Why is Scorpionking being Demonized? He made some very good Points. West Africa has always been Some-what developed, we had the Benin Kingdom and several others in West-Africa. The Only Problem was that we were cut off from other Parts of the World, most importantly China. West Africa would have been at the same level of advancement as the West and South east Asia. if we started intercontinental Trading Early. 6 Likes |

So you are all knowing about Africa's pre-colonial development even though it has been poorly excavated. 5 years ago nobody though African had the wheel until old pics had to be dug up by historians. Pope Xander VII: The Only Problem was that we were cut off from other Parts of the World, most importantly China.

Sam32: I agree with you. The OP didn't think through this Thread. What i'll call inferiority complex is when Nigerians classify a person as illiterate just because he/she has a poor grasp on English. I see no problem with an Individual with little to no formal education( or any individual what so ever) speaking just his/her Tribal Language. 2 Likes |
Re: Nigerians Have Very Low Self-esteem by PopeXanderVII: 12:31am On Dec 14, 2013 |
macof:, Not necessarily Quick exposure but absence of pre-colonial Trade with Countries across the Atlantic. That's all History though, nothing we can do to change that. What we should concentrate on now(this Modern Age) is the development of our Economy into a More Capitalist Economy. We have seen From the Past few decades that Capitalism= Growth. |

Scorpionking: do these group of People and culture look like they'll be exploring space or inventing a telephone and laptop or telescope soon? these people are dancing on top of Diamonds ,oil and Gold and don't even know it or care to know. they sacrifice little babies and kill twins. anyone can chop of your head with machete and there's no investigation or anything. The question is. Do they need to explore space , invent telephone/telesscope, etc.? Or do they continue with their simple , uncomplicate and relatively happy/content lifestyles. . |

How does learning all the backyard languages of Nigeria help me establish an INTERNATIONAL business? One can only learn so many languages before one reaches their quota. It only makes sense to capitalize on learning the most profitable languages. 4 Likes |

Re: Nigerians Have Very Low Self-esteem by macof(m): 7:35am On Dec 14, 2013 |
Scorpionking: you mean to tell me that killing of twins,tribalism,kidnapping and ritual killings are a simple,uncomplicated,happy lifestyle? why are you using electricity and computer to type your comment? aren't you a dumb black hypocrite? I don't know who grant Visas to ungrateful i.diots but I know that I would do it differently if I were in position of power. you should stay in your ugly little village and practice ritual killing and witchcraft .no one needs you in developed nations. This guy is really backward and probably living a 17th century life in calabar |
