Nigeria you de see? i hope you de see ooo.

Long and short- This story is a big fat lie- the okada man just knocked an innocent woman down, mobilized his boys, they beat the woman for being at the wrong place at the wrong time. helped you summarize the witch story. This story is also full of contradictions- why, if she could turn into a cat not do so again front of people to escape? Is her only power a cat? if she could kill people- why was she allowing herself to get beaten up? Man anytime I am on Nairaland, and hear what ppl say, I just keep playing this song in my head : [b]Zombie oh Zombie, Zombie, Zombie way go follow anyone


@sefago what do you mean by why she did not escape? haven't you been listening to these geniuses? when she was seen by the okada rider her powers were extinguished such that she could neither escape or harm them. That is the number one law in the occult. you must allow yourself to be manhandled and probably killed rather than exibit your powers in order to escape.

@alloy emeka

@r231 of course if Nigeria get better who would not want to go back. Do you want to live in a place where you have a high percentage of being murdered at anytime with the police scratching their heads for clues and also where the police would probably go to a herbalist to ask for help in searching for evidence and clues to the crime? or a place where you cast your votes and you can be rest assured that your vote will not count? No thank you.  

@youmyuk  all that you are saying here is story. There is a thread on NL where people are congratulating obj for at least investing the money he stole back into the economy. They are saying if there are more looters like obj Nigeria would be a better place.

Systems check complete. at&t you too much jooo. O'yeah where were we? yes witches and wizards.

shit!!! this virus called tpia has attacked my pc again. hold on folks i've got to do a system check. I just dont understand. upon all the money at&t is collecting for anti spam and virus protection. Might have to change service. Damn.

@Bawolomo What is your problem? if your are not careful i will send something to disturb you tonight. Manhatten project ko, 5th avenue project ni. But seriously, many years ago in Nigeria there was this graduate friend of mine who was trying to explain to me why accidents happen at a particular bridge in ikorodu. he said the reason was because there were mermaids in the river that were enticing drivers to their deaths and the only way out was to make occassional sacrifices (human beings) to appease them. The idea that a speed bump could help reduce the speed that motorist hit the bridge at a corner never crossed his mind. Many years later i am involved in a discussion in a forum were people like beef and afam are trying to convince me that santa claus is real. If these guys went to college i would advise to go back for a refund. They obviously have been cheated.

Nigeria is the only country i know where people will be told not to go out on certain days at night because you might be used for sacrifice to the gods. MADNESS

psychologicaly, man is born selfish and greedy.

@Hakeemval and if you are in the same level as capelo would take a coaching job in Nigeria?

I don tell una. na poverty de dictate this superstituous rant. Halloween is around. It is a day which includes trick-or-treating, wearing costumes and attending costume parties, ghost tours, bonfires, visiting haunted structures. It is a day that most americans play out their weirdest fantasies in the occult. e.g werewolves, vampires, ghosts, bigfoot etc. But after that day you do not see them going about claiming that they saw a vampire sucking on a person's neck. Also if the military as you claim have invested heavily in the occult why are they still buying/building jets, building more nuclear bombs and whatnot. Why are our soldiers still wearing bullet proof vests when we could be wearing cowrie shells. Why are we still using planes for transport when we can easily lift one leg and 'voila we are in our proposed destination. Look, lets face, Jesus!!! trying to convince you people is begining to give me a migraine. i better leave it here. i dont want to be hospitalized.

@sayso  Each with his own reason for travelling abroad. please scroll back to previous pages to see my other posts on this issue. One thing i am very sure about is that we as Nigerians are so spoilt that we for instance think that gold and silver are littering the streets in the west. I have a friend that we were both in the service together although he was 2 years ahead of me. He and i decided to utilise our GI bill to the fullest. We both got our masters and got ourselves certified as info systems auditors. This guy got out of the service and within a month got a job with 120k salary tag. And for anybody in the west that salary no be moi moi. He travels every where across the globe handling high profile clients. As i am laughing my ass off so would he if he heared/read the nonsense been said here. discrimination ko, discrimination ni. If you decide to leave Nigeria and not upgrade yourself in the west when given the opportunity you should expect crap. lets be honest, how do you look at labourers and cleaners even in Nigeria and you expect to do the same kind of jobs and not be looked down upon in another mans country? Nigga please. Now there were a lot of Nigerians that we knew who had the choice to take the same path we took but chose not to. So who is to blame?

