The Chategories Of People Who Don't Want Igbos In SW/NORTHERN NIGERIA...#FACTS. by Thewrath(m): 12:33pm On Jul 16, 2016
Firstly,this is not tribal hating,am not responsible for how you interpret the article.

There are a few categories of people (NOT ALL) in southwersten and northern Nigeria who always spearhead the idea of igbos leaving SW and NORTH,you find them virtually everywhere,both online/offline rushing to tell you why igbos are in Lagos or Kano and why they should go,but the SW is one region that will not let a day go buy without reminding the igbos that they are not home.I will attempt to use this article to identify them.

The jobless:
ominile and agbero,(online/offline)these ones will take advantage of any crisis/riot to loot the shops of traders,a typical yoruba who has secured a good job won't be worried about igbos.

The loosers:
This group comprises of those who have sold their lands,regretting and are wondering how it was possible they didn't think of what the igboman has turned the land into before selling the land,these groups are usually pained and will seize the slightest opportunity to reclaim their lands.

The jealous:
these groups are not entirely poor,but just don't like the idea that they have to pay rent to an Igboman in their own land,or that an Igbo man owns a huge investment,they are quick to generalize and call him or her a drug dealer,and all sorts of character defamation techniques,to justify their assertion.you can imagine what this group will do if the opportunity to turn back the hands of time surfaces.

The lazy:
traders and touts make up this category.they don't like competition,For example,while I was in ogun state,if you go to the popular omida mkt or kuto mkt at Abeokuta,the traders do not like to look for change,you buy something of #50 and give #200,next thing you hear is "mi o ni change"(you begin to wonder if #200 is that much).
But a typical Igbo man or woman will look for change,some igbos don't even have shops but they always have all the good you came to buy(oso-afia).that's the hustling spirit,no need to be jealous.

The insecure:
This group comprises of the politicians and low self esteemed people,they are not happy with the idea that an Igboman heads/represent a constituency,forgetting that a great % of igbos make up Lagos,which was a former capital and a very diverse state.these groups are worried about the uncertainty of their future,with the presence of the igbos.

All these groups have one thing in common,they all scream one nigeria when it suits them.
I advice that if you fall into any of these categories,it's not too late,spend more time on how you will also make yours,instead of screaming igbos should leave SW and NORTH.

That's what am saying,the yorubas fought along side the north against igbos during the war,Infact,awolowo ended the war with starvation,forcing the igbos back into Nigeria,now the igbos are practicing one-Nigeria,and you keep wanting them to leave Lagos,should I call this a misplaced priority?

I dont think you can cherry pick amongst the goodies in the basket of true federalism, yoruba land belongs to yorubas. We all want development for all the constituent parts/regions of Nigeria.

So what is your message exactly? are you saying the igbos should continue to develop yoruba land to the detriment of igbo land?

shut up,awo paid you in your own coin,when yeebos and their northern masters were causing trouble in the western region,breaking the region into two,to reduce the influence of Yorubas, yeebos didn't complain,when Yorubas were refused appointment and employment in the federal civil service y'all were cool with it.
when zik refused secession clause, your joy was heaven bound.
yeebos love one Nigeria and awolowo helped to reinstate the undying love,you only shout Biafra when the tides are against you.

I wont say yorubas are jealous of Igbos, what is manifesting is the expression of pent up disdain of the igbos who hate yorubas irrespective of the hospitability of the former.

Igbos want to leave and agree with them in all ramifications. if any igbo wants to stay back in yoruba land, such an individual will do that subject to the laid down laws.

I just tire for them,you can find igbos everywhere in the world doing business successfully without hearing noise from the host communities,even in north,but the case of the yorubas are extremely shamely.
