No, you shouldn't compare them to African countries compare them to their fellow European countries. France revolted against their monarchy the English did not is France greater than the UK?

Really?

The Peasants’ Revolt 1381
It was one of the great revolts of medieval Europe, only three decades since the Black Death, and many English subjects were angered by the poll tax.

Led by Wat Tyler, rebels marched from Kent and Essex to London. Some leaders even challenged the existence of the class system. When assembled at Blackheath, Lollard priest John Ball preached equality for all. The Archbishop of Canterbury and key royal officials were killed, but King Richard II reasserted the Crown’s control. Promises made were later reneged on, and Wat Tyler was killed, along with hundreds of others. But feudalism was on its way out, and the plight of many peasants did improve.

The First Barons' War (1215–1217) was a civil war in the Kingdom of England in which a group of rebellious major landowners (commonly referred to as barons) led by Robert Fitzwalter waged war against King John of England. The conflict resulted from King John's disastrous wars against King Philip II of France, which led to the collapse of the Angevin Empire, and John's subsequent refusal to accept and abide by Magna Carta, which John had sealed on 15 June 1215.

I think it's 'made' for the gullible Nigerian market where little knowledge of physics applies.

Budaatum, do you still believe your "strong woman = strong world" mantra?

Out of interest, did you have a bad mother who showed you the wrong model for women?

Hmm. Perhaps we need to start reporting the liars and fakenewsers on Nairaland for cyber bullying too.

Seun should take note and enforce his rules.

You need to go and educate yourself on how men have used this your stupid belief to oppress women all through history.

I can just about see you arguing that Europeans were created to have spiritual authority over Africans too, and that I should see how badly African countries are doing now they are independent.

Kemistri3:
a) should I approach him and try to reason?

And I assume you'd arrogantly subtly let him know he is being unreasonable?

A better option is to ask where you failed so you can pass next time.

Dude is just a pig. And no, there are no credible reports of them divorcing, yet.

There is, thankfully, no honour amongst thieves.

The Asian Bank Award must be for the most scamming African bank. They likely award it to the bank that helps scam Nigerians the most.

DMerciful:
His votes were inflated by swapping Obi's votes and altering some.

I so wish the above were true though I know it obviously isn't, but if it were, the link below is warning so the same thing don't happen next time.

DeadCountry:
Nama brain, you think you know Igbo land than Igbos themselves? These are Fulani enablers and every igbo knows what that means.

You mean Igbos enabled Fulanis to kill Igbos in Igboland?

Now that would be interesting.

DMerciful:
The election was rigged, everybody knkws it except those pretending not to

You'd be here in 2027 claiming the election was rigged then too I bet. In fact, I bet you wouldn't even bother to vote because you think your pvc is useless in advance.

My hope is that those who think like you do are few.

DMerciful:
The judiciary was compromised! All evidences were either ignored or technically knocked out with the excuse that they were not timely filed

Are you a trump supporter too? He too blames everyone else but his dumb self for not winning the last US election.

I find it irresponsible and depowering of the self to blame others instead of finding out where you went wrong and doing better next time.

DMerciful:
You can choose to play the ostrich but there's consequences for nonchalancy, docility and carelessness

I think it is you playing the ostrich by refusing to accept that Nigerians voted and the winner won.

I personally can't understand why Nigerians would vote for APC after 8 years of Buhari, but here we are, reaping the consequence of "nonchalancy, docility and carelessness" of the majority who elected the president.

Thankfully, na democracy we de, and the next election is in 3 years time when we get another chance to resit the exam again. Hopefully, you won't be here claiming the winner rigged the election if your preferred or the better candidate loses because you didn't do what would make them win.

OneCandleAway:
We are talking about the one whose policies make life easier for the masses. If life is easier for tge masses there'll be less crime and negative vices that can affect the rich.

Life isn't only about you. Sometimes think of those below.

Oh! You are talking about the ones who come down from heaven like angels from God, my bad.

I personally don't know any Nigerian leader whom I can claim cares about the masses more than they seem to care about themselves. I most definitely do not think a billion van governor cares about the masses more than they care about themselves, but as you say, life isn't only about me, though I think those below should think more carefully before they vote next time so they don't elect a satan who doesn't care about them.

CharleyBright:
Are farmers in your country going to farms anymore because of insecurity?

Farmers in my community are going to farms.

We have so many lazy fuqs who want to reap without sowing, so we formed vigilante to catch the modafuqers, and after we caught a few and shariad them, the rest of the lazy fuqs left town or became farm labour.

