Say no to Tribalism

In as much as I detest any form of ethnic bashing and tribal jingoism, its usually comic relief when I read all these posts. if only Nigerians can be a fraction as creative in science and technology as we are in cussing, we'll be much better off

EPIC!

Is this supposed to be funny

Ok

I always shudder when I see tribal remarks especially from youths.so we want to start off where our fathers stopped yet we always claim we are more exposed than they will ever be.all the education we had is useless if we keep being archaic. if I should ask,is there any tribe better than others what you have is better or worse human being and its in every tribe or race.
I also blame all the mods here on Nairaland all of you must bow your heads in shame,so quick to ban these people who say things the way they see it but allow lewd and tribal remarks and pix to reign here.Nairaland was advertised to be educative but everyday you open a thread to see a tribal bashing even the OP's change true stories just to accommodate their own tribal feelings.
We want better government in this country and how is it possible if the youths have these nepotistic attitude in them,how will our future be.
your tribe is not better neither mine so you guys should grow up and act like those in 21st century

You're so right on that. If only we can channel the energy we use in bringing One Another down into more positive things. We would have been a first world country by now.

OPCNAIRALAND:
To the rhesus comparing regions, Southeast is the least valued region anywhere in Nigeria.

Here is how to compare development in real economic terms. The Nigerian currency, Naira, is a common denominator and so holds value whether you are in Enugu or Ibadan. But we know, based on migration and investment numbers that Ibos are the ones migrating and investing in other regions because the quality of social living in these other regions is superior to that obtainable in Iboland. Therefore assuming we have individual and different currency based on the distinct economies of each region....so that Yorubaland has its own currency, lets call it Alare pound, Ibo has its own currency, lets call it Biafran pound, .....it will take a million Biafran pound to buy one Alare pound at exchange.

What this means is that an Ibo in Yorubaland is far much valuable than an Ibo in alaibo by a million. This is so because security, commodity market, social justice, liberty, entertainment....and everything else instituted in West by Yorubas is a million times better when scaled against same criterias in East. This explains the migration and also the mindset to accept being a lower class untitled citizens in Yorubaland than the privilege of pedigree status back home in Alaibo.

This is a true measure of class in Nigeria.

A lie may travel for a thousand miles, but it takes just one step of truth to catch up with it.

The voodoo analysis above can only exist in the phantasy world of ewedu eaters. It's no longer news that Yorubas thrive mainly on an atmosphere of lies, falsehood and propaganda.

If the abysmal thinking of the op that assembled the garbage above holds any water why are the Yorubas most vocal against Biafra

Yorubas have used every known tricks to attempt to quench the call for a separate state of Biafra. Many mischievous Yorubas have taken to the internet camouflaging as South-South people and South-East people, feigning undying fake love like never before and putting forth baseless theories why the idea of Biafra should not be allowed to fly.

Recall that in the heat of their numerous nightmares frustrated Yorubas have created numerous threads on Nairaland in their desperate attempts to stop Biafra agitation. Due to the resounding responses they received on such threads Yorubas had to quickly call for such threads to be deactivated! Fact#

If at all Yoruba economy is better than the Igbo economy why are it's people worse hit by the dwindling crude oil prices

If Yoruba economy was in any way superior to Igbo economy Ekiti State will not deem it wise to send its citizens to Aba in Abia State for vocational training, to equip them to be able to create wealth for themselves and improve the economy of the State just like Eastern region.

If Yoruba economy was superior to that of Igbos why is hunger ravaging its people to the extent that concerned individuals from other parts of Nigeria had to come to their rescue, donating cash and food to ensure that they survive the economic crunch occasioned by low crude oil revenue?

And through all this period there was no cause for alarm amongst the Igbos in Igboland. Not even in Abia State where the civil servants were being owed their salaries, courtesy of the State's strong informal sector unlike Osun State where the phantom internally generated revenue (IGR) was a lie of fabricated figures
to massage the egos of Yoruba Kingdom.

T.A Orji of Abia State was labelled as the worst governor in the last dispensation by Igbos on NL and even in the outside world. Nobody criticized TA Orji and his failure in Abia than Igbos. Yet mischievous Yorubas kept lying to themselves of the sterling performance of Rauf Aregbesola of Osun State who was as bad as T.A.

Yoruba media propagandists churned out statistics of how Osun State has blossomed to being able to do without the free handouts from federal government (courtesy of the crude oil wealth from another man's backyard) and yet before could say JACK the State became comatose and bankrupt.

