A yoruba girl in my aunt's office used a special padlock to lock the AC protector in their MD's office. Whenever the AC is on,the juju spreads round the office and everything said,will be in her favour. Until they employed an NYSC member,who was a papa(leader of pentecostal corpers and a prayer warrior) and a yoruba boy too who noticed it,called everyone in the office,prayed and removed the padlock. The girl confessed and was sacked.
Their MD is also a yoruba man but half German since then he doesn't employ yoruba girls who are not born again.
The office is in Utako not far from mountain of fire for those who think I made up the story. I can tell you the company name too.


chuxyz: chai! Dem don carry juju enter city. Those people no deh fear to carry juju go another man's land. Yorubas Marketing and distributing juju since 932BC.

wonders shall never end but yorubas want to use juju and end it. Anywhere they see igbos they will spring up out of jealousy. Inferiority complex na ihn deh worry them. They can't thrive in our land whilst they are jealous we are conquerous and no respecter of foreign land when it comes success and breakthrough

maestroferddi: We cherish class. We made Nollywood tick. Why create numerous genres in poorly-rated channels hardly watched by viewers? An average non-Nigeria has no business tuning in to the sheer mediocrity called indigenous channels: they would plump for Nollywood where Igbo cultural depiction naturally holds sway. Even in terrestrial stations, how often do you see indigenous movies get prime time screening? It is still English based/Igbo content movies that carry the day while your agbomagbe films only get a look-in in the dead of the night when most viewers are having sweet dreams. No local champion stuff... Well watch that chap Phyno seize the moment in the Nigerian music firmament. Igbos, a darn tough art to follow...



NO NEED TO BLAB WITH YOU

Data in 2011 from the Nigerian Films and Videos
Census Board (NFVCB) indicated that 1,743 and
1,234 movies were respectively registered and
approved. The percentages produced in 2010 in
the main languages were 44 percent English, 31
percent Yoruba, 24 percent Hausa and 1 percent

Proudly igbo!!!



But as a full blooded igbo, we don't feel intimated by anything especially when we are about to say the truth!!



Even here i won't be intimidated by anybody esp. my igbo brothers when i drop this bombshell.


How can you give us only the good sides??
Every great thing in this world has bad sides.




Igbos are discriminatory in nature, we look down on people who comes from different ethnic group esp the northerners.
Even among ourselves, we regard more of people who comes from the same state or hometown as us.
Someone from anambra or imo will discriminate someone from enugu or ebonyi and vice versa.
Even among us, we're not fully united.
When igbos are gathered in a group, first question usually is, 'what's your name and where do you come from' they will defo use that against you or for you when giving out positions or goodies.


Nevertheless


Igbos are great, always prosperous and the heartbeat of this country.

Yes, Dangote is the richest man in Nigeria but being the richest man in a region that more than 90 percent of others wallow in abject penury does not suffice.
The Igbos in Nigeria have the highest standard of living in Nigeria. An average Igbo village has better houses and amenities than any other region in Nigeria.
There are more billionaires in Igboland than any other nation in Nigeria.
Who's giving u those analyses! U mean is only in ur village u have better houses#laffining in chiness# and ur billionaires are not accounted for? Do u knw how many mouth dangote is feeding in ur villages? Except if u dnt ur village is inside sambisa forest
