Yoruba will never insult, claim host’s land
The Yoruba people have been described as one of the most peaceful non-indigenous ethnic groups in Port Harcourt, Rivers State.
In a statement on X on Saturday, Nwo Diali, a social media influencer, stated that people from the ethnic group do not insult the indigenes of their host communities.
He mentioned that they do not have a clandestine “expansionist agenda,” but rather, “they just quietly do their business while respecting, integrating, and living in peace with their host.”
Now Diali’s statement reads, “Yoruba people in Port Harcourt just want to buy land and build private schools, do their unisex salon, taxi, slaughter market, oil and gas, and mama-put businesses, take good care of your car as expert mechanics, go to work as bankers, build houses they live in, and give you big, big meat during their Owambe.
“No claiming of their host’s land as theirs; no bragging and boasting of building the city and insulting the actual owners; no expansionist agenda. They just quietly do their business while respecting, integrating, and living in peace with their host.
“Another thing I must add here is that all the Yoruba men and women I’ve come across in Port Harcourt are so big on humility and respect.
“They should keep up with it; that is how to live in a modern world and in a culturally pluralistic society like Nigeria.”
