Look at this Alainironu ara Galatia, you can't deceive us. You're one of the useless tribalistics mods or connected to them either way. Why did you run to go and report ThEGodFaThEr103 when he countered you?
Wicked human being of an afonjaz.

Whatever paranoia and delusions make you sleep better at night, IPOB cretin.

Christistruth00:
Are you certain they are not related to the Fulani Bororo ?

Who knows? Perhaps their ancestors were used as sex slaves by the Fulanis

Newton85:
The vast majority of you are darkskinned, your codeine-influenced ramblings about "shades of dark skin" notwithstanding. Eboes are a predominantly dark skinned people like Achebe, Zik, Ojukwu, Ikpeazu, Mr. Ibu, Ekweremmadu, Ugwuanyi, Obi Cubana etc. Stop being ashamed of your people, IPOB cretin.

And yet, all the Igbos you mentioned are lighter than Tinubu, Fashola, Sanwolu and Ambode

Newton85:
Shut up! Everyone knows Fulanis are fairer than Igbos, even to the point of looking like North Africans. Zulus and Xhosas are also generally fairer than Igbos. But I'll overlook your braindead, chestbeating delusion that "Igbos are by far, academically more intelligent that (sic) Fulanis and Zulus" though. You Igbos are predominantly a darkskinned people, stop being ashamed of your people. Achebe, Zik, Ojukwu were all darkskinned, and they're the most popular Igbo figures ever.

Shagari, Monguno, Ahmadu Bello and the rest are also dark-skinned, yet they are Fulanis. So you conveniently forgot about them. I have seen a huge number of Fulani cattle herders and they are generally darker than Igbos. Their darkness even approaches the Yoruba shade.
In fact, I can't even remember seeing any Fulani cattle herder that is lighter than me, and I am not really fair. I have perhaps the same complexion as Peter Obi.

You guys never believed Precious Chikwendu was naturally fair-skinned until she started having fair-skinned boys for FFK.

There is a reason whites of 1600s and 1700s coined the term Red-Eboe, clearly to denote the fairer skinned Igbos, when compared to the generally very dark-skinned Yorubas and other sub-saharan Africans

greymiles:
Igbos are way far ahead of yorubas from time

Because of hairstyles? Mention an empire built by the yeebos. F**king Mayan Indians and those other Red Indian tribes had ancient hairstyles, while ancient Romans didn't. So, to your braindead, Igbo reasoning, Red Indians were far ahead of the Romans. I don't blame you though. The time you should have used to seek for knowledge was used to sell gala in traffic.

laiperi:
I have been hearing that for years, I did not believe it until I saw their sexy tribal marks from head to chin on both sides.

I finally realize how advanced they are with these gorgeous hairstyles.

Sexy tribal marks denied for years and gorgeous hairstyles now exposed make them the most advanced civilization anywhere.

Lol. You caught yeebos in their deluded confusion.

IhateYouMan:
Olodo, how can you tell their complexion from black and white photographs ??

My grandma took pics in those black and white days. And it was obvious she was fair in those pics. So, perish that excuse.

DoggoneDogg:
Is this why Fulani chased you out of Ilorin??

No. It's why Itsekiris and other Niger Delta tribes enslaved you before the white man came to rescue you.

Oga, no need for the long, boring epistle. There's no ethnic group in Southern Nigeria (at least) that doesn't have light skinned people. Some just have more light skinned people than the other. Many Fulanis are so lightskinned they could be mistaken for North Africans. Infact, their features and light skin has led many anthropologists to posit that Fulanis could be mixed descendants of Amazigh (Berber) people of Northern Africa and some negroes. That Fulanis have more light skinned people than Igbos isn't even debatable, same way Igbos having more light skinned people than pretty much every group in Southern Nigeria isn't debatable. But that still doesn't detract from the fact that Igbos are a predominantly dark skinned people. Show me any picture of a large concentration of Igbo people and let's see these "predominantly light skinned" Igbos. Lastly, I'm a very proud dark skinned African man, there's nothing to be ashamed of. It's you that should stop being ashamed of your dark skinned Igbo ancestors.

OfoIgbo:

Lol, imagine using "lighter" to qualify Obi Cubana, Ikpeazu, Mr. Ibu. You mean a jet black skinned dude like Obi Cubana is lighter than Fashola? Lmao. The delusions.

That's what you are

Newton85:
Oga, they're all darkskinned, lol. You can still tell a lightskinned person apart from a darkskinned person even in a black and white photograph. I've always noticed Igbos being ashamed of their darkskinned ancestors. Why is that? Even when you guys are predominantly darkskinned?

Igbos do not claim to be all light skinned, in fact the majority are dark skinned but there is a considerable population of light skinned Igbos.

Lol, first time I'm hearing that one can't tell a lightskinned person apart from a dark skinned person in a black and white photo. Look, I'm a member of Nigeria Nostalgic group on Facebook, and I can't count the number of times Igbo members of that group got so shocked that their ancestors could look so dark skinned anytime old pictures of Igbo people got posted in that group, lol.

IhateYouMan:

That's not the point of argument here bro. Everyone knows Igbos have plenty light skinned people among them.

And what is the point ?

The only indigenous slaves in Nigeria are Afonjas enslaved by a Fulani Emir in Ilorin and reporting to the Sultan of Sokoto.

If Aboki no give go ahead, dem no born any Afonja to do otherwise.

Na wa!!

IhateYouMan:

The point is that Igbos are predominantly a dark skinned people.

DabuIIIT:
The easterners are proud of their heritage. Only a bastard will deny his heritage/father's name/where he's from,thank you.

Easterners are not proud

Do you know that Obi Cubana is probably the darkest Igbo person that most Igbos will ever know, but I can marshal out a list of Yorubas that are as dark and even darker than him, from the public domain.

Check the pictures attached.

Take note of the last one that shows Obi Cubana with Igbos surrounding him, and see how his very dark complexion sticks out.
He will not stick out, if he took that picture in the midst of Yorubas.

Igbos are a predominantly dark skinned people, no need boring me with some edited pictures. Enough of your sickening insecurity in proving Igbos are a predominantly dark skinned people so bad.

Are Igbos generally fairer than Yorubas, or are Yorubas generally fairer than Igbos? Don't tell me they are generally the same complexion, because they are not.

This will help in establishing whether you are proud of your complexion or not.

Also Igbos were described as Red-Eboes, before bleaching cream came into use, in African communities. Go figure

Okay dude, there are no dark skinned Igbos. Infact, all Igbos are light skinned. I fully agree with you. If that makes you feel so special or makes you sleep better at night. Bye.

Thanks for agreeing with the people that described Igbos as Red-Eboes. You see, it doesn't hurt to admit the obvious.

Now the major point I wish to make is this. Both dark skin and light skin blacks are equal in the sight of God. No shade is superior or inferior to the other

Yorubas built a great empire. We had hausa, nupe and other slaves in our domain. Ilorin was lost due to a revolt by a Yoruba general. I know as a Igbo you don't know history since you don't have history. All these were happening while your flat headed ancestors were wearing palm fronds and dropping from palm trees (in between being raided for slaves by Niger Delta tribes). You suck on that you ignorant bum from a clan of no history.

The way the yeebos here post you'd think they are on some reality distorting substances or something.

They ain't proud but they want a nation of their own...what you gotta say about that?

Lol, that's because they suffer from mass psychosis. A people that are utterly detached from reality.
