Who won the player of the tournament Was it not Christian chukwu. His impact was felt more the tournament that's why he won the player of the tournament..

The only sports yorubas dominate I give it to them is boxing ...that's all

Igbochief001:

Sunny ade better than osadebe ? U must be a Lagos grown who thinks Nigeria starts n ends with Lagos

I grew up in the east and never heard any Yoruba musician aside fela n not for his music but Activism

Lol yes today Yorubas might have the upper hand in music doesn't mean igbos don't hold their own
Phyno apprentice under olamide .? U just he smoking shit ....no Igbo musician us bigger than phyno ? Really? Don jazzy is from ibadan right ? P square have denied their Igboness right ? ...runtown no longer sings

Even buner us from Igbo speaking part of Rivers

No matter who u are in the music industry without oga polo go and read about pual okoye not the p square own ooh ...then u would know

When Abu ventures Ran the industrial in Nigeria did igbos brag ? ....not u guys want to make mouth

Nadaken:
I have followed this thread from page 1 and this your accession just showed how ignorant you are.

No offense intended, but sunny Ade, fela, Ebenezer obey alone are greater than than the old generation Igbo musicians like osadebe etc, (I mean sunny Ade music still rocked homes and shows that aren't even Yoruba then)

I don't know any Igbo current musician that is greater than phyno yet the dude reverenced the fact he was an apprentice under olamide (same olamide that was a benefactor to dagrin).

And this is just for indeginous musicians, the main stream Igbo don't come close to Wizkid, davido, and the likes which they struggle to sing to their lyrics.

Female arstist ( yemi alade, tiwa, teni, Simi, ninola, seyi Shay) please drop female Igbo artist

In terms of entertainment, Yoruba own that, I am not even Yoruba myself

Ibadanpikin:
Mikel is greater than any other yoruba player dead or alive.Emmanuel Amuneke is a sensation to watch.

Iamgrey5:


First of all, it's strange to claim a defender was the best player in the tournament when the team scored the highest goal in the tournament.

Segun Odegbami was the joint highest scoreer in 1980 with Lawal not to far behind

As for 1994 nations cup, Emunike only scored in final for the very first time in the tournament as Yekini was closely marked. Without Yekini Five goals there would have been no final for Nigeria.

Yekini was the highest goal scoreer in the tournament.

LegendHero:


Stop saying nonsense. No sensible Igbo will say they throw parties more than the Yorubas.

No tribe in Nigeria can withstand the Yorubas in Owambe. Entertainment is in our blood and the Owambe is a major economic industry in Yoruba land.

KnightRod:
Lol.. I'm Igbo, but I don't attend Igbo parties/functions anymore.. It ain't fun.. They do too much talking, the food is scarce, the meat is petty, and don't even let me talk about the drinks..

Igbo men have this hungry ego.. They always want to feel above their peers. My dad once changed 100k to dollars, just to spray his friend's daughter at her wedding.. Why?? Just because Others were spraying naira and he wanted to show them they don't call him 'Chief' for nothing


But some folks have not even taken as little as a bottle of coke at the wedding, and they were watching people spray dollars and naira on their empty stomachs.



But a yoruba party is always dah bomb!! You must eat to your satisfaction! Assorted food.. Assorted drinks.. Even ordinary naming ceremony.. They don't joke with the food.. They make sure it's available for everyone!!

Then the colourful attires.. Lol.. Really nice.

Nadaken:
I don't consider burns to be Igbo artist atleast he even identifies more with Yoruba than his ph roots.

Don jazzy isn't a musician but a producer, we all know he is just been playful when ever he drops lines.

Psquare doesn't exist as we speak

Yes sunny Ade is greater than osadebe

Yemi alade is half Igbo and Yoruba
Tiwa Savage is not Yoruba

When it come to music industry Yoruba females are doing well morethan Igbo females but when it comes to other sectors of entertainment igbo females are well represented more than Yoruba females

Movie industries: Yoruba's don't have the likes of Genevieve,Rita Dominic, uche jumbo, Chika Ike,Chioma chukwuka,Stephanie okereke, oge okey etc.

The likes of beauty pageantry, Igbo females still dominate there same as modelling..

Emilokoiyawon:


Mikel? Do you even know football? Mikel is average. Watching him play for Chelsea was painful: useless back passes, slow release, slowing down the game etc. He seems to play a little better when he dons the green white green.

Admissionclass:


I am in Lagos too there is nothing swaggerlicious about yorubas compared to when I was in portharcourt .

Gabkosh:
Who be osadebe, what is he singing. You want to compare him to sunny ade.

Lol, sunny that an English textbook did comprehension on him alone.

I mean English project.

Emilokoiyawon:

Common. You know how your people are now. When they see business the rush in and SATURATE the market with low-grade products. Na u na way.


Yes now. Comparing a midfielder to a striker is madness. Comparing Drogba to Mikel is madness. One's job is to score goals and the other is to control the midfield. Get sense.


Yes. No Igbo striker can stand toe to toe with Oba-goal let alone Yekini. These are facts not opinion.


You are the one comparing them not me. Oba-goal was a striker (a very good one) and Mikel was a midfielder (a very average one). See above - only an idiot will compare striker to defensive midfielder.


Nothing special about Mikel. Many average players win trophies. Many great players go trophyless. So are you saying Mikel is greater than Okocha?


Big lie. Yekini was the first Nigeria to win CAF player of the year. And in terms of women Oshoala don win am.


Did Okocha get CAF Award? So are you saying back-passing master Mikel is better than Okocha?


You mean football? Nah. First, produce a STRIKER to rival Yekini and Oba-goal then I will take you serious. Until then, its just your normal chest-beating.

Ibadanpikin:
You can call him what so ever,what Mikel has won no yoruba player dead or alive has won.

Ibadanpikin:
Shame unto for saying i claim that Christain chukwu was d best player in 1980.Cannavaro was voted the fifa best player of the year in 2006.His cannavaro a striker or defender.Remember igbos have the highest number of players in 1980 and 1994 nations cup final match,so it was these players that made it easier for Nigeria to win the nation cups.

Lol this guy is funny ... comprehension can be done on anything ... infact u do comprehension on this that are not too know so that people can learn about them not obvious knowledge ....u need to ask people from North , and south south who is more popular

Iamgrey5:
Chukwu didn't win player of the tournament

He was simply among the best defenders in the tournament.

Goals win games

Without Segun Odegbami and Muda lawal, Nigeria won't have won 1980 nations cup

Without Yekini five goals, Nigeria won't have won the 1994 nations cup.

Ideke9000:

They are saturating it and winning trophies unlike that don't even have anything to saturate it in the first place

Ideke9000:

Please, stop making a fool of yourself yekini was never nominated for for caf talk more of winning it..the first Nigerian to win it was Emmanuel amunike..yekini didn't win any caf

Ideke9000:

Okacha was nominated and he came third while Mikel came second in 2013 when he was nominated for it..

Ideke9000:

Obafemi was below average that's why he was never nominated for anything..

Ideke9000:

has achieved alot more than him in football careers, who knows obafemi martins apart from Nigerians but Mikel obi is more popular ..

Ideke9000:

No footballer from the west or Yoruba origin is a match for the likes of Mikel,jay jay,KANU etc..

Ideke9000:

Oga, segun odegbami was just an average foot aller nothing spectacular about him..he was just lucky to have scored the goal ..
Christian chukwu won the best player of the tournament.. Go and use google Oga..

This is basket ball ... didn't even search too much and igbos dominated again
