Africans have been suffering for thousands of years because of tribalism. Europeans and Arabs used the tribalism problem in Africa to turn Africans against each other, which made it easy for them to enslave and colonize Africans. To build a stable modern country, you need a united population that identifies as one. And for life to get better for Africans, Africans will need to work together. So as long as Africans continue practicing tribalism, they will forever suffer.
Yes is Yoruba , because igbos started it during 1966 millitary coup when igbos leader started killing yorubas leaders in their region is it not out of tribalistic, if u no start ham, Yoruba no go see u, we are on it let’s see who go tirer

Ohh wow, Ayodeji spoke my mind. Tribalism existed more among the older generations and less among this present one, we just agreed to talk about it more than they did. The rate at which inter-ethnic kind of marriage is increasing shows that we're ready to dump tribalism for love compared those times when it's a taboo to marry from other tribes.
Nigerians still married from the other tribes for love in pre colonial times despite the tribal warfare the couples have to go through and half of the times the extended families broke up the unfortunate marriages to split the couples. So many civil wars went in our past that kept the old generations divided. Our nasty and unfair political history didn’t convince them either. They seam to think that Nigeria will break apart any moment since the 1960s. We are still here together today even after a national civil war. A good government that was voted in my the people without foreign interventions and electoral fraud like the free and fair June 12th 1993 presidential elections of the late president elect chief MKO Abiola and the 2023 elections that Peter Obi won would have united Nigerians and cemented the bond between our over 500 diverse ethic groups within just 8 years. 90% of Nigeria’s political class need to be swept out of power forever in a revolution. Us Nigerians. We unite more in the diasporas. I was raised on the concept of one strong, united and indivisible federal republic of Nigeria decades ago. I still believe in Nigeria as Africa’s greatest hope because there are no other alternatives out there.
Everybody should stay in their Arena to avoid tribalism! I'm proud to be Yoruba because we are generous people, we accomondate and we are ready to render help indiscriminatly compeard to the other tribe
That's rich, coming from a tribe that recently took the balon dor in tribalism during the last elections.

@@HeroesofHeaven.that is politics of survival.... Yoruba have not come to Igbo land to influence who would be the governor because we stay on our lane and mind our business. Why should we give you the luxury to choose a leader for us just because you have migrated to our region in droves?

@@mcdaniayo3711 He has a Yoruba father? Which makes him Yoruba. Every ethnic group under the sun lives in Lagos. That's a reality that has next to nothing to do with Yoruba people or Yorubaland. Just as Abuja has nothing to do with the North. The capital of Nigeria was Lagos for a long time, people flocked there, overtime it became the commerce capital, likewise in Abuja. That it is no longer the capital, doesn't mean you can recreate history, to create this falsehood that people want to live with Yoruba people because of something you supposedly did. Yorubaland, for all intents and purposes is one of the least developed regions of the country, outside of Lagos. It's littered with shanty towns and slums, as far as the eye can see. That's why millions of Yoruba people have trooped into tiny Lagos, and are now trying to claim it as their own. As if all Igbo people left, Lagos wouldn't collapse economically.
As a Yoruba man,i'm not tribalistic but want my own country where Yoruba is the official language even though i have a dialect. It's not always tribalism when parents doesn't want their children to marry a certain tribes...Yoruba in general are not that bad. How to move on is division, it's not a MUST to be one Nigeria
So says the tribal bigot who thinks wearing tribal marks is tribalism, they are used for fashion, recognition e.g to know which state in Yoruba Land a person is from etc, and besides Hausas and other ethnic groups have it, so basically your statement is null.
The Yorubas appears to be more tribalistic because the economic hub, Lagos is in their land. Their region, South West is also arguably the most developed region in the country. The entertainment (music and movie), tourism, education etc find expression more there and as such there is more cross-cultural interactions. Tribalism exist in other regions but because there is less cross-cultural or multicultural interaction, we don’t know the extent of their tribalism and that makes it seem the hubris of ethnocentrism is less prevalent
Tribalism exist I other regions because of intolerance, especially in the S/E desperate people, they can be very dangerous and eat you raw if care is not taken..
@@DeZ007You may have to redefine what development means…development is not about just having beautiful roads and flowers. It’s definitely not limited to aesthetics. The concepts of development is much more robust. For example, Ogun State is the most industrialised states in Nigeria with more than 16 Universities. Is there any other states with more industrial outputs in the South-South? Most of the states in the South-South still rely on oil revenues, even the most touted Odili road in Port Harcourt have such reputation because that’s where most of the oil companies are situated. Let’s not talk about Ibadan which is even bigger than Lagos and used to be if not the biggest city in West Africa. So, I know what I’m talking about…

Your case study is not strong enough as a basis to draw conclusion. 2023 election. No. It was preceded by different events that caused the imbalance. I didn't vote, I would have voted Peter Obi (Igbo). My street has majority of Yoruba and Peter Obi won the presidential election but Gbadebo Chinedu lost the gubernatorial election. I overheard some Yoruba men vowing that "we will never allow Igbo here". They went ahead to state what annoys them. The statement "Lagos is a no-man's land". I don't know who started the statement, but that war may never end. I first saw it when Facebook started, and it grew. He may not really mean what he's saying, but just want the Yoruba to feel the pain of the statement. Fine, they felt the pain, but you made the wrong joke. It's too sensitive. Yoruba's vote is always what determines presidential result and that's why all attention is on Yoruba. Peter Obi had almost 100% of votes in the south east, you think they voted massively because they believed in him? No. Some, Yes, but for many, it's just because "It should be Igbo's turn". Some northerners must have voted for Tinubu because he's a Muslim. We are equally tribalistic. The answer to who is MOST, depends on the case study being considered.
@@dubemellit2932That means I can go to Abia, Imo, Enugu, Anambra, Eboyin, and Owere and say the same thing that their tand is no Man land! How are you going to feel, be honest with yourself?
@@rafsalam2008 People have said so many things about Onitsha without no life being threatened. There is one Hausa man living in East that pointed out dilapidated road in the East and insult the governors and nothing is done to him. There are a lot of Yorubas at Onitsha that frequently complain about the system and yet, no Igbo person is threatening the life of Yoruba in the East. Lagos is no man's land is a slogan everyone in Lagos used to express our daily hustle and it pose no harm to anybody. Not just Igbo but Yorubas inclusive use it when everyone is expressing the kind of Lagos lifestyle.
This types of discussion will always follow the prevalent social media narratives when numbers and stats are never used. What does the number say during the election. Which tribes voted for its tribe's person the most and which tribe voted more equitably? People like to ignore the numbers which is the most objective barometer to measure this kind of complex and sensitive topics, instead, they go with personal views and opinions of those within their circles who likely share the same views as themselves and this can never be representative of reality.
The most tribalistic tribe in Nigeria is the Igbo. The Yoruba are the most receptive ,hospitable tribe and highly tolerant. Perhaps the reason why their region is the most progressive. Follow by the Hausas,especially if you embrace their Islamic religious conservatism,least materialistic. Also Hospitable too.however, Hausa could be intolerant of unfamiliar culture and traditions. As someone who has transverse all the regions and also lived amongst all the tribe and coming from a minority tribe myself, my observation showed the Igbo to be tribalistic and the first to shout tribalism when the same tribal card is being played against them.. It is not a surprise that their region abores the least tribes or ethnicity in Nigeria. Igbo played a central role in governance in the 1960s. In fact, they led the first coup that killed almost all the post independence Nigerian leaders. While they specifically killed other tribe leaders, all their leader were tipped off to go on exile. No single Igbo leaders were killed. It is also common to see Igbo buying land and building houses amongst other tribe in Nigeria,meanwhile ,in their region, they are hostile, forbid to sell land to other tribes or if you are not Igbo. In fact, Igbo can also be tribalistic to themselves. They practice the chaste system,very similar to the Hindus. Amongst the Igbo, there are people who are forbidden to get married to or live with. They called them 'Osu'. Unfortunately, my wife's friend was stigmatised by some of her Igbo mates for being Osu. This stigmatisation amongst the Igbo made some of them go on permanent exile, never to go back to Igbo land. In the last election, 90% of them voted for presidential candidates from their region(in a multiparty election) despite the fact that he was the least qualified of two candidates of the major parties. Results showed that the Igbo candidate won in Igbo dominated communities in Nigeria. Lagos is a Yoruba state,they voted massively for the Igbo candidate to the extent he won a Yoruba candidate on his land,something not possible in igboland. There are more Igbo in Yoruba and Hausa land than in Igboland. The most profitable marketplace for the Igbo is not Igbo land but Alaba international market in Yoruba land. These showed how Detribalized and opened other tribes are.
@@FERESE Are the Yorubas not tribalism? People like myself who is Lagosian by birth understood how tribal some Yorubas are but the initial commenter above is here generalizing the whole tribe as if Igbos has ever had any issue with Yorubas living peacefully in the East. There are a lot of tribes in the East including Yorubas and Hausas. People who are suffering from self inflicted hate will come on the internet to spread lies about how Igbo are not accommodating. The Yoruba man that bought land and constructed company in Owerri, who do you guys think is accommodating him? When there was a conflict in Benin Kingdom, some group of Yoruba migrated out of Benin and move down to Anioma, Delta state. It was same Igbo tribe that accommodated them till date.
Genuine or whatever your name is, when Obasanjo received 80% of vote and won major state in the East and against Ojukwu, who did the Yorubas voted for then? Election is a choose but as tribalistic as you're, you've made it to about tribe. Lagos LP governorship candidate was rejected and tag Igbo despite the fact that his Father is Yoruba and mother is Igbo. Igbos in Lagos were disenfranchise from voting by Tinubu touts and any polling unit that LP is leading were destroyed. You and the north are really accommodating to the extent that both tribe fight and kill each other.
Other Nigeria will be like 😂😂😂 make I no talk abeg.. Every nig kw who be who.. for example 2023 election 😊😊 Only legends can decide You can tell that to little child.. Writing junk nonsense...
Every tribe in Nigeria has its elements of tribalism, but overall Yorubas are the least tolerant of other tribes in Nigeria. Which other tribe is destroying fellow Nigerians properties besides the Yorubas. Which other tribe is threatening to drown other Nigerians if they don't vote for Yoruba. The handwriting is on the wall. Lagos was built on the back of all Nigerians . May God help us.
To the moderator, I would want to know if there is any non-Yoruba man that wanted to rule Lagos - Not one that I know. Are you saying that Gbadebo is an Ibo? Are you from your mother's town or your father's town? These are APC strategies to make people believe that they are more Yoruba than Gbadebo when in the real sense Gbadebo is a Lagosian while others are from either Osun (Tinubu), Ekiti (Fashola), Sanwolu (Ogun) etc... The only Lagosian (Ambode) was not allowed by an Osun, Ogun & Ekiti to complete his tenure. One day we shall be liberated For an effective discuss on this topic, you need at least 5 people a Hausa man, Youruba, Ibo, and two others from the minority tribes.
the Hausas did not vote for Atiku from the North, we voted Tinubu instead. any region that you see less of the other people from the other regions could be term intolerant to other people. most especially the SOUTH EAST for example are least tolerant of other Nigerians. but they live in other part of the Nigeria more.
ayo blame our parent for this but tribes issues never be a major problem until last election , I stop going to twitter's because of young People causing tribal problems which not our parent
The presidential voting patterns prove who is more tribalistic. The fact is that numbers do not lie. Igbos have voted for presidents from the North and presidents from the West. Neither the West of the North has voted for anyone from the East. =Igbos were attacked in Lagos and had their shops destroyed by Yorubas because they feared Peter Obi being president. GRV told was told shouldn't be allowed to win because his mother is Igbo and was called "ọmọ ale" by Yorubas. The more these people hate Igbos, the stronger Igbos will be become. A lot of projection in the comment from the real tribalists. They know in their heart that their hatred has blinded them to be okay with backwardness (corruption, no light, no good roads, lack of clean water, bad education system, terrorism, kidnapping, bad health care, cultism, etc) as long as Ndi Igbo suffers with them.
It's unfair to use federal elections as to why Yorubas are tribalistic. I would have agreed if Peter Obi ran under PDP and doesn't have close to 50% of Yoruba votes. It has always been the North and South West.Is there any Labor party Governor in South West? The answer is NO. Peter Obi can not win without a solid structure (s) in a country like Nigeria where up 40% of the population are unemployed.
Let the truth be told this is not because it is Yoruba or igbo wht we talking is abt qualification we AL know that in very election 2023 the very person that is qualified amongs all is Peter Obi.we all hav seen wht happen in Lagos during the last election we can now say that Yorubas without doubt is more tribalistic.

Very good program.but you guys haven't hit.what the topic said. Is Nigeria a tribalistic country yes or no and you give your reasons and your experience.. simple
Yorubas are more tribalistic than any other tribe in Nigeria. It should be remembered that the cause of the Nigerian Civil War was as a result of disagreements between Chief Obafemi Awolowo and Chief Samuel Ladoke Akintola plus Mr. Adegoke Adelabu. (We'll discuss this later). After the civil war, and the establishment of the NYSC, things were smooth, and National Unity was getting to be achieved. The instability and the plant or seed of discord was sown by the leadership of the 1999 through the 2007. That seed of discord, hate, discrimination and apathy has grown so much now that it will take a lot to remove and destroy. Everyone saw what happened during the 2022 elections. What Tinubu, Sanwo-Olu, MC Oluomo, and others showed that the same tribe that helped build Lagos should not have a say in Lagos State, and also, if your mother is Igbo or Hausa, that you are not allowed to vote in Lagos, even if you have lived in Lagos for thousands of years. But Tinubu forgot that his wife, Oluremi Tinubu is an Itsekiri woman. Yet Nigeria has a Federal Government that has the responsibility to unite the nation, but not doing that. Look at the employment pattern in Nigeria today, is it not NEPOTISTIC? The national leadership could play nepotism in a country where States control their own resources, and do not wait for monthly allocations from the Federal Government. In that case, States would have enough funds to create jobs and provide other amenities for its people. tribalistic
The cause of the civil war in Nigeria was because of the coup orchestrated by Igbo soldiers who killed Mortherners including the Prime Minister and millitary heads from the North with some of Yoruba extraction. No single igbo was killed. Aguyi Ironsi became head of state but nothing was being dine to thr perpetrators and the Northerners carried out theirs killing igbos and some Yoruba got caught in the crossfire. So please don't rewrite history. I detest it when any group does this.
@@bobibrown3358 Are you stupid? What was the cause of the coup? Are you not aware of what was happening in the Western Region at the time? You forgot about Operation weti weti, where the supporters of Awolowo and Ladoke Akintola were burning each other and their properties over political power and the prime minister Tafawa Balewa could not do anything. Go and revisit history and be honest if you truly wants to find a solution to our ethnic and tribal issues.
@@bobibrown3358 It's called Igbo coup but when Buhari and other does it, it was not associated to any tribe. Even the coup plotters are of different tribe but blame game were shifted to Igbos alone. Mind you, the coup is not even the genesis of Nigeria tribal conflict. It goes beyond coup.
It is referred to as the coup of 1966, it was the very first coup in Nigeria that ended the first republic. Hence of all the coups ot is a very significant event which also led to civil war in Nigeria. We need to be very careful not to rewrite history by deleting perrinent details. This coup was what what caused the Northern retaliation, and the civil war. I insist that we honour the truth when referring to history, the coup was led by Igbo military officers and no igbo senior army officer was killed matter of fact they all were mysteriously away at the time which led to the belief that they must have been informed prior to the coup taking place. Some Yoruba officers were killed during the coup. Mainly Northern leaders were killed by the masterminds of the coup who were all of Igbo extraction. This is a fact. If a group leads an attack and killing of another that is an act of war. So the civil war was single handedly caused by the actions of those that led the first coup. Where no one from their tribe lost a life. The guy above is trying to place blame on others. Obafemi Awolowo did not and was not responsible for the coup either partially or indirectly. Obafemi Awolowo didn't want war. There will always be a price to pay if we embrace lies in order to change the narrative. We should be able to be honest even if it makes us look bad. At least there is honor in you. To change everything or lie will continue to allow distrust to fester.
What especially do Yorubas have, that makes Igbos to envy or hate them? Moreover, if you haven't voted for any Igbo, in any election, or attended any church owned by a Igbo pastors, what do you call yourself? I am proud to remind you that Igbos had been voting for Yorubas, in the person's like OBJ, MKO, etc. Igbos also attend churches established and owned by Yoruba pastors. Igbos live more in other tribes than any other tribes in Nigeria. With this few things mentioned, how are they tribalistic, in your own definition?

@@Southernview3k Mr man it's not a new thing because in the long run even good friends sometimes fight each other in order for them to get along well. But in reality the people that have always been the problem of the Yoruba's are the igbo's simply bcos only the igbo' tribe can tell another tribe that their ancestral land is a no man's land, Or Igbo parents lying to their young ones by spreading false story about how the Yoruba's betray them which was actually the other way round. Infact it was the igbo's that organized the first ever coup in Nigeria which got other tribe's leader killed just for the purpose of placing an Igbo general called Aguiyi Ironsi as the head of state. But it's unfortunate that the Northerners came for their revenge some months later just for the purpose of assassinating Ironsi and his Cohorts in government which later lead to the Biafran war. The igbo's have always been the problem of the Yoruba's right before the coup bcos Nnamdi Azikwe himself have once sorted out the help of the Northerners in order to divide the western lands into two simply bcos Awolowo took second position in the first ever election conducted in Nigeria after the British left us power. As a matter of fact, they succeeded dividing the Western territory into two regions which later gave birth to the South South Region. So therefore Mr man you are not in any position to say things you know nothing about.
If this is discussed with clear conscience, you know that Igbo people are pretty far enough from tribalism. They are the ones when you talk about one Nigeria, is the Igbo. They erect structures anywhere in Nigeria, businesses, togetherness, development etc. They still lose them in terms of conflict, confiscation by the Federal Government which we all know, so you guys should not convey this to Igbo that they are tribalistic.
Ayo is the most dumb guy in the room, he just took a stand that his people are the most tribal because he want to be validated. Everyone one knows that the yorubas and hausas are the most welcoming people in Nigeria and that's why we have many ethnic groups residing across their states. In the east, it's very hard for yorubas or someone not from there to purchase a land and other things, that's why the east is the least diverse region in the country.
The word:TRIBE is a colonial language which should be discarded! Go and check the difference between ethnicity and tribalism. Why do GS the French, English, Scotsman, Welshman,Swedish, Germans, etc call themselves tribes….some of them are much smaller than our ethnic groups which we reduced to ‘tribes’. You people should read about cultural anthropology and differentiate between upholding you ethnic cultures and tribalism and nepotism. I think the basic problem is a poor governance structure which leads to distrust….injustice and corruption. It s a complex issue. It is good you are talking about it, but I think the approach is rather narrow….
@annefalola9278 I agree 💯,. Personally, I know tribe is a smaller group, and clans are even smaller and of family structure. I'm getting along in the discussion and following the trend, and knowing that's what Nigerian are conversant with , I just follow in.

You lot are too quick in shifting blame and turn blind eye to what your fellow tribe do to others. You claimed both are accommodating and yet you fought yourself resulting to death and lost of goods and properties burned down. In case you're not properly informed, there are lots of Yorubas, Northerners and some other South South living in the East.
@@adetolaayodele3425 That statement "Yorubas have no hygiene" is not just Igbos that say that. I've heard that from my 2 Ghanian friends in Lagos who came to do my POP in the house.

I travel everyday to Nigeria via nollywood. From this perspective, IGBO people are more tribalist. In reality the lack of green pasture oportunities, bad social experiences turns most of us into tribalists bcz tribe is where belong, second to family. African countries are not nations. African countries are regional blocks, which includes dozens even hundreds of nations like Nigeria. No country have managed such diversity before the end of colonialism making it challenging to Africa get some sort of social and national stability. The solution is a marathon race not a sprint bcz we have been dealing with each other for so long most of the time in wrong maner.
Lols ...we know the people that stopped others from voting ...we know the people that burnt peoples businesses in lagos ...but nobody wants to talk about it ...MC olu whatever is not an igbo ...you all make me laugh when u talk about igbos as tribalistic ...lets not come here and pretend ..

Africans have been suffering for thousands of years because of tribalism. Europeans and Arabs used the tribalism problem in Africa to turn Africans against each other, which made it easy for them to enslave and colonize Africans. To build a stable modern country, you need a united population that identifies as one. And for life to get better for Africans, Africans will need to work together. So as long as Africans continue practicing tribalism, they will forever suffer.
Igbos supported Obasanjo, yaraduwa, and Jonathan. Tell me which Igbo man yorubas have supported? The most tribalistic tribe in Nigeria is Yoruba.
Including Abiola
They supported Obasanjo because there were just two options and both of which were Yorubas(Falae and Obasanjo)
@@deleokedara4398what about their support for Abiola?
Yes is Yoruba , because igbos started it during 1966 millitary coup when igbos leader started killing yorubas leaders in their region is it not out of tribalistic, if u no start ham, Yoruba no go see u, we are on it let’s see who go tirer

We are not the same people for God's seek we are different people with different ideologies and different value system, Britain committed the worst crime against humanity by joining different people in one entity. Nigeria has never worked and can never work, never. Let divide Nigeria peacefully and become good neighbors after all my best friends are francophone
Ohh wow, Ayodeji spoke my mind.
Tribalism existed more among the older generations and less among this present one, we just agreed to talk about it more than they did.
The rate at which inter-ethnic kind of marriage is increasing shows that we're ready to dump tribalism for love compared those times when it's a taboo to marry from other tribes.
Nigerians still married from the other tribes for love in pre colonial times despite the tribal warfare the couples have to go through and half of the times the extended families broke up the unfortunate marriages to split the couples. So many civil wars went in our past that kept the old generations divided. Our nasty and unfair political history didn’t convince them either. They seam to think that Nigeria will break apart any moment since the 1960s. We are still here together today even after a national civil war.
A good government that was voted in my the people without foreign interventions and electoral fraud like the free and fair June 12th 1993 presidential elections of the late president elect chief MKO Abiola and the 2023 elections that Peter Obi won would have united Nigerians and cemented the bond between our over 500 diverse ethic groups within just 8 years. 90% of Nigeria’s political class need to be swept out of power forever in a revolution.
Us Nigerians. We unite more in the diasporas. I was raised on the concept of one strong, united and indivisible federal republic of Nigeria decades ago. I still believe in Nigeria as Africa’s greatest hope because there are no other alternatives out there.
Everybody should stay in their Arena to avoid tribalism! I'm proud to be Yoruba because we are generous people, we accomondate and we are ready to render help indiscriminatly compeard to the other tribe
That's rich, coming from a tribe that recently took the balon dor in tribalism during the last elections. Even went against your own brother because he was lucky enough to have a mother and wife from another ethnic group. You people showed yourselves for who you really are.

All his past activities where he(a supposed Yoruba) insulted the Yoruba race are all public knowledge on Twitter.
@@mcdaniayo3711 There's a saying in the good book that the wicked runneth when nothing chaseth. Where have you seen that we igbos chose a candidate to run against you people? Is GRV an Igbo man?

Just because we chose not support your candidate we've suddenly chosen to take over Lagos. A land we already own when your people sold it to us and use the money to throw lavish parties and whatnot. We want to take " your" land because we chose to VOTE, not threaten, not cajole, not fight, not spread properganda, not forcefully take " your" land or go to war with you over it.

@@mcdaniayo3711 He has a Yoruba father? Which makes him Yoruba. Every ethnic group under the sun lives in Lagos. That's a reality that has next to nothing to do with Yoruba people or Yorubaland. Just as Abuja has nothing to do with the North. The capital of Nigeria was Lagos for a long time, people flocked there, overtime it became the commerce capital, likewise in Abuja. That it is no longer the capital, doesn't mean you can recreate history, to create this falsehood that people want to live with Yoruba people because of something you supposedly did.
Yorubaland, for all intents and purposes is one of the least developed regions of the country, outside of Lagos. It's littered with shanty towns and slums, as far as the eye can see. That's why millions of Yoruba people have trooped into tiny Lagos, and are now trying to claim it as their own. As if all Igbo people left, Lagos wouldn't collapse economically.
As a Yoruba man,i'm not tribalistic but want my own country where Yoruba is the official language even though i have a dialect. It's not always tribalism when parents doesn't want their children to marry a certain tribes...Yoruba in general are not that bad. How to move on is division, it's not a MUST to be one Nigeria
It's so refreshing seeing a Yoruba man say this, I'm Ikwerre from South South😅
What’s wrong with being tribalistic? I can be nationalistic but can’t be tribalistic?
Yoruba is so tribalistic that they carry their tribal marks for face 😂😂😂😂
So says the tribal bigot who thinks wearing tribal marks is tribalism, they are used for fashion, recognition e.g to know which state in Yoruba Land a person is from etc, and besides Hausas and other ethnic groups have it, so basically your statement is null.
Thanks for schooling him
The Yorubas appears to be more tribalistic because the economic hub, Lagos is in their land. Their region, South West is also arguably the most developed region in the country. The entertainment (music and movie), tourism, education etc find expression more there and as such there is more cross-cultural interactions. Tribalism exist in other regions but because there is less cross-cultural or multicultural interaction, we don’t know the extent of their tribalism and that makes it seem the hubris of ethnocentrism is less prevalent
Tribalism exist I other regions because of intolerance, especially in the S/E desperate people, they can be very dangerous and eat you raw if care is not taken..
@@InnocentNyong-v8t😂
Please educate yourself. The South South is the most developed region in Nigeria. The South West only have one thriving city which is Lagos.
@@DeZ007You may have to redefine what development means…development is not about just having beautiful roads and flowers. It’s definitely not limited to aesthetics. The concepts of development is much more robust. For example, Ogun State is the most industrialised states in Nigeria with more than 16 Universities. Is there any other states with more industrial outputs in the South-South? Most of the states in the South-South still rely on oil revenues, even the most touted Odili road in Port Harcourt have such reputation because that’s where most of the oil companies are situated. Let’s not talk about Ibadan which is even bigger than Lagos and used to be if not the biggest city in West Africa. So, I know what I’m talking about…
@@safiibrahim1778 Dude, places you mentioned are glorified villages even with close proximity to Lagos.. Lagos mainland stinks. Saving grace for Lagos is the Island so please humble yourself.

