sheyie2007: good to know accra no reach..hehehehe

Okaaay ! - gibberish mode.

sheyie2007: Go and sit down somewhere.. let me have a constructive argument for once

You're the one who's comments aren't constructive. You've been showered with data and are now tired to your very soul.

Have fun Nigerians. Enjoy Lagos - to the extent feasible.

chris365: i doubt that

And I should care because...?

sheyie2007: I don't dispute there HDI, but
what's the population of zimbabwe if i may ask?

It's irrelevant.

Unless you are looking for an excuse.

all4naija: The sense will soon come to you when we invade your cities and make you beg for your primitive life. And, lay bare those Zulus going about with clubs, spears and arrows looking for African immigrants to murder on the streets.[/i]

The word is infest.

scipher: nah... I just hate gaynains with foam filled brain..posting on a nigerian platform

Yeah - long way to say 419. Sure, dude.

Anyway - that's why you don't grow. This is the inter-web. International. Get it?

I'm sure the owner of the website wants growth?

You aren't a business person.

You lied.

all4naija: It is not just about numbers but about formulated statistic. That to me is questionable.

Measurement means numbers. Not all4Naija's opinion. Show us the[b] numbers[/b] and stop the yadda-yadda.

scipher: all your posts thus far suggests you have none... Phucking internet troll... I have a business pumping cash for me while I post, what do you have? Lost cause

I'm sure. 419?

all4naija: Yet your progressing country has been relying on UK and US aid for years!

'

So? We have progressed enough to be kicked out of aid.

What about you?

You are progressing towards failure while claiming to have the best military.

Where's the sense in that?

Something wrong with the Nigerian brain.

all4naija: I am disappointed in you and South Africa. So disappointed for the fact that the country claims to be the most developed and civilized in Africa when daft citizens are being raised there.

We don't claim it. Numbers do.

Numbers don't lie.

sheyie2007: ode.. the fool ran out of lame points

I have a life.

Right now, I have to go read some books.

Happy Saturday everyone.



Bye bye

A failed, hungry state buying weapons while on aid.

There's something wrong with the Nigerian brain.

all4naija: Your peanut brain won't allow your to see beyond your nose. That is just mere propaganda full of baseless thoughts and some sentiments which haven't come to reality in any way. I sorry for you being so gullible to accept such piece of writing by propagandist with all enthusiasm.

Is this propaganda too?

By the way, Ghana remains the better country.

scipher: lame and boring posts. Just go and watch ben10 with your compatriots..

If it's so lame, why do you respond.

These posts are not for you anyway. They are for future readers.

So, talk some more.

all4naija: I hope this will help you to understand it better. You have continuously hinted on Nigeria being in the top group as worse as Somalia, which you are now trying to conceal with your 'numbers' assertion when its come to SA. Lol... I think you are very funny!

Explanatory image posted below for your own advantage.

What are you on about? You are position 14 and are red (nigeria). What position is South Africa and what colour is it?

You cannot read.

South African countries have the best scores in all of Africa.

Addressing State Failure in Nigeria: Recommendations for a Policy Shift


Nigeria’s descent into state failure has been catalyzed by the fuel subsidy removal strike and compounded by Boko Harams seemingly endless displays of terror throughout the nation. This policy brief aims to analyze and address the major dimensions of state failure. The policy options center around the subsidy removal, an analysis of these options bring to light larger economic, political and security dimensions facing the state. The recommendations seek to address the wider policy issues that face the nation. This brief is produced and endorsed by Niger Delta Professionals for Development (NIDPRODEV).

I. Executive Summary

Nigeria is at the brink of state failure despite its wealth, both in natural resources and human capital. The subsidy removal protests, sectarian violence perpetrated by Boko Haram, incidences of crime and unsettled grievances in the Niger Delta region are all indicative of state failure. The brief centers on policy options concerning the nations fuel subsidy, existing options include, removal of the subsidy, maintaining the subsidy and a phased subsidy removal. Following analysis, the brief calls for a phased subsidy removal pending significant developmental reforms. These recommendations include: enhancing capacities beyond the oil sector to include value creation sectors of the economy, combating corruption, reducing wasteful spending by government, fostering a greater sense of national identity, engaging in national dialogue on national development and security issues, address youth unemployment and making the nation’s existing refineries functional. While the policy recommendations are largely directed at the State, it is crucial to note that transforming the nation requires an effort by society at all levels, this considered the recommendations also speak to the role of civil society and international development partners.

scipher: the guy is a joke

Believe what you want apeman. I don't care.

