OVB123:
Come and see your brothers and sister selling agbo in onitsha.

OVB123:
You shouldn't have mention osun state at all, that state is out of civilization.

BluntTheApostle:
That is my point.

A man claiming to be a woman is still a man.

BluntTheApostle:
So, how is tribe different from gender?

Are tribe and gender not demographies?

Are they not different forms of identities?

BluntTheApostle:
They want their own identity doesn't mean they are not Yoruba.

A poor man is still a poor even if he doesn't want the identity of a poor man.

Bobrisky is a man even though he wants the identity of a woman.

Sammy07:
Bro OPC dey warri.
And you should understand that anywhere OPC dey, nah Yoruba land.

Their language is 80% Yoruba, 20% Edo and urhobo

But their culture is benin influenced

obynzo:
Oga stop being foolish i will say it again. How can the Igala defeat Igbos or colonize igbos when the Aro confederacy was running things since 17th century. I repeat stop being foolish in your attempt to spread lies.

Sammy07:
Yorubas dey warri.

They are Itshekiri.

Sammy07:

A Nigerian chess champion has been stranded in Cote d'Ivoire after representing Nigeria in a competition

After representing Nigeria at the competition in Sierra Leone, Adu attempted to get to Lagos via road trip but has been stuck in Cote d'Ivoire

After travelling from his base in the United States to represent Nigerian at the Zone 4.2 Individual Chess Championship in Freetown, Sierra Leone which ended on Friday, March 20, 2020, Oladapo Adu has been unable to return home and has now been stranded for more than 12 weeks in Cote d’Ivoire due to the coronavirus lockdown that led to restrictions in traveling.

After the competition was cut short in Freetown, Adu had attempted a road trip back to Lagos but was turned back at the Cote d'Ivoire-Ghana border by Ghanaian police.

The chess player said he is broken over the situation as he is currently staying strangers.

"I'm just waiting for borders to open on July 15th and then head back to Nigeria," Adu told Pulse.

For him, this has been a traumatising and demoralising experience.

Adu said he has had to move from one accommodation to another while in Cote d'Ivoire. He eventually got help from a pastor in Lagos who connected him with where he is currently staying.

He explained that the competition went on during the early stages of the coronavirus in Africa but was quickly ended on March 20 when the situation got more serious.

Even more disappointing for Adu, he has been unable to get any sort of help from the Nigerian government and the Chess Federation.

Adu was selected alongside four players to represent Nigeria at the competition and he as usual funded himself.

"They select people but they always ask you to fund yourself which we've done," he said.

Adu has won the competition back to back in 2015 and 2016 and was looking towards a third win in the yearly tournament which serves as a qualifying tournament for the Chess World Cup.

Oladapo Adu is a two-time winner of the said competition.

The other players who represented Nigeria were lucky to leave with other airlines before the lockdown but his Air Cote d'Ivoire flight was cancelled.

"I actually bought my flight ticket in the US before coming to Nigeria," he said.

“I left the USA to Freetown to represent Nigeria and this is all I get for it - nothing," he said.

He sought help from the Nigerian embassy and has been in touch with the Nigerian Chess Federation but has been unable to get any help.

The President of the Nigerian Chess Federation, Adeyemi Lekan, however, told BBC Sport Africa that he has been in constant communication with Adu and claimed to have reached an agreement with the Ivory Coast Chess Federation president to provide a monthly sum of N91,000 ($200) to Adu for his upkeep although Adu also insisted he has not received such money.

The Ivory Coast Chess Federation President, however, also confirmed in the report that he has not reached any of such agreement but said he gave the sum of N78, 000 ($172) to a chess player that hosted Adu at his home.

Uchasa:
Am through with you,go and do your homework then be sober.lmao.
Igbo kwenu!!!!
Anu Meka!!!!!
Igbo amaka!!!!
Igbo Kwuezuonu!!!

knowledgeable:
I beg to disagree completely for the obvious reasons.

You are in a race with somebody, and you had the advantage of 5 miles ahead ( as a result of civil war). At the end of the race, it looks like a draw, but the one 5 miles ahead is beating his chest that he won.

