I am almost convinced that 70% of Nigerians abroad are suffering from a condition of amongeism! Black on the outside, white/yellowish on the inside! They come to NL and open their mouth whenever issues at home is being discussed but can't use that same smeling mouth to fight back in their various "shanties" in oyinbo land where they are classed as "second class" and/or "children of slaves"!

The fact that the pictures used in this story has been doctored and these so called african-oyinbo couldnt spot it says it all!,  like someone has already said,  GET A LIFE YALL! Cool

Nigerian in Nigeria over here, but I am still very sane! If the pictures where doctored, I guess the vids where nursed right?? . BTW If you are a Nigerian abroad do your thing I am not mad @ you, just dont forget where you are from

phreakabit:

and their upside-down country?

Common shut up dia, Your Name no be moremi? Look at this Yoruba gal trying to form whitey for us sha!

Ranoscky:

You dey mind that maggot?

And maybe when we check where she stays and thinks she's in abroad, it might be "HAITI".

am here now, you guys can stop quarreling and arguing Kiss

buzugee:

amongeism ? now you are just making up words  
smelling mouth ? do you go around kissing all nigerians in diaspora ? how do you know their mouth is smelling ?

what you call amongeism ? is actually 'enlightenment'  believe it or not some of the things that you nigerians who have never left the shores of nigeria do is straight up crude and barbaric. once you step away from the shores of nigeria and then you become like an outsider looking in ? thats when all the flaws become visible to you and you bow your head in shame. i think the govt needs to organise a program to let every citizen of nigeria visit another country for a month before returning back to nigeria ( although i know such a program would not work because all man will run and not return and nigeria will become empty   ) but yeah visit somewhere else then come back enlightened. it is not amongeism. it is enlightenment.  its amazing the wisdom you acquire when you are an outsider looking in. for example ? the practice of throwing tire on a human being and burning them alive because they stole something, this is just barbaric. but those who do it think if we condemn them, it is because we want to feel amongeism with oyinbo. far from the point. when you are outside looking in ? you see the barbarism for what it is. same with this rotten whale thing. on the outside looking in ? it looks terrible. but those of you who have never left naija just see it as a natural part of life. rotten smelly shark full of mercury and pathogens lands on the shore, oowwweeeeeeee let me go cut me a piece   crazy silly nigerians.

then because of mercury poisoning if your liver shuts down or if you give birth to a kid with 9 toes on each feet, you go come say na juju dem do for you

Omo_Tier1:

Carry go sit don! I feel sorry for most of you NIDS! You guys often think 'cos you are a second class citizen abroad with "fake" arrangee marriage papers that means you are exposed and more intelligent! utter rubbish I say!,  FYI, I have being there, and there is nothing about oyinbo life that you can convince me with! As some one who have worked among the creame la creame of engineering in the UK,France,Canada and China seen their dirty side of the daily lives of these so called oyinbos, I think it was safe for me to conclude that lots of you NIDS are truly suffering from a disease I call "amongeism". Go ask the brits why they are still fox hunting! have you been to Wales? go to rural Aberdeen and seelife for yourself! Have you been to downtown paris? Blois? Nice?, dude, like I said before, GET A LIFE YALL,   continue to listen to white man rubbish,  see how they have preached global warming sermon to the lacks and at the same time they are quickly building their industeries to mass produce the so called "climate change" goods. IF YOU THINK WE CAN CHANGE NIGERIA BY LOOKING THROUGH THE WHITE MAN'S LENSES, THEN YOU MUST BE DAY DREAMING, GO ASK CHINA AND BRAZIL, AND THEIR ANSWER WILL ALWAYS REMAIN; GROW AT YOUR OWN PACE, DO NOT LET ANYONE DICTATE ANYTHING TO YOU, AND MOST IMPORTANTLY,  BELIEVE THAT WHAT YOU HAVE IS THE BEST THAT THE WORLD HAS GOT! Finally, let our people chop their whale jare' you smelling mouth try make you first use that mouth take fight your second class status before ou go dey worry about Naija and their whale eating people

tpia@:

^^what signs of rot are you seeing because I'm wondering if we're looking at the same photo.

if you eat dried fish, you've also eaten something rotten.

anyway!

instead of all this unnecessary hoopla, what people need to be doing is identify the type of whale it was.

