no mind dem. dem go day attack you for condemning the people way day kill dem.

many of them no just get logical brain at all. dem no want listen dem no want hear. them just believe in superstition. the other day i see two people throwing punches over ronaldo and messi. just senseless. i say, oyibo suppose come back and enslave many of us again. the only thing we day unsderstand na whip. even the politicians need better whip.

we no just fit think a way out, we just want people to guide us. and we go still day argue like say we no a better way.
doublecross:
Nigerians are truly useless especially the youths on nairaland. i don't blame the president for calling them lazy. how can you focus on irrelevant issues and abandon the relevant ones. someone made a suggestion on how to get a good president and no one made a comment. Instead they comment on nonsense. foolish people. they will still complain and point fingers at the president as if they are sensible.

Some years ago, I lived in the UK and I noticed that the buttons in their lift had this braille pins on them so that blind people can also "read" the numbers and know which one to press.

I also noticed that their transit busses were very low and had this special low door with a mechanism so that wheel chair people can easily roll into the bus.

I remember telling one UK housemate then, Ah, you guys care a lot for disabled people in your country with all these provisions. In my country, Nigeria, we take disabled people as IDIOTs.

Just like this image you have used here for fun.

If they can stop people from forwarding those useless messages, that would be great

This guy will place order for something online and put fake addresses. When order is delivered he will call that he is not around. All online stores beware

Seriously, WhatsApp really need to do more than this, I received the foolish message below from so called intelligent peeps today:

*# I Stand Against Cow Meat ##* Questions!!!
(1)Do Fulanis eat cow meat? No
(2)What meat do they eat? Ram & chicken
(3)Who eat Cow Meat? Christians
(4)Who are slaughtered like Cow? Christians
(5)Who patronize Cow business? Christians
(6)If we stop eating cow meat what will happen? (7)The Fulanis will take their Cow business to other African States and leave our lands.
(coolIf this happens what will follow? Our lands will be safe.
(9)So stop eating Cow Meat and save a life.
(10)Medically cow meat is dangerous to the health especially Adults. We have our traditional meats like Goat, Chicken, Nchi, Okwa and other Bush meats that are healthy to the body.
# Do u Stand Against Cow Meat ##
Pls send to groups

Well, maybe it is really not about WhatsApp but about people who refused to challenge their brains and forward stupid messages without thinking for once if it made any sense or not, the same sets of people that "type amen" on Facebook and "forward messages as received" to claim a blessing...
