every region is represented in yemi telas team ... Its the perfect quota system team .. Which shows that Yoruba's are not bigot ..

It seems you don't know the difference between marginalization and merit.
The igbo footballers got there on merit. If northern footballers are better, nobody would have any problem with them dominating.
I am sure you can't say the same for our politics where undeserving people dominate.
You can't tell me that fulani/northern domination of our politics is on merit. That would make your thread even more ridiculous.

ThisMeansWars:
oh so there are no northerners with enough merit to be in the under 17 team ... Shiiiiiit .. Hypocrites everywhere ...

Those northerners buhari put there didn't get their on merit right ... It merit when it favors Igbo... Its marginalization when it doesn't ...gerarahia

I'm glad you realize this, so why are Ibos complaining about political appointments?

Who wan hawk gala for dem? Who wan smuggle drugs for them? Who wan dey impregnate dem sister carry do baby factory for them? Wetin una sabi for politics wey una dey find post?

Leave Chike for makate before them carry fake streetlight full Abuja

My friend, stop deceiving yourself. Even the most ardent fulani would tell you Nigeria's best footabllers are in the east, just like Nigeria's best table tennis players are from the west and the best polo players are from the north.
When it comes to team sports, then the east is where you should go for talents. That is the truth.
Ofcourse, there are probably be some very talented northern footballers, but the overwhelming talent comes from the east, so it is not surprising if there are no northerners in the team.
If Nigeria had a polo team, ofcourse, i would expect it to be dominated by northerners. I wouldn't raise too much objection, if all the players were from the north even though we may some have some talented polo players in the east.

ThisMeansWars:
okay agreed then ...

So why do Igbo's shout marginalization when we simplybhave the best politicians from north and south west ... Why not accept that politics is north and sw thing and support whoever is there the way everyone supports ibos when it comes to football?

Yanks101:
[s]If you believe you have better politicians and technocrats than the SE, then you are seriously deluded.
Give me three northerners in american or UK politics. More like finding a needle in a hay stack.
Can you compare the standard of living with the north and the SE? What of the MDGs actualization?[/s]

The founding father of Nigeria was Nnamdi azikiwe.
He was the most influential in getting independence and creating a Nigerian nation. When the north wanted the British to continue, it was Nnamdi azikiwe that discouraged them.
In the first republic of the 60s, where there was a bit of merit, Nigerian politics were dominated of sorts by igbo politicians.
It was the civil war that changed things and the igbos had to begin afresh relinguishing political power to the SW.
The current politicians of especially northern heritage are definitely not that good. We can see how much they have destroyed Nigeria.
They can't even adequately educate their own people.

QuotaSystem:
In case you didn't realize, all politics is local. I guess you don't know the first Mayor/Governor of Enugu was a Fulani man named Umaru Altine.

You Ibos are completely clueless about politics. Check your history.

ThisMeansWars:
dude ... They are not that good and they have been in power more than any tribe or region in the country .. Are you kidding? Smh

ThisMeansWars:
and you no happy say Hausas wants to make Nigeria that southerners misruled for 16years better?

lawrenceunaa:
and u forgot that the 16yrs misrule was a reflection of 40yrs of northern misrule.
Ode think b4 u type.
Abacha is a saint...buhari

ThisMeansWars:
