He’s more than a sadist. He’s just another slowpoke with no expectation. Why won’t we complain about bad governance. What can we be proud of? The issue is not about BIAFRA, but just about our collective expectation. High insecurity, high unemployment, poor standard of living, dilapidated infrastructure, increase in corruption and misappropriation of our collective resources etc. FYI, despite high standard of living in America, they as well complains about every of their government irrespective of the party.
BTW, why can’t Nigeria let BIAFRA go of not that this government is benefitting from the amalgamation?

At times, you don’t have to dignify some individuals with responses. Either they have little expectation, or benefiting from the failure of our country Nigeria or they are just dumb. What’s working in Nigeria? Please educate me.........I currently live in Qatar.


oluwaahmed:


Such a useless statement from a man whose country is officially the poorest in the world, especially when most of those poor people are from his region. 8th largest producer of crude oil in the world but also the poorest nation in the world. The country is so poor that Venezuela is disappointed in it. A country where 50 million graduates are unemployed. A country where all the middle class are leaving to Canada, USA and UK. You don't even understand how fûcked Nigeria is yet. If most of the young working class people all leave the country to the West, whose children are going to turn around the fortunes of the country in like 30 years time? Is it the children of the millions of poor people? Or that of the politicians?

Now I understand why your life is bending....did the ex-convoy specify the people he was referring to? It is shameful that your people are part of who he was referring to.

Sense should tell you that when you ELECT a government into power, DO NOT COMPLAIN when they misbehave, SACK THEM! You are responsible for those who you elect as leaders

Nigeria is a failed nation.
Same Government feom the onset jst rotation im d name of APC & PDP

The government fail to provide basic solutions to its people.
They dont promote creativity & innovation amongst the youth.
They dont critically think of d future.
A country blessed in every way, so lazy dey rely on crude oil.

The Europeans do dia trade hia in all matters.
There government promotes start ups dats why u see products with family names hia in Nigeria go to supamarkets or malls nd see dem.
Switzerland for instance export more cocoa products but they lack it not as much as we have it hia. Nigeria is a country that its business should have spread tru out Africa or around west African region but d europeans n americans economy still reach out to our neighbors.

Security is poor.
Electricity ova d years cant be constant.
We still fix roads
Substandard products wen we have Onitsha market and co claimimg biggest in Africa.
Universities work with old curriculum and bendable lecturers
Police seem to have forgotten dia jobs, they cant kill dia self for you.
Ethnicity isnt slowing a bit yet wen we travel out we cry of racism.

Youths now indulge in Shitty things nd our leaders do same but hide under the political umbrella.
Nigeria refuses advancement thats schools in the UK, AMERICA have RESEARCH PROGRAMS in various schools to understand and menace in dia environment.

Now tell me will you kill yrsef for this country?
Nigeria kills dreams
2 out of 10 lives dia dream except you are rich. Na we get highest number of immigrants both legal & illegal.

Shoodboi:
Andrew Young's statement sums up the problem of this country. It is obvious that he is very aware of what goes down here.

Hear him out:



This part is very true. We are all mad in this country. Right from the politicians to the masses.

The ones that vote are mad because they always vote based on their tribal affiliations and the little change or food distributed to them.

The ones that do not vote are also mad.

They are often the most educated and most affected by terrible government policies. They complain the most on Facebook, Twitter and Nairaland.

But they refuse to vote and instead leave old people, Almajiris, beggars, uneducated market women, villagers and people who sold their votes for three cups to garri or vote based on tribal affiliation to determine who rules over them.




I seriously doubt if we are up to 200 million in this country. I won't even be surprised if we are not up to 100 million.

How many Nigerians are there? No one knows. Not even the Nigerian government.

State governments are fond of including nonexistent people to their census figures just because they want to collect more money from the FG.

The FG looks the other way because it only organized a census to siphon money and not because it really wants one.

Just like the 2006 census when we were told that Kano is more populous than Lagos.

Kano?

Everyone knows Lagos is the most populous state in this country.

The UN knows, the US knows, the EU knows, Nigerians know, Lagosians know, the Kano state government knows but the Nigerian government does not know.

We are all mad in this country. All of us. Including me and you all reading this.

Mr Former Envoy, you lived in Nigeria for a long time and you became a Nigerian politician. Your comment didn't emanate from an honest heart. You are aware Nigeria has never been blessed with good leadership since the federation was compromised by the military. Would you be glad to say amen to this prayer: may God grant your country Nigeria's kind of leaders?

If you are not helping to make it right then stop complaining about it being wrong... Our leaders are corrupt, the government is not doing the right thing, people are dyeing, no job, no electricity, insecurity...etc
Same complaints last year, years before that, decades ago. Our ancestors complaints & convinced themselves that they are not the problem & did nothing. Here we are, their generations, still wallowing in complaints & blaming... We are in democracy because we didn't like the military regime, we don't like dictatorship.. We all want to be free people without restriction, we all want to play part in decision making & progress of our country.. by electing our own chosen representative not the one imposed on us by the military regime. Democracy gave us the chance to choose our leaders base on our principles, vision for a great & prosperous country we all call home.. Your representative is working against your interest, take action instead of whining again and again

We thank God for this good news.

