well all of you thank you, so i can go and get married to my ijebu woman, what good news that would be for her, but i think the main think is not where you come from, but who you are, you are a product of your envoiroment so where did you grow up and who where does who brought you up and how do you see the world yourself, is how you become who you are, not where you are from.

There is nothing wrong with Ijebu ladies since they come from different families and backgrounds.
I can marry anyone from anywhere in the world.

It's just a perception about Ijebu ladies that they don't stay in their husband's house and again if the hus is rich they might induced him to death especially if he's rich and not faithful.
they are prepared to kill him and get away with his money.

It's just what happens anywhere and not only Ijebus.
So if I see a beauty queen from Ijebu I will go for her.

Who says ijebu ladies are lonely?
As an ijebu lady,am nt lonely rather most ijebu ladies are homely,exciting,religious and committed.
i think this ijebu stuff is all about stereotype.
i have an ijesha man that's looking for an ijebu man to marry.
jebusites are cool peoplesmiley

You could say that about women from any part of the globe.

People are people.

You guys are silly.

EWE SO DEDE EWEN I JEBU RE WA NIBE,
I'm typical ijebu man and i will never trade that for criticism as some people have already indicate here.
We ijebus are very intelligent and humble, the docility is apparent in our character.
for those who dislike ijebu should try and check themself up, they may be lacking what attain to calibres of quality people.

If I wanted to marry a Nigerian lady, then yes, I'd marry an Ijebu lady. The tribe difference has never been an issue to me.

They're all lovely Nigerian ladies, and I don't differentiate them by tribe - I integrate them by the fact they're all Nigerian.

hayo:
Ijebu Woman - Too Worldy, loves party and may kill you before you are wise to marry another woman
Ondo Woman - Lailai, one husband can never fill her cupboard
Ibadan Woman - Very rass, dirty and cunny
Ekiti Woman - Yeepa, you wan die. She is too bloody tough. Alagidi
Ife Woman - Oluku mi ree ni (Meaning they love concubines )
Oyo Woman - Sango o, Oko Oya,  them dey go herbalist's house like market

Oya, you never talk am finish o! grin If you say the Ijebu woman loves to party, what about the Isale-Eko babe?? Na which category that one go be?  wink

I found your post too funny for words. All these stereotypes serve very little purpose. The truth is that people with all the negative characters you cited above, exist in each & every ethnic group, sub-tribe, neighbourhood or compound. I have been to some towns, whose indigenes exhibit each and every one of these traits you mentioned. You can find party-lovers and herbalist devotees in your own village, sef.   wink Even in Papa Adeboye's village, or Rev. Kumuyi's town, you will find people spreading negative stereotypes about the inhabitants.

hayo:
So which one we go come marry. It is not only Ijebu women that have stigmas associated to them, almost every town in Yoruba land has one or two. I have come to realise that it is a personal race and no matter where you come from, you decide what you believe and what you want to do. So, look for a good woman and not a woman from a particular ethnic group or town.

Like you rightly pointed out above in your concluding remarks, what matters most (like someone else also said earlier) is the quality of the person's character. Wasn't it the late Martin Luther King that said 'men should be judged by the content of their character and not the colour of their skin?' If we paraphrase that, we ought to say: let's all relate to people or judge them based on the content of their character, and not based on their ethnic background, or village stereotypes.

Every human being has some good, bad & even downright ugly aspects, that make up his intrinsic behaviour. There are no holy saints, anywhere.

hmmmmm, this one na waec topic sha. all i have to say is there r good ones but plssssssssssssssssssss, look before u leap. it is not just ijebu but egba too, infact the entire ogun state can give anyone shivers.i served in ogun, imeko and stayed in abeokuta for a while, also visited many places and studying the people's culture and i was way too shocked at the things they do.many corpers that didnt believe in jazz, saw first hand live juju. many guys kept heir pants up not because little john didnt want some actions but what we found out and saw there easily convinced people to zip up. if u have to be with any ogun person, make sure that person is a serious and i mean very serious christian because issues buckle for there. shocked shocked

We are happy people in Ijebu land with a class. grin grin grin grin

Well it depends on those you mixed with. But believe me, Ijebu people are nice and caring people.
Yes we love party, and wats the big deal there?

We are merry makers, we are happy people.

Maybe you mixed up with the wrong people.

Mind you all tribes do have their flaws too.

My own Ijebu is not from Cameroon my dear, am a proud Ijebu babe but grew up on the Island.

I do visit my town on every Ileya and other festive period. grin grin cheesy cheesy

If I may ask, where are you from?
lets analyse where you are also from.

If I may ask, have you been jazzed before?

Seems you are talking from experience because thats the only thing you were able to post on this thread.

Where are you from?

There is no village in Africa without tradition / history.  African traditions gave room for juju or watever you call it. But it now depend on individual to subject him/herself to such belief in this modern age.

So my dear, prove it to me that in your so called village, there is no herbalist. smiley

And I will tell you that even in the civilised states, they believe in the word witches/ wizards and magicians.

African villages do have their traditions, but I still don't see any reason why you have to pin it on Ijebu people alone, or are u jealous? or is it because we are social and popular people?

In my house we are Ijebu, and we believe so much in the ALMIGHTY GOD and not Juju.

So come of it, the world is changing and you better move with the trend, stop the living in the past that Ijebu people are Juju people.

Unless you are talking from experince that you have been jazzed then,,   lipsrsealed lipsrsealed lipsrsealed
