Nice one, you practice your own bigotry and tribalism hiding under some finesse and style
But you are still a closet bigot

bigotry
ˈbɪɡətri/
noun
noun: bigotry; plural noun: bigotries
intolerance towards those who hold different opinions from oneself.

"the difficulties of combating prejudice and bigotry"

synonyms: prejudice, bias, partiality, partisanship, sectarianism, discrimination, unfairness, injustice
..

Please what's bigoted about my Post undecided
Kindly educate me.

The summary of what I said is that Yorubas have a Significant population of Muslims, and this is NOT bad..
I said that clearly, or didn't you see it undecided

Then I said, Igbos don't have a significant number of either Muslims or Judaism believers..

Pls, what is the lie or bigoted statements about this undecided
Is there any lie in what I said.....

You're a renowned bigoted fellow here, you are looking for who to drag along with you...

I will appreciate if you can bring out any comment or thread where I insulted any Tribe ? Especially Yoruba people


With an exception when,
I had some altercation with an Akwa Ibom person, who was cursing on Igbo girls, I had to respond to him...
That's my only bigoted comment on Nairaland since 2013......


I'm the least bigoted person you know, believe me.....
I have no problem with Tribes..

I only have problems with the characters/behavior of people
.
...

I'm not here to start the usual talk of "I have many Yoruba friends, Yoruba neighbors, bla bla bla"...

Just know that I don't EVER insult Yoruba people unlike you who spend your day cursing Igbo people
...

I await any evidence of bigotry or tribalism from me...

The Lagos State Government on Sunday declared Monday public holiday to mark June 12 celebration in the State, saying that the State remains committed to the ideals of the annulled 1993 Presidential election.



In a statement signed by the Secretary to the State Government, Mr Tunji Bello on behalf of the State Governor, Mr Akinwunmi Ambode, the government said the holiday was in honour of the ideals which June 12, 1993 Presidential election represents being a day that the country experienced an election that was adjudged as the freest and fairest in Nigeria’s history.



The Governor said 24 years after, the ideals of June 12 commemoration were worth celebrating, describing the day as one of the most defining moments of the country’s political history which has positively shaped its democratic rule.

Governor Ambode said the time has come for Nigerians to go beyond the commemoration and entrench a viable democracy as a way to immortalise the late presumed winner of June 12, 1993 Presidential election, Chief M.K.O Abiola through the practice of true federalism and conduct of credible and fair elections.

He said: "June 12, 1993 is a day we must not forget in the annals of our democratic history. Our present democratic experience may still be far from the ideal but we must all make concerted efforts to entrench fiscal federalism which is the only way to achieve true nationhood.”

Continuing, Governor Ambode said part of the enduring lessons of June 12 election is that it imbued the patriotic and nationalistic zeal in all Nigerians to speak with one voice to make a political choice devoid of ethnic, racial or social sentiments.

“On June 12, 1993, majority of Nigerians across all divides demonstrated through the ballot box that irrespective of class or ethnic sympathies, the Nigerian people are united and would always join hands to promote our unifying values,” he said.


Governor Ambode said though the peoples’ hope was dashed with the annulment of the elections by the military junta, the lessons of the elections cannot be wished away despite subterranean efforts by many to do, describing June 12 as the real Democracy Day in Nigeria.

“We owe it a duty to genuinely immortalize the fallen heroes of the June 12 struggle nationally and deepen our democratic values to ensure that never again will such anti-people action be allowed to take place”.

He also assured that his administration remains committed to the ideals of June 12 by carrying out people-oriented programmes across the State and making life more comfortable for the people.

Meanwhile, the State Government, through the office of Civic Engagement, has perfected arrangement for the annual public symposium which will hold at the De Roof, LTV 8 in Ikeja, to celebrate June 12.

They all claiming Jewish Religion now..

Note, I'm talking about Jewish religion, not Jewish origin...
In terms of Origin, Igbos have strong roots from the Jewish people (Israelis), but we don't practice Judaism...

On the other hand, Yoruba Muslims have a very significant population in the Yoruba ethnic group...
I believe their numbers should be in Millions...
Being a Muslim is not Bad, provided you're not a Fanatic..
So, no need to be defensive about this!!!


You can't count more than 100,000 Jewish Igbo people
You can't see more than 30,000 Igbo Muslims...

This is not a bigoted or tribal post...