Let go back to regional government
Nigerians!!!! Stop this, why do we have to put such content out? Now don't be mad when other countries use this to disrespect you.
EVERY TRIBES IS TRIBALISTIC. Even in America there is tribalistic going on
Your case study is not strong enough as a basis to draw conclusion. 2023 election. No.
It was preceded by different events that caused the imbalance.
I didn't vote, I would have voted Peter Obi (Igbo). My street has majority of Yoruba and Peter Obi won the presidential election but Gbadebo Chinedu lost the gubernatorial election.
I overheard some Yoruba men vowing that "we will never allow Igbo here". They went ahead to state what annoys them. The statement "Lagos is a no-man's land".
I don't know who started the statement, but that war may never end. I first saw it when Facebook started, and it grew. He may not really mean what he's saying, but just want the Yoruba to feel the pain of the statement. Fine, they felt the pain, but you made the wrong joke. It's too sensitive.
Yoruba's vote is always what determines presidential result and that's why all attention is on Yoruba. Peter Obi had almost 100% of votes in the south east, you think they voted massively because they believed in him? No. Some, Yes, but for many, it's just because "It should be Igbo's turn".
Some northerners must have voted for Tinubu because he's a Muslim.
We are equally tribalistic. The answer to who is MOST, depends on the case study being considered.
Jakande said it.. Lagos is no man’s land.😅
@@dubemellit2932That means I can go to Abia, Imo, Enugu, Anambra, Eboyin, and Owere and say the same thing that their tand is no Man land! How are you going to feel, be honest with yourself?

People have said so many things about Onitsha without no life being threatened.
There is one Hausa man living in East that pointed out dilapidated road in the East and insult the governors and nothing is done to him. There are a lot of Yorubas at Onitsha that frequently complain about the system and yet, no Igbo person is threatening the life of Yoruba in the East.
Lagos is no man's land is a slogan everyone in Lagos used to express our daily hustle and it pose no harm to anybody.
Not just Igbo but Yorubas inclusive use it when everyone is expressing the kind of Lagos lifestyle.
This Tribalism topic ehn!!!!!
Great work Faith!
This types of discussion will always follow the prevalent social media narratives when numbers and stats are never used. What does the number say during the election. Which tribes voted for its tribe's person the most and which tribe voted more equitably?
People like to ignore the numbers which is the most objective barometer to measure this kind of complex and sensitive topics, instead, they go with personal views and opinions of those within their circles who likely share the same views as themselves and this can never be representative of reality.
The most tribalistic tribe in Nigeria is the Igbo. The Yoruba are the most receptive ,hospitable tribe and highly tolerant. Perhaps the reason why their region is the most progressive. Follow by the Hausas,especially if you embrace their Islamic religious conservatism,least materialistic. Also Hospitable too.however, Hausa could be intolerant of unfamiliar culture and traditions. As someone who has transverse all the regions and also lived amongst all the tribe and coming from a minority tribe myself, my observation showed the Igbo to be tribalistic and the first to shout tribalism when the same tribal card is being played against them.. It is not a surprise that their region abores the least tribes or ethnicity in Nigeria. Igbo played a central role in governance in the 1960s. In fact, they led the first coup that killed almost all the post independence Nigerian leaders. While they specifically killed other tribe leaders, all their leader were tipped off to go on exile. No single Igbo leaders were killed. It is also common to see Igbo buying land and building houses amongst other tribe in Nigeria,meanwhile ,in their region, they are hostile, forbid to sell land to other tribes or if you are not Igbo. In fact, Igbo can also be tribalistic to themselves. They practice the chaste system,very similar to the Hindus. Amongst the Igbo, there are people who are forbidden to get married to or live with. They called them 'Osu'. Unfortunately, my wife's friend was stigmatised by some of her Igbo mates for being Osu. This stigmatisation amongst the Igbo made some of them go on permanent exile, never to go back to Igbo land. In the last election, 90% of them voted for presidential candidates from their region(in a multiparty election) despite the fact that he was the least qualified of two candidates of the major parties. Results showed that the Igbo candidate won in Igbo dominated communities in Nigeria. Lagos is a Yoruba state,they voted massively for the Igbo candidate to the extent he won a Yoruba candidate on his land,something not possible in igboland. There are more Igbo in Yoruba and Hausa land than in Igboland. The most profitable marketplace for the Igbo is not Igbo land but Alaba international market in Yoruba land. These showed how Detribalized and opened other tribes are.
God bless you!!! Sentiments and Indomie generation will dominate the comment section.
@@FERESE
Are the Yorubas not tribalism? People like myself who is Lagosian by birth understood how tribal some Yorubas are but the initial commenter above is here generalizing the whole tribe as if Igbos has ever had any issue with Yorubas living peacefully in the East.
There are a lot of tribes in the East including Yorubas and Hausas.
People who are suffering from self inflicted hate will come on the internet to spread lies about how Igbo are not accommodating. The Yoruba man that bought land and constructed company in Owerri, who do you guys think is accommodating him? When there was a conflict in Benin Kingdom, some group of Yoruba migrated out of Benin and move down to Anioma, Delta state. It was same Igbo tribe that accommodated them till date.
Genuine or whatever your name is, when Obasanjo received 80% of vote and won major state in the East and against Ojukwu, who did the Yorubas voted for then?
Election is a choose but as tribalistic as you're, you've made it to about tribe. Lagos LP governorship candidate was rejected and tag Igbo despite the fact that his Father is Yoruba and mother is Igbo.
Igbos in Lagos were disenfranchise from voting by Tinubu touts and any polling unit that LP is leading were destroyed.
You and the north are really accommodating to the extent that both tribe fight and kill each other.
You lie, yoruba is the most tribalistic, mumu

Only legends can decide
You can tell that to little child..
Writing junk nonsense...
Every tribe in nigeria is tribalistic in nature, no particular tribe is tribalistic
Every tribe in Nigeria has its elements of tribalism, but overall Yorubas are the least tolerant of other tribes in Nigeria. Which other tribe is destroying fellow Nigerians properties besides the Yorubas. Which other tribe is threatening to drown other Nigerians if they don't vote for Yoruba. The handwriting is on the wall. Lagos was built on the back of all Nigerians . May God help us.
To the moderator, I would want to know if there is any non-Yoruba man that wanted to rule Lagos - Not one that I know. Are you saying that Gbadebo is an Ibo? Are you from your mother's town or your father's town? These are APC strategies to make people believe that they are more Yoruba than Gbadebo when in the real sense Gbadebo is a Lagosian while others are from either Osun (Tinubu), Ekiti (Fashola), Sanwolu (Ogun) etc... The only Lagosian (Ambode) was not allowed by an Osun, Ogun & Ekiti to complete his tenure. One day we shall be liberated
For an effective discuss on this topic, you need at least 5 people a Hausa man, Youruba, Ibo, and two others from the minority tribes.
the Hausas did not vote for Atiku from the North, we voted Tinubu instead. any region that you see less of the other people from the other regions could be term intolerant to other people. most especially the SOUTH EAST for example are least tolerant of other Nigerians. but they live in other part of the Nigeria more.
Have u been to east?
Atiku is not a Hausa man
ayo blame our parent for this but tribes issues never be a major problem until last election , I stop going to twitter's because of young People causing tribal problems which not our parent
The presidential voting patterns prove who is more tribalistic. The fact is that numbers do not lie. Igbos have voted for presidents from the North and presidents from the West. Neither the West of the North has voted for anyone from the East. =Igbos were attacked in Lagos and had their shops destroyed by Yorubas because they feared Peter Obi being president. GRV told was told shouldn't be allowed to win because his mother is Igbo and was called "ọmọ ale" by Yorubas. The more these people hate Igbos, the stronger Igbos will be become. A lot of projection in the comment from the real tribalists. They know in their heart that their hatred has blinded them to be okay with backwardness (corruption, no light, no good roads, lack of clean water, bad education system, terrorism, kidnapping, bad health care, cultism, etc) as long as Ndi Igbo suffers with them.
It's unfair to use federal elections as to why Yorubas are tribalistic. I would have agreed if Peter Obi ran under PDP and doesn't have close to 50% of Yoruba votes. It has always been the North and South West.Is there any Labor party Governor in South West? The answer is NO. Peter Obi can not win without a solid structure (s) in a country like Nigeria where up 40% of the population are unemployed.
Yorubas are learning tribalism where the hausa people are. Tinubu instigated his people against Igbos.
Let everyone rules themselves
Let the truth be told this is not because it is Yoruba or igbo wht we talking is abt qualification we AL know that in very election 2023 the very person that is qualified amongs all is Peter Obi.we all hav seen wht happen in Lagos during the last election we can now say that Yorubas without doubt is more tribalistic.

How on earth would you say Obi is the most qualified. What criteria do you use.. your statement really show how tribalistic you are.

You are a liar. Many Igbos marry men and women outside their ethnic group. The evidence is there including here on UA-cam. If your boyfriend family doesn't like you, it is not because you are non Igbo, rather it must be because of your character. Check yourself and change your behaviour

