yeah i been to brooklyn when brooklyn was brooklyn. now its gentrified and full of whites. there was this guy who owned a naija restaurant on fulton street called demu cafe. may still be there. but ermm yeah brooklyn is like london in that its congested and popo is all over so the guys there pretty much were struggling. you cant do good business out there without getting caught by the popo. so i wasnt really impressed with it from a ' being comfortable ' point of view. but i like the cultural aspect of greenwich village and washington square park and central park. but all the real hustlers are in chicago. trust me.

Come this babe, are you new on nairaland or what? Even I, a confirmed non tribalist (I am married to an Igbo man) have been shocked at the amount of hatred the igbos throw at yorubas. I kept wondering what we bought from them on credit lol. Or please listen to Kanu on Radio Biafra. Every other statement if it is not about Awusa-Fulani it is about 'yoruba-cowards'. And the 'cowards' part must be attached. It's like a compound name . Yoruba-cowards. I have been on nairaland for years. And i tell you, the igbos brought on the hatred first. Even I, married to an igbo man have felt compelled sometimes to respond to the unneccessary hostility directed at yorubas. Everything that goes wrong with igbo people is caused by yorubas.

A person can only take so much before reciprocating in kind. When you sow hatred what do you expect to reap?

mayorchelsea:
I'm no tribalist but if we yorubas reciprocate the gesture of the people of the east towards us,it'll only make things worse.When Olu Falae was kidnapped,some Igbos said it can never happen in the east and called us cowards.You Should Have been here to preach this humanity message back then

It still doesn't change anything. This issue of fulani raping and killing innocent women is getting out of hand,it's either we put all hands on deck and stop this evil or we sit back on nairaland and throw attacks while Nigeria continues to boil. That is my message, you are free to take it or go ahead with your tribalistic jibberish. There are people that have made up their minds to be nairaland bigots, and there is nothing that can change them.

“We do not want our Southern neighbours to
interfere in our development. We have never
associated ourselves with the activities of these
people. We do not know them, we do not
recognize them, and we share no responsibility in
their actions. We shall demand our rights when the
time is ripe. If the British quit Nigeria now at this
stage, the Northern people would continue their
uninterrupted conquest to the sea”. - Sir Tafawa
Balewa (1947)

“We the people of the North will continue our stated
intention to conquer the South and to dip the Koran
in the Atlantic ocean after the British leave our
shores.” - Sir Ahmadu Bello (1957)

Nigeria is just a mere geographical contraption -
Awolowo

“The new nation called Nigeria should be an estate
of our great grandfather Uthman Dan Fodio. We
must ruthlessly prevent a change of power. We must use the minorities in the North as willing tools and the South as a conquered territory and never allow them to rule over us and never allow them to have control over their future”. - Sir Ahmadu Bello (1960)

Cityguy:
This silly bickering between Igbos and Yorubas on NL has to stop. What this calls for is proper appraisal and collective condemnation of the atrocious and muderous inclinations of the Fulani herdsmen. This has to stop.

GodMode:
Have you seen any northern politician condemn the herdsmen

You should read this:

Ihuomadinihu:
I'm not even bothered about the Northern politicians,some of them are sympathetic to these terrorist acts. I'm only concerned about some idiotss from the South West that justify the molestation of Nigerian women.

GodMode:
Unless you're living outside Nigeria, you better be bothered... Cause it can lead to another civil war. When "some idiotss from the South West" start killing the herdsmen your South East idiots will see it as an opportunity to vent their hatred on the South West..

You may even support it instead of wondering why they are not avenging the "molested Nigerians"..

Shymm3x:
Loool.

You hit the nail right on its head, with the best bit of the sledge hammer. However, the average Igbo is too emotional to see that. Even me as a Yoruba person, I'm very weary of Yoruba folks cos a lot will smile in ya face, turn ya back, and it's a next thing. Yorubas are just like ethnic Brits. They will smile with you all day, make you tea, tell you their life history and family - with sarcasm here and there. But the same muthaphuckas would be the ones to fvck you over lool. Unlike let's say Germans who will openly show you that they're racist and they don't like ya guts loool.

Let them keep acting up till Yorubas fvck them over again lol. But the only problem is that they will just end up crying again for the next 500 years disturbing future generations of Yorubas with their tears loool.

Ihuomadinihu:
^Quite incomprehensive,i don't know what you are ranting about. If Nigerians really want to fight and stop this menance then all must unite. Pls be reasonable if you really want to mention my comment.
The issues that can lead to a civil war is already on ground.

sukkot:
you know I thought the bible was just an ordinary book like you until my eyes got opened to it. if i sit down with you and show you some things in the bible, you will be blown away. its a very powerful book but the power and depth of it is not harnessed in the churches because it is not a religious book. it is an esoteric book meaning the messages are hidden. it is also a book of astro-theology, astronomy, astrology, numerology, amongst a few of the numerous esoteric wisdom hidden in it.

