CultureRe: Is There Any Country In Africa That Does Not Hate Nigerians by Blyss: 3:18am On Jan 25, 2013
morpheus24: You are watching too many youtube videos. The rebel R.U.F despised the Ecomog troops made mostly of Nigerians and accused them of trying to invade sierra leone to capture its diamonds. The Nigerians were also very brutal when they captured rebel soldiers.

The civilian sierra leonians and Liberians saw a lot of Nigerians troops partner with the official govt troops and the Kamajaroo, die to maintain order, and prevent many townships from being victims of "short sleeve" vs "long sleeve".

A lot of marital unions came about between Nigerians and sierra leonians during that era and many refugees fled to Nigeria as well. After the war The president of sierra leone invited Nigerian business people who were welcome to come set up shop as they did before the war.

I doubt you are very familiar with all the above nor have you spoken to several sierra leonians ( the non creo ones especially)
Humm, that's not what they say in the Youtube videos.

The venture, officially titled the Nigeria - Cameroon Multinational Highway and Transport Facilitation Project, will ultimately connect Bamenda in northwestern Cameroon to Enugu in eastern Nigeria via a 433 km-long corridor. It’s being funded by the African Development Bank, the World Bank and Japan’s Agency for International Development to the tune of close to $500 million.

It’s a longstanding project, first discussed in the mid-80s. It received a significant boost in 2008, when donors considered it a strategic catalyst in diffusing lingering political unease between Cameroon and Nigeria after the nonviolent resolution of the Bakassi border dispute.

Work began in June 2010, with completion slated for 2013.



Cameroon-Nigeria Highway Designed to Boost Trade between West and Central Africa
According to the funding arrangement, Nigeria and Cameroon will each contribute 10 percent of the cost of the total project – money known as counterpart funding. Donors say the disbursement of funds by Cameroon has been especially slow. In its 2010 state budget, for example, the government allocated $3.2 million for the project, but only $400,000 was actually released.

Lawal Audi, the project coordinator for Nigeria, says Cameroon’s slow payments – counterpart funding -- are causing donor frustration and delaying the smooth implementation of the project.

"Well, the counterpart funds from the Cameroon government are slow and it may affect the program. The major recommendation is for the Cameroon government to provide [the funding] so the works can go ahead," he says.

Patrice Ngiema Essono is an inspector at Cameroon's Ministry of Public Works and the head of the Cameroonian delegation at the talks. He says there are reasons for Cameroon's tardiness in making its payments.

"You know," he says, "every time African countries have projects, donors ask for counterpart funds. Looking at our budget, it is not possible to do that at once, but as the project evolves, the funds will be progressively disbursed."

The road is expected to increase trade exchanges and strengthen cooperation between Cameroon and Nigeria, as well as the Economic Community of Central States [ECCAS] and the Economic Community of West African States [ECOWAS]. It will also create huge benefits for an estimated 11 million people living along its course. Those who’ve been dislodged are being compensated and resettled. Schools, health centers, markets, women’s advancement centers and farm produce processing units will be built along the highway.

Elsewhere, transport service users are foreseeing significant gains in terms of reduced costs. El Hadj Oumarou represents Cameroon on the steering committee. He is the general manager of the Cameroon Land Freight Management Office.

"We want to access the West African market and the starting point is this road." He says, "There are important exchanges ongoing between Cameroon and Nigeria by sea, but land transport remains archaic. Our major worry now is the disbursement of the counterpart funds, because if the donors get discouraged, it would delay the completion of the project slated for 2013," he cuations.

Delegates from both countries will meet again later this year in Lagos, Nigeria, to assess progress on the recommendations made in a meeting in Douala last month.

But experts say the Cameroon government must show more engagement. Another member of the steering committee is David Kamara, director of transport and telecommunications at ECOWAS.

He says, "In Cameroon, the progress has not been that good. In Nigeria, there’s been some progress, then at the ECOWAS level, we’ve suffered a lot of setbacks, but over the last few months we’ve been able to take care of the shortcomings."

The other committee members say they hope that before their next session, all problems hampering the smooth implementation of the project will have been cleared, including agreements on loading limits for cargo trucks to ply the corridor

The road forms part of the Trans-African Highway, which is intended to link Lagos, Nigeria, to Mombasa, Kenya. The project contractor, the China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation (CCECC), is repairing and entirely reconstructing parts of the highway to go through 203km in Cameroon and 240km on the Nigerian side.

The plan also includes construction of a joint border post and a 280m-long border bridge over the Cross River. Cameroon and Nigeria have benefitted from a joint loan from the African Development Bank to erect these structures, but misunderstandings loom over the exact financial contribution expected from each country.

morpheus24: I have come across many West Africans and of all the Liberians and sierra leonians seem to be very cordial with Nigerians.

Might be because of our involvement in Ecomog in the 90's. Good or bad we did do something good there and I don't think they have forgotten it.

Apart form that therest of the West are extremely skeptical about Nigerians

My two cents.
LOL, that's not true. To most Liberians and SL's, your troops while there were seen as being just as much of a Tyrant as the Rebels.

