Uniben4sure:
Sometimes when I am tempted to engage my Yoruba brethren in tribal e-war, I pause to think about the quality Yoruba men and women who have impacted my life positively. I can count at least five yorubas who have made more impacts in my life than even my own tribesmen.

I am equally sure that many of my Yoruba brethren who are honest enough can attest to the fact that they have been positively impacted in one way or the other by Igbo's .

If the foregoing statements are factual, and if the majority of the two tribes adhere to the Christian faith, why then do we find it difficult to forgive each other's shortcomings? Why have the Igbo's refused to forgive the Yoruba's for the roles SOME of them played in the civil war, and why would the Yoruba's chose to attack Igbo's living in their lands because of the political choices made by SOME Igbo's or because of the comments of a microscopic few Igbo's on social media?

It is unfortunate that most of these tribal attacks have been aided and abetted by our elders and even traditional rulers who ordinarily should be in the forefront of redirecting the young ones towards the path of peaceful coexistence.

For those those of you who like to beat the drums of war, let me inform you that wars are no friends to any side as both sides are left to count losses at the end. Besides, let's not forget that we already have our lovely daughters and sisters who are married to both sides. Think about what will become of them in the event of tribal war.

I am writing this piece to make a passionate appeal to both sides to call themselves to order. All these tribal scuffles should stop. Let us apply common sense and let peace reign between the two tribes. Some people up north are taking advantage of our inability to unite to perpetuate themselves in power, yet we have refused to put aside our differences and work together.

Please, this thread is not for another tribal e-war, but for us to have a sober reflection and make amends in the way we relate with each other.

Let him who has ears hear.

Thank you for reading.

this tour post really anoyed me.
you are making it look as if Ndi igbo are begging this useless yorubas

Simple rules, when in Rome behave like a Roman. And do to others what you want them to do to you.

laudate:
Guy, go to the search field on Nairaland and just enter 'Igbo and Yoruba'. What you see will amaze you!

So you ar talking of the e-war here on nairaland, you ar such a joke. My bro igbos hv no problem with yerubas nd it's not on record that igbos hv clashed with yerubas in the past. So let us live in peace nd harmony

These yoruba ppl sef. is this toutish behaviour all u can do? wake up, we dont have time for ur mumu area boy attitued, we will be woried wen u invent an economic expansionist model dat can compete with ours. for now keep wasting ur time and dying in envy. Even the religiously tensed North doesnt deter us let alone one dirty useless oba and his touts

wytecat:
Why is it that your selective amnesia relapses only when Yoruba respond to Ibo's shenanigans?

Ibos have been going crazy and you didn't call them to order but as soon as we look in their direction, you remember how to be good neighbors.

Enough of these threads! If you really hope to achieve something worthwhile, why don't you call for a truce so as to know where to put blame next time. Yoruba are just now responding to Ibos after years of abuses.

u obviously lack comprehension skills dude or perhaps u didt read d op at all. No sensible observer will fault dose truce lines,not if uur not a natural noise maker. Yorubas hav always been d aggressors on dis forum. Igbos only beat dem bak wen it seems dia madness is gettin out of hand.do u knw dat a certain dayokanu was d father of tribalism on ds forum.describin a whole ethnic group dat almost doubles his in population as flattheads? Do u know dat dis same ape wit his pack of neanthertals wud at d slighest arguments,start postin pictures of dead n dyin biafran babies n boast of dia awolowo who masterminded d starvation of dese kids?now igbos r suposed 2 sit bak n play dumb on d face of such provocations abi? Wot hav u 2 say abt ur oba who openly threathened a peaceful group wit death if dey ventured 2 vote a candidate of dia choice? Igbos shd jst laff it off as one of dose tin abi? U bunch r d aggressors my dear. Igbos will not sit bak n watch u poke dirty little fingers in dia face. U shd naturally expect occcasional smackdowns ok.now go and proclaim dese facts u jst stumbled upon on nairaland ds evnin.

PedroJP:
Uniben4sure, these pple are dangerous and untrust worthy for u to think u can settle with them. Pls learn from the past and stop ur holy holy attitude. Na u holy pass ? Dis is about national/tribal interest not personal. Igbo is a nation her interest should come b4 anyother.


Experience is the best teacher they say, simply shows that, u can't leave d past behind. Yorubas are chronic enemies of Igbo nation that nothing will appease them other than them seeing Igbo below them. Wake up.


Hausas/fulani can be trusted on this path u are following as they are always sincere when they tell u they are sincere, not yorubas.


Yorubas will accept ur olive branch to plan ur downfall and then mocku so much that u'll feel u'll be better dead than staying alive.

