Sterope:
I know a lot of tribalistic Yorubas. I heard some don't even rent out to Igbos

just because the major tribes in Nigeria don't have their own countries does not mean they should not see themselves as a country.

you call Yorubas who are majorly domiciled and living in their own region tribalists then what will you call a ghanaian who lives in any region in Nigerian and only hires other ghanaians while neglecting the indigenes ( I only used ghanaian as a reference since they are not a tribe in Nigeria).

there are over 30 million yorubas and over 30 million igbos, out of the 30 million igbos, let us assume 12 million live in the yoruba region, while living in the yoruba region they accuse Yorubas of not hiring igbos, of been tribalistic to igbos e.t.c.

do you want yorubas to give to the igbos what is supposed to go to the next Yoruba generation all in the name of emotional blackmail done to the yorubas

no need arguing with you. Just so you know, this is how Racism was propagated.

This is not racism or tribalism.

This is observing the social behavior of an ethnic nation and taking note. You don't even understand what racism is.

Tecord1:
i will not spoon feed you sir. If you can't sought out elders who were around during the time or do google search then carry on with this mind set of yours. The internet is there for our learning. I will advise you that before you talk about anything that concerns a group of people, do well to research so you don't give out wrong information.

if you can't give me the right information then you're ignorant and do not know what or where to get the right information..

the one on google is also someone's "quote" and "opinion".. it does not mean its the right information.

I don't need elders to tell me what I have researched and observed.

DonMekino:
exactly why we have failed to grow, always burying the truth. am Igbo and I don't really buy into ethnic politics, but truth is, I once saw a Yoruba man teaching children how to hate Igbo ppl, honestly I felt bad, because he was feeding them with lies, I thank God that I got along with the some of the children, who already mingled with both ppl, but posts like this always tries to twist history....no wonder it was removed from the school curriculum. our common problems are not u and I, but the greedy older generation that are forcing us to make the same mistakes that they made, will u allow them?

what truth is been buried

Yorubas are meant to be pro-yoruba, Igbos are meant to be pro-igbos e.t.c without interfering in each others politics, developments, education e.t.c..

igbos will have wiped out most of the yoruba nation during the civil war if their attack was successful and had gone beyond Ore..

so protecting ethnic interests especially within that ethnic group's region became very important after the civil war... the problem is most Yorubas don't even know that the rest of Nigeria does not mean well for the yorubas and yoruba nation.

Tecord1:
i laugh when i see quotes of this nature. A simple google about Nigeria civil war should enlighten you. Well i blame the government for removing history from our school curriculum. Get the right information before coming out to dish out false info.

I laugh when I see comments like yours telling people that "A simple google about Nigeria civil war should enlighten you"...

If you truly had knowledge and information about the civil war then please fee free to debunk my quotes with facts or your version of "the right information"...

Daddysidhan:
Why do some igbos hate Lagos.

because they are not in control of lagos.

its one of the reasons they started a civil war to try and take control of all the regions in Nigeria even though they were doing okay in their own region...

its also the behavior some humans have towards others they feel are doing better than them
