Why Are The Yoruba So Obsessed With Igbos On Twitter? by Nobody: 4:52pm On Mar 30, 2019
First of all I'm a Benin guy to make things clear.

One thing I observed on Twitter is the hated given to the igbos by Yoruba's "celebrity". I've never seen where influential igbos on Twitter talk about South west or Yoruba's.

It's always Yoruba famous people even with verified handle insulting the south east, why is that?

Wetin igbos do una? Election never finish so why the hate for people that don't send you?

They keep mentioning abia, in fact I'll prefer to live in abia state than to live in ekiti,kwara,osun and co.

You people brought than many of your kingmens for a Fulani man and you think igbos are your problem?

Igbos didn't vote a Fulani buhari not because he's a Fulani but because he's too dull to be president but the Yorubas carry am for head like gala

It doesn't really matter, I have gone through his posts and I've seen several derogatory remarks he made about Yoruba, even when he was not provoked. Whether Benin or ibo, he is a confirmed doofus.

I am always surprise about how Yoruba elite always talk about Igbos but you will hardly see an Igbo person that give a mess about them.Igbos see them as royal slaves to the Northerners.

In essence, you are just defending the Benins against the the perceived insults from Yorubas abi?
Why then do you insult Yoruba when the topic has nothing to do with Benin?

It is a two way thing. I dont see it ending soon.

The two tribes hatred for each other divided the south south, some like the yorubas while other prefer ibos to yorubas. You belong to the later. My neighbours in Benin prefer to rent their house out to Yorubas rather than ibos and another Benin man does not want to associate with a Yoruba man.

In my opinion I think the hatred can only be stopped if the ibos wants

Don't mind them! If the Igbos retaliate now they (yorubas) will start shouting on how Igbos have refused to respect and love their host.
And I always ask them how do you expect people you love to hate to shower you with love??
How is that possible??
Re: Why Are The Yoruba So Obsessed With Igbos On Twitter? by Ikechu12: 6:09pm On Mar 30, 2019
There's an image of a brain with the word Igbo, Igbo, Igbo written all over it. They used to circulate it on NL as a typical Afonja brain. Since I've been on this forum, I confirmed it's true. Anytime you don't see Afonja obsessively mentioning igbo in anything and everything, best believe that nigga is sick and may need fluids.

First of all its "Igbo" and not ibo you incontinent dunce, secondly majority of South Southerners prefer to align/relate with Igbos 100% over yorubas. I have this facts in good confidence because I have lots of friends and in-laws from the South South who bluntly tell me they can NEVER trust you people, and also opened up to me that they are safer and more at home with Igbos. But the South South people mostly have a problem with Igbos because of the unease of been dragged into Biafra just like that(which is understandable) . And that's why intermarriage between the Igbos and other ethnic groups in the SS is probably the highest in Nigeria. The only South South ethnic groups that seem cool with you guys are the Itshekiri's (because of lingual and cultural similarities with yorubas), and to some extent the Edo/Ishan people... the rest for lack of a better perspective would rather align with the Almajiri's up North than mess with you guys on any level.

What's funny is they spread hate then get offended when you give them that same hate back. Prior to coming to this forum, I had no ill feelings towards them infact I actually saw them as brothers/sisters, I came to this forum and other social media and saw them for who the Bleep they are and now, shit I ain't ashamed to say I despise their asses. I recall several of them accuse Nnamdi Kanu of "teaching Igbos hate" but I remember long before NK started, NL was filled with daily Igbo bashing by those Afonja idiots. Heck I believe the hate NK has towards them was created by them considering the video he made in 2012 when he was protesting and shouting for all Nigerian. I believe wholeheartedly the reactions of Yorubas each time Massob members were killed created the hate he has for them.

U just talked rubbish towards the end.
The hatred is being channeled by Yorubas so why blame IGBOS for it

My brother I'm not igbo or yoruba too, but I agree with u serious, all over social media, facebook twitter and instagram. Their hatred for Igbo is too much and sometimes it makes me sick.
I saw one post on instagram the other day and the poster ne is not igbo..
All of a sudden some Yoruba guys jumped on and start shouting igbo this, igbo that on the comments..
I had to jump in and ask them what has igbo got to do with this pls..?
And they started insulting me angry
Re: Why Are The Yoruba So Obsessed With Igbos On Twitter? by Nobody: 6:25pm On Mar 30, 2019
No tribe has spread more hate in the past 4 years more than the Igbos. Even their politics is solely based on hate. You need to stop dreaming.
