Even the best Nigerian in a super eagles shirt is Yoruba Rasheed Yekini. And Yoruba women completely dominate women football. Yorubas dominate tennis, track, boxing, judo, chess, and many others. Too talented people. 20 Likes 8 Shares |

That's good, we love them. They are fellow Nigerians. We should praise people's achievements not because of where they come from, but because they are Nigerians. Thank you Anthony Joshua, Israel Adesanya, Tobi and Azeezat. You are very good at what you do. 34 Likes 3 Shares |

Since they’ve been packing Igbo people into football, what has been Nigeria success in that aspect?

And yorubas are the most diverse in thinking too.In 2015 many supported buhari while many supported Jonathan unlike SE/SS where buhari got less than 5% of votes cast. The Yorubas also are not blind folded in the current 2022 race as many support tinubu while many also support Peter Obi.It’s on record that after the civil war no igbo property was seized or destroyed in Yoruba land unlike the abandoned property saga that happened in SS and destruction of lives and property in north, in fact Adekunle Fajuyi laid down his life for Aguiyi Ironsi.It’s only in Yoruba land that you find two brothers of same mother who are Christian and moslem living peacefully with each other example is the Adeleke brothers . I saw a bbc igbo interview where Ademola Adeleke spoke perfect central igbo dialect . I was shocked as I never knew he spoke ibo.Most of the the people in my generation would never forget that iconic moment in history when Rashidi Yekini grabbed the net after scoring Nigeria’s first World Cup goal . Yoruba land is a place where people value old age, honesty and integrity more than wealth, the reason Ondo went to war for Adekunle Ajasin a good and honest leader who drove 504 Peugeot all his life, over Akin Omoboriowo in 1983 but sadly some of todays Yoruba and igbo youths too have fallen below standard and go online to spread ethnic, hate , mistrust and divisions among each other because maybe they believe inside them, they don’t have anything to offer to the society 11 Likes 2 Shares |

ZombieTAMER: Lol. You are just clutching at straws. What can equal Asisat Oshoala winning African footballer of the year for like five times in a row with no competition from inside Nigeria or Africa? Safe to say she is the greatest African female footballer of all times. GOAT of African football. Go and preach about "distasteful thread" to IPOBians who always get the backs of all Nigerians up with their supremacist rants. When Nigerians did well initially in the first round of AFCON, before we got knocked out, who were bragging openly on Nairaland here that it was Biafra 'propping' up Nigeria if not IPOBians ? When 'Biafra' keeper, Maduka Okoye, let in a soft goal that eliminated us from the competition did they similarly accept that Biafra let Nigeria down? No they did not. Claim the glory but deny the failure is the way of Igbos. Other Nigerians are not like that. It is Igbos always looking to claim ethnic glory from what should be team and national sport It is Igbos that prime the ethnic chauvinism in all others. Especially the Yorubas who are accommodating, inclusive and exemplarily tolerant. Don't preach unity unless your ready to tackle those who insist on dividing us always along ethnic lines. They are the ones making all of us embrace our regional enclave and affiliation as OP is doing. 7 Likes 2 Shares |

Aderewah: Everyone and Every Tribe is Talented and Capable To put it modestly and with full respect to everyone else’s immense Talents, Yorubas are just a bunch of noisy fun loving Joy seekers that is all They will put all their hearts and attention into Whatever gives them Joy If it is sports that gives them Joy they gladly spend all their efforts on it same with native literature, Music, Agriculture etc They prefer Owambe Parties and Merriment with lots of Food drinks Elaborate Dressing and Music to War They are also great lovers of the Arts that is why they can never get enough Music, Local Poetry ,Drama literature etc and everything else that goes with it , it is their Joy and fun loving nature that drives them even more than money In the days of Old their Elaborate Partying Merriment followed them everywhere even to their War Camps so their War Camps Were always full of Food , drummers Music and dancing even when the guns of their enemies were pointing directly towards them and shooting could be heard , that was how some Towns like Ibadan became known as the ” Arogun yo”. ( Those that rejoice at the Sound Of War) If a Yoruba man must die at the Warfront he at least wants to be sure he sang and danced his heart out before he died and he wants to be 100% Certain that he had danced every single dance that God Almighty had destined him to dance on the Surface Of the Earth before leaving to meet his maker and if he could have his own way he would prefer to die Singing and dancing 3 Likes 2 Shares |

