I Feel So IRRITATED When We So Called Igbos Beat Our Chest Over Everything! by mrbenjame: 6:54pm On Apr 10, 2020 |
Have you wondered why the adage; “You don’t command respect, you earn it” really came to be? First of all, I’m an Igbo guy. But it saddens my heart whenever any sort of achievements of any Igbo entity just comes up we tend to beat our chest and at such making other tribes feel inferior. It is wrong. It’s not maturity. It can never foster love for one another. The Yorubas, Hausas, Fulani, ibibios, ijaws etc all have unique things too. Even enough than you can ever imagine. I don’t see the reason for these unnecessary hypes and all that. Any best graduating student from Harvard university bearing Igbo name you’ll see them warming up to cause nuisance online. This is stupid mehn. Especially the team IGBO AMAKA. That’s illiteracy in the highest order. It’s another form of racism if you don’t know. I didn’t say other tribes do not do this as well but we igbos are really not trying. Truth be told. Even if any other tribe will do this please refrain from it. If a Yoruba or Hausa entity achieve something spectacular, no hating. Please applaud the person no matter the tribe. And at the same time when it reaches your turn people would celebrate you and not the chest beating thing. It would never earn you the respect you deserve. This tribe thing is really killing Nigeria. Very pathetic. Sometimes I weep for this tribal bigots. Americans have languages too. But the official language is English but they celebrate anyone so long he or she is American. What then has gone wrong with Nigerians? I’m really ashamed honestly. INNOSON builds so so so..... You see them in drones come out like hired crowds for campaign to cause nuisance. It’s very bad. The Biafra struggle the IGBOs have been agitating wouldn’t be this difficult because of how you have belittled yourself before every dick , Tom and Harry. It’s the job of people to talk good about yourself and not you ranting all over the place. If another tribe applauds you, you simply say “Thank you. Proudly Naija” you know.... but we play the tribal thing and I don’t expect this from IGBOs. We are too loud. Abroad we are loud, in Nigeria we are loud. What’s wrong with we IGBOs. In some headlines you’ll see a blogger putting IGBO man achieves so so so.... just to cause a fight because they now know IGBOs as chest beaters who would raise dust for just a topic. If you don’t know. What you’re actually doing is just a mere display of low self esteem. How do you see someone that brags naturally? You get irritated right? That’s the way other tribes now see you. Even the whole world are now looking to the direction of IGBOs as loud mouthed people. Well.... I wish we would change! A word is enough for the wise. If you like attack me. Your brother has told you the bitter truth. If you like take it. If you like spit it out! I rest my case. Safe! @lalasticlacla please push this so they’d see it and change. Thanks. 5 Likes |

MelesZenawi: It’s so unfortunate that we IGBOs are very stupid! So when I start without an identity you’ll call me afonja isn’t it? Yes I’m Igbo but I don’t like what you guys are doing. So Stop it. It doesn’t earn you any respect. Period! |

mrbenjame: You personally who respects you? Who are just to talk to others about respect with this your show of shame? If your father's house is suffering from inferiority complex, let it remain in your compound and stop looking for who infest with skewed, poverty and dejected reasoning. If your lineage are cursed not to hear and praise good things, others are not. So let the curse remain with you and your household. |

Ok, this is my own analysis and I might be completely wrong, but I think it's a normal trait of any group of people who feels or has once felt opressed. African American women are often fond of saying things like 'black girl magic' once a black woman is succeeding. I personally am very proud of black women, especially black German women or men tbh, who are changing the narrative and are succeeding in whatever field they are because I know it's not easy. It gives you a feeling of 'If they can do it, I sure as hell can too' After the civil war, most igbos had nothing, so there's nothing wrong about being proud of certain achievements. It only becomes an issue, if you assume the only reason a certain milestone was achieved is due to the person's tribe. That's no longer you being proud of your tribe, but you being tribalistic 1 Like |

Wise one...great one.....not knowing that you are already a forgotten place here. What others do are now a problem to you Mr perfect... because of how you were trained.
