Blackdisciple:
So after taxing us what do we get in return it's just a simple question

AragonDragon:
Good day my Nlanders. I'm planning to buy a car but am confused. I'm a 9-5 person and I spend 800-1k daily as transport fare. I currently have 12 million in savings. The car am eyeing is Camry 2014, dealer is telling me 11.5 million. If I use 11.5m that means I only have 500k left. I'm confused weather to go for the car or not.

Botragelad:
Doesn't change the fact that natives were complicit and participated heavily. Why don't you blame them the same way you cry about the whites all day? 🤷🏼

Botragelad:
My point was that natives were complicit, that was the whole focus of my statement. Or did you miss that? Glad you agree on that.

Botragelad:
Quit being emotional.
The slave trade was a transactional enterprise, not a political treaty. Europeans didn’t “buy goods” they bought humans, often sourced directly from African Kings/rulers who captured and sold their own people . If a car salesman profits from selling stolen cars, do buyers owe the thief a “thank you” and a nation-state? 🤷🏼

You must be aware that European traders weren’t in the business of empowering African societies, they were exploiting them. The slave trade enriched them. Africans who sold their kin weren’t “partners”, they were accessories to mass atrocity.

Blaming Europeans all the time is funny. As John K. Thornton notes, African rulers “tortured and sold their kinsmen” to Europeans, making them active architects of the trade’s brutality. If accountability applies to Europeans, why not to African elites who profited?

If your so called African leaders at the time were just “sellers” in a “simple trade,” why didn’t they negotiate for, say, technology instead of guns and trinkets?

Now people say Europeans “owed” Africans independence, how come post-colonial African nations (not Europeans) create borders, dictatorships, and corruption that still plague the Africa? Expecting “independence” from slavers is like asking a drug dealer to fund your rehab.
Take responsibility.

Botragelad:
Your black brothers captured your kins, tortured and sold them off. It was a trade for them. Stop crying and complaining about something you actively participated in! 🤷🏼

Why not say all Muslim should stay at home

Wizzy13:
My ex girlfriend who wants me back just confessed to me of sleeping with my best friend during the space we had before we finally broke up due to long distance.
She said she did that becos she was looking for emotional support. Am shocked, nothing in this life can be hidden forever.
Some friends are not friends

histemple:
This is probably a rumour sponsored by Burnaby to convince people that he is not into men.

Otherwise, the entire story doesn't make a single sense.

Maria96:
She recently reached out to me to ask if i was single and wanted to link her sister to me to marry. Mind you the sister still dey Nigeria o. In my mind i was like you reject men based in Nigeria but want me to marry your sister in same country. Nawa. She is currently unmarried but has two kids now

Love800:
Residential buildings pay tax? You mean private family homes pay tax to government?

babaireti:
Scammed because of kiss? Are you a sex-maniac? Marriage is not all about sex, and for hygiene sake, let her be, use your mouth for something productive and healthy, not exchange of spit and bacteria, put your tongue on your hand and smell the spit it left on your hand, then you will appreciate the position and preference of your spouse

nairalanda1:
Not exactly. Those are Nigerians registered by the JTB. Which is a portion of those in formal employment.

Most Nigerians are in the informal sector. Many informal sector workers do 'eat fine' while many formally employed workers do not because salary too low. And vice versa.

The JTB does not register and tax many of the Nigerians in the informal sector. That is why at the end of the day, a lot of potential revenue goes uncollected. Unfortunately the informal sector is the majority of the Nigerian working class.

"........Mr Akinpelu’s asylum application was subsequently denied “on grounds of violating human or international rights due to his past employment as a police officer in Nigeria.” A judicial review of the matter upheld the denial......"
