Northerners are the most civilised Nigerians.

They knew how to read and write centuries before Europeans brought ABCD to southerners who were walking about half unclad.

That's why Nigeria was handed over to northerners by Europeans.

Nigerians need to be taught history 101 as a compulsory course at both secondary and tertiary levels.

The north( Hausa) were colonised by Arabic Fulani before the Europeans, double enslavement

All the way to China for water.
Omo these old men no they shame sha,no capacity at all.

Nigérian roads is supposed to be built by a government company, but the inability of these old GENERATION to manage anything and not steal as made them so dependent on foreigners.

DOUBLEBARREL:
if you would say the truth and be devoid of tribal bigotry and sentiments... buhari was clueless .and all past presidents dug Nigeria into the quicksand it finds itself today.Nigeria's wealth is enough for every man's need but not for every man's greed. i repeat .. tinubu is cleaning buhari's mess albeit in an haphazard manner. you dont rush restoration when life of 220 million people depends on it. it ought to be creative, methodical and precise. not a fire brigade approach.

Cleaning which fxcing mess? When he brought in Buhari and supported Buhari throughout, tinubu therefore created the mess and is part n parcel of the mess

Government don't put food on masses table

Oga what is the work of government?
To eat the sweat of the masses?

I see many comments of people who I suspect are mainly from the major tribes on this platform who don't know that despite the numerous population comprised of mainly the major tribes ,Nigeria seems to pull little weight internationally and Nigeria is a technology and infrastructure dwarf.

Their head is fill with the giant of Africa mantra but they are dwarfs.

Low IQ dwarfs.

Nigeria doesn't have levels at all even within AFRICA.

This big tribes offer little to the progress of the country.
Even the country is run by oil from the minority Nigerdelta.

The big tribes contribute so little despite being so much,they actually suck the country dry,bringing shame to the country with their immense criminal inclination.

They offer no value.

A Nigerdelta country will be more powerful than a NIGERIA.

A middlebelt country will be more powerful than a NIGERIA.

The Yoruba,Hausa and Igbo offer no value to NIGERIA.
They pull no weight even within AFRICA.

This guy was full of praises for TINUBU before he became president

But the environment around the theatre is a complete eyesore

The major tribes came in and gradually ruined everything with their cruel ways.



All products for the masses today are highly substandard

When I was struggling in every sphere imaginable in my late teens and early to mid twenties in Nigeria,I saw very physically attractive,voluptuous,nubile Nigerian women all over white European men,older wealthier men and rich kids in highbrow,posh settings.
It never really bothered/annoyed/angered me and I focused on improving myself because even back then,i had an inkling women gravitate towards men who are winners even if they do not share thesame skin colour,ethnicity,social class,nationality etc.
You desire women as a man?then focus on the facets in your life that need improvements and quit blaming other men who are outcompeting you in the marketplace.

Gbagbe ,imagine if say Chinese men flooding Nigeria start bagging naija gals loudly,even though it's somewhat happening these men are low-key and chinese no too dey swag like naija guys in these countries,if chinese had swag and are loud ,omo u go see reaction,can you out compete the Chinese?

traware:
Na wa o!
So if for example,Nigerian women chasing after Japanese men,Nigerian men should start hating and verbally&physically threatening Japanese men?instead of Nigerian men asking themselves why Nigerian women are chasing after Japanese men?
Make una dey use una brains sometimes

Na because it never really happen to una Nigerian men,that's why u will not really understand how it feels,if Nigerian women start falling over d japanese men especially if they based in NIGERIA ,you go surprise how d thing go be,u will be surprised how Nigerian men will start acting up

Go and watch "the Men who Built America", then come back and tell me it was not Entrepreneurs who built it.

My point is, it is individuals willing to fight for a society and make a change, that actually change society. Not those who cannot think beyond their stomach and that of their families.

" The men who built America " it's possible it is an American PR propangada story.

I get your point
But I still maintain that the whites weren't that much different as much as we think,many of them japad,the main difference is they didn't have much alternatives to japa as Africans have today.

These Reno omokri and the 3 major tribes are MUMUs.

Eternal slaves

TheGift:
Who says they did not have alternatives? The Chinese and Indians that are trooping into Nigeria, while we are running away, do they not have alternatives? The difference between them and us is that we don't want to take responsibility for building our country and societies, we just want to outsource it to some "leader" That is not how great countries are built. For example, it is entrepreneurs, not governments that built America.

Forget this entrepreneur tale,it's bunkum,it's a lie,its the American government that built America not entrepreneur shit( many do not know that America runs a system were it freely and easily gives credit( capital) to entrepreneurs), so ultimately the government is the game changer,aside America what about Europe is it entrepreneurs that built Europe?.

Chinese and Indians have business here,they have funds( capital) which they can risk.The Indians are even more guilty of japa than Nigerias, Indians japa pass Nigerias,likewise the Chinese.

Nigerians will rather use that capital for japa since it guarantees some form of success which is less risky.

The whites never had alternatives in those days,the ones that did ,who japad to Freeland escaping poverty in Europe created countries like Australia, new Zealand, south africa and the Americas.Europe and America were the most developed places in the world for a very long time so they had virtually no other place to japa to,so they had no choice but to fight,unlike Nigerians who have alternatives

Such free land do not exist again for Africans/ Nigerias to go to so Europe and the Americas are great alternatives.

legitnow1:
The whole thing looks and sounds to me like jealousy.

Even lately some Kenyan men have started to join SA in attacking Nigeria because Kenyan women like Nigerian men.

I think once their women like you, they start to perceive you as a threat and before you know it hate and propaganda against you.

How would you feel if it was the other way round. Think about that

bigpicture001:
I am black... I boldly support racism against blacks all over Europe.... The whites fight their government through both organize and in organize protest .. forcing them to change for better and make the country a better place..

But in Africa, when the government do anti growth and development policies, the people complain and next, they gather funds and run to Europe who stood against their government and fight for a better country...

Shame of Africans

The issue is the Europeans had no were to go then,if they did they would have japa too,that's why America exist,including south America, it was Europeans that japad there.but in most cases they had no were to go as Europe was still the most developed place even at their building era compared to the rest of the world.

Africa's have alternatives, Europeans especially then did not

gidigbam1:
Bro, I think you are wrong on this one. Why do you think a desert like Dubai will have the guts to ban Nigerians from visiting? It is because of infrastructure. Don't forget that Dubai in the 90s was just a desert land like Niger Republic. Their daily oil production was just 50K barrels per day while Nigeria was producing 2 million barrels per day, yet the managed their meagre resources and borrowed funds to build Dubai like it is today while our clueless leaders like OBJ used our money to pay back Paris loans. If OBJ had used the money to build infrastructure to the standard of Singapore, Dubai, Doha, Bahrain, do you think Nigeria will be where it is today? But all our past leaders have been clueless and wicked and only squandered the resources on intangible things instead of building infrastructures that would have put Nigeria on the map, and make it one of the top tourist destinations in the world.

Imagine if we have the kind of infrastructures they have in Dubai or in the west, do you think Nigerians will be japaring? You will see the whole world coming to Nigeria to invest and all these unemployment will be a thing of the past as the influx of investment will create multiple jobs and don't forget tourism brings so much funds.

It is only someone like Wike and Donald Duke that can change this country's infrastructure. Wike did it in RIvers state and he's doing it in Abuja. If you have anybody living in Abuja ask them, they'll tell you the kind of infrastructure this guy built in just 7 months I have never seen it even in 19 years that I lived in America. Not that fast. So hating him for his attitude makes no sense. We just need someone that will deliver period.

While the poor areas are still a mess?.
He should build infrastructure for the masses,that's what counts

Elite policies and projects.the very thing killing NIGERIA.

This is totally a wrong way of developing.
These old men have nothing to offer.

They are dumber than children

The generation of TINUBU and slightly older such as the buharis, the gowons,the babangida,Obasanjo's,Jonathan's messed up Nigeria severely plus their contemporaries in the private and government sector.
That generation is stinkingly inept and never left any legacy.their GENERATION will go down with no one remembering their song,deeds and names unlike the azikiwes and Awolowo GENERATION.

It is time for the millenials to take up leadership ,I know someone will bring up yahaya Bello, yahaya Bello is not a millenial,he is over 50 Now.

The burden is on the millenials and gen z to build a new and prosperous black nation.
Though a lot of these two GENERATION have been corrupted by the evil systems set in motion by the old evil GENERATION.

We must take example from what countries like China are building.

Get these stupid old men out.
These oldmen are stupid fools and have nothing to offer anyhow.

They are dumber than children

The major tribes where the real participants in slavery,they sold their people in droves

Exactly what I keep saying about the older generation ,but am not a writer like hundeyin

Tellmeastory:
Don’t mind them.

China went through HELL to do what they are doing today.

For starters, they rejected democracy.

Till today, nothing like democracy or freedom of speech in China.

If you dare criticise Xi Jinping, you are finished.

Then they banned all foreign imports for decades. Millions opposed it and were killed or jailed. Even till today there are millions of dissidents in jail in China. All those who were screaming about rights and supporting the west etc.

China shut them down permanently.

Are Nigerians ready to ban all imports until we learn to manufacture everything we need ourselves?

That’s exactly what the Chinese dictatorship did.

The Chinese used to have their roads filled with BICYCLES in the 1970s and 80s. Vehicle imports were banned.

Are Nigerians ready for that?

Ordinary removal of fuel subsidy is causing fracas and shouts of T-Pain.

Just accept that every nation has their own path.

We will get there in our own way.

This is the old system I believe,Nigeria doesn't need to ban all imports.
Nigeria simply needs to embrace stoic management of resources and education and training.