Not all Yoruba's are dangerous and untrustworthy. I am talking from experience.

no dear not like dat. I undstand wher d op is comin 4m. More ova dats wot igbos do. Igbos r d most peaceful among d 'big 3'. Pasnally I feel abit diminished weneva I hav 2 dish it 2 one or two yoruba peeps here.but d truth is dat somtimes u hav 2 stoop 2 d height of a dwarf 2 reciprocate his earlier blows so dat he doesn't start describin u as incapable. Dats d sad situatn we find ourselves here. Imagine fightin dirty wit a man dat loves dirt so much,against ur principles n morals.

You should be more concerned of how both parties can find a way to be in their own seperate space
Their own seperate nation
It is foolish to continue living within the same space with someone you are not related to who you are constantly at loggerheads with

Warlord3000:
It baffles me too ooo...

Especially some taking 1967 civil wars for head as if they were alive and fought it then sef..


Let it go..............

Do you honestly expect people to forget evil commited against them in the past when such evil and situations surrounding such evil is still being repeated as well as the perpetrators not being remorseful
This is not a rational way of thinking

Nne, you got my post wrong. I know that the great Igbo nation are no less than any tribe in Nigeria. I also know that the Yoruba nation equally are a force to reckon with.

My dear, so long as we are still in Nigeria we need each other. Until we resolve to go our separate ways, we can't deny the fact that we need each other. And since majority of Igbo elites seem not interested in working towards separation but would rather join forces with Nigerian government to frustrate the efforts of those working towards it, is it not better we sue for peace? I think it is.

Your problem is that you are still looking at things through the eyes of the demonic British created fraud called Nigeria
When you get to understand that the Fraudulent creation called Nigeria should be destroyed and victims of this fraud be set free only then will you see that the points in your writeup are really not the issue

You are the hamster on treadmill here! You are a liar just like the rest of your tribe. I've been right here since the days of dayokanu and he was only responding to Ibos, he didn't start it, and I felt he was too soft on you goats.

Writing epistles whenever your hands are caught in the the cookie jar to divert attention from the issues is all too common with you Ibos.

I dare all you Ibos to show the world that you have any other thing to live for other than "Yoruba is this and that" by agreeing to a truce, and we Yoruba will give you one extra month of bashing us without responding in kind.

This is the fourth time I'm talking about a truce as way to remind those with short memories about which tribe started tribalism and still can't do without it. But none of you can take it up cos you won't have anything else to talk about, Yoruba validate Ibos.

That is what I don't understand about Yorubas.Some Eboe unatics woke up one da went on rampage and Killed Akintola ,Fajuyi,Okotie-Eboh,Ahmadu Bello Balewa and many more. They then went on to hand over government to another Eboe and started making records like Ewu be na akwa etc to celebrate Today Yorubas carry on as if nothing happened.personally I do not "unnerstan"

My brother how many of us are ready to ' destroy' the 'zoo'? Can nnamdi kanu alone do it? How many of the Emeka Ofors, Ifeanyi Ubas? Orji Uzor kanus are in the forefront of the movement to 'destroy' the 'zoo'? My brother let's apply common sense here abeg.

Your writeup (tho quiet incoherent) still points to the bottom line of the issue
And that is that the 2 parties as well other parties within the fraudulent contraception should go their seperate ways back to their original setup and space in order for them to start truely charting a cause for themselves

If you and those people you mentioned are not ready
Other people are ready
When the time comes
You and those people you mentioned who believe they are not ready should step aside and allow those who are ready to do what they came to do
One thing is certain
This must definately happen
Only thing is the earlier it happens the better for everybody

- Must you expect us to honour a man guilty of genocide, after all, "all is fair in war" according to him?

Learn to speak the truth always and stop being double tongued. IGBOS are not your problem...you are your own problem. Fulani arselickers.

Please ignore those hateful, jealous and filthy popinjays. Just like during the subsidy removal campaigns, they are now also playing out a script of sectional interest. The grab and keep all that's Lagos to the exclusion of others, especially IGBOS, is falling down badly, hence this engendering of e-warriors to trumpet these endless chatter.

Erm... does that mean you do not want Biafr'a, anymore?? Let us know. Your people have been calling nigeria a 'zoo', and advocating for their own country. But you have now come here to say you want to continue living in Lagos.

Last time I checked, Lagos was still very much a part of Nigeria, that your folks keep calling a 'zoo. So does that mean Nigeria is no longer a 'zoo'? Please kindly make up your mind.

Cut the crap! You have started to recycle this your fake, deceitful propaganda on this thread again. Even me that am not Yoruba, I can see clearly that the Igbos are the aggressors. You keep regurgitating that story about an Oba threatening your people. Was the threat not issued in the presence of the Eze Ndi'Igbos in Lagos who were in attendance?? What did they do?? They clapped for the Oba like excited school kids and promised to follow his commands.

Yet you always omit this part from your stories, when you want to play the victim.

Your people are the ones that are always quick to label anyone who disagrees with them, as 'Yoruba'. Then they accuse the person of all the real and imaginary woes they can think of, before they launch their campaign of calumny and hatred.
