Elueme: You are really funny. I read your garbage anytime am less busy and at times it's difficult to comment because of the level of critical thinking, objectivity and reasoning on the forum. But suffice I say that you and some other folks have been too consistent at attacking anything that has to do with the present government but are so quick to shout uhuru when it bears on Tinubu and cohorts cum ACN/APC( it calls for suspicion). You are at liberty to have an interest but declare your nomenclature rather than hiding in the cloak of a social commentator to misinform some low thinkers like you.( insult not intended). You are not as pained as I am with the fate of our country and continent and you probably couldn't have made 1/4 th effort some of us have made to attempt a change in the polity but the Nigerian state is complex. We are making progress though we deserve to be better, you guys just acknowledge the stalk reality. Please go away and quit bothering me with your warped and disjointed rubbish, I'm sure your kind on NL are interested so save it for them. |

Rhetorics, barefaced lies! a friend just returned from Nigeria on Sunday, he thought you'll feel Nigeria's issues right from the MM airport, broken air-conditioners, darkness in areas beyond the perimeters of the airport. That was exactly what i felt and saw when i visited 2 years ago. How much does it cost to make a freaking airport work. Keep defending the indefensible! 2 Likes |

I don’t like the fact that when people mention Nigeria, the next thing they say is corruption. ^^^^^^^. Your OGA @ THE TOP is not only perpetually corrupt, he's shameless and careless about it. He pardoned en ex convict and international fugitive right in front of the world and you are still worried about the world looking at you and equating you with corruption? Look in the mirror and your OGA's face and stop disgracing yourself by lying to the world. 6 Likes |

sirfemoz: Having read the comments of my fellow citizens of this country, its now obvious that some of us are born liars/haters and lacks common sense. Some of us here expected this woman to go live on CNN and start voicing out how useless her country is. Atleast on thing i can vouch for her is that of electricity, where i stay i can boast of 20hrs of electricity daily. And so it is in some other places. If you electricity havn't improved in you area, don't come here and talk jibberish. Don't generalize it. Some of us here because of frustration and there hatred for government, they can never see anything good, and they can never appreciate anything good the government does. Lets not criticize with biased minds.Nigeria is gradually improving. Nigeria is gradually progressing. Slowly, we are getting there. God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria.Please,be quiete if you have nothing to say,are you aware Unilever plc,left Nigeria for Ghana cos of electricity? |

Saying we are all corrupt is broad generalization and ignorance just like saying 99% are honest which was a lie because no society on the face of the earth is 99% honest and spouting such declaration openly on a global TV network was a disgrace and gross embarrassment, it crystallized the fact that even our leaders are very dishonest and at the same time, she in the same breath betrayed her own comment about honesty. Sensible and knowledgeable people with good sense of tact always strike good and sensible balance when making such comment. 6 Likes |

Dike Chimezie: The definition for that I believe is intentional exaggeration which remains dishonesty. What's their to hyperbole about about corruption anyways? Intelligent response should have been accepting that there is a strong corruption problem in my country, but we are fighting it by doing this and that, by creating and enforcing this and that law, by boldly saying we've arrested, prosecuted and jailed so so and so, by saying we've removed the immunity restrictions and so on. This is the kind of honest, sane and rational answers we expect from truthful and honest leaders, but she couldn't say all that that because they are not doing anything to fight corruption in Nigeria, she didn't have any leg to stand on especially since her OGA just pardoned a fugitive and the most notorious embezzler and corrupt Nigerians. Nigerian officials need to stay away from places like CNN if they don't have anything better or truthful so say because they make matters worse when they do. You end up lying when don't have credible and sincere info about your efforts to share. 2 Likes |