@cap28 what are you still doing there?

@Sagamite What i have found is that the corruption has eaten so deep that you actually need these business moguls to propagate illegality in government. And i agree Abiola like dangote had his hand in every pie/aspect of our lives. But like you said no direct proof. we can only use the same measurements and standards we have used with other leaders to judge him.

@sagamite   I must say i agree with vavavoom on this issue. Since our legal system does not work and the fact that the freedom of information act has never seen the light of day we are forced to come to our own conclussions on issues relating to our leaders and the source of their wealth based on their actions and the realities in Nigeria. If we should go by the Nigerian standard for evidence then we should not be suprised that no ex president/important public personality has ever be jailed for crimes against the nation.

@Hardbody And i'm sure that, and this goes for you and anybody else singing the same tune, if you were given the same opportunity before you could afford to, and i quote, "generate my power, regulate my environment with A/C, pump my water using the borehole, drive to wherever i want irrespective of the roads and the supposed crime level. I go to megaplaza and see folks eating chicken and chips and stuff, downing stout and other drinks and i tell myself, 9ja is not as bad" You would be dancing and singing to a totaly different music. Having the right papers to live abroad is an opportunity like any other and what you do with it depends on you. Only a fool will be given the opportunity and not take advantage of it. Anyone you know that sweeps streets/toilet etc is most likely living there illegaly and does not have a choice. Also for all the nay sayers if you have never experienced an alternate world, yes i said it, cause the life in Nigeria is not real, then how can you reasonably comment on it. It is possible to have 24hr power/water/communication/security. It is possible to go to university for 4 straight years without strike. It is possible to close your eyes and think of anything you want to be in life and be that thing you want to be. Most of you that are shouting are only doing so because you have the means and are used the illegal way of living in Naija e.g tapping current directly from nepa pole, building houses without permits, taking one way whenever you want with/without police escorts, avoid paying taxes, etc come and try that crap here.

If you live in UK, it is common. Very common. Nigerians that live their jobs and come to UK for masters. After masters no job. Post study visa. 2 years after, still no job. Start hide and seek with police. Remain a deluded fellow for years. And the poor relative and friends in Nigeria do not help matters. I have met a lot of nigerians that send money regularly, like, kind of that is what they are meant for. And I was wondering, if they were back in Nigeria will they give their folks £300 - 400 every month?
I have concluded that Nigeria and Nigerians are the most complicated fellows in this world. Very complicated.  

@Arkinson   Why would anyone want to live in the UK or anywhere else for that matter without the correct papers? I hope you know that the above statement does not apply to people who who have the right permits.

In a way i understand what the poster is saying. Why would anyone really want to live in another man's country? i think the answer is obvious but the problem is some people that travel abroad for a better life aren't prepared for the culture shock and never actually have a long term plan. My first year in US was hell and i was like damn, is this the same America that everyone talks about? The weather was cold, the people were cold, you were always working to pay bills and never be able to relax. I really missed the days i hung out with boys over a plate of pepper soup and man u scoring their way to success on the huge flat screen tv at mama chukuka's place. Eventually i was advised by one bros to get an american education or training that would be valuable back in Nigeria to which i can fall back on when the time is right. Companies pay a hell of a lot of money,(much more than in the west) to people with western degrees or training. And as we all know, Nigeria of today is for the rich or at least for people with international connections. I think the poster just misses Naija and has not made adequate plans yet on retiring (which he'd better start now) back home. North south east west, home is best. Even as f@#ked up as it is.

@kobojunkie et tu'? again , again , again

@alloy emeka your literary/analytical skills are getting better and better. I'm very impressed.

