I Dont Care What You Say, Igbos Are The Majority In Nigeria by Ikengawo: 8:27am On Jan 14, 2010
there's no hiding the fact anymore.
if you look at civil service
films
music
sports
diaspora
achievements
anything the gives nigeria face internationaly and nationally, igbos are usually 90% of the sector.


so ppl that say igbos aren't the majority are saying igbos are some type of ultra superior race whose per capita contribution to nigeria is 10 fold what everyone else is.

i think things like our soccer team and media are ethnically honest representations of the population in nigeria. how can the 'repressed minority' also be the most visible group in overwhelming percentages.


also, all major cities in nigeria are AT LEAST 70% igbo, no joke.
and you'll find igbos in very village and city in all parts of the country but you'll rarely if ever find others in our cities.


also, the igbo region of nigeria is the most densely populated in africa outside of the nile in egpyt

Chapelle the genius, using your logic(if we can call it so), since something like 95% of the male US basket team is black, blacks are the majority in the US.
Whites are the majority in South Africa cos the cricket team is predominantly white, eh ?

@Amaka

I am happy that you refused the tribal bigots here.

@poster ikengawo

Some people and some Yorubas know that the Yorubas  are the largest black ethnic group in the world. To me it means cow dung because what does it do for me as a Nigerian? I do not let my tribe up in peoples face, my yorubaness stops at my yoruba.

THE PRARSITIC ELITE OF THE 3 ETHNIC GROUPS THINK THEY OWN NIGERIA WE SEE IJAW PLAYING THE YORUBA AGAINST THE IGBO WE SEE THE "MINORITY" TRIBES TAKE POWER AFTER THE DEMISE OF IRONSI. PEOPLE HAVE BEEN SILENT GOWON RULED NIGERIA HE IS NEVER AN HAUSA HE IS EVEN A CHRISTIAN.


THE MINORITY TRIBES HAVE RULED US FOR A LONGER PERIOD WE THE SO CALLED MAJORITY TRIBES ARE JUST EGOIST. LOOK AT A MAN THROUGH HIS PERSONALITY NOT HIS TRIBE.

I KNOW IT IS NOT EASY BUT LET US START TO SHOW THE MINORITY TRIBE THAT WE ARE NOT SWOLLEN HEADED. THE FIGHTING AND DISILLUSIONMENT WITH TRIBE FAVOUR THE MINORITY TRIBE BECAUSE EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE RULED FOR YEARS YOU CANT SEE THEM. LET US PATIENTLY LOVE EACH OTHER.

GOD BLESS NIGERIA

This and Amaka's responses can only come from matured minds far more matured than the narrow and myopic view exhibited by the poster of this thread.
Re: I Dont Care What You Say, Igbos Are The Majority In Nigeria by ReachRich(m): 1:51pm On Jan 14, 2010
Whats wrong in accepting the fact.It is obvious that Igbos have the greatest populatns amongst the entire tribes of Nigeria despite the fact that the Hausa's have more states.Which state,city,town,village will u go to in Nigeria and u wont find an Igbo?Even outside the shores of Nigeria,Igbos are the most travelled tribe.
Lets just accept it.
Re: I Dont Care What You Say, Igbos Are The Majority In Nigeria by russellino: 2:05pm On Jan 14, 2010
All this tribal crap has died a natural crap on NL. We actually have bigger problems right now like errrr , no president, terrorist tags, extreme poverty and growing anarchy. I'm Igbo but right now it doesnt matter, the sorry state of this crazy country ranks high on my priority list

Number 1- densley populated means small area or compact, go read a book.

They very well may be because the first few yorubas,fulanis are migrants who entered Nigerias area met Niger congo people some of which they introduced to civilization "made yoruba" or "fulani", some of which they pushed further to the SE.(Igbo literally means bush or woods, forest dwellers in yoruba). Many yorubas, fulanis, hausas if not all are not really 100% but comprimise of a mixture of conquered people.

If igbos are the largest tribe in Nigeria, then stop complaining and act like the largest tribe in Nigeria, why have a biafra when you were the first people in all of Nigeria?. Which no one denies.

Igbos cant be the majority of Nigerian residents now. Many Igbos are abroad and you cannot be there and here at the same time. Yes, Igbo will be the largest group if all of them were living in Nigeria.

I am impressed with your comments. One does not always have to toe the tribal line, especially when it is moronic.

Don't mind those who claim greatness through tribal lines. Of what use is the richest man in Nigeria being from your tribe when you are personally as poor as a church rat. Rather than for those who claim to be educated, to be concerned with improving their lot in life or assisting their family and friends, they come on NL with all sorts of irrelevant and redundant statistics about how superior their tribe is when compared with other tribes or how other tribes are backward. Mekusxyz, I am referring to you and your ilk.
Re: I Dont Care What You Say, Igbos Are The Majority In Nigeria by SapeleGuy: 12:00am On Jan 15, 2010
First of all census figures are lies. Nigeria is the only country in the world where population increases as you move towards the desert. Every where else the opposite is true.

This 'we plenty pass you' thinking is redundant and backward.
