An Igbo adage said: instead of me to lose my cow I better cuts its tail to compensate me for losing my cow.

I don't really think that the Yorubas & Igbos knows how dominant & powerful they would be in Nigeria if only they can unite.

This two big brothers have everything in thier hands..from education to wealth, population, human & mineral recourses, but because thier hands & attention are focused on each others throats thier goodies keep falling into the waiting hands of thier enemies.

I'm an Igbo man,I have lived in the north for over 30yrs.. the best friend of an Igbo person in the long-time is the Yorubas.

My reasons: The Yorubas cannot occupy or invade my land.

The Yorubas would not abduct my Igbo sisters & forcefully convert them to Islam.

The Yoruba man will not kill me because I'm dating his sister.. where as he's dating my own sisters.

The Yoruba man will not kill me & my brothers & sisters because of a cartoon in Denmark.

The Yoruba man respects the Holy books & the Constitution of the land.

The Yorubas educates thier women & allows thier women to be in position of authority.

The Yorubas are the most religious tolerant tribe in Nigeria.

The south west hosts the largest investment of Ndigbo in Nigeria

The Yorubas don't destroy bussinesses in the name of religion..yet eats from the proceeds.

Yorubas don't practice monarchy system of government.

Finally, this reasons are vice versa except in few areas

Yoruba practise monarchy.

Yes before the pre colonial and sincerely the system is better than this oyinbo way of culture we called democracy.

Obamaofusa:

Igbos must vote Tinubu it's a must I'm telling them this they need to reason with me.

Igbo and Yoruba don't have any issue, forget what you see on nairaland, it's Igbo and Yoruba political supporters that has issue. Tinubu supporters vs PDP supporters. Apart from this set of people, there's no other issue, I have many neutral Yoruba friends here that can vote anyone that will move Nigeria forward. I can vote anyone irrespective of where the person is from, as long as I feel that he/she is competent.

So Igbo nd Yoruba should unite against Hausa abi? Yoruba's are not fools to unite with snitch nd betrayers

lies yorubas are betrays, skull hunters, political enemy to Ndi igbo, come 2023 with SS on our side with North we will become president.

Personally, I love and cherish the eastern people of Nigeria.

The relationship can be stronger, though

Tinubu no go see 3% vote for SE. For our North he fit see 10%

You can say they practice it partly but not in full

Who dines with hatefully raised ethnic

We're totally different

Stop contradicting yourself who make you a spokesperson over the good people of igbo? Our north .

It's not a must.

Let the s/west select & bring their best.

Let the s/east select & bring their best.

If possible s/south also should bring their best also.

Nigerians will decide the best among the best... it's not about one individual.. it's about the best among the best

The Igbos & Yorubas would not unite against the hausas, they will only unite in other to assume thier RIGHTFUL POSITION IN NIGERIA

Igbo has never fought Yoruba.
Yorubas are the one fighting igbos since the 60, using the excuse of a failed coup organized by both Igbo and Yoruba officers!
Igbos never stopped Abiolas presidency, never stopped Obasanjo presidency, never stopped shonekans presidency. Igbos live in Lagos peacefully and contribute their own quotas there. Igbos in government never stopped anything deu to the yorubas. Igbos never insulted the yorubas as we have seen different Yoruba traditional and political leaders do.

I still don't understand how an Igbo mans aspiration to lead the country after more than half a century, can be whimsically construed as a fight between the igbos and the yorubas. The yorubas have ruled this country and their biggest opponents have never been igbos.. Igbos invest heavily in Yoruba land! Yorubas don't have any significant investments in Igbo land. Yoruba boys marry Igbo gals at will, but Yoruba gals are told by their folks that igbos are ritualists. That's while Ogun State remains the ritual capital of the world!
So who is fighting who?

Imagine Ghana and Nigeria were forced to be a country, that's the issue with nigeria.

The cold war between igbos and Yoruba's is born out of a forced marriage called nigeria. Igbos and Yoruba's may tolerate each other but it doesn't equate mutual respect. Both tribe share almost nothing in common except for their skin color and prior to the 1700s never inter mingled with each other. But for the sake of practicality and necessity it's important they unite politically on a regional front to push for restructuring with their counterparts in the SS/NC. In the long run I believe that a healthy competition between these tribes will spur africa to greatness.

Yoruba's are already in rightful position in Nigeria nd by next year we are taking over aso rock....Igbo's should face their problem na stop looking for who dey will drag into their misfortune

Op be like your brain no correct

And you be like Yoruba man.. how on earth am igbo man calling for peace .. with his killers
Very ridiculous

Know it today.
Whatever you see on Nairaland is the real world
You young igbos don’t know your enemies that the truth.. the Biafra war washed you guys into beliwveing the Northern Nigeria is your enemy because of religious different

No worries one day you will come back and rewrite this
You will experience them Yoruba first hand.

Do you if know what is tribalism ?

Till you understand the meaning of tribalism then you will start understanding Yoruba people

Yoruba that will never allow you speak igbo in their presence.. yes try it when you’re with your Yoruba friends and look at their faces .. just pretend you dey answer call for igbo.

Una go wake up lass lass ..

No tribe, tradition, culture or race that is perfect, only God is.

However, beside the wrong perception created by stories of the past among us, share your personal experience with the Yorubas.. share it with the fear of GOD.

The worst form of BETRAYAL is the stranger or migrant who finally occupies our land & installed an emir in place of our Eze's.

The worst form of BETRAYAL is abducting my sister & forcefully converting her to another religion.

The worst form of BETRAYAL is dating my sister's, but kills me for dating his sister.

The worst form of BETRAYAL is killing & burning down our houses & bussinesses because of a cartoon in Denmark.

Which other BETRAYAL is worse than Muric's bauchi chapter statement against the RCCG... would Muric issue this kind of statement in 2014 or 2015?

Don't allow wrong perception to define your future

Yorubas not our political enemies:if you accuse Yorubas as your political enemies what would you say of the north?

Tinubu should support a Se candidate and step down.

For the first time you tried to make sense even if you failed eventually.
No true Nwafor has time to be doing senseless tribal banters,an average Igboman just wants to do his business legally,make more socio-economical allies and guess what in reality Igbos and Yorubas dey hustle with normal competition.
Only brainwashed ipob thugs that have lost their Igboness to something strange have time to engage some cretins claiming Yoruba here.
Go computer village,go see watin dey sup nobody get time for nonsense.
Better go hustle this mumu Igbo vs Yoruba wey you dey always do like se na your destiny dey make you sound like pure fòol everytime
