And today the Igbos are beating you silly educationally according to WAEC. And the Igbos are whoopping whites, Chinese and every other race on earth educationally innthe US, according to research.

Igbos, along with Chinese, Jews, Japanese and Germans are reputed to be the most fantastic race of humans. Yorubas are nowhere near this list. Just mediocre

This is no joke section. we talk serious issues here.

Good morning fellow NL, i recently came across a story, about how two tribes ( Yoruba and Igbo), in the southern parts of the Nigeria treated the Whites when they, came to the shores of the present Nigeria. The whites as we all know, came to explore our land and take all the important minerals such as, gold, silver, coal and our brothers as slaves, but some of our greedy forefather sold, themselves before the British took over the slave trade. The Yoruba's invited the British as guest, into there kingdom, wanting to share from The knowledge of the white man, who had photography, guns , ships, wore suit etc. But it didn't take long for the white to cease control, of the kingdom.
The Igbo's on the other hand, didn't want anything to do with the white man, fought a war with the white man for complete 31years with lots of causality on the Igbo's side, but with all the fighting and causality on there sides, they were still conquered and invaded.
I will like to put it up for an arguments on this forum, who made the most reasonable decision, was it the Yoruba's who invited the British in to there land, to share there Knowledge with them,(this Same knowledge was used to clamour for there Independence) , Or The Igbo who stood their ground, for complete 31 years and resisted the whites not minding the casualty but was later defeated.

We need references and historical facts. Thanks.

Who are the we?

The British vs Fulani wars were widely documented events.

For example, the British destroyed Sokoto caliphate through war.
Here are some sources discussing the battles:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Kano_(1903)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sokoto_Caliphate#Decline_and_fall

There are more extensive sources but they are behind paywalls.

Northerners never surrendered to the British, they were soundly
Defeated in battle and their leaders exiled and replaced with British loyalist.

The British favoring the North at the time of independence was simply out of strategic interests and not some payback for willingly surrendering to the colonials.

I'm sorry, you are incoherent while your source ain't detailed. They were soundly defeated at first instance without putting up a strong resistance. There wasn't any record of prolonged fighting against the British. They'd rather enter an agreement to preserve their Islamic culture.

Here's what Harold Smith, one of the colonial officers the British Government sent to rig Nigeria’s pre-independence elections in favour of the North, had to say about Yorubas and Awolowo resistance to British rule, FROM THE HORSE'S OWN MOUTH:



"But the British were not treated as gods by the Yoruba. In my experience, the Yoruba regarded themselves as superior to the British and one only had to read a book written by Awolowo, the Western leader, to know why. The Yoruba were often highly intelligent and they taunted the British with sending inferior people to Nigeria. The Igbo would be humble and avert his eyes in the presence of a European. The Yoruba child would look at an important European and shout, ‘Hello, white man,’ as if he were a freak.”

It amounts to idiocy for a person to insinuate he\she had monopoly on historical facts. How does capitulation by Yari.ba translated into regarding themselves as superior to British. By 1861, Yari.ba had become completely subjugated by the British and the access to free air depended on the whim of British colonialists.

OfoIgbo:


Yet Ojukwu was the little Igbo boy that slapped the sh!t off a white man, while Yoruba boys were greeting them and Yoruba kings didn't even care to slap the white man

Pics of ojukwu slapping the white. Una don start, the same way Una talk say US army came to fight your Biafran cockroaches.

Tax imposition was the cause of both regional riots. Aba women riot was only pronounced because of the large scale of blood bath that marred it. Egba women riot was significantly accomplished with no resultant bloodbath. pls, disprove with facts.

War?.. Delusional slowpoke. So, they fought a war with wrappers and breasts
It was a riot, they only damaged properties of some native courts but many of them were killed for being stubborn, some detained as sex slaves, others flee. But I agree, there was a reform. Taxes was no longer collected by warrant chiefs but clan heads.
Egba women riot was class apart led by a refined woman well respected by the colonialists.

In everything yerobas try to compete with Igbos they always fail flat

Who ever chose the better option, what I know is that the British are the most despicable of humans in history (though the Chinese are trying their best to outdo the British).

AlfaSeltzer:
Yoruba will surrender even before you declare war.

Igbos never say die and will fight till the end against overwhelming odds.

While yeebos will pack their bags and freezers and run to the yeast to "celebrate new yam festival" at the first sight of trouble.

MelesZenawi:



Yorubas only invited the white to rule coz they can't rule themselves.


Give them Oduduwa republic and in less than six months everywhere will turn to desert because they will kill themselves finish.

That was why the Western Region was the most developed region in Nigeria after indepence. While your ancestors were climbing palm trees to tap palm wine mine were sitting in front of their tv being entertained. Is lack of sense a hereditary disorder in yeebos?

OfoIgbo:
