patches689: Patrick, my delusionary friend. You never cease repeating these redundantly stale lines of yours! Seems I always manage to seat on your nerves each time I leave a comment Since World bank has given us irrefutable statistics that only 33% of Nigerians are poor, data from your own country says 45% South Africans live below the poverty line. As of yesterday, the BBC was trending south Africans crowding the streets with billboards begging for jobs like the physically handicapped You keep consoling yourself and attempting to rewrite your history in the pages of Nairaland but it won't fly. I'm sorry you have to be born to witness the Darkest moments of South Africa's history. Not even in apartheid were things this bad. Once again live with your frustrations and keep it within your borders. Welcome to the slide to irrelevance Political minion. 4 Likes 1 Share |

patches689: Do the low standards include the GDP size which is the 22nd largest in the world at over $550 billion, an Entertainment sector which contributes $5 billion to GDP, a Cement sector which the 3rd largest in volume in the world......

patches689: Everyone knows South Africa is a sad story today. Bunch of inexperienced cavemen who didn't look where they put their feet. Just 20 years after the white man handed power and the reins of governance, south Africa is already the sleazebucket of Africa. From number 1 economy for over 300 years to number 3 in less than 20 years of black rulership. From a thriving health sector to Cuba-pity charity case From bullies to whimps. Hahahahahn. 4 Likes |

lezz: So i post actual world bank data And you respond with newspaper clippings? According to world bank data: 1 out of 2 Nigerians live in poverty and 1 out of 10 South Africans live in poverty. World bank confirms. Argument over. |
Re: Who Has The Strongest Military In Africa? by patches689: 8:11am On May 27, 2016 |
lezz: And yet the data tells a different story. And our membership of G20 and BRICS tells a completely different story. Remember Nigeria has to grow its GDP by 80% to be on the same per ratia as us. Tell me - are you part of the 50% of migerians that lives in poverty? 1 Like |

patches689: I understand South-Africans are mentally hopeless, the Data provided by me is chief amongst the reasons why you are in 3rd position and we are 1st. Come back when you have a coherent argument. Nigeria has 36 states and the FCT. All states including the FCT have their budgets which is separate from the budget of the federal government. One more thing, Nigeria's tax to GDP ratio is only 5% of GDP. An additional 5% would more than double F.G's budget. Infact there is no rational for this argument, i'm not going be-little Nigeria by starting an economic argument with a country which fell from 1st place to 3rd place. Not gonna happen. You can only wail, but when the chips are down, the world knows who's boss in Africa. 5 Likes 2 Shares |

That's more than 25% of south Africans without jobs. Your comments here can't change the facts on ground in your country. South Africa is Zimbabwe bound. You know it's certain. We're watching. Just 20 years it took south African economy, security, politics, health, to melt away like pastries before an oven. In the next 20years, another Detroit.

patches689:[b]Is G20 a political alliance? BRICs? South Africa is a "brickette", that's a term used by your own press. In a group of just 5 countries, south Africa's contribution is just 2% GDP. You should be ashamed of your false sense of importance. How has south Africa been able to leverage brics or g20 membership when your president is s bowing before Abuja for diplomatic cooperation and eager to start a clean slate with Nigeria? How has BRICs helped your economy or influence? Each post you make leaves you looking stupider than your last post. Take your geopolitical lesson and learn from me: Both France and UK are in the permanent security council of the UN nation since imception. UK is also the leader of the Commonwealth which has powerful countries like Canada, Australia, New Zealand etc. But who control and dictates Europe? Germany does!!! She isn't a permanent Security member of the UN or belongs to a powerful block like commonwealth of nations. Her GDP and population does the magic in geopolitics and influence in Europe. And she dictated the pulse of all Europe! Patrick, bow to me. I'll never stop teaching you international diplomacy and power play.

patches689: Patrick can't accept truth that doesn't endorse his fantasies. It was you who claimed South Africa's poverty rate was 16%. You're the liar and dishonest , dry troll. It was you who called me a liar for staying 25% of South Africans are jobless. I have brought irrefutable proof from none other than BBC and you have no where to go than seek cheap escapism in harangue and hokum. Sorry, reality hurts sometimes, don't let her light blind your eyesight. Learn to put on reality blinders. It'll help. |

patches689:Patches is a hopeless South African looking for a way to console himself. How many times have we told you that Nigeria has 36 States and 774 local government? Every state government have their own budget which is different from federal budget. Your budget can never be 2x that of ours not to talk of 4x. Buhari didn't sign federal budget until this month but all other states have already stated implementation long time ago. Many state government have being awarding contract for roads and other infrastructure, and some contractors have almost completed theirs. You lack mathematical skill to say you almost double our trade even if I go by what you quoted. "Our annual global trade is worth $206 billion, yours a pathetic and paltry $150 billion." 206 can never be double of 150. We should be the 1 telling you that our economy is almost double that of South Africa. $550 billion compared to 320 is not a joke. Your economy may remain most diversified but our remain the largest. If truly your economy is diversified why is it crashing every month. You keep bragging about G20 and BRIC even though you only got there by mistake. Nigeria will always continue to replace you in everything just like we over took you in military ranking and economy. 1 Like 1 Share |
