If only you will balance the story by telling us bad you did to others just as you have told us what imaginary Igbo people did to you.

We all know the Tribe that do bad things to People. And they are quick at wailing online, claiming to be victims.

There's one question I have for you and people like you. A question that I already know you will run away from

How come you hate Igbo but don't hate Fulani? You say you are from Delta State but Fulani herdsmen killed 14 people in Ika just last week. Fulani herdsmen have attacked and killed people in almost every community in Delta State, and every state in the South South, in the last 5 years

So why have you never written long epistle against Fulani? Fulani herdsmen were killing people in all 6 geopolitical zones in Nigeria, but that did not stop Nigerians from electing and re-electing a Fulani man called Buhari as President

Can you imagine if it were Igbo that was killing Nigerians in all 6 zones? Destroying farm lands and raping women?

So please tell us this incredible thing Igbos did that pained you, but Fulani killing you did not pain you so much to hate them

Fulani are more tolerant than Igbo. Even though, they are Cousins

First and foremost. I am from the Niger Delta and the Igbos are the closest relatives we have but the truth must be said without bias or favouritism.

Growing up, i never truly understood why people in Warri(Agbarho) would say "no one should sell land to Igbo man'. It was not hate, but something the Urhobo observed about the nature of the Igbo men wanting to snatch their lands and impose dominance.

My people don't really like the Igbos. I didnt know why at first until i was a victim of an Igbo man. We had a striving business until an Igbo man came close and opened a shop next to ours. Within few weeks, he would stand close to the road and whenever someone wanted to enter our shop, he would call them and lure them over. It was a very annoying character, some of these people would later inform us that the igbo man was saying our products are substandard and that our price are way too higher.

I didn't stay enough to tolerate the nonsense because i later stopped going to the shop and left the business to my younger brother. Months later, i went to the shop and was surprised how the Igbo man would draw people away and even have the audacity to come to our shop to collect goods for them.

My stupid brother allowed this to happened. It was a very difficult times for our business. His desperation to make money would drive him to even kill a man.

They actually did something that led to the death of my father, that's a story for another time.

I had a girlfriend at home before i gained admission into the university. Then one holiday, my girlfriend told me that same igbo man came to her and told her i wont marry her and that am promiscuous and was only using her, and so much more. The igbo man was troubling the little girl and because of her incessant complain of what the Igbo man was saying to her, i decided to stay off. I left the girl.

Barely six months later, she was pregnant and abadoned. How time flies!

Still i never hated an entire tribe because of the evil of some of the people. I can say more than hundred of evil that igbo men had done to me and my family in Warri. One of such time, an igbo woman poisoned our dog, yes, we know she did it because she was our tenant and when the dog was vomiting, it was same thing she had on her. Plus, she had often threatened to kill the dog for invading her rented space.

It was very painful because that dog was our first dog and my elder brother bought me that dog the day i was born. I was about 10 when the dog died. Same years as the dog, i cried and for the first time in my life, i saw tears on my Dad's face.

Alot happened since then bt let save them for later...

Many years later, i went to lagos to stay with a friend. And one of those days, my car got broken and i decided to take public transport.

I got into one and while the car was still in transit, a man(presumably a yoruba man), did something that got a lady pissed off in the cab. I interfered and told the man his wrong and the next thing he said to me was "These Igbo boys, we go deal with all of ona..." i could read the hate on his expression. But i was no Igbo boy, as a matter of fact, i am an Urhobo boy, a tribe so complex that wont even sell a piece of land to Igbo or yoruba man.



So many tribes Hate Igbo and i don't imagine why. They are full of themselves and think the entire country revolves around them, they forget they are just one out of 250 ethnic group in Nigeria.

The yoruba man feels threatened by the existence of the Igbo man. I don't blame them. Even i feel repugnant at the character of many of them, mostly my current Neighbor that defames me at all opportunity.

But we must learn to co exist. The bad eggs are many but that doesnt mean we should throw away the entire basket. The Igbo man has wronged me even more than many people attacking them, bt i can't hate an entire ethnic group because 100s of them stepped on my toes.

Fighing and hating on Nairaland is not the right way to express yourself. Like the Bible says" doing the right thing, is what makes a nation great".

Don't be a tribalist ( almost like Racist), let learn to tolerate and coexist, but don't sell your land to them o... Lol.

Anyways, please lets coexist

Have you ever bothered to find out why they call you people urhobo wayo?

You urhobos are like black sheep in the entire SS.
Bunch of lazy men who only know how to drink ogogoro and get drunk while your women do all the work....we are very sure you will embrace and kiss the Fulanis killing people upandan..better go and get ready to cut off ya foreskin grin

Fulani herdsmen are killing them you claim, but they other tribes all seem to detest you still, then you ought to know that something is definitely wrong with you.

And that's what I need explanation to. Why is it that Fulani herdsmen are killing you Nigerians in all 6 geopolitical zones, but you don't hate Fulani, you Nigerians even elected and re-elected a Fulani man called Buhari while his herdsmen brothers were massacaring you, but it is Igbo that is your problem? If you guys don't like Igbo, support them to go their way as Biafra.

That's your problem. You think people are unjustly criticizing you.

I'm an ardent Obi supporter, you can go through my previous trends

Some of ur folks are terrible people, so also in every ethnic group, but certain traits are perculiar to some ethnic group. The perculiar traits is what we point out.

But you must realise that i don't hate your ethnic group and wont advise anyone to hate them too. Go through all my comments.

To me, discrimination based on ethnic group is similar to racism, bt that doesnt stop me from pointing out what i see, or from experience my view.

Good speed and stay blessed

Igbo presence in Warri is quite minimal and it's getting smaller by the day. Warri business environment is very hostile, land swampy and purchasing power weak. Igbos are much more attracted to Asaba. Being more peaceful, receptive and vibrant, and for obvious cultural reasons, Igbo presence there is increasing.

I wonder which Igbo is demanding land from you in Warri to start with. I suspect you are a fake moniker and I expect Warri people to dissociate themselves from you.
