Egyptians in the US made a protest at the UN - as in Mubarak must go.

Our own only talk but no action. They sit behind the computer and laugh at everyone but themselves.

What is wrong with Nigerians?

Could it be because they are NOT NIGERIANS?

^LMAO!

wtf would i be protesting at the UN?
most Nigerians like Goodluck, most egyptians hate Mubarak
Goodluck has been in power less then a year, Mubarak has been in for 30
Goodluck is not a dictator, Mubarak is a dictator
We're about to have an election were we can take out goodluck if we want, egyptians get arrested for voting the wrong way.


quit comparing the two countries. Nigerians can't realize what a problem is but always talk about problems. Nigerian's problem isn't a lack of overthrows, it's an abundance of confused people like the original poster

See how you yab GEJ special advisor to NL - that is a treasonable offence - 1000 hours licking GEJ bum.

Qeueu?

Is that a new word?

what are they supposed to riot about?

their original problem was with yaradua, and since he's been replaced by goodluck, a southerner, we're all happy, content and overjoyed right now.

werent you there during the tshirt revolution that put gej in power?

how many revolutions do you want sef.

Nigerians in Diaspora Those ones are not Nigerians jor. All they do is stay sit in front of their laptops and write thrash. I wonder why they are even on Nairaland sef

Most Nigerians in the Diaspora do not know what is happening in Nigeria. They sit oblivious to what is happening. They enjoy Nigerian parties, say how proud they are to be Nigerian and act like nothing is wrong.

They go to the posh areas of Lagos or go to Abuja and believe all of Nigeria is like that.

Nigerians in the Diaspora are not connect to what is happening in Nigeria. I am pretty sure that most Nigerians do not know where Jos is located in the map unless they have family in the region.

Brilliant discussion.

Ok. So, the diasporic Nigerians are clueless about Nigeria and whats going on in Nigeria? Hence they cant revolt. ok, granted. How come they are the ones that makes the most noise on Nairaland, SaharaReporters, 234next, etc?

I am confused what is their plot then.

people can talk nah.

just dont consider it more than talk, until further instruction.

they make noise because there's no nepa or phcn overseas.

What are you talking about? Most of the Nigerians who comment on Nairaland, were born and raised in Nigeria. Very few Nairalanders were raised in the West. Haven't you realized that by now?

And many of the Nairalanders who comment only went to the West to further their education. I am pretty sure most know what is happening in Nigeria.

For example, I go to a university in the U.S., but when I am not at the university, I am at my home in Port Harcourt. Do you understand now? Even though many Nigerians would consider me an "ajebutta," I still know what is going on.

ok - as in talk is cheap?

Thought the protesting originally started in Egypt and the Diasporas joined in

not true. most nigerians in Nigeria don't know what's happening in NIgeria.

as an american i have access to any piece of information in the world about anything in the world. I can tell you the temperature in Jos way before someone in an Akwa Ibom village can.

There's 3 computers in my house alone and i went through one of the world's best education systems (or at least one several times better then Nigeria's). Most Nigerians don't know anything past their immediate reality due to a lack of access to information (libraries, good schools, electricity, computers, information based television ect.)



diaspora nigerians even heard nigerian music before nigerians do now.
the MINUTE it drops, where as nigerians hear it once it's popular in their area.

First we must divide the "Diasporic" Nigerians. Which ones are you talking about?

-Children of Nigerian immigrants who were raised in the Diaspora.
-Nigerians who immigrated to the West to further their education or find a job

Those are the two main groups. You also have smaller group within those groups, such as the Nigerians who were raise in Nigeria, but they are from the elite.

Ogini?  

If you were not raised in Nigeria, you would not understand Nigeria like someone who was raised there. It is as simple as that. You can have all the technology you want in the U.S., but you still will not know what is happening on the ground.

And you do not give the Nigerian people any credit. Word spreads fast in Nigeria. It is not like we do not have the technology to get in contact with our brethren all across the nation. Most people in the villages even have cell phones. Plus, they have radios, which keeps many Nigeria wired to what is happening throughout their region and the country in general.

I guess you haven't been to Nigeria in a while.

Hahahaha. How can someone with enough sense make this statement?

Who cares if you are American or Iraqi? what difference does that make to the topic then?

There's 3 computers in my house alone

Only 3? Some of us have seven.

So? This then means they are masters on Naija matters?


i went through one of the world's best education systems

No wonder. Best indeed. We can see. Thats why there "is" 3 computers and not there "are"

@op

Next time dont open your trap to keep rubbing PDP/GEJ's azz

what has he said?

viva la revolucion viva la revolucion viva la revolucion

IMHO, Nigerians do not need to take a Qeueu queue cue from the Egyptians at this time. We have since passed that level. We passed that level when we moved from Military rule to Civilian rule. ^{Even if we havent reached perfection at least we have started} We passed that level when so many people were killed during the IBB and Abacha riots. Let's not forget so soon. That was what led to the death of those we refer to as the heroes of democracy.

Today, we should be taking a Qeueu queue cue from countries like USA! Or if that is too far, we can start from Ghana. I do not see anything attractive in what the Egyptians are doing looking at their long history. In fact they should be learning from us.

Most scholars spell it as "cue" NOT "queue" nor "Qeueu"

damn!, do we have to teach English on every thread?

LOL.

thank God the English language is not my mother tongue.

lol, i bet neither is rational thinking a family thing!

I didn't want to say anything, but I find it funny when Nigerians try to correct each other's English, but make a mistake as well.

Thanks for pointing that out to people.

Ma_J_Blige:

If you are going to speak or write a language. Do it right. Even if you are speaking in Igbo, Ibibio, Yoruba, Hausa etc, speak the language right or don't do it all.

Thank you.

thank you.

Just to take focus from the topic abi?

Kids.

LOL.

Turning a typo into an issue. Go wipe your dirty butt holes with sand paper.

Back to the topic, rational people.

I must confess, there is a part of the energy you discharge that i find quite interesting
