Why Do Igbos And Yorubas Hate Each Other So Much? by Dpatriotng: 10:04am On Oct 23, 2023
It seems the real enemies of Igbos are Hausas/Fulanis... But the hate and destructive competition we often witness on social media is between Igbos and Yorubas.

Is it true that Hausas/Fulanis have been able to infiltrate and influence yoruba culture through inter-marriage and religion but haven't been so successful when it comes to Igbo culture?

im a yoruba man and we dont hate igbos neither does igbo hate yoruba..only tinubu minions hate igbo and its all for political gains to deflect the real issues they are guilty of...if tinubu fall down and die today, yoruba race will have peace and the fight will be shifted within them tinubu boys and nigerians shall finally be free..what we had before was healthy rivalry which is fun and progressive until tinubu enter national politics with Buhari and tsunami was let loose..the greatest undoing for nigerians in tinibu moving from regional power broker to national..it destroyed every fabrics of the nation and we are even yet to feel the full weight of it...

Igbos and Yorubas do not hate each other.

Online, you see APC urchins doing their best to introduce strife and create enmity between tribes so they can divide-and-rule.

However offline, the number of marriages going on between both tribes are legion. Not to talk of their boys and girls who can't get their hands off each other.

No, Igbos and Yorubas do not hate each other.

Going by the votes scored by Tinubu in the election in south west states we can say that the so-called "Tinubu minions" are very very plenty.

We can also infer that "Tinubu minions" form majority of the yoruba population.

With that said we can infer that majority of yoruba population do not or cannot relate openly with Igbos the way they fraternize with Hausas/Fulanis.

Why or what is the cause of this phenomenon?

there is nothing bad in people voting for their tribe people..what we are talking about is the hatred, the perceieved hatred between us amplified by tinubu minions.. my parents voted for tinubu and they dont hate igbos, infact we have them as tenants and are very active member of the community. they did it for tribal reasons which was myopic, same with several other people i know...

I won’t say Yorubas don’t have their flaws but Igbos are very tribalistic and they always act like victims when it backfires

From the civil war to the last elections.

You vote your man but I decide to vote my own man, I’m tribalistic

It’s on record that after the war, only Yorubas asked them to return and even gave them their properties back in the SW. No other region did

Till date, Obi’s most vocal followers are Yorubas but the politically naive Igbos keep casting aspersions on the Yoruba as a race. More Yorubas voted for Obi that Hausa/Fulani but Yorubas as a race are the tribalistic ones

Don’t worry, we are watching

You spoke as if Nigeria jumped from 1960_2023. Either you are too tribalistic or you just want to decieve your type. The civil coup was formed with Yoroubas and the war was orchestrated by people like Awolowo . Peter appeared on the ballot box after 60yrs and all of a sudden, ndi igbo are now tribalistic.
You cant take half of the shitt igbos have taken in Nigeria, yet they are not scarred to run away. Only cowards who says they are not tribalistic goes online to shout Yoruba ronu while denigrating their own tribesmen because they looks like igbos.

Atleast i understand the argument that the tribalism ooozing from yoroubas this days are from Tinubu men but calling igbo tribalistic after leaving Ojukwu to vote Obasanjo, accepting Nigeria even without none of their leaders at them hem of affairs for 60yrs.

The enemies of Ndiigbo are Yoruba tribe ... no need for sweet talk
The Yoruba tribe sees igbos as competitors.. this igbos caresless..
you build a house a Yoruba man puts eyes for you omo Igbo

No other tribe in Nigeria cares less about the success of an Igbo man in his environment except Yoruba

... the enemies of the North are igbos.. the hate Muslim and anything Islamic .. even when the north has accepted them on business bases

75% of igbos outside east live in the North. 15, in Lagos.south south and middle belt shares the rest.

.. the north hate no one .. but religiously different with all Christians .. weda na north south west east.. it matters less to a northern Muslim

For Yoruba to survive .. the embrace both religion

No tribe really sen Yoruba people.. because of their names tribal nature..and the travel less within Nigeria ..
The few that travels always live in cluster among themselves and hardly mix with other tribe unlike the other tribes in Nigeria that careless or less conscious about others

This is the Nigeria reality.

