But when did yorubas start caring about Igbos?

Who knows or cares. Does someone have to love you to tell you the truth. 2+2=4 no matter the source.

Help me ask the skull miner. He's not even concerned with the fact that Ibadan and Osogbo have been over run by ritualists, cities where more than half the population are into witchcraft and ritualism, yet they bother about a people who's system of society is better than anything they can ever dream of. Pathetic souls!!!

True talk.
Our ancestors knew the stigma associated with slavery, that is why they rather die than allow themselves to be white slaves. E.g the Igbo landing in Virginia where they all commited suicide.
An Igbo man will rather die than allow himself to be enslaved because they believe that once you are enslaved, your soul and generation become enslaved. The same spirit is what you see in IPOB members, they see Nigeria as a slave camp so they rather die than be part of it

Seriously, ibo people need to stop this nonsense and archaic practise immediately. If they can be treating their own fellow ibos like this, then what hope is there for a complete non-ibo stranger in their midst?

Those ibos being discriminated against had better leave such backward society and go elsewhere else they will hardly progress. Could this senseless discrimination be the reason why their society is still the most homogeneous and seen as the most hostile towards strangers in Southern Nigeria? One hardly hears of strangers progressing in iboland the way ibos are allowed to in other societies.

All you Ibo people still practicing this nonsense should stop it. It's not fair!!! angry angry Tufiakwa.

OSU system have been there for a while, but with the current era those stuffs will fade out. Its something that non-igbo people would never understand.

OSU is the direct opposite of Freedom which every igboman believe in. OSU people are people that surrendered their freedom to diety which igbo did not find funny then.

Ume people are people that committed high crimes which goes strong igbo law i.e. Abomination.

Like murder, incest, bearing false witness.

I believe Christianity, modernisation and strong will of igbo people will send those stuffs to oblivion

Why did they not just disown their respective family and move to the South West Of Nigeria to live freely and in peace?

Its what millions of Igbos have had to do to escape the clannish, discriminatory and intolerantly backward region they come from.

Imagine, in this day and age, a female eldest child is forbidden from inheriting the estate of her father in ala Igbo? Yet Igbos are in everyone business instead of looking to tackle the retrogressive and backward ways that is the norm in their backyard.

Lol. "I am ashamed of the backward ways of my people" would suffice instead of the silly excuses you produce above to validate what is not seen in most regions of Nigeria.

Ibos can't relate with what black Americans are going through with respect to police brutality because they share Donald Trump's racist ideology (they are Donald Trump's biggest sympathisers outside America's redneck belt). Now one can understand why that is so. It's because many of them grew up being taught to look down on their fellow ibos as Osu sub-humans. Smh.
Will you shut up. Must you bring tribal bigotry into this thread ehn, you just went on to blab "ibos" like all of us believe in this trash.

Foolish people, when the great Igbo race warned the rest of the country that Buhari is an offspring of illegal immigrants with nothing upstirs they did not heed the advise and went ahead to vote the animal thinking they will subdue us.

They failed and now they are feeling the heat, we the great Igbo race kept progressing because we can't pay a price of what we are not part of, this is just the begining..by the time this foolish man from Futa jalon is done with his fellow Janjeweed and Ewudu muslims, their brain will be reseted and they will sell their ancestral lands to us for a living.

You can already see the igbos coming out to defend this despicable practice.

One thing their e-warriors don't know is that they more they push back and keep on supporting evil in their comunities, the more external hate for them will keep on growing.

I just hope they give them their promised land where they can continue practicing their noble culture in peace. Imagine supporting segregation and slavery in the 21st century. God forbid.
