U have comprehension problem the thread says famous not travelled..

Hausa and yorubas re the most famous tribe in west africa because they spread across west african countries as indegene not as a travelers.

Just like zulu thread spread over southern and eastern africa...


Indegenous igbos re only found in Nigeria..
Unlike hausas and yorubas that have indegenous citizen in togo,ghana,benin republic and ivory coast
And more, Yoruba has indigenous people in Cuba, Brazil, Trinidad & Tobago, etc

Thank God igbos are not even in the list cos the list looks like a list of primitive tribes.

To even make it silly, yoruba was made no1. When will you guys stop deceiving yourselves...


A yoruba site make a list and made yoruba the no1 most primitive tribes in africa. People who still complete with wide animals in intelligence...

Don't take it personal, since it's a primitive list then you shouldn't be pained. Pele but the attachment in your quote spoke of Igbos in Nigeria. Answer sonOfDevils question: 'apart from Nigeria, where else can we find indigenous Igbo?'.

@sonofdevil what's this restlessness I'm seeing through your posts?

Why dragging a tribe you know nothing about into your delusion

Why don't you go masturbate alone with your ilk alike and stop insulting Igbo before amadioha strikes you down where you stand

It's mental. Just because white racists described your great ancient nationalities as ''tribes'', doesn't mean you have to continue doing so...[/size]

LOL readgringrin

The Creoles are primarily Christian, but
some scholars consider the Oku community
of Sierra Leone as 'Creoles'. The Oku or Oku
Mohammedans are known as Oku[7] or Frobe
(Fourah Bay) Krio and are the descendants of
liberated Muslim Africans, who were mostly
Yoruba from what is today Southwest Nigeria
who settled in Freetown in the mid-19th
century.[8] Because the Creoles are a
mixture of various ethnic groups and the
Oku are mainly of Yoruba descent,

Igbos make up 30 percent of cameroonian population,

Equatorial guinea has igbo as an officially recognise language

Gabon as well as sao tome and principie has igbo also as more than 30 to 40% of its population.

In nigeria, after the indigenous etnic groups in every town, village and state outside the traditional igbo towns,Igbos make up the largest population...

Outside nigeria, igbos are the largest Nigerian diaspora.

Even 70% of black americans you see today have their root from bight of biafra...

Have you heard of igbo landing @op?

Even Nollywood which is the face of africa is igbo

By the way, where is the great ashanti from ghana on your list.

Gosh I hate yoruba hypocrisy, that is what is killing Nigeria
where are links for ur facts ....na facts coming frm a flahead u want make I believe?

Nigeria,a Country populated by educated illiterates

i wonder how famous means spreading into two or three countries

the dictionary defined famous as

fa-mous
[fey-muh s]
adjective
1.
having a widespread reputation, usually of a
favorable nature; renowned; celebrated:
a famous writer.
Synonyms: famed, notable, illustrious.
Antonyms: unknown, obscure.


You can asked around who knows the chaga tribe,hearing it the first time,so to me the list is Useless without Igbo in it

Some people here dont even know the meaning of famous.
being famous does not entirely depend on population, or how widespread an ethnic group is.... Also their contribution to the world culturally, spiritually, their history and civilizations, how promoted they are on television/how popular they are with tourists etc.

Basically, we don't even know the difference between famous and populous....With this mentality Africans will continue to be seen as inferiors!
And people were already celebrating the absence of the Igbo tribe....lol. The fear of the Igbo!

By the way where is Ashanti and Mandinka/Mande?
Weaklings!