ALSO IF YOU MUST KNOW IT'S THE NORTHERNERS THAT ARE MORE TRIBALISTIC THAN MOST TRIBES IN NIGERIA 🇳🇬 IN MY OWN PERSPECTIVES AND THE MOST AUTHENTIC AND PATROTIC TRIBE IN NIGERIA 🇳🇬 TODAY IS THE IGBOS WITHOUT BEEN SENTIMENTAL IN EVERY RATIFICATION! REGARDLESS OF OUR INDIVIDUAL DIFFERENCES?
That Ayo is a betrayal and i won't be surprised if he is actually from Ogun state or few basttardddd Ekiti's like this Ayo guy bcos they're mostly known for romancing the Igbo's and they're totally sellout to their own Yoruba tribe.
This is a good exemple of a yoruba person😂
@@SamuelIkpakalu well you can say that again!!!
Tinubu people don show lol
To say the real truth here Yorubas are the most Tribalism tribe in Nigeria and also jelious of others, Good luck Jonathan a Good and handsome leader was kick out by the Yorubas because they want their brother to be president through Buhari not minding how knowledge able he Buhari his now Nigerians can see where we are today All the Good thing's we are Enjoying during Good luck Time are even worst than now because of the Greediness and Tribelism of the Yorubas
If government open Eastern seaports and international airports i give yoruba 3 years to be forgotten
It about individual lives lifes to the fullness,and you will never get that from Nigeria, with the current constitution
Its no longer news ....
I don't need to say which tribe to aviod be called out.. But definitely its not hausa or fulani or tiv etc..
Every Nigerian kw the tribe.. 🤔💯
Yes , we all know It Is igbo
Guilty conscience 🥵🤣😂
Yorubas are too tribalistic,a little thing u will hear omo Igbo, omo calabar,they are too bitter when another tribe is succeeding in their place
Thanks bro
Very good program.but you guys haven't hit.what the topic said.
Is Nigeria a tribalistic country yes or no and you give your reasons and your experience.. simple
Yoruba are the living example of incorrigible tribalism
Yorubas are more tribalistic than any other tribe in Nigeria. It should be remembered that the cause of the Nigerian Civil War was as a result of disagreements between Chief Obafemi Awolowo and Chief Samuel Ladoke Akintola plus Mr. Adegoke Adelabu. (We'll discuss this later). After the civil war, and the establishment of the NYSC, things were smooth, and National Unity was getting to be achieved. The instability and the plant or seed of discord was sown by the leadership of the 1999 through the 2007. That seed of discord, hate, discrimination and apathy has grown so much now that it will take a lot to remove and destroy.
Everyone saw what happened during the 2022 elections. What Tinubu, Sanwo-Olu, MC Oluomo, and others showed that the same tribe that helped build Lagos should not have a say in Lagos State, and also, if your mother is Igbo or Hausa, that you are not allowed to vote in Lagos, even if you have lived in Lagos for thousands of years. But Tinubu forgot that his wife, Oluremi Tinubu is an Itsekiri woman. Yet Nigeria has a Federal Government that has the responsibility to unite the nation, but not doing that. Look at the employment pattern in Nigeria today, is it not NEPOTISTIC? The national leadership could play nepotism in a country where States control their own resources, and do not wait for monthly allocations from the Federal Government. In that case, States would have enough funds to create jobs and provide other amenities for its people.
tribalistic
The cause of the civil war in Nigeria was because of the coup orchestrated by Igbo soldiers who killed Mortherners including the Prime Minister and millitary heads from the North with some of Yoruba extraction. No single igbo was killed. Aguyi Ironsi became head of state but nothing was being dine to thr perpetrators and the Northerners carried out theirs killing igbos and some Yoruba got caught in the crossfire. So please don't rewrite history. I detest it when any group does this.
@@bobibrown3358 Are you stupid? What was the cause of the coup? Are you not aware of what was happening in the Western Region at the time? You forgot about Operation weti weti, where the supporters of Awolowo and Ladoke Akintola were burning each other and their properties over political power and the prime minister Tafawa Balewa could not do anything. Go and revisit history and be honest if you truly wants to find a solution to our ethnic and tribal issues.
@@bobibrown3358
It's called Igbo coup but when Buhari and other does it, it was not associated to any tribe.
Even the coup plotters are of different tribe but blame game were shifted to Igbos alone.
Mind you, the coup is not even the genesis of Nigeria tribal conflict. It goes beyond coup.
It is referred to as the coup of 1966, it was the very first coup in Nigeria that ended the first republic. Hence of all the coups ot is a very significant event which also led to civil war in Nigeria. We need to be very careful not to rewrite history by deleting perrinent details. This coup was what what caused the Northern retaliation, and the civil war. I insist that we honour the truth when referring to history, the coup was led by Igbo military officers and no igbo senior army officer was killed matter of fact they all were mysteriously away at the time which led to the belief that they must have been informed prior to the coup taking place. Some Yoruba officers were killed during the coup. Mainly Northern leaders were killed by the masterminds of the coup who were all of Igbo extraction. This is a fact. If a group leads an attack and killing of another that is an act of war. So the civil war was single handedly caused by the actions of those that led the first coup. Where no one from their tribe lost a life. The guy above is trying to place blame on others. Obafemi Awolowo did not and was not responsible for the coup either partially or indirectly. Obafemi Awolowo didn't want war. There will always be a price to pay if we embrace lies in order to change the narrative. We should be able to be honest even if it makes us look bad. At least there is honor in you. To change everything or lie will continue to allow distrust to fester.
IBOS ARE THE WORST TRIBALIST ON EARTH AND ALL NIGERIANS K OW THAT
The fact is that other tribes are envious and jealous of Yorubas ..but ibos just hate Yorubas
What especially do Yorubas have, that makes Igbos to envy or hate them? Moreover, if you haven't voted for any Igbo, in any election, or attended any church owned by a Igbo pastors, what do you call yourself? I am proud to remind you that Igbos had been voting for Yorubas, in the person's like OBJ, MKO, etc. Igbos also attend churches established and owned by Yoruba pastors. Igbos live more in other tribes than any other tribes in Nigeria. With this few things mentioned, how are they tribalistic, in your own definition?
😂😂becos you people re Ruben, unstable😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂God let all of the state just handle their resources pls God
@@princesseke God answer prayers ,but sometimes the answer is NO ..because He knows better….like big NO he gave to your prayers for Peter Obi to win the election
@@oscarlagoke8920 God Himself will support that every state handle their resources to show who sabi envy pass
IBOS TOO HATEFUL OF YORUBAS …OTHERS TOO TO ENVIOUS OF YORUBAS
We the others what do we envy Yorubas for?
Please I'm curious, what are they envy about in particular?
Yorubas too love Ibos ?
abeg park well you guys love to turn things upside down ( black is white)
stop calling yourselves Yoruba that is where the problem came from the Fulanis gave you the name Yariba (cunning)
Oduduwa was from Bini
so Omobini should be your name
Ibos tribalist became more obvious during the last election and the follow uo when their hate for yorubas became to toxic and obvious
Please, remind us, which tribal card Igbos played in the last election.
When the igbos voted for obasanjo against their son Ojukwu is not tribalism, voted for yardua and buhari first tenure is not tribalism now voted for obi their son is tribalism, you see your sense of reasoning
Leave those useless sets of people.
Tinubu is the most selfish and tribalistic president in history of Nigeria .
1-The chief of staff to the president Yoruba

