Politics / Re: 250k Flight Ticket, Igbos Are Not Doing Better Than Others by Ngozi123(f): 4:16pm On Dec 05, 2023 |
I don't get the point of this thread. So many anti-igbo bigots like the op have never failed to remind Igbos that we do not belong in Nigerian politics. Some Igbos have accepted this and encouraged themselves with the fact that, regardless of who is ruling the country, we will be fine and successful. Why are you so mad at the notion that Igbos are doing well? What kind of envy is that? 1 Like |

horsepower102: Exactly. He should have said "from the data we have..." While it's good news that a lot of South-Easterners had access to healthcare facilities, more research needs to be done into this. |

Gajagojo: I really don't care if this is true or not but your disdain for albino people is sickening. There's nothing wrong with them. |

Gajagojo: I don't think the analogy you've used is accurate. A more apt one would be the Korean and Japanese writing systems. They are in many ways similar but also different too. You cannot use the Efik form of Nsibidi/Nsibiri to formulate Igbo words (as you can with Latin letters and Yoruba). There are completely different symbols (letters) in each that do not exist in the other. If you were to say that Igbo Nsibidi/Nsibiri was derived from the Efik one then I think your argument would make more sense. It may or may not be true but it would make more sense. Igbo Nsibidi/Nsibiri is one of it's own and only for the Igbo language. |

Gajagojo: I only know one albino family and they're Yoruba. I don't care about whatever argument you're trying to make (there's nothing wrong with albino people and people like you with your prejudices make their lives 100 times harder) but the high number of fair skinned people in the Igbo ethnic group can only be attributed to genetic mutation. This was as a result of our environment and diet. Albinism is different to light skin. The albino Yoruba family I mentioned above had two dark skinned parents and two albino children. |

Gajagojo: Did you not see the evidence he posted? The Igbo sounds/letters and their relative symbols? Maybe you're not family with the Igbo and Efik languages but I can tell you right now that they're very different. 1 Like |

Christistruth00: That's nice. First, it's "Igbos are tribalists" then, when it doesn't suit your narrative, it's "Igbos hate themselves". It's getting boring now but what will never be boring is the fact that you (and those like you) depend on the Igbo for your very existence. I truly feel sorry for you. It must be such a conundrum to be so dependent on those you hate. Sorry 1 Like |

Gajagojo: He's shown you written symbols for specific Igbo sounds/letters. It could not possibly have been for any language other than Igbo. Why are you so hell-bent on not believing the Igbos had their own writing system? What lies were you told about Igbo people? |
Politics / Re: Reno Omokri Compares Southern Geopolitical Nigerian Women Dressings In The 1920s by Ngozi123(f): 12:04am On Dec 04, 2023 |
Gajagojo: Why are you so jealous of our fair skin? The reason why we have so many fair people is because of our environment and diet. Igbo land was heavily forested so a lot of our people were protected from the sun. Our diet is vegetable-based and doesn't contain too much oil. (Eating too much oil can darken your skin and green, leafy vegetables contain a lot of vitamins, including vitamin C, which can make your skin look bright and radiant.) 2 Likes |

Gajagojo: You're exposing yourself as a bigot here. Nsibidi/Nsibiri is a part of both cultures. Both cultures intermixed a lot and share traits with one another. Go and do some research on the Nri Kingdom and you'll see that it didn't just cover Igbo land. 2 Likes |

Christistruth00: So you're still here, carrying Igbo matter for head? You should be thanking God for every Igbo man, woman and child. If not for them, you would not be able to practice your religion in peace. If not for the Igbos, you wouldn't even be allowed to keep your moniker here on Nairaland. Thank God for them and stop complaining. |

