The facts: The Igbos and the Yorubas seem to have the greatest rivalry. The British colonialists described the Hausa/Fulani as similar to the Arabs, the Yorubas as the English men of Africa and the Igbos as the Jews of Africa. According to historical facts, people from the Yoruba tribe are the most educated followed by the Igbos. Igbo people on the other hands are the most innovative, go to Alaba International market in Lagos, these smart Igbo boys will make anything you want… They utilize their creative thinking to turn things around. People from the Hausa tribe are into agriculture and farming, Aliko Dangote, the richest man in Africa is an Hausa man from Kano. |

I really do not like contributing to topic like this because of what NL is turning to with the abuse/insult flying around,which,to me is totally unnecessary.I waited for someone out there to ask the question i have in mind but it seems that will not happen soon..I need an honest answer,though i have my opinion but it could be stereotype for all i care. I have assisted atleast 3 of my igbo friends to stand as "front" to rent house in lagos and Abuja within the last couple of years.Pls,why is it that landlords/house-owners are always scared to rent their house to igbo..In some street in lagos,landlord association will even hold meetings to warn members categorically not to give their house to igbo.Secondly,i also notice that those landlord that dont heed such warning most times end up with regret (not ALL of them though),but most of them,atleast to a large extent that could trigger a stereotype..Those that usually have dealings with agents in lagos and Abuja will agree with me of one usual question b4 they give you their house/room;"Shei the tenant na igbo",if u dare answer YES,u might not get d house..Why is that so?Is there anything the igbos are not doing right?Constructive answer pls,i really want to know. |