All these are Yorubas from the same ethnic group and region. No president in the history of Nigeria has ever play this tribalistic form of Governance.
Yoruba has always been the most civilized and accommodating tribe in Nigera so much non-yoruba speaking tribes are now influencing elections in yoruba land,some even won elective post and some got political appointments,yet most of them will say yoruba is tribalistic 😅😅😅
YORUBA are the most tribalist...
Men see that urhobo guy see handsome man
Madam you're wrong there ooo bcos large numbers of Nigerians were definitely not going for Obi....
Even the Northerners and the Igbo's are not that close. As a matter of fact, majority of the North voted for Tinubu....
Northerners are mostly loyal to the people they're close with, "which is the Yoruba tribe.
But how are they loyal to Yoruba when both tribe fought often?
@@Southernview3k Mr man it's not a new thing because in the long run even good friends sometimes fight each other in order for them to get along well.
But in reality the people that have always been the problem of the Yoruba's are the igbo's simply bcos only the igbo' tribe can tell another tribe that their ancestral land is a no man's land, Or Igbo parents lying to their young ones by spreading false story about how the Yoruba's betray them which was actually the other way round.
Infact it was the igbo's that organized the first ever coup in Nigeria which got other tribe's leader killed just for the purpose of placing an Igbo general called Aguiyi Ironsi as the head of state.
But it's unfortunate that the Northerners came for their revenge some months later just for the purpose of assassinating Ironsi and his Cohorts in government which later lead to the Biafran war.
The igbo's have always been the problem of the Yoruba's right before the coup bcos Nnamdi Azikwe himself have once sorted out the help of the Northerners in order to divide the western lands into two simply bcos Awolowo took second position in the first ever election conducted in Nigeria after the British left us power.
As a matter of fact, they succeeded dividing the Western territory into two regions which later gave birth to the South South Region.
So therefore Mr man you are not in any position to say things you know nothing about.
If this is discussed with clear conscience, you know that Igbo people are pretty far enough from tribalism. They are the ones when you talk about one Nigeria, is the Igbo. They erect structures anywhere in Nigeria, businesses, togetherness, development etc. They still lose them in terms of conflict, confiscation by the Federal Government which we all know, so you guys should not convey this to Igbo that they are tribalistic.
I'm Deltan, yorubas are tribalistic
Yoruba and Benin are most tribalistic people in Nigeria.
Yariba ofcourse
U are not saying d truth remember ibo supported obasanjo that is Yoruba
Dis ibo nd Yoruba thing is what d evil cabal use to stay in power nd loot
Yoruba are the most tribalistic tribe ever liveth in Nigeria.
Yorubas are very tribalistic.like 90 percent of them
Ayo is the most dumb guy in the room, he just took a stand that his people are the most tribal because he want to be validated. Everyone one knows that the yorubas and hausas are the most welcoming people in Nigeria and that's why we have many ethnic groups residing across their states. In the east, it's very hard for yorubas or someone not from there to purchase a land and other things, that's why the east is the least diverse region in the country.
The word:TRIBE is a colonial language which should be discarded! Go and check the difference between ethnicity and tribalism. Why do GS the French, English, Scotsman, Welshman,Swedish, Germans, etc call themselves tribes….some of them are much smaller than our ethnic groups which we reduced to ‘tribes’. You people should read about cultural anthropology and differentiate between upholding you ethnic cultures and tribalism and nepotism. I think the basic problem is a poor governance structure which leads to distrust….injustice and corruption. It s a complex issue. It is good you are talking about it, but I think the approach is rather narrow….
@annefalola9278 I agree 💯,. Personally, I know tribe is a smaller group, and clans are even smaller and of family structure. I'm getting along in the discussion and following the trend, and knowing that's what Nigerian are conversant with , I just follow in.
@@Ope-fr5hu
Your statement is so silly. Do you think Igbos hadn't encountered stiff neck Yoruba person who refused to sell land nor rent an apartment for Igbo person.
You lot are too quick in shifting blame and turn blind eye to what your fellow tribe do to others.
You claimed both are accommodating and yet you fought yourself resulting to death and lost of goods and properties burned down.
In case you're not properly informed, there are lots of Yorubas, Northerners and some other South South living in the East.
Did you try buying land in the east and they refuse to sell it to you?
The there biggest ethnics tribes are the most tribalistic people in the country
I COMPLETELY DISAGREE WITH SEYE REMEMBER DURING MILITARY 🪖 ERA THERE WAS NOTHING LIKE THAT
Igbo definitely
Closely followed Fulani ,then Hausa.
Yoruba is dead blindly myopically hatefully tribalistic.
Yoruba of course
We never even start Dey pepper u yet ode
Yoruba ronu
THE ONLY ONE NIGERIA 🇳🇬 TRIBE IS IGBO😂😂😂
The Award goes to the YORUBAS, its part of their culture
Guy u lie big time
Igbos are extremely T. They call you ''Ofe mmanu and worse. Reputational damage such as ''Yorubas have no hygiene''.
100% correct
@@adetolaayodele3425 That statement "Yorubas have no hygiene" is not just Igbos that say that. I've heard that from my 2 Ghanian friends in Lagos who came to do my POP in the house. Also, another friend of mine who's from the south but not Igbo has several times tagged Yorubas "Yorubas as the dirtiest tribe in Nigeria"
I am only referring to Igbos because it is relevant to the topic. Forget what others say
Yoruba are the most tribalistic tribe in Nigeria
Yoruba
All tribes in Nigeria are very tribalistic. Fact!
Yoruba is the only tribe in Nigeria that prefers to be ruled by their tribal oppressors than a savior from another tribe 😂
😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅 lol says the people that cpuld not stand up to the geno cide happening in their back yard. Where was your power when gloria Mathews was be headed. The north are "ruling" your entire bloodline but this fool.think say na by protest and mouth.
You don baff. Inventer of dirtiness like you dey complain say another person dirty. 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
Yet igbos abound in yourubaland and all have run away from their oppressors in the east
@@okangba1oppressors in the east ? We don’t even look to government bc the federal government gives our side no funds. Everything we do is on our own thru private business. We are in everyone else’s land bc we dominate in business nothing like running away from oppressor 😂 our only oppressor is Nigerian government stop lying to yourself
Yoruba are more tribalistic
Slow down girl, why are you such in hurry and rushing the conversation? You talk to fast. not good for a host.
She no get plenty data ni 😁
I travel everyday to Nigeria via nollywood. From this perspective, IGBO people are more tribalist.
In reality the lack of green pasture oportunities, bad social experiences turns most of us into tribalists bcz tribe is where belong, second to family.
African countries are not nations. African countries are regional blocks, which includes dozens even hundreds of nations like Nigeria. No country have managed such diversity before the end of colonialism making it challenging to Africa get some sort of social and national stability. The solution is a marathon race not a sprint bcz we have been dealing with each other for so long most of the time in wrong maner.
Yorubas are the most tribalistic bunch in Nigeria, even the youths are not as different from the old ones
Hausa is most tribalistic.
How is hausa tribalistic???
Hausa isn’t tribalistic persay they like you as long as you’re Muslim
Hausa are very welcoming, just don't mess with their religion.
You guys are talking as if there's only three tribes in Nigeria. How do you assemble only the Yoruba's and be discussing tribalism? Disappointed!
Lols ...we know the people that stopped others from voting ...we know the people that burnt peoples businesses in lagos ...but nobody wants to talk about it ...MC olu whatever is not an igbo ...you all make me laugh when u talk about igbos as tribalistic ...lets not come here and pretend .. I'm igbo but i have good Yoruba and hausa friends ...but lets know who is marginalized and who is not ..
Stop hiding the truth because it's your tribe, everyone in Nigeria knows who is more tribalistic.....
It's very clear
Pointless and baseless, bring topic that will unite us, this kind of topic will always breed bitterness, the most tribalisi tribes are the three major tribes even you the presenter can't say the truth
This show is usless its not balance, where is Igbos to balance the show
