That's why they are trying every means to own Burna Boy forgetting he has Yoruba blood running in his vein. They seem to forget Burnaboy grew up among the yorubas too and he trained himself base on the legendary acumen of a great yoruba musician. Even so, BurnaBoy isn't even Igbo; his root points clearly to Port-Harcourt via his father aside being a yorubaman via his mother.

And I'm sure it's the yoruba blood doing great in him as is being done in Angelique kidjo too. Remember, her history also clearly stated that she was trained by her yoruba mom since childhood and added to that is the fact that, aside from being one of her icons, she trained herself in line with the musical prowess of Fela too to the extent of even singing some of his songs in some of her numerous international shows.

Burna boy's name is Ebunoluwa. That is how he derived his stage name.
His mother, a Yoruba woman was a member of Fela's band, and she has music in her.
His father is from Port Harcourt.

Igbos are both human and reputational kidnappers. Hence, they try to claim successful people. Stealing is in their blood.

That was how they called Dangote Dan ego te and Namadi Sambo as Nnamadi. Heck, they even claimed Obasanjo was born to an Anambra man.

Don't cry it. I gave you fact; his mother is yoruba and you started foaming in the mouth with insult. And in the end, you did the same thing I complained about: claiming land not belonging to you can be detrimental. You seem to forget it was the reason why the people of the city shed the blood of your kinsmen some decades back aside chasing some away.
I just advise you before the same happen again. Claim only what belong to you. All tribes in Port-Harcourt have reiterated times without numbers that none of them are igbos but you won't care to listen because of the oil in the city and because it's the most developed you can cling to. Don't say we don't warn you before the indigenes turn the heads of your kinsmen in there to 'a dozen a dime' in the streets of Port-Harcourt. #Bye.

Stop lying to yourselves, the dichotomy between the Yoruba Muslims and Christians however subtly hidden, But as a consequence of the Yoruba Muslims blind loyalty to the caliphate, they have been rewarded with political and sociological power over their Christian counterparts all over the SW... check the list of top held positions in the SW region, majority of them are controlled by Yoruba Muslims.
the percentage of inter-religion marriage of yoruba are higher than any other tribal in africa.

You said Akintola of MURIC, not Akintola of Yorubaland. Does Akintola hold sway in any part of Yoruba land? Is he a leader of thought, conscience or religion? No
He is merely the leader of a one-man NGO. Have you ever seen any member of MURIC? No. It costs less than 150k to register your own Muric and be speaking rubbish.




You on the other hand are trying to attack the physical characteristics of Yorubas. You forget that you share same characteristics with the African baboon. You both are hairy, engage in chest beating and you have ape-shaped heads.

Unfortunately, like a lot of Igbos, you envy the bond and togetherness that Yorubas have. I actually don't blame you. Division, hatred and ostracism is part of your culture. Osu caste system is part of your culture. Maltreatment of Widows and shaving their hair is part of your culture. Beating up your parents in the name of age grade festival is part of your culture. It took the Supreme Court to force you to allow your own blood sisters inherit property.

Ojukwu's Widow was not allowed to contest Senatorial seat where she was born, they told her to go contest in her husband's village. At her husband's village, they pushed her back to where she was born.

Hatred, jealousy, wickedness, deprivation and segregation is the hallmark of Igbo culture. You are ashamed of it instead of fighting it, you are trying to rub it on others so that it looks normal. Wickedness is not normal, neither are you normal.

Igbos are behind Yorubas in every way. It has always been so. Always at the back, together with slaves.

You are truly wicked. All these Igbo guys will commit suicide when they read your post.

I endorse this post like Metaphysical always say!

Yoruba Muslims are not pure Yoruba blood. Yoruba Christians, look at Yoruba Muslims, do they look like you? When you see a Yoruba Muslim, just fixate very well for 20 seconds, look at him very well and you will be shocked; he is not one of you. 90% of Yoruba Muslims are skinny and very dark skin compared to Yoruba Christians who are brown to medium dark and with big body.


