Truth be told, there is this saying during my secondary school days that, if you are having problems with everyone around you, then you are the problem, not others.

I'm Igbo but I've observed that in several countries where mostly Igbos relocate to and reside, they will usually have issues with the locals or natives of that country. English-speaking Cameroon left Nigeria to join French-speaking Cameroon because they felt Igbos were too dominating, though they may not be having it any better currently in Cameroon. SA recently attacked Nigerians, mostly Igbos, due to the unruly behavior of some. We heard of India and China previously. Now Pakistan. We urgently need to learn how to be civil in our ways and behave ourselves. Being wealthy isn't a reason to become lawless and feel 'untouchable'. Someone just opened a thread on this topic yesterday about Nigerians, especially Igbos, not behaving themselves properly in foreign lands. We are extremely confident in ourselves and capabilities, yes, but then it gets too much to the extent that it becomes repugnant and unbearable. Some Igbos might think it is envy or jealousy when other tribes criticize us but yet fail to ask themselves why we are we, out of all other immigrants, the major targets in foreign lands? Whenever other tribes within Nigeria give us sincere or genuine feedback sometimes, we call them jealous or envious when we should be listening instead.

Here in America, it almost seems as though most Americans (whites and blacks especially) know the 3 major Nigerian tribes. Once they know you're Nigerian, the next question they ask is if you're Igbo or Yoruba. I recently met a black american who, upon hearing i'm Igbo, said, 'I thought they said Igbos are the scammers'. An American-born African former coworker of mine, upon hearing i'm Igbo, made a certain facial expression and when I asked her why, she said 'it's because of the things you people do'. When I asked her to mention them, even though I already knew where she was heading to, she was hesitant, probably because we were at work. Another one told me stories of how his African father had warned him explicitly to stay away from Igbos that, 'they are untrustworthy and are thieves', because of his past dealings with Igbos.

The strong culture to be rich in Igboland drives many of us to do certain things we shouldn't be doing and there lies the root cause of the problem.

Which side?

Itsekiri?


Nigerians would all be targeted. Even Hausa may be amongst the returnees but we know who has been mentioned as purveyors of drugs and illicit trade

franchasng:
shutup!!!


Igbos are the head of drug trafficking! Especially Anambra guys! So shutup!!

I am Igbo too, I am pro Igbo more than Ojukwu and Nnamdi KANU but I cannot condone nonsense!

Nnamdi KANU need to use Radio Biafra platform to advice all these Anambra boys to stop that nonsense drug trafficking business. The time for it has passed. The world is more technology driven now than before and you can hardly byepass drug screening at various airports nowadays and those of them that rely on one useless juju should know that the time is up.

Legit hustling pays more than all these illegal stuffs at the long run. Illegal business pay faster but have no future.

Stop covering evil just because it affects your people.

Yes Yorubas traffic drugs too but not as much as Igbos. Yorubas abroad are more involved in internet wire fraud and those at home are more into money ritual and fetish practices but drug trafficking is Igbo identity and it's becoming too bad!!!

ewigmee:
Well done my Delta brother. Who mentioned who? You and your like? Some were supporting south Africans to kill Nigerians believing all to be Igbo, but the list said other wise. When killing starts, they will not ask for tribal identity- Nigeria is the word. Just as they did not as your holy ones to stay back.

For me is capital NO TO DRUG.

Peace out.

selemempe:
igbos didnt start selling drugs today. infact its now less than it used to be b4. why did the profiling start nw? who told the embasssy about igbos? is ''igbo'' written on any traveling document? why did it start nw that abike dabiri started posting tribal baits on social media whenever a crime is commited abroad.

u may not knw hw serious this is because it is igbos today....typical yorubas, whenevr u support evil against igbos it always comes back to u but u never ever learn

topboss:
I KNOW U ARE A YORUBA HIDING BEHIND THE MONIKER TO PUSH YOUR TRIBALISTIC AGENDA.

SORRY, WE CANNOT ALL THINK LIKE U.

THE WORLD IS BEAUTIFUL BECOS WE ALL THINK DIFFERENT REGARDLESS OF INFORMATION U WANT TO USE TO MANIPULATE PUBLIC OPINION.

NIGHTMAREOO7:
Exactly igbos need to wake to start playing the same game..
There are more IGBOS outside and they need to use that to their advantage to also Tarnish the image of others (especially yorubas) they are they majorly ones in scamming and online fraud.
Igbos need to get sense and start playing the same game, telling their western spouses, wives and friends, that YORUBAS are the major culprits.
But rather they are outside championing one nigeria.

I will soon create a facebook page, my people must wise up by force.
It's getting too much for these yorubas

Ugosample:
actually

Iranians are Persian and not Arab

get that

NIGHTMAREOO7:
Pls report that account now to SEUN that's a fake account that boy has been peddling lies

ziziangel:
Sorry, both the heading and your quote makes NO SENSE

Ibrahimmrfish:
Pakistan people are the same people with India,they use to be the same country.Urdu is the same language with hindi,the difference is a little,Urdu have a little Arabic influence but both speakers of Urdu and hindi understand each other,it is just like Nigeria Hausa and Niger Hausa.

Chimaokigwe:
I'm India, Igbos are hunted like animals. They would stop you if you're Nigerian and once they discover you're Igbo, they release other Nigerians and hold you.

India is Pakistan's neighbour and I'm not surprised this is happening.

shamecurls:
You are current!

cosade:
Please check your facts.

scholes0:
what is the difference between Niger Hausa and northern Nigerian Hausa?

NwaAmaikpe:




Maybe he was asked why he was in their country and he said, "It's what the erection lesult caused" and they instantly considered him a sexual predator.

But this is all shades of wlong.
I don't see a varid leason for an ordinaly poor third-world countly to deport those umuafors.

What was his clime?
He had a hoteru leservation.
He had a Visa.
In fact, evelything was comprete.

This is a vely big plobrem for us if it is now a clime to be Igbo.

It may not be a crime to be Igbo but it is a crime to not only have an Igbo accent but to have one with those consonant crisis.

YorubaHero12:
[s]No matter how you try, you can never spoil the name of people that go about their life discreetly.
I’m a Yoruba and I live in USA, I took a Uber once and the lady (Uber driver) an American asked me about my country coz of my accent. I told her Nigeria and she immediately asked me which tribe, she paused and asked me not to say it that she will guess it. To my suprise, she said I’m yoruba, I asked her how does she know, she said I talk calmly and that the other tribe in Nigeria (Igbo) are lousy and criminal minded.
I was shocked about that and I had to tell her that there are good and bad people in every Nigeria tribe that she shouldn’t generalize, but she said she had many examples of different breed of them to justify her assumption.
Instead of you to try to correct your people, you chose to go on Facebook to destroy the Yorubas image. They’ve started deporting people based on tribe now in Pakistan, what will you do if that attitude gets to Europe? Isn’t it the right time to correct this notion of drugs pushing? What are Ohaneze and the leaders doing?[/s]

Chimaokigwe:
[s]Report which lie? Those are absolute truths. You can go and report my moniker to the United Nations.

Lots of Igbos are afraid of the truth because it involves soul searching.[/s]

NIGHTMAREOO7:
U are a pathetic liar! Opening different account to like ur own comments will not save u from the bitter truth
Are these not ur yoruba brothers to be beheaded in Saudi for drugs?
