Lets get it started; As far as I can read the topic says "the yoruba are the most accomodating in Nigeria". Now Alh hare aka Jason, what makes the yoruba more accomodating and what makes the Igbos less accomodating ? Have you lived in lagos Island ? Have you lived in Onicha,PH,warri and Asaba ? I want you to give me one attribute that makes them more accomodating and dont give me that crap about all ethnic groups living in lagos cos lagos in not the only yoruba state and we have all ethnicities living in Aba,ph,onicha,jos,calabar and kano. So, tell me how the content of this article qualifies as a fact ? Did he make indepth research on how yorubas treat their visitors and compare that to how Igbos treat theirs ? How did he arrive at that conclusion? Could it be that he was mistaking the infrastructural abilities that lagos offers due to its host of the federal capital for decades for accomodation on the yoruba part ? I was born in jos and lived their till i was 15yrs before we moved to bini and from bini to lagos before i left for abroad. I have some solid facts from about the yorubas which i accumulated from experience in dealing with them. This is an assignment for you! I will present lots of my various encounter with yorubas as we progress..

Since you decided to refer to me in your post, yes, I am Alj harem!!!!! and he is me!!! Hope you can sleep tonight!

As for your yarns about accommodation or not, no city in the world is built on the foundation of intolerance. Therefore, why are there more cities in the SW than the SE?

I can see how deluded you are.

Let the gbege start and lets see how Igbos would uproot Lagos and locate it in the Ebonyi forest.

If you are looking for acts of cowardice, look no further than the warlord who skipped town to Abidjan and left his populace to die

Well, i'm happy that your leaders, Fashola and Tinubu understand what i'm talking about. To you dumbskulls here, i'm just mouthing off. But this is a serious issue.Lagos is a very delicate matter, and the last thing your leaders want is an Hausa/Igbo alliance on the issue of Lagos. Go back to my analysis with Jerusalem. Maybe you will start to get the picture. The bone of contention here is LAGOS. Not Ibadan, Ife or Ondo. Yorubas have to be very carefull on that because we Igbos will align with the hausas if our properties and investments are threatened. however, that will never happen simply because YORUBAS DON'T HAVE THE BALLS. So let's just leave lagos for what it is. Peace, i'm out.

Why are you so predictable? This is what you resort to after fanning the embers of ethnic war.

[size=18pt]How did I fan ethnic war ?? Please tell me bros afam

A reporter said yorubas are accommodating and I agreed with him until your silly eastern brothers came to start insulting yorubas calling us all sort of names just cause A NON-YORUBA SAID SOMETHING GOOD ABOUT YORUBA.

Infact, this thread should not have any Igbo in it in the right sense but ofcourse Igbos are quick to insult yorubas since they know we are cowards unlike the hausas where ordinary cartoon would cause the killing of Igbos.

Abeg carry on with una inult as far as I am concerned, Yorubas are not in any competition with the Ndigbo people so i don't see any bases for comparison here.

Yes again if it means so much to the Igbos so they can stop writing lies and insult about us, then by all means have it.

Again Igbos are the most accommodating group in Nigeria. Make we rest now[/size]

There is nothing worth coming out from really. It is just an observation i have made on this forum. They must always show up talking smack about anything that is remotely Yoruba.

If it's people like Sam Omatseye are the ones that are going to help in taking Nigeria out of this quagmire through the media then it means we may have to wait longer than this because his utterance is not only chauvinistic but borne out of myopia and azz-licking. What's wrong with saying something like "Yorubas are one of the most accomodating groups in Nigeria". What he said can be seen as an insult to the entire Nigerian populace. Anyway, who i'm i to blame him. Like they say "He who plays the piper dictates the tune".

You'll just kill yourself over nothing. If any ethnic war breaks out between Yorubas and Igbos. I can bet that your leaders will beg. Apart from those area boys that will burn all your properties. Your people will simply be trapped. Lagos is surrounded at all sides. Before you can get to your SE, you'll have to pass through Ogun and Ondo. Its a pity that the present generation, instead of looking for peace, they want war.

Are you neutral? No.

Anyone who's neutral could say so because majority of Nigerians live in Lagos. Even if there are 15 million Igbos in lagos and 500 Yorubas in Enugu, it does not make the Yorubas more accomodating. If we follow your line of thought, it mean New York is the most accomodating city in the US.

Nobody is disputing the fact that Yorubas are accomodating. But in saying this, are we saying other Nigerians are not accomodating too? or are we saying Yorubas are more accomodating than Igbos and other groups? if so, why do you think so?
