Adejoro74: You have to explain yours first before you expect an answer from another. Charity begins at home. Why do Yorubas drop out of school? Why is that that despite Igbos dropping out of school (as you claim), the number of Igbos in schools is still by far greater than that of your people? Your article was written in 2006. You are not current, dude.

We are dropping out just cause we feel like. Now answer my question, How does yorubas dropping out affect Igbo people doing drugs ?

Adejoro74: Is it so you can run to London and steal their money that you drop out of school? Why is 99% of Nigerian corruption reported in the UK perpetrated by your people?

dude you are getting boring. Yes Yorubas are very very bad, you still have not explained why the most educated Igbo boys are dropping out of school

Obi1kenobi: Are you some kind of mouthpiece for every Yoruba man. I'm pretty sure this entire thread contains many Yorubas with their spurious, unsubstantiated claims about their pre-eminence. I've even seen a lot of their newspaper columnists sink to the same level in trying to stereotype the SE as a bunch of traders who don't go to school. Yet not a single stat supports their pretentious claims to erudition and sophistication. Infact, those unfortunate to travel to the Yoruba states like Ekiti and Oyo for NYSC or other pursuits often express surprise at the general backwardness.

If you claim they're not in competition with any group, I don't want to hear anyone's spurious claims about the number of Professors Ekiti or Ondo produce - particularly with no factual backing.

Shut it, Igbos are the best, Yorubas are just aljmajiris just as their northern brothers

so f-off and go carry cup. Igbos are the msot educated, we fit rest now ?

Adejoro74: The man who reported the Yoruba almajiri is Yoruba, Hakeem Jamiu

it seems like you are not reading well. I SAID YES WE ARE ALJMAJIRIS, ABEGOROS ETC

Is that the reason why Igbo boys are dropping out to go carry drugs ? Yes or No ? because it seems you are fasinated about yoruba too much thus we would like to discuss why the yoruba aljmajiri is causing Igbo boys to drop out and do drugs.

Well that is an Igbo man like you
