Why Do The Remaining Igbo State Hate People From Ebonyi State? by sorosoke101: 7:43pm On Apr 12, 2022
Its been so obvious, the hatred the remaining Igbo states have for the Ebonyi people. Even here in Lagos the other Igbo tribes do call them "OSU" I really don't know what it means until someone told me it means " an outcast". Is there a history to these hatred? I tried asking some of my Igbo friends but most of them can't really fathom the cause but they openly admitted the hatred is much in the east compare to here in Lagos. According to my research on this issue, the hatred is much between the Anambra people and the Ebonyi people. Please I need more answers on these.

Shut you up; there is nothing like other Igbo hating on Ebonyi people. It's all in your head.

Looool. May the lies you people tell in your efforts to throw discord among the Igbo give all of you onu ikputu.

Nobody calls Ebonyi people 'osu'. That was the first sign that you are a harbinger of mischief and discord.

Because of the development gap between Ebonyi and the other SE states, there was some tendency for Ebonyi people to be looked down on, but that is fast disappearing as Ebonyi State is rapidly developing, especially in the area ot infrastructure.

But they were never called OSU at any point. That is a lie some of you in the SW came up with to foment trouble between brothers.

When I was in Enugu , the Akakaliki was part of Enugu. I noticed how they looked down on those from that side. I dont think it is hatred just a normal thing of one feeling better than the others or looking down on the other. I didnt ask oo as you know it was obvious Im not from that area and I dont want to put mouth where I go blame myself later.

Stereotyping and looking down on some subgroups is an unfortunate but rather commonplace thing in large ethnic groups, where perfect homogeneity of culture and uniform development is absent. Sub-groups that have been more favored by Westernization and Urbanization will tend to look at less fortunate subgroups as 'bush people'. There's nothing particularly Igbo about it. I've lived in the SW, and I know and have heard the things certain subgroups say about other subgroups.