Yoruba Muslims you observed might be skinny due to paying attention to their diet and weight.

Many Yorubas are dark, same as other Nigerians, therefore your colour comment is not entirely valid.

I am quite unhappy this secret is out, it is something some of us know and use it to our advantage.

You see Igbos, they are more driven by emotion than logic. They can support the devil if he 'winds' them very well. They don't really think things through and lack tact, intelligence and wisdom in handling issues. They easily show their hands and so, if you are smart, you throw them in front to be dancing while you carry out the actual thing underground.

In politics, go and check. When PDP wants to attack Buhari in the legislature, they send an Abaribe. When Abacha wanted to be life President, he used Daniel Kanu. Even Zakzaky used Igbos to gather support.

Tomorrow, if I want to contest, I would get Igbos to carry banners in my support in Eagles Square. They are that cheap and senseless.

Lagos had an airport before Nigeria discovered oil. Lagos was developed before Nigeria had oil money and that's why Azikiwe the thief wanted to kill himself over Lagos.

Remember the Lagos FCT was limited to Bar beach area to Ajegunle down to ilupeju, every other place was Western Region. Ikeja wasn't part of it. Today Ikeja has more facilities than the entire SE combined and it wasn't part of the Federal capital.

As at when Awolowo flew by helicopter to the SS, the schoolkids he went to their school weren't wearing clothes to school.

Obafemi Awolowo University built with cocoa money had traffic lights installed before the entire SE states combined could get a single one.

Ikeja alone has Adeniyi Jones, Oba Akran, Ogba, Oregun, and many more industrial estates. These were not created with oil money but foresight of Yoruba leaders.

Lagos built the Lekki bridge in 11 months. Not up to a year.
Multiply 11 years by the number of alphabets in Igbo, you have 11x 4 =44.

The bridge built by Yorubas in Lagos within 11 months, the 5 states of your backwards muddy region couldn't do it in 44 years.

Deep down in your innermost mind, I'm sure you're already cursing your mother for not allowing a Yoruba man father you.

Brother you are again truly Wicked. This comment is more devastating than the loss they suffered during the civil war.

Ojukwu might just run away from his grave disguised like a woman and jump straight inside hell fire.

if we don't deal with those people with strong hand, they would think Yorubas are gentle and would swallow everything.

I like how you were civil in your approach. Hence, I would also reply you in a civil manner.

Firstly, you saw that not one, two, three or even 5 monikers attached Yorubas on this thread. Somehow, you said they were other people using igbo monikers to attack Yorubas.

Secondly, you failed to either scold or caution those insulting Yorubas. Instead, you provided an alibi for them. This is despite the fact that from the first page, Igbos have been insulting Yorubas.

Thirdly, you took sides with your Igbo ethnicity by asking if people must bring Igbos into the discourse. Using your logic, why are you doing on this thread? They wrote Yoruba on it and you still entered.

You are an enlightened person and presumably educated too. Sorry to say, but you are a hypocrite and people like you are a problem to Igbos. You see the truth but primordial sentiments have impaired your judgement.

This is how educated and enlightened Igbos were making all kinds of excuses while Kanu was insulting Yorubas. Ezekwesili, Ekwueme, Ben Nwabueze, etc. All those who should have scolded him were pussyfooting and indulging him. Go and ask Chidoka what his foolishness cost him.

Don't try to play neutral while exonerating Igbos who come in here to insult Yorubas. Meanwhile, you expect a pat on the back for those disrespectful people. That won't be tolerated here.

There is no real or fake Yoruba. Every Yoruba are thesame in terms of ingenuity.

The only people that term their own fake are the Igbos. Osu Caste system and even the Muslims among you guys.

Why should Yoruba align with the Igbo for a greater future? Have our progress ever been dependent on the Igbo at any time in our history? What exactly do you mean by that statement?

What have you Igbos ever achieved that hasn't been already achieved by the Yorubas?

The Yoruba man's yesterday is the Igbo man's Future!!!
