It has got to do with the fact we are much more beautiful than Yoruba girls. It has got to do with the fact that we are generally fairer in complexion. It has got to do with alot of steroe typical views Yoruba have about the Igbo's. It has got to do with wanting another man's wife. It has got to do with your competition with the Igbo's. It has got to do with your deep cited resentment for Igbo men. It has got to do with your level of un-intelligence. It has got to do with not appreciating yoruba women enough. xx wink

C'mon! There's no course to take this personal and resort to tag-calling. I won't take ur comments seriously!

grin  grin You obviously missed the thread where one Igbo boy was saying Igbos are the OYINBOS of Africa!  grin  grin They are first class, aren't they?? Empty barrels and noise  . . . . !   grin It amazes me that a 'fair' complexion is the measure of beauty! I have seen Igbo girls darker than dark, and yoruba girls so fair! Being dirty or neat has nothing to do with tribe or ethnicity, it is a personal thing!

That said, there are more IGBO-YORUBA inter-marriages this days because of our education and it is a fantastic development! My Yoruba bunkie at Uni married an Igbo guy; my Aunt married a Calabar man; my sister has only ever dated Delta guys; my Anambra uni friend married a yoruba guy . . . it's all happening around us and it is a very welcome development! The days of  'you must marry someone from your village or Amadioha/Sango will strike you'  grin are fast coming to an end!


so r u saying that if we are educated, we become more developed by marrying sumwun from another tribe  yet isnt it our moral duty ALSO to protect our culture? my firend, education has absolutely nuthing to do with cohabitation. its time we stop being so selfish and think for d greater good.  angry angry

i can be educated, i can be smart, YET i can also be a tribal nwhen i am not wearing my suit, i have d moral right and duty to don sum face paint and leaves and do a masquerade, if it is a part of my age-old traditions and culture. one must enjoy life, but one most also not forget his/her duties to the community.

u just said dat a tribe r a group of monkeys. and the Maguzawa Hausa ARE a tribe, and its not just us, there r so many tribals living around the world and i am speaking for everyone. u can google us on wikipedia and it specifically says that we are a tribe. In fact, we r the last surviving Pagan Hausa tribe in the world.  or r u jus sayin that u wer insulting a non-existent being called a tribe.  cuz dat doesnt make ne sense. -.-

RFLMAO!!! Come on man! OK, you know what, since the word tribe is of multiple meanings and usage. I guess you can choose to use whichever suits you.
Re: Inter-tribal Dating Between Yoruba And Igbo: A Good Sign for Naija's Future! by PAGAN9JA(m): 10:33pm On Jun 17, 2011
No i have been referring to myself and my people as a tribe, since the time i learnt who i was, so i wont change it to some other meaning jus cuz sum inter-tribal breeding machine insults my concept. im actually surprised dat u didnt even have d courtesy to apologise for ur crude and uncivilised comment.

SMH @ this clown cunningly ripping intelligence of me. Do you know the implications of being called "typical" ? LOL! DAMN!!! Your dad should have invested in better educational standards bro.

you didn't call me a typical anything. you put the word in quote. grin it is just like saying that you are "stupid." that would be wrong, you are actually stupid. no quotes!

you don't need to be verbose, we sharp minds resent that trait usually found among idiots.

Education usually results in enlightenment . . . but obviously not in every case! Two parties decide to put ethnic barriers behind them and get married, and live happily together; I see no problem with that! If education does not improve us, what will! Marriage does not stop you from performing your 'age old traditions and customs'! Education - if enlightenment had come by it - lets you get rid of 'age old traditions and customs' that add no value to your life or that of the society! Try placing traditional scarifices at t- junctions in the middle of London, and you'll enjoy explaining to the police how it is your tradition and culture!  grin  grin Letting go of ridiculous/needless traditions does not mean you forget your duties to the society! There are people marry and consumate marriages with children as part of their culture/tradition. Education enlightens us and helps us refine our way of life - if we let it!

