The so called crime: Resisting British rules in Igboland.

excanny:
But the SW has the most congested prisons in the country and SW has 90% yoruba majority.

Do the math.

OmoFiditi:
The Igbos were republican and stubborn against colonialists, they were known to rebel against any man who tries to lord over them, unlike we feudal and monarchical yorubas who invited colonialists to invade our land.

Read the Aba women riot, read about the Ekumeku war (the longest war between the British and any African tribe), read about Igbo landing and read Achebe's Things fall apart.

Rebels are not usually liked by the white colonialists, so it is not unusual that they will make up the most of their prisoners.

Sorry to burst your bubble, my dear yoruba brother. Truth is bitter, but must be swallowed..

That republican and stubborn nature is why the population of ibos in foreign prisons is higher than the population of China, I presume?

You say they commit all manner of crimes. But they want to leave Nigeria and have a place of their own to finish themselves with crimes.

Yet you say NO, they won't leave.

This data boiz from SW are lo...
They don't know the nature of the crime during the colonial era. What crime can they think in the late 50's under colonial rule

This proves that our neigbours from the East proved very stubborn against colonial rule.
