The average yoruba husband will wake around 11am each day, sit on the street eyeing every small girl that walks past, flirting, talking trash and drinking local gin. By 3pm he strolls out to 'work', ends up @ d nearest bus stop or beer joint to argue with his peers & stay up to date on current ghetto politics. Here, he also hails & sings praises of other patrons in order to get a few bucks from them. By 7pm he heads to his favourite Olosho joint for a quickie. By 10pm he returns home to yell at his illegitimate kids, beats his wife, rapes her & snores off only to repeat the same sequence the next day.

After three years, he impregnates his daughter's age mate, accuses his wife of witchcraft & runs away from home. In three years time, he repeats the same thing again till he becomes adept at it.

spits! angry angry

Let me beg you on their behalf, this beating is too much that I pity yorubas. grin

The strength of the South West is not in physical bulk but intellectual sagacity.

Have you noticed that the person who can afford a bag of rice can't carry it and the person who carries a bag of rice can't afford to buy it.

Wawa pigs need to look like castrated pigs so that they can have the strength to serve others.

The United Nations Children Fund (UNICEF) has revealed that the south-west has the second highest number of stunted children in Nigeria. UNICEF Communication Officer, Blessing Ejiofor, speaking at a meeting on child nutrition in Ogun state attributed the high number of stunted children in the region to acute malnutrition.

She revealed that 19.4% of children in South West are stunted, which is only
second to what is obtained in the North. She said; “However, 19.4 per cent of
children in South-West Nigeria are stunted. This figure is worse than the figure for the South-East and the south-south but better than the North as we would see during the presentations. This calls for more work by everyone –government and all of us.

“As agenda setters, we must do more to keep child nutrition conversations on the priority list of those that can act to reverse this ugly trend.
“UNICEF believes that journalists can help set the agenda for action against all forms of child malnutrition, be it severe acute malnutrition or stunting. This, the media can do by creating heightened awareness among leaders and citizens.

The media remains UNICEF’s major ally as we work for every child, everywhere, to build a better world for everyone.

I am not surprised. The only food they eat mostly in south west is Amala and Stew or Ijebu Garri with sugar. If not for the beans they eat always it would have been worst.

Inside Nigeria the East beats the West in educational achievement. But outside Nigeria (US, UK, etc) both are at par and beat the rest of Nigeria by far. I have not seen any major difference between both outside Nigeria.

Do u know that Afonjas don't cook with crayfish?
Back then when I was serving, anytime I wanted to cook all of them would come out only to watch me cook.
Their level of Amebo and Apkoroko is too bad that even ur Yoruba landlord would send his children to beg salt, oil, matches and maggi.
I once came back from the East and I gave my landlord's mother stockfisk,driedfish and 5bars of soap. Due to the fact that she saw me came back with 3 big traveling bags, she never appreciated me, rather refused to talk to me for 2days because she expected a lot from me...An ordinary Corp member. Her senses regained when she came to beg me matches.
It is only Afonjas that used to marry many wives and they will still be sleeping with their daughter's friends.

Even most of their graduates are educated illiterates.
How can u be in a social and official gathering and u will be communicating in Yoruba language.
When u are asked to speak English, u start getting angry bcoz u can't.
Back then, even my colleagues saw me (an Igbo) as a threat. Ibo this, Ibo that while they have never been to any South Eastern state before.
They dare not travel to other regions.

I get your point. But there are also several Yoruba equivalents of these people you listed. Of course they may not be in the same fields, but Igbo and Yoruba are very competitive abroad. I know this because I am in the system here in the US. In Nigeria, they are messed up real big shocked shocked shocked shocked And that is regardless of what they churn out from their fake western press.

Yellow garri was introduced during the war when your fathers were dying of kwashiorkor.

You should try eating yellow garri. It may help you get taller and grow a brain too.

The Igbos went through war for 3years,millions died,even after the war ,their money/properties were devalued to 20naira only... yet they are above you people in many areas of life,l expected you guys, that didn't smell war,not to talk of experiencing it, to be much more better and advanced than the igbo but una still dey, dey struggle for supremacy... Whenever you hear anything that has to do with the Biafra war,hide your face and keep mute.
You guys should be ashamed of yourselves, for always using the war ,as a defence mechanism against the Igbos .....Uburu aturu

Listen up dude..forget this your tribal cries,but your women hardly cook normal food for their kids...I grew up in Lagos..Yoruba women giving their kids 50naira to buy ijebu garri,sugar and groundnut as lunch was the norm when their children come home from school...Even your ewedu soup is just ewedu,water,enough pepper and salt..with some stew and kpomo as meat..

But when an Igbo woman makes soup,its dried fish,stock fish,crayfish,smoked fish,ugu leaves,beef/chicken/goatmeat,egusi,okro,okazi,oha,bitterleaf e.t.c you will be seeing..depending on the type of soup cos the list is endless....Abeg make una up-grade what you eat.



why are you crying more than the bereaved. your open hatred for Yoruba had blocked your center of reasoning to know, people cooked what they like regardless of tribe. why not leave your remote village and come down to southwest for food campaign since you're bent on shooking mouth in wetin no affect your kinsmen

Don't be surprised that Iboe goat made that statement up. These iboes are pathetic and useless people that always feel they must compare and downgrade everyone( especially Yoruba people)to feel good. They will always derive pleasure in downgrading the SW.
