Not disagreeing, but saying their infrastructural development is on par with Europe is silly. Even America is not up to Europe when it comes to certain infrastructure (public trasnport being one).

DropShot:

You could have said all this without the name calling!

I don't know how people become too sentimental to think that this country will ever work. It's blind faith. I wish I could get such a faith, but unfortunately pramatism will not let me.

I do not feel bad when people refer to Nigeria as a zoo. It is almost like a zoo.

I rest my case. Talkin abt this place, this entity called Nigeria, will only bring you headache.

I refuse to blame anyone who seem to have lost hope here.

Lucasbalo:
The guy Rossikk is a notorious name caller. His first instinct is to call people names. I wonder what he derives from insulting people. You can read his posts and see how notorious he is.

Rossikk:
If you sit down in your middle class environment with phone, ipad, laptop, nice flat, education etc, and are calling for whites to return and rule you, I will call you an ignorant, disgusting little pig, not least because the modern life you currently enjoy was provided by black govts while the white rulers you worship brought your forbears nothing but neglect, illiteracy, backwardness, peasantry and underdevelopment. So go ahead. Make my day!

Lucasbalo:
You do not know of what you speak. I never called for white men to come back and rule in Nigeria. I live in a very advanced country of almost 350 million people who has a Blackman as a President. You can disagree with someone rationally without resorting to name calling . That's a sign of immaturity. No one had monopoly to Solomomic Wisdom.

Rossikk:
In your very advanced country of 350 million people, how would the blacks react to a black man who called for a return to slavery? How "mature" would be their reaction?

Lucasbalo:
Well, goodluck to you. It's 7.51am and I am about to hit the shower and go to work. Good day. No animose towards you, just telling every answer you throw out shouldn't be insulting.

BOWOTO:
The difference between South Africa And Nigeria is like "black and white"..... Nigeria should be compared to Ghana, congo, Togo..

I don't care about having the Highest GDP, if it doesn't make life easier for me then to hell with it. We should drop our ego and learn from these countries on development.

Rossikk:


Go around Nigeria and see the number of proper houses, roads, schools, vehicles, hospitals, airports etc, that exist in their MILLIONS compared to the thatched huts, footpaths, bicycles, and malnourished, barefoot children that were the norm under British rule. YOU NEED TO GET OUT MORE. WE HAVE MADE SUBSTANTIAL PROGRESS SINCE INDEPENDENCE. Heck a guy like you even now gets to be among the over 100 million Nigerians with mobile phones, and not needing to use the town crier or smoke signals, like in the days of colonial rule, when telephones were unheard of for 99.9% of the population.

forgiveness:


You are on point, if we thoroughly evaluate Nigeria's development before and after Independent.Yes. Nigeria has developed beyond what colonia master left behind. What legacy did British leave behind rather than the railway they built to transport resources to their country?

On the other hand, they came to Nigeria to exploit her, but on the other hand they went to SA with the intention of wiping away the native blacks and to build themselves a nation(annex of U.K). The same way they succeeded in wiping away the native black aborigines in Austrialia. Hence, the magnificent and impressive infracstructures in SA. What a great diservice to Nigeria.


However, i am not blind to see and to say that SA has gone far in terms of development than Nigeria. Although, Nigeria in recent times, is also developing but to be truthful, on a snail pace. Understandable(but not acceptable), the millitary rules, corruption, tribalism etcetera is/has been the cause.

For Nigeria to cas

SPOPOVICH:
u didnt have to mention SA, many countries in SSA are more devoped than naija.

and why are people bashing congo, did you see the All Africa games, i dont think nigeria is more developed than Congo.

DRC would probably be far ahead of naija if it was colonized by the british instead of Leopolds Belgium.

OohLalah:


I am a South African and do not give a rat's azz about what you say about SA, as the difference btwn our country and yours needs no discussions as it is clear as night and day.

But what bothers me is this?

Please ask again? Why do people who have never been to DRC /Congo equate Congo to backwardness?
