I love Igbos shaa...! Anything they determine to do, they do best. No need hating them.
The Cantonese and the Zhejiang people of China are just like the Igbos, very industrious. But instead of main land people hating them, they embraced them such that Eastern China which was known for Agriculture, now boasts of technical know-how and industrial growth. Our education is useless and that's why we hate tribally instead of finding the way to benefit from that tribe. China has tribes too.

My problem with these minorities in the Niger-delta is that their laziness and narrow-minded way of reasoning has affected their prosperity. They don't enjoy anything from "awa oyel" at their backyard. None of them own a single oil well. Their lazy reasoning is even affecting the Ikwerres.

The babanriga-dollar-stuffing gworo-chewing coke-color-toothed governor. He made great sense. Fulanis should stop suffering the cows by roaming to down south.
And from my observation, individual business men are already preparing to go into cow ranching and its cross-breeding. RUGA crisis has opened other doors to business savvy Southerners.

Could this excellence be one of the reasons Obasanjo refused Igbo the chance to deputize Yaradua in his epistle as shown below? You know..., black people hate and envy hard working people.

''WHY IGBOS ARE AHEAD OF OTHER TRIBES IN NIGERIA
– Olusegun Obasanjo

Former President of Nigeria, Chief Obasanjo has revealed reasons why Igbos are ahead of other tribes in Nigeria. It will be a task impossible to actualise for the Igbos, to follow the Yoruba’s Ideology. The Igbos are more republican by nature, which is why it is very difficult for you to tame such a tribe.

From the extensive research I did on the three major tribes, I find out that the Igbos are the most westernized, most enterprising, most astute, most dynamic, most intelligent (smart), and the most technically gifted tribe found among the black race. The Hausa/Fulani and the Yorubas have limitations. But an Igbo man doesn’t see any limitations.

An average Igbo man is highly competitive, unlike the Yoruba and the Hausa/Fulani. While the Yoruba and the Hausa/Fulani had kingdoms which enabled the British to infiltrate their territories easily, the Igbos on the other hand, had what could be called “Chiefdoms” (autonomous Communities). These structures made it very difficult to tame the Igbos.

It took the British just 9 months to tame the North and South West but almost 30 years to be able to tame the Igbos. The British had to send a team of anthropologists to the South to understudy the Igbo because, they (the British) acknowledged they hadn’t been up against a black race with such depth and intelligence coupled with the gut to confront the whites and learn from them so, so fast.

While a Tinubu, can have unrestricted influence over the Yoruba tribe, something you can only find mostly among blacks and some poor nations on earth today, an Igbo man can never be tamed by the ideology of one man unchecked, no matter how highly placed he or she is. That’s why the Igbos are very successful no matter where they find themselves. They don’t believe in putting limitations on their path. You can only find such similarities among the Europeans, the Americans, and developed Asian tiger nations.

A Hausa/Fulani man sees Kano as his world. A Yoruba man sees Lagos as his world. An Igbo man sees the world as his Village!''

All these fake pastors have successfully commercialized Christianity and got it killed: they fly on private jets, they build schools unaffordable to their members who contribute the money, they live ostentatiously on the shoulders of the poor who contribute.
In politics, they don't represent the ordinary people, they see white and say it's red. Their prophecies are just intellectual and experiencial guess work. Above all, nobody believes them any more. Haven't they killed Christianity?

Udo diri gi, Eze Nwanyi!!

MelesZenawi:
I doubt of u read this interview.

They are Anioma ethnic group.


Is now clear than over 94 percent of nairaland so only reads headline

It's you that read and didn't understand! The Queen said Anioma people are Igbos separated from their kiths by the river Niger, although some descended from Benin, Igala and Nnri where all Igbos originated. All the local dialects she mentioned are purely in Igbo language.
IGBO AMAKA
CONGRATULATIONS OUR QUEEN!!!!

Tunde, sorry Thunder faya Shagay claiming "I too know".
