Sammy07:That is the Igbo man for you. It's correct and okay when it favours them, but it's dubious and fake when it doesn't. They're questioning the Ijaw one but aren't questioning the Igbo one because it favours them against Yoruba, lol. These people and their paranoia-induced cognitive dissonance sha. 8 Likes |

pazienza:Lol, the entire population of Equitorial Guinea is not even up to the Yoruba population in Benin alone. This is the ethnic demographics of Equitorial Guinea's 1,300,000 (1. 3 million) population: Fang 85.7% Bubi 6.5% Mdowe 3.6% Annobonese 1.6% Other 1.4% Bujeba 1.1%. So which Igbo population in EQ will "cancel out" Yorubas in Benin, who are the second biggest ethnic group after the Fon. Why are you Igbos so deluded this much? Why do you boldly make dubious, fraudulent claims? Paranoid, lying clowns! 2 Likes |

DontBullshitMe:Did you have comprehension issue ni abi what? I wasn't saying 2006 census, Inec voters registration e.t.c are the exact population of NIGERIAN tribes but at least it gave us clue. Yes, 2006 census, Yorubas are more than igbos even when you remove Lagos. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Nigerian_states_by_population The same thing with Inec voters registration, Yorubas are more. https://www.google.com/search?q=inec+voters+registration+statistics&client=ms-opera-mini-android&channel=new Ncc voice and data subscribers by states, someone should please help me with this, Sammy07 What else do you want?

Benevento:You are a very mischievous person. I will debunk your lies one after the other. The 2006 census was alleged to be marred with irregularities, and even if we are to go by it result, it does not in anyway suggest that the Yoruba population is higher than that of the Igbos. If anything, the result suggests that Yoruba has a little bit of catching up to do. In that census, majority of SW states population may be majorly Yoruba but considerable percentage is Igbos that can not be overlooked. 10-20% can be safely assumed to be of Igbos population in SW state leaving out Lagos state that Igbos population should be around 40%. In the same vein, the SE states are not even that bad. Imo and Anambra are far higher than Osun and Ogun. These are states that Igbos make up 95-97% of the population. In the list of the first 5 states, I can even see Rivers that Igbos have close to 35%. Concerning voters registration, put political apathy into consideration and you will realise that an average Igbo values commerce to politics, sadly (even though this is gradually changing). Mr man, your falsehood will no longer fly. |

pazienza:The Igbo in Sierra Leone did not match the Yoruba both in population and influence. Are you okay at all. You still have Ojeh/Egungun (masquerade) and Odeh (hunting) societies all over Sierra Leone and the plenty Yoruba words used in everyday Krio lingo. Why do you guys relish lying this much. The Liberated Yorubas taken to Sierra Leone far outnumbered the Igbo. I will keep puncturing your codeine-influenced dubious claims. 1 Like |

https://www.nairaland.com/5875972/1952-nigeria-ethnicity-census-result This remains the last official census result of Nigeria where ethnicity were considered. Before then was 1931 and 1921, and Ndiigbo were clear leaders in all. Everything else is speculative. Until a new one is conducted, Ndiigbo remains the most populous ethnic group in the South. To the best of my knowledge, a champion remains a champion until a new tournament is conducted and he loses. But until that new tournament is conducted, he remains a defending champion, and no matter what bitter contenders might think, the champion retains his belt. Stop disturbing my mentions with emotional tantrums. Only mention me when you have official result to beat 1952 numbers. You can go visit Yemi Oluwale for Ewedu NBS stats and masturbate on that, if it makes you feel good. But don't bring me in. I only deal with official figures from neutral sources. 7 Likes 2 Shares |

DontBullshitMe: Baba say 40% of Lagos is Igbo, you for kuku say 99%...... nonsense. You see I no get time for Nyamiris senseless argument. You can as well explain to us how 50% of 10m and 9m subscribers in Ogun and Oyo respectively are Igbos. If you think I will start arguing with you on how Igbos constitute 40% of Lagos population leaving 60% for Yorubas(the indigenous) foreigners and other 250 ethnic groups to share(dumbest thing I've read this year), then you're a joker. 5 Likes

If we are to go by that Bullshit of a guy claim of Lagos being 40% Igbos. Then this should be the demography of Lagos, going by dontbullshit's logic. Igbos 40% YORUBAS 30% (THE INDEGINOUS FOR THAT MATTER) HAUSAS 20% Others 10% (foreigners + other other ethnic groups) You see why you guys should stop arguing with Yeebos on this forum, these yeebos guys are not worth your time. 3 Likes
