TooNoisy: I'm not a sports person to even have anything about AJ. But after Psquare, Wizkid and Tiwa Savage are among the top of my favorite pop artistes, so continue in your delusion. To start with, Yorubas are very accommodating, no argument about that. When I came to Ibadan upon my admission in UI, I came with zero knowledge about the character of a Yoruba man. But after awhile, things began to clear up on their own. First negative thing I noticed about Yoruba people apart from their dirty environment, littering even feaces everywhere is that they are not straightforward with people and issues. Sir, no one told me this, Oloun! I observed it first hand and till now, I still fight the spirit to make me have tribal sentiments when relating with my Yoruba friends, associates, classmates and co-workers. Igbos don't hate you but they don't trust you. The same suspicion the north holds against you is what Igbos are cautious of. You betray a lot and are never straight to calling evil by its name. Your life as Yoruba depicts a complete Nigerian politician's deceptive nature. Just like chameleon, Yorubas change colour according to the grass around them. I've worked and I still work with Yorubas, and I have observed so many things about their character, both good and bad but since this response to clear your misinformed impression about Igbos, I'll focus on the latter. A Yoruba man will prostrate with smile to greet someone but begins to say negative things about the person irrespective of whether an elder or a younger one including fellow Yoruba o. A Yoruba man will observe a bad behaviour in a 3rd party and report such to you, both of agree to talk to the person for correcting his bad behaviour, the Yoruba man will grow dumb or unable to face the person and say his errors instead he will allow you to be the only one talking and at the end, he'll go behind trying to make friends with the person and making stories that could depict him as no active actor in the whole thing. The rumour about Awolowo changing mind to join Biafrans to seccede from Nigeria has some elements of truth even if not entirely true because that's the typical character of a Yoruba man. Remember, Awolowo brought tribal politics in the Nigerian polity when Azikiwe defeated him in his region and instead of allowing Zik to collect his mandate, he went round the night, informing natives that an Igboman should not be given power to administer in Yoruba land and before morning, the people's decision was upturned. In our present 2023 predictions and aspirations. Everyone knows that Igbos are yet to produce president since Nigeria returned to democracy and we were all glad when some southern leaders moved the agreement that the South should be allowed by the north to produce president in 2023. No one suspected that right inside the same South, the Yorubas will still be salivating to contest against Igbos whose turn it rightly belongs by using all manner of lame excuses as that Igbos invested in PDP and should go there to contest while asiwaju invested in APC and should be allowed to contest in APC, look, that's not how democracy works brother. If we are going to preach democracy, then it should be thrown open to all Nigerians irrespective of tribe and creed. But since we know how figures are being manufactured up North, there becomes the unwritten gentleman agreement to rotate it among the geopolitical zones so as to carry everyone along. Now, Yorubas want the north to be fair to the entire South by allowing them to produce president in 2023 but they don't want to be fair to their southern brothers from the East to take what rightly belongs to them, so who's fooling who bruh? Now, the north has seen everything and wants to ride on that to also contest because Southerners are divided because of Yorubas inordinate ambition. In all, no one hates you but your unreliable, and deceptive nature makes other tribe to be wary of you and don't even think that the north is with you because it's a great mistake you would be making if you think in that direction. The only reason the north appears to be with you is on the pedestal that you will continue to support one Nigeria (unlike majority of Igbos who have seen the meaning of one Nigeria and are dissatisfied with the current structure and are creating awareness to end it) which will continue to favour them. The moment Igbos turn round to chant one Nigeria of the present structure, believe me, the north will approach them for junior partnership in Nigerian affair. It's simply divide and rule tactics and it's working for them, so don't get it into your head as if you are so special to them and therefore, they are your trusted ally. I think you should reexamine your position and understand why Igbos don't seem to be on the same page with you. 3 Likes |

