"
Is "tribe" a word reserved for non-white people?

Are Zulus richer than Afrikaans ?
OR

Are Afrikaans not a tribe because they are white

Afrikaans are colonizers. They are Dutch and their homeland is Netherlands, Sweden etc. I think he meant ethnic groups, not tribes.

You did not answer the question
The question is about tribe, it meaning and why the Yoruba are called a "tribe"

Who is not a colonizer did Human beings grow out of the ground?

The Afrikaans are there now and they are not going anywhere
Throughout history invasion, colonization and conquest have happened even among the black groups in Africa people have been kicked out of lands and replaced by stronger groups

The question was

To me, they are not an ethnic group from Africa. Africa is not their homeland. Europe is. If they are booted out of Africa, they can easily join the rest of their brothers in Europe, unlike the other ethnic groups.

Stop pulling rubbish from your putrid smelling ass and trying to pass it off as facts.

Stop making your education to appear like waste of resources, because all these fantasies can only decieve gullible people.

Yorubas are richest in Africa because Lagos is geographically in SW?

Same education Igbos have long overtaken you is what you're claiming to be dominant? Wake up dude, this is 2021 and not 1920!

You produce the bulk of doctors, lawyers and engineers yet Igbos have been topping in University enrollment since the past 20 years!

You're the richest in Africa yet your entire region is filled with unlivable rustic towns with red roofs and dilapidated buildings grin grin
