Aisha lemu

Aisha Lemu that don't even have ordinary diploma certificate? I have delivered speech with her in Kano and she is illiterate. Though she's beautiful. Her elder sister published a lot of Islamic religious knowledge text books for secondary school. Let her go and do that too. Not qualified to be in the literary circles...

Awori are not Yorubanza
Ijebu's have clearly stated they are lot Yorubanzas
Kwara people are of fulani blood with Yorubanza names, they are proud fulani
Ilaje people are not Yorubanzas
There are no Yorubanzas in places like Kogi, Niger states.

any time I come open nairaland, it has always been ethic war, we as a country d'nt really love our self's and we expect others to love us... our neighbors and far away neighbors have always seen the hate we have for our self that why they are always quickto write us off.

no country that d'nt have criminals but the way we do things hear has brought us to the four front of everything evil.

Nigeria is a forceful marriage were divorce is not allowed, and the people are like Esau and Jacob, jaws and Christain and Muslims in the olden days.

See ya miserable life! Your mates are working towards accomplishing greater feats in life and you're here chasing shadows against a tribe that surpasses your entire generations.

Don't worry, continue trolling Igbos online until your parents will sell off their inherited landed property to a young Igbo business man and relocate to their farm house in the outskirts of Ogun state, Agbara,Then reality will dawn on you. OPONU..

Etche (Echie) is one of the Igbo Sub groups in Rivers State, Nigeria. They are found in the Rivers, Abia and Imo. Etche people are Igbo speaking clan in South South region and they are popularly known as (Ndi Echie) which means Etche people. They still maintain their Igbo cultures and heritage.

If you like repost this fake nonsense 1 million times, it won't change the fact that Etche just like Asa/Oyigbo where I come from in Rivers state, are proudly Igbos. You've tried the "Anioma are not Igbos" angle before, but thanks to illustrious Anioma figures like Madam Ngozi Okonjo Iweala, Tony Elumelu and many others who have disgraced your crude agendas by proudly blaring out their Igbo horns.

Dirty Yorubanza bastard, what do you mentally ill idiots gain from wanting to cause division among the Igbo nation? do you see us giving a care in the world when Ijebu, Ilaje, Kwara, Awori people etc deny their accursed yorubastard genes?

Why not post the direct Twitter link or screenshot of Ijeoma Oluo denying she's Igbo, you think you can scam us with some useless fake conversation your dumb ass stumbled across on God knows where? what a pathetic tribe, Afonja gbakwa Okwu angry
I didn't even finish reading your endless, heartbroken, dejected rant, Osu IPOB boy. Ijeoma Oluo says she's Etche, not Igbo, lol. That's all that matters. You don't like it? Go take it up with her on Twitter. Her handle is @IjeomaOluo. Lmao!

Fact is Nigerians are one of the most successful people all over the world, 70% of black doctors in America are Nigerians, that's a fact, look it up.

Thumbs up to every Nigerian out there, making us proud.

Congrats to this beautiful Nigerian born American giving us the opportunity to be proud of her by allowing herself to be identified as a Nigerian American.
There are so many in America who don't identify with their roots. They prefer the blanket "African American"...
