if what things continue?

omoharry:
una don dey confess small small.Funny enough while you see it as a joke others take it to heart and feel that is how the two tribes are in reality .

jimyjames:

Marginalization

angelEmade:
very true. this item is worthy of front page. the mods should promote tribal unity
Most folks just come here to make jokes out of it believe it guys...it's all just for fun. Even me ...sometimes i shout 'amaka!' here just to piss off the igbos when there is a negative thread about them...and yes! when there is a skull mining thread i will also shout 'afonja!' lol
no bad vibes...m yoruba...but sure...one love

ClitRaider:

Thats is..
It just for fun.
but the mods are taking it to another level.
Imagine you got a ban cos you called someone a Igbo?
What's the meaning of Igbo for damn sake?
even Flat..head is censored, the moment you type that shit, it turns igbo.
Meanwhile those calling afonja, ewedu & Amala, brown roof roam free?!
That's the pathetic.
But no matter how hard the mods tried, Afonja is Afonja and Igbo will always be a Igbo from the godforsaken gully area of Niger.

jacksonkennedy:
this is a lie. The problem with you is short sightedness. You think APC defines the yorubas? I am yoruba but support PDP more. Yes I voted APC in 2015 but I support PDP more. I would have voted Atiku/Obi if I was in Nigeria.

Your shortsightedness doesn't allow you see how our two tribes dominated Nigeria from 1999 to 2007. Do you think that if we work together again that we won't dominate again and correct all the injustices of the north?

The yoruba and Ibo are progressive rivals who should know when to work together

jacksonkennedy:
that vague. Explain it more please

jimyjames:


Its not bad Igbo's are everywhere, so you are not far from the truth, there are Fulani Igbo's too

MyVILLAGEpeople:
That's true. Sometimes I do that tribal war thing here to catch fun and nothing else.

Sammy07:


*whistle*

jacksonkennedy:
what is this one saying? Ethnic champion.

jimyjames:


Look at Nigerian political system, see those that have ruled this country since after the civil war and where they come from , and you will realise there is no equality, look at federal projects , allocations and top federal appointments, you will see its clearly not equal.

banku:
For years into my adulthood, I believed in amicable relationship between Igbo and Yoruba in spite of warnings from the days of Akintola.

But realized too late the the respect and love Yoruba had for Igbo was never reciprocal. It was based on what Igbo got in Yoruba land: accommodation and tolerance never accorded in Igbo land.

Indeed Yoruba accommodation and tolerance were turned into dirty words. Some even claimed they would vomit if they hear those words again.

They turned accommodation and tolerance into rights they failed to give anyone, not even to their neighboring Igbo.

They then solidified the rights with fake statistics, ridiculous exaggerations and chest beating. They got so carried away they turned to "developers" not only in Nigeria but outside.

So they claimed Tribalism started when they could not become Western Nigeria Premier!

Imagine? With or without lipstick, a zoo inhabitant is still a monkey.

a cone will forever be a cone.

Op,you may be right but some are truly bitter souls full of envy like this one here.

jacksonkennedy:
you think English, French and German are not tribes?
Has what they fought for been solved?

A winner emerged from the Nigerian civil war and since then, your people have been reintegrated into Nigeria.
You have since produced a president, a VP, senate Presidents, chief justice, CBN governors and so on. You have produced multi millionaires, dominated some business sectors, live all over Nigeria and enjoy and suffer with the rest of Nigeria. The yoruba people are not your enemies, they are at best your rivals.

nisai:
They will never listen. Stop disturbing yourself. Most of us here were formerly liberals who believe in the live and let live principle, but today we are beginning to pull off that cloak. We now chose conservatism over liberalism thanks to their arrogance and chest beating.

Can you imagine what he was yapping on a thread that's meant for politeness. Taking a pacifist stance and making them see the importance and benefits to be gained therefor in the long run if they do same is a waste of time.

They do not understand this simple law of power. They misconstrue power as simply brawn; no strategy, no tactics, no logic, no insight etc Thank God they were compensated for their lack though ----- they have emotions in abundance!

This is why they call the Yoruba 'coward'.

toolovely:
I once mentioned in this forum that many Yorubas that served in the east hardly go back especially those who have or create a means of livelyhood. I have three guys that served in Umuahia and lived in our house, those guys refused going back. Today, they're married to Igbo girls and they are still living there except who later relocated to UK because his parents are based...

But still, some discrimination exist. I was to marry a Yoruba girl, she loved me, but her parents said over their dead bodies would she marry an Igbo man. She tried but the pressure was much on her

ogbeni was he the only one saying rubbish on the thread?
Do you think I wasn't on that side of the divide you are today? I joined this forum during the 2014 campaigns. My old post were a bit hard on Ibos until I travelled out and realized how stupid I have been. When you hear of Nigeria outside, 90% of the time it's either Ibos or yorubas. Almost never Hausa Fulanis.

What unites us is far far far greater than what divides us. And the only thing dividing us today is Tinubu's brand of politics. I never saw this hate between us when Obasanjo was president
