The Role Of The Three Major Ethnic Groups In Nigeria In Nation Building by Birdbyrde440: 7:39am On Dec 16, 2023
There are three major ethnic groups in Nigeria: Hausa, Igbo and Yoruba.

If you have carefully analyzed the behaviour of these three you will agree with me that each one has their area of specialization in the area of Nation Building.

The Hausas, socialist in nature should hold leadership and Military positions, the Igbos are next on this list after the hausa.

The Igbo, anarcho-capitalist in nature should control the money and business of the economy because of their ability to be good managers and create something out of nothing, the hausa are next on the list here.

The Yoruba are the real Republicans of Nigeria, they should regulate the economy both business and politics, they can be fearless and unwavering if they choose to. Next on this list is the hausa.

Igbos are bad in leadership roles because at the slightest opportunity of laxity among the other two, they might try to take advantage and dominate. This character is accepted in business but not governance.

The Yoruba are bad at business and economy, do you know I have about 20 igbo traders in my area that I have known for close to 25yrs and their business are still waxing strong, I used to know about 6 hausa business men in my area only one is standing strong, the only yoruba business I knew was selling kerosene but it crashed long time ago.

When it comes to law enforcement like tax collection, efcc, nafdac, and other regulations including things like stock market, the yoruba are number 1. The igbo and hausa tend to be lax after a short time in this area.

Igbos have been opportuned to rule several times like Ironsi, Azikiwe and recently Ebele Jonathan... heck Ojukwu led Igbos into biafra war.
In all they all made the same mistake.

Don't be fooled, ijaws are path yoruba and part igbo.

Bini people are the most civilised, independent people. Binis are survivalists and very clever.

Read the topic, its about the three major tribes.

@OP You made no sense in your writeup.. Yorubas are not good at business yet Lagos State, a Yoruba State remains the economic and commercial nerve centre of Nigeria.. I guess it's the Igbos that have been governing Lagos State, making policies for enabling environment for businesses to thrive.. next in line is Ogun State, another Yoruba State so what are you saying?

People will just carry phone and start typing trash..

Igbos are good, are this and that yet can't develop tiny South East that is the same size with Oyo State that Governor Makinde is handling well.. Ibadan alone is bigger that 3 South East States combined yet making progress.

Before you talk about those three major ethnic groups, you have to adk if anything brings three of them together beyond the fact that all three were lumped in one country by the British

All three ethnic groups reason differently, operate differently and see Nigeria differently

Which is why all three should have their own separate countries

So while we are talking about how to unify Africa as one entity you are trying to divide it further.
Even if the 3 are separated, isn't it the same political process and politicians that will mount the helm of affairs like Hope Uzodimma, Wike, Tinubu, Shettima, Obasanjo, etc
If you are unable to enforce meaningful changes in Nigeria, will you be able to enforce it separately?

Igbos have also been ruling themselves in the SE. Hope Uzodimma is Igbo, Nyesome Nwike is Igbo look at the mess they created?
Nwike was attempting state capture to the tune of N20bn monthly.

Igbos are Republicans.
Igbos are also Democrats.
Igbos are capitalist.
Igbos are communalists.

Clearly you know nothing about republicanism.
Who among all Igbos in history was more Republican than the great FELA ANIKPULAPO KUTI?

Governing Oyo state is not same as governing Nigeria.
Governor of Lagos state is not same as President of Nigeria.
Tinubu did well in Lagos, can same be said about His presidency?
List 10 yoruba business men that started a business from scratch without state funds and the business still runs today.

Theres no problem uniting people as long as it is voluntary. The purpose of unity is that together, we progress further, than individually

If we are together and our union has not made us progress, whats the point? We should be together 3fir the sake if being together? Is the Nigeria you see today progressing or getting worse? Has Nigeria progressed since 1960?

Nigeria has long failed and we should be talking about how to disintegrate this disastrous British colonial experiment that is unworkable

Ifeajuna, Simon ekpa..
Many people will hate me but I tell you the truth.
When it comes to the REAL movers and shakers of sports and entertainment globally give it to the Igbos.

But they hardly represent their country.

Yorubas represent Nigeria more that's why they are more Republican, they put Nigeria first. They are the only ones taking risks on behalf of Nigeria.
Despite the fact that NIGERIA doesn't treat them and other tribe's athletes well its only yoruba that mostly represents Nigeria and her flag proudly.
Igbos prefer to nationalise in Finland and UK. self interest capitalist group.
