You guys from the South West are the least travelled within the country amongst the three major ethnic groups.. The consequences of this is very obvious..
This is why you guys define anything from Ore as igbos.., including Benins, urhobos, itshekiris, Efiks etc... Travel bros..

That one fetish family did some obscene things because of some traditional squabbles there does not mean that whatever they did is a common cultural practice across board! I have never witnessed this in my whole life but you yorubas teach your young that this is a perennial Igbo practice. The same way you teach your people that igbos are ritualists, meanwhile Ogun State, the heart of ritual killings in Nigeria is in Yoruba land!
Travel!

First of all, I am not Yoruba.

2ndly, we're in the Internet age where you don't need to travel to know and even see what is happening even in far away Russia.

3rdly, it is a known fact that this act of forcing widows to drink water used to bath their late husband is rampant in Igbo land.

4th, as rampant as armed robbery, kidnapping, Boko Haram etc in Nigeria, I have never witnessed any of these things in my entire life. Does that mean they don't exist here? No!

Rugaria:
I don't think I have the time to entertain your tribal idiocy here. The heading of thread obviously laid down the foundation for the tempo of discuss and your type have been dishing out as much as you can not take here... You guys get overly agitated when the primitivity of whatever you call your cultural practices are explained to you but sorry, as long as we are all part of the same country, we will always make our minds clear. It's left for you to find Amway to deal with it because I don't give a flying fukc...

Let me repeat this; if my son rolls on the floor to greet me, I will kick his skull off his body! That's a fact! Rolling on the ground to greet anybody is achaic and primitive and the so called educated ones amongst you, should start a process of cultural reengineering to stop some of this outlandishly embarrassing behaviors. It's wrong and amounts to some kind of worshipping and edification of a normal human.

You are not the only ones that had such practices in the past. Others have somewhat moved on but you are stuck in your medieval displays. That's part of the reason why your cities look like some bombed out Fallujah and Sert. It's same reason why ritual killings is a huge problem in places like Ogun.. Squalid, stagnant primitive culture!!

This is the same reason why we were talking about abobakus the other day after the alafin died. You will defend that too as your culture and when I say it's wrong, you will call it a put down. You forget that twins were once killed at birth in the East and someone stood up to stop it! You don't want to change and you don't want anybody to criticize you! We must take you as you are including when you want to bury your Obas with human heads!

Bros, comot from my front ahbegii..

Can you swear that till date the Igbos don't force their widows to drink their dead husband corpses water?

If this isn't witchcraft then witchcraft doesn't exist..

Shey everyone is seeing how low the average Igbos thinks??

Like if someone else doesn't validate the success of the Igbos they'll die.. And to think some Igbos here doesn't see anything wrong with this shows that's how 90% of them are..
Twitter, Facebook, Nairaland they're all the same..

"... always about the Yorubas.." Can you imagine..?

ValCon888:
Most likely carbon monoxide poisoning.
They couldn't fûck with the windows open.
So the man shut all the windows and switched on the AC.

And that was the beginning of the end.

Edit: Let me break it down for those who don't understand.

The SUV's engine produces a lot of toxic gases which flows through the vehicle's exhaust system.

The most common way of carbon monoxide poisoning is when the car’s AC is on and it is parked in a garage or a space with limited airflow.

The SUV’s AC intake pulls in the air which now mixes with the exhaust gases.

The carbon monoxide is odourless, so it goes undetected and slowly kills the occupants of the car.

The car was parked in the open and not a closed up garage

Na Banty go win

Malory:
They don remove this one name from Atiku's payroll reason why he is ranting

They'll soon remove Reno O mockery's name from the payroll too

Can you see how the Yorubas love the Igbos? Atiku is Peter Obi's only threat in clinching the PDP ticket and this Yoruba man wants Atiku out of the way. If this isn't love then nothing else can be love.

SWATMan:
You are the one that need his head checked here. How can you make a foolish comment about a tribe because of the comment of an individual? He is entitled to his own opinion and he owes you no apology about that!

Is this the first time they're doing this?

Michael004:
So if he post it on twitter, what will happen?

If Facebook not a forum again?

Reno made the same post on twitter too. And so well, our Eastern brothers are barking there too

Rugaria:
The yorubas project their utter inferiority complex before the igbos by accusing the same igbos of feeling inferior! It crazy! Igbo man feel inferior to a fellow Nigerian?? On what grounds? Cock and bull stories.. You dont need to ask the igbos who feel inferior to whom. You just need to look at who's always restless at the success of the other. Use the forthcoming elections as an example. The yorubas willingly gave their political positions to the north during the Jonathan regime but just now the igbos are speaking up seriously about the presidency, the whole Yoruba remembers the need to produce a President. These guys sacrificed the position of of speaker of the house of representatives to tambuwal for free. They never contested against Buhari. But once they hear Peter Obi and co, they are on overdrive.... Facts don't lie..

Every Tom, Dick and Harry knew that Tinubu supported Buhari in 2015 so he would in turn be supported in 2023. So what you're saying is trash

At least she didn't sue her parents or the doctor later for letting her go ahead with what she wanted

Another Igbo again..

And you say I shouldn't generalise?

Just this reason there is enough to make people not to vote Igbo for presidency. You guys should try to be calming down biko.

immortalcrown:
You will always deny the truth even when it is in your face. Was he interviewed about the North or about Nigeria? Did Zik make such a statement against another tribe? Will a man that seeks equality make that statement?

