No blacks are not coursed but Fulanis are, they remained the reason why Nigeria and indeed Africa in general are still in this conditions.
This is why you remain cursed- looking for who to put the blame for your backwardness.

There has been no progress-rather we have retrogressed.Ask your parents- the 70's was the best time period in Nigeria's history. We had one of the best education systems in Africa, the politicians we less corrupt,we were not world reknown for 419 and being a fantastically corrupt shithole, the naira was at par with the pound sterling and dollar. Also, Nigerians were not risking their lives thorough the Sahara desert to get to Europe.
Nigeria still had moral values-corrupt politicians were not worshipped like they are today.

Yeah,I get your point- but its not as if we had much better humans then.Much of the societal problems which have worsened from then are the results of urbanisation coupled with limited resources for a much larger population.

Why no mention of epidemic corruption as the root cause of all our problems. Our politicians are looting money to buy $40 million dollar jewellery(Diezani) buying $35 million dollar private jets (Tinubu), buying Rolls Royce and other luxury sport cars worth millions of dollars (Dino Melaye) and your saying it is because of urbanisation and limited resources for a large population.

Your statement, that Nigeria has made no progress, is incorrect. So the answer to your question is NO. Africa is developing so is Nigeria. Nigeria's culture of pessimism has blinded you to the reality. I don't know how old you are, but the improvements are glaring, especially if you were around to witness Nigeria 20 - 30 years ago.

Nigeria needs to develop the necessary systems to keep its leakages in check. All countries are corrupt, humans are corrupt by nature. Nigeria's biggest problem has always been competence. Get the best minds to run the country, and you'll witness the development and progress you so desire. But sentiment seems to get in the way of that, that's why someone like Buhari can become president, despite being uneducated.

There are there no financial controls in place. How can politicians loot hundreds to billions of dollars with ease.

Africans like to misbehave in their continent-but watch them follow the law when they get to London. Even though the demographics of London is changing it will not have any effect, except the increase in crimes.

There is nothing wrong with demographic change as long as they abide by the laws of the land and they help the economy.

There's far more Asians in Europe than Africans. For every one African, there's around six Asians. In London, there are more than double the number of Asians living there, than Africans.

Africans are actually a minority minority group in Europe. The West just loves to obsess over Black People, and as they obsess over us, Asians slowly takeover.

We top the crime statistics and number of illegal immigrants that is why.

No we do not, were there any Africans on the streets of Germany molesting German women? No, they were all Arab men, likewise in Belgium, Netherlands and various other countries in Europe. In fact, there are many reports about crimes committed by Arabs, primarily, in Europe.

As I said before, it's because Westerners tend to have a black obsession, which has nothing to do with crime. It's not as if their obsession started in the past couple of decades.

So, this is just a big misunderstanding. Nigerians in Europe are not one the largest illegal immigrant population.

He is not making any sense, all races were scattered when the Tower of Babel was built. Blacks should stop trying to find excuses for failure. Botswana and Rwanda are the only two countries poupulated by Blacks that are making an effort to show the world we can run a functional society.