This are suppose to be "trained" soldiers? grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin

The useless cretins of about 15,000 led by a Militia "Brigadier" could not even defeat a bunch of child-soldier militias in Sierra Leone. The untrained street kids were dealing with their dumb arses. The "Brigadier" only knew how to loot as Military Administrator of Borno state under IBB. It took a British Professional Army of a mere 1,200 soldiers led by a real Brigadier that disobeyed orders so he can stop the war, something unheard of, to stop the Sierra Leonean war in less than 12 weeks. Brigadier David Richards had only a mandate to evacuate but when he got there he saw what needed to be done and broke the rules, just the way Sagamite would have done. Fck the rules, do the unconventional! Like Richards, I live my life based on what makes sense and will break rules to get the best results. cool Our soldiers only know how to raape Sierra Leonean teenage girls as we have fucktards like Chongaiman who is trained like an animal and he takes pride in his training because all he sees is opportunity to raape.

http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/africa/the-saviour-returns-to-sierra-leone-1983935.html

You take unintelligent illiterates, train them like an animal and then give them a gun and you expect a professional army?

Nigeria does not have a Military force, we have a national Militia.

Never pray these animals come to your country, ask for at least something like the South African professional army if you can't get Westerners. If Westerners and SA can not come, I can assure you you are better off with Al-Shabbab than our cretins.

pro01: I don't know what some of you junkies are smoking, but it has to be really strong. Stuuuupid patriotism is not enough to make one live in Fools' Paradise; it takes something stronger.

A country where nothing works - even the most basic institutions. The police force is a hot mess. The civil service is a den of incompetence and corruption. Infrastructure is non-existent. The darn government has no clue how much it (actually) makes from the 'rent' it collects from its crude oil, poverty, corruption, incompetence, inefficency, and a total collapse of governance at all levels is the order of the day. Acute shortage of skilled manpower in ALL professions in the country is a fact of life.

YEY. YET. YET, somehow, this same country's Army (infantry troops) miraculously happen to be among "the best in the world"? ? ? How? Due to the natural skill and strength of the average barely educated and thoroughly undisciplined aboki that joins the army (courtesy of nepotism/ 'Federal Character')? Or due to the 'advanced' training facilities/techniques of the Nigerian Military School or Nigerian Defence Academy (LOL!)? Or due to WHAT exactly? ? ?

A dysfunctional third-world country wallowing in abject incompetence and corruption would claim to have one of the world's best (infantry) armies? HOW? Worst still, some suggest that wars are not won from the air? In this age of high-calibre, automated drones? In any case, So infantry troops deploy nuclear warheads? ? ? Who are the schizophrenic fools that make these silly claims? I believe the mumus that make these claims are either members of the Nigerian Armed firces, or children of fat-bellied thieves in the Nigerian Armed forces.

Na God go punish the Nigerian Army. They should not waste time in Mali and elsewhere. Their skills are needed here at home - to "discipline bloody civilians". In that regard they are certainly the best in the world. Rubbish.

I'm patiently awaiting their interactions with the Rebels, and it's only then that their true muster and preparation will be tested and noted.

omenka: This whole gun legislation drive has been in the making for years with the various mass shooting incidences to demonize gun ownership. The media is controlled by these same demons pushing for a ban on private gun ownership and have completely sensored parts of the incidences which makes it clear the shooters were under the influence of some kind of psychotropic drugs. They were disposable pawns in the hands of the Globalists pushing for a New World Order. The Sandy Hook incidence was most disgustingly suspecious because no surveilance video whatsoever has been seen of the shooting! A gurl whose name was among the list of those killed was shown with her parents talking to a news reporter! What an error! Alota questions are begging answers but, sadly, non is forthcoming.
Americans need to answer their clarion call and stand up against this unrelenting asault on their constitution cos as America goes, so goes most countries in the world.
The birth of a Police State is imminent.
The effort is not to ban gun ownership, that'll be impossible.. in that it'll be directly offence against a fundamental staple in the constitution. No, the effort is to ban military grade semi-automatic assault rifles from being in the hands of the common people. Those weapons were made for law enforcement, and it was a mistake via a strong NRA lobby.. to allow them to be purchased by non-law enforcement personal. The effort is to simply correct a error in past political judgement. The 2nd amendment originally stated that the people had the right to bare arms ONLY in the effort of forming a militia, but in 2008 and 2010, the Supreme Court issued two landmark decisions officially establishing this interpretation... "In District of Columbia v. Heller, 554 U.S. 570 (2008), the Court ruled that the Second Amendment protects an individual's right to possess a firearm, unconnected to service in a militia[1][2] and to use that arm for traditionally lawful purposes, such as self-defense within the home within many longstanding prohibitions and restrictions on firearms possession listed by the Court as being consistent with the Second Amendment".

Now as you can clearly see, no where is it stated that the gov. doesn't have the right to determine which type of arms the citizens may hold. For years now it's been illegal to own fully automatic versions of assault rifles, and further more some rifles period whether in their semi or full automatic form are illegal to have, such as the AK 47, M16, M4, AR15 and more in some states, such as NY, Maine, DE and others.

That's because the history of non whites in Belgian History is nearly nonexistent, with the exception of their colonial interactions in the Congo, in which I'm sure only get a snippet of coverage in their history books.
