Which of the Teni's mother is Igbo?


Please I'm asking for a friend

poiunt:
But indirectly created a tribal loyalty.

Between he mentioned ozo tribe by saying he is igbo and that igbos should rally for him.

Isn't that sowing tribal discord

Tribal discord in what sense?

He called out to Imolite to show support to Ozo who is also from Imo
He didn't support Erica who is Igbo,nor Tochi

It was specifically the 2 Imo boys,Ozo and Prince

Or you will say he's still showing discord among Igbo states again??

Iamgrey5:
Bring it out


I want to see those that called igbo Helites batards on this thread?

I'm not in for such assignment

We all know the kind of insults iCONS hurled at Erica,Elites, her family, her unborn generations and more

So look out for the receipts yourself
You can find it here,Twitter and on facebook

poiunt:
Say anything, it is up to you. Even the yorubas do not understand the word

Why are you guys so sensitive?

Which yorubas do not understand the word?

Speak only for yourself

Most yoruba feel offended when they hear it or when they hear languages they don't understand..they feel it's an insult which is kind of a jab

It's a tribal thing tho

Koolface4u:
If Teni had made that statement nd wasn't rooting for Laycon it would have been shrugged off without any fuss.

But because star boy is involved agenda must agend. Bitter clowns!

Why will she call Erica "Omo Igbo"in the first place...it obviously had to be about Laycon

Slim case released a sing titled Erica...I listened to it and he spoke about most of the housemates without being tribalistic in any form

poiunt:
But the cubana guy did similar stunt, he and the interviewer said about lets igbo people vote for ozo.

Did he mention another housemates tribe?

Please answer this question

poiunt:
But dstv listed down their state of origin.

If they say you are omo yoruba or omo igbo, is that an abuse?

Say it English instead
Call me Igbo instead of "Omo Igbo"

Iamgrey5:
So they called her igbo supporters bastards

Yes and more than that

poiunt:
When is omo igbo an abuse, isn't erica igbo again

That means we should say
When is Ofe Mmanu an abuse,don't you guys cook soup with excess palm oil again??

Picture a tout at Oshodi under bridge calling a lady "Omo Igbo!" "Omo Igbo!!" "Omo Igbo!!!"

So you want her to look back and smile right?

You can't compare "Omo Igbo" with "Omo Yoruba" in the first place
"Omo" is a word meant for the yoruba,so it's harmless when used for themselves

My friends can call me such,but It will get to a point where my friends will call me such and I won't find it funny again(that's if they use it in another context)

seunmsg:
The idiot that started dragging Teni is a frustrated Erica supporter and a chronic Laycon hater. Some of these guys can’t just stomach the fact that Laycon is about to win the show. They have to throw everything at him to discredit his victory. I am happy so many reasonable people who read in between the lines quickly attacked and called him out for the bigot that he is.

BBN is a beautiful show and we must resist all attempt by some frustrated few to use tribalism to discredit the show. Below are some of his previous attacks on Laycon.

Why didn't you say this when Cubana spoke
Why didn't you call your fellow iCONS to not use tribalism to discredit the show



Gosh!!

You guys are so hypocritical

Iamgrey5:
Who are my mates

You know me from somewhere

Please bring where I ever called any tribe bastards out and let everyone be the judge.

I meant your fellow iCONS

Or will you claim to not have seen them dish out insults to other housemates mainly Erica

majamajic:
If I may ask u which celebrity body shamed any housemate ?

Nigerians can never call a spade spade , una dey twist it .

I tried to reason with her, but she no wan gree

Bibidear:
Yeah,it is right to insult people ...body shaming is better than tribalism....I get you now

I said what I said and I made my stand clear and if you choose to see it the other way.... it's fine by me


Peace

Bibidear:
Same way Elites didn't see the wrong in what UTI said...I mentioned what Teni said is wrong ...cos I have friends from all tribes.....why won't you remember....so don't come here saying stuffs you don't know....I am angry at what UTI said,same way I am angry with what Teni said

K

Iamgrey5:
I hope you can see people who are annoyed that someone called their so called Fav "Omo igbo"

Calling Lacyon's Yoruba supporters bastards for supporting Laycon

Majority of them hating on Laycon are closet tribal bigots

See how happy you are asif you or your team mate don't insult people on a daily basis

Hypocrisy at its peak

Firstly, "inyamiri" isn't a Yoruba word..

If you were called "Ife mmanu" by the aba people, it would have been debasing. Calling you a Yoruba boy isn't their way of insulting your tribe, ofe mmanu or igbati igbati is..

As for the Calabar people ,when you are called an "Ekaete" or "Akpan" that's when it becomes debasing because it connotes an underlying house help insult.


But if those words were used for the right reasons, ofcourse they wouldn't be an insult..


Till date Hausa people still find "Aboki" as an insult.. Whereas Aboki isn't really an insulting word.

Do you know something?
Some of these iCONS knows that is wrong,but they deliberately chose to ignore the truth

Teni could have passed across the message by calling her name,Erica but why use "Omo Igbo"

Koolface4u:
Teni called Erica “omo Igbo,” you are getting angry because this is Twitter.

Offline, people call people “Omo igbo” “Aboki” “Alhaja” "Omo Yoruba" etc and we all live in peace but once it’s Twitter, you all be moving mad and stupidly sensitive because you have 10mb data. Oshisco.


#AllvoteforLaycon

You said Offline....

