Was this comment necessary? It's not as if you are responding to an insult made against Igbos. You just decided to be unnecessarily provocative like a child with no home-training.

greymiles:
She won it when nepotism, cronyism and tribalism was so deep in this country’s polity
The hate on the igbos have been long before today
Everyone one knows igbos are the beauty Queen in this country, how the award goes to a yoruba person is what I don’t understand

This was when beauty was interpreted differently. Today's beauty is about yansh and breast.

Hmmm...You think beauty is toning one skin. Why are you exposing the business your grandma did before she hung her boot.

[quote author=kinzation post=107695425][/quote] gullible, egocentric, narcissestic person full of hate, the avarage igbo man is so tribalitic, nepotic person just that the hausa/fulani man has more opportunity to showcase it, how does one take a post that has nothing to with tribe, religion or ethnicity to bring in your tribal hatred, that is why nobody trust an igbo man to lead because attitude you & other igbo persons display here on nairaland sums up the intention of alot of people from the east, you don't even see the south-south, south-west as your brothers, learn to love alittle because this country weather you accept it or not only love can save us. We fight each at the grassroots while those at the top use the hatred they instilled in us to cashout
