And Sunshineg5 you have to stop claiming warri, we Yorubas are too great to be attaching ourself to small minority tribes.

We ain't Ibos that beg for unity, if you noticed the Yorubas in Kwara and Kogi are the one trying to be with their brothers not the other way round, we shouldn't be the one to beg like the Ibos.
Sir Anthony Enahoro tried everything for Mid west region to be part of Western region.... That's Yoruba greatness.

Stop saying their are Yorubas in Delta, they should be the one to claim us.

Igala is a Yoruboid language

Nowenuse:
Igalas and Okuns (Kogi west) shared boundary until the Ebiras came from Kwararafa and put them asunder.

Look at the map of Kogi state below. There are Igalas in Ajaokuta & Bassa LGAs and there are Yorubas (Oworo) in Lokoja LGA. Tell me how far these places are from each other if not a stonethrow.

If not for Kwararafan colonization, Igalas (Okpoto people) would have been part of the Yoruba nation just like Okun.

Cc 9jakool forgiveness

Problemkid1:

obaaderemi:
Aworis are Yoruba.

Problemkid1:

Abohboy:
People from Calabar are not igbo and people from Lagos are not Yoruba, Lagos is the awori tribe who were part of the Benin empire so if your from Lagos than you are Edo or bini however you want to call it but you cannot split people into three groups when there are more than 500 different ethnic groups and other 750 different languages and dialects I am a mix of four different ethnic groups, I am from Kano, Anambra, Ogun and Delta state please RVP you know not what you are speaking so just SHARRAP !!!!!! Before you annoy me and the rest of us

Abohboy:
Not all igbos hate Nigeria out of the 40 million igbo in Nigeria about 2 million want to split and hate Nigeria please do not spread fallacies I am part igbo and I hope for the best in my country.

rvp20182:
Sammy is, without doubt, a Yoruba. Yoruba is like a little child. Get excited over nothing. Vaxx is also a Yoruba. He'd be happy to be one of those Ghana pall bearing dancers. For them - everything is a big elaborate ceremony - this is common in most African tribes. They are just happy go luckly. Igbos are like Bantus - very hardworking - they can dig and dig - and have almost protestant work ethic.

rvp20182:
The Igbos knew from early that they were getting a raw deal in Zoo. Here we are dealing with Yorubas and Hausa. Yorubas are easy to spot. They are mostly the Lagosians and Abidjan. I'd put Sammy, Obaboon, and Daniel there. The Hausa are likes of Ibrahim, Enchanter, couple of ladies - they sell Abuja and the northern cities..Igbos are closer to Bantus. The Yorubas - extend all the way to Ghana - so Vaxx and likes. They are just typical African - likes to party and engage in elaborate ceremonies. Hausas are typical Muslim - nothing is important as Islam. Their religion is no 1 - and everything else 2nd. The highligt of their life is to visit Mecca and stone Ibilis (the satan). The most primitive people on planet earth. Them Muslims.

mtisTheQubit00:
rarely do you see an igbo here..

rvp20182:
They are niot igbos. Igbos are embittered by Zoo. They know they can do better. They are mostly Yorubas and Hausas. I can almost tell.

We covered this 2 yrs ago before you came: THESE GUYS HAVE MORE INDIANS PER CAPITA THAN WE DO!? IIRC IT'S LIKE 2.5 TO 1.
Here's a link to Indian biz in Naij.

[url][https://www.hciabuja.gov.in/prominent-indian-companies-nigeria.phpurl]

They along with Lebanese actually control shipping, large real estate projects and the little remaining manufacturing.
I get banned whenever I copy paste the link. Google this Indian: stallion group Nigeria.
Being the infantile pathological liars that they are Naijjans keep looping back to this ishyt when it would be wiser to remain silent.

AmuDimpka:
Before we can take you serious get back ilorin

samorobo:
Enugu is hill-ly and beautiful..with green spaces and good roads

Danielnino00:
Talking about multiculturalism, the Chagoury brothers who are the key people behind the Eko Atlantic project and other huge projects in Nigeria are actually Nigerians... .


Yet,some fools down south think we know nothing about multiculturalism.. lol..

samorobo:

Probably true - military or oil destroyed Nigeria - and it's yet to recover.

obaaderemi:
This is true. After the Korean war of the 50s, South Korea was a very poor country for years. What lifted them out of poverty were the aids they received from America. You know the South Koreans had America as an ally while North Korea had Russia as its ally.
Money, machineries and knowhow poured into South Korea. The Koreas were another testing grounds for the capitalism and communism systems to show the world which was better.
A lot of aids had poured into Africa too but one difference between the African countries and South Korea was preparation and a sense of patriotism. Koreans valued education greatly. By 1970 their literacy level was close to 90%. And there was no tribalism unlike Africa.

I think people should stop using the negative influence of the west as an excuse for Africa's backwardness. We lack a sense of belonging to our different countries.

Look at Kenya, every election time people get killed wantonly based on ethnicity. Look at Nigeria and the menace of the northerners.

Ghana has a very good chance but it continues to squander it on the altar of poor leadership.
Ghana can very easily be a beacon in Africa if it gets its acts together. Brilliant people, small country, gold, oil, cocoa, almost everything!

Black South Africa is a very peculiar case and it illustrates a good example of a people giving up in the battle of survival of the fittest because they erroneously believe they ain't as good as the other race.
It can be very enervating when you dwell on Africa's case.

theenchanter:
there's never a point in time when S. Korea was poorer than Nigeria.

African country only seem rich cos of their vast natural resources. unfortunately, a country's wealth isn't buried in earth crust, a country's wealth is in its people and not kms into d ground.

S.Koreans didn't come to Nigeria in search of job, as a matter of fact, they came to have a cut of the pie disguised as nationals.

Shma:
what does this supposed to mean?,
Your question at bolded is what we're discussing.
Lagos lags behind Nairobi in urban planning.

ChrisKels:
I just say make I ask, forgiveness and co, abeg how far Lateef Omidiji Junior, the much heralded so called wonderkid cum Messiah of Nigerian football? He dun reign finish already dis one wey nobody dey hear his noise again?

Lionessza6:
Dont know about South Korea ever being poorer than many African nations, perhaps you could educate me more on that.

Like I said before, Africans cannot go far without teaching its people who the threats are ,how they keep winning etc. Also,we have the issue of religion and adopted cultures. As long as we still have educational systems that teach us how to be great negropeans and Arab- niggas , we will always be looking for a master.

I will expand on this in the evening.

Shma:
a small section of Accra is planned,.
But I don't know why you left it out at first place
Have you read Accra history,?

Shma:
there is nothing new that I don't know about Lagos,
Lagos is not planned.
Eko is a different project just like Konza, you can't call it a city when the land still lies dormant.
You brought something about city planning which your dim-witted colleague( samorobo) failed to grasp. When comparing planned cities basing on urban planning, Nairobi still ahead of Lagos, zoning law has failed you., environmental factor, rehabilitation plans, coding, and some infrastructural indices.
If we go by age, Lagos is older than Nairobi but still lags behind it, why? Urban planning is not favouring that city.

Shma:
@forgiveness, this is where we'll land if we go by your logic
Some cities were planned to be capital, just like Abuja, and all projects applied was to be at per with capital city standards.
Same to Konza, Konza is a planned city currently underway.
It started from scratch just to suit city dream of its own. Take a look.

This is a project in kenya
It's destined to be one of the cities in kenya.
