We still beat them hands down.
Except those mixed race fulanis

Lol. Ok.

hibiscus76:
of course the post is gonna vex the smokers reading itz buh I really don't care and I'm so unapologetic about it

What i find funny is the hypocritical moral stance of Nigerians on any issue. These are the same species who dress as if they want to sell their bodies to the highest bidder and are now here claiming the moral high ground. You people are just astounding. Smh.

Kellibae:
Igbo women.. proudly igbo.
We are pretty

Not compared to northern women.

Antichristus:
YOUR SUBMISSION GIVES ME HOPE THAT THERE ARE STILL SOME NIGERIANS WHO ARE NOT BLIND FOLDED BY UNVERIFIABLE CLAIMS SUCH AS THE ONE COMING FROM W.F. KUMUYI. NOTHING, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING, EMPIRICALLY SUPPORTS HIS CLAIM. YET, DOGGED ADHERENTS ARE SUBSCRIBING TO IT. THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN WHOLE GENERATIONS OF THE CITIZENRY ARE SYSTEMATICALLY DENIED QUALITY EDUCATION.

Well said.

mcmurphy132:
Lagos lead others follow

Leads who? Well, maybe for a local champion it does. You need to go out more and you'll realize that no state in Nigeria has what you'd call a modern city. It's all garbage.

pchukwudi:
WOW.

So impressive!

I actualky saw it coming!

Keep it coing sir!

Saw what coming? What are you? 12? Do you think this is the first time states have been partnering with foreign countries in Nigeria? Nigeria and by extension Nigerians are too decadent, corrupt and selfish to maintain or start anything good. If it were you would have seen the effect in your lives from decades of partnering with countries.

Onechancearmy:
You make a bit of sense, but you're missing the point entirely. The point is that Nigeria is an artificial entity.

Where it not for the British, the country we call Nigeria today would NEVER have come into existence by the natural course of history and every ethnic nationality would have been free to pursue its own development goals and agenda to the best of its ability. Evrything that is wrong such as the lawlessness that your Swiss friend witnessed is just a sympton of the Nigerian malaise and not the actual problem.

Artificial Countries like Nigeria which lack any real unifying factor always end up disintegrating. The examples are just too many to ignore (Yugoslavia, The Soviet Union, India, Sudan etc)

All great countries have strife. It is normal. Do you think Britain or the united states haven't gone through worse? There are states in the U.S who do not want to be part it's union and go there separate ways. The difference between them and Nigeria is that their citizens don't have to act like animals to put their point across or throw away decency in other to lead their daily lives.

BaesDiary:
So, I was in a taxi, at the back seat, alongside other passengers. As we were about to get to the junction where the police are stationed, the driver quickly told the passenger in the front seat to use his seat belt. The driver also put on his, and he drove on. This inspired me to wrote this piece. read on......

1. You are driving. You see the Road safety officials, but that's when you know you are supposed to put on your seat belt. Are they supposed to be your reminder to using the seatbeat?Are seatbelts not meant for your own safety?

2. You buy new clothes, just because you want to put up pictures on instagram/Facebook pictures ONLY. I thought we buy clothes to adorn ourselves and look beautiful.....

3. You eat out at big restaurants after collecting your salary, and you spend your money on irrelevant items, only for you to soak garri mid-month. My brother, why are you doing this to yourself?

4. Your parents took loan, just to send you to school. You got to the school and joined #bad gang. Why can't you face your studies and make your parents proud?

5. I am at your stall to buy your goods. We began bargaining. You told me 'e no gree'..... only for me to walk some distances, and you start screaming 'aunty, come pay.' Must you stress your customers? #ayam not understanding#


6. You are 16 years old this year, you are 16 years old the following year. In the next 3 years to come, you are still 16. #I can't keep calm on this.

7. You claim you love her, but pressure her to get down with you. Haba! Haven't you heard that True love waits?

8. You want to cross to the other side of the road, you started crossing when you saw that the vehicles were not stopping, then you started shouting 'please o, don't crush me o, baba oko mi joor o, abegi o'. Mama, but why? Why can't you use the bridge?

9. You form 'Behind' in Lagos, fly Uber and wear designers, but your parent still live in a mud house in the village, and your mother wears torn wrapper. Uncles and aunties, who are you deceiving?

10. You sleep with married men and call it fun. Don't worry dear, the girls karma would use for you are still in primary 5.

