So what has a woman working in biafra to save your abandoned children to do with Yoruba?

It must be Yoruba fault that you neglected this kids and still our fault that a white woman left the comfort her home country to come and take care of your responsibility for you, ya?

it happened in igboland of Akwa Ibom why do ipod youth op always want to tanish yoruba's good name

KingSango:





I just wanted to prevent anyone from attaching this to Yorubaland because people are blanketing Nigeria. Nigerian culture is not Yoruba culture. Nigeria is a big o mess. Yorubaland is ruled in a way more progressive manner. And now I know where this sickness is coming from so I can prayer against such evils that are destroying Africans. Apathy.

ycat:
Oh ok. I didn't read the story or watch the video, I thought some people were trying to blame it on Yoruba as with everything that's wrong in Nigeria.

Btw, the topic doesn't do justice to the thread, for people with quick view, it will look like Yoruba have something to do with the condition of the children.

KingSango:


I changed the title so as not to offend but I noticed no one would've given an answer otherwise as not to offend the guilty. I don't like this whole idea of Yorubaland being always stuffed in with Nigeria. Nigeria is an array of cultures and different lands and rulers. People in the U.S don't understand that but Nigerians are being brainwashed with colonialism. The Roman state, that is the preferred political structure of the British, modeled after Rome is inferior to the political structure of the ancestors. All this things happening, corruption and such, wouldn't be happening if Oyo Empire controlled the land. Even Igbo land would be better ran as this is where this poor baby was abandoned and cursed into near death. I know no Yoruba woman could see that child going into the streets without a mother and just keep going. This is Igbos doing this. They have a much different belief than Yorubas. Yorubas should stick to their traditions and respect Baba Sango because Oba Sango makes sure Yorubaland is progressive and there's an effort to stop these types of atrocities from happening in Oyo state. But the people who blow up the market in Oyo I pray they are caught and punished.

I know you are not Nigerian, and as such do not know much about Nigeria's ethnic diversity. So your error in the bolded statements is forgivable. Also I see one mischief maker has already (mis)informed you that this happened in 'Igboland of Akwa Ibom'.

Akwa Ibom, where this happened, is NOT Igboland. Akwa Ibom lies to the east of Igboland. The ethnic groups in Akwa Ibom are Ibibio, Oron, Annang (sometimes collectively named Ibibioid groups - after the largest ethnic group there).

Again, this child was NOT abandoned in Igboland. Akwa Ibom is not in Igboland.