No body in this country is the UK's slaves.

Igboho went to Downing street as a political stunt....and a fund raising stunt. That is what they all do....remember MNK was always getting himself photographed with white people, and attending \international confrences\, that's how they get the supporters to fund their capers and the movement as a whole, as well as satisfy their desire for action...meanwhile dem dey cash out.

Hausas/Fulanis wey wan see the back of the UK right from word go under their rule, lol.

The reason why Nigeria has not divided is simple. It is too uncertain an undertaking. Everybody is screaming contraption, but the new countries they are planning are....contraptions too.

But Western governments through the EU and their agencies practically run Nigerias government.

If you observe closely most Nigerian government programs,projects and sometimes policies are usually sponsored by the EU,USAID etc . people are not taking note of this.

Nigerian government seem to be incapacitated

What of the heinous crime committed by the federal troops?

Gowon couldn't do that because the federal troops also committed heinous genocidal crimes against minorities too

The only way Nigeria will get out of the woods is not by all these macroeconomics jargon and academic IMF policies but simply by peasant economic policies.

Nigeria has to simply focus on the peasants Nigeria needs it now more than ever.

It was the error of BUHARI and TINUBU is making the same costly mistake which he also made in LAGOS ( it is the reason LAGOS as a lot of prosperity but the peasant areas and conditions are terrible )

Elite policies will not make Nigeria make headway, that has been the bane of Nigeria ,the focusing on elite policies.

Peasant policies are simply-

1.Engaging the peasants(government quick low paid jobs)- npower was an example but the elites didn't let it work like they always do.

One mistake that I see a lot of Nigerias make is that they say oh should you wait for government to do everything for you, can't you do things for yourself?

The thing is that the peasant class can't do anything for themselves because they don't have capital( money in simple terms).

They must be helped with welfarist policies( freebies with conditions) ,Nigeria has the resources for freebies,but corruption by the elites is preventing such welfarist policies, the elites will steal the freebies.

Therefore corruption has to be ruthlessly dealt with, it has to be Personal- the president has to take it has a personal fight.

voting an elite like tinubu will not fight corruption which is the main barrier against freebies( with conditions) for the peasants.That is the mistake the peasants themselves are making.

See the way Peter obi is donating huge sums.that should tell you the kind of President he would have been,at the very least he would encourage freebies( with conditions) for the peasant class which is what Nigeria desperately needs not macroeconomics elite jargons.

This freebies with conditions can be implemented with borrowed funds etc.
They include mass low-cost housing.
Cheap mass transportation
Cheap food
Cheap education



It is was the military era practiced ,democracy rule changed this practice and things have gone worse since.

However, the freebie this time as to be with conditions unlike the military era when they didn't place conditions, the conditions can include

Parents sending their wards to school,
Having a limited number of kids
Not japaing
Taking care of security and cleaniless etc.

The states must also be opted into this system.

The building of useless roads and bridges,trains like Lagos is doing is waste of funds.what a state like Lagos really needs is giving freebies with conditions to the indigenous Yoruba peasants.this will dramatically improve LAGOS for example, imagine Lagos builds thousands of low-cost houses instead of trains,that will improve LAGOS dramatically instead of trains that take 20 years in the midst of dirty stinking environment. Tinubus blueprint is simple wrong

This can be done with existing funds accruable to Nigeria as it is.

Ultimately it will improve the economic standing of the populace,then there can be gradual improvement of infrastructure.

But the elite rule system sponsored by the politics and democracy with their corrupt elites divert these funds back to the elites.

This is why Nigeria looks like a war ravaged nuclear bomb hit country.everything is a mess because the peasant class do not have freebies while the elites get the freebies.

Until the peasant class themselves understand this and stop reinforcing the elites they'll keep being cheated.


Again TINUBUs policies are wrong and will not help NIGERIA. His policies will favor the elites as most Nigerian government since democracy have done,the conditions of the majority peasant NIGERIANS will not improve after his tenure- this is simply the truth.

The so called sacrifice for a better future never works,it has never worked.

Na him private business partner in they meet

Na them dey run go meet whitemen later they go say white men no wan may dey progress

Beg beg,the go round the world begging white men,mumu men

foleskay:
Confused clowns in government.

Over 150 people died of tanker explosion,last week,was all over major world news channels, but not a single statement from the so called government. Tinubu didn't return from France neither did his vice returned from a jamboree trip to Sweden. Over 160 people died under ur watch. When we're not in a war.

I'm yet to see any govt statement on that disaster. Biden was in the airport about to leave for Germany for NATO summit with Ukraine,when he was briefed about hurricane Milton, impending disaster,he had to stay back and be on ground,so the meeting was postponed because there's no US president. See a working society.

But here,the govt has become insensitive to any news of death or disaster, they'd just be like it's none of their business. Like 'ko kan aye'. Wat a stupid country I find my self

It's a country populated by slaves,no one cares about SLAVES.
