@OP.

Lol. Is this not what Igbos have always done to be hated and derided universally? I.e arrogate messianic greatness upon themselves while attempting to put others down as inferior?

The sad truth for Igbos is that the reality of all our lives makes a mockery of Igbo man's delusions of grandeur.

Take 8 from the list OP collated. Is it not obvious that what OP ascribes to the Igbos is best typified by Yorubas in the real and verified history of Nigeria?

When have Igbos ever been known to be champions of social justice, freedom of speech or sacrificial fights against tyranny and opression for the OP to be attempting this blatant and revisionist daylight robbery here? The whole list is similar. Bathing Igbos in glory they cannot claim and tagging other with fraudulent character assassination reality of Nigeria more than proves they don't deserve.

Most Igbos will go to their graves lying and hating in disgraceful ways. Very shameful. Republicans and democrats my azz.

If Nigeria Were America, Igbos will Be Republicans, while Yoruba and Hausa-Fulani will Be Democrats.

Igbos - Republican and conservative in nature
1. Support less government influence and involvement in their lives. Believe in doing for themselves!
2. Believe in less taxes so that businesses can create wealth and hire more people.
3. Believe in capitalism and individual wealth creation. When they own business, think of Limited Liability Company. Don't believe in PLC/corporations.
4. Believe in traditional family values as written in the bible. Have very organized/intact families and less divorce rate!
5. Believe in gun ownership to defend themselves
6. Believe in less social programs
7. Believe in savings and less borrowing
8. Believe in fundamental human rights: freedom of speech and right to assemble including protest.
9. Believe in fairness and meritocracy: the best of the best should be at the top
10. They tell it like it's and straightforward with their intentions.
11. Have a high chance of revolting against authority

Yoruba and Hausa-Fulani - Democrat and liberal in nature. Though Hausa-Fulani are only liberal when it comes to fiscal policies, not social like Yoruba.
1. Support more government influence and involvement in their lives. Government doing almost everything for them is considered normal.
2. Believe in more taxes to redistribute wealth, which hurts businesses.
3. Believe in socialism and wealth sharing. When they own business, think of corporations/PLC or public company
4. Believe in progressive family values. Have high divorce rate, family breakdowns and abandoned children.
5. Believe in less gun ownership
6. Believe in government involvement social programs
7. Believe in borrowing and less savings.
8. Believe in socialist policies of curtailing fundamental human rights: censoring freedom of speech and against right to assemble including protest.
9. Believe in quota system and favoritism; believe in carrying everyone along irrespective of individual excellence.
10. They are not straightforward with their intentions; they use deceit and subterfuge to advance their agenda.
11. Unlikely to revolt against authority

Child abandonement is a'tually common between the east and the north the igbos let there child go and hustle in Lagos while the North let there sons go for almajiri

[quote author=kovic20 post=90680648

[s]]If Nigeria Were America, Igbos will Be Republicans, while Yoruba and Hausa-Fulani will Be Democrats. [/s]

I have just decided to counter your dumb assertions point by point. I don't know if this is worth my time, but I guess a future internet user will see this and appreciate it.

[s]Igbos - Republican and conservative in nature
1. Support less government influence and involvement in their lives. Believe in doing for themselves![/s]

That's a big lie.

Otherwise Igbos won't be crying of marginalization.

Igbos have been part of the ruling government since 1960. The only time they were in opposition has been from 2015 when they lost.

And since then, they been crying marginalization by government.

[s]2. Believe in less taxes so that businesses can create wealth and hire more people. [/s]

Another lie. I believe that Igbo governors collect taxes just like every other state government and also share from federal allocation every month part of which comes from taxations.

[s]3. Believe in capitalism and individual wealth creation. When they own business, think of Limited Liability Company. Don't believe in PLC/corporations.[/s]

Another baseless information. I believe most Igbos run a small enterprise, mostly shops where they sell their goods. That's hardly something you could call a corporation or form into a public liability company. So it's not like they have a choice.

[s]4. Believe in traditional family values as written in the bible. Have very organized/intact families and less divorce rate![/s]

This right here is laughable. I won't dignify it with a response.

[s]5. Believe in gun ownership to defend themselves[/s]

Another laughable point. You believe in gun ownership yet are crying that God should save you from Fulanis herdsmen. Maybe you don't know that owning a gun in Nigeria is legal as long as you have a permit for it. Now ask yourself, how many Igbos do you know that own a gun?

~~6. Believe in less social programs~~

Another lie. Vice President Yemi Osinbajo was on hand to share TraderMoni to Igbos in the east. Igbos have benefited from all the social programs rolled out by successive governments in Nigeria.