What's the point of this?

Clearly you cannot read the index.

The index says you are red alert, which you absolutely are.

Nigerians say you are failed, which you may very well be.

Your post takes the matter nowhere.

sheyie2007: now he's white..lol

Don't make yourself look f**lish now. I've always been white. There are white South Africans, you know.

And why does race matter so much to you lot anyway?

all4naija: You are fooling yourself by referring me to read what failed state means when we know that a nation going through civil war is a absolutely a failed state in all ramifications than any other. That is the reason why I can say you are brainwashed by such propaganda to think Syria is more stable than Nigeria.

Less talking. Show us the scores please. Show us the numbers.

all4naija: Lol... You country is still high up there on the list. It is among the second tier of color on the index. South Africa is second failed state after Nigeria based on the table color.

Show us the numbers.

You've seen your score.

Show us South Africa's score then. Please.

You can't read, South Africa is not on your red category. Can you see it?

chris365: Seriously, thank the whites cos tey've hepled you guys a lot.

So? We whites are South African too. What's the big deal? So are you saying you need whites to not be a failed state?

all4naija: Welcome troll. At least try to make sense of your argument. How can you claim Syria in civil war with huge refugees across its borders is better than Nigeria on failed state index?

First, go and read about what a failed state is. Clearly you don't know. Then you can come back.

And these aren't my claims. They are today's facts.

Nigerian opinion - you are a failed state according to this lawyer:

____


Is Nigeria a failed state?


YES, says lawyer and poet, Ogaga Ifowodo


Ogaga Ifowodo is currently in the US doing his PhD
Ogaga Ifowodo is a lawyer and a poet whose book, [/b]The Oil Lamp, is about the Niger Delta crisis.

[b]He is currently completing a PhD at Cornell University in New York.

Most, if not all of the indices of failed states, declare Nigeria well on its way to joining that disreputable club.
Nigeria boasts a government unable to deliver basic social services.
It is plagued by corruption so endemic and monumental it is hard to separate it from state policy.
It lacks the capability or discipline to prevent threats to public safety and national integrity and is assailed by active challenges to its legitimacy.
The latest disaster of a re-run election in Ekiti state, meant to correct the errors of the first, proved an even greater show of shame.
While Nigerians, notoriously prickly in their nationalism, may loudly denounce any suggestions from abroad of the imminent disintegration of their country, they nonetheless admit the unflattering truth of this possibility to themselves and each other.
'Critically weak'

chris365: that's because we are too smart to swallow every flawed report America dishes out. .

Oh is that so? Is that why your fellow Nigerians are saying the same thing?

agaugust: y.ou are a b.loody liar, even @Bcraig could not deny it,

I couldn't be bothered to watch it. I don't care, as you probably can tell from my responses.

Whether Zuma bowed or not, it's irrelevant. He is not the one whose country's oil was stolen by the US. He is not the one whose country is red alert on the failed state index.

agaugust: how does south africa want to lead africa if it has to bow down to everybody from low seleka rebels up to obama ?

i am not interested in nation bashing but i find this a personal insult to all of us africans in america, we expected south africa to show stuff to america and make us proud as black people....i dont care about nairaland conflict/arguments going on...i dont like the disgrace jacob zuma gave we balcks here, people will look down on us as inferior people.

i dont say 'sir' to my own boss in the office and he is an old retired colonel....then to bow down head of an african president in public view of the whole world.... ? ? ? bowing to a much younger american president the age of his own son ? what has south africa become ? will ex-president P.W.Botha bow down to an Obama president ?


i feel like deleting this video tomorrow, so embarrasing to africans worldwide. i miss obasanjo the lion heart !

Clearly you've run out of things to talk about.

zetdee: other than the last criteria, I'll rate Nigeria high in all of them.

It's pretty obvious they haven't been able to build a country. The British just lumped together people that were incapable of living together. We see the results today. It's almost as if some Nigerians want Nigeria to not work.

Henry120: Fool, you insignificant opinion has been noted. now run along.

Glad you've thrown in the towel. You can't censor me. I will post to my heart's content for the benefit of all future readers. It's not about you. You're totally irrelevant.
