Some people are really funny,The mere fact that Igbos were stll naked until 1921 speaks volume about their chronic barbarism!It is really appalling that anybody would compare them with the Yorubas who were never naked in their history!

Obamaofusa:
I think you should stop stressing this,it is hurtful especially to young Igbos and I am imploring our Igbo brothers to stop opening threads like this on a public forum

Nothing to do with chocolate or skin colour so don't get chippy with me
NwaOvaltine NwaSardine are those children sired by aboki soldiers in Biafra with Eboe mothers after the war .The hungry mothers formed relationship with these soldiers who always had plenty of sardines and Ovaltine. The soldiers eventually went home leaving thousands of bastards with no fathers. They were called NwaSardine NwaGeisha NwaOvatine and so on. I hope this helps you understand your origin

Their great ancestor built great cities as what they pride now as their heritage/brown roof. Fine, lets agree and praise their ancestors for their hard work and a job well done.

what of the present generation? what are they doing to reduce the wave of hunger, unemployment,laziness and hooliganism that has ravage their towns

Respect to all the hardworking yorubas. The mike adenugas,otedolas,oba otundeku,seun etc but i think the culture of depending on the central government/helper (herdsMentality) and that annoying sense of entitlement has to be revisited, cos it is doing them no good.

Again the igbos have been ancient traders, with the advent of colonialism and white collar jobs, they never abandoned their trade. that is why you see they have a very large and domineering presence in the informal sector and they have specialized in all sort of trade but my western neighbor who are farmers abandoned farming for white collar jobs. Everybody wants to go to school but not all want to farm, infact that is the beginning of the decline of the Yoruba economy and the rise of laziness and unemployment

Bro, evidence doesn't hide. If you come first in your class, no matter how the person who came second brags, records won't change to show his name as the first.

Records
Evidence? From a book written notice by an ignorant white man who wrote about an
EBOE EMPIRE
WHICH EBOE EMPIRE?where ?
Reading it one can tell it is rubbish but what is interesting is the mind that thinks
Na OYINBO WRITE AM IT MUST BE TRUE WITHOUT QUESTIONING WHO EXACTLY THE AUTHOR WAS.
There are thousands of Nigerians across the world.Imagine if we started writing books about other people to state who is more honest,hardworking etc
Will they seize upon such books as evidence of anything? I doubt it .Can't you reason at all? .

You diabolically claim to meet the white man before us, yet the white man called us almost civilized, and called you barbarians. ..

You diabolically claim to have free education and studied above us, yet statistics showed we far above you in education

You diabolically claimed to be high IQ people, yet all test showed we are above you

You diabolically claimed we are canibalistic, yet it is evident that you are ritualist and human head miner.

You diabolically claim sophistication, yet it's evident you cant stay on you own or rule yourselves

You diabolically scheme with your evil master and destroyed us, yet statistics showed you are not better than us

You diabolically stole our wealth, yet it's evident you are not richer than us

You diabolically claimed to be the first in all things, yet it's evident lack behind...

You diabolically claim to be championing for a restructure Nigeria, yet we are the only people protesting for what we believed in

You diabolically claim indispensable, yet you are nothing with your master and can't rule champion a separate identity and diabolically hate those who champion a separate identity

My afonjo people, you are nobody but diabolical hater

chrisj2:


I do not appreciate the way you have put your points across but even as a Yoruba person, it is hard not to concur with the overall sentiment.

We Yorubas will only command respect if we have the guts to declare that we want to go our own way. Even if it does not succeed, we have always come across as the green snake in the grass - the so-called clever and diplomatic ones. But in true fact, we are just scared and good ass lickers. We are like the Brits!

mercyville:
You have not shown Yoruba being unclad my man!A woman bringing out her child in the market thereby exposing her body does not depict anything and the jebu women were not tagged Yoruba women like your Igbo women who were still learning how to wear clothes even in 1921---chronic barbarism I must say! Yorubas had series of handwoven clothes that they developed by themselves but even Igbo men tie wrappers like women!Do not show women protesting!Let us see Yoruba women or girls walking unclad with links!

On the poverty rate stats. That stat was conducted by Oxford university and not by UN.

A better way of measuring a people over all living standards is the measurement of attainment of the MDGs.
From the available data so far, SE beat SW overall on the MDGs attainment.

https://www.google.com.ng/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=http://nigerianstat.gov.ng/pdfuploads/2014%2520MDG%2520Survey%2520Report.pdf&ved=0ahUKEwiy--aztpzTAhVEIsAKHa8GDU0QFggfMAM&usg=AFQjCNG9ewMaPZsKEKlKlDMzrGlZdsHxYQ

PROGRESS INDICATORS:  ERADICATION OF EXTREME POVERTY AND HUNGER: Extreme poverty and hunger has been prevalent in the African continent for decades. In view of this, the MDGs sought to halve between 1990 and 2015, the proportion of people who suffer from hunger. For this report, the prevalence of underweight in under-five children was measured. In 2014, the percentage of underweight prevalence was 25.50 per cent which is a positive decrease by 6.9 per cent in comparison with 27.40 per cent in 2012. This shows that there is a lower prevalence of underweight children in 2014.  ACHIEVING UNIVERSAL PRIMARY EDUCATION: The target is that by 2015, all children (boys and girls) would have completed a full course of primary schooling. The indicator for this target is the net attendance rate. In 2014, the net attendance rate for primary school was 68.70 per cent which represents a 3.2 per cent decrease from 71.00 per cent recorded in 2012. Secondary school net attendance ratio was 57.4 per cent in 2014, recording a minimal increase of 4.7 per cent from 54.80 in 2012. Primary 6 (six) completion rate was about 74.00 per cent in 2014 which dropped by 15.6 per cent when compared to the 2012 figure. There was also a slight increase in literacy among young women by 0.15 per cent from 2012 to 2014. The survey revealed that the proportion of boys and girls attending primary school declined in 2014, while those attending secondary schools increased minimally. However, primary 6 completion rate recorded a slight decline in 2014

Deny all you want, those are pics of Ijebu women, unless you are saying Ijebus are no longer Yorubas and in one of the Yoruba precolonial pics posted here, one can see unclad Yoruba women with exposed breasts.

Igbos had the Akwete clothing industry in Ndoki Abia state. Google is your friend.

And I quote your false stats, which is even old. Mind you it's actually focus on Africa. And besides, no stats nor figures was stated according to your Google stats, here :