This is what people who don't want to eat sawdust do. They get off their lazy ass and grow their own food.

Well done you.

Golan007:
Yeah, it couldn't be his kinsmen.

I bet it was his kinsmen.

Some gunmen suspected to be herdsmen

My cousin told me last night that Igbo people stole all the metal along Lagos-Ibadan Expressway.

"Haba", I said. "Igbo will be stealing the metal on Lagos-Ibadan Expressway and we Yorubas will just be looking and not be stealing our own?"

"Ah, what do you know?" He asked me.

"Cousin", I said. "I know you are a tribal bigot!"


Please change "kidnap" to "murder" in the below. And may the dead rest in peace.

budaatum:
The thought of Fulani kidnapping in Enugu or my own Yoruba land is just comical and for the ignorant as far as I'm concerned.

I've always said I would learn some Fulfude before becoming a kidnapper, so when I kidnap you you'd yell cow instead of looking for me amongst yourselves.

Thing is, that's probably too much effort on my part since most would yell cow as soon as they hear kidnap anyway, the bunch of lazy fuqs!

But I'm sure you'd wake up to the fact someday that we've been kidnapping yourselves.

DMerciful:
You really believe IREV was shutdown for no reason? The results that were changed with tipEx doesn't matter? The lack of transparency doesn't matter?

All this stuff you mention was raised in court by my Obi and Atiku and the judge threw it out.

If you want more transparency than you currently got, start working now so no one can tipex you. I don't do sour grapes.

ovieigho:
so which of them put food on your table

Neither of them put food on my table, and nor do I expect them to.

From the sweat of my brow does my food get on my table, and not by the sweat off the brow of some others.

DMerciful:
1986 Maradona got away with it because there is no replay or VAR. Such thing won't happen today.

Same way INEC introduced IREV but because they were compromised, the shut it down. Bottomline is, if a people are not determined to do the right thing, they won't.

If we look on and condone cheating, we're destroying our country and thats why Nigeria is retrogressing. There are some countries where compromising the elections is a serious criminal offense but in Nigeria, we hail people who rig elections. Same way we celebrate heads of states like Buhari who are coupists even though coup is treasonable, doesn't matter if it succeeds or not

I am very certain that if you provide credible evidence where it needs to be considered that our current president rigged the elections we would not be celebrating him and would kick him out of Aso Rock, but barring such evidence, I am not taking your word for it that Tinubu rigged the elections.

My Obi lost, period. Next election, I should work harder instead of blaming my opponent for beating me.

My regards to mama. And well done you.

wiseoneking:
You teenagers on nairaland, Seun need to do something about this. Your comments are very childish. You should concentrate to make up your WAEC and NECO deficiency instead of spending a lot of your time on nairaland.

Happy teen birthday to me then, I guess, though I probably did WAEC before you were born and long before NECO was invented.

5 Reasons While Tinubu Will NEVER Be President. Lol!

maasoap:
Millions of people are living in the cities. Even some of those who are living in the semi rural areas don't have access to farmlands

I grew up in Lagos. We did not have farmland so we made do with the small land we had.

I live in a city now and don't have any land at all. And if I tell you what I sometimes plant in my tiny kitchen cupboard police will come and arrest me.

DMerciful:
Provided someone like Tinubu is not rigged in again, the person will do well.

Infact, anybody that wins a free and fair election will perform. Having enough legitimacy helps a govt succeed. Tinubu lacks legitimacy because he did not win

Do you watch football? There was this match that Argentina played against England and a certain Maradona scored with his hand of God. Apparently, he had been practising it before, and it worked again and Argentina won while England is till today lamenting that Argentina did not legitimately win.

My point is, that cheating might be the same way Tinubu won, and he now occupies Aso Rock, changing our National Anthem and raising vat, and he will serve his 4 years, and 8 if he repeats the same trick in 2027, and I don't see how he could be more legitimate than that.

If we want free and fair election where the winner does not win by a foul, we, as in we the people, must make our elections free and fair and devoid of hand balls ourselves so our leaders are legitimate, instead of hoping politicians will all of a sudden be struck by the Gods and have clean hands.

alphaNomega:
Lol. I actually don't care if you do. Bye

I very much care that you don't care. If people like you had bothered to use your pvc instead of thinking your vote doesn't count, perhaps we might now have a better leader and gari would be cheaper.

My hope is that there are fewer people like you and that most do make their pvc count instead of coming here to wail about gari.
