CultureRe: Top Nigeria Tribes That Are Very Fashionable by scholes0(m): 8:48pm On Aug 07, 2018
my List.

1- Yorubas (Fashion trend setters, becoming more and more the skeleton of modern Nigerian recognizeable fashion)
2- Itsekiris (Extremely fashionable, so much so that a good chunk of recognizable Niger-Delta dressing etiquettes of today actually originated there )
3 - Igbos (Can be Fashionable when they really need to be, although there isn't really a very distinct signature stamp yet, but the isi-Agu is coming up)
4 - Edos - (Astounding Royalty when they actually DO dress in pure Edo costumes)
5 - Ijaws - (Mostly an Adaptation of medieval, victorian and exploration/discovery age Western clothing (for the men), otherwise they would have been number 4... seriously Ijaw clothes/dress sense doesn't even look that "Native" to West Africa, but they are indeed fashionable... after all, fashion has no borders)
6 - Fulanis / Fulbe - when they wear pure Fulani attires like their legendary conical hats, baggy pants, extremely slim pants, and their female attires.... are just heavenly with all the decorated embroidery and numerous accessories)
7 - Hausas and other Northerners -

Error corrected... I don't think you need to insult, this is just my on thought, you can re-write urs too.. Thanks
One would expect that anyone writing such things would at least proof check his assertions before posting. If your post had been pushed to frontpage, your article would have been irreversible.
Besides, that was just One example of what is wrong with your writings, not all.

How is "Edo mode of dressing not really that different from that of Igbos" like you postulated? Anyone can tell Edo and Igbo ceremonial dressing apart on any given day. Even casually they don't really dress alike either.

PhonesRe: Google Rolls Out Free Wi-fi In Nigeria's City Of Onitsha & Others by scholes0(m):
investnow2013:
I am particularly interested in Onitsha city Wi-Fi.
Read properly, Onitsha is not on the list for free wireless hotspots, it is only on the list for potential street view expansion program.


These are the cities for free-Wi-Fi

Lagos (of course)
Abuja
Port Harcourt
Ibadan
Kaduna.


While the following three are to be included in street view with the above listed ones.

Benin
Onitsha
Kano
* The rest of Lagos state, meaning Lagos will be 100%

odigbosky:
The visit of HRM the Oba to the Olu is a family visit. It is like a father visiting his son because the Benin stool is the source of the warri stool and at the same time the visit is like that of a brother visiting another brother because by right the Olu is a Prince of Benin and Benin is his home also and he visits often.

ogiame suoooooo
oba gha to kpere
If that is true then the Olu is categorically senior to the Oba of Benin.
Becausr the then crown prince of Oba Olua (Iginuwa) was the one who went to start a kingdom among the Itsekiris.

fero007:
no I just put starch n banga to show they have more similarities with Niger deltans too. If you say Itsekiri is Yoruba, will you then say isoko are urhobo, or efik are Ibibio or Fulani are Hausa.

I still maintain that you talk the Itsekiri people, you can't their culture more than them
They are not Yoruba Yoruba like that, but they are definitely cousins.
CultureRe: Pothole Shaped Like Map Of Nigeria by scholes0(m): 3:12am On Jul 10, 2018
Not really similar.
Only the Northern part bear some similarity.

fero007:
U put tsekiri land under Yoruba map?
If ikaland is added as Igboland, then adding itsekiri territory with “Yorubaland” is very much in order.
Besides, check well, the itsekiri territory has a lighter shade which signifies that it is affiliated to but is not the same as Yorubaland.

Amazing!

3 SW states among top 5, and 4 among the top ten. Kudos to SW. I can see a lot of improvement in SW'ner states and having top the list by region is truly well deserved.

cool
In less than 3 years , a SW state will displace Imo.
Mark the date.

hypocrite,here u are praising Ekiti state buh will later join forces with other sophisticated Ms to crucify Fayose.
Sophisticated M indeed
grin

dont even mention kwara,it belongs to the caliphate.
Why won't I praise Ekiti, Ekiti is 100% Yoruba and that is what matters to me.
Kwara is also 80% Yoruba. Again all that matters to me. Who cares if APC or PDP, Fayose or Langbodo is in charge? undecided

stop your Amebo and go look for ways to revive the declining numbers from Enugu and the abbysmal performance of Ebonyi.

The problems of most Nigerian youth is that majority of them have very very poor analytical skills.
It is on full display all over this thread, smh. Our Educational system is in shambles.
Abagworo was the only Igbo person in the entire thread that stated this exactly as it is in reality.
EducationRe: Top 10 States With Most Applied Candidates For 2018 UTME by scholes0(m):
It is as clear as day that Yorubas are leading this statistic and are getting more youth into high institutions.

Kudos to Ekiti and Kwara states- I am bot surprised one bit though, especially about Ekiti, one of the least populations but beating more than half other states in Nigeria. Those shouting Imo , lol what is the population of Imo compared to Osun?

Kwara and Ekiti even beat Rivers, lol.
Rivers Indigenes must be quite few, just like Lagos indigenes. Rivers is filled with many impostors from the South East claiming indigenes..lol