Any human not saying this truth or trying to paint it is a troll.

Awolowo and Zik...
Awo never liked Zik.. and throughout saw ZIk as a competitor and never as a southern ally..
Zik was an pan africanist ..inherited Macaulay.
Awo was a Yoruba man..

Hatred peak .. and transferred when Zik was made a President .. and Balewa his prime minister by the politics of saduanna.

Oga it has always been a Yoruba thing..

All this tribal hate among them .. cumulated to Awolowa shouting Ronu to western politicians on the eve of the elections .. that made Zik lost west and gain eastern..

If you don’t know your history .. many Nigerians knows that..

Do you know the year awo formed his egbe omo oduduwa that transformed to action group party?

Why couldn’t he form a national party .. but a regional one

What was Zik party
NCNC..
is has southern Cameroon as part of the party and Nigerians.. negotiating with saduanna NPU the won..

Who encourage the division of Nigeria Cameroon and have ambazonians fighting for republic today to leave at first.. to avoid a large Igbo dominated area ?
Awolowo..

Who paid him back..

Micheal opara if eastern region

He made sure the mid west was cut of from west..


Go and learn your history and see .. tribalism didn’t start today.. nairaland is a Yoruba site and sure do promote it

Permit me to educate you

Azikwe Born in Niger State, From Anambra who settled in Lagos State

Is not a Nationalist but an ethnic bigot and a typical hypocritical thief... Common thief

Herbert Marculay a Yoruba man from Orita Aperin Ibadan, but a returnee from Slave trade, tutored Azikwe on Politics and made him who he is

When Azikwe got power his major obsession was fixing Ibo people at all strategic position in Yoruba land

Yoruba went to farm to labour hard and built University of Ibadan

Azikwe from Anambra made The VC Ibo and admitted more Ibos prompting Awon to ask if he would allow such in his region

first two modern leaders of Yoruba and Igbo people was Awolowo and Azikiwe. There is only one legacy of Zik remaining today….. that is UNN Nsukka. Zik group of companies is not in existence anymore. West African Pilot, one of the biggest media giants of the 40’s has gone extinct.

The legacies of Awolowo remain in our modern times….Tribune, the newspaper of Awolowo is still in circulation today. ODUA group of companies still thrive in our time. Cocoa house still rises tall in Ibadan…. OAU remains a giant among tertiary institutions. The blue chip companies Awolowo brought to Ikeja are the biggest companies in the country today…. The legendary city of Ibadan today remains an Agricultural hub because of Awolowo’s projects that attracted IITA AND NIHORT.

To understand who has a greater DNA of leadership, you need to learn how to separate propaganda from facts.

The new propaganda is that Yoruba people are servitudes to Fulani. The real truth is that the eternal servitudes of the North are from the East. There is no great leader from the region that did not serve the North. Zik, Okpara, Ekweme, Okadigbo…. That were all Northern slaves. Used and dumped by them. Even their greatest warlord of all times came back from exile to serve them.

The most powerful man in Yorubaland today in politics is a Yorubaman. The most powerful man in the military and finance is a Yorubaman…. That is far removed from the concept of servitude.

I implore every Yorubaman and woman to seek homegrown solution to Yoruba issues. We are capable of finding a sage of our time like our fathers did when they championed Awolowo.

Say no to sons of Zik…. Friendship with them is dangerous to the desire for a golden age for Yoruba people. Say no to Obidient movement. No son of Zik should ever evolve into a national hero. They have crossed a lot of line with Yoruba people and for this, they must pay the ultimate price in our time like they did in the times of our fathers.

Yarubas have been brainwashed and enslaved by the ruling tribal and political class to hate igbo people. Tinubu peddled and sold the igbo hate to keep lagos to himself. Igbos pay taxes regularly and have live peacefully with the yorubas in lagos since the 1920's. But somehow, the ruling class manipulate the yorubas into believing igbos have plans to take over Lagos, and the yorubas foolishly believe and vote according to the interest of the criminal ruling class.