BloomingDale: I have always noted and respected your post. You talk sincere. Yet outright break up, for too many reasons, is not possible. It will be resisted, by those who feel they cannot crawl let alone walk, to then lead to a period of egoistic and unproductive Sabre-rattling. This is what Yoruba leaders have discerned hence their insistence on regionalism. Regionalism is the next best option, aside break up that will be almost impossible to achieve while the North controls the majority in our legislative houses, that will allow all of us to have autonomy and control of our regions and pace of progress. Believe me, if regionalism is achieved and holds sway going forward, our children will achieve break up of Nigeria if that is want they want in future when we are gone and if they see that as the next level for them. For now, let us agitate for what is achievable that the reality of our existence can tolerate. As it is now, whoever is the next president will be under massive pressure to make restructuring concessions the autocratic Buhari, the last of the military dictators, outrightly refused to consider. The trick is for all of us to put ethnic, sectional and religious differences aside to insist on holistic restructuring of Nigeria Buhari single-handedly rejected while we all indulged him because we were too busy fighting each other. Trust me, even State/regional policing Buhari is vehemently against will transform your life in the SS massively if it becomes a reality tomorrow. There are fundamental changes that can be made, which frees everyone to make the best of their State and region, that will make you disinterested in the break up of Nigerian once those are implemented and bearing fruit. 2 Likes 2 Shares |

PROUDIGBO: Are you mad? Show anywhere in my post where I have agitated for Oduduwa. You think I am a delusional and ignorant Igbo man like you who can never operates with commonsense and pragmatic intelligence? Upon your misguided worship of Kanu, and your readiness to queue behind him and his murderous modus operandi, are you not all 'Obidullards' today and groveling for the votes of Nigerians to achieve your Peter Obi IPOB presidency? The average Yoruba is never your equal. He is blessed with wisdom and vision that always prevents him acting rashly to then suffer very dire and avoidably regrettable consequences. You have now leveled ala Igbo and mired her in terrorism yet your political leaders are still not behind you or even your new messiah Obi you have now relegated Kanu for. Meanwhile, with all Igboho's antics and with the support he gained from SOME Yorubas, our elected leaders still showed enough vision, bravery and pragmatically intelligent search for solutions that saw them come together to make the resolution below in favour of peaceful and productive demand for regional governance. You lot chose to queue behind terrorist Kanu and Ekpa who your elected political leaders failed to back but, crucially, also failed to condemn like the opportunist fence-sitting cowards and let-down they always are. Google it to note that Yoruba elected political leaders never sat on the fence over Igboho. They made it crystal clear they were not supportive of his seccession agenda. The problem with you Igbos is that your are hatefully ignorant and extremist yet feel you cannot learn from others who are are moderate and measured. That is why you go from one grave mistake, usually centred around following one maniac or the other, be it Ojukwu or Kanu/Ekpa, to other grave and avoidable mistakes. 3 Likes 1 Share |

r4bbit: I agree Omoluabi don't brag but what is bringing this out in the modern Yorubas, and will continue to do so in greater measures, if not how the Yoruba man walking in his own lane happily continues to be poked in the eyes by insecure and hateful elements determined to drag superiority over him? When El Rufai said hate begets hate who do you think he was referring to? Everyone is fed up of Igbos but few have the bravery to tell them to behave and stop priming hatred and protectionist bragging in other Nigerians. In civilised climes, no one tolerates racists and supremacist bigots. Those people are put in their places. So far as other don't want to call out Igbos then let OP and others like him 'shade' them. No one should have the monopoly of supremacist ethnic baiting. We all must make the effort to get sense together or remain hateful and stupid together because Igbos have proven that they view anybody trying to rise above their idiocy as weak and someone they are 'enslaving' and 'dominating' in his own domain. Yorubas are simply one of the most talented, accomplished and outstanding ethnic group out of Africa even as Omoluabi don't brag yet remind me who makes it their life mission to portray us as weak, dominated, lazy, cowardly, unambitious etal. I back what OP is doing because you don't capitulate to hateful sadists and bigoted bullies. You throw it right back in their face. 3 Likes 1 Share |

They are about what the majority adjudge as undisputed facts. You people should learn humility. It is your desperation to always proclaim yourselves superior, even with lies and fallacies, now making other Nigerians aware of a dark need to identify themselves by ethnicities rather than as Nigerians.
