Google is your friend if you don't have original knowledge. People are reading your comments, pls don't disgrace yourself.

Chartey:
You were angry when I made a honest and unbiased post devoid of insult about the Hausa and here you are insulting Igbos(I'm not even Igbo) to high heavens. Look at yourself in a mirror please!

cadanre:

What is an insult here? Am I not telling the truth?

cadanre:

I love Igbos too because they are the only one who tries to makes money by whatever means. They are the first people to build baby factories (Abia, Imo and Enugu) where women are being impregnated (Recent case of Dr. Uzoma in Imo) and whe they deliver, they were paid 100k for the babies. Business is good.

agbotaen: 1. i love ika women and men because of diversity , we have dark and beautiful people and very light skin people , in most ika families they have both dark and very fair people , and they are usually hardworking , morally concious and honest people

THIS GUY IS CRAZY... THEY SAID WHAT YOU LOVE ABOUT OTHER TRIBES NOT YOURS. CANT YOU COMPREHEND SIMPLE ENGLISH, AND BESIDE, IKA IS JUST A SUB CLAN OF IGBO THE WAY IJEBU IS A SUB CLAN OF YORUBA,OR ILAJE A SUB CLAN OF IJAW. GET A GRIP OF YOURSELVES.

I LOVE THE EFIKS, COS OF THE CUISINE AND NEATNESS,COUPLES WITH THE SEXINESS OF THEIR WOMEN

Christy G: pls say what u know.ilajes are not ijawa,they are yorubas just like ijebu,awori or egba.the ijaws in ondo state know themselves.they are Apoi ijaws and Arogbo ijaws and everybody knows that.an example of someone from ilaje is musician Sean Tizzle.his full name is oluwaseun morinhafen.does that sound like ijaw to u.

agbotaen: 1. ok , dumb and mumu igbo man , i love yoruba people and benin people and i dont like most igbo people , because they are dumb and only useful as propagandists, and mind you charity begins at home , so i have to begin with ika and mind you ika is not a subtribe of igbo , our fathers have made that known in 1930 and 1967 when they declared they were not part of igbo tribe and that statement is quite clear and that led to ikas chasing igbos away from ika land. so get that , but u can engage in what your tribe knows best to do that is propaganda and no wonder your fathers said they had successfully wiped out nigeria troops , when in reality the nigerian army was kicking biafran ass , even in biafran enclave

agbotaen: it is your kingless igbo fathers who were living in little unorganised villages eating human beings that are stupid, you igbon , slaves , who told you ika was benin or have you ever seen an ika man saying he is benin? why dont igbos mind their business , you tried biafra , it failed in ika and we chased you people out , and today we have also distanced our selfs from igbos , we are ika ethnic group we are not benin and we are not igbo .if you like engage in your usual propaganda , that was how nigeria army was killing your people enmass and you were saying you have destroyed the army

some-girl:
Igbos in the south east didn't have kings/ monarchs at the time the Europeans came. There is a reason for the old saying "Igbo enweghi Eze".
If everyone around us including Benin, Kalabari, Efik/ Ibibio with whom we had dealings from time immemorial had kings, do you not think there is a reason we opted for a democratic government where the people governed the people rather than monarchy? Kingship wasn't alien to us, probably something we'd practised initially and decided it wasn't for us.
I personally don't see anything wonderful about having/ having had a king. I prefer the south eastern system of government, which was more effective. We didn't have many Igbos fleeing their lands for fear of a ruler like Binis did as I've gathered from the numerous accounts of Bini migration.

Ours was/ is a unique system. We've practised "democracy" for centuries, something Nigeria is struggling to get the hang of. It takes a great deal of organization and civilization to maintain such a system. It is a lot easier to comply with laws/ orders created by a ruler imposed on you than with laws/ orders created by an ordinary man such as yourself.
The Brits who supposedly introduced kingship to us now use our style of governance where they have several MPs, ordinary people elected by the people.The queen of England's role is now just ceremonial.
What does one need Obis, Obas etc who were stripped of their powers by a foreign queen for?
Quit going on and on about kingship like it's something to be especially proud of.

