How To React To people Accusing you Of Using the French Flag As Profile Picture by creamyzone: 4:03am On Nov 17, 2015
If anyone is accusing you of pasting the french flag on your profile, please ignore them because they are all bunch of hypocrites. How many of them are even in tune with the insurgency in the stated african countries and now they are claiming to be patriotic. Why compare france to countries where violence has become the norm. Terrorism is a strange thing in france before the "charlie hebdo" attacks and this is a G8 country. Even here in Nigeria, most people still see boko haram as a north eastern problem. When some prisoners were to be transferred to FG's prison facility in the east, it sparked a tribal protest where buhari was accused of intentionally bringing boko haram to the east(can you imagine).


Facebook has the sole right to integrate any trending news on its platform so don't accuse them. We africans are too divided along ethnic and religious lines, so I don't blame americans and europeans for not supporting us. When the US offered their special intel, they backed out after discovering their plan to bombard sambisa forest was leaked to the BH soldiers. Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Russia, the United Kingdom and the United States are all members of the G8 so whatever affects these countries reflects on the whole world. China, mexico, brazil, india and south africa are now considered members too and called the Outreach5. French is also the official language of many african countries so its just natural to show sympathy to their colonial masters; and for some of us who have family members in france there is nothing wrong in using their flag as profile picture.



When we africans start appreciating ourselves and become more charitable, then the world will notice us. Terrorism is not a religious thing like most africans think but a global issue. At least now "mark zuckerberg" don massage una ego small. Please we can decide to pray for any country we like so people should just stop this envy and comparisons haba...

Oga pls read my post carefully and stop using abusive words please. Some of us have relatives and siblings in france. France is not just any country. Its a prominent member of the G8. Even you when did you ever show any sympathy to boko haram victims on facebook or other social media platforms. Do you know there was a massive match for "bring back our girls" in france just to support nigeria. Please sit down and think deeply and kindly read my post again. Thank you

LOL. @eghuan1. I can see that you are a real comedian judging from your comment. You know there's a difference between knowledge and wisdom. For the three of you I quoted, I think you lack both. All of you are also not logical in your reasoning because you think with your emotions. Did you read the part where I said some of us have siblings and relatives in france. Changing your dp or profile picture is a choice and facebook didn't force anyone to do it. Mark zuckerberg has also humbly explained reason behing their motive for action.


Ignorant and myopic nigerians. Tell me when did any of you ever show sympathy for the insurgency in the north east or any other african country. Everyone is keeping to their geo-politcal zone. You will hear them say things like "I just thank God BH is not in the south west" or "thank God igbo land is safe and if buhari tries to bring these BH prisoners to our land we would retaliate" or "we know south south get militants at least they no dey bomb like boko haram". What a selfish attitude from most nigerians and now we are showing envy to our brothers in europe. Do you how many black men died from the attacks. I repeat and I will say it again. France is not just any other country whether you accept it or not; and in africa our leaders have failed us which is why americans and europeans don't take us serious.


@funbox. When the US offered to help us tackle boko haram tell me did our govt cooperate with them. They planned to gas up sambisa forest, next thing they found BH soldier putting on "gas masks". So tell me how did they know, its obvious some rich politicians are the ones funding BH just to destabilise GEJ's govt. american soldiers were very frustrated and they left. No wonder they call us the 3rd world and dark continent when most of you don't think with your brains. Tell me despite the frequent bombings in borno and other parts of the north east, how many nigerian promote this on FB or twitter with exception of the "bring back our girls" which received world wide acclaim. So my point is stop comparing terror attacks occurring in different countries because no human life is more important. France is not just used to this type of violence just like the 911 attacks on the US by osama binladen. I will say it again whatever affects countries of the G8 reflects on the whole world and france is a prominent member. Until african leaders become more sacrificial and think about the "next generation" unlike the norm here where they think about the "next election", we africans will still remain 3rd class citizens anywhere in the world. Blame our leaders not the US or facebook.

Those western worlds are egocentrically parochial against other worlds most especially the Africa. For a long time I have been listening to BBC news there has never been an occasion a positive news is carried about Nigeria. There was a time BBC reported a fake news that scores of people have died of Cholera in a town which is a stone throw from where I lived then. 5 minutes on ground investigations then revealed there was nothing like that, only 3 people were hospitalized and were even doing well.

What of people that their families lived in bornu and had booming businesses There.
Colonial masters my ass,what is the final result of colonialism? Even at that was Nigeria colonised by France? No what is just your stupid argument why you should think a man should neglect his burning house to chase after rats?
Former Governor of Bornu who was a senator in the last administration went home last year and what he saw made him shed tears..

The china that you are referring to today that they joined the world powers... They did so by looking inwards and minding their own business!!! Cos they realised no one cared about them when natural disasters hit them every now and then.
I pray one of your family members get to be a victim of boko haram.. They that loose not in your brain will be adjusted angry

Op. You have valid points. People can support whomever they choose to support in their moment of pain. It is what makes us human.

However, what I noticed was the speed with which fellow Africans were willing to show that support for a cause that remotely touched them while the carnage in their own backyard was being reported daily.

Hypocrisy, you might say. And I would agree with you too. It just sickened me that one life was valued more than the other by the people who were closer to death.