This just brought back some stories I heard last year about what Igbos did when biafra surrendered. They said Igbos started pointing at Yoruba people's homes as theirs and so many Yoruba lost their homes especially those who didn't have documents on their homes lost them to Igbos then. The man telling this story said his father went through hell and almost lost his house. Stories like this and many other make Igbos the number one problem Yoruba have, none other is close not even Fulani. It's like when God created Yoruba the satan peeping through the window vowed he would also create his own and make them follow Yoruba. theTranslator: 1 Like |

The most clever and intelligent of the Ibos hardly mixed up with the lot of these urchins portraying Ibos in a bad light. Idiot like Nnamdi Kanu really did a terrible work on the mentality of these Ibo Youth. He messed up with their psychic and render them useless including some Ibo elders also. This is a lovely tribe, hardworking and never take No for an answer, the most enterprising tribe in Nigeria but so bad that most are so lousy and filled with venoms...I have always had sympathy for the Ibos disregarding that they started the killing before Biafra civil war started etc.....but with the manner these Ibo hooligans talk and abuse Yorubas and other tribes, it's so pathetic that a mare tenants in your own state will be so emboldened to the extent of wanting to take over your house and your property......by the way, what's the difference between Ibos and the fulanis ? They behave the same way....arrogant and nonchalant.... OmoEpe: 2 Likes 1 Share |

TooNoisy:See this impostor churning out gibberish. As a female, which I doubt,you should be compassionate in your comments and not hateful. The Igbo you are condemning are not so hateful of Yoruba as you want us to believe. Most of the writers use Igbo monikers and this draws the ire of Yoruba. This is the case of Fulani extraction who do not want Igbo-Yoruba relations or come together because their unity will spell doom for northern domination of our political space. But i can bet you're not a Yoruba but Fulani hired to cause Igbo-Yoruba fight. |

[quote author=TooNoisy post=106817275]One thing that is very clear is that the Yoruba are the most accommodating tribe in Nigeria; no one can deny that. However, what have we got in return - hate and envy especially from the Igbos. The Hausa/Fulani are suspicious of the Youruba but they do not hate the Yoruba. The are also accommodating to the Yorubas. The Edo/Isekiri/Urhoro are siblings to the Yorubas even though they have their own identity. The Efik/Ibibio are somewhat indifferent to the Yoruba but Stop generalizing! It's not all Igbos. The fact that Ipob lunatics transferred their hatred for Buhari to Yorubas simply because the Yorubas especially the muslims support Buhari does not mean that all the Igbos hate Yoruba. I'm an Igbo and this is authoritative!!! 1 Like |

Thought it would have read 3 Nigerians who are not Lagos indigenes..... Why broaden it to Yorubas?? It always amuses me how a whole FEDERAL CAPITAL TERRITORY for 75 years, with Billions of dollars of FGN investment is now seen as a patrimony of an ethnic group. Meaning that if the Capital moves from Abuja to Kaura Namoda or anywhere, Gbayi people will rise to be claiming exclusive ownership of Abuja. 1 Like |

BUT I'VE discovered that people who are christians and well grounded in the word of faith barely showcase tribalism I'm not an advocate of tribalism because it's a demonic tool sponsored from hell, passed around by witchcraft agents And some so called children of God are buying the idea, how pathetic. Note well Corrupt politicians all over Nigeria rarely throw tribal stuffs at each other and they are committed to there corruption while some so called Nigerians who want better are only concerned with tribalism Pathetic I just pray that Nigerian youths and Nigerians as a whole won't major on the minors while the major issues such as growth and development are left unattended to While the political thieves takes advantage of their divisiveness 1 Like |

Edo itself is a Yoruba word. Itedo = founding Tedo = founded Edo = settlement. The whole Edo to part of delta were part of Yorubaland, the English seized the land and settled all the black servants they collected all over Africa and brought with them there. English tried to make a history for them but it didn't stick. That is it! Any history that doesn't add up still will never add up. HornyTave: |
