Ndigbo: Pride Goes Before A Fall by VOICEofORIENTAL: 8:32pm On Nov 22, 2021
Pride they say goes before a fall.sometimes in life a person,or group people may not know that they are fast drifting to a fall.the simple reason for this ignorance is the presence of PRIDE in the life of those I mentioned earlier.we were told of how pride dethroned Lucifer.. pride & arrogance was what led to the fall of the great Roman empire! time & time again we are warned of the dangers of pride & arrogance.with this in mind & my observation especially on this section of nairaland,I beg to ask: Ndigbo,are we making the right steps?..a day hardly passed without you reading Igbo this, or Igbo that.Ndigbo are we at war with everyone?.. ALMOST EVERY DAY,WE ENGAGE THE YORUBA'S ON TRIBAL WAR.. ANOTHER DAY IT'S THE TURN OF HAUSA FULANIS..YET ANOTHER DAY,WE ENGAGE THE NIGER DELTA..IF WE ARE NOT ENGAGING THOSE TRIBES,WE ENGAGE OURSELVES BETWEEN,ANAMBRA vs IMO...NGWA vs ABIA..etc.Ndigbo are we sure we have not DRIFTED? we have forgotten this Igbo adage;OJEMBA ENWE ILO!..a journey man doesn't have enemy!we travel widely on a daily basis.is it how we are going to live with those we travel daily to there region? NDIGBO LET US PAUSE & LOOK OUR SELVES IN THE MIRROR.

Since you admitted that we also engage each other then our engagement of other is not out of tribal hatred. They rally against us out of their own insecurities

Amen to your prayer! but I'm not pained.i cannot have a bitter mind against myself, because I'm also igbo.we should be humble enough to accept criticism.

The problem with Igbo;s is they don't have decorum

One important issue like this;

Igbos would be saying one thing

Ohaneze would be saying otherwise

Massob opinion is entirely different

While their politicians would be indifferent

there are plenty of igbos who have decorum that are not on this forum.however,my concern is that millions of igbos are being misrepresented by this tribal players.we are known to be travellers, this is not how a traveller suppose to behave

The Igbos who have decorum don't seem to be interested in the happening in the region.

you tell me yoruba man wakes up early in day morning jobless his whole thought is igbo, Hausa man the same thing some of them if use funny igbo monkers name here and trust igbo guys will surely reply them, most of them feel jealous of igbo development that's the problem and the truth is igbos always reply them curse to curse, banta to banta with fact so many jobless yoruba youth and hausa here with free data
do you know that igbos are closer to other tribes in Nigeria more than they are to us? now this is the problem; do you know how many people we offend daily in Nigeria?..& those that offends us as well.. it's all about tolerance!.. it's all about wisdom! OJEMBA ENWE ILO! take for instance the Nollywood movies we watch, people think that Alaigbo is full of juju, which is not true.So my brother, my message is simple,if you must defend yourself, it's far better you do it with wisdom without any form of abuse

you are very stupid for dragging the entire region over the comments of some people on this faceless forum, is unfortunate you ignore the actions of other elements from other tribes against the igbos, i have been on this forum for years.


Before nairaland forum was created, igbo hatred have been on the rise,it has nothing to do with comment on nairaland, i don't do tribal hatred, but this is a very stupid and annoying comment to see on this forum, coming from a man who claim to be igbo ,calling out an entire tribe because of action of few on nairaland forum.

It's called inferiority complex and low self esteem. Wanting to please others at the expense of your own to look good in their eyes but little do they know that those people they are trying hard to please will never give a damn about them. The igbos like the op even go as far as denying Igbo or talking bad about Igbo outside. Hausa do Boko Haram how many hausa deny hausa tribe. Fulani do herdsmen how many Fulani deny being fulani. Because of small issue you see them low self esteem Igbo denying their tribe just like Peter deny Jesus but as usual it will end in premium tears. Anybody that tells me rubbish about Igbo outside i shut the person down immediately even as I've never supported ipob before but you dear not talk bad about my Igbo tribe. God bless Igbo worldwide

But if Yankee offer you book, you will abandon your ignorant tribalist mindset, even Mazi has denied been Nigerian that he is British, is it possible to be igbo without been a Nigerian? Can you produce your birth certificate if you have one to debunk the assertion that you are from Nri & not Nigeria?

I'm not stupid! IGBO ADAGE;IF ONE OF YOUR FINGER TOUCHES THE PALM OIL IT WILL AFFECT THE OTHER FINGERS.the best way up in life is to always pause and ask your self honest and hard questions.. you said Igbo hatred have been on the rise? what exactly is the cause of this Igbo hatred? THERE ARE TWO THAT I KNOW..1.prosperity attracts jealousy, jealousy leads to hatred.ISAAC & JACOB experienced this type of hatred in there time, in the Bible..jealousy & hatred can also be found in Alaigbo.however, beside prosperity factor, there is another factor which is the number 2:BAD ATTITUDE TOWARDS YOUR HOST.let me stop here & allow you to ponder
