I'm a Christian. My religion frowns at gays, transgender, Lesbians and crossdressing. However, my religion tells me not to discriminate. Not even the Pope, head of over 1 billion Catholics, will discriminate against a person because of their sexual orientation, or being gay.

In rich progressive countries of the world such as USA,Britain, Germany, Italy, Canada, to discriminate against a gay person because of their sexual orientation can attract a prison sentence. Gay rights are taken seriously. It is only in poor retrogressive countries such as Nigeria that you see people openly discriminate against gay people

I'm not a fan of Bobrisky, trans, crossdressers or LGBT, but I think it very wrong and backwards to discriminate against them for that. What two consenting adults decide to do inside the bedroom is none of my business, even if they are same sex.

What is it as a Nigerian do you think you know, that Britain, USA and Canada don't know? You think those countries are foolish for protecting their gay citizens? While you are busy bringing out laws that jail and punish yours?

You watch people openly abuse and mutilate the Naira every day and think nothing of it, but support Bobrisky going to jail for that, just because he chooses to live an alternate lifestyle? The same lifestyle that countries you pray to be like protect?

You don't have to like a gay person, but to discriminate against a gay person belongs in the stoneages, not modern society

Exactly, it’s so stupid

Sapasenator:
Nigeria is a country made up of generally stupid people in large numbers.
Why do you think the place is a shit hole?
Why do you think they keep voting for stupid politicians.

Emefiele is out on bail after stealing billions and no one is complaining.

Bobrisky has not held any public office or looted anybody's fund. Hell, people spray money every damn Saturday in parties and no one is being sent to jail without an option of a fine.

They may have big degrees, wear fine clothes and speak nice English, don't be deceived, the largest number of brainless and illogical individuals in the world reside in Nigeria.

This is factual. The average Nigerian is highly irrational

If you kn@ck a girl finish and she said am sorry for doing this to you. Abeg wetin she mean?

It’s over for you bro

Average Nigerian is an idiot, and as such, they’ve been starved off of so much potential
but that’s not their fault

Emmanuel900:
You are a liar Interswitch was founded by a Yoruba man from Edo state, Yoruba part of Benin. Look at you stylishly trying to claim Interswitch.

You are talking about Leetcode for beginners and newbie programmers when all the ranked programmers in Nigeria on Github are Yoruba

Search top programmers in Nigeria on Google and see who dominated the list, we also dominated tech and start ups in Nigeria and you say we are underperforming lol ? you are really very delusional.

Saying that leetcode is for beginners is stupid lol. If you think beginners are solving leetcode hard on their own then you must be mistaken. I highly doubt most senior engineers at top firms like google can solve those problems. Even experts in the field such as the founder of devinai solve problems on leetcode

What metric did they even use to rank those programmers on that list. Anybody can easily create an article and host it on the web and claim they’re the best programmer in the world, but you can’t forge leetcode rankings.

Show me the list where it shows Yoruba people topping the rankings with the GitHub stars

Idek how you’re going to do that when most of these accounts on GitHub are anonymous

My mistake, but guess which tribe leads verve international, the only product that makes Interswitch money

santaclaws:
Nope you ain't.

By the way, I never referred to you speficically as being poor, I said "some of you". It's all about corrections and reminding you that even if 90% of billionaires in Nigeria are Igbo (which isn't the case), you should only be concerned about your own wealth.

Otedola and Mike Adenuga's money doesn't mean the average Yoruba man is a billionaire, it's for their family and relatives alone. That's all.

Oh ok sorry for misreading. Also, I can discuss any topic I want. lol

Hawkler:
It is a free world you are allowed to write your fairytale also.

If you like don’t believe

But if you search up the top 20 richest and count how many Igbo people there are and you still don’t believe them sorry for you lol

EleventhWeirdo:
Okay, fluttwrwave will die off but interswitch will remain cos it's cofounded by your brother? This one thinks he is at his village meeting

Not saying that but I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s true

Jogs1900:
There was no billionaire in between 1950 to 1970

Compare currency from then to today

Slytiger:
The ones we know.

There are a lot more than these, but the question is how many of these are profitable? 5 years from now, most of these will die off

santaclaws:
How does that translate into personal wealth for you? Some of you don't have food tonight but you're dragging richest men's list on social media...

Don't face your work, body go tell you.

