So we should compare Nigeria to somalia or Benin republic or south Sudan or Liberia? Nigeria needs to step up its game and if you compare yourself with the worst do you know what you get? Yes nothing better. A student that compares himself with the best will still get something good.
We need to have the will to be the best.
Japan n China did n now they are almost if not the best.

Did a 5 year old write this? Did the fuel price drop overnight? I smell bush.

Yes. It happens all the time.

thesicilian:
Nigeria may never get to that stage and the sad reality is that Nigeria & Britain are not the same. So stop comparing.

Which country this 1 come from? How do u know when u are overcharged when majority of d masses don't have prepaid meters but pay whatever bill PHCN decides to give them?

MrProducer:
This is Nigeria.This is Africa. We are black people.
Just understand this fact...
That thing is never going to happen here, whether it's 2050 o, 2100. Never ever.
And y'all waiting for Nigeria to develop, keep waiting.
Population of 180m and largest economy in Africa.
It will never ever happen.
We'll only manage but we'll never get there.
The bitter truth.

Ps. Don't quote me.

You spoke putting your brain on hold. Who are you to say "It will never ever happen"? And what senseless, baseless and contradicting point did you give; "Population of 180m and largest economy in Africa"? What's the population of China?

What has being black got to do with doing what's right and being honest? Is your own brain black while theirs is white? Is your mind black while theirs is white? Stop being stupid! This as nothing to do with color/creed/race! It's about refusing to sell our birthrights when the opportunity shows itself; refuse to be an Esau, who reduced himself all because of porridge!

errr... it's actually for both, mainly for cooking though cos most houses in the UK use electric heaters!

. My brother why saying Nigeria and Britain cannot be comparable? Is it because Britain colonized Nigeria or what? Do yo knew that this naija first practised free education,free health and having television station more than many countries in wester world, Late pa Obafemi Awolowo did these when he was premier of western region. During the free education and free health program Obafemi Awolowo was sued to court in Switzerland because they don't want him to practice it but he won the case,this is what we called a great leader with a great vision. If to say we have good leaders Britain suppose not to dey do yangan for us. What do they have when we talk of minerals resources nothing they only depend from taxes from citizen and stolen resources from Africa. British colonized USA but can they compet with America? Our bastard leaders failed us that is what that guy meant. Naija is a failed nation.

Exactly, and as a matter of fact, comparing Nigeria or any African country to Britain or any European Country is what I don't know how to compare with.
Europeans realistically took us in slavery to develop themselves for good 450 years, and started Technical slavery from 1815 up till 1914, almost 100 years, and later started academic and indirect slavery called colonialism and you are over there comparing.....mtchewwww

Quoting Ur intial post about Slavery.

Slavery didn't originate with 'whites' nor did
it end after it was outlawed in 'white'
countries. For example, Muslims began
buying and selling large numbers of African
slaves 600 years before Europeans did and
continued to do so until at least 100 years
after. The prevalence of 'white' slavery is
also rarely if ever discussed. Between one
and one and a half million white European
sailors and residents of coastal villages were
enslaved by the (Islamic) Barbary pirates.
This included many from Britain itself,
particularly in Devon and Cornwall. These
and other aspects of slavery are rarely, if
ever, discussed or debated because it
doesn't fit the anti-white agenda. Neither
does the fact that it was black (African)
tribal leaders who, during military conquests
of other tribes or states, captured and
enslaved their fellow black Africans then sold
them in the slave markets to the highest
bidder. With slavery being such a lucrative
business wars were often launched with the
sole purpose of enslavement in mind.
Another source came from within the
enslaving societies themselves. Just as Britain
disposed of it's convicts, heretics, debtors
and ne'er do wells by sending them to the
colonies so did the African tribal leaders by
selling them as slaves.