I seriously wonder where these guys come from, that keep dating dirty Yoruba gals, na from village una see them? I can't just fathom it, I can never, ever, ever, date an Igbo guy no matter how'garnished he might look, they always look razz to me,I rather date, Benin guys/ delta, (not the Igbo part of delta) then for the cooking aspect, someone mentioned Yoruba girls can't cook, please don't mention it at all, been in igboland infact, grew up with most of them, their food is not grate at all, they will cook rice with no salt, let me not even start. Some Igbo gals are neat, but 80% are covered with hair, all over, I bet the guys are licking up everything, using tooth- pick to remove hair stuck to their teeth,

I have dated about 5 igbo girls, 1 urhobo, 4 yoruba girls in my life

From all this I can categorically state that the Yoruba girls are the good. I am yoruba by ethnic group but I would tell you the truth. Yoruba women are clean and decent. In fact the last yoruba girl I dated was so nice I could not compare of to another.

Truly yoruba women are lovely in nature(that is if they love you). Other women are nice as well. Of all of them the Urhobo girl was the best.

Re: Inter-tribal Dating Between Yoruba And Igbo: A Good Sign for Naija's Future! by Nobody: 4:14am On Jun 18, 2011
But yet, other non-yorubas keep dumping themselves on the same "ugly" Yoruba people. At the end of the day, the Yorubas usually get whoever they want.

Most of the commentators on here are long time tribalists, just check post history.

The only thing saving Igbo men is their money. Without that. . ,  hmm nothing. Even their women are marrying Yoruba men in plenty nowadays.  Igbo men are usually too razz and most of the time homosexuals. CONFIRMED!
Re: Inter-tribal Dating Between Yoruba And Igbo: A Good Sign for Naija's Future! by igboboy1(m): 4:35am On Jun 18, 2011
i can see lots og Yoruba girls that would be life long spinster, sorry una no get competition from our fine igbo girls, All the Yoruba men when they sight that radiating skin dem go kolo,

Its funny just how here in the states black sistas are hating on oyibo, chinese and latino girls for taking all the black men the same way Yoruba girls are complaining about igbo girls taking all the Yoruba men hahahaha.

Well my advice to those spinster is u berra invest on some d.il.d.o cos u aint gonna get no Yoruba stick anytinme soon  tongue
Re: Inter-tribal Dating Between Yoruba And Igbo: A Good Sign for Naija's Future! by Nobody: 4:42am On Jun 18, 2011
Who exactly is complaining?

Its a good thing actually. And the bad thing is, they usually marry/ cheat with  another Yoruba woman at the end. Leading to polygamy (I'm a feminist of polygamy, detest it).

Inter-tribal dating has been going on in Nigeria for ages, esp bewteen Yorubas and Non-Yorubas, but how has it changed the tense atmosphere?

Yorubas tend to extend their lineage and tribal units towards other ethnicity, that kind of connection will be good for business later.

Yoruba women tend to marry/date men from the SS( esp Bini), while Yoruba men tend to go all over.

Yorubas have evolved from that tribal chain of marrying from only your village a long time ago. Out of West Africa, Yorubas are known to be flexible with their contacts; religiously, matrimonial, etc.  ( this is from well documented facts).


Any half-Nigerian you meet, they'll likely be half-Yoruba.
Re: Inter-tribal Dating Between Yoruba And Igbo: A Good Sign for Naija's Future! by Nobody: 4:47am On Jun 18, 2011
BTW, the only ones complaining here is Igbo dudes who dey vex because Yoruba men dey take una women, but unfortunately, Yoruba women dont roll your way.
How many Igbo men have confessed of wanting this yoruba woman and that Yoruba woman? Countless, when they're not in the throes of tibalism. grin
Re: Inter-tribal Dating Between Yoruba And Igbo: A Good Sign for Naija's Future! by igboboy1(m): 4:48am On Jun 18, 2011
Yorubas the ever sophosticated peeple,, infact the only advanced people in Nigeria, na wa, una no go kill me with your self glorification and praises, so na only Yoruba dey do outside village marrying enh?

My popsi nkor? leave delta go marry momsi for rivers state, do u know how many village he crossed for that? nne biko leave that one, the matter remains in the next 100 years the Yoruba race might be full evolutionised to the point we go dey see people like tonto dike asnwering funmi adewale, people like the yellow guy in bracket answering oluwatemi modupe all because their momsi is igbo and gave them some good genes,

Well i aint mad, anything that makes my fellow nigerian not to look like tokyo the oyo nurtw chairman i am for it  grin