Yoruba jealousy towards the Igbos is the prime factor that have held Nigeria down & if you disagree, try to separate or seek Oduduwa republic.( Everything from Boko Haram, fulani herdsmen, northern political domination, backwardness, poverty, tribalism and etc, all have their roots from it) Take all the Igbo's properties in Lagos join too.
....... but your weak ass is incapable!!...

Blaizeless:
My brother am not a yoruba man neither am I ibo man. D fact is in Nigeria 2day, the Yorubas are the biggest thieves, they thought the housas how to steal and curruption is highly embedded in thier blood stream.

Plz dont throw stones

obynzo:
Bring your historical evidence and from proven sources too, because i see you like to spread falsehood on nairaland. There has never been a time that Igala colonized igbo even the colonialist found the igbo too stubborn to colonize is it the igala that will now colonize us?

Uchasa:
Lol���..I can't laugh anymore,my brother go and visit OFP page on Facebook (one of the biggest Fuding Abroad Programs in Nigeria),but before you go there,take a calm pill,because you may die of surprise at how Igbos continue to dominate the Yorubas.
The ratio is Igbos 3:1 Yoruba.
Even your Yoruba brothers who flood the page are always overwhelmed at the way Nyamiris get thousands of dollars to fund their studies abroad,due to wonderful results
My brother if you still think Yorubas dominate education,then you are either suffering from dementia or you're living in delusion.

bigfish3k:
so obiano is now an igala name
Have you ever seen any igala bearing an igbo name before?
Anyway given your tribe. I am not surprised, you people twist the truth

Emir is ceremonial yet OPC fought tooth and nail to collect it back during OBJ without success

Ceremonial yet he is the everlasting and Supreme chairman of traditional rulers in kwara - a foreign land to him

You have spare lands to give out but always cry that igbos have bought the whole Lagos

You didn't give fulani that land, they conquered you with force killed many and collected it till date. There was no negotiations

We have igbos in all our border state including kogi , it was a ploy by you people to divide igbos because of the fear of losing us because we are indispensable
There is no igala emir in Igboland as it is in the conquered ilorin. So I don't need to search any history books, the presence of the emir is the everlasting sign of a conquered people

Blind people, have you ever seen moon in your life?
But don't worry the insightful fulanis that ate apple at the garden of eden will tell you about it.

Better look for your own eve to give you people apple so that you can start seeing like the rest of the world and sight moon

I repeat, No Igboland is in fulani hand

Bandale:
The more you quote that robot the more you give his stupidity credence.
He is only pained that Igbos have conquered them in Business and now conquering them in Education, if we take hold of the political scene that's means its over for Yorubas, that's why they are in unimaginable pain....

Uchasa:
The last time I checked my dictionary, "dillusional" was "delusional"
Take it or leave it,more Igbos have dominated National Exams than the Yorubas,go to scholarship sites and pages on Facebook,and see how Igbos dominate it.
Yorubas are also there,but slightly behind Igbos.
Point of correction,the best Igbo students school in the East,most Igbo academicians today schooled at UNN not UNILAG or UI..If tommorow comes and a Yoruba guy does this abroad,follow me up,I'll praise the Yoruba tribe,every tribe is gifted,but some are exceptional.

Uchasa:
Woow it seems your browser is outdated because the best WAEC candidate last year was Stephany Ugboaja from Imo state but schooled in Rivers State,in 2017,the best WAEC candidate was Ezeani from Anambra state but schooled at Faith Academy,Ota
Last year,the top two in JAMB were schooling in Abia,while one was from Imo state.
Take it or leave it,editing wouldn't be a breach to the fact that the Igbos are really dominating National Exams and academics in general

Uchasa:
Woow clap for yourself my brother,It's obvious your blinded by tribalism,I'm not surprised that it pains you to note that the people you call Igbos dominate you in every National exam while you go about in your slums and brown roofs claiming most educated tribe in Nigeria.
My brother if the top two cheated,then the others "double cheated",
I still want to add this to your skull
(1) There we're were three Igbos on the list,2 from Anambra,1 from Delta
(2)Instead of you to praise people doing well, you're blinded by hate in your house ranting nonsense meanwhile every year the best in WAEC and JAMB comes from the tribe you don't like.
(3)No one cares about the others,everybody is talking about the best in JAMB,Agnes from Anambra state who got 99 in Almighty Mathematics,and who was awarded with 16 million naira which you haven't tasted before
My brother open your eyes to the truth
