Igbos are Yoruba great grand children. Please be gentle with them. Eventually, in about 2000 years their accomplishment will come closer to what Yorubas have already achieved. Yorubas will continue to encourage, protect and support Igbos our great grand children.

Igbos and inferiority complex are Siamese twins!! I can bet,70% of the people on this list are not known in their neighborhood talk less of being a star, you just came here to post random names when you are not an INEC official that wants to rig an election. Like I always say, yorubas are not your mates in any field of human endeavor.......hundreds of years before the monkey became domesticated, the dog has been sharing shelter with humans.

Lol. Why should the Yoruba bother about an employee of MTV when we have built TV that took over the Nigerian market already with reputable awards.

The Yorubas own:
Tajudeen adepetu-CMA Group
-SoundcityTV
-Soundcity FM
-ONTV, ONMax
-Televista Movies, Spice TV, Village Square,
-Trybe TV
-Urban96,
-Access24

Ayo animashaun
-Organizers of Headies
-HIP TV

Mind you, MTV will definitely come to Africa coz they are establishing platform in each continent and normally they will launch in Africa so stop making it a big deal. Below is how MTV started establishing their platform across continent.
