Guy is right! Igbos make up majority of the middle class. Yorubas are afflicted with unimaginable poverty, that is if you see malnourished yoruba kids queing up for beans you will cry.

And please don't mention Adenuga or Otedola, they are the 0.5%
chaai.. See smacking.. Easy guys! Abeg!

And yorubas sent to the farm where they can produce enough faeces to serve as manure for crops, while some of their women will be kept as s*x toys, you know Yoruba girls mature quick.
Hausa is a disgusted tribe, they can go join the us Army.after all they give birth like pig,so how will they appreciate human life.

Igbos on the other hand can send many of their kids there to join,so far money is involved,afterall money first,before human feelings.

Am proud to be a Yoruba. I represent my tribe.

They ve said it that Nigeria will disintegare by 2015. So this development does not come as a surprise.
Re: Why US Army Is Recruiting Hausa, Igbo by vislabraye(m): 11:59am On Nov 03, 2012
Super1759: I think its not on a negative side. Igbos are known to be warriors right from orgin and smartest among the tribes. Hausa peeps are fearless and can lay their lives for their belief. So it has something to do with their attitude to fight

What do you say about Tiv people then?

I hope the US is aware that they have a trait of RUNNING AWAY from the battlefield when the heat is tough.

Please shot the f.uck up…your just ranting ,because your weak tribe(yoruba) is not on their list.


This is a proof ,that yoruba's are weak. just imagine what yoruland will look like, if hausa and igbo team up and fight yoruba(weak vessels, only good in noise making)

This is not a new program or unique to the US Army. The CIA began recruiting native SPEAKERS of sundry African etc languages years ago especially after 9/11. Makes snooping on such people easier or what is the point of gathering all the world's voice calls / internet traffic if you can't understand the Yoruba, Yoruba spoken? Nothing to do with courage. Just need people who are happy to snoop on their own people or lead the enemy into their own land for a mess of pottage - US passport. Apparently they already have enough Yoruba traitors - I am Yoruba - so dont need any more in the current recruitment round.

Kslib: After reading all the comments on this thread,i came to a conclusion that one of our biggest problem in this country is "DIS-UNITY" and "TRIBALISM"..
I also discovered that a small white kid can make Some Nigerians kill each other in thousands... I have to admit,most of us are still suffering from inferiority complex,even though we dont want to admit it..
GOD is indeed a genius.. Ask me why? Ok,now i really understand why he use language to divide those people who wanted to build a very very long tower that will reach heaven in the bible.. Just look at how tribal insults are being trown at each other here,even our leaders are guilty of this... Look,the different languages we have have in this country is one of our biggest problem..

Now tell me why we should be called ONE NIGERIA.

To be frank the highlighted text will still remain there unless everybody have their own way.
ONE NAIJA my foot.

Horus:

Many people have alternative agendas. People in western countries study African web sites to see what they can get away with within mainstream media. Many Europeans are on Nairaland and other African web sites in disguise just to try and control the wave of information reaching our people. They use different screennames and start tribalistic threads on the forum to divide Nigerians. They master the art of manipulation.

you are correct.a good number of them have called me.though on a business level

Its a shame dat d igbos who r d most tribalistic set of human beings in nigeeria,u r happy to be mentioned along wit other tribes like hausa(boko haram),persia(iran), afghanistan(taliban) nd odas, this are tribes or people associated wit terrorism nd risk to us security,I guess d spate of kidnappin and ritual in the south eastern part of nigeria is sendin a signal to CIA to recruit more local speekers of terrorist tribes like igbo.I smell espionage

GAR3TH: Wow the amount of narcissistic people on this site is Unbelievable. The US army is recruiting them so they can be translators. Whether it be a future war theater, a wire tapping operation, investigations etc. Its not because they are "smart" or "warriors" like some Gullible people have said. Its so they have the right people to translate in a giving scenario, that's what all modern military do.
+1

1. The US Army recruits people with different set of skills.
2. Regardless of why you're recruited, you are first a soldier which means you fight ANYWHERE when needed.
3. Even the lawyers in the Army (JAG) with all their training can be drafted to the battlefield.
4. Like GAR3TH said, they need people to translate different languages when the need arises,
5. A soldier's unique set of skills will determine where they're assigned.

Lastly, I know for a fact that people are being monitored and just because you speak in your native language or in code does not mean that the people listening do not understand what you're saying. If you're speaking in Igbo when monitored, someone that speaks Igbo will translate whatever you say to the higher ups. There are people that their job is to sit all day and listen to people talking.

Someone is always listening and watching!
