I'm not an Igbo, which should be extremely obvious. Igbos and Yorubas have a similar bullshit low trust culture. The Igbos are more untrustworthy, but the Yoruba have no redeeming qualities. Your people are like Hausas -- designed to be slaves. At least the Igbos aren't cowards. They fought for their freedom, but their bad culture crippled them. Yorubas are content with slavery.

You can only fool yourself.

Where is the link to your nonsensical claim that can only be made by what you're now claiming not to be?

Aconomist:


In the U.K, the government keeps records of educational abilities by ethnic group. Igbo blow every other tribe in Africa out of the water while Hausa/Fulani are near the bottom. Over a large sample size, educational attainment can be used as a proxy for IQ.

Lol don't even bother.

Bro. The Fulani-run Sokoto Caliphate had almost as many slaves as the United States during the mid-19th century. The Hausa's were letteral slaves in their own land -- despite being the majority population. Sorry, but that's a monkey.

The Hausa is stupid and slave-minded

The Yoruba is smart and slave-minded

The Igbo is smart and free-thinking but extremely corrupt and untrustworthy.

The Fulani is stupid but trustworthy, cohesive, and unified.

Yet the assumed "stupid ones" have been outsmarting and ruling the "smart ones" while they can only open threads to wail online.

In fact the supleme leader of the acclaimed "smart and free-thinking" ones that led them to kill and behead themselves like mindless zombies - just got outsmarted out of his UK hideout, caged and now under the Koboko of the "stupid" ones cheesy

You should aspire to that level of "stupidity" yourself cool

I get the point you are trying to make, but Northern Nigeria is not a particularly intelligent place. You can even look at academic performance within the country. The Fulani advantage is cultural/ instinctual, not intellectual.

We are the best tribe that is we Fulanis the most hated in the world for our intelligence and beauty…

Even though I also have my reservations against Fulani people, I believe the Igbos carry that title in Africa. Most foreigners that claim to hate Nigerians indirectly refer to Igbos. In fact, a Thai police officer once even singlet Igbos out. Within Nigeria, it's a close contest between Igbos and Fulanis (thanks to the violent herdsmen who are mostly foreigners)

Even in my posts on Nairaland, I notice a much higher level of intelligence and reasoning among Igbos compared to other groups. On this tread most of the Igbos read quietly and left quietly. If I had made a similar thread about Yoruba you would be crying and wailing. Igbos can generally accept factual critiques of their culture, while Yoruba cannot.

Igbos are more educated but I highly doubt they are smarter, tribalism aside. There's no amount of hatred that can make Fulanis believe a whole president was cloned, or that a person like Namdi Kanu could hold meetings with Trump, sign deals with Mossad, and so on.

To me, I think they are among the least intelligent in the country

Last week the Tigrayans of Ethiopia (who are just 6% of the population) defeated the entire Ethiopian army and several divisions of its Eritrean allies. In 1994, the Tutsi minority of Rwanda (who are just 15% of the population) defeated the Hutu government who are 85% of the country. These examples show that a superior culture will always defeat an inferior culture, no matter its numerical disadvantage.

The defeat of Biafra during the Nigerian civil war demonstrates that despite their supposed intelligence and education, Igbos are NOT culturally superior to the Hausa/Fulani, who are the real brains behind Nigeria.

If Igbos were superior, they would have won the war.

Hausa/Fulani rule Nigeria because they are the superior culture. They have a level trust and coordination that an Igbo or Yoruba could only dream of. You can pay an Igbo man to betray his brother. If an Igbo living abroad sends money back to his family to build a house, that money will be stolen and no house will be built. How can a culture like that win a war? You were betraying each other from day one, and any veteran who fought for Biafra war will admit it.

All these kids writing bullcrap. The most idiotic tribe is the Fulanis. The war they know how to fight is to raid you in the cover of the night and run away before dawn.
Fulani never fought the Nigerian civil war. The South fought itself. Please no Fulani General crossed the river Niger. Muritala was unable to capture Onitsha before he almost got killed and ran away. Buhari didn't go beyond Delta State. Babangida was shot in the early stages of the war. He is still nursing the injury till today.
The tribe that won that war for Nigeria unfortunately was the Yorubas. The Yorubas led the Nigerian army also a Yoruba man led the Biafrain army.
Even the Head of State was a Christian from Jos. We that are clamouring for breakaway now fought ourselves. I don't know who spread the rumours that the Lazy, illiterate and uneducated Fulanis can lead an Army in the 60s.

I agree with you. Yoruba culture is more superior than igbo culture as well. Britain created fulani and kanuri political hegemonies because of their cultural advantage .

Don't let them deceive you.

Fulani are not "most hated in the world".

Are they the ones being targeted for xenophobia in South Africa or profiled and executed for drug crimes in Asian countries?

On the contrary actually. The Fulani are the only ethnic group with FIVE DEMOCRATICALLY ELECTED Presidents in Africa so it can even be argued that they're even the most loved. The herdsmen - farmers crisis can never define the Fulanis when the likes of Dangote, BUA etc are spending their billions for African economic and human development.


Fulani equates to incompetence and backwardness, unreliable, difficult to integrate with other ethnicities.

Yes they love power but don’t know what to do with it.
Look at the countries they have ruled and you’ll see lots of negative similarities between these countries.

Those opinions was propagated by Nnamdi Kanu and IPOB. These are just a tiny fraction of Igbos.

Igbos don’t believe that Buhari was cloned of replaced by some Jibril from Sudan.
Those who talk about it do so comically...probably to make a caricature of Buhari.
Real Igbos don’t believe that we came from Israel or have links to Jews.

Hard working Igbos don’t really care about the Trump presidency or believe that Kanu has links or is being supported by Israel.

Taking photos at Jerusalem with a skull cap means nothing to the average Igbo man who is Catholic, Anglican or Pentecostal.

People care more about their daily activities to bother. It’s sad the rumours are being spread by IPOB and I think to some extent some non Igbos who use these to mock us.

It was only a matter of time till you resorted to insults. Very predictable. You should have a better grip on your emotions.

The Yoruba Dangote is Adenuga. You can add Otedola to the mix for good measure and they're also creating thousands of jobs across the country including in Hausa Fulani land through their enterprises such as Globacom, Conoil etc.

Lagos State is engaged in a mutually beneficial, strategic alliance with Kebbi State in the "arid North" to fulfill her rice and other food needs while generating revenue and exploiting comparative advantages. That is strategy not slavery.

I cannot help if you're trapped in a slave mentality but I will surely point out obvious facts.

You make very sound arguments, even though you seem to portray an anti-Igbo rhetoric almost always. I really like how unbiased you have been so far, kudos.

The only flaw I see in the Igbo mindset is this seeming inability to remove morality from all political calculations.
Evil rules this world, but Igbo people are slaves to righteousness.
Only God can save them.
If they are politically righteous, how come their politicians are also corrupt like others? How come their politicians also move from one party to another? How come it is always PDP or APC that win since we agreed both are corrupt? How come people collect money to sell their conscience on election day? It is this nonsense mentality that you are righteous and that others are bad people that is your problem.