Bro I can bet I’m living way more comfortably than you, anyways, my personal life doesn’t have to do with the thread

EleventhWeirdo:
Lol this one capped sh!!t as fact and asked others to look it up. You think real wealth comes from 2*2 okrikka business or retail parts? Just the combined wealth of the many Yoruba software engineers alone will swallow all the nwaboi establishment worldwide. Hehehe dey play

Oh boy, I’m a software engineer living abroad myself. Most of my coworkers are Igbo. In fact, the owner of this startup I’m working at is Igbo. Everybody is doing software engineering nowadays not only Yoruba. Even in tech, yorubas still underperform, though there may be more Yoruba software engineers due to their population.
The highest score recorded on leetcode by a black person is an Igbo guy, profchi


What tech do we even have in Nigeria apart from fintech lol. As far as I know, verve is the most trusted one and even that is Igbo lead (compare payments processing volume)

Stop bringing up these ur silly tech companies that will zero in time

It’s not about quantity it’s about quality

You gave a statement and nothing to back it up

Okay enjoy your ignorance

I don’t care if you don’t believe me, doesn’t change reality

Go search it up

Cultivate the habit of doing your own research

raumdeuter:
Give us the list of the top 20 richest men and let us see

Odutola was from Ogun state

Ade Tuyo was from Ijebu Ode in Ogun state

My brother, search it up.

Why is it only that Lagos ogun axis but anyways sha it doesn’t matter. It’s expected.

Notice how all of the yorubas on the list are from Lagos

Today more than half of nigerias top 20 richest men are Igbo

What even is this article lmao

because he wasn’t the richest at that time doesn’t mean he wasn’t the first billionaire

Dey whine

banku:
Only God knows what happens to Igbo these days. A very proud people, comfortable with their heritage are now willing to exchange it for pittance.

In Nigeria alone, Fulani and Hausa have fairer skin people than anywhere. So are the Itsetkiri and people around the coast.

Yet, some Igbo celebrate light skinned or mixed race than anyone in Nigeria. Please chill, you are embarrassing yourselves inside and outside Africa.

You should go and compare the average Igbo man in the North to the average Hausa man there. Just because they look araboid doesn’t mean they are light skinned. I schooled in the North so I know what I’m talking about.

Out of all the Igbo people that I met in my school, only like 2 or 3 had darkish complexion, compared to the majority of Hausa Fulani there

I think it’s because of a high rate of albinism inland.

I myself am very light skinned but my eyes are black but my cousins have brownish eyes. I do know some Igbo people with almost orange eyes tho that look like albinos, although this is not common. However, it’s more common than Yoruba, because so many times I’ve mistakened some yorubas for south Sudanese people here abroad.

They should add small emotion into these buildings.

I swear. I’m not a buharist but all this wailing is crazy. They must find the most innocuous things to use and attack him.

East African women are hot but…

East African men are another specie
I don’t care what they want to call us or anything but it’s so strange how they are so malnutritioned and have such low iq

No hate to them but
What is their good?

Even if Nigerians had somehow found a way to prove that Igbo people don’t have access to the sea, An actual nation is better than a mere mythical contraption that has quenched the infinite potential of a large sect of the population. As we all know, empires built on a faulty foundation by oppressing some of the population to the benefit of others have collapsed. Take Rome or mongol for example. All it takes is 1 man with a mission. In conclusion, Nigerias destiny is inevitable and Nigerians should be happy.

Well spoken, I’m afraid grammatical errors and an inutile use of wording have made parts of your write up incomprehensible.I don’t believe that obi inspired any hatred during his campaign, and if he did, I’d like someone to upload concrete evidence. I imagine that The Igbo political class would fare better in a parallel universe where there was higher connectivity. As of now, Nigerian politics is dictated by tribal and religious affiliation not facts or figures, and that’s the reason why we’ve had buhari and now tinubu. A lack of access to information and a proportionally smaller access to truthful information in major parts of the company has rendered the majority population inherently destructive and easily swayed in the wrong direction.

It's only Losers that will always lose Faith in Governance because Why? you people dont know how to play the game of Politics. You are always too emotional.

Emotions vs Wise Strategy?
Strategy will always Win anytime anyday. Take it or Leave it.

Which wise strategy genius?
If you lot are so unemotional and wise, why is this the regular fate of your co-habitants?

The Igbo economic and societal dominance during the Nigerian preliminary era was callous, hence, genocide and the rise of sectarian politics. The philosophy of “Igbo enwe eze” allowed for their independent and disruptive thinking which allowed for easy transmission and adoption of new societal standards to distinction. If a Biafra was actualised during this era (ruled by great minds such as Dr. Michael Okpara), Africa would become significant in the world stage. I hierarchical and communitarian culture like that of the Yoruba and Hausa allow them to relate and coexist, but does little for the Igbo. Hierarchies coupled with a lack of individualism results in stagnation. The Igbo culture finds its uniqueness in its ability to accept deviance, however, this quality has been reducing over the decades with a rise of new learned conservatism from the Yoruba.
