Are There ONLY Yorubas and Igbos on This Forum?

Where Is Everyone Else?

Nigeria has over 300 ethnic groups.

300 full languages.

But if you visit this site, you will be forgiven for thinking that only 2 ethnic groups exist in Nigeria.

Igbo and Yoruba.

Why is this?

Where are the voices of the Itsekiri, the Afang, the Berom, the Urhobo, the Mwaghavul, the Shanga, the Jaba, the Ijaw, the Kanuri, the Ebira, the Igala, the Nupe, the Ibibio.

IS THERE EVEN ONE SINGLE IBIBIO PERSON ON NAIRALAND?

Any Jukun person?

Ogoni?

Oron? Dendi? Tarok? Idoma? Edo?

Any Igede people here?

Damakawa?

Zarma?

Bahumono?

Kanembu?

Buduma?

Atyap?

Any ATYAP person around?

Where is everyone?

Some of these groups number MILLIONS of people.

But it's almost as if they don't exist in the Nigerian scheme of things.

Seriously marginalised. undecided

There are others but both Yorubas and Hausa-Fulanis sees everybody thats not Yoruba or Hausa-Fulani as Igbo.

Were you not here in Feb presidential election that they were calling all SS people as Igbos?

If you wanna verify, criticize Tinubu and you'd be branded Igbo immediately

Yorubas are the separatists. They want you to leave their lands where you settled in your millions.

You are the real UNITY BEGGARS, because there are even more of you in the north than the entire Igboland and SW combined.

Your actions (settling all over Nigeria in your tens of millions) speak louder than your words ('we hate Nigeria and want to secede')

I'm even surprised you haven't started dragging land ownership with Hausa people on their soil, Mr internet secessionist.

Exactly. It actually puts a lie to the claim that Nigerians are ''divided'. We are not divided.

It is only this Igbo v Yoruba nonsense.

Always a contest involving them plus Hausa Fulani.

One of them or the other always complaining of 'marginalisation'.

Nobody ever asks an Itsekiri man if he feels 'marginalised'.

Or the Mwaghavul people of Plateau state.

Ancestors of the Oriental Asians.

Nobody ever asks them their opinion of what is going on in Nigeria.

ARE THESE PEOPLE LESSER NIGERIANS?

Nah, not true. Most people from SS, especially Edo and Delta always take Igbos side when it comes to national issues. Although we might have few issues with them but in general we work better with Igbos.

Just like GEJ. The Ijaw usually have issues with Igbos but when it comes to national issues he work more with Igbos than Yorubas. At some point Yorubas felt marginalized.

Thank you my brother.

Don't mind that idiot.

I believe that these 'forgotten' ethnic groups we have are Nigeria's hidden joker.

I look forward to a Nigeria where the talents and unique cultures of these various ethnic groups are brought to the fore, and right up there with the 'big 3' in popularity and esteem.

I'm even considering setting up a restaurant with the worlds, NO IGBO, YORUBA, OR HAUSA FOOD HERE.

If you want to eat, come in and eat. We only cook traditional, exotic food from all the other ethnic groups apart from those 3.

It’s a usual garbage that comes from people whose only dream is to force their identity on others, hoping to include them in their imaginary country.

To even think that these are the same people that want others to believe that Fulani are the major problem of Nigeria.

If Igbos actually get a country which includes the south-south, they will be 100 times worse than the Fulani. They will foment WAR on the south south to eliminate them, completely.

They will never allow those people to control those oil and gas resources.

Their desperation to own and control those resources is the ONLY reason behind their secession agitation and hatred for Nigeria.

But they will never tell you that.

The way some of you write rubbish on Nairaland eh. So the main reason the Igbo people want their own country is so they can marginalize the South South people and own all the oil because the people in the South South are zombies who will just sit and watch as the Igbos takeover them. undecided
This is even an insult to the Niger Delta people because you obviously view them as primitive subhumans who don't know what is right for themselves. You really need medical checkup.

You are a really big "gboun" "obori".
I am an Ijaw from Bayelsa, so asides our so called political and militancy leaders who use Igbo hate as a currency to buy peanut favors from the Nigeria slave masters, the average ijaw man has no issues with the igbos. The ijaw man freely goes to Aba, Onitsha markets and co and do their buying and selling without any issues. The igbos work and trade in our lands without any issues. We inter-marry without any issue.
What is apparent to me as the issue between the Yorubas and the igbos is as a result of the fact that the Yorubas do not have an homogeneous Christian population as do the Igbo which would have produced similar outlook to life. The large Muslim population of the Yorubas have a similar dreams of the north–dominion.
This constant bickering would have been non existent if the igbos had a large Muslim population.

SHUT UP THERE, YOU LYING THIEF.

You think you can deceive anybody here?

If the south-south grew only bananas, would you be forcing 'brotherhood' on them?

Why can't you do your secession with just your 5 Igbo states, you THIEVES?

Yorubas and Igbos marry more than Ijaws and Igbos.

In fact 10 times more.

Igbos are the most confused set of people on Earth.

A people suffering from double personality syndrome.

One personality hates Nigeria and wants to secede.

The other personality can't wait to FLEE Igboland and settle in the very same Nigeria it claims it hates and wants to secede from!

I've never seen anything like it.

What you said is a known fact and that is why no South South or minority tribe will ever join in their imaginary country, as they are wasting their time. The experience the minorities had with them is what led to the agitation for a separate region from the defunct Eastern region even before independence, that eventually gave rise to the the creation of old Rivers and Cross River States.

Their parents don’t tell them the truth so some of them keep deluding themselves about their biafra that will include any minority tribe. It will only happen in the dream world.
