I say STFU!  Now you can only write one line!  You old cargo! Was thinking you were 19 or something.  Only to find out you are Nairaland's oldest member when your birthday popped up on my screen.  Useless geriatric pimping son of a bleaching she-goat! Because one high school drop out got impregnated by your 55 year old arse--you think you have a wife at home.  Thank God you do not have to masturbate anymore.  No wonder you pick up old ashis like your she goat of a mama.

You useless excuse of a pimp.  Male goat phocking slut of "Gboko"!  Bring out your head again. Bloody SOB! Bi-sexual orphan like you! Fools like us exist to deal with fools like you. Your father's land I guess.  Useless 419 yahooist!  You will soon end up in jail like your ancestors and generations unborn.

I say go to school.  That piece of IT shit of a certificate forged from Idumota tech will only get you around Idumota. PIG!

I agree 100% with you. On most of her posts - she writes - go to school - I think she is allowed the fact that she schooled abroad to get to her head and warp her thinking.

@ handsome

If being educated is like that of this lamentable, senseless and  illiterate almondjoy. I will conclude that the rape on our education system is really taking its toll on us.


@ almondjoy

I pity you now and always. you foul smelling excrement stain on a Sumo Wrestler's underpants.I wonder you and the stain which could be more nostril-offending? I can bet my old dead granny that you are a disaster to be near to.

my dad is a yoruba man, and he is really light skinned, same goes for his sis too, some of his relatives are albinos, so there re a lot of light skinned people from my dad's side,

my mum is from delta state, she is a dark woman, but she has sisters that her light skinned too,

i am light skinned, same goes for some of siblings,

so been light skinned, is not peculiar to a particular tribe in naija,

i am igbo and i am light, but what is the problem? if you are light or dark, it only becomes a problem when you are not satisfied with what you are hence you envy the lighter skinned person, if you are really happy with yourself then you would view people as individuals not as the tribe you dislike. as for that yeye almondjoy," it" is a disgrace to the human race and should be condemned to the bottomless pits of endless everlasting stinky dudu, that is what you call lack of home training. and for the record, i have awesome friends yoruba, igbo & hausa, and likewise i have encounted some jacked up folks from all three zones. who gives a rats ass if you are light or dark, it is who you are that matters so get over it, sometimes i don't see any difference between akata & naija, majority don't realise that together we can progress and not divided

To answer all your questions on why Igbo' have the highest occurence of light skin in the nigerian population resulsts in many genetic factors as well as enviroment that intermingle with each other to produce the outcome you see.

If a certain population carries a traiti say genes which cause lack of the production of melanin. .and that population breeds within its confined the result naturally would be the highest occurance of a cetain phenotypical trait  in that population

To pu it simple and short Igbos carry that gene and have passed it on to their descendants who in trun populate with  like individuals who carry those gene be it recessive or dominat. Genetics comes into play and boom the triat continues to manifest itself because of controlled breeding.


Wha actually causes the mutation of the gene and carries the trait is debately but enviroment, nutrition and adaptation play a major role in its sustainability.
