Not all Nigerians Baba

llbhuds:

yes but [b]80% [/b]of nigerians in diaspora no dey try at all

justwise:

Now that is huge exaggeration

llbhuds:

bro I have nothing to gain by exaggerating anything
I think u live in ireland and I have been there couple of times and as wlell as other eu countries and I can say it emphatically that WE NO THEY TRY AT ALL.
Aljazeera aired a program called surprising europe and whenever a nigerian appeared in any episode,its either as a drug seller or a sex worker or an illegal migrant and this is the fact. Im not saying der are no nigerians doing well outside the shores of naija,but majority of nigerians in diaspora dey fall my hand well well.

Zainaby:

So it is safe to say that poster


"you being a Nigerian, is more of a disgrace than pride"

dell_net:

If this stemmed from Malaysia, Malaysia is a disgrace on its own. The country is a racist, demoralizing, and abusive nation. Within themselves they are racist, you will see sign posted "INDIANS ONLY" or "CHINESE ONLY" or "MALAYS ONLY" to make it less insulting they will use "PREFERABLY".

If you want to judge Nigerians judge them on a fair stance not from a degraded point of view. What do you expect from a garage boy that came straight from oshodi to a corrupt and abusive nation like Malaysia and he has access to all the tools he need? Even in Nigeria you will not hang with that kind of a person if you have some pride in you, so why hang with him elsewhere? You can't go to EU, UK or USA and do the same shlt, you will be tracked in no time. Wherever a man is left unguided he does what he suits appropriate for him.

The biggest disgrace are us that we can't fight for our rights even in our homeland. How would you expect us to be respected elsewhere?

They sit behind a computer and they complain. Point fingers and ventilate blame without thinking of something positive to redeem Nigeria as a whole.

Who gave you the impetus to classify Nigerians as either a disgrace or a pride. Are you trying to sound intelligent?  It is obvious that you are not.  It is my understanding that those who try to identify the wrongs in others are actually culprits and hypocrites themselves.  Sure, some Nigerians are engaged in illicit dealings that have damaged our image immensely. But people like you bow down to these 'big boys' in real life as sycophants. I challenge you that you don't have the guts to confront them about spoiling our image in person.  You come to a forum to lament and posit yourself as a saint.

If you think you have got something tangible to offer and contribute, come to the politics section; where real men talk in depth about savaging Nigeria and moving her forward. Show yourself in the technology,programming,economy, literature, education sections; where real Nigerians brainstorm and analyze Real issues.

In all honesty, what do you do for a living?  If you are so passionate and dedicated to stopping these guys who tarnish Nigeria's image. Why not create a website or blog dedicated to this cause? So that you can address it in depth and offer solutions. You could be appointed head of Task force for Nigerians in Diaspora; working in hand with Interpol to bring them to order. Thereby redeeming our image in the process.

Quit the talking, complaining and blaming. Start some action or show us what you have started or done.

He who is without sin, let him cast the first stone.

I wont call Malaysia 'racist' but the society is organised along racial lines. In their official document, they all indicate their races. This is partly because depend on your race you may be entitle to some privileges. For example, the Bumiputra's get to buy houses at 10% discount. Race in this case is used in the same way we use 'tribe' or 'ethnic' nationality in Nigeria.

Malaysia is not a perfect society but the actions of Nigerians there is not helping our image at all. Mind you this is not limited to Malaysia alone. I wonder which country is it that Nigerians are held in high esteem. Not even in Nigeria!!!!

   If i were guilty of this attribution, i would have been excusing and defending these disgraceful reputations like some of you here are.

some of who??
IN WHAT PART OF MY STATEMENT DID I AGREE OR DISAGREE TO your TOPIC.

You talk about disgrace and pride, 

Why dont you come home and start a revolution to change things? Oh I FORGOT!


YOU RAN AWAY!!!