Goodboiyy:
When I tell people that Igbo and Yoruba are the biggest Fool in Nigeria People will think am joking.. Just some weeks ago This same Fulani people destroyed Yoruba Farm, Instead of Them (Yoruba) to confront There Fulani master they started accusing Igbo.. Y the jobless NL youth Started
there E-Battle .. Now this Same Fulani re now in SE, Instead of them to chase them, They re here on NL insulting Yoruba.. just read comments from Front page.

Rubbish...

9jacrip:
Each time I look at the picture on my phone, I shudder.

Couldn't he at least, from how the man appears to be struggling to get himself together and even unarmed, fall back?

I always try not to imagine the end result of the picture and if I do, I like to imagine the cutlass man having a change of heart or people/polixe stopped him.

Ihuomadinihu:
You've met your match. Birds of same feather....very united in hatred for Igbos. I'm only waiting for you to take it straight(one on one) to those people saying negative things to yorubas. Running underground in 1 or 2 igbo threads is quite childish i must say.

GodMode:
The war was caused by igbos and probably only one corrupt yoruba idiot..

Igbos had fought the northerners around 1955 before they started the main war..

zoboizee:
All herdmen are not evil. Only the wicked and criminally minded amongst them. And in every society, there will always be criminals and people who will always avenge wrongs done against them even if it is perceived, rather than allowing the rule of law to take its course. Fulani herdmen livelihood is their herd and anything that hurt the herd hurt them. So, to forgive and forget is not in their dictionary. Any wrong to them or their animals must and should be avenged to the best of their knowledge . its like a debt to them and must be paid, whether now or later. There had been documented cases mostly in the middle belt where their acts have left sorrow, tears and blood. What is currently experienced in the southwest and southeast is nothing compared to the herd crises in the north and resultant escalated and reprisal violence experienced in the north over the years. Even amongst the fulanis, their had been time the herdsmen are compelled to pay compensation to fulani farmers if their crops are destroyed. How they settle it amicably with no reprisal or disorderly conducts are what matters. There will always be roaming herdsmen whether fulani or other northern tribes because all herdsmen are not fulani as far as nigeria is concerned. Most of these herdsmen don't even own the cows but some wealthy individuals out there that are sometimes not even related to them by tribe but whom they are rearing the animals for and being paid as their livelihood. From time immemorial, most people in africa have always had issues with herdsmen. From farmland to water source, in sudan, kenya, uganda, mali, nigeria, ethiopia and so on. Since there is no political will to stop it, then we should make our votes counts during elections. Make it one of the reasons why we vote politicians into power and not via attacks or cattle rustling.

Another failed attempt to revise history by the people that their forefathers were lazy intellectually, inept military wise and lacks the skills and acumen to create one.

The same way your worthless and shameless uncle Chinua Achebe, tried to revise history with his last book and he failed woefully, you have also failed.

The Dahomey Kingdom was resoundingly defeated by just a battalion of Yoruba Army -- The Lisabi warriors and their army never recovered from it. Read up on the history of the yorubas and come back here for Free Online Lecture.

I wish there was any history of y1bos to even read apart from selling themselves off as slaves, dancing round a pot of boiling human being and the leading of 3million of them to either their timely or untimely death by one 33year old spoilt, sissy, cradle robber, coward, traitor of a bastard,

lol, lagos ibadan highway journalists.

so no picture of this protest other than to show us durbar cattle festival.

"yorubas are slaves in our own land" - Olu Falae (2015).

Shymm3x:
Loool. Do I look like the type who scared to tell an Igbo straight to his face that he's an emotional and hateful being? You mean the Igbos I see everyday and have his dargs, and the same one who ring my phone every time they get in trouble? - bwahaha. I will say everything I said to an Igbo in his face and inside his bedroom - and if he acts funny, I'll knock his arse out. And if I can't knock him out, I will clap/shank him. I'm crazy like that.

You just want me to hate Igbo but I ain't no nyggah got time to be bottling up and expending negative energy on folks, man. I don't care about no Igbo. But you can't deny me comic relief at the expense of Igbos. Laughing at people's expense is divine looooool.

Baby, don't cry, you gotta keep ya head up (2pac's voice) looooooooooool.

Ihuomadinihu:
I don't have the time to read up the bullpoo. Take it to the front page that is where hot and real E tribal wars are fought. Retracting back to a low profile page to spill nonesense is very 'childish' and inconsequential.

seunmsg:
They are on NL wailing about what's happening in south west.

sonofananimal:
what is this m0ron talking about

Did you think those women are telling truth?
How will fulani just come out and be raping Enugu WOMEN just like that

Think!! You EEDIOT
