Sadly, I agree with you!


Not just Detroit, Soweto in SA, Jamaica, Haiti, etc. Why can't we have just 1 or 2 or 3 purely black nations doing exploit like European countries, so that other black nations can look up to them as example

We keep saying Nigeria is a mess because of corruption and bad leadership, but despite corruption in Ukraine, and Yugoslavia and Estonia, and many other East Europe and Asian countries, they are still advancing and doing exploits in their nations.

Serbia and Montenegro are sworn enemies who hate each other cos of ethnicity difference and they fought for so many decades but still you cannot compare Serbia or Estonia with any black nation on earth!


Black race have a fundamental problem from the origin of the world, and the only way out is to look inwards and begin to find solution to that natural weakness of the black race as a way of seeking for liberation.


Black dominated cities in US are usually the most crime ridden, why


Gabon and Equotoria Guinea are small black nations with so much crude oil and gold, why are they still a mess of a country despite having small population with lots of mineral resources I am sure if Gabon or Equatorial Guinea were a white or pale skin country, they would have been Paradise where all blacks will be struggling to migrate to go enjoy already made goodies as usual. Its a shame, I do feel ashamed of the black race most times, we lack creativity, we lack technological innovation and the ability to create something from nothing like white race angry
I share your sentiments, bro. And to add to the list of black dominated areas of the world that are retrogressive, I like to point you to the aborigines who were the original occupants of Australia, but are nowhere to be found today 'cos, I guess, they could not keep up with the pace of development which the whites brought. Hence, they crawled into the bush. I have said, again & again, that there's something about the black man which they're not telling us. Why is it so hard to organize ourselves, and move forward as a people like every other race? Now, having said that, I do not agree that we are intellectual inferiors to other races. I was amazed to discover that blacks are responsible for some of the major inventions in the world. Some of the brightest minds in the world are black-skin people. What we lack is that ability to organise ourselves, and I believe it's borne out of hatred for one another. Hate is our problem! Given the right environment(which we lack), the black man will excel. Why do you suppose that the average student here in Naija suddenly becomes a guru once he goes abroad. I'm saying this cos I have friends like that, who were considered dunce here, but today they've become profs abroad, and are garnering all sorts of accolades. Even as an individual, I have some inventions which I've perfected over the years, and just waiting for the right environment before letting it out. Years ago, a good friend of mine, who is exceptionally good in maths, came up with some mathematical concepts that could help solve some societal problems. He searched for a platform to express what he had discovered but none gave him a chance. Somehow, he ended up at NTA, and guess the condition they gave him? They asked him to go buy a blackboard, and some chalk. Needless to say, he left dissappointed and started writing to some white guys abroad for assistance. I don't know how far with his discoveries because it's been so many years I heard from him. So, you see my friend, there are potentials here but the majority here are wicked! We don't like one another! Maybe its the skin color, I can't tell. The matter taya me sef sad

..says Nigerians live in fear

Former Acting National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, Bisi Akande, says every Nigerian lives in fear, warning that a nation that remains like this may celebrate its 60th independence anniversary but will never celebrate 100 years.

Speaking yesterday in Lagos during the public presentation of a book, “The Bisi Akande Phenomenon?” edited by Lai Olurode and Dhikhrullah Yagboyaju, he said Nigeria was most enjoyable 50 years ago. The former governor of Osun State stressed that it was high time Nigeria examined its laws which he noted were “military decree-based”. He said he believed in restructuring as being advocated in some quarters but restructuring is difficult in Nigeria.

“The phenomenon of the country must be examined among three things and the first is our education. It seems to me that our education is colonial. It ends in literacy without numeracy,” he suggested. He said education of Nigerians in every community must be science-based to advance the technological base of the community. He said, “Secondly, I think our laws are military decree based and these military decree based laws cannot be used to sustain democracy. As long as we use these military decree based laws, our democracy will never prosper.

“Thirdly, our religions are mostly imported and because of that, we seem neither to be good Christians, good Muslims or good idolists. We merely live in fear and when there are problems, we have no laboratories to go, so we retire to churches and mosques for vigils. “A country that remains like this may celebrate its 60th independence anniversary but will never celebrate 100 years.

I think until all these three are looked at and addressed, or let me use the word; restructured – I believe in all these ethnic and political restructuring, but they are difficult to restructure.”

You are absolutely correct, that inability of the black race to lead themselves to advancement and mutual/collective development is the major natural weakness of the black race.

Black race suffers from the problem of selfishness and mutual hatred for one another.

Once a black man survives and takes care of his immediate family members, the rest of the world can go to hell for all he cares and this is the reason black leaders and people in positions of authority loot public fund, engage in bribery and all manner of corruption.

That is why whenever I hear people say Buhari is fighting corruption, I get so angered because Buhari himself represent corruption because again tribalism and ethnicism which Buhari is the father is the mother of all forma of corruption in Nigeria and black African nations as a whole.

Buhari deserves to be in jail not in leadership, that's if Nigeria was a working nation with majority of sensible people angry

This man, his book and his editors are cowards lacking courage and the will to face the challenge of resisting subjugation and stifled competition such that make 1999 Constitution the pressure cooker of injustices and foulings to Nig.(ns) and the nationalities. That is only for the local colonialists to fester...

This is so true.

ETHNICITY / TRIBALISM and RELIGION shenanigans are the 2 main things that may not let our nation truly celebrate 100 years.
Our politicians have used that to divide us for many decades now.
And the youth still refuse to use their head to free their selves from that evil shackles.

But, we will always remain positive about our nation and we will still be around to celebrate 100 years of our nation 40 years from now,
So shall it be in Jesus name for us and for everyone that want to witness that glorious day.

God bless Nigeria.