@asunaobi , again , again , again

@Afam   Spiritual things yes. Supersticious things?    And yes, It is only poverty that will warp another human being to believe that a woman can change into a cat in the twinkle of an eye. Instead of selling akara at a tender age, if one was knee deep in books i do not think one would have time for such folklore. You cannot tell my 5 year old son of this. What you will see is a blank look of incredulity on his face. what with phineas and ferb, elmo, zack and cody, sesame street, nintendo wii, superman, batman, spiderman, x-men, etc to help with his development. With all your belief in Majic why are we still backward socialy and otherwise?

@Princek12 It is that comparison that is the problem. You see it in the everyday life of the average nigerian now. I have seen situations where policemen will stop a vehicle to demand N20 and passengers will be lambasting the driver to pay up. "you think say to stand for sun and rain easy?" or " we are in a hurry oooo" is what you will be hearing from Nigerians. See what i mean? Nigerians making rationale of corruption. Then the policeman will be feeling cool with himself. That is why they do not hide to do it anymore. People have rationalized their actions to make it right. My problem is that you made the comparison in the first place. You should not do that at all. All we need is your vilification.

I saw Father Xmas once, and I'll never forget it.   I was aboard a translantic jet at 35 thousand feet in clear skies, and with a slight westerly wind, just off the coast of Newfoundland, in mid-winter.  I looked out the window after what must have been my 5th martini, and there, before my disbelieving eyes, was old Saint Nick himself, aboard his magic sleigh.   He was cruising at a brisk airspeed well in excess of 400 knots because his beard has bent backward in the slipstream, and his eyes were watery despite the ski goggles he was wearing.  I remember being rather upset at the way he kept flogging those reindeer to make them go faster, but he paid absolutely no attention to my frantic gesticulations that he give them a break.  I asked the pilot to turn left on an intercept heading of approximately 075 degrees, so I could get a better look at the old fart, and to my delight, I could clearly see, in his gunny sack of goodies, the distinct outline of at least two of the Raider's cheerleaders that I had repeatedly requested as Xmas presents during the preceding year.   Sensing an opportunity to take posession of the women right away, I asked for the landing lights to be illuminated, in the hopes of forcing Santa Klaus into an emergency descent towards at Gander Airport, which at the time was a mere 80 nautical miles due west. To cut a long story short, Santa took evasive action, climbing up in an inverted loop to bleed off airspeed, and then dropping out of sight in a classic barrel roll that took his sleigh down through a cumulo-nimbus cloud formation which suddenly appeared as if by magic.  Enraged by my pilot's inability to keep the bogey in sight, I asked for his resignation papers as soon as we were on terra firma, and to this day, I have refrained from ever travelling that particular route again, no matter the fuel savings.

@Jakumo   I do not believe i have laughed as hard as i have today over a post. I thought sagamite was good but you are up there with the legends. As i have adviced sagamite, you should at the very least consider comedy as an alternate career.  Winch ko, witch ni. Aids, cancer, in fact corruption is there to tackle and afam is talking about research into superstition. Poverty has killed us in Nigeria.

@rells2 and kobojunkie  Like i said, stick around, you aint seen nothing yet my friends. Soon we'll rationalizing incest, genocide etc. Naija is wonderful.

If hitler reincarnates, comes to Nigeria, pays of the right people, joins the right party and does a little bit of philantropic works, i bet you he will be president in a twinkle of an eye. Poverty has eaten so deep that it is so hard to differentiate between corrupt wealth and hard work. Just make it, how you do it does not matter and once you do, mind-wipping can be arranged with a little cash. God help us.

a ritualist?
lol


You never know man. You said it i didn't

@knowall   was ibb ever prosecuted for stealing public funds to enrich himself? Then how do you know he actually stole from Nigeria?

@vavavoom i hope he has a good reply to that.

@Coolg  but you are your estate. Dead or alive it does not matter. It is your leagcy. Bottom line, in Nigeria you can steal as much as you want and can erase memories and buy the conscience of all with huge philantropic projects.

@Knowall  We dont talk evil about the dead? that is why we are still in the stone age.
