Mrs.Chima: Well actually there are some other differences. Liberia was foundered by Americans, Sierra Leon by the British and Cameroon by the Germans originally, but they maintained ownership only up until the end of WW1 when they lost it to the French. So Liberia and Sierra Leon are English/creol speaking, while Cameroon is primarily French speaking although a small portion of people, in the North and south west of the nation speak English do to their proximity to Nigeria. There's more but I'll stop there. |

Mrs.Chima: He does seem to pop up to take the time to complain about your comments posted on most of the threads you've responded in on this place. Kinda odd for someone who's claimed not to be following you around. 2 Likes |

Blyss: you ask me why i say you have a chip on your shoulder. it so obvious. for one you and i didn't start off as "friends". you've never hid your deep belief that AAs are superior to other blacks...not on your Kony account and certainly not on your MandingoII account (if that was you) but in the post above you make little remarks that show this. How can you claim those African lands were "founded" by foreigners when there were already people living there? if you are talking about the formation of the countries then i can understand...but those lands were already inhabited thus couldn't have been "founded". 1 Like |

Mrs.Chima: ignore him. Blyss: not sure why its hard for ppl to stay away from ppl they claim not to like. but since i will never figure that one out, like i told chima, i'd just ignore them till they stop. |

MsDarkSkin: Well I thought it was pretty obvious what I meant, but if not then, yes, I was stating that they foundered the Colonies in which in turn became the current nations. It's kinda common sense. |

PAGAN 9JA: She might also be implying that because Gabon is not heavily populated (1.5 million people) and have large quantities of oil they might be persuaded or manipulated into accepting a proposal such as this in the name of "defending" their sovereignty from larger, more populous neighboring states. What Bliss needs to understand is that small underpopulated countries like Gabon and Equatorial Guinea are 1) under the geopolitical sphere of influence of larger countries like Nigeria and Cameroon and 2) even in those countries the governments are under pressure from marginalized indigenous groups and lastly 3) the China factor |
Re: Your Thoughts On African Americans Moving Back To Africa. by Yewe2011(m): 12:16pm On Mar 03, 2013 |
The idea is ridiculously foolish. The fact that Bliss wants an American state on African soil barring the indigenous peoples who have lived on the lands for thousands of years is nothing short of racial apartheid. Your desire to exclude the natives makes it hard for me to believe all that other talk you threw in about wanting to help Africans at a later point in time after your little settlement got off and running. Why would anyone believe you will help those you are planning on excluding? Another thing..... Who's to say these "returnees" are even genetically African anymore? How do we even known Bliss is "Black" with African ancestry? Should All in all, the fact that ideas like this are still present in the minds of Blacks in the diaspora says that integration project has failed. 4 Likes |

success_07: i love tot trust people but i dont think i will on this one...blyss could b anything. His tots can b antisocial or for advancement but definitely ill-timed. The reason AAs come here is because Nigeria is one of the few countries (along with Ghana) in West Africa that speak English as an official language. Many AAs don't speak French nor have the desire to learn the language in order to communicate and dialouge with Francophone Africans and this usually means they are ignorant about what's going on in French speaking African states as well as unlearned in their history. 1 Like |

@yewe. I mentioned CAR cos e said they - AA will prefer that region. The only place I can suggest to him for d fulfilment of his dream is in the north btw northern niger, west of chad, east of burkina faso, south of libya, morroco and egypt. I can even champion the cause for him... But in central africa, no way...make him go look bush |
