The 12 Top Reasons Why Igbos And Yorubas Should Not Marry by OuchDaddy(m): 11:24pm On May 27, 2013
Whether you are aware of it or not, many inter-tribal
relationships have died an untimely death because of
the tribal differences between the couple. Parents,
elders, and friends have rained down fire and brimstone
to see to it that this sacrilegious union does not get to
the altar. The strong couples come out of it beaten,
bruised, but alive nonetheless. The weaker ones — well,
they inspire me to write this.

The most popular union seems to be the one between
the Igbos and the Yorubas. With this in mind, I have
compiled a list, specially for everyone who is currently
in such a relationship. If you have been pressured into
breaking up because of tribal differences and you have
no idea why you should – or if you sh ould, then I am
here to help you make that decision. Please read,
digest, and understand the lists below.

Reasons Igbos Should NOT Marry Yorubas:
1. They’re dirty.
2. All they know how to do is party.
3. They eat too much oil.
4. Their women flirt/sleep around too much.
5. Their men will ALWAYS cheat with a Yoruba woman.
6. They are loud and obnoxious. You can hear them
from a mile away.
7. They are wild. They are the real “Akata” people.
8. They are Nigeria’s problem.
9. They don’t understand the Igbo culture.
10. They do too much juju.
11. They betrayed the Igbos during the Biafran war.
12. And to top the list, they are not Igbo.

Reasons Yorubas Should NOT Marry Igbos:

1. They’re rude; they have no respect.
2. All they know how to do is chase money.
3. Their pounded yam is as hard as stone.
4. They don’t put enough oil and spice in their food.
5. Their in-laws are wicked! The husband’s family will
always maltreat the woman.
6. They cannot speak Yoruba, and even if they can, they
do not know our culture.
7. They will sell their brother for money.
8. They won’t let us play our fuji music at home.
9. They’re Nigeria’s problem. They keep trying to divide
us.
10. When their women die, their bodies have to be
returned to Igbo Land to be buried.
11. They eat human beings.
12. And the mother of all crimes, they are not Yoruba.

But Vausas or any other tribe can marry Igbos or Yorubas because those reasons are negligible right?


Smdh!

That list is complete utter rubbish, it is foolish to generalize a whole group of people based on silly steoreotypes
