he was 17 years not 12 years!

tellwisdom: A white old man ran away when i sat beside him some time ago on transit...was he mistaken me for Nigerian politician??

sakaguchi: All this classification, they are relative, if Obama had been born in Nigeria, he would have been looked on as a white dude..."OYINBO".
But then forming prejudice for once person based on color is simply shallow, especially when the meeting in focus is a gathering of "supposed cerebral individuals". If like the lady said that Obama was awkward and out of place, then I see a jaundiced opinion from somebody who is suppose to be an erudite, so him been black now makes him out of place in an academic symposium? Would he be out of place if she had seen him in jail? Sometimes I truly wonder if what we preach and what we expect the world to be is not out of tune with who we really are. Humanity has bits of racist streak in them.
Zimmerman murdered the boy, a situation which initially started from him being black.
Obama was looked down at as a waiter because he was black, and somebody who tries to preach against prejudice herself confirmed that obama was "out of place...awkward".
The Vatican while wanting to be international with the members of non-European catholics outnumbering their european counterpart brought to the world an European white man in diaspora.
Mohammed is the messenger of Allah and he has this universal appeal because he is white, if he had been born in Potiskum, we will only know of him in African history text.
Jesus Christ is the Son of god and this appeal is Universal because he is white, T.B Joshua is looked upon with surrepticious glances because he is not white, had it been he was an Italian, he would have had a world appeal and mojo.
Akon sang and sang Classics but he can never reach or not to talk of eclipsing Justin Timberlake.
If Enya was a Kenyan singing her weird song, nobody will know her outside Mombasa.
Obama (being a minority in USA) can never be the president of Nigeria if for instance his mix race is from a White woman and a Gwari/Nupe/Idoma/igala Itshekiri Man.
If David Beckham was a Nigerian, he would never had been a world star.
If Okocha were English, one could only wonder what his career would have been. We need to re-shape our inner selves, still in the 21st century, premordial streak of RACISM still hang loose in our Purine and Pyrimidine DNA strand. Humanity has a long way to go...

Jakumo: Watch how a person relates to subordinates, or to those percieved to be of lower social standing, for that interaction is a more accurate and honest index of character than is the manner in which the same person relates to equals or superiors.

hammedkola: In 1999 Thomas Muller was a ball boy at Alianz Areana, but in 2012(13 years later) he played as a striker in the Uefa Champions league final at the same Alianz Arena.... Everyone is born great, but just for you to discover yourself

Saka rora ma fa igbo..

P.Stacks:


Someone comes to make a point on nairaland, the person appears too good or too intelligent for you to match! Next thing is from ur stuipidity associate it with Igbo..

Obama is American President today but his nick name in college was Barrak O'ganja. Barrack Obama had at one point or the other admitted to Marijuana.. If you smoke and get calm and reason well, that's ur business, if you smoke and go to the bus-stop and fight like an agbero that's ur business same way u go for a drinking competition and drink 6 litres and drink urself to death..

It should be noted that when people speak on pertinent matters and serious issues, people that are either too dull to comprehend or or too lousy to bring lousy Jokes, such people should never make it to where intelligent people are trying to make a point.. Mediocre minds shouldn't be on this forum in the first place.. This guy made a very lovely and intellectual point I am learning from all for me to see an idiot like u say ko ro ra ma fa igbo..

If he smoke's igbo, how d f*uck does that affects you? Has he said anything amiss? Has he shed light on the issue on ground? Has he educated you? Does he hav a valid point or not? These are the issues..
But being whom we are, Nigerians Leaves the main Object and chase Shadows...

@Saka I am proud of you! You have educated me, you have shed lights on Racism as it stands today...

Racism is Evil.
I still believe Racism is a lesser evil to Religion.

Religion is worse than Racism..

Racism divides into Black and White and is a monumental problem till today and is being tackled world all over..

Religion divides into xtain and muslims but nobody is talking about the division caused by Religion.. Everybody is talking the division caused by Racism..

Mind you, Nelson mandela didn't fight for Blacks, he fought against Racism..

If Nelson Mandela fought only for Blacks, Whites won't be in S/A today..

Nelson Mandela fought Racism for Unity

We can Fight Religion for Unity.

pekelepekele: I am black but truth be told . There is something wrong with we blacks , which is the hatred we have towards one another . If we can start loving ourselves and stop seeing ourselves as low people to the white , I believe the whole thing about the white hating on the blacks will stop.

I produce ogogoro you know help me buy am na oyinbo whiskey you prefer but na still from me the oyinbo dey buy ogogoro take produce whiskey for you

iamswizz: Well.. Our own president was always mistaken as a:

1. Clown
2. Retardeen
3. Fisherman
4. Otuoke fishFarmer
5. Retardeen again.
