Why Do You Hate The Igbos? by Nobody: 6:23pm On Oct 15, 2012
I have been on NL for sometime now and am astonished with the level of Hatred we Igbos receive from Nigerians especially the Yoruobas and I want to ask a simple question can someone give me a good reason why you hate igbos.

When North talks about breaking away everyone will support them but when igbos talk of breaking away, every Nigerian especially yoruobas will start shaking.

My fellow igbos don't you think we are been jealoused by other peeps expecially the yoruobas cause everything igbo makes them go mad

Yoruba people have an unfounded pathological fear for Igbos. Even the unborn yoruba pikin! grin grin grin
The truth is that Igbos are the only group in Nigeria that will not fall for their pranks and lies.

Secession is the golden road that leads to great success.

Many people are PAINED by the sight of Igbo success even in harsh times. They cannot bear the thought of a seceded Igbo nation advancing way beyond all African nations.

Don't belive the hype. I'm yoruba but when i first discovered Nairaland i thot Igbos hated Yorubas with a passion.....but i later realized that it was just a bunch of hate filled minority that tried to create that impression. If that really was the case, agberos wuld always look for opportunities to kill Igbo traders but u can see the number of Igbos co-existing peacefully with other tribes around you. The real Igbos are busy doin bizness with other tribes right now and vice-versa. If you look for hate, you will find it and it will end up killing you.

Why won't they hate us? They turn on their TV and there is Nollywood which is Igbo made. They switch on their radio and there's Bracket, flavour and P-Square. They switch to super sports to watch English league they see anichebe,mikel,nedum onuoha etc they went to market to buy things Igbos sell to them, they check Lagos IGR igbos constitute the highest tax payers.they buy walk about slippers they see MADE IN ABA. They enter INNOSON MOTORS. We dominate on every thing. They watch falcons its 95% Igbo. They hv sold all there fathers properties to Igbos.best student in all SW universities are Igbos while they can't even pass aptitude test in Eastern Unis.Jamb statistic we dominate. Igbos own d most beautiful houses in Lagos. MBGN Igbos even represent Oyo n some SW states.
It's like everywhere they turn, we dominate. Such a thing can induce real jealousy and animosity among people. So am not suprise.

I'd take 2 face, d banj, asha, ice prince, MI etc over all the ibo artists you mentioned. All the best student in SW are ibos, fcking liar. Bring out a list to prove that. Also why will it be difficult to pass an aptitude test in a SE university when they are not even among the best in the country and are all haven of cultists and lovepeddlers. Who in his/her right mind would wanna attend such schools. Nollywood is boring now since the day y'all made it an ibo affair. Only ibos watch it. Yorubas got their yoruba movies. Hausas for sure don't watch that sh1t. Hausa/fulani girls trump ibo girls in beauty a million times so that charade of MBGN is not to be taken seriously. Heck all your points are invalids/lies/cookup stuffs.
You are deliberately ignoring the main reason why everyone seem to dislike u. U don't know how to live with others. U seem to be cursed in that. For all ur supposed gifts, u lack diplomacy and courtesy. Too bad for u.

I'm yoruba and I "like" P-square nd Flavour (Igbo products). If there were hated in the west radio stations won't play their music. I'm frankly not crazy bout the footballers u mentioned but i know a lot of Yoruba guys that "Like" Mikel. Apart from used spare-parts, I'm still thinking of what else I buy from Igbo traders.

You see, nobody hates you guys but you keep giving reasons why they should. Its as if you want to be hated. Yes, I dislike people that walk around with an illusion of importance when they still have a lot of shortcommings. Pride.....over trivial things, it blinds you to you faults and fills your head with a false sense of superiority.

I don't think an Igbo person that is highly sucessful and made his money in the west would come out and say he's hated. Its probably the boy in his shop in computer village, Ladipo or Alaba that would utter that kind of statement. If yorubas hated u so much why would they patronize your biznesses? Wouldn't it be easier to attack you all and take over your biz. I don't know highly sucessful people that made it doin biz with only their tribe, Y'all better get over that "They hate us" frame of mind.

This is what Yoruba guy, Tola Charles said online today:

"To me, the Igbos may have embarked on their own silent revenge war on the rest of us, except that only the Hausa-Fulani have been checkmating them consistently by creating unrests in the North by which a cycle of 'start and settle' is ever revolving to ensure that they do not have that strong foothold. But here in the Southwest, the Igbos have dominated nearly all aspect of our lives.... in my brother Adejuwon's Ijebuland, they are buying landed /land properties and have become lanlords, same in Lagos, in Ibadan, even my own Oyo town the cradle of Yoruba, they are dominating everything. Festac town now 75% owned by Igbos. A travel from Mile 2 to Agbara Industrial estate along Badagry road will keep you thinking whether you are in Onitsha or what. And they are breeding like rats. I think we may have unknowingly been under the siege of the Igbos in Yorubaland."

I also believe that not every single Yoruba hates Igbo and vice versa. But there are elements amongst the Yoruba that resent Igbo. Mind you there are Yorubas in large numbers in the East too. There is no single day you have heard them in problem with Igbos, unlike in Lagos where area boys and OPC specifically target Igbos.

Gboss4sure, u and other few individuals from ibo land to nairaland are the reason why igbo recieve so much 'hate' on nairaland. Gboss4sure, the way and manner YOU, one-naira speak ill of nigeria, makes people to hate igbo outrightly cos they've discovered that u hate nigeria, their only country unlike u igbo that have an imaginary biafra alongside nigeria..other nigerians have just one country so hating nigeria amounts to direct hatred towards such believing nigerians . I'm a nigerian, i dont hate igbo...even as i dont like the fact that igbo single-handedly initiated d belief that 'hope lies in disintegration' and also taught nigerians how to hate each other along regional lines with their ballyhoo biafranic agitations. one thing is common among igbo; if you give them ALLOW , they will ask for ALLOWANCE.