~~7. Believe in savings and less borrowing~~

Are you their accountant?

[s]8. Believe in fundamental human rights: freedom of speech and right to assemble including protest. [/s]

Yet IPOB attacks Igbos who open their shops on the sit-at-home day ordered by Kanu? Yet, Igbos constantly lampoon Yorubas for having moslems in their midst. Or maybe freedom of religion isn't part of your democratic principles.

Most importantly, your Osu caste system in Igboland is so disheartening. I won't mention what you do to widows who just lost their husbands or the fact that females aren't allowed to inherit in Igboland.

[s]9. Believe in fairness and meritocracy: the best of the best should be at the top[/s]

Nnamdi Azikiwe surely didn't believe that did he?

Also, we know that Stella Oduah appointed only Igbos when she was minister of Aviation.

[s]10. They tell it like it's and straightforward with their intentions.[/s]

No, you don't. Ojukwu starved his people so that he could show the world pictures of starving kids and thereby generate sympathy in the hope that the world will support the Biafran agitation.

I won't even mention the fantastic lies of Nnamdi Kanu. The lies of your inept and very corrupt governors who have turned Igboland into a cesspit.

[s]11. Have a high chance of revolting against authority[/s]

A big lie. You don't revolt. You only wail.

How many Igbos are known worldwide as activists, especially in the fight for the restoration of democracy in Nigeria.

Mention their names here.

[s]Yoruba and Hausa-Fulani - Democrat and liberal in nature. Though Hausa-Fulani are only liberal when it comes to fiscal policies, not social like Yoruba.[/s]

Yorubas are liberal as shown from their high tolerance of other people's beliefs and race. High tolerable people. Same can't be said for the Fulanis who like their Igbo counterpart always seek to "dominate" and usurp other people's territories.

As a matter of fact, only tow ethnic groups in the history of Nigeria has used the word DOMINATE. Fulanis and Igbos.

[s]1. Support more government influence and involvement in their lives. Government doing almost everything for them is considered normal.[/s]

Any proof of this? No. Are you aware of the huge number of start-ups going on in Yorubaland as we speak despite the unfavorable environment?

Do you know that the Yorubas are currently leading in entrepreneurship in Nigeria, creating wealth from in the various economic sectors of the country?

Technology, Entertainment, Agriculture, etc

[s]2. Believe in more taxes to redistribute wealth, which hurts businesses.[/s]

Yes, Yoruba people believe in paying taxes. This has always been the practice even before the advent of the colonial masters.

It isn't something to be despised. That's what most western countries use for the development of their cities.

3. Believe in socialism and wealth sharing. When they own business, think of corporations/PLC or public company

I won't argue with this.

[s]4. Believe in progressive family values. Have high divorce rate, family breakdowns and abandoned children. [/s]

Is that so? We would like to see the research you conducted and your data analysis.

I am sure you know as many Igbos with abandoned kids and broken families than you care to think about.

[s]5. Believe in less gun ownership
6. Believe in government involvement social programs[/s]

[s]7. Believe in borrowing and less savings. [/s]

No proof.

[s]8. Believe in socialist policies of curtailing fundamental human rights: censoring freedom of speech and against right to assemble including protest.[/s]

No proof. You are just contradicting yourself. Or maybe you don't understand the words you are using yourself.

At the top there, you said Yorubas are liberal. Now, you are saying this. Do you know the meaning of liberal?

[s]9. Believe in quota system and favoritism; believe in carrying everyone along irrespective of individual excellence. [/s]

You may not know this but the term quota system is peculiar mainly to the Nigerian system. Go learn why and how that phrase entered the Nigerian lexicon. It is NOT a Yoruba thing. Yoruba governors are well known for employing non-indigenes into their cabinets, even more than their counterparts in other states.

[s]10. They are not straightforward with their intentions; they use deceit and subterfuge to advance their agenda.[/s]

Don't wail dear. It's called diplomacy. And the Yorubas are a master of diplomacy. Meanwhile, we all have heard of how propaganda was used by Radio Biafra during the civil war. Guess who headed that particular unit. Your beloved Chinua Achebe.

~~11. Unlikely to revolt against authority~~

I couldn't help but laugh at this.

Ask your elders which ethnicity has been in the forefront of the fight against human rights abuses in Nigeria.

Which ethnicity led the fight for the restoration of democracy in Nigeria.

Make a list of the civil rights activists in Nigeria and see for yourself.

'Nuff said!
