What I Experienced Today At My Friend's Shop. by Sonnobax15(m): 8:26am On Feb 28
Good morning my fellow Nairalanders...How are you guys doing? Hope the economic shege don dey use style dey reduce for una side abi dem don raise am put for gear? grin

Any ways,that's that........ Just yesterday,my keke was faulty....So I had to go drop it at my mechanic's workshop while I left him to go buy some parts he would use to fix it up......... Along the way,I decided to branch my friend's shop who repairs phones and other gadgets, to at least say hi cuz it was long we last saw and chilled together......

Not quite long as we were having our conversation,an Hausa man came in..... Without being told,I realized he was my friend's customer due to the way they both interacted............ Before now,my friend and I were advising his apprentices who were fond of coming late to work......It was then the Hausa man told us his own story....... About how he met an igbo man in Imo state who transformed his life into who and what he is at this moment..........That his igbo boss trusted him so much that most times,he would even entrust in him with millions of naira to go and buy goods for him.........He was even speaking igbo fluently.............

To end the discussion,what really shocked me was the part when he said that tho other Hausa and igbo men may hate each other/one another but he will never do that......That as a matter of fact,he sees and considers every igbo person as his sibling.......I was so damned surprised........Of which I had to remember and think about how some people come online only to bash each other's tribe and religion,but in reality, there's unity and love among us .........

Omoh,Tho I learned a lot of lessons from his story but what really hit so hard on my heart was the fact that tribalism only prevails here on social media but on ground,we all love and need each other/one another to move our lives forward.....

So please,my dear brothers and sisters,let's try as much as possible to shun tribalism and religious sentiments,cuz when we do that,I can see no limit to what we can achieve together,as a people and as a nation........One love from me@ sonnobax✌️

The thing dey surprise me too, online you will see dem going at each other like sworn enemies but in the streets it's not like that. Is it that the Hausas, Igbos and Yorubas you see in markets, workplaces and the streets are not the same as those on social media?

Politicians have succeeded in dividing us along religion and tribal lines. They know when there is unity among us, they won't achieve their evil agenda on us but the dumb amongst us continue to champion their coast at the detriment of all us knowingly or unknowingly.
I was listening to a program on radio, i was glad how Muslims assisted a Christian man to get justice and vis visa. The day remove these toxic in our system, that ll be the end of bad leaders occupying position.

You're right cheesy. 2 of my childhood friends are yoruba and they told me that they aren't marrying Yoruba girls. They only want to marry Igbo girls. Although I stay in a town dominated by Igbos.

I think the ones bashing themselves on NL don't travel.

Tinubu has commissioned you guys to start spreading lies on social media about fake unity amongst the three troublesome ethnic groups in Nigeria.

There's no single strand of love or trust between Igbos, Yorubas and Hausas Fulanis in Nigeria. They all hate and distrust each other and they're also the problem of Nigeria as they keep dragging for who will produce the president of Nigeria in this "winner takes all" type of democracy we practice that ensures there's perpetual strife and acrimony in the country.

Divide Nigeria and let each group find their square root. The three of you have constituted enough problem. It's time to dissolve the fake marriage arranged by Lord Lugard

let us all be HONEST with the issue... just as there are many people who have no issues with other tribes, many people in Nigeria hate people from other tribes.... and thats ok. you cant force people to be what they are not. TRIBALISM is not a "today" issue and it will never go away (just like racism).

There will always be naysayers like you thrive in these tribal conflicts.

You think everybody has a dark soul like you. People like you eat and breath along ethnic and tribal lines.

I hate and despise people like you with a passion. Pathetic.

Go back through all ny post for the past 10 years and come edit the rubbish you wrote above.

Nigeria is a country filled with people who don't like or trust each other. It's a fact that IGBOS, YORUBAS and HAUSAS/FULANIS don't like or trust each other. Why keeping them together and then causing so much suffering for everyone in the process?

So saying the truth as it is hurts your eyes right? You're equally hated and despised. Again, your brain is full of shít

Consoling una selfs with comforting lies when things like that are EXCEPTIONS and probably OUTLIERS while the real world reality(mostly among the masses) in politics, culture, ethnic clashes, civil war, marginalization, tribal taunting etc. is happening, has happened and will continue happening.

Outgrow the comfort lies and feel good emotional emotions that exceptional stories like this make you feel, and maybe, just maybe you Nigerians will probably be PRAGMATIC about the things that needs to be done for the benefit of each and every 250 tribes in Nigeria even if that includes going separate ways.
