tonychristopher:
Yorubas and big mouth

With all their political sophistication yet tinubu pocketed them mentally and economically

GeneralBosco:

Please if you intend deceiving yourself, do that solely without misleading the public. Patience Jonathan is only interested in her husband's reelection and not women empowerment. In her about 5 years of being First Lady what programmes has she created?? What empowerment has she provided for women in different parts of the country? That's the empowerment we're talking about not going around shouting and insulting opposition like a mad woman

Installing the First Lady seat is not woman empowerment, it is what is done with that seat afterwards that matters. One would expect Patience Jonathan to list out how she has empowered women during her and her husband's 5 year tenure but instead she goes about creating hate and encouraging disunity with her hate induced speeches.

bigfrancis21:
That trait gives them an edge here in America. Nigerians have been observed to be hardworking, very self-confident, tough and very difficult to intimidate.

gatiano:
I have been awake a longtime. what do we need to chat about? Besides, the way you made your comment is such that light skinned are meant to be glorified and thus not referred to the non-black.
I beg for forgiveness if i have thought contuary to what you meant.

gatiano:
you think oyinbo is a good thing? it is a thing rejected, they are not meant to live forever. Except of the albinoes who have blackness far under their skin. The oyibo has no blackness whatsoever, they are totally recessive.

Peppyluv:
I hear you..yoruba women are too respectful....story..loud mouthed women,always ready to curse and shout. just few exceptions like Mrs Osibanjo.

@ GentleToks

What you said above actually is a complete TRAGEDY of immense proportion. Generation twisting histories to suit their tribal and ethnic ego, and handing over useless habits to younger ones.

However it was wrong of you to solely accused the Igbos of this. Am already in my mid-40s and I can tell you is the same (perhaps stronger) among the Yorubas.

Vast majority of Yoruba will rather re-echo tribal stories and beliefs instead of investigating same. No they will never because such fallacies favours them. Even on this thread a Yoruba fellow said his 'grand mother told him something...' and he came to public to use his granny ethnic folklore to debunk others belief.

Also have you observed many Yorubas denigrate the Edos and their cultural value? Have you observed many so-called history the Yorubas spurn about Benin/Edo just to obliterate and subjugate the Edo values to the black race? Please tell me did you ever investigate any of those 'histories' to ascertain the truth or you also swallow book, line and sinker?

Just a while ago I responded to a Yoruba guy describing the Great Benin Empire as 'landlocked' and claiming Itsekiris are Ijebus. My friend did you believe such folklore as truths or research further?

I will like to hear from you...

This is not about the odu, Osun, esu, Ogun or any of the gods. I will rather argue all day about my history than some stupid conjectured word

SirShymexx:
Lol.

Every the word "ni.gger" was never flipped that way.

This is a disservice to history, and Igbos are always guilty of rewriting history. They have got a great history and hyperbole is the bane of Igbo historians lol.

Justfollowit:
Give me something better

It is not even an Igbo word from what I read sometime ago. But I choose to believe their own version.

SirShymexx:
Ezeagu

Lol. Which is more logical:

- melanin deficient

- or calling Europeans the name they once called you loool.

Bear in mind that Igbos were the last to have any contacts whatsoever with Europeans...use that as a premise to whatever answer you might posit.

No point fighting over a word - but the Igbo theory is just illogical to an history buff lol.

kabiyesiii:
FATOYINBO has nothing to do with “Oyinbo”.
FATOYINBO is a contraction of Ifa to yin (praise), bo (peel off) ni ete (lips). That is, Ifa is so great, that you will praise it, till your lips peel off.

Justfollowit:
I will go with this

I disagree with the op's

kaorama:
Oyinbo was rather a derogatory remark made by the early white slave merchants to refer to an Ibo slave. It was transliterated Onye Ibo which means Ibo man. The early Whit slave merchant could not hide their preference for Igbo slaves whom they saw as hardworking. To register that preference, the whites usually asked for Onye Ibo which they themselves mid pronounced as Oyinbo. I have researched widely on this and can prove the word has its root in the Igbo history.

anonimi:
It is not a good move

seriously it is a GREAT move by a man who has the people at heart and will save Lagosians from Living in Bondage, Part 5.

He should do more of such and ensure we all get to know about such.

Meanwhile Fashola the present Governor of Lagos state has not visited the scene. Talk about how insensitive a governor can be but if it is to deport non-indigenes (he is not a lagosian himself) he will be the first person there

GboyegaD:
It is easier as a Nigerian to spot another most times because of our looks and the fact that often times, we try to greet every black people that come our way. Most people think Africans are Nigerians and that is why they will always ask if we are Nigerians.

GboyegaD:
No I do not agree with you for the following reasons:

How many times do people wear native attire abroad?
We are not loud people.
We don't hold or passports everywhere we go.
Leanne are not popular for people to know I am Nigerian.

Adaobi12:
Though what she did is very appalling, but the blame shouldn't be one sided. who knows what she has suffered in the hands of her husband and MIL.
hell hath no fury than the wrath of a woman scorned.
I wish the man speedy recovery sha. though some men deserves this kind of treatment.

Ngwakwe:
To Saharareporters, it would've been preferable if the contract was won by either a former military General, Otedola, Adenuga or Dangote.

What I was expecting was the shortcuts in the contract publications, bidding processes, NSA denial of certification.

Was there gross negligence of due process and associated presentations of paperworks?

The contract was awarded to Authur Eze is not a sad news nor is it unlawful.

This might not be 100% true but have noticed that most handsome guys end up marrying ugly girls, and u see some very beautiful and pretty girls with very ugly guys. why?
