I bet you guys don't know its a very difficult task for a foreigner to pick up a Nigerian citizenship (naija passport)...

Well, you no go know, buts that's just the truth

Immigration will only renew your temporary permit for 10years or less before rhey consider you

Especially if you are white..
Nigerian citizenship is the hardest to become in the world

Please just keep quiet. She didn't give up her Nigerian citizenship to become American. So she is still Nigerian. But obviously, if she still wants to run for those post in the future, she needs to have an American citizenship.

obviously
I am not sure I know what that word means anymore

Sad. Another one who has chosen to flee instead of fight.
Another Ivy league educated scholar who could change Nigeria for the better has decided to switch sides.
This is very sad, she will be remembered as a loser
She gave up because she lacks foresight

Me and my household will never flee or beg the white man for visa, greencard or citizenship. We will continue to fight and do all we can for the betterment of this country.

Goodluck!

And may God bless your parents for giving us a wise man like you.

We Rise!

Fyi, the only Natural American's are the native American Indians, other than that... there are no natural American's.
The US is a country that rode on the back of immigration .
The "Native Americans" grew out of the soil?

My position on this woman has always been tough. She is a rogue and born to rule mentality. She admired power than anything.

Her incompetence in some positions she held was another evidence that she is overweight individual. Okonjo iwella has been use by western world to exploit Africa. This woman send Nigeria to recession and till today we are yet to recover from recession.

I have never seen a situation whereby federal government borrow money to pay workers. During her tenure no improvement and she wasn't done anything spectacular.

Absolutely 100%!

I hate the woman like poo!

Super story. Where were you when she was giving her best to the ungrateful country?

Was it Nigerians she served that also accused her of embezzlement simply because she served under the last PDP administration.

Oga, this is not patrotism, its folly.

The politicians themselves that run this country position their children to have a good life by sending them abroad, you are here talking what only you understand.

You better consider the future of your children and don;t let them wonder what their father was doing when other people fathers were sending them abroad for a better life.

All of you talking rubbish remember Oyinbo are not waiting to welcome you with open hands!

Please can you name any country that was worst than Nigeria in time past? You will just sit and open ur mouth to saying any thing. How many countries have you been to? Even among some African countries, you cant compare how they live to what is obtainable in Nigeria.

Have you ever asked yourself why the condition of things ( economy, education, security, etc) are deteriorating down from each government? I know are leaders are bad but they are not the worst when compared to other world leaders and they are not cluelesss. Still they won't succeed because this country was designed to fail from the very beginning.

Go to school, you refused. Now take a good look at yourself. I don't have to visit a country before knowing their history. Dumb educated illiterate like you don't even know that we're in the INFORMATION ERA of info tech. If you're not informed, then you're deformed!

Why not direct your anger and disappointment to your president and his family, a leader that left his country and stay in UK for more than 100 days, don't forget that his wife recently went on shopping spray in Dubai whereas they are busy preaching buy Nigeria and grow Nigeria to us.

NOI can do as she pleases after all she's a private citizen and she's owns you nothing.

Shut up, Ekwensu is already quoting you!

Tell me about the optimism in Ozubulu..... maybe there is something to learn from you.

I don’t have anything against your optimism and positive mindset, however Don’t EVER denigrate your own natural country or put down Nigeria because you want to go to Oyinbo land which will be HOSTILE to you especially as a black male.

Leave Nigeria if you must BUT don’t bad mouth your own country on your way out. Going abroad is a DEAD END for many many of our people (not all) but the fine pictures and the fine clothes are deceiving.
