Gerrard59:I guess poverty has completely blocked your sense of reasoning. Firstly, you don't know anything about me and why I bought my car (if that's your problem) secondly, you're daftly quoting out of context: the topic was about finding internal happiness. If you're so dumb to not understand, scroll up and fill your empty skull with some reasoning. Bonehead. |

Gerrard59: You have stated that ‘Home is where you make MONEY and find HAPPINESS’. That’s fair enough, hwvr, we all get to a stage in life when we realise that there’s more to life that those two ephemeral and temporary pursuits in order for one to have a fulfilled life. Our purpose in life has to be related to what is willed for us humans by the Creator and Giver of Life…..otherwise we would be living like the Biblical Prodigal Son. We all must strive to ascertain the true Purpose of our existence and to live our lives accordingly! |

oluwaseyi0: Yeah sure I get all these. But looking at it, technically guns cannot kill on its own except when wielded by someone. That's why they say guns don't kill but people kill people. I remember when DMX used this line in the movie Romeo must Die ). Anyways, even though I believe they should be some levels of restrictions as to gun possession, I still think they are some advantages to what the US is practising. In fact, in Nigeria some people are beginning to acquire guns for private use to protect themselves because even though they are restrictions and laws against arms possession in the country, many still acquire them illegally to intimidate others and carry out their nefarious acts. All this being said. We cannot still compare the destruction guns cause to what nuclear weapons can do. So in my opinion you shouldn't say because anyone can easily own gun in the US then everyone or country should be allowed to possess nuclear weapons. Like the saying goes, if humans survive world war 3 then world war 4 will be fought with sticks and poles. Do you know why? It is because of the level of destruction the world would experience. Humans may become extinct. Do you think this is because of guns? No it is because of nuclear weapons. These kind of weapons should never have been made in the first place. And now that they have, the world should be doing everything within its power to ensure it is in as limited hands as possible and for more not to be produced. 1 Like |

Gerrard59:From your post so far, you are convince not living in Nigeria, neither am I trying to convince you. The southern kaduna security issue you speak about is usually occasional. Not on everyday basis. I have a brother living there with his family and he has never for once flee his residence due to insecurity issues. There are specific places there having such insecurity challenge. Even the UK, you speak about, aren't there any insecurity issues in some places? If you say no, I will dig up ten from just last week. |

Athemisia: Try get conscience na...over 40 people were butchered few days ago. The killings have been reoccurring across Kajuru, Kachia, Zango-Kataf and many places within the past seven years. Even journalists who have tried to dig into the matter either have their sources mysteriously killed, or they (the journalists) are almost murdered. Recently, David Hundeyin did a documentary on it. Meanwhile, the governor has been brazen in his words and actions towards the people. To you, it is nothing to worry about. Also, throughout my earlier posts, I did not mention the UK, so I don't know where you got that from. Additionally, I don't need you to convince me. From the responses so far, there is nothing a rich person enjoys in Nigeria that cannot be replicated in Ghana or Namibia. None whatsoever. I don't want to be convinced about the killings in Northern Nigeria (I have written about it and even have manuscripts waiting to be published). So your gaslighting cannot work on me. Many Nairalanders have tried the same and failed, woefully, to add. Man! You lots are incredibly wicked and cruel, just like your elites. No sense of sympathy. Yeah, your brother has not been attacked (assuming your tale is true sef); thus, everyone else can go and die. I fear who no fear una. I am willing to bet that you support Tinubu. BTW, how does Tinubu deek taste like when you suck it? What about El-Rufai's cum, is it delicious and yummy? I am a big fan of swallowing cum, so I am interested in knowing how cum taste like from people who suck preek for a living, even on part-time basis. Athemisia: Then you go on to bring some stats trying to make it look like Nigeria is safer than the UK. First, more people have been slaughtered across Nigeria within the past seven years or even a decade than the whole of Europe (excluding the effects of the pandemic). Worse still, the manner these people are hacked to death is like those in failed countries or near-failed status (dem Somalia, DRC etc.). So, it is out of place to compare both countries. The average Brit lives longer than his Nigerian counterpart, crime rates constitute a part of life expectancy calculations. Also, developing countries tend to be pretty unsafe, however, unlike Nigeria, the elites in many developing countries do their best to reduce the crime rates as much as possible. They might not deter burglary crimes, but they will not allow some regions to be obliterated simply because their brothers who live there are not affected. That is the difference. 4 Likes 2 Shares |

Athemisia:yen, yen, yen, see your mouth like buhari own... at least it's gun violence bothering the US? citizens get to defend yourself.. but in nigeria people are butereched (not killed) but butered in their sleep, they cant even engage in violence to safe their lives because the govt doesn't permit citizens to defend themselves but to wait for the cowardly and slow military who will only arrive when you're dead already or dragged into the bush by terrorist...

AngelicBeing:/ Why would you contemplate moving to Nigeria permanently? That's just a fantasy for many until they return to realize that the Nigeria they left is way better than or still the same with the present Nigeria. A trip to Nigeria is therapeutic. It reminds one of why they japa in the first place. Like a shock therapy. When you go back to your adopted country, you will appreciate it more like the first time. Those who think Nigeria is fun are those who come in during festive seasons and stay for about 2 weeks. I dare them to move and stay 6 months in Nigeria. / 1 Like |
