Why you using others to push falsehood? I spotted two Yoruba in that video.

It's called cross cultural influence.

You're very tribalistic.

So much unnecessary negativity.

I hope you find peace.

So it is cross-cultural beauty after all. Why start out with falsehood?
Re: 100 Years Of Igbo Beauty by OrangeOlamide: 7:54am On Jan 07, 2019
It's on the popular hairstyles tht Igbos have used.

Hairstyles are rarely exclusiv to one group.

You people on here hate Igbos so much it's sickening.


This it literally the least offensive video, it's celebrating hair and beauty

And you try and turn into tribal wars.

Shame on you

Shame on you for falsifying information. Dont make exclusive claim for a cross cultural product or work of art if indeed you know its global.

What you guys do is deliberate misinformation to people in foreign lands whose access to information is only via social media. They have no clue whos is Ibo and who is not Ibo....so when you make a claim as exclusively yours, when they see that same hairstyle on a non-Igbo they will have doubts.

Some of them also are looking for ethnic materials to make journals, books, blog sites. They will take this video and call it Igbo.

We have many many such records online submitted by your lying brothers to defraud and deceive the world.

See attached....this is women of Akure/Akoko background deceitfully claimed as Igbo.

Stop your fraud and misinformation. Be content in your own culture and stop stealing other's to claim as yours.

The women in this picture have never been Ibo, are not Ibo and will never be Ibo....yet they are claimed as Ibo women. Why? grin

Re: 100 Years Of Igbo Beauty by YellowSimba(op): 10:53am On Jan 07, 2019
If you people ever want to know why One Nigeria is a myth.

It's because of men like this

A simple hair and beauty video celebrating the popular beauty styles among Igbos.

And this man has turned into tribal wars.

Pay no mind to that yoruber bigot. That's how all yorubers behave, very disgusting and tribalistic set of people

It is not a tribal war. You lack capacity for reasoning.

Is it a show of hair styles amongst Igbo, or is it to show cross-cultural styles?

Igbo hair style does not represent Nigeria. So when you have Yoruba in there you are working on pushing an idea that Igbo own that hairstyle.

There are people who market hairstyling and there are hairstylists that make income from ethnic hair styles. When you push out false and misrepresented information you impact their business.

Can you see the multiplying effect it can have?

It makes sense, during the colonial era, different Nigerian ethnic groups were more exposed to each other and people took different styles and cultural nuances.

I don't understand why this has to be an issue. The video was amazing. I hope they do other Nigerian tribes soon!

The video is not produced in colonial time. The title was not made in colonial time. The collage were pictures spanning different times. In fact the video is intended to showcase the Igbo in a particular social image. There is nothing wrong in that....but it is fraudulent to use non-Igbos and promote them as Igbo cultural value.

It is a fraud! Thats why this is important.


Did you see the picture of Ondo/Edo axis women I attached?

Everytime you type Igbo women they show up in list of results. This happens because an Igbo person has blogged or written about Igbo and used non-Igbo women to feature the article. They wrote about Igbo women that rebelled against whites. Well, where are the Igbo women....? They splashed Yoruba women on the story. Fraud!

Type Yoruba women in internet, all the pictures will be Yoruba. Type Hausa women. It will all be Hausa and Fulani. Type Ijaw or Edo, thats all you see for each type. Do same for Igbo....you see Igbo, Hausa, Yoruba, Edo, Ijaw....you even see African Americans that have no clue where on map to find Igbo.

Have some pride in what is yours....stop claiming what doesnt belong to you as yours. Its fraud!


Yoruba, the most Superior race on earth!
Re: 100 Years Of Igbo Beauty by YellowSimba(op): 8:09pm On Jan 07, 2019
No one said Igbos own any of the hairstyles. The video is of the hairstyles popular among Igbos.

Nothing about the video suggested any of your assumptions.

I don't know if you have a personal problem with Igbos.

But it's literally just a hair video.

Bros, we are versed in tactics and strategies of cultural campaigns. Very versed indeed!

There are many many similar publications and images on internet using other cultures with deliberate intent to serve as net Igbo promoter. You cannot deny this truth. I gave you one already and even asked you to query the internet and judge for yourself.

This is another production aimed at repeating your fraud on internet.

Like I said it will be nice and cool if you use your own to produce and promote your own, not using works of people you denigrate and label as enemy to earn credit for your advantage. It is fraud! grin

While there may be some representing on other sites, I think it's obvious that the intention of the video was not to do that. Aside from the influence of the gele in 1950 and world influence from 1970, the other styles are Igbo.

I think where someone mentioned it was cross cultural influence did the best justice to the thread. I found two known Yoruba images in there, the gele is one. In factvthat woman in Gele is Mrs Kuti, Fela's mother in her youth.

Again, cross cultural influence of Nigerian hairstyles would have been appropriate as a label.

Most times intent is hidden. For whatever it is, it can even be damaged when the outward narration is explicit. ...but I get your point. grin

Stop explaining yourself to an evil Muslim or you derail a good thread.
Re: 100 Years Of Igbo Beauty by OrangeOlamide: 12:06am On Jan 08, 2019
I enjoyed the styles anyway.

Especially 1970s

She is Igbo, maybe from Enugu or Anambra.
Re: 100 Years Of Igbo Beauty by YellowSimba(op): 9:01pm On Jan 12, 2019
Anambra and Kogi state have the most beautiful women.
Re: 100 Years Of Igbo Beauty by ImperialYoruba: 3:47pm On Jan 14, 2019
You dont have beautiful women.

What you have is cosmetically beautified women.

There is difference. If i hear one more word about Ibo beautiful you will be in serious trouble.
Re: 100 Years Of Igbo Beauty by DejiSantos: 12:30am On Feb 26, 2019
Typical tribalism

These are our Nigerian comrades

There are beautiful women from every region