Zainaby:

The problem of Nigeria is not all about brainstorming and analyzing, it's all about actions. I am tired of reading and listening to critics and analysts both online and on the screen. What we need in Nigeria is a team of vibrant Nigerians who carries the mind of fire, who possesses the heart of a lion, who has the power and the strength of a horse and not the timid set of pple who hide behind their computer home and abroad and talk rubbish. Let me say this emphatically, many Nigerians are so fearful and that is why things will never change. At the same time 70% of the Nigerians in Diaspora can never do anything to revive the glory of our nation rather than proving holier than thou whereas many have their impact in destroying the glory of Nigeria. You can say whatever you like, I don't care but don't you ever think you can right the wrongs of Nigeria with sweet talks and brilliant articles from afar, it will not work. Besides, you alone cannot do it, it requires a conglomeration efforts and actions with God's backing.



Gbammmmmmmmmm over and out

Mr--Why:


You made very good points and I like your objective approach. However, with brainstorming and analyzing, we can reach a consensus and collectively organize online just like the North Africans did.  How do you expect us to co-ordinate if we don't decipher every aspect of the system as like minded group online on social networks or forums. The North African revolutions have been in the making for years. They congregated and organized online before mobilizing. 

We are dealing with very powerful and intelligent status quo. If we are not informed and up to date with their bad policies, We will be floating without substance. We also need to raise awareness amongst our peers who don't understand the real issues instead of complaining and labeling them.

Does an average Nigerian know the longterm negative effects of our foreign reserve depletion or the printing of worthless money to prop up reckless banks who gamble with our deposits?

These political thieves are now stealing us massively with a stroke of pen or click of a mouse. We have to make the average Nigerian socially aware; that inturn stoke courage and action.

Amongst foreign people that I have come across including many Africans, It is quite unfortunate that we Nigerians are the most socially unaware group. Instead we pride ourselves in living in distant lands by running away from our problems. No matter how far you run to; your Mother's land is your ancestral land and your host will always remind you of that.

Bro, whenever you are ready for action. I am always available for it cos the madness by these men who have hijacked us for decades can't go on forever. My children and grandchildren deserve a better future in this potentially blessed country.

There is no such youth in this county. All what they want is sleep, wake-up, go to their slave site called "work" earn chicken change, eat and Be Intimate.

Nigerian youths (in which I am a part) are set of slow set of apes I have ever seen. Their leaders are their breaking cash in billions. They sit down and pray to God in Church/masalashi for miracle from God. If I were God, I would be pissed off with these useless youths. Wasted set of generation.

I posted on a thread last week on holding a similar protest to that one of occupied wall street and Egypt. Useless Nigerians were making jest of me. A lun.aatic monkey even told me, Nigeria is ok as it is, he want to enjoy his amala.

Poverty mentally programmed set of luns.

You can start it and others will join you, one man started it in Tunisia by setting himself on fire then millions followed. That was how Arab awaken started, so get on with it.

collinsfbi:

Oh boi, you are very wicked oooh lol, if you advice anyone to do that in Nigeria, mind you, if such died in the process, you will only die for nothing, nobody will mourn such for an hour. Don't forget many are engaged with hypocrisy work (working for politicians) to earn a living and don't be surprised to see your brother plotting your downfall because of money. Virtually all Nigerian youths, our minds are so corrupt to the extent that many don't mind doing anything to make money, ride first class cars and live an exorbitant life and that is why you see desperate Nigerian youth trekking across sahara desert to Europe, while some are selling their kidney for money in Malaysia and so on. As far as 9ja is concerned, that is a suicide mission, how will you go to that extent when you are not one of the recent Boko harams? God have mercy!

Protest is not dying. Although some people died in Egypt. But, this is Nigeria. Nigeria is an open place. The army cant do anything they want.

And beside this is a peaceful protest. March on the street, block all major roads. Although some criminals may want to Hijack it and start looting.

Nigeria is an open place. The army cant do anything they want.
