Various tribes have their different threads on here. This thread is dedicated to our unity in diversity. Please try to stifle your tribalistic thoughts or prejudices here. Coming from a single country, we have a lot in common and numerous things/experiences to celebrate (as well as complain about) without turning on one another.

I'll go first. I am Yoruba (well kind of), I have stayed in different parts of Nigeria and have loads of mates from around the country. When I am hanging out with my mates (even here in the UK), I don't think. . . oh, this one is Hausa or this one is Bini or this one is a Scouser or this one is Glaswegian. What matters to me are your values, your personality and that you are a good mate.

I hope a lack of tribal discrimination would reign here too.

SMC

Amala people are backstabbers.

Didn't I say no hating?

Well SMC its a pity threads like this dont generate much interest on tribalist-infested nairaland.

You'd have titled the thread 'i hate all igbos/yorubas' and boy would this place be flooded?

Pity

But be careful when you're at the inhospitable desert land of Hausa/Fulani. Jihad is going on there.
Be careful Hausa/Fulani's are bloody Murderers

am yoruba, OMO EKITI, i got no qualms with any tribe. if a person  act up, i find fault in that person. . .not the tribe. tribe has nothing to to with how you personally present yourself. . . it just classify you base on your traditions, language, culture, and ethnicities.


i love nigeria with its many different cultures. that's what makes the country beeeeaaauuutifullllll!!! ^{more beautiful, if the Govt. actually start doing their jobs}

holding grudge to the past. . .is not going the make the future brighter. . .if more and more nigerians think the way you do, what's the point of hoping for a better nigeria?

I'm not holding grudge against Mr Awolowo, he didn't inflict any of his murderous behaviour on me nor my tribesmen, am only answering your question 'Who Awolowo was', and i know him as the one who Initiated, supervised and make sure that little Ibo children were starved to death.

there will be no peace in Nigerian unless there is equal right and justice among tribes.
monkey go dey work baboon go dey chop
then you want the oppressed once to show peace.

@Oziomatv,
I see your Flag, E bi like sey you come from Biafra, but be careful Hausa/Fulani/Yoruba no dey like use eyes see that Flag. their own Flag bi Niger Delta oil, and their Nation anthem bi 'In Niger Delta we rest our Soul'