Stop selling your votes.

Stop inciting tribal wars.

Stop bribing policemen.

Stop collecting bribes.

Stop nepotism.

Stop mismanaging resources.

Stop all these as a people and i guaranfuckingtee you your lives will transform overnight.

This is what i hate most about Nigerians and religious nutjobs especially. Even with all the evidence to the contrary, they are still hoping for a miracle. With everything that is happening in Nigeria, does it sound like a country on the path of a better future? One of the most corrupt countries in the world is claiming that it has a bright future . Ok, keep dreaming. Instead of you all to roll up your sleeves, copy what other normal successful countries have done and are doing, you are busy praying and listening to fraudsters. Carry on.

Onechancearmy:
Diversity only works where there is a willingness for it. Nigeria is a rickety contraption which the British cobbled together without seeking the permission of the different tribes who were going to live together under the guise of being one country.

We're still paying for the folly of the British to this day.

I don't know a single intelligent human being who thinks that a union with a backward, illiterate, disease ridden, religiously intolerant region like Northern Nigeria is a good idea, so let's stop this unity crap.

Nigeria's existence is perfectly negotiable.

I am glad you know that diversity works in normal societies. Nigeria ain't normal which is why it fails. It is just like saying that other country's citizen do not litter but as Nigerians we can't because we are dirty people. The only reason it does not work in Nigeria is because Nigerians in Nigeria lack the basic decency and knowledge of why it is advantageous. This is how bad Nigerians are as a people. One time i showed a friend of mine in Switzerland a video on youtube of how a mob of people set a suspect on fire. You know what amazed him the most? It wasn't that it happened that shocked him. What shocked him was the fact that they took the time to video it, stand around without fear of the authorities and even had the nerve to put it on the internet. Guy, it doesn't matter if the three ethnic groups split apart. They will still find ways to fight amongst themselves.

ephi123:
In 2017 when we should be talking about automating our transport systems, we don't even have a basic NationalRail website for booking train tickets online, not to mention contactless payments on trains and buses. Our airports cannot stand next to any 21st century airport across the world in terms of quality, services or infrastructure. These are things that we should be exploring - moving to the next level.

Instead my fellow Nigerians are throwing a party because a runway is being renovated. My oh my, what a country.

My only advice to people like you is to leave that country else they corrupt your mentality too.

nnamdi1998:
To marry one of them is to honor your country and be honored in return. Even if you got all the money on earth, you won't be given this honor on your wedding day. Respect to ya'all who ve earned it.

What kind of logic is this? So only soldiers and their wives are honored on their wedding abi? Smh.

rusher14:
Whatever floats your boat.

Some see it half empty other half full.

Take your pick.

In Nigeria? It is always half empty if not completely empty.

rusher14:

And no one denies it.

Every little progress is worth lauding.

Onwards and upwards.

You call it progress, but i call it "delaying the inevitable"

GMbuharii:
dont make us laff ooo...
Otapiapia_citizen

You won't understand. Why? Your expectations and experiences are limited to say the least. There is nothing for you to look forward to. Waking up in the morning is probably the best you can hope for.

rusher14:
Until you you've been in a coma for 6 months then you realise everyday of normal living is a blessing.

Hence why i said a "healthy" normal person. Or didn't you read my post before commenting? If one should extrapolate it, it means since Nigerians are not mentally and socially healthy, things like the renovation of a runway, (I can believe i am saying this) will be astounding to them. Smh.

GMbuharii:
stfu,you are just sweating in the pants,struggling,for all to see,to sound intelligent. Afam said u a bludi S.PK..perfect description

and dun worry,when the ipobs be gone,they gonna organise their dv visa so u sophisticated cones shapes' few pros and highly educated peeps can apply and come over...buh u can keep your excess agberos and touts and ritualists and owodas to yourselves,they'd need not apply.


Op,nice one,yemi is cute.

Frustration at it's best. I am neither yoruba, igbo nor hausa. See your life. It is just too easy to dazzle you all. It doesn't take much to hold you spell bound. Lol. If you want to train a dog, just watch how the average Nigerian in Nigeria is treated and you'll be a pro in no time.

rusher14:
What is more major than a runway being rehabilitated to avert carnage?

You can also continue with the bile.

There is nothing absolutely wrong with it. What is wrong is jubillating over what should otherwise normal. It is like doing back flips just because you are breathing oxygen. Isn't it normal for a healthy person to do so?

