All sections of Nigeria made mistakes during the civil war,i believe we should make amends now we are at peace and little progress is being made in the midst of plenty.Like it or not, a sincere sovereign national conference will tackle most of our problems.The over reliance on the petro-dollar from crude oil is really doing this country harm.Ojukwu and Gowons era are gone,it is present day politicians and their insatiable greed that is wreaking this country.

So much mudfighting, wondering why we allowed ourselves to drift away from Post. Back on track: my take on the Post is that this eating from same plate was for effect. After the Aburi Accord both parties were meant to show bonafide intention by expressing brotherliness. Very ironical that the War continued in ernest immedaitely after.

I tried figuring out what the pic is suppose to pass out as message, but i quickly realize that it doesn't change anything in today's Nigeria. Forty years after the civil war, the county didn't get any better, it got worst. Sooner or later the cesspit is gonna implode.

I can't believe this ignorant and stupid post got two likes - are you dumb or something?? Not surprised, anyway - the average IQ of Nigerians is 69! undecided

NEGRO is different from N.IGGER, cu.nt!

NEGRO means a black person!!! NI.GGER is the derogatory for black people - peep the difference, prick....

Let's just accept that you have an IQ lower than that of a toad, but if you've got eyes - you would know that there's a NLer called; Negro_ntns... If the word "Negro" were to be a derogatory word, I doubt someone as knowledgeable as Chief Negro_ntns would have used it as his handle....

Do Nigerians even read at all? - some of the comments on NL are just plain stupid... undecided
My brother don't mind so fake holy ppl. Negro is for a black person like u rightly pointed out but when he acts stupid or post crap on NL, he quickly goes from negro to nigger, nigress, nigriod, diick head nigger.

I have seen the Video: Gowon was eating like a bushman while Ojukwu was careful not to eat anything.

So, a "Brother" invites his sibling to dinner so they could squash squabbles over a meal. One comes through but doesnt eat, then his friends call the other brother a bushman for eating from the meal prepared for everyone sitting at the table.... a meal that was a peace offering.

Really sounds like someone that wanted peace from the jump! smh

aribisala0: What exactly is a "bushman" and what does it mean to "eat like a bushman". The level of Colonial dispossession is really unfathomable !
I suppose eating like a bushman means eating in a way that Europeans would not approve

Hes clearly unstable. Arrogant monkey thing.

its soo shamefull you are the only one using this nNegroes evrywhere on nl internet that can be searched and how funny you claim you live in england. Atimes i wonder if you really understand what it means and how country like america and co are trying hard to get ride of the word. you may be using it wit the thought dat u re right jst because you re black! thats not true there are people who really pass thru it and some of them still alive. Respect them!! even most site dont let ppl use it! if this was yahoo and you use it, you will have so much thumbs down that the word will be hidden! it shows you shld never use it no matter what! same thing with kkk etc. i know this is long and out of topic but i have seen you use that word many times here, a word you never pass thru neigther do ur great grand father!! if you are so angry or mad about nigeria, yoi can put ur finger on the keyboard and type monkeys or illitrates etc i promise u its more annoying though thats only what weak ppl like u can offer the country.

My dear,the word "negro" is not a bad word. Negro refers to someone from the "Negroid" race i.e. a "black person" like most people call it. You and me & all Africans & black people are Negros. Our race is called the Negroid race just like white people are of the "Caucasian" or "Caucasoid" race, Many Asian countries are of the "Mongoloid" race etc. I think you're confusing the word "Negro" with the word "Nigger." Negro is not an offensive word but it's the word "Nigger" that was originally offensive to blacks.

Wow! Some people think they know something o. Mr Shymexx...please whenever you are in America or in an Afro-American neighbourhood, use the word "NEGRO" and you will understand better from the response you get. It is either you are beaten black and blue or something. Before I say jack, you may refer this comment of mine as an insult, but it is not. It is just a fact. That word is not being used anymore and do you know that Afro-American or African American is now being used in place of Black American. So please, let it just be within this thread or nairaland and even try to adjust so as not to use such words again. Sincerely....

In as much as you are correct with the definitions and so on. For your information, that word is no longer used in the context of what we are saying here. If you are talking of race, fine. But anything that has to do with RACE is being used carefully and not just anyhow. For example, you cant just say "See these caucasians" or "Negros" or "Mongoloids"..it is already sounding derogratory. Negro or Nigger whichever, you try using it in America and you will understand that what you have just said here is a definition and you will not be looked at with favourable eyes at all. It is not used in expressions anyhow again. Let's just learn this.