Pristine664: I disagree. Many Yorubas here have insulted Igbos unprovoked – even before all of this "Lagos is no man's land" business. Too many of you are ignorant of Igbo culture and judge it by what you see in Nollywood films. I will give you one example of your people's tribalism from someone I know. He is an Igbo man and was sharing a room with a bunch of other Nigerians (mostly other Igbo men). Only one was Yoruba and he brought his relative to stay with them. His relative (another Yoruba man) foolishly believed that all Igbos were ritualists and would kill him in his sleep if they could. Did you know that when this guy had a seizure, it was those same Igbo guys who saved his life? If not for them, that Yoruba man would probably not be alive today. Many of your people have backwards conceptions of Igbo people before they even open their mouths so please don't blame Igbo people for your own ignorance and misconceptions. Thank you 1 Like |

Gajagojo: The truth of the matter is the British developed Lagos, not Igbo and not Yoruba. After the British left, Lagos was still the capital of Nigeria and it was then developed by all Nigerians. To say that Lagos was developed by the Yoruba is like saying Abuja was developed by the Gwari tribe. I have never seen anyone say the latter so why do you people keep insisting on the former? My Igbo brethren that insist on saying Igbos developed Lagos are wrong. No, we didn't develop Lagos but we helped to, just like all Nigerians did. Lagos is Yoruba land but considering its history, as long as it's in Nigeria, Yoruba people have to accept that it's for all Nigerians. You can't have your cake and eat it two. |

Omoawoke: Which humiliation? I've never seen the British compare their past to that of Nigeria. Why? Because they are currently far superior in every metric point. You only start to make such comparisons when you have nothing to show in the present. If, truly, your people have been civilised for the past 200+ years, why are you in the situation you're in now? How on earth did the Igbos (who were so uncivilised, according to you) manage to catch up to you so fast? This thread has been a low key insult to the Yoruba nation and they can't even see it. |

Catapault: Don't mind them. The biggest reason why many of them were clothed was because of Islam. If not for that, they would have dressed in a similar fashion to the Igbo women there. The same oyigbo people that they're trying to copy are the same ones promoting nudity in their own countries. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Christistruth03: Who is trying to drag minorities into their country? I've always pushed for an Igbo-only country in the event we secede from Nigeria. You must have me mistaken for someone else. Have either of the most recent two presidents (who you probably voted for) pushed for regionalism? The Igbos leaving gives less power to Christians and more to the Muslims (Northern Muslims, in particular). It will be a case of "anything they say, goes" (even more than it is now. |

Christistruth03: Why would I show you a Biafran map when I have no interest in Biafra? You and your ilk will become 2nd class citizens the second the Igbos secede. For argument's sake, let's say that the percentage of Christians in Nigeria is 50%. Let's also say that the percentage of Igbos in Nigeria is about 20%. This would mean that the Igbo account for 40% of the total Christian population in Nigeria. If you take this away, what are we left with? 37.5% Christians and 62.5% Muslims. Your people's rights are already being stamped on by religious bigots as things stands now. You will see what I'm talking about when the Igbos leave. |

Politics / Re: Why We Should Stop Shaming Yorubas For Outcome Of The 2023 General Election by Ngozi123(f): 12:42pm On Nov 17, 2023 |
realG101: People tend to generalise but how many people from the South-West (from the States that voted APC) actually came out to say that the results were rigged and that they did not vote for Tinubu? Look at what happened in Rivers State. There were many Rivers people who came out to say that they did not vote the Tinubu-led administration in. Have we seen this anywhere in the South-West (excluding Lagos and Osun states)? Tinubu is very purposefully making his administration to be 'Yoruba-heavy' so that his people can take the blame for his poor policies. More of them should be speaking against this. |

Christistruth03: Look at someone calling himself "Christistruth" coming out to speak against the Igbos. The same Igbos you repeatedly insult are the ones enabling you to practice your faith in peace. Go to any Muslim country and find out if you can even evangelise there in peace. |

Usmanovic95: Nope. They know full well that SS minorities exist. You will see them bring it up whenever there is mention of Biafra or Niger Delta oil. The truth is that they really see these people as Igbo but only postulate and label them them otherwise when it suits their agenda. The truth is that they don't really care about these minority tribes. They just a means to an end to put Igbo people down. |
