Bro, what the hell are you Yammring about?

First of all, Mandarin is not a tribe but the official language of China and only native Han Chinese.

Secondly, the Land mass of China is as big West Africa if not bigger.

Thirdly, even as far back as 1952 in a very questionable census, the total numbers of igbos over Yorubas in Nigeria was very marginal. However, this doesn't factor in the 1966 war where a good number of igbos lost their lives.

In 2006 census, Yorubas were more the igbos even in Nigeria


Ps: Stop comparing a Language spoken as official language in China to the igbos

I'm on my way to Work. Later.

Save your rant.

You shout Equatorial Guinea. Which has only 1.3milling in population. And you people are only 33,500 as it 2015.

To the bolded above, you are just ignorant fellow. You use maybe, which means you don't even know, despite internet

Well I can tell you that as at 2014, Yorubas in Togo are 304,000
In Ghana 469,000 as at 2017.
In Benin, yorubas are more than 1.7million

While in Ivory Coast, as at 2014, Yorubas are like 120,000.

Compare that your population in any other African countries. Don't let us go outside Africa yet.

So Yorubas must be very large since they are scattered everywhere. Maybe they are as large as the Mandarin Chinese found only in China.

If you've told me a percentage of the Indian or Chinese population were Yoruba, I would have been satisfied with Yorubas being the largest ethnic group, but I don't care about Togo or Benin, cos they are way too small to think about.

The difference between Southwest and Niger state is more than the half of Anambra state.

I don't understand why people find it difficult to understand simple logic. Population isn't always a function of land area.

Saying SEast is only as large as Oyo is same as saying Niger state is also as large as SWest. making such statement with regards to population figures is an aberration cos in all, the landmass is not the issue on hand because if it were, Niger state will have almost same Population as SWest.

Oyo singularly does not have Igbolands population so why the comparison?

Iamgrey5:
Togos population is 7.8 million with Yoruba being 300,000 5.8%

Yoruba are also 12 % in Benin republic which is close to 2 million.

Google is your friend

So in all, 2.3 million Yorubas indegenous outside Nigeria is the reason why Yoruba should be the largest ethnic group in Nigeria or what?


You still didn't get my point did you. I am telling you that an ethnic group being only native to Nigeria doesn't prevent the ethnic group from being largely populated.

Hausa can be spread round the whole countries in West Africa or even round the whole Africa it doesn't make it larger than Mandarin spoken in only China.

So having a larger spread doesn't automatically make it the most populated.

Michael004:
Sure na, igbos are just 34million in population and are only found in Nigeria.

I find it difficult to wrap my head around comments like 'only found in Nigeria'. Nigeria for goodness sake is by far the most populated country on the continent.

Imagine saying an ethnic group isn't large because they are only found in India. or maybe only found in China.

Rivers State is approximately 7million people and is more populated than Togo which has 6.1million people.

What %tage of Togolese is Yoruba. i.e what fraction of 6.1million Togolese is Yoruba. maybe 20000 people is the reason we won't hear word.

TheGodlessGod:
they are clowns. They think population is an achievement even if it's a fake figure.

Their entire region is like one south west state (Oyo).

also the entire Southwest region is as big as one North East state (Niger state).


Anyone who believes Ijaws are more than 4million should have their head examined.

If you're the one in the pix, thumbs up.

Lift all your useless codes and throw them inside gutter.

Truthfirst96:
It is no longer news that Rivers people are not happy with the governor. Many see him as a dictator who doesn't take the people's interest to heart.
To be honest, the governor wants the very best for the state but the way and manner he has gone about it has sent wrong signals to the people of the state. There have been major communication lapses between the government and the people.
For instance, Rivers State has over 120 covid-19 cases but many here do not believe it's true even when there was report of a mysterious death in bonni island that killed over 10 persons in 3 days.
In terms of projects he has not performed woefully neither has he been exceptional in this regards compared to his predecessor. It's true the country was in recession when he took over but currently there are 5 flyover projects going on in Port Harcourt as well as other projects.
At the moment, there are vacancies in most ministries in the state. In the last five years, many workers have gone into retirement. Recruitment that cuts across various ministries will be a major boost in creating a lasting legacy for not just himself but for his party in general.
Only time will tell if the governor will surpass his predecessor and make Rivers State great again. It's not too late

Lienus, name the 5flyovers under construction..

You and this your girlfriend..

But how will enter Rivers State nah, considering that the state boundaries remain closed. Don't tell me you also engage in bribery and corruption!!!

Podakejol:
Oyo stae alone is 28,000 km2. South west total landmass is 79,000km2. So use your head for once

You don't seem to be a critical thinker. Must everything be written for you in Black and White?

What he is inferring is that same way Oyo state is almost a large as the entire SEast, Niger state is as large as entire SWest. So nothing spectacular to brag about. If you think Oyo has the number to Igbos, Niger state has the number to Yorubas..

Thank me later.

Seerade029:
Arguing with you is a waste of time. Cos Nnsuka is just like a local government in Ibadan.
The whole South East is a bit bigger than Oyo state.

I heard Niger state is Bigger than SWest.. can you confirm??

PortHarcourt1st:
Kinematics come receive employment lol

You've been making Nairaland dull this past few days . Peeps are missing your creative side . Keep it flowing na. Post something I'm bored. Biko nu

pazienza:
Oh! So you are a biased Ikwerre man, with bias leaning towards Igbo your maternal homeland.

I bet you won't survive in Ikwerre forums if you try to show you are remotely pro Igbo, they will devour you like hungry lions.

Your people are something else. I'm beginning to develop Ikwerrephobia myself to counter their Igbophobic nature.

No need for dat.. Except maybe it's your nature. Many people are misinformed and misguided. Also most Ikwerres hardly travel. A travel to SWest for some months changed my views. If they travel to SWest or North, they will learn to love their immediate neighbors.

Enough said.

****

Chino, you don escort me reach here?? chukwu mere gi ebere!!!

pazienza:
Etche currently say they came from Bini too.

If you dare call them Igbos now, nah war o!

Una don spread the Bini virus give them.

Oyigbo is the battle ground now for Ndiigbo. The Bini virus is spreading there too

Etche people are easily swayed by Ikwerre. they hardly have direction except directed by Ikwerres. I shouldn't be saying this, but it's the truth.. they always want to look good before Ikwerres.


Oyigbo Sha na IPOB ground, no shaking there

pazienza:
Your brothers in "Ikwerre Rant HQ" a new facebook page for Ikwerres have already started by bashing Igbos there.
Are sure na Ikwerre na Igbo bu ofu? Because the type of Igbophobic aura I'm perceiving in that your new facebook page, e be like say NL is even better.

My grandma from Imo state.. which mouth I wan use become Igbophobic. Ikwerre intermarry Igbos alot na.. I'm shocked to learn people display hate on FB with their real names, friends and photoshoots..

Shocking.

Rivers State carry 2nd.
Blood of Jesus..

pazienza:
There is no Izzi man, no Ezza man, no Nkanu man, no Isu man, no Asa man, no Ndoki man, no Oguta man, etc on the list.
Was Ikwerre the only Igbo clan in Igbo land then?
Etche your neighbors were there, like wise Ogba. All of una nah brothers, isn't that good enough?

Etche na Igbo na.. No be there I master Igbo language? for Umuechem..

Abeg, pazienza give me some of those historical books and documents make I follow you dey read na.. Biko nu.. okwa i ma ndi Ikwerre na ndi Igbo bu ofu.
