Why Are Only Igbos Getting Attention When Nigeria Has 250 Ethnic Groups? by SSFeedsNigeria: 10:02pm On Dec 24, 2023
Who else has noticed that only Igbos are being discussed in Nigeria everyday? Go to Twitter, nairaland, and virtually every social media platform or forum and you will see that discussions are always about Igbos. Any foreigner who comes to nairaland will think Nigeria has only two ethnic groups i.e. Igbos and others.

Don't others feel unimportant and neglected? Why all the focus on Igbos alone everyday? Why are they the center of attraction in Nigeria?

Sometimes, I feel sorry for minorities and others in Nigeria. It's as if they don't even exist.

Many reasons.

Igbo is the most hated tribe in Nigeria. Britain laid the foundation of the hatred.

But the major reason is that Igbo is the most resilient tribe in Nigeria. No other tribe in Nigeria has experienced the terrible things Igbo has survived.

So, sometimes the attention is admiration. Sometimes, the attention is hatred.

I saw this clip on Twitter yesterday but find it hard that Igbo will go desperately low to go sell drug in Taliban republic of Afghanistan.

Anyway, the flogging no be here the devil 😈 himself no fit flogging person thoroughly pass this one. Please enjoy the video.

I posted this yesterday by the Igbo NL mod keep deleting the video for whatever reason.
Is it that we can not post anything incriminating criminals n fools among us Nigerians again or what ?

Does it mean only Igbos can post n declare Tinubu a drug baron ? The author of this clip did specify the Igbo being beaten thoroughly to remove the foolishness he inherited from birth peddled drug in Taliban territory but NL biased Igbo moderator no gree hear am as Igbos are now saints.


Biafrans authority should go n rescue the guy should Nigeria Army fails.

Igbo is a nation and not just an ethnic group, during the Civil war when igbos fought Nigeria backed by soviet union, Britain, Egypt, Chad, Cameroon, Niger, and Arab world was when the world composed of akk the world empire jointly contributed efforts to stop another world empire from emerging.

You're wrong. It's actually other Nigerians that keep talking about Igbos, and it's mostly to denigrate them. Igbos on their own are forceful in their pushback thus it gives rise to a stalemate that ensures Igbo maintains the center of discussion in Nigeria.

Meanwhile, what has the op's handle got to do with Igbos being the most popular group in Nigeria?

Jeon:
Cuz they suffer from inferiority complex,this is why they are trying so hard for others to notice them by pushing down some written gullible trash.E.g check the Op's handle.

Igbo are never hated in Nigeria.. Igbos are the strength of minorities tribe..

In every indigenous ethnicity in Nigeria.. igbos are next majority.. if they re hated.. they ought to have been fighting.. but they live side by side with this people for years .. without noise..

Except for Yoruba tribe of western Nigeria.. that sees igbos as competitors.. knowing tmigbos are superiors to them .. base on their ego..

Tell us aside Yoruba people..

Which other tribe out of 450 tribes .. has ever make a foolish statement of Igbo should leave their community

Igbos are loved in Nigeria.. wella.. visit the north

Have you heard of any yoruba market or Yoruba matters in the North or south south.. ?

Igbo hatred is a Yoruba thing..

Take a nairaland survey for a start.


Igbos are country topic because of grace.. they carry grace wey no tribe carry

They go to interior of any village and in matter of time .. are established

None other tribe get am

It’s grace.. of almighty on a tribe..

Like the Jews .. but they ain’t no Jews

It's the KAMORU, RAZAK, SODIQ and Lateef group in the South west region that are obsessed with Igbos. sad smiley

If we could carve out a Country for them, nobody could be Disturbed about Igbo again in Nigeria. sad

They are ones that spread Unnecessary Lies and Propaganda against Igbos. undecided

I don't want him to limit his post to other Nigerian tribes. That's my point. They are not well liked outside Nigeria too. They need to look inward especially when everyone are pointing their fingers at you.

The south Africans are specifically calling them flat head Nigerians and are even using the word Igbo. The Thai police man said Igbo. You can only hide under the Nigerian tag for so long.

Igbo is stoic and resilient.
The strongest tribe in Nigeria.
If not Igbo, Southern Nigeria would have been colonized by Fulani.
Fulani,a minority tribe backed by the then Buhari led federal government.

It's not unusual that Igbo will always be a center of attention.

If you are in a crowded elevator with ten other people and you hear and smell a fart, one person amongst you was guilty of it.
