You Yoruba women are the most hateful and tribalistic women in Nigeria everyone knows this.
Igbos hate you but theyre the ones who marry you the most amongs other tribes.
Igbos hate you but theyre the ones who have developed lagos to what it is undeniably by attracting business and IGR to the state.
Igbos hate you but they have always been your neighbors and never fought you people back despite your fathers show of wickedness and stealing of their properties littered all over lagos during biafra.
Igbos hate you but its same igbos and nigerdeltans that made your musicians great from fela(burnaboys father was his manager), wizkid(PAUL O and others promoting him), tiwa savage an Dbanj(don jazzy) etc promoting them to be stars theyre today.

Plenty Igbos insulted and helped remove Goodluck jonathan their son because he was incompetent and didnt say hes their son leave him.
They also asked buhari to leave for same reason but it reached Tinubus turn and your dirty self is here talking rubbish about igbos attacking tinubu because hes yoruba. You see that youre a very useless tribal bigot because you dont even know how to be tribalistic properly with sense.

You and your likes that are still foolishly tribalistic better shutup before you destroy your lives with hate and misery.
Your men normally dont have problem at all relating with other tribes. Very jolly jaiye-jaiye good fellows. An average yoruba man as a friend is someone you always enjoy his company.
That is why lagos government have been able to appoint other tribes into their cabinet. If it was remi tinubu or any yoruba woman that was governor of lagos state no other tribe will ever be allowed to enter especially igbos.
I dont know why you yoruba women are so tribalistic but will be sleeping with same igbo boys secretly behind.
Its always you their women who instigate your men to have tribal issues with other people. Very prone to jealousy and waywardness.

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 that is fine. The Igbos outright hate the Yoruba and it is time Yorubas become very conscious of this hatred.

Everyday they are castigating Tinubu, Fayemi and Osinbajo; and other potential Yoruba presidential candidates. The other day they were calling Yoruba women undesirable and dirty. All of them were hating on Peter Okoye for marrying a “dirty Yoruba woman” - a woman who is more educated and exposed than anyone in their generation. They insult the same Lagos where they live - why don't they just go back to Onitsha and Aba.

They insult anything Yoruba- from Anthony Joshua, Wizkid, Tiwa and everything Yoruba. These insults are not unnoticed. Yoruba will not forget and will surely retaliate!

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.

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.

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:



Until the advent of the Baboon in DSS cage called Cownu a lot of other tribes weren't as hateful of igbos as they are now

The Albinoic Cownu aka the Baboon can't be instigating hatred for other tribes and you expect love from them


The ape even called on igbos to stop attending Yoruba churches. I have listened to the slowpoke severally during the end sars protest calling on his brainless followers to destroy lagos, yet you expect love from other tribes after listening to those viral message


Biafra radio is an instrument for inciting genocide yet you expect acceptance.

Cownus damage to the perception of IPOB whose reasoning faculties has being outsourced to him will take decades to reversed.

Since your elders weren't proactive and courageous enough to repudiate his evil statements early enough,you guys will reap a bumper harvest of his plantings for a long time

Same way you are reaping the imbecilic decision of the drunkard Ironsi who cancelled a working Regional Govt system and introduced unitary system which created an overpowerful centre for his own selfishness but which the fulani are using today to dominate everyother tribe so will your descendants in 60 years time still be groaning under the senseless cownus stupidity

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.

I'm not ibo but Peter obi is this and that

They attack our women and call them all sort of names, I wonder a tribe of men that stomach nonsense against their women, that's Yoruba! Eeeeeeeckkkkkw

They attack our supper star, Antony Joshua was hated because he visited buhari and when he lost, they said unprintable names about him.

What amuse me is that, not only Ibos do this, some other minor tribes join Ibos, tribe that are shit compare to Yoruba, but what did Yoruba do in return laugh with stupid emoji. Theze small tribe no fit try the nonsense with ibo without getting smoked. But na Yoruba I blame

If they are not destroying Tinubu, they are clapping for those abusing our women, or singing praises of those disrespecting our food and culture.

There are other non Yorubas in Lagos that won elections and actually hold elective position.

Meanwhile we have two igbos and an Hausa man holding important positions in Oyo state too.

Meaning that if the Capital moves from Abuja to Kaura Namoda or anywhere, Gbayi people will rise to be claiming exclusive ownership of Abuja.

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.