Of what good is the big size of Oyo State when Ebonyi State is more developed than it? For the myopic Yorubas with poor geography of a place they call their 'country' the smallest State in size in Igbo land is about 3 times the size of Lagos State.

Find below the desperate attempts in the past by mischievous Yoruba voodooists to portray Yoruba economy as good:

1. "I don't need federal allocation to pay workers" - Rauf Aregbesola (ThisDay Newspaper, Nov 28, 2011)

2. Osun's Monthly IGR Jumps from N300million to N1.6billion in 3 years.

Yorubas accuse Igbos of being too smart in business and therefore should not be trusted. The implication is that they unconsciously accept the Igbos as having superior IQ and business sense.

And when credible institutions publish the results of their studies showing Igbos as chart-toppers Yorubas begin to search for straws to hold onto to fault the research. You wonder why they become so rattled and agitated at such results.
Business is all about smartness and no dullard or book-theory person can do better in a business than a person with native intelligence. 

Mental superiority makes you want to find your own space. 
Mentally dull people hate radical changes and want to just keep doing the same thing.

There is a correlation between Igbo achievements and 21 billion dollars remittances back into Nigerian economy on yearly basis as evidenced by statistics from Western Union. A less backward or less enterprising group of treasury looters cannot achieve such feat.

The Igbo youths are born into a society where they always have to think fast else they will be like Yorubas who live on free handouts from Abuja. Igbos always try as much as possible to excel in their various pursuits in life. Little wonder you see many Igbos competing on the world-stage.

Without government connections and patronage, Wale Tinubu, Jimoh Ibrahim, Femi Otedola, Mike Adenuga etc. of Yoruba tribe will be nowhere today, and that's why every now and then you would hear them being linked with one financial crime or the other.

Nigeria economy assumed a downward trend when the Yorubas and their Northern co-travellers acquired all Nigerian companies by virtue of indigenization decree of 1972. But they could not manage the companies instead they ruined, defrauded, liquidated, bankrupted and destroyed all the companies - that was the mother of destruction of Nigerian economy! The swindlers indeed bastardized the Nigerian economy. 
And to divert attention from their ineptitude and crass looting of the treasury Yorubas would use illogical reasoning to attempt to bamboozle other people while pointing accusing fingers elsewhere!

After more than 40 years, despite the stolen wealth, the Yoruba land cannot be said to be transformed and be one of the enviest in the world. None of their cities could be likened to, say the least, Johannesburg!

Inspite of the tortuous journey the Igbo man passed/passes through to achieve success the criminal system in place and the Yoruba gang will not allow the Igbo man be. Yorubas are bitter and angry at the success of the Igbos, that they use any given opportunity at their disposal to remind Igbos that they are the ones who accommodated them and therefore they should abide by their dictates, whims and caprices, including being coerced to vote the candidate of the host's choice in election.

With all the disadvantages Igbos faced and still face after the 1967-70 they rose from grass to grace and Yorubas are not even ashamed to compare Igbos with treasury looters. 

There is no law on this earth that prohibits free movement of people and participation in government. It takes a man of courage to venture into an unknown terrain and conquer it. The Chinese are doing it. The British, Portuguese, French, Italian, Spanish, Japanese etc. did it. If the great Roman Empire hadn't ventured no one would have known they were great. Today many American businesses are located offshores in China, Saudi Arabia, Tokyo, United Arab Emirate and they are still venturing out to conquer unknown terrains.

For you to be great you have to venture out of your comfort zone. This is the true character of the ever industrious and peace-loving Great Igbo Nation. As of today it would be an understatement to aver that Igbos control 50% of the economy of Lagos and its environs. You see, it pays to venture out instead of lazing around touting and disturbing the peace of the society.

That Truefact dude and Ibotjaycob ehn, they treat response as if they are writng an exam..

exxell:
Does it remove the fact that Awolowo died like a rat? Or the very fact that Yorubas are diabolical and ritual experts? Does it remove the fact that Yorubas are inbreeders and rape and finger their young ones? Does it remove the fact that Yoruba land was overun by the Igbos during the initial stage of the Biafran war before you guys got help from Britain?..... Quote me anywhere and die like the basstard HID Awolowo who is rotting in hell right now.

Wow!!! This hate will ruin all you low lifers, FYI you lots can go on with it. Everywhere around the world your people are known to be the most despicable living being. Son go read about the battle of ore and how your forebears were pounded like sissies. I wish to read about you in the papers soonest doing the drug peddling thing to south east Asia. Hid died at a ripe age of 99, worry more about the pain and agony you will face from the Taiwanese hangman noose.
