You're igbo by nation, you're of the Igbo nation. In a nation, there are tribes.
Ethnicity and Nation correlate but am still correct and you are correct still,my Ethnicity is Igbo. But Ethnicity is solely based on common ancestry which Nationality lacks, anybody can be a Nigerian but not anybody can be Igbo.
Let me break it down to you in a layman level.
E.G
Isreal is a Nation,we have Ethnic Jewish and in there we have 12 tribes in Isreal (including ones who haven't been included).

Tribes are people who are closely related by bloods common dialect(most be mutually intelligible), tradition etc.
Ethnicity are those who share same ancestry language (albeit different dialects/sometimes mutually untelligible).
Hope you understand it now.
BTW If you call Igbo a Nation you aren't wrong as well.

I don't know why I don't feel anything about Nigeria, I feel very bad when addressed as a Nigerian, for God sake I don't want to hear the name Nigeria, they should just divide this country
ok concluded !!!! Divide with Cutlass or Swords Oga the reson you feel like that is simple : Either the Hatred in you,Your wishes doesn't manifested, you have personal financial problems .we all know things is not working in Nigeria but we don't need to destroy it but to rebuild it.

United States & Canada are both a 100 times more diverse than Nigeria, let’s just say as usual the black man is unable to solve his problems so he comes up with excuses.

Ordinary electricity they cannot provide for themselves.

US,Canada,Australia are nations of immigrants whites stole the land from red indians and the Aborigines.
Nigeria on the otherhsnd is a country of indigeneous people.Nigeria can only be compared to UK and countries in Europe.

Denmark and Sweden were enemies for many years till they signed a treaty to gove away some cities to Sweden to ha e peace.Sweden was the bully of Scamdinavia.Turkey was also a colonial power in East Europe and Greece at some time in history before these nations fought to break away from slavery.

Only slaves are forced to live together.

Me and my kids are doing very well, we don’t need luck but we are extremely lucky if you know what I mean.

Nigeria is our country and our country is Nigeria. This is an undeniable fact, we hold the Nigerian passport, we are not delusional at all, we face reality as it stands on ground.


Am very sure u and ur family are beneficiaries of the choas and confusion currently going on in nigeria that's probably why u are vehemently insisting on the status quo to continue forever.

You are missing the point

Nation (Israel ) — same origin (sons of Abraham), same language (Hebrew), same culture (Judaism)

Tribes (Benjaminites, Reubenites, Ephraimaites, etc) From a sub unit in a nation.


Nigeria ≠ nation. Inside Nigeria are many nations.

Are you really alright?
Who told you All Israeli originate from Abraham?
Who told you Hebrew is the language everyone speaks(not all Israeli are Jew,Jew are one of the Ethnic group in Isreal)
Do you even know that Isreal is the most diverse Nation in Middle East?
Bro am done talking to you if you don’t get your facts before posting.


Lastly Incase you don’t know the Israelites aren’t the Israeli the former is predominantly Jewish Nation but Isreal today isn’t that again Isreal today is a very diverse country
