I think I have to make something clear to everyone;

There is a big difference between being a trader and being a business owner. A business owner is a great thinker who builds a powerful business that creates opportunities for traders.

An example of a business owner is Seun who created Nairaland; traders are the people that promote other things they do and get contacts on Nairaland.


Other examples are Folurunsho alakija, Rasheed Ladoja, Mike Adenuga, Arisekola Alao and the likes who created great and profitable businesses that have stood the test of time and have enabled people from other tribes and countries to create their so called "businesses" which i call trades


That is what most ibo pipu dont understand; they keep shouting they are hard working pipu- sure they are-; but the fact is that most Yorubas are the ones that create what they work hard on!

If we dont produce, what will you people buy and sell? And if you people dont work hard to distribute and promote what we produce how are we going to remain in business?

In summary, God created us together for a purpose, and that is to help each other. Stop finding faults with other tribes and Nigeria will be a better place to live in.

Long live the Federal Republic of Nigeria

Rilamaka: This post almost brought tears to my eyes as I was once in love with a yoruba corper. Distance played a major factor but we are still very good friends.

I think the good relationship between the Igbos and Yorubas surpasses the bad relationship, because the bad relationship seems to exist solely on social media platform, while Igbo - Yoruba forged relationships are raking in millions everyday, this is evident in our Nigeria entertainment industry.

Only sad, hateful, failed people tend to curse each other out on social media.
God bless

Mor0n, who gives a phuck if you are half-chinese? You are just another dim-witted low IQ e-diot. Exam malpractice is very common across all parts of the country, it isn't peculiar to a particular tribe. Mor0n, I served in Ebonyi state (an igbo land) and the level of exam cheating in that state will make even the devil weep.

I personally don't have any problem with the yoruba set, I don't even have problem with any set, the only thing is - I have lived amongst the yoruba people , i speak, i write to a reasonable extent, i even watch dia movies - so I can boldly say i gat love for them. My best friend is yoruba, she was even my Chief bridesmaid and she came all d way from Lag to d east for my wedding, she ended up being more active than all my igbo friends put together. You need to see the smile on my face when i stumble on a corp member who happens to be a yoruba, i just av dis instinct to help the person immediately. If every1 were like me, this tribal ish would be so dead by now. I am very sure if i had my uni edu in the West, i would have settled with a yoruba man sef...no time abeg.

Instead of making noise about how good you are at business please name one business,JUST ONE in Nigeria that the IBO is known for all you will hear is Slok INNOSON,Coscharis and other rubbish that no one feels the impact of in Nigeriaor buying and selling. They keep telling you Onitsha market is the largest in the Milky Way and other vainglorious bullcrap
NO manufacturing no innovation and definitely NOTHING on the stock exchange. It is all about going to China and Taiwan to load containers of fake parts and toxic drugs
Let me tell you about real businessmen Like Seun Osewa and Femi Otedola and Mike Adenuga or Chief Obagun of Onward Press

What does the IBO MAN PRODUCE IN NIGERIA apart from counterfeit things.
There is just one word to describe Ibo busines : PERIPHERAL.

These diametrically demented cacophonous toilet tissues called igbos always ululating about the Great Yorubas. Nya miri Gwongworos! Ojukwu, your acclaimed igbo lord and the greatest igbo of all time was a coward just like every other igbo and he took to his heels dressed as a female (What an height of cowardice!). The fact that igbos are fools is highly substantiated and corroborated by the fact that someone that deceived millions of igbos into being slaughtered like chickens in Biafran war (who himself ran away dressed like a woman) was being celebrated when he came back. Also during Abacha regime of tyranny, coward Ojukwu kept his mouth shut throughout. He only found his voice again when OBJ became the president. Before they left, the Colonial British Army rightly observed, that the Yorubas are the most militarily intelligent in Nigeria, especially when it comes to developing disastrously destructive military strategies. "Brain is better than brawn" Biafra was actually initially winning the war (igbos read your own history) until the Great Awolowo(a typical Yoruba Man), the ununiformed General, stepped in on the side of Nigeria and came up with the intelligent military strategy that gave Nigeria Victory over Biafra. "In warfare it's all fair". You know that Hausas only hear go! Just give the military order, they'll carry it out to the letter. Even long after Biafra had surrendered, the killing of igbos continued untill Awolowo, the greatest Nigerian Generalissimo of all time, intervened again and told the Military to allow the remaining igbos to be alive. So, you senseless igbo mofos still have the to thank the Yorubas today, understand?! "Next time you see a Yoruba man, duff your hat and bow before him!"

Blockus: OP,

I find this thread offensive to ndi Igbos. angry

We dont have any relationship whatsoever with the Yorubas. angry

They have proven to be untrust worthy since the beginning of time. They are two faced, back-stabbing and maliciously wicked and have demonstrated it time and time again. Lets not forget that the genocidal aspect of the civil war where food and medical supply were cut off from the East was not suggested by the Northerners but by a Yoruba man. Lets not even forget that there would not have been a war per se if the Yorubas had stuck to their end of the bargain from the Aburi accord held in Ghana.

The Yorubas are not trust worthy at all and thats the root of our problems in Nigeria. Atleast the Hausas have shown us where they stand from the very beginning.

I do however agree with the OPS comparison of the Igbos to the Germans and the Yorubas to the French, seeing as the Germans are innovative and brave at war and the French are cowardly and docile in general.
These are the type of tribal bigots spoken about. My Igbo bros, thats if u r one, sheath ur sword, its all in the past.

Roman empire fall and rebuild. When are Yorobo going to reclaim and rebuild Oyo empire?
Ilorin is still under occupation remember.

We had an empire that spanned centuries. Igbos had nothing. No empire, no civilization. If not for the white man that set boundaries, iboland would have been absorbed by the Fulani empire.