But yet according to Wikipedia, Ika people speak an Igboid language, which makes me think they are Igbo.

agbotaen: it is your kingless igbo fathers who were living in little unorganised villages eating human beings that are stupid, you igbon , slaves , who told you ika was benin or have you ever seen an ika man saying he is benin? why dont igbos mind their business , you tried biafra , it failed in ika and we chased you people out , and today we have also distanced our selfs from igbos , we are ika ethnic group we are not benin and we are not igbo .if you like engage in your usual propaganda , that was how nigeria army was killing your people enmass and you were saying you have destroyed the army

tonychristopher: I'm very proud of Anambra people, their
spirit to strive for success even amidst the
poorest governance in the country, the
power to control the economy even without
a white collar job and so many things. Their
foods are the best I've tasted so far. Let's
not even start talking about beautiful
cheeks because we might not leave here
this morning. Their dialect of Igbo is so
sexy and oh oh many other things. No
wonder my father couldn't look past there
for a very beautiful and humble woman.
Imo state is indeed the heart of Igboland,
with its possession of the majority of the
most beautiful ladies in the country. And
they are very liberal and accomodating. The
people from the other side of the country
who tonguelash them like my brother
above, always stand their in queue to look
for wives, leaving behind what they have in
their place. They sell their lands just to pay
a brideprice and then come to tell us how
accomodating they are
Imo babes are the best
Ofe Owerri tinz
Abia state is just like a carbon copy of
Anambra state, very hardworking and
resilient, and this is the home to several
locally made inventions. With proper
funding and good governance, invention
that will shock the world is likely to occur
here.
Enugu state, the capital of the East, with
many white collar destination. This is the
base of the most intellectual and also quite
beautiful faces. The only place that can
make you feel at home, away from home, if
you are an Easterner
Ebonyi state, the food basket of Igboland,
the base of agriculture. Their rice is the
most sought for in the nation. I love their
diversity, their dialect even if its difficult,
they also have many pretty chics, if you
doubt me ask OBJ's son
Delta North (Anioma) : A very beautiful
place with nice culture no wonder it is one
of Nollywood's location sites. Very good
people.
Rivers: What would I say here that wouldn't
be taken as a promotional exaggeration? I
mean, the state that has been keeping
Nigeria alive. What would have been of
Abuja without the spoils they are harvesting
from this state
Let me not go emotional now. This is the
entertainment hub of the East. The state
with the richest set of people in the nation.
Let me remind you that Agbani Derego (not
an Igbo) is from this state. And the greatest
of this all is that

agbotaen: 1. ok , dumb and mumu igbo man , i love yoruba people and benin people and i dont like most igbo people , because they are dumb and only useful as propagandists, and mind you charity begins at home , so i have to begin with ika and mind you ika is not a subtribe of igbo , our fathers have made that known in 1930 and 1967 when they declared they were not part of igbo tribe and that statement is quite clear and that led to ikas chasing igbos away from ika land. so get that , but u can engage in what your tribe knows best to do that is propaganda and no wonder your fathers said they had successfully wiped out nigeria troops , when in reality the nigerian army was kicking biafran ass , even in biafran enclave

Other ethnic groups, not your own

Adamskuty: lol! this is funny but calm down man

sarutobie:
Thanks for the insultive correction onye nkuzi ndigbo..I know y I purposely used ibo instead of igbo..did u have to 'correct' som1 with such negative remark? Do u think you can write,speak the igbo language more than me?..kpachara anya gi ebe ahu oo! O buru na onweghi ezigbo ihe I nwere ikwu na-ebe a,biko mechie onu ure gi!!..

Afam4eva: Let ma add mine.

Hausa/Fulani/Northerners: Oner thing I like about northerners that I don't think other ethnicities possess in record numbers is their kind nature. They are very kind and are always ready to help you out financially or otherwise. I also like the fact that they don't attach so much value on material things unlike their southern counterparts.

Edo/Urhobo/Isoko/Warri: These people have one thing in common. They are funny as hell and you won't be bored when you're in their midst. They also tend not to care about your ethnicity when relating with you especially the Warri ones.

Yoruba/Yoruboid: I like the fact that they take pride in their culture more than a group in southern Nigeria. They're also liberal in nature and welcoming. A Yoruba man can leave a stranger in his house and go out. The stranger can even go to his kitchen to take food and eat.

I love all Nigerian groups.

Afam bu Afam
Nwa Afor Nkanu Igbo

aljharem: I love the Igbos/Igboid because of there drive. They do with they believe in. Love their food as well, simply amazing. friendly and kind people as well. Even those on Nairaland like Igbo2011, Agbaworo, ChenyereN, freecocoa and co

The Hausas and fulanis are very friendly people as well. Very welcoming and fun loving. Never a dull moment around them . Likes of Fulaman, namfav and co have done well for the fulanis on nairaland.

The Kanuris are a special group, Just love their culture.

The Urhobos, Edos etc are just a funny set of people. They crack jokes wey fit make ur belle open. Friendly and open minded.

The Ijaws I must say are the most open minded people I have met real life. Fun loving and funny as well. likes of Ibime and co on Nairaland have painted a good picture of Ijaws.

If I was not Yoruba I would defiantly be either Ijaw or Fulani