What are you saying? Wasn't the interview because of his North first policy in the Northern region or you didn't even watch the video..

How would you have taken it if Ahmadu Bello said "Fulani domination of Nigeria is only a matter of time"

Or Tafewa Balewa saying, "It would appear that the God of Africa has created the Fulani to lead the children of Africa from the bondage of ages.

Trimjos:
So from your analogy, can we say that all Yorubas are ritualists??

DontBullshitMe:
Reno Omokri's post is divisive.

What's wrong with : "Yoruba is one of the most successful ethnic group in Africa" or "Yoruba is a successful ethnic group in Africa"?

That he declared Yoruba as the MOST successful ethnic group in Africa translates to him belittling other ethnic groups of Africa.

Why didn't he post it on Twitter? Why Facebook?

And why is it only a certain people that are against it? Out of the over 250 tribes in Nigeria, why is only a particularly tribe that is taking it to heart?

Why didn't they take it to heart when he said, "The Igbo as a Blessing to Nigeria” or when he wrote, "The Igbo Are The Engine Of The Vehicle Called Nigeria” or when he praised the Igbo as the "real richest people in Nigeria"

The same thing happened when he praised the Yoruba, that they dominate Nigerian music and the Igbos against attacked him.. That's just the way the Igbos are.

izac82:
Using that method on humans cannot never be accurate, since humans have different views, perspectives and emotional levels. Soil is consistent, while humans are dynamic. One way you can gouge this is ether through a poll or accurate statistic. Your postulation is wrong bro.

Isn't Reno's post a form of a poll to show how the Igbos think? Reno's page have random people from random Nigerian tribes who comments daily on whatever he posts.

In this very post, more than 80% of the Igbos are saying the same thing.. Isn't that enough to draw conclusion that that's how they think?? Even here in Nairaland, they still do the same thing. So it's safe to generalise their habit.

This isn't the first time Reno have praise the Yorubas. He praises the Igbos too.. In fact, most times it's the Igbos he praises more that's why if you read one of the comentnt up you'll see someone saying Reno always pressure their button. But every time he praises any other tribes that's not Igbo, you'll see them wailing and gnashing their teeth..

izac82:
some random comments and posts by individuals cannot represent the entire views of Igbos. This is what we call absolute generalization.

When a soil scientists wants to draw conclusion on the pH level of a soil in a farmland, he doesn't need to test the soil in every area of the farm land. All he need to do is take soil samples from random places in the farm and test them. From the tests result, he can generalize if the soil in the farmland is acidic or basic.

America did not treat those people the way Northern and Yoruba elders have been treating Igbo people. Have you not watched that Ahmadu B video against Igbo? Did any part of America make such statement against another part of America? See the link here.

So, you are not as wise as you claim.

Ahmadu Bello was putting his people first. And what he said didn't affect the whole of Nigeria only the Northern region. He said if there's a big Northern post in the North, he'll pick a Northerner first for that post. And if there's no Northerner qualified for that post then he'll pick an expatriate or another Nigerian on contract. I see no wrong in what he said, except when he said he'll pick an expatriate before a fellow Nigerian. But him picking his fellow Northerner first for a post in the Northern Region is not wrong.

He then even asked, how many Northerners are employed in the East or west and he gave the answer as none.. He was the leader of the North and he's not wrong for wanting his people to be in the top position in his region.

He was even a visionary leader. He forsaw how other regions dominating his region can bring bloodshed..

This was the same mistake that Nnamdi Azikiwe made by trying to be the Premier of the Western region..

Arrant nonsense from a nonentity!

That is why I said Nigeria is a cut-and-join country. The same way Fulanis have been added as Nigerians is the same way Igbo was falsely and forcefully added to Nigeria.

It's the same way in many countries.. The Caucasians aren't natives of America. But they didn't use it as an excuse to be foolish. Look where America is today

Like what exactly is wrong with them? Their inferiority complex is getting out of hands..

Imagine that Amaechi Arinze guy saying Reno gave what's meant for the Igbos to the Yorubas. Is that not witchcraft..?? Wasn't that the exact reason Cain killed his brother in the Bible?

There are over 200 tribes in Nigeria but it's only the Igbos that Reno Mockery's post pained

immortalcrown:
So Fulani is a tribe in Nigeria? Fulani that is not native to Nigeria. I am not surprised. Nigeria itself is a cut-and-join country. Nothing can stop Biafra.

Are Igbos Natives of Nigeria. Didn't you guys said you originated from Israel?

TheBaseet:
And to think a lot of persons sees these old politicians as the ones to fix this country baffles me a lot

All these your old politician cries are becoming stale.. Tell me any young politician that have the capacity and sagacity to rule a country as complex as Nigeria with over 200 ethnic groups.. I know they are many so name just one and bring out his CV/resume on what and what he has done.

Wizkid and Davido are youths. They are the 2 most successful musician we have in Nigeria and they are very rich and can afford even a 200 million naira nomination form.. They have no corruption case on them. But between them and Atiku or Tinubu or even Buhari which one will you choose as your president..

You guys will just be saying we need a young guy, we need a young guy, but you can't name just one..

Peter Obi must contest!!
Must!!
No room for excuse. He must contest!!

Where are the grace crew?

Watch how effective the Nigerian Army will be cos they won't have an insider to sabotage their effort like they do in the Boko Haram war.
