You are from the south east bro
You have no south south brother
Stop "fanzin"
You need to ask yourself
Why are your people trooping to Lagos?
Because your Baby Factory Republic(bfr) is so backward
Lagos is the land of opportunities for you guys
And for your brothers that won in Lagos
That was before you people betrayed the madness and bitterness you've been hiding inside you
Now that we know how dumb and shallow you are
Let those your brothers contest for another election in Lagos
You people keep crying about betraying Jonathan
What do the Yorubas owe him?
When they gave him their full support in 2011, how did he pay them back?
How did he pay the whole Southern Nigeria back?
Your dumbness won't make you study history
When ojukwu contested for presidency, why didn't you "loyal" ibo people vote for him
Even Edo state, same south south with Jonathan didn't vote for him
But the Yorubas should because he was so good to us
And go and check the results again
The whole South east gave him only 2.4m votes
The south west gave him 1.8m
So what else do you expect especially when apc had a Yoruba vice president candidate
You people should stay the _fuck down and respect elders
The fact that you sell garden egg in Lagos roads doesn't make you irreplaceable

Tell them the truth
Bunch of brainless cowards
We've been too quiet here and they think we don't know their history
Awon omo alainiran
Baby factory products

Probz:
I won't argue with that. My bad for misreading.

That doesn't change the fact that there's documented evidence of Ndigbo using oyibo (albeit in an earlier form) since the 1700s. Where's the evidence that oyibo was derived from oyinbo?

Probz:
Nah mern. You're the one saying that we're reducing African culture to words spoken by some white man. And who's this oyibo of whom you dey speak?
If that was in reference to Equiano, I'm shocked.

Probz:
Oludah Equiano was a white man? And you go call call someone else foolish? No wahala. Continue o jare

Probz:
Still looks more red/yellow to me than white.

Probz:
Oyinbo is Yoruba, oyibo Igbo. Simples. We're debating which is the ORIGINAL. They both have convincing theories and etymologies. Try and understand that Mr Physicist.

Probz:
Oyibo may derive from oye-eboe, oyinbo from one nonsense Yoruba adage of peeled honey melanin equating to white skin. That doesn't make the form used by the Igbos (and the rest of Southern Nigeria) any less authentically and natively Igbo.

Probz:
You can keep your oyinbo, onyibo, oyingbo, and all these other silly western remixes. Oyibo as used by Igbos/Binis is as Igbo as Agukwu Nri.
