Why Are Older Nigerians So Unfortunate? by tensazangetsu20(m): 5:33pm On Oct 10, 2020
Why are Nigerians above the age of 40 so unfortunate and extremely stupid. You guys were born when the British left Nigeria. They handed over a country with dreams and a bright future but you managed to ruin it and wreck it for future generations. Your mates who also took control of their countries in the same time periods have built their nations to first world status while you have generated poverty and hopelessness for Nigerians. Most millennials were born from 1985 to 1995. What did we meet? Honestly this country has been a shithole from birth and it has managed to get worst in recent years. As of last year I could cook a good meal with 1000 naira. It's impossible to do so today. How much do I make? What is the average Nigerian salary? How many jobs even exist in this useless shithole.


The most annoying thing about this failed generation is they still have mouth to talk back on the youths that the youths are the ones who ruined Nigeria. Ruined Nigeria with what. Look at the fool called myBraine. How can one person be so foolish and he thinks he's making any sense. Nigerians should be excluded from technology and embrace subsistence farming. Please name one country in the world where subsistence farming made them a trillion dollar economy which is what Nigeria desperately needs for our booming population. The endsars protest going on go and check the people against the movement are Nigerians within that age range. People that feel that you can't make any money online. They don't know the world has changed. They don't know it's possible to sit down in Nigeria and work with big companies in silicon valley and earn millions. They don't know the millions many people make monthly trading crypto and Forex. When bbnaija was showing they said the youths are distracted now it has ended and the youths are out and you are abusing them.

Nigerians above 40 why are you so unfortunate? Your mates built south Korea, Singapore, Japan, Vietnam you guys left poverty for all of us.

Actually older generations destroyed this country. those in their 20s and above after the independence misused opportunity they had to transform the country. those they were born in 50s and 60s were lost generation. they were misled by earlier generations. those that were born in 70s and 80s were old enough to see transition to civilian rule and witnessed struggle for democracy. most of the lead activists campaigning for restructuring of the country are in that age group, likes of segalink, dele farotimi, Oracle, Nnamdi kanu, Joe aba, beautiful nubia. they were fighting for the future of their children many of whom are still in their early childhood. those that were born in 90s are confused generation. in their childhood, they witnessed military regime and early civilian rule. but those they were born in 2000s are mixed generations-indomie, reformers and criminals. this generation is interested in radical change. generation of 90s and 2000s are likely to reform the country through revolution because many of them are hopeless and hustlers. they are being targeted by police as being criminals. they would revolt and generation of those born in 70s and 80s would support them morally and financially.

The 90s kids are the most resilient Nigerians ever. A generation that has had everything taken away from them. Many of us graduated in a recession, no jobs nothing. A few startups in Nigeria are started by those from this generation mind you. They also constitute the bulk of Nigerians who work in the tech industry which helps generate foreign exchange for the shithole. The older generation are a very big problem. Very unfortunate set of people.

Bro I don't understand. Why must one leave their country to make it? Why? What is funny is that many of them in that foolish generation praise entrepreneurship yet how many entrepreneurs did they produce? If they did, we would have had a lot of companies in Nigeria. Our mates in Singapore would have probably graduated from one of the best universities in the world check the ranking of Singaporean universities and would be working a six figure job. He can also travel all around the world visa free. This is a country Nigeria was so much better than. What of south Korea? A country where in the 80s beef was a luxury. When we had the oil boom they were starving. What of Vietnam? A country that had a 20 year war with the USA and just started building her economy in the 80s. Bro those people are useless. If not for my parents I for dey beat every old Nigerian for road. Idiots.

THEY'VE LIVED THEIR LIVES AND NOW WANT TO LIVE YOURS FOR YOU, AND AT AGE 30+ YOU'RE HOLDING ON TO THE SAYING THAT "WHAT AN OLD MAN CAN SEE FROM HIS CAVE, A YOUTH CAN NEVER SEE EVEN FROM THE HIGHEST OF MOUNTAINS".

YOU'RE A DISEASE IF YOU REFUSE TO BREAK FREE FROM THE CHAINS OF THESE OLD FOOLS.
ELDERS IN UK AND ASIA INVENTED THINGS FOR THEIR YOUTHS. OUR OWN ELDERS ARE EXPERTS OF OWAMBE, PALMWINE, AND PROMOTING SUPERSTITIOUS BELIEFS AND TRIBALISM.

THE NIGERIAN SYSTEM TODAY IS "ANTI-YOUTH" BECAUSE THE OLDER GENERATION ENVY US. KNOW THIS, AND STAND YOUR GROUND BECAUSE THESE OLD CARGOES WILL RUIN YOUR PLANS AND THAT OF YOUR CHILDREN UNBORN.
