Dont be useless. He is a yoruba person same way Israel Adesanya is yoruba but doesnt fight for nigeria. Name the igbo athletes and stop morning like a bitch. The greatest Nigerian basketballer is a yoruba man.

OGA STOP MEASURING DIK WITH THE IGBOS!

IGBOS HAVE BEEN FIGHTING FOR SURVIVAL SINCE 1960 TO DATE.

THEY HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED PEACE IN THIS EVIL CONTRAPTION AND DESPITE ALL THAT, THEY STILL CONTRIBUTE THEIR QUOTA IN SPORTS, DOMINATING FOOTBALL BOTH AT HOME AND ABROAD - THESE ARE MEN THAT ROSE FROM THE ASHES OF DSTRUCTION AND EXCEL - THESE IGBO MEN AND WOMEN WERE NOT BORN AND BRED ABROAD - THEY SURVIVED HELL TO BE WHERE THEY ARE TODAY.

BUT YOUR PEOPLE - THE YORUBAS HAVE BEEN ENJOYING RELATIVE PEACE SINCE INDEPENDENCE - NO BODY DISTURBS THEM. IN FACT, THE ONES YOU ARE EVEN NOW BRAGGING WITH AREMOSTLY THOSE BORN AND BROUGHT UP IN OVERSEAS CAUSE WHILE THE IGBOS WHERE FIGHTING WAR IN ALL FRONTS, YOUR PEOPLE WERE FREELY MIGRATING ABROAD.

SO OGA, NEXT TIME YOU WANT TO MAKE YOUR COMPARISON, START BY CONSIDERING THE FACT THAT THE YORUBAS STARTED RUNNING WHEN THE IGBOS WERE STILL SEARCHING FOR THEIR SHOES AND DISPITE THE LONG STARTING ADVANTAGE OF THE YORUBAS, THE IGBOS STILL CATCH UP WITH THEM AND ARE ALMOST LEADING IN ALL THE MOST RELEANT SPORTS!

The igbos are close but still behind. And their rise is due to the support and generosity of yorubas. If every yoruba stopped buying anything from the igbos, igbos will suffer untold hardship and yorubas will buy somewhere else. Will consider cutting some slack when you bow to your superiors in the west.

How many igbos have scored more than 70 goals in the premier league? Yorubas are holding heavy weight championship. Igbo is nowhere. Mention any igbo table tennis player close to Toriola and Aruna.

All these players u mention scored only wack goals that did not win Nigeria anything in international games.Kanu Nwankwo goals at Olympics 1996,Emmanuel Amuneke goals at afcon 1994 final and Sunday Mba goal final afcon 2013 should be what we should be discussing.
