You don't understand
For SOME people, that's what they enjoy most - that back and forth tribal insults. Just as some men the joy of their lives is beatong their wives!

Good evening or is it night to everyone here. I have been reading and following Nairaland for over 15yrs. I have registered many times and sometimes bcus of lost of phone and sometimes forgetting my passwords I couldn't comment or post in here. But the truth is I have been following Nairaland for long and I love the piece of information I get here.
But there's one thing that is paining me seriously and sometimes I wish there's a way to fish out the people doing this and give them thorough smacking and admonishing. I am talking about the tribalist on here.
And it's mainly from the South East and South West guys. A Nigerian commits a crime abroad and what they first come to check is name so that they know the tribe to lamblast. Any political post or whatever they turn it to tribes thing and starts insulting one another.
For your information guys, I am an Igbo guy with both parents from the East, Abia state precisely. But I was born and brought up in Lagos and can speak both languages fluently. It wounds my heart seeing and reading guys insults themselves bcus of tribes. You as a South Westerner, after insulting and exchanging dirty words with the Easterner here, you'll still go back and do business with an Easterner. You have Good friends and neighbours who are Easterners. Same applies with the Easterners to the Westerners.
Or in your businesses, or market place do you ask your customers if he or she is a westerner or easterner before you sell or do business with them.
At your workplace do you say oh this person is from so so and so place and therefore I can't work with them.
Like I said earlier, I am an Igbo guy but almost 70% of my friends and people I deal with are not Igbos and over half of that percent are Yorubas.
So which mind will I have to insult yorubas here knowing fully well I will still go back and meet most of them in my daily hustle and my friends.
Honestly if only you guys knows and understand that it is politicians that are tearing us apart with tribes the better for all of us!
I want to rest my case here, but want to let those guys/people indulging in such act to know that it's childish of them and that they're not different from white discriminating blacks overseas. QED!

A scientific research needs to be done to really know what goes on in the mind of those who instigate hatred here in nairaland.
I feel most people are just wicked and shallow. Though, I believe some are being paid by unscrupulous politicians to keep the youths fighting while they focus on looting our national resources.

Front0lane:
Start with understansing not only Igbo does business, the say way Yoruba goes to igbo fpr business it is the same way igbos goes to Yoruba for business. Igbos do not own monopoly of any business in Nigeria as your thread mischieveously potrayed.

Business is not onky when you sell spare part, okrika n fan yogo. Those selling clothes, food stuff, cars, furniture, wood, roofing sheets and a lot more are into business as well.

QuinQ:
I'm a police officer

Kc3000:
As Abacha said; any insurgency that lasts over 24-hours, the government's hand is involved.

Tribalism drives traffic around here, management is involved.

QuinQ:
You can't. You ain't built that way

ElSudani:
Very well said but about 15 years late.

SmartPolician:
Just get used to it.

When you talk about those being paid are you talking about those that called all Nortjerners herdsmen n almajiri or the ones that call westernner backbiter because they refuse to vote a pandora criminal in Peter Obi or those that celebrate every attack on the middle belt by herdsmen ?! Pls clarify.

SeeWahala:
I'm an igbo man in my village with my people. I did not grow up in Lagos. I have friends from South East and South South. Yoruba here only hawk agbo and sew cloth. I traveled to before Lagos with nylon bag and slipass to do business but the smell pursue me back

Pls friend let's stop all these, no side is to be exonerated. As much as it pains me that my side truly called people those names you mentioned, can you deny your side doesn't call the other sides cone heads, developers, iyamiri, yeast, poto poto area and so on and so forth. Both sides are guilty of the name callings but at the end it doesn't makes sense cus we still interact physically with each other in our daily activities
