African Americans make up a large proportionate of prisoners in the entire U.S. This is common knowledge. So, are you trying to say that Igbos are more prone to go to jail? Go away with your nonsense

How about your crazy Yoruba brethren in Brazil? Crime is high in that country, because your cousins do not know how to control themselves. Or could there be other reason why crime is high and not because they are Yoruba?

DNA is not a determinant if you will go to jail you fool.

Since the Yoruba slaves in Brazil, Jamaica and Trinidad are not in jail although they walk around aimlessly like a sheep without a shepherd.

Seriously, can you stop

There are Igbos everywhere!

Money might not buy love, but it will buy a six-figure Maybach for the teenaged son of a hip-hop superstar.

Thanks to his dad, hip-hop mogul and businessman Sean "Diddy" Combs, now Justin Dior Combs is the proud owner of a $360,000 luxury sedan.

His dad didn't just throw Justin a huge, star-studded birthday party at the Manhattan club M2 Ultralounge on Saturday night. He also presented the youngster with a brand-new Maybach, wrapped in a red bow and parked outside the club.

The party, which was filmed for the MTV reality show "My Super Sweet Sixteen," featured performances by rappers Fabolous, Lil' Kim, and Jim Jones. Cast members from "Jersey Shore" were also there to wish Justin a happy birthday.

In addition to the wheels, Diddy gave his son a check for $10,000, which Justin immediately donated to Wyclef Jean's charity Yele Haiti. And since the teenager doesn't yet drive or have a license, Diddy provided him with a uniformed driver to escort the teen and his friends around Manhattan.

Surprisingly, Justin doesn't seem spoiled by life as the son of a mega-star. At the party, he told UsMagazine.com "Words can't even describe how I feel.'' Justin, whose mother is Diddy's ex Misa Hylton-Brim, said ''I'm so blessed and thankful for all of this."

For the non-autophiles: A Maybach is the ultra-luxury automobile line owned and operated by Daimler, which is also the parent company for Mercedes-Benz. Maybach is a favorite brand in the hip-hop celebrity community. Russell Simmons and Jay-Z are among the famous Maybach owners, and the Simmons-founded Def Jam record label had a release called ''Maybach Music.''

Justin's birthday cake Johnny Nunez/WireImage Even with new wheels, no birthday is complete without a cake. Diddy made sure his son was not disappointed.

I may already be doing it. I know that nairaland is not necessarily your average naija crowd, but I want to learn and teach here first before moving on. I'm already getting to the end of my "missionary journey" on nairaland.

The implied meaning of that comment is that you are feeling inferior to the Igbo. I never said we are special. All I said was that we aren't afraid of challenges, especially in the context of a one Nigeria. Personally I believe we have already survived the greatest challenge possible in a country like Nigeria. We have learned from that challenge and are continuing to invest in our survival. We do so fearlessly and diligently. Nothing special about that.

Funny, i just did a google search on dating a Nigerian man and all i got were girls from diff parts of d world heaping insults for the cheats that they consider 9ja men to be.

Nigerian politics  = 0
President            =0
economy        = 0
International positive recognition = 0
even football is shaking now,
9 ja men too have added their own to the list of our disgrace worldwide

I can see that is what all of you are so worked up about; like the one Nigeria you know today (which made you kings after a monumental treachery and back stabbing) will remain the same 100 years to come. The mistake some of you make is to assume that the Igbo need Nigeria to disintegrate before they can survive. The beauty of being an Igboman is that we aren't afraid of any challenges. We survived when your fathers thought we would die. I cannot wait for the Nigeria of 100 years from now!

This is random but, obviously by your comment you believe it takes a lot to make Michelle Obama Hot, how did you come across this conclusion, because you know, I sort of got where you were coming from with the comment but it didn't sound quite as stable as it would have if you had mentioned someone who we all knew found it difficult to get Hot.

I sound like a loser but it was just bugging me, sorry

Thats my point; what I meant by my last phrase was that I am yet to accept or discount that Africa is in a mess today because Africans sold Africans. The East African chap claims that Africa is cursed.

I don't get that; most tribes sold their people even though they mostly claimed that they sold captives from tribal wars. I went to school with one chap from East Africa, and he claims that Africa is suffering because of the actions of Africans in selling their brothers into slavery. I have thought long and hard about it; I am yet to accept or discount it.
