CookieBrown:You are a very shallow thinker that looks at symptoms. But I'm not a straight like thinker like you. I look at root cause. Nothing happens for nothing. One thing leads to another. Foundation is what matters most. When a bad foundation is laid from the onset, it's very hard for a building and it's component to stand together. Think about it |

kpaminose: A typical African that blames his failure on another person. I know the history of this continent and it's contact with the outside world to know that for the last 400 years, African elite have been conniving with the Europeans to cheat Africa, for their own benefit, and that trait has not left you people yet, it's still there yet the west is blamed for it |

fallout87:. Why won't they attack you? What kind of stupid comment was that ? I saw that thread and the innocent girl was just being an entrepreneur who choose to work with her hands rather than become a slay mama or a prostitute... That she used some gucci or versace logos on her shoes does not make it right for you to insult her... When she made them, did she come to tell you that they are the originals ? Did she convince you so ? What would u say about the chinese company that creates Range Rover and other vehicles look alike at cheaper prices... Will you call them fake vehicles... Guy shut up... Nigeria is made up of 99% honest and hardworking citizens who want a government that delivers for them... I hate it when at the mention of the name NIGERIA, all stupid people think about is corruption becos a few individuals messed up...abeg make I no vex for u o... 1 Like |

When you're stuck in traffic for 3 hours straight on your way to work, one thing leads to another and Foundation is what matters most 4. When you eventually lose your job, one thing leads to another and Foundation is what matters most 5. On your way back home, when the police beat and harass you for bribes, one thing leads to another and Foundation is what matters most 6. When you finally get home and there's no food in the house, one thing leads to another and Foundation is what matters most 7. While hungry and looking for food in the fridge, power goes off and you hurt yourself. one thing leads to another and Foundation is what matters most 8. When you decide to become an armed robber to rob your neighbors, one thing leads to another and Foundation is what matters most 9. Finally, when caught and sentenced to death, one thing leads to another and Foundation is what matters most '' The only thing the average Nigerian is really good at, is blaming others for their misdeeds'' |

bencarson007:Which truth? That Africans like to sell their birth right for bones for hundreds of years or what? All these exploiting they do with connivance with our idiot elite, why don't they do same in Middle eastern countries too? Like say Qatar, Saudi or Oman? or UAE? BP was close to bring kicked out of Abu Dhabi because of a minor thing; that they would have gotten away with here. A lot of scan foreigners do here is because we have Nigerians who benefit from it. Look at the government agencies that should check standards? They are all compromised It's a sad thing to see that in 21st century, Africans still reason this way |

candy: I cringe in my heart after reading this nonsense from Nigerians, forget being patriotic, the owner of that article wrote trash that shows someone with little knowledge of what he is writing but the painful part is Nigerians agreeing to what was written. You might be thinking you are rational by agreeing to that trash but in a broader sense you are profiling Nigerians probably your children for future attacks that emanates from article such as this. All Nigerians aren't that bad so also other countries citizens. please, next time you feel you want to be rational, please keep Nigeria and Nigerians out of it. |

Ugosample:. @UgoSample, we are a 180Million people in this good nation... But you just mentioned less than 10persons who do scam and I bet you can't get me up to 5,000 cases of fraud on the internet that are Nigeria related or perpetuated... So do the maths... Is 5,000 persons significant out of 180million persons? ... The answer is a BIG FAT NO... So stop supporting racist and stupid comments about Nigeria... Go and try Indians and Russians and you will know we are playing when it comes to scamming... Bros I am NIGERIAN and a PROUD and HONEST ONE...

I see people thinking they are actually "smart" by agreeing to the writer of that article but in truth it shows how low some Nigerians can go to Br accepted by the "whites" ... It is a shame that you didn't criticize the article with honesty but with sentiment of "baseless realism" .... This are the people that won't mind bleaching their skull just to be recognized as "the enlighten blacks" cos they have shed the melanin trace of blackness. |

The Nigerians who agree with this post are the idiots amongst us who always want to believe Nigeria has it worst in all ramifications.. a random survey is using the commentators here as models for statistics, how many of us here are scammers?.. what percentage are scammers?.. yet you are okay with a nuisance calling your people scammers.. so all those people at oshodi every morning are going to where they will scam someone on the internet too... Have you been to America where they sell you fake insurance, do you ever wonder why americans habe cancer all the time and which country's citizen is benefitting from the huge medical bills?.. this credit card scams they talk about are openly bought on the internet from American and egyptian hackers yet its 180 million Nigerians that are all scammers... Have u ever seen a Nigerian hacker as good as the russian and egyptian hackers?.. you said all Nigerians are scammers have you met indians on the internet?.. the royal prince wanting to get an inheritance scam is done mostly by kenyans and still you want to agree with a white fool that all your people are scammers... They there they seek validation from a ehite man you are better than because you have the i dea that everything from your country is the baddest |

thawgy: Will shut up your thrash? Just look at many threads on Nairaland and see how evil perpetrated are being supported on regular basis. The sad thing is most kids/youth visit this site and accept that these bad things are the norms when they see a lot of people supporting the acts. Were you living in the cave when a case of some secondary boys raping a young girl while their other friends on the sideline cheer them up as well as adult around the place doing nothing but videoing the acts instead of interfering until a woman eventually came to the rescue of the girl? Is that one a society? A society that supports looters and corruption? A society that supports domestic violence? A society that supports sexual assault, paedophilia and other nonsense? A society that supports malpractices in every form? You better shut up your thrash if you have nothing to say than to pour out stupid excuses from your end. Our duty is to condemn such acts and let's try to salvage the country if it can still be saved. 2 Likes |

thawgy: Lmao! I simply called you out on our stupid post especially when you were labelling people who were all for the truth idiots.. The truth is this country is messed up and to try justify these evil by comparing with whatever mess happens in another country shows how stupid you are. If Indians are rapist, does that justify Nigerians becoming one? The funny thing is in our case, we had onlookers who preferred to video and enjoy such acts rather than come to the rescue of the little girl! We have leaders, security men (Police and Soldiers) who are more or less crooks and corrupt and you dare compare that to the europeans? Exam malpractices and all sorts of crooks are found in our society even at a tender age and your foolish self is all about other countries that are equally messed up?

Ishilove:I didn't even see this post till today. . .someone I'm following shared the topic with me. I want to disagree with you and tell you how easy it is to become 'racist'. Let us take a look at drug pushing stories reported on Nairaland as a case study. It is common knowledge that most of these drug pushers caught are of Igbo extraction. Its either one Okonkwo today or one Chukwuemeka tomorrow. Now, you can deny that fact all you want if you are Igbo because its embarrassing, but it is a fact. Now, take a look at how many people make comments, sneering at the Igbo's in general. Making statements like 'Igbo's are scammers'. Even though we all know not all of them are that way. Even those who don't have the 'courage' to be tribalists themselves show their support of such crass statements by liking these posts. You see racist/tribalist posts against them with 300+ likes, where are all the 'likes' coming from? From that same perspective, try to look at it through the Author's lens. Especially since he's been the one on the receiving end of the sh*t. We're not even the ones losing money to the Malaysian Igbo scammers and we're already generalising them here on Nairaland. So imagine being the on who constantly gets bleeped over because of Nigerians. You wouldn't write anything different from what he wrote. This is not racism and is just the truth in an undiluted form, based on his own personal experience. And it would take many more meetings with honest Nigerians before he could possibly even change that perception in his head. 1 Like |
