It was in fighting dirty, that all what not began to come out.

The thing no reach to begin translate to the whole tribe.

The initial post was him talking about his state.

Everybody would react if an Igbo governor was appointing more Yorubas into his cabinet

Or a Christian leader is picking Muslims into his team.

liveLongNprospa:

Since you know she's not igbo then bring someone else

Unlimited22:

Yes. Everybody would react, by calling out said leader or said person, not but burying the entire tribe or religion.


Deede, I know context is key, but I also know how Nigeria has worked since it's inception.

When all else fails, blame the Igbo.

izzou:


Well,

I can only advise that we in this generation rid ourselves of that mentality.

Tribal argument no easy. I dey tire fast fast

DissTroy:

Scammers are thieves, man. And the very worst kind of thieves. Not only to they steal money but they wreck lives forever while at it.

In Nigeria and on this thread, they are given euphemism names like "G Boys" and "Working Boys", their music is celebrated and their poster boy named unofficially on Nairaland as the " Ariste of the Year 2023", while some even bolder ones like Okafor join in to criticize politicians, shit on Nigeria, and justify fraud as the backbone of the informal economy in Nigeria.

We still celebrate thieves! We accept them so much so thieves who should be in hiding and in jail have the never to argue and troll to our faces.

We encourage fraudsters/thieves and cheer them on.

Errmm 8.5

It was a normal Tyler Perry movie; We know it won't have a regular ending, so we just wait for the twist.

You know, this same issue is common in Nigerian extended families

Brothers have been fighting for years, and they pass the battle of hatred to the children

In my extended family, we the children in my age range, had a closed meeting where we decided to drop all these unnecessary fights once these old men relocate to heaven.

Apart from political differences, nobody hates anybody here. So, why isn't it possible to just live like that?

izzou:


The truth is Disstroy was talking about his state. He didn't bring it here. He didn't come here to say don't marry Igbos (I mean, before the dragging started)

His context was in the political space of Akwa-Ibom, which he has his right and opinion on.

It is the same for Ondo, where Aketi made someone an LG whatever. The people revolted, but they haven't said Yorubas shouldn't marry Igbos.

The context should always matter

I once opposed when people were saying that White Igbo lady should be made a commisioner in Anambra.

The guy was speaking from a political point of view. Na Prosper turn am to another thing.

DissTroy:


Jail them, not kill them.

Too many fraudsters and apostles of fraud abound.

Maybe if the security agencies were effective, fraudsters like SeanOkafor with them full names public would be hiding in shame.

Truth be told, I've wondered the same thing far too often.

Maybe it's the political elite (including Igbo politicians) who want to keep it that way because the masses will be too busy sniping at one another to truly do something about the deplorable state of the country.

Why the hell will I harbor hate for anyone because of tribe? I have travelled to and stayed in all 6 Geopolitical zones, with a total of 27 states. I have interacted with people from different tribes in each place I've been and I've seen the good and the bad.

The first day I came to Lagos, I got to Peace Park Surulere by 11pm after I missed my stop at Jibowu because I didn't know where I was and it was dark and the driver ignored me. I found my way to a military checkpoint, and a Staff Sergeant Effiong took me on his bike at no cost to me from Surulere to Nigerian Army Reference Hospital, Yaba. By 11.30pm.


When I nearly got lost in Jos, it was a group of Muslims that harboured me and gave me food until the person I was waiting for arrived.

I have nothing against any tribe. I only call out individuals who have refused to understand that people can be individually wicked and not use those opportunities to cast aspersions on my tribe and religion.

When I see the trajectory Nigeria has taken since amalgamation and I still see those rhetorics repeated decades later, you don't expect me not to be wary.

so what tribe are Asaba people?

Is she igbo Bros?
You dey fear to answer yes or no

I don't need to worry about Nigeria. I worry about my circle

Leave Nigeria as it is. Nobody can change anything, except God intervenes.

What you should worry yourself about removing yourself from a tribalistic circle. There are threads on NL i would never open sef.

This na just shalaye Bros.
Someone is arguing and then ending arguments by throwing a whole tribe under the bus.

Political point of view wey dey define how people dey behave.
Nor be so Ronu sef use political point of view.
Call a spade a spade. Nor be this dribbling, you nor be hazard

The man's POV was right there.

I would not dismiss that, and just jump on one line or paragraph to argue.


Abeg i no get strength for this one

I dey go marriage and relationship seminar, maybe i can find a good Akwa-Ibom or Yoruba woman to marry.

Because of you, I no want Delta.

excuse you, I posted a link about her being ibo from Asaba, you replied she isn't Ibo, I asked if she isn't Ibo, what tribe is she then, you're here asking very stupid question.

I honestly didn't know you are this foolish.