From that picture, I assume it's probably a baleen whale due to the shape of it's head and the dark blue colour.

humpback?

@buzeegee and omo-tier1.

I have been following the spats between two of you and l must add that TOW OF YOU ARE GOOD MEN, two of you are striking at the 'SAME THING" but from different perspective!
Both of you want a better Nigeria!
One thinks we should copy good things from "abroad".
The other feels we can be good without copying anyone and that "oyinbo" has nothing to offer us.

Well, l appreciate people like you two, because you have the interest and dignity of your country-men at heart.

On a sober mood, WE CANNOT COPY ANY COUNTRY, WHOLESALE!
Every country has its own dark under-belly.
We then must be "smart like the Chineese", COPY ANYTHING GOOD FROM ANYONE

For example, on this whale issue, there are pictures already on the U-Tube depicting Nigerians as cannibals.
I have posted a comparison below, one in Nigeria, one from Ireland.
Both occurred on the same day, its the same type of whale that were "beached". Haaba

In one scenario, some were rescued, after it became a "tourist attraction", and thirty died among them but NONE was EATEN!
In our own scenario, only ONE WHALE was beached, that one was butchered and eaten!

I remember in 2004 or thereabout, the same event happened at one of those beaches in V/I and l left my office to have a look (Never seen a "life" Whale before then). By the time we got there, it was "butcher-fest"! All manner of dangerous weapons were used to scatter the Whale!

The questions that arise are:
**Is that the right thing to do?
**Can eating such animal not be dangerous to the health of the scavengers?
**Does "poverty and hunger", have anything to do with such ravenous scavenging?
Does such image portray us as "evolution-nized" beyond the impression that our haters want to paint about us?

We need to reflect on these things without being sentimental.
We are a great nation, a great people but to truly ascend to our greatness, we need to look ourselves in the face and tell ourselves the truth.

LET US COPY FROM OTHERS (OYINBO OR ANYONE) WHAT IS GOOD AMONGST THEM WHILE WE AVOID THE BAD THINGS THAT THEY DO.

That cant be too difficult to understand, cant it?

Instead of directing valuable energy at each others throat (and we all do this occassionally!   )
lets spare it and use it constructively, together, an amalgamation of the"nationalist and the enlightened": Thats what l call "winning team"!
Now Jonathan is in trouble!

With all the broken skin and brownish water around, and with the browning of its usually white underneath and the fact that it would have probably been floating around dead for days in polluted water, it is clearly rotten. I don't know what market you shop for stock fish (whale cemetery?), but I only see dried stock fish that was killed by the fishermen in whatever European country it came from, not whale carcass.

sunnyprof:

Animal Conservation!! its not in our Culture.  

I saw this happen on Bonny Island around year 2000 also. The dead whale was skimmed to the ground, even the bone became monuments in some homes.

So this not a problem in Nigeria. Which rich person, organization or Government had time to see to such rescue excercise except there is money to share or if it is given out as Contract (for loyalty sake). We don't even have setup for such rescue here.

It is not about poverty, it only shows we like to devour free opportunities. This is NIgerian lifestyle.

Princek12:

To all the people who, by comparing the whale to eating stock fish, see nothing wrong with eating the beached whale:

You guys forget that a whale is beached either because it is dead or because it is sick, and can therefore no longer swim. In this case, the whale was dead and was smelling, which indicates that the whale had been dead for sometime. Only God knows for how long. So if, for example, the whale died about 5000 km from land, it may have taken a couple of days for the ocean current to bring the whale on shore. So, it is the equivalent of eating a fish that has been killed for days and has not been preserved by freezing or refrigerating; but we can say that the salt in the ocean slowed down the decomposition process. Overall, those who ate that whale risked their health just to eat some stinky, smelly fish. My two cents.

buttkick:

whales dont get stranded ashore only cos they died. they can loose their way due to confusing tracking signals which they follow in their long journeys in the belly of the seas. they then wander to shallow waters which might, as in this case, be the lagos barbeach shores

what are ya ? a connoisseur of whale types ?
