Obviously you have no idea. Keep deceiving yourself. The first coup was a few years after independence and you had multiple military rulers for decades and you say the country was great. I wonder when the country ever had time to be great in such a scenario? Small pikin. Dem de take picture decieve am. No be by age...Learn your history.

If only you could answer my question! If you call me small pikin, no whaala i agree with you but i know very well that you were never born when i born, which was the era that Naira replaces pound as legal tender in Nigeria and 2naira was equall to 1 pound.

During that period in the pix above, people buy new cars unlike tokunbo of today. During that period, nothing like China products unlike we have it allover today. I know you Indomie generation and you only read the bad part of history and never the good part because you are thought to look at the bad and ignore the good part.

cool Lagos b4 those immigrants from Eastside come dey do yanga,dey shitty shitty everywhere .

blame it on the civil war.... what's happening in Syria now.... is what likely happened in the east After the civil war... most of the south easterners started migrating...

The civil war is over since,they are free to go back to their 'country' instead of disturbing our PEACE here with their IPOD nuisance

EXACTLY!

Lagos ...before "they" came with their fake-this, fake-that, kidnapping, armed robbery, ritual killing and "get-money-at-all-cost" syndrome!

....and there was no Crude oil in those days (20's , 30's , 40's , 50's ) so it was Yoruba money, from Agricultural and Water resources, that the indigenes used in developing their land.



These 'lubbish-people' really need to go back to where they came from! Someone should arrange for many CHISCO Bus please

For the sake of our children we need to start a movement. The bastards MUST go!!!!

Lol. . .To give you a better idea. I graduated college in 95. So if i graduated college in 95, when do you think i graduated high school? Sinking in now? Like i said, the problem with you and a lot of Nigerians is you don't know your history and worse still is you don't learn from it. The first coup was in '66. The reason it happened according to the coup plotters was because of corruption and mismanagement. The same problems you all are facing today. So, from day one of your existence, you have had leaders who have looted you blind so how can you make progress and be great? Your definition of great confounds me. Well in a way you are right. Nigeria is great when it comes to corruption, lawlessness, graft, etc. You are using the purchase of cars as a yardstick for growth as if that is the only measure. There were a lot more people commuting with 'bolekaja' than there were people who had POV's. And for your information, a country can peg it's currency value to whatever it wants. It does not necessarily mean it has value. Let me give you another tip. Fela released his first song in the 70's and from his words you'd think he released it yesterday. The same crap he sang about then is the same thing going on today. You don't have to be Einstein to figure this out. Haba bro's wake up.

Go and read the account of Mungo Park written in 1720s. The same shitt is going on today. There is something strangely disfunctional about black people. A screw is loose somewhere in our genetic make up.

The problem is people in Nigeria just don't want to admit it. They think everything is rosy about the way they think and do business. I still cannot fathom how anyone can say Nigeria was once great even though there is evidence to the contrary. It beats the imagination.

How I wish it will be easy to de-populate Lagos state now and bring it back to its previous state?

We wl send them bak to the EAST

All you typed up there are just things of hate in your heart about Nigeria. I repeat this country was once great and soon it will return to her greatness. You never gave me any reason(s) to beleive it was never a great country like you said. I will take your opinion, but does not mean i agree with you. You only talked about political history of Nigeria because it was mainly govern by the military but you never speak about the economy of the country as a whole. I wish you best of luck in your beleive about Nigeria but i wil still stand on my word. Nigeria was once great and will be great again.

Seriously? How can their be economic growth and stability when a country is not stable politically? I challenge to give examples of countries which have thrived under those conditions.

Nigerians are too retarded to know any better or get better & keep up with the world. It's delusional. Always having to learn sh!t from a white guy. We can't do more than think like slaves. Curse of the black skin.