The 3 things here to pin point is
Celebrity
Offline
Context

If a random being calls Erica Omo Igbo,we will ignore,but a celebrity is a No No

She can call her that in her house and not doing it online

Omo Igbo is not totally wrong,but the context in which it was used is wrong

Bibidear:
So don't come here to say no Igbo celebrity hasn't insulted Laycon

Did they mention his tribe?
Why is is so hard for you to get my point??


Celebrities all over Nigeria has insulted the housemates,but none made mention of their tribe

Bibidear:
Same way some people didn't see anything wrong with what Cubana and UTI did

Out of 100 iCONS, only 5 saw the wrong in that video

You can't compare Cubana and Uti's own with what Teni did...Cubana didn't make any reference to any other housemates tribe..I saw it as a show of sense of belonging


I can't remember what Uti did tho.


Imagine a yoruba OAP calling Erica "Omo Igbo"
It's totally wrong....no 2 ways about it

Bibidear:
Didn't UTI do that.....or you are tryna ignore him

He did

Didn't you all call him out?
Did you drag him?
Didn't you call him a tribalist?

Fehm:
That's my problem with these bastardss supporting Laycon. They'll never admit or be objective on anything.

They'll hail anyone that drags Erica's mum, but will turn to motivational speakers when the walking corpse they are supporting is dragged.

They'll will ignore any tribalistic jabs to Erica, but will start dropping epistle against tribalism and of what South Africans are saying about tribalism in Nigeria when the disease carrier is dragged.

I remember see some foolish miscreants here dropping epistles dragging Cubanna for supporting Ozo without mentioning any tribe in the process, but none of those fools have said anything about what Teni did.

The most foolish ones are even the Igbos in their midst condemning Cubana and hyping Teni.

As a pure Igbo breed,I'm ashamed of my folks supporting what Teni did... it's such a shame that in a bid to support your fave,you now get to lose your sense of reasoning



Imagine if Cubana said
"Imolites,it's time to make our own win again making it 3 straight wins...let's go all out for Ozo and show the "Yorubas" that we are born winners"

Just imagine what iCONS would have said or done to him

Bibidear:
When I watched the video,I didn't like what Teni said even as a Yoruba girl.... but the issue I have is why bringing it up now...why didn't they bring it up when she said it....Teni really bleeped up....meanwhile VOTE Laycon to 32052..

Bringing up the video now is wrong and I can't seem to comprehend why they did such

And also,thank you for saying the truth
The video is wrong...but your teammates claim nothing is wrong with it

Lazyyouth4u:
Any nigga wey dey serious about winning Big Brother Naija should sit down and analyze Efe and Laycon well well. Make sure you look like them o with that same hairstyle and follow their strategy to the T. Plus be an aspiring rapper and you are guaranteed to get the blessing of the streets. You will be a god in human body that does no wrong in the eyes of the streets.

Just remember the streets when you win the money o or streets go abandon you sharply as streets abandon Efe

Honourable minister, please off your mic

This gospel truth won't sit well with some fanbase

Jadentica:
As a detribalised Nigerian from Itsekeri/urhobo, Delta State.


I find that statement by Teni, quite tribalistic and demeaning..

Growing up, I lived in Lagos before my parents relocated to Abuja with the entire family. I can categorically tell y'all that Yorubas call Igbos "omo Igbo" as a way of debasing them. Just like Hausa call Igbos "inyamiri dodo". As also a way of debasing them...


Well I just hate tribalistic people, be you who...

Exactly....

It's a shame how iCONS refuse to see the wrong in it
They will see black and call it white


Until an Igbo celebrity comes out to support Erica and calls Laycon one debasing name,then they will arise in thousands while lifting up the placard of "say no to tribalism"

Lazyyouth4u:
How can a normal human wake up and start to dey abuse person because of a game of housemates wey no know am? The height of idleness. And it just shows how our leaders have failed us.

See Lazy youths forming movements on top housemates when many of them never see food wey dem go chop tomorrow. God punish who do Naija this thing. Cursed generation!

Bbnaija should just do and pass

The toxicity this year is more than enough to last for 2 years
Both on Facebook, Twitter,Nairaland and Instagram

Fehm:
Now someone is getting the point.

If we look at this issue from a neutral perspective, we will clearly see Teni's fault...but it was unintentional though

iCONS should learn to speak the truth and condemn wrongs ..... it's not until it gets to you before you know it's wrong
They called Cubana tribalistic for wanting his Imo state brother to win thereby making it 3 Imo straight wins..

But ignored Teni calling Erica "Omo Igbo" in that context

On this thread if you make any post and put any tribe,they are so quick to call you tribalistic ....but now they are all tryna overlook it






I repeat,
Omo Igbo is not an insult
Omo Igbo is not an insult
Omo Igbo is not an insult

But the context in which it was used,is wrong

But jokes apart, imagine this scenario

As an Aunt(Teni),your nephew(Laycon) and your neighbour's daughter(Erica) were caught fighting..

You now called them and start scolding your nephew and instead of you to call Erica's name,you called her "omo igbo"....it's wrong na
She can call insult Laycon as far as the video is in favour if him,there's no issue there

She can call her omo igbo in a different scenario but not when Laycon is involved,knowing fully well the state of the two fanbase

As a celebrity, your words hold more weight than we viewers....so comparing the term used by viewers "agbero" for Laycon with celebrity calling Erica "omo Igbo" in that context is quite tribalistic