However, Andrew Young should note that such perpetual complains are always coming from just a greedy section who are never satisfied with their fair share. They have been complaining right from time immemorial because they prefer to get more than their fair share

Example, Nigeria is blessed with crude oil, but they are bitterly angry that other sections of the country benefit from same oil as much as them, even though they have none while sections where this oil is deposited don't even make noise.

Even this good news, they must complain about it, it is in their gene to always complain.

if the Americans and the British reject any presidential candidate,then it means that he is the right candidate because he will work for good of his people against Americans interest.
they will foist dictators over africa and Asia and even open account for them in Morgan Chase bank to siphon away our money and then turn around to talk about corruption.

What an educated, political illiterate Andrew Young happens to have turned himself about Nigeria in the two decades? Shameful he cannot read Nig.'s Constitutions since 1966 November for him to see untruth federalism and obnoxious, toxic political environment as bane of Nig.'s problem. And as such pass that to his evil train in Obasanjo and the military bandwagons always humiliating Nigerians. Or let him keep shut and remain such an illiterate to his grave.

So in essence I meant we have never had a people govt, otherwise we wont be scrambling for Visa even as at 1979 like you claimed.

This man said the whole truth the problem lies with Nigerians. Unpatriotic and tribalistic. And you my guy is indirectly fanning the embers by tribal bashing by sarcastic comments on a particular region. That my guy is our main problem.

The moment every Nigerian should irrespective of tribe and race should try and do something great for Nigeria. Shun mad dogs like Nnamdi Kanu, Asari Dokubo and that mentally challenged idiot that was arrested by the UK government not long ago. Shun divisiveness by some useless government officials using religion to achieve their blood thirsty agenda. When we bond together say no to corruption. Maybe we will have a little chance.

It all starts from the leaders. When the leaders encourages a functioning system, it will whip the followers into compliance. I have been privileged to see and live in different continent and that statement is not to spite you. If for instance those wire wire guys that were recently caught in USA happened to be in Nigeria? What do think would have happened? We don’t have a functioning system. Do you know that Aregbesola has a fraud case instituted against before he became a governor? What happened next? What of Timpre Silver, Appabio just to mention a few. If our baba Change or integrity means business, governance should start from his team, afterall, he has nothing to loose again having reached a well advanced age. Some said they don’t want to belong to Nigeria again, why can’t you give them a voice and conduct a referendum for them? Must we be together forever if our amalgamation is not working again? Don’t let us deceive ourselves, the records and reports are there, Nigerians are not better off than 2007 era. Come to think of it? It will take eternity to get electricity, good roads, functioning hospitals , jobs etc in Nigeria. Young man,pull the wool of your face and be sincere for once. Can I tell you the truth this evening? Being a Nigerian has robbed you of a minimum 10 productive years of your life. Which means, if you are 30 years and still struggling with all basic things of life, an average Brit or American or Canadian would have achieved such when he or she was 20 years.
I wish you all the best in your follow follow way of life.

Don’t mind the old man, he is senile. If Nigerian government can do just 3 things that everyday Americans take for granted, I bet you 90% of the complain will cease

1. In America there is light 24/7 ..... give us light like America and Nigerians won’t complain

2. The US gives her citizens food stamps to buy food as they search for work. Oga, do this for us and we won’t complain

3. In America it is the law to treat anyone who walks into a hospital even if they don’t have a dime or insurance. We can’t complain for this

yes for the past years i have had no rest from day to day from getting stoned without even taking any drink to unseen persons exposing my natural reflexes with repulsive words very close to my ears so as to always have me pay attention to them as they rubbish the living soul out of my body to them talking out of my nostril as i take breathe at quiet night even though they wouldn't let me sleep because they also direct tens and hundreds of mosquitoes at my head and legs and these mosquitoes also talking out the same murky words the same way a few voices talk inside my mouth when ever i manage to get something to chew once a day, for almost a mouth now they constantly working on my saliva glands to water my mouth so that i should spite up to 10-20 times an hour even in the nights unless i swallow them, yes my throat is also remotely controlling itself to swallow them, now my muscles are playing tricks on me as it is opposing itself moving me like robot unless i fight back which i can't anymore as there's a voice that follows saying "wu fua" meaning "just die already" there is also sending me terrific dreams like feeding me feces when ever i close my eyes and i forgot to add they block my ear, the holes between my throat and nose and tighten my gullet whenever i swallow saliva go that i hear it splash back as some unseen air inside my stomach attack it and a voice follows saying "mumu" meaning "idiot" - all these and many other physical stunts happening at the same time nonestop for years and the worse part it has demoralized me and stopped my income and benefit and drained my credit cars so that i am without help, support , God, parent , security , values , etc this is what our government is doing thanks to the british and american influence
