Re: Where Are The Igbos, Hausas And Other Non-Yorubas? by Idekeson(m): 7:25pm On Jan 21, 2006
It's Igbo and not Ibo. Thanks a lot for the correction.
Re: Where Are The Igbos, Hausas And Other Non-Yorubas? by Idekeson(m): 7:43pm On Jan 21, 2006
Virozuru, I understand your loyalty to the Igbo nation but I don't subscribe to your view that the Yoruba's think they're any better than the Igbos by any measuring standard. There might be resentments on the Igboman's dogged approach to success but any Yorubaman that actually believes he is better than an Igboman is simply delusional.
Re: Where Are The Igbos, Hausas And Other Non-Yorubas? by lexyflexy(m): 8:53pm On Jan 21, 2006
I wonder o. Must people go to that ectent all because they feel cheated one way or the other, in the name of trying to make their points clear.....

And do make her understanding her trying to make things sound so controversial will not bring peace or make things work like they ought to.

How would someone discover a mistake (if I may call it that) and dtill tend to make things more erronous.... its devastating and too wrong.....

Yes, I'm Igbo, but does that matter? And lexyflexy, I'm not clear on the point you're trying to make. What are you saying?
Re: Where Are The Igbos, Hausas And Other Non-Yorubas? by lexyflexy(m): 12:32pm On Jan 23, 2006

Zuru u do not like Yoruba's abi? Well hey! it is a forum right? Go ahead and express your self. Speak your mind!! I am not Igbo, and i am not sure if there is a rivalry or you guys just have unsettled beef. But i could not help but notice that you are not mixing your words.

virozuru:

what do you mean by"dogged approach to success?" if anything, we are quite honest in our work; we work every hard to get what we want honestly. Unlike the Yorubas, however, who have to fraud the government to get money. Its typical, where they Yorubas relax and get paid lots of money, while the Igbos toil and suffer. As for delusional, there are a whole lot of damn Yorubas that are delusional!


Pls let us hear . Its just unfortunate, the igbo's have not been priviledged to have the same opportunity because they would also defraud the government. Just a typical igbo , always complaining bout the flaws of the Yorubas as if they are saints themselves.

...And they say goodguy is 'touchy' and too 'sensitive' tongue

I wonder why we're arguing here in the first place. The topic at hand only requires that we should identify which ethnic group we belong to.

@Virozuru, there are also errors in some of your posts. If you don't know how to respond to lexyflexy's post, then don't post at all, instead of trying to bring out the grammatical errors in his post.

I have long been awaiting that time when Seun will give a release to this Topic for replies. The last time I read from this Topic, Mr. Admin, blocked every means through which replies could be made....

As a young man, I believe onething, there is always a right time for every wrong deed, and thats what am here to make seen.

I am making this post for the sake of a girl who thinks she can tongue-lash everyone and then feel everything is alright, or nothing seems wrong for doing such. there is an old saying that reads:- "if it will take you stepping on the toes of others to make things right you have to."

I have been on the Land for a while now. I have heard from people and read peoples post and comments on issues and on that ground, onething stands; and that is the ability of seeing our mistakes, correcting them amicably.

Onething that still keeps many on the Land is just the spirit of accepint our mistakes (for those who are still in) and see to improvements in everything we do or steps we take.

As a young man (also as an African), it is a TABOO to throw words at a man, no matter of the size heights, grounds or status. And it will always be as long as Africa and its occupants are still in existence.

Virozuru, you really should be thankful. I heard more than this to share, but had to let things slide due to talks from those around me, most especially my Mentor.


I can't imagine you looking out for my typographical errors when all hands are on deck for an issue more crucial.....

I hope you weren't referring to me, because if you are, can you clarify yourself? You have also made a lot of grammatical and spelling errors as well. If those could be corrected, maybe I'll understand you better.

If you think you ae very good at pointing out typos, I bet you; I will beat you hands down on that....

Let me make this known to you, its always very unusual for me taking up a girl this serious when I should be giving you  frivolous attentions. But I have to so as to make you understand onething:- THOSE WHO LIVE IN GLASS HOUSES DON'T THROW STONES.

Let me make myself clear on this note. if you think the best thing to do is to throw words, most especially looking out for mistakes, then you are sure going to find things un-easy to cope with.

In words, don't raise dust over issues that should be neglected.

@ virozuru ..... its always the rule of once beaten twice shy.... I shall rest my case..... but remember: if anybody wronged you first, its the person's fault, but if wronged the second time, then its your fault....
