Will you take away this nonsense away from here or do you think we are talking about the best in armed robbery and kidnapping ni ? Ode

@topic

Sam is just asserting what has been known to the whole world.IF YORUBAS WERE HAUSAS,THEY WOULD HAVE BOMBED THE HELL OUT OF THOSE STRANGERS ON THEIR LAND.we are indeed God's own people and I'm so proud to be a YORUBA.We are not arrogant,we are just better than you. tongue tongue

Dude, na you again with the tribal drivel?

Kindly inform us of your achievements as an individual? I always find it's the lowest forms of life in all tribes that are the most tribal. Latching unto every achievement of a tribesperson as thier own.

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.

Yea, just b'cos every nationalities are found in newyork simply means they are the most accomodating of all American cities !
And guess what in US they have the phrase "southern hospitality" but these same people that pride themselves on good hospitality are the most racist ppl on this earth ! I am very disappointed at the those who are here jubilating over an article written on a clear bias and uninformed judgement !

Sam omatseye is just doing what most journalists do these days for survival;lik tha arrse of politicians. Most people irrespective of tribe who grew up in jos will not come up with that kind of omatseye write up about yoruba being most accomodating bla bla bla.there are many yoruba in enugu,calabar,uyo,ph,jos and these people will gladly tell you that their host communities are very accomodating.media practioners should not indulge in such divisive tribal statements.

People treat Igbos like outcaste ? You are very ignorant! you should have given me facts that made you think yorubas are best at accomodating instead of this your weak one-liner response. Go back in the house!
your mental state of health comes under scrutiny once again.I said what did your father do not what did the igbos do?

How can u si.lly animals claim Yoruba is accomodating?

Do u know i spent 14months in lagos before i get a house? reason being dat am an igbo? about 6 Yoruba stupid landlords asked me if am igbo and my affirmation cost me d houses. where am staying presently is owned by a delta man and there are both Yoruba, igbo, calabar tenants. Have u asked yourselves why igbo people are buying up any available land in lagos to build their own house? Bc theyknow wot they face in d hands of wicked Yoruba landlords. Yoruba are very wicked set of people especially those with oyo tribal marks. If u dont 'dobale' to greet them, u are an enemy. Y are u pple bragging about lagos as if Yoruba developed lagos? even in lagos Yorubas are sidelined to d remote areas of mushin, ajegunle, ikotun, oshodi, iyana ipaja. Go to those area and see Yoruba dirty trademarks on display.

if lagos been a former capital and as a result accomodates every tribe in nigeria can be used as yardstick to promote Yoruba as d most accomodating, then other states like abeokuta, akure, ekiti, oshogbo etc shuldnt be considered Yoruba states, maybe lagos = Yoruba. others are not Yoruba

Exactly, it's because you are Igbo that is why they would not want to rent the house to you(BTW, THE SAME THING HAPPENS IN PORT-HARCOURT, BENIN CITY AND THE NORTH). After read these comments, who in their right mind will want to rent to you?!

SHUT UP! What does this have to do with your ethnicity?! I have insulted Yorubas before so I say again, to hell with your Yoruba. That has nothing to do with me. Must you tell me your ethnic group? Your comment shows that you are the bias person. What does "Yorubas are accommodating" have to do with IGBO.

Note: no other ethnic group went up in arms apart from the Igbos. Please read the whole thread before commenting!

Good point. The article, no doubt, contains exaggerated claims. A better caption would have read like this: Yorubas are one of the most accommodating groups in Nigeria. The article should be read in the context of advocating a special status for Lagos. He went weird and concocted whatever his mind could fathom to justify his assertion possibly for reasons best known to him.

The East, the South and some part of the North devoid of virulent strain of Islam are as accommodating as the West. But no matter the claims of Sam, the article remains his opinion and in most cases you either agree or disagree with him. If anyone feels strongly about it, one can write a rejoinder, but we don't need to reduce it to Igbo versus Yoruba affair.
