There is a recently trending fad all over nairaland now that the ibos use in consoling themselves that Yorubas don't go out of their enclave in the southwest and as such, are less exposed. I usually reel out in laughter at their folly. Yorubas dont usually do interstate because we believe our region to be better than any other in Nigeria unlike some people that sees the southwest especially trully well said, infact you've said it all.Lagos as their own London.

To give a few instances, there are lot of countries in south America where Yoruba culture and Language are most prominent, heck they even celebrate our festivals and revere our kings like the alaafin of Oyo for instance. What about benin republic, togo, ghana, south africa etc. In Benin republic for instance, you will find large communities of Yoruba speakers both of indegenous origins and those from Nigeria too. Even their president is of Yoruba descent. Even spain, all the way in Europe isn't left out.

Don't even let me talk about the UK scenario. Now law enforcement in Uk are trying to employ Yoruba speaking individuals in Uk cos of the sheer magnitude of Yoruba immigrants in the country. We are found everywhere all over the world and we live all over as prominent citizens respective of our hosts and we go about it quietly without chest beating.

This are just few mentions just from my observations and not even a comprehensive analysis.

I don't blab, l deal on facts and figures. This is a summary copy of drug peddles activities, yet you are showing me individual records.

Secondly, the amount of marijuana produced in Ondo alone, is far than what you get in the whole of the Eastern states joint together.
ARE THEY WRONG?

Bro thanks for this information I will save this in my archive, that's how we keep disgracing them wif facts

OkutaNla:


You think you are clever but you are a 419er like your fellow drug-trafficking kinsmen. So you are the only one with facts, and those links I provided don't count as facts? Go to the FrontPage and you'll see yet another thread about your kinsmen being busted for drug-trafficking in Australia just today. Run through those links again and maybe then your eyes will clear:

Who are you trying to fool?

Rabble rouse we are dealing wif facts from those that keep data not to recycle rubbish and post I can as well post another crimes links committed by your tribe duds, if you have credible statistics link challenge Him, that was how they disgraced you guys in human developments indexes in Nigeria wif facts.

Ojuju is packaged and exported at the okija shrine by igbo people

bilulu:

go to Yoruba line in all d mkt across d country even in Europe wat do dey sell?

vicadex07:


For your information it is only yiboss that blabs about yorubas being cowards out of painment. It is understandable sha. You guys are still suffering from PTSD as a result of your huge loss during the civil war.

Remarkable:


Whether its only the Igbos that are brave enough to call you cowards to your face is not the question. The question is "is it true"? and/or do people believe it?

Whoa! whoa! whoa! What a speech. Guy, me sef be proud Ohio State University Alumnus (proud Buckeye )-- matter of fact, I did my final High school senior year in the State of Ohio. Lived in Harlem, ATL, Orlando, Columbus Ohio, and San Leandro California , so there's nothing you can tell me about America -- spent 15 solid years in God's own country. You can beat your chest from today till tomorrow but that won't make your lies true about Igbo population strength in the U.S relative to Yorubas.

And if any ethnic group is an embarrassment to the Nigerian state, it is no doubt your kinsmen. No week passes without them being apprehended for drug-trafficking the world-over, so please save your sermon for Church on sunday morning.

vicadex07:


Lol...so you are indirectly trying to say we yorubas colonized the Igbos with the help of the british people abi? Well you might not be far from the truth because biafran people today are all over the internet agitating for their freedom from us, their slave masters

joeyfire:


Nope I was indirectly saying you are slaves of the west while we were just colonised by them. They fear us but know you are in their pocket

forgiveness:


Atleast some have agreed to associate themselves with their root,

or are you saying my Aunties,Uncles, cousins and their grandchildren are not Nigerians because they were born and grew up in America?

what says the Nigerian constituition?

Bros, every human being get root.

they said serena williams and venus williams are from badagry........Lolz!!!!

But all your brothers support and worship the guy and I believe he represents the interest of all igbos worldwide. Am I missing something?
