Use percentage and not number. Igbos have the poorest people by percentage, only behind NE.

How many are you people in total that 11 million persons are still irredeemably poor? grin

Your are referring to poor person per square meter.. Which normal because Igbos have smaller landsize..

See for yourself

Half of who you call Igbos are actually Ijaws.

Dumbest thing I have ever seen in this 21 century
People are competing in Educational sector, industries, tech, Agriculture and yet a human being is busy talking about tribe being largest.

Ok we accept, we are not even major tribes, infact we are the smallest tribe in Africa, hope u and ur followers are ok now

👉Hausa may not even be the largest
ethnic groups, because Half of what you call Hausas are actually non Hausa, northern minority tribes.

The biggest concentration of Hausas are
only in Kano, Jigawa, Katsina and Zamfara.

Hausas are not in majority in any
other state❗️❗️❗️

foolish boy how many Ijaws did you meet in your day to day activities, I have never meet an Ijaw man before, I have met countless Igbo s . How many Ijaw do we have here in Zamfara but we have thousands of Igbos here and the entire North.

No right thinking human will compare Igbo with Ijam

Too much noise because they believe they are better than every other ethnic group and they get bitter and cry victim when you put them in their place by showing them how ordinary and small they are.

The political leverage/domination they are still having in SS right now is because of their support for Jonathan.
This is exactly the noise op is talking about,this is what their forefathers have fed into their brain, an average Igbo believe they are more better, bigger, richer, educated and mightier than others. How they got the yardstick to measure that is still unknown to anyone.

This region will find favour in the face of God and other region the day they stop having that thought and have believe that they are not special than others.

Re: Igbos Are The 4th Largest Tribe In Nigeria. See Why. by ottersberger(m): 9:44am On Jun 25, 2023
I hate to say this, but it now has to be said.

It appears Ijaw has the need to re-profile themselves in the Nigeria narrative. While that is legitimate, why must Igbo be constantly dragged into this quest?. I have my doubts regarding the true origin of these Ijaw/Igbo threads though, but suffice it to state in no ambiguous terms that Ijaw are clearly not in the league Igbo play.

I hope no one is enumerating Kalabari & Co in the Ijaw census. How are you Ijaw when almost all your kings are descendants of the great Igbo people and are indeed Igbo?.

Igbo is numerically far superior. In fact, one-third of the people called Ijaw today are Igbo, ask the Igbo slave, Melford Goodhead alias Asari Dokubo.

The problem I see with the people who come here to disturb our peace with Ijaw this and that and play into the prepared narratives of some hardcore Yoruba tribalists is that you don't know your ancestral history. What does that make you?. Ask these Yorubas why Fulani now prevent them from performing their traditional Olokun Orisha & Egbe festival in Ilorin because the emirate did not allow it. In Yorubaland?.

The original posters may indeed be Yoruba. Anything to denigrate their perceived nemesis. But for those few Ijaw who is foolishly key towing to this Yoruba grand deception, you need to understand you are in the minority with your mindset amongst your kinsmen.

So, let's be clear on these 10 points:

1. There is no tandem basis to compare an Ijaw and an Igbo
2. Igbo is numerically far superior
3. Igbo is far wealthier
4. Igbo is more educated
5. 10 percent of the Igbo population have achieved way more in all walks of life than all Ijaw in Nigeria
6. Igbo play on the global stage. Who is Ijaw?
7. Should things degenerate to fisticuffs in the morning, Igbo will prevail against Ijaw before noon
8. Given a choice, all Ijaw neighbors will choose and side with Igbo. Nobody likes failures.
9. In comparison, Ijaw are underachievers in every department of life, the only exception being irresponsibility and drunkenness
10. Igbo babes fine and are good mannered pass una own by farrrrrrrr! (I been hear say una babes dey get wicked backside. I go soon check am out).

So our resident Yoruba tribalism warlords, I just gave you something to masturbate on. This is not about Igbo and Ijaw because Ijaw knows where we both stand on the metrics. This is about you, Yoruba tribalists who constantly stoke the embers of hate between Igbo and others in an attempt not only to vilify Igbo but also set them up against other ethnicities to suit the narratives you drive about them.

I will not respond to your expected asinine expletives. That means that I will not read your mentions. I hope that you cowards will finally brave yourselves and come with your true self. I'm all up for that Yoruba/Igbo conversation, and so do others here in Nairaland who are not even Igbo, but have had it up to here with your evil and arrogant mischievousness.

Now, therefore, take any of the 10 items listed, and the list is not exhaustive, and wan.k on it.

Ancestral losers!
