True. But such attitude will only leave one ignorant and in the dark. That's the choice some make. And you being different is deserving of respect and a following. |

bemeruca: That is different from Yorkshire region where the spot to fill is given to non whites.
There is discrimination in one no discrimination in the other. They would both be discriminatory, since both would involve not hiring some who want the job to hire those who don't want the job. And in UK it will be against the law as it stands, which is why what you posted states the hirer wants to change the law, which he hasn't yet. That said, it is well recognised in UK that the police force should reflect the community it polices. So if non-whites are not applying they will be encouraged to apply, just as South Easterners should be encouraged to join the Nigerian Army if they are not applying. No one wants an army full of Northerners, say, nor a UK police force full of whites. |

This is the sort of thread that makes me miss home. I'd simply go to my farm and pluck oranges and pawpaws to eat, or buy a basket of avocado or mangoes in the market.
Now I'm left buying expensive pawpaw in the market. The lime are a pound a bowl.

bemeruca: You could have just said what you posted has nothing to do with what we are discussing.
Do I have to explain that to you? How is the allocation of military personnel recruitment of a particular region the same as blocking a certain race to give advantage to other race in a particular region the same thing? So, you don't see the allocation of military personnel recruitment to a particular region, is the same as the refusal to recruit whites, which can't exactly happen in UK? Would they not discriminate against other regions to recruit from the region they want to, just as you claim Yorkshire Police are doing in refusing whites for ethnic minorities? But I'm not in the least surprised. As usual, your maths is racist, and only English language lessons can save you. Perhaps read the Equalities Act 2010. It does not only protect ethnic minorities, but everyone, regardless of religion or belief, disability, age, sex, sexual orientation and gender reassignment. |

Ayoefa: Do they have to interview everyone? It's called sampling, you don't need to interview everyone to get a feel for what's going on.
Some people here in the US, especially those who have been here for a long time, including myself, are either moving back to Nigeria or planning to. Most are just looking for ways to make a living in Nigeria before returning home. If they sampled the more than a million people who refuse to return to Nigeria it would make more sense, instead of just sampling a few who do want to return to Nigeria. But I'll help you. Ask those in this thread when they are returning to Nigeria, and come tell us what they say. KennethOkonkwo: And your own opinion too is few put of millions Follow link above and ask them too please, and post their opinion here. |

IjeBos: Yeah, esp. given who doesn't honor those rules. Having said that, I do appreciate he was trying to push back on what he thought was tribalism. That is admirable. And I could see where he got that perspective. When I initially read your post I was curious where you were going as well, but assumed given that you are generally thoughtful about race/tribalism, I thought you may have been pointing out some hypocrisy or there was more I was missing. He should have asked you to clarify first. Race/tribalism? Me? Now, that's a laugh. I was pointing out bemeruca's hypocrisy, and moreso his lack of understanding. |

IjeBos: Your eyes have been closed then. It's a pervasive tactic of people on your "side". Bemeruca and others have done the same thing you claim people don't do here. They would call me a terrorist because I am from the East and Igbo or make other tribalistic jokes. I do agree tribalism as is racism is for the weak minded. Can you believe the gull calling gentleman agreement in a thread where people don't even obey Nairaland rules. |

basilico: Read that article , there is more there than I posted. If Pam Bondi was t murking around she would have also released tbat I stead of 200 pages that are in the public domain. So, you admit Pam Bondi is murking around and has not released the Epstein files, but now want to claim the 200 pages in the public domain is the Epstein files? Have you forgotten you said the below? basilico: Still on the Epstein no show . How could Pam Bondi only release 200 pages from. FBI. I don't see Pam Bondi lasting if she don't release it all. basilico: Judicial Watch sues Pam Bondi demanding she releases Epstein list. Sad it has come to this She been on Fox over 70 times. By now there should have been 2 million indictments, not s single one |

bemeruca: They are doing that. No they are not doing that! The article you linked says he "has consistently pushed to reform laws", but the laws have obviously not moved. Chief Constable John Robins of West Yorkshire Police has consistently pushed to reform laws across the country in order to boost the number of ethnic minorities in his force. |

People from Yorkshire; white, black, yellow, brown etc. Apply for something, you remove white application. That's discrimination They are not removing white applications! That would be illegal in UK.

TUANKU: What if the assets are not worth much? For example let's assume his total assets plus cash in the bank is barely 50 million naira, waht then happens? Just asking to learn. Then they take what he has and he is in debt for the rest. They can afterall take his future earnings too. Go read up on Alex Jones’ defamation case that resulted in a $1.4 billion verdict against him for calling the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting a hoax. He too doesn't have $1.4 billion.
