sleek_p: I don't care where u live,u are not nothing but a dumb ass peasant. There is a saying that goes this way in my place-Some nobles and their slaves were on a mission to a strange a land,before they left,the slaves begged the nobles not reveal their identities to their hosts as slaves and the nobles agreed. On their way it pissed down heavily from heaven and they got wet,so on getting to their hosts place,instead of the slaves hanging their wet cloths on the line to dry like the nobles did,they chose to dry them on fire which inevitably revealed their identities to their hosts as slave because drying cloths with firewood is what slaves do. You are what you are,not even the best educations and privileges in the world can change a miscreant. |

@posters and all his supporters Before I go on, I would like to make it clear that I am a full blooded Nigerian though I hold a British passport. I am as patriotic as anyone living in Nigeria. We really need to use this forum as well as other similar fora to engage ourselves in meaningful discussion on how to make Nigeria a better place for all of us to live. Nobody is happy in deriding Nigeria or all our people living there; its only fools who will jump into conclusion rrhat by critising those in power and who are responsible for the precarious situation in which we are will condemn us for speaking the truth. Or perhaps the poster is one of those in power disguising as a nairalander. I have three of my siblings living in Nigeria, all graduates, all unemployed, and you are asking me not to rebuke the system that refused to do anything about their situation. I work 16 hours everyday to be able to cater for them and our ageing parents back home. If most Nigerians back home should be thinking like this poter, it means the psyche of the average Nigerian has been systematically destroyed by our political and religious elites. |

redsun:jst got the words out of my mouth. walakolobo:You know what? By their speech we shall know them. I dont need you IP address neither do i care where you live or what you have achieved in Nigeria. B4 coming on NL to spilt craps you would have sat for a min and ask yourself, how many other Nigerians have the same opportunity you are having? The opportunity of being in UK and living on the money from Nigerian. Probably your parents are bouyant enough to send you abroad where you eat boost of their investment , for you now Nigeria is the best. Have you thought of millions other Nigerians who cannot even afford to send their kids to school? Have you thought of millions of families who spent their last kobo to train their kids to university, only to remain unemployed at home, becoming more liability to the family while he was supposed to be an assets? Like i said b4 keep living and enjoying your fools paradise, but when i complain abt Nigerian i complain bitterly becoz someone can not spend so much to train a graduate in country where he will still become a liability after graduation. |

The poster is deluded in thinking that any criticism of Nigeria and it's bad political/business/religious "leaders" amount to unpatriotic and don't see how he can have "support" among any well meaning NIDOs. Why not stay put in Nigeria (to manage your legal investments)if you really love the place so much as you claim or you're scared or robbers/kidnappers/NEPA? No matter how well we make it "outside", we are still Nigerians whether we like it or not so for someone who appears to be doing nothing in the UK, now I see why you really can't get the passport because your "Nigerian business" might not count there I represent Nigerian all the way but can't stand the folks that has brought it down plus I have to support folks there too like most of NIDO, the fact that you don't have no one to support in Nigeria is fishy at best This emperor has no clothes! |

You see the kind of utter nonsense people come and post online. A guy comes online, says he's making money in Nigeria, and living on it, in the UK. And he says he loves Nigeria? Total crap. I wonder why people even bother to respond. |

Waka, You are absolutely right about that. In the land of milk and honey kidnapped by a few so that many can suffer to death. What is there to be happy about?We need to stop fooling ourselves, come together and get solutions by throwing out these few bums. You will see their children and PROs everywhere trying to maintain their status. Petty jealousy wil get us nowhere. walakolobo: |

though i dont totally agree that these people 'feel sad when they see happy Nigerians', i feel they have a problem with being patriotic. u would be amazed what these some of these diasporans say about Nigeria on the internet. it is okay to criticise the govt but these morons destroy anything nigerian. WHY? BUT i appreciate the diasporans who take on the corrupt govt of the day through online blogging and demonstrations. |

Jaybee2412: you should ask them to get a job, any job no matter how "below them" it might seem. Even if its only teaching. There are far too many people back home waiting on handouts from their overseas relatives and not wanting any job that's not commensurate with their "status" eg oil company. And of course lets not forget many are waiting and hoping for overseas visa which they're assured will come any day so why work in an "embarassing" job. |

No disrespect to the Diasporians, to each their own. Whatever floats your boat is cool. God's blessing is what matters. Accept my apology. |

Jaybee2412: ogajim: What more do I have to say. Guess the above 2 posts have said all that is in my mind. I am as Nigerian as anyone living in or outside Nigeria. I am concerned about the state of Nigeria because Nigeria is my country. If I criticize anything in Nigeria, it’s because I desire change. I will love to retire into Nigeria of my dream, die and be buried with my ancestors, and hope that my children will forever be proud to be called Nigerians. |
Re: Diasporians Are Sad When They See Happy Nigerians: Why? by sleekp1: 9:32pm On Nov 18, 2009 |
ogajim:I run a business in Nigeria and have invested in real estate, and if this is how your brain works you would have nothing to return to in 20yrs. (Did you say you live in Nigeria or Europe)? You just contradicted yourself there because that's my position. People still make it in Nigeria in the midst of all the chaos. There are lots of people here who make valid criticism and they are to be applauded, my gripe is with people who are having a bad day and logging on to pour scorn on Nigeria. People like your idiot self, those who believe the govt is to blame for all ills in our society. |
Re: Diasporians Are Sad When They See Happy Nigerians: Why? by sleekp1: 9:48pm On Nov 18, 2009 |
redsun: Admit it I burst your bubble by letting you know I emigrated when you were in JSS 1. Why should I pour scorn on those I left behind because I was lucky to have left when I did? If you morons think cleaning offices in the UK is an achievement wait till you return in 30yrs to find some of those you left behind CEO of multinationals. |

sleek_p: You have the guts to publicly say you lived in a foreign land for twenty years,u are really colo.If i were u i will be smacking myself everyday for wasting the peak of my life playing second fiddle in oyinbo land. Yeye man,your time is over,probably your children are lost too in transit as british africans.Being a stupid man,i know u won't be able to nurture them to know their roots,a vicious circle of doom. |

Rofl. . . Walakolobo, you live abroad? Hypocrite! I hope Afam and the other "patriots"will learn from you |

You guys at home are simply silly and envious, I got good news for you all, aint there nothing to be envious about. You all at home are doing just fine!, Taking America as an example, Living here is harder and anyone can imagine. You must work hard to smell the dream or you will be a dream chaser. And there isnt any easy work here in America, the system has been set-up that whatever field you find yourself only serious hard work can make u smell the dream. So when people say we are sad when Nigerians at home are happy, thats simply untrue and silly. If Nigerians (including our families) at home were happy and able to help themselves that takes off the extra burden of hardwork to support them off our backs and gives us hope that we can go back and invest our income no matter how small, and put and end to excess hours of hard work. Dont get me wrong we wanna work, but putting in excess hours of sleepless hard work is killing to the body. Many of us miss home, the food, the people and some of us who married Americans truly miss Nigerian Women born and bread at home. Not the Jankara Nigerian women who came here and started acting like wannabes. Same goes for the Nigerian women here who misses home bread guys. However one of the few things we enjoy apart from the facilities is security, not that there isnt crime here!, but I know that if I m killed or shot either by the police or any individual, it will be vigorously investigated and the person responsible will pay for it dearly. That tells me my life is not worthless. I can speak for myself and I will tell you I dont like it here!!!! So pls lets stop the fighting and work together for our common good. |
