My British friend visited Nigeria for the first time this January and he said "the greatest hidden secret in Africa is Nigeria" because Nigeria seems sooooooo bad from the outside, no thanks to those who hate everything they themselves have contributed in destroying. I also noticed the only topic a Nigerian wants to discuss with a foreigner are the perceived failures of Nigeria and I have seen where foreigners have had to describe a worse situation in their own countries. Washing your dirty linens outside should not be a form of entertainment.

@adedehinbo

Less than 2 months today you were crying and seeking for people's opinion on how you'll live your life with your less than 200 dollars salary. Today you are insulting a whole tribe because you want to echo the sentiments of a colonial master? Are you serious? Are you serious? Smh

Please let's stop taking this ipodians and the wailers serious, they don't see any thing good in themselves and this country. That is the mind set they have to the extent that they can do anything for sudden wealth and at the detriment of lives and their own.

It took an outsider to let him know the greatness that abounds around him.

excuse moi....the diplomat rantingvis he not enjoying a steady air conditioned lifestyle with a salary 1000x above the minimum wage in the country ?why wont he be so happy and see nigeria frm a rather different view?
Re: UK Diplomat Disagrees With Man Who Said There's Nothing Great About Nigeria by omsal84(m): 6:49pm On Jun 01, 2017
For all of you commenting, what exactly did the diplomat say is good about Nigeria? It's not enough to simply say Nigeria is good... tell us how, when, where and what area is good and can be compared to other developed areas in the world.

seriously Nigeria is in its current state because of tribal bigots like u and ur kind. cant you guys on this forum ever make a comment without using words like ipods, afonja, etc?? its so unfortunate that this forum is now a breeding ground for tribalism especially from the so called youths who claim to be leaders of 2mao, and yet we keep praying for peace and unity. I think the mods should start hiding comments with such words.
God bless Nigeria.

We have finish our hopes and faith long ago. Nobody should be making political statement for us again. Nigeria remain a useless country.
Re: UK Diplomat Disagrees With Man Who Said There's Nothing Great About Nigeria by SycophanticGoat: 6:53pm On Jun 01, 2017
The diplomat should come live here permanently. He should also make sure that his place of residence be Benue State - Zaki Biam precisely, then I will take him serious.

You can't tell me not to call out a country without electricity and good roads, and plagued by: unemployment; abuse of power by politicians, police, army, navy, etc; terrorism by Fulani herdsmen, boko haram and APC-chibok; nepotism; tribal and religious bigotry cum crises which almost always result in loss of lives; corruption; ritual killings; fraud; drug peddling; armed robbery; kidnapping; rape; militancy; etc.

If I don't scream at the top of my voice about the ills but rather hypocritically say things like "Nigeria is great" and all that then I'm definitely deceiving myself and will never put pressure on the people whom are supposed to ensure there is change from bad leadership to good leadership.

Sorry white man, I don't do hypocrisy!!!

Which mumu shame, when he came to Nigeria did he feed from hand to mouth or stay for a week without light, face police brutality.

Only a Nigerian can say what Nigeria really is, we all know Nigerians respect and treat foreigners well so all he is saying is from a foreigner perspective.

Na we get the country na we knw where e dey bit us.
