Nigerians and their bigoted and hate filled minds.
I guess many children of hate view these pictures with so much disgust and scorn.
Same pictures been applauded all over the world for sending messages of hope and love, is viewed for few minutes on Nairaland
and a racist angle is drawn to it.

We as in "Nigerians " should help them with @bolded food, money and medical supplies

We should sending them Nigerian Naira or Biafra dollar,Alabukun or Paadol extra,tuwo,Amala,abakaliki rice ,please which kind weed you dey smoke ,wake and smell the coffe my dear they don't need anything from us ,as we speak celebrities are already donating dollars to the pool of fund .
There are many individuals and organizations that make it a point of habit to help out the less privileged and those in acute need, no matter the location. They have been and will continue doing so, be it in North Eastern Nigeria, Sudan, East Asia or USA. That Nigeria is reportedly poor does not mean the inhabitants are eating sand.
In life some chose to sit and wail, while others prefer to live above the economy of their immediate environments.

and ? obama was the black president and under his reign was the most atrocities committed by whites on blacks. many white cops killed blacks under his reign. please dont disgrace yasef for here. they only put black leaders there to appease the blacks but the real controllers are whites. under obamas reign we had BLACK LIVES MATTER MOVEMENT because white cops where killing many blacks

And I'm sure many cops weren't killed by blacks.

Stop viewing the world through race tinted lenses.

The mayor of Houston was an idiot for telling people not to evacuate
No he wasn't. Houston has over 2 million people and the metropolitan area over 6 million.

It would be a logistical nightmare to evacuate within days of the storm. You will have thousands caught up in traffic gridlock and invariably in the hurricane leading to more loss of lives.

Everything does not have to be about race

When will you Africans get that.
Houston is a big city (one of the top 5 in the U.S. ), and the pics you are here are just few out of many out there

Blacks were also.saved too, and we're given relief and aid materials.
Okay, let us use you people's faulty analysis....
White was saving white, why not black save his fellow black (using the crooked analysis)

Re: Photos: Texans Being Rescued From Hurricane Will Restore Your Faith In Humanity by kazy1979: 2:57pm On Aug 30, 2017
I read people's comments and I discovered many don't really know what they are saying.
1. Houston mayor told people to evacuate but only people in flood prone areas. I knew some whites that said they are not leaving their house till it got to the level life threatening situation.
2. Many blacks were evacuated in galveston, corpus christi even in houston. So if u don't see it in tour pics doesnt mean they are not.
3. Concerning looting, there was looting know some places like Tidwell area and many other places. It happen here the way it happen s in naija too.
4. Not everybody in US has that level of love/ humanity in they be u black or white. When airport, schools and restaurants turned their various properties to shelter for people, a church lied that there property was flooded so they can't open it to be used for shelter not until people started posting videoes of the church before it was opened.
Mind u disaster alert had been sent to if not all most phone number since thursday that houston will experience hurricane but Houston started experiencing tropical storm harvey on saturday morning.

Your philosophy of life is commendable,it's really in our nature as humans to help others in distress, but looking at this situation the distance is may be a hindrerance to achieve immediate solution to some of their basic needs at time like this, when we had similar situation here in Lagos what help was provided for the poor masses of lekki Ajax axis either by individuals or government I am not talking of people living in VGC and other posh estates within that locale , other poor people were affected by the flood , you only get to see videos and pictures of VGC ,Victoria island flooding the scrap media, till date I have not heard of any assistance rendered to the middle class in that local.

How can you compare a man made disaster in Lekki to the hurricane in Houston?

You dey reason at all?

Lekki's nemesis is that the drains are properly constructed, and some parts of it are even blocked due to monkey behaviour of some Nigerians.

If there were proper drains, and our people don't behave like animals by blocking the drains, Lekki would have got more sympathy

It's still a tragedy tho

If Lekki own is due to blocked drains, what of Abuja,Port Harcourt, Markudi, Uyo and other parts that experienced flooding?

You have no sympathy for your compatriots, many lost their properties and livelihoods but people like you will be sympathising with foreigners only, as long as it didn't happen in Nigeria then nature is solely to blame, nonsense

You couldn't be more correct.
Our media should bear the brunt of the blame.
We lack professional journalism (and that includes investigative journalism)

Until we sit up as a country and stop being inferior to this people, imagine a natural disaster like this and some people are still saying "no single bottle in the water ,no dirty" if we don't wake up to our slumber,we might keep on being like this.
We must stop tribal and sentimental idiosyrancies and help ourselves. We keep on Praising and glorifying these whites forgetting the fact that they have worked tirelessly for it.America and other countries did not wake up one day and meet their country luxurious and fine.
The government may not be meeting up to our expectations but can't we do a bit about ours rather than painting our country black, I still reinstate that if a youth leads this country, Nigeria will be a great.
I am a patriotic citizen that, no matter what happens to my country, no matter the hate speech, no matter how harsh the economy may be, I still stand with my country.

I Extend my Sympathy to Texans that might have been ravaged by the Natural disaster.

Stop thinking like an African monkey

See the fund raising for these victims, is it only whites raising money? or is it only the whites that will benefit from it?

Imagine calling your fellow African an African monkey. That is to show how useless you have become and how brainwashed you are. You are in chains but don't realize it. You are worse than a piece of trash and a fucking ass licker. Poor mind. Poor soul
