From my experience and observation over the years, I thought I should give a breakdown of popular tendencies among Nigerians living abroad according to tribe:


Igbo people - Lovely set of people, very very hard working (most hard working among Nigerians), they can clean, wash plates or do any hard job thrown at them. Their average lifespan abroad is 10 years as majority of them always return back to Nigeria at the long run to enjoy the fruit of their hard work.
Popular crime among this tribe includes DRUG PUSHING and INTERNET FRAUD in that order.

Yoruba people - Wonderful set of people, good friends to have as they always enjoy and engage you in long conversations and gossips, if you don't have a Yoruba friend, get one fast as they make good companies in lonely countries. Very good workers, love to attend parties and have a good time. Life span abroad - 30 years, the Yoruba's love living abroad so much, it is usually very difficult for them to return to Nigeria. Popular crime abroad - Internet fraud, fake pastors and prophets, JUJU.

Edo/Benin - Good people to hang out with especially the guys, they are very welcoming and love education. Good workers like their Yoruba brothers. Lifespan abroad - LIFETIME, the average EDO/BENIN person will rather die abroad than return to Nigeria permanently. Main crime abroad - PROSTITUTION, JUJU.

Calabar/Akwa Ibom - Lovely set of people with chilled out life style, good company to have especially if you are a guy that like to browse around the town in search of women. Their women are highly domesticated, good cooks and they take care of their men. Average workers. Lifespan - 10 years. Crime abroad - Not known for any major crime, although some level of internet fraud have been reported.

Ijaw, Urohbo, Ishekiri - Best set of friends to have if you love to chill and have a good time. Extra laid back attitude. Love to argue about Nigerian politics. Not the best workers out there. Highly intolerant to maltreatment. Lifespan abroad - 3 to 4 years - to live successfully abroad you must be able to do menial/hard jobs for a while until a good job come along, however, these group do not usually wait around for too long.
Major crime - No known crime, possibly due to low percentage outside Nigeria.

Hausa/Fulani - From observation, these group of Nigerians are mostly isolated abroad as they are hardly accepted fully by other Nigerian tribes. Not much is known about them in the western world apart for their huge love for religion. Lifespan - rarely last longer than 2 years abroad. Crime - No major crimes apart from a few incidences of religious bigotry.

Major problem among EVERY TRIBE - Refusal or reluctance to willingly return money or loan.

This time i am #TEAMYORUBA


Meeehn, hats off to these ppol ooo...I can attest how great these ppol are i met handful of them and they are SIMPLY THE BEST


Yaaaaaz babies!

up we...... Yorubas are knowledgeable and hard working, so no dull moment with us

I hope this thread won't be turned over by tribal bigots

Hausas hardly travel to the western world for hustling sake. Ibos and Yorubas can give anything to travel, that's why most crime committed by Nigerians abroad are attributed to them.

You nailed it. No partiality.

'

Yeap, a Yoruba friend is an essential commodity, if u love to talk lol. But honestly there are good characteristics among most Nigerians irrespective of tribes

my brother Lol for your mind now u Don make sense abi.....Afonja are coming for your head.

LAFO:
I hope this thread won't be turned over by tribal bigots

Just for fun bro, nothing serious

Remove Hausa/Fulani because they don't travel

True talk but I think Bini people love traveling abroad MORE than any tribe in AFRICA.

This issue of drug trafficking. Those guys being caught are being manipulated by cabals.
They go into interior villages, recruit innocent boys, give them girls and maybe 1million to flex, then they promise them up to 100million if they just push drug into a certain country for them, when the innocent guy (likely from a poor home) accept, they take them to a shrine to take an oath of allegience.
So this drug cabals are found around Nigeria.

Wetin all those mumu NCAN boys dey wait for na See better thread here.

OAFMods:

This is the problem with loud mouth like you. It's pathetic being decent or reasonable with you. You just do not have a brain to decipher intention or advice.

Pretty face there is no intelligence in proffering excuse to an endemic problem such as Igbo trafficking hard drug, the commonsensical thing to do is what i suggested which is to find a solution to the problem not your showmanship of a fine face plus lame excuses at your failure to what is killing your people.

Can you tell whose comment lack intelligence now ? You can vex for all i care the truth is the truth, nonetheless you still have a fine face but sadly a devilish heart too.

Ranting of a jobless man.
Always wandering around on social media looking for who to infect with his sadistic nature.

your mates are in the office or work place making money, many of them are with family.
while you are here joblessly arguing online and constituting nuisance.
Go and learn a skill now that you are young before Pre-mature grey hairs start growing on your head.
Thank you. My last comment to you.

OAFMods:


Was this how hard you ran your lousy mouth to get who you're dating now ? Do you have an idea what May 1 represent all over the globe ? I thought you have some decency in you but I thought wrong. You are nothing but a worthless, classless bimbo of no repute whatsoever. I can not even think of referring to you as a lady, it is such a shame.

Ladies pride / class themselves with the manner of their approach or reproach not by being mannerless as you have chosen today. Like i said previously am not ashamed to admit you have the face but please build the character. Read that btw the lines of every of my comments to you this morning, although harsh but you should learn from it. Not everyone is cut out to tolerate your nonsense because you have a pretty face. You have the face build the class/character it is easy. Stay classy n stop being mannerless stop being a disgrace to your man n bye for life.

look at who is talking about being classy! You jumped into this thread,you replied my comment by going tribal.
I saw through your hypocrisy!you can't be fool me pls. I called you out,instead of you to apologise or redress,you went on the attack mode.
You are a tribal jingoist and I don't entertain such a rubbish around me.
I respect men who respect themselves, when a grownup behaves like a child,he /she will be cautioned like a child.
