HellVictorinho:

BigBashiru thinks blacks are inferior to whites because he supports a corrupt government that he refuses to blame for Nigeria's doomed economy.
He has been blinded by inferiority complex so he can't see the achievements of blacks in science and technology.
Nonsense and ingredients.

Individually blacks are equal to whites and can even sometimes appear superior.

It is a group of blacks vs a group of whites - groups of blacks are always retrogressive. This is because black people are unkind to themselves... few days ago I bough bottled water, it had taste, I returned it. The woman that owns the shop said: "don't disturb me I'm not nestle". If you are crossing the road with leg in Nigeria motorists increase their speed instead of sowing down. I can go on and on - these things reveal the heart of the black man....

What are the achievements of blacks in science and technology?? Which of their achievements did you learn in secondary school alongside faraday and ohms law.

May cries of woes pain n agonies such as this never depart from your household.

Yoruba to the world anytime any day.

Wetin concern your lineage with Flutterwave.

You tribalists living vicariously with other people's achievements are so silly. Successful people of tribe 1 and tribe 2 are more connected to each other than with less successful members of their ethnic group.

In other words, a successful Yoruba man would rather be connected to a successful Igbo man than with urchins like this who are "proud of their lineage"

They are disunited.
Not retrogressive.
They don't exist as a team.
They just make up a race or a distinguishable part of the human species.
The union is false.
In fact,they are neither progressive nor regressive.
They are not really one.

Please which black scientist's law did you learn in secondary school alongside faradays law and ohms law??

It was the white man that laid the foundation of modern maths science and technology - Fourier, Laplace, Einstein etc while the black man was busy having sex, kidnapping themselves and living in mud huts.

Any "contributions" of black ppl today is just applied science.

The professors that should be researching and discovering are doing sex for marks lol

It's not just about laws.
Science and technology goes beyond that.
It's not every discovery that leads to a law.
Besides, Benjamin Franklin said every neutral body contains an equal amount of positive and negative charges.

Nairalanders Congratulate them as Nigerians and stop being tribalistic for once in your miserable lives! This mentality is the reason there are so much disunity among y’all. Y’all better start seeing everyone as Nigerian and not one particular tribe!

You talk in general terms - mention specific inventions of African blacks not those that have gone to a white built USA and have English sounding names like Loius Lafayette

They exist.
Google it.
If Google says they don't,then Google is lying.
There are Nigerians with inventions.
But you should know that it's not just about inventions.
Blacks are involved in every aspect of science and technology.
I hope that English is not too difficult to understand.

Blacks are contributing to science and technology everywhere.

Yes. It's because the Yoruba culture forbids such.

A wise saying in Yoruba land says "Ti isu ẹní bá ta, a a f'owo bo ní." Meaning if your yam tubers grow really big, you simply hide it.

Mehn, whenever I think about this when I was in sec. school, I would be saddened.

I still don't understand why our great fathers failed in that direction when God has given all men an equal playing ground.