Afam4eva:
Who asked you about your life? You can be an idiot here and dangote in real life. Who cares? What a moronic dingbat.

Doesn't change the fact that you are impoverished and will continue to be so. Fact.

rusher14:
We should be angry that a proactive government has taken action even when the Senate kicked against it?

If you want to be angry you are free to blow your top.

I on the other hand I'm mighty relieved and proud of the government's action to get it fixed as they motioned to do.

Kudos to all involved in making it a success.

Like i said, you all are easily placated. They feed you guys scraps while core and major issues fester. Carry on.

rusher14:
Why should we be angry?

You do realise even this project when initiated was bedevilled by politics as the same people who refuse to even allow a budget pass couldn't stand to see a successful rehabilitation?

It is with joy that we embrace this positive development.

This one is over and we look forward to other developments.

The fact that you don't understand why you should be angry points to the nature of an average Nigerian and why you all are still living the way you do? You should be angry that it took this long to fix. You should be angry that corruption is a big part of it because no one can tell me that they didn't see the risk in letting it stay that way for this long. You should be angry that it will continue to be like this now and forever more because Nigerians don't learn from anything. Doubt me? look back at half a century of it's history.

ElsonMorali:
Picture or you know the rest...

You won't believe. You'll say it's a stock photo. It's happened before.

rusher14:
Though normal some other government ignored it for 8 years.

Then the normal response should be anger and not admiration. You guys are so easily placated. Unbelievable.

Ngokafor:
.....Diversity is good if managed properly..but a recipe for a terrible human disaster if handled the way Nigeria/Nigerians is doing theirs..

....After 50plus years of independence,Nigeria has become a castrated and toothless 'giant'..were development has been eroded systematically over the years on the alter of ethnic and religious squabbles and injustice...Even the corruption cankerworm that has eaten deep into the system is fueled and sustained by religious and ethnic bigotry..

....I use to be a 'one Nigerianist' in the past but events over the years has opened my eyes to the reality,and that is the fact that we are better off apart..its certainly not working out.

Personally i do not give two phucks if Nigeria stays together or breaks apart. I have zero vested in it. My only grouse is that if you do not understand why you are the way you are, you are destined to make the same mistakes again.

Mantain:
wailers should simply hug transfomers

I can't believe we are celebrating what is otherwise normal. Has it gotten this bad in Nigeria? Smh.

iamexcelblog:
The US is more advanced and evolved than the species we have here. Diversity may work for them but In this part of the world, diversity is our undoing and our weakness. Very Tribal and Ethnocentric... Yet always claiming "United my arse".

Take it to the bank... We are not one and can never be one.

They became advanced as a people because of their thought process.

Afam4eva:
Nothing irks me more than coments such as this.

Oga, it's nothing new for Igbos and Yorubas to marry and deliver inter tribal offspring. For you to link this to why you think the unity of the country is non negotiable givies you away as a slowpoke (no offence). Aren't there Nigerian getting married to Ghanians, jamaicans etc? Maybe we should merge those countries too. WTF.

And it is this mentality that will keep you all under impoverished for all time. Even the U.S knows the value of diversity which is why they do the annual DV lottery. Without diversity, America would not be the super power it is today. Why you people won't learn baffles the mind.

KingLennon:
Here we all know the state of Nigeria. But as an individual you need to do your best.

Good point. But your best as a people is piiss poor to say the least. If your best was good enough, Nigeria would not be the cesspit it is today. There are no best efforts in Nigeria. Only the worst of the worst efforts.

Motherfucker2:
Liar

Show me her pictures

Lol. Ok. My advice to you is this since you think something like this is amazing. Do away with junk food, exercise daily, and sleep right. You'd be amazed at how remarkable your body will be.

KingLennon:
If she was in Nigeria, she would still be offered admission based on merit. Maybe she would not be offered admission into seven universities. I know you are trying to point out the fraud and politics involved in the academic sector.

Really? You are talking as if Nigeria is an island where no one else in the world knows what going on in the country. Guy, the internet exists and nothing is hidden. Question is, how likely is anything in Nigeria based on Merit? From employement to education. Guy, how likely?

ShawttySoFyne:
Shes married with a child and still looks this good

What's amazing about that. My wife's given birth to three kids, older than her and still looks better, slimmer and sexier. Fact.
