When i read such stories i wonder who cursed Africans with this urge to kill and conquer anything that comes out of the ocean, thats why the whites are miles ahead of us in research and development, why do you think aquariums are not lucrative in naija, naija man fit use gold fish as substitute if no fish for pot. I sure say if mermaid do mistake wash up for bar beach, na pepper soup be that.

This behaviour is not unique to Africans.

Over time, with more sensitization and economic development, these things will reduce.

Asians have a delicacy called shark fin soup. They catch a shark, cut off only the fin and throw it back into the sea.

Here's a video of thousands of fins being dried on a roof in Hong Kong: https://www.theguardian.com/world/video/2013/jan/04/shark-fins-hong-kong-rooftop-video

Also, before kerosene was discovered, whites used whale oil to light their lamps. They killed about 3 million whales in the 20th century alone.

Whites also hunt exotic animals just to stuff and mount them.

Even the venerable Charles Darwin ate most of the animals he discovered.

Pls who can trace one thread that graced front page about one man (Not in Nigeria) who assisted a shark stucked in the sand back to the sea?

Here is a typical example that proves comments by nairalanders on that thread.

Did you walk past school?

Mehn, no mind me. Was looking at big numbers recently.

grossintel:
How many US artists charge upto $100k let alone $200k? Then a relatively internationally unknown Nigerian artist is telling us he now charges $277k per show. That's how they'll be lying up and down thinking they're doing us.

I really missed a good opportunity with this crypto thingy.

I could boast of close to $40k when a unit of bitcoin was barely $1k but I wasn't even aware of the stuff. It was when I had almost finished my hard currency that one goat started explaining and then it was as high as $6k. And even then, I could still afford one but I thought it was risky as per stock market. Now, I understand it goes for as high as $26k and I don't have even $1k

The past is past.

Focus on discovering the opportunities that are present now.

The future is even more pregnant than yesterday.

No time in history could 30-something-year-olds be billionaires in large numbers.

In the nearest future there will be tons of teenage billionaires and wealth created at unprecedented scales.

His belts?

Lambo is always lambo.

They originally made tractors, and still do.

1 billion.. Access bank na wow.

Naira is funny. Just say $3m.

They have a returns policy.

So just send it back if you aren't pleased.

Not fair trying to tarnish their image for receiving what you ordered.

I don't see any happiness on her face. She might be under pressure to save him of the shame of rejection. Public proposal to a lady is a big NO to me. All the best though

Mehn, I tell you.

It's tough being a woman...

Sports Industry
Tennis-Williams, Federer, Nadal, Djokovic, Woznaski, and Sir Andy Murray
Football- no need for mentions
Basketball-Curry, James, Kwahi Leonard, Harden,
Formula 1-Lewis Hamilton, Sebastian Vettel
Do u need more?

It has to be Entertainment...

Movies and Video Games alone... and if you want to stretch it, books.

I even forgot music.

Update:

Just checked numbers...

Global film industry revenue for 2018 = $136B

--

Top 5 Leagues revenue 2018:

1. NHL (Hockey US/Canada) = $3.7B
2. NBA = $4.8B
3. Premier League = $5.3B
4. Baseball (US/Canada) = $9.5B
5. American Football = $13 Billion

So when you add tennis, Formula 1, athletics, etc they won't still come close.

We've not added video games that did $43B in 2018. And Music that did $19B

The kind of human being the world needs more of.

But Neymar "want out" this morning..

PSG wants 222million dollars+ for him

Barcelona want to offer Coutinho + Dembele + 40 Million dollars instead!!!

Mehn, these two guys will feel useless.

This one be like all those awards from Alex .

neyobills:
Lol Fulani chestbeating at its best, I won't bedevil any tribe because I know other criminals have taken advantage of the Fulani menace to cover their tracks however if there were to be a war really which won't happen by the grace of the Almighty,the Yoruba will be the lowest casualties of collateral damage,we have the easiest passage to flee if we ever do unfortunately Yoruba people NEVER flee their home soil,you can chase them half way around the world but nobody can defeat them on home soil,that is a, fact anyone can take to the bank.

The Romans, Greeks, Egyptians, Babylonians, Russians, Germans, Americans, the French, Chineese, Japanese, can all be defeated on home soil, but not the Yorubas.

Impressive.

Born2Breed:
The Fulanis were rubbished by the Kanuri's.

The Jukuns...

The Tiv's

The Edo's stopped them at Auchi....

The Yoruba's stopped them at Oshogbo...

Stop the hype about Fulani's...their only advantage then were their arrows and horses...aside that they are COWARDS...who only sneak to attack when their opponents are sleeping. Real men don't attack you when you turn your back.....

My brother honour no dey for war...

Even the great George Washington sneaked across a frozen river, at night, to attack British forces while they slept...on Christmas night, of all nights.

Surprise attacks is fair game.

No one does man to man again.

Even the almighty US military will bomb you to hell, from a safe distance (now using robots), before venturing to commit boots on the ground.

The nature of warfare these days is to commit the most one sided massacre of your foes possible, by any means necessary.

If it means surprising them in their sleep, or annihilating them in an ambush, so be it.

@OP

You forgot TESTIMONIALS.

If possible, video.

Lamasta:
Most foreigners find it difficult to trust Nigerians irrespective of the business whether legitimate or not

We import $40B worth of stuff per year. We also export about the same value of goods.

These are transactions with foreigners...

Ighalo my man was strolling around the field

What should he have done?

He wasn't fed any balls...

Emmyk:
Hello everyone.

So, I will be going to Ghana briefly next month (7th to 9th). I want to know the vital document(s) I am to take along with me aside my Nigerian passport so I won't be ripped off at the airport due to my ignorance.

I have booked an airline tickets for a round trip. I will be going to meet a client whom I will be staying with all through my stay.

Thank you.

Aside the Yellow Fever certificate, I don't believe there's anything else.

For people who take you for granted, they also need to see that you're equally capable of being mean and unreasonable.

Your offers for peace get interpreted as weakness if you're not capable of, or willing to dish out discomfort.

Why is the US kissing up to North Korea today?

holllandis:
That ball should have been passed to Musa in first half

Very useless selfish bastard

Musa was on his blind side...

Besides, his role is to strike and not always look to pass.

Some days ago people were complaining of Musa being too unselfish

Vikzz:
sex with my girl who isn't sex driven, anytime we start like this in 3mins she'll be like it's making her wants to vomit, recently again I tried doing it with her and she complained but I didn't listen bfr I know it she started seeing few drops of blood from her vagina! please what could have caused That?

I'm thinking maybe it's her period but on a norms her period shows around 25 to 30th of the month but this is 14th of the month
I never one father pikin o God

checkpoint:
Please Who knows why i always fall sick after sex?

Most times i have sex (good sex) i always fall sick for like 3 days....

I don't use sex stimulants or agbo and I would 10 to 15mins even more while sometimes very short but babes testify they really enjoyed it and buzzing to come back.

But I'll be giving excuses because I've got no stamina, this mad headache and chills, even this has made me not to like sex

You have a jealous spiritual wife.

Jokes apart, might just be because of the exertion.

Do you exercise sometimes?

sarrki:
He edited from Fulani herdsmen to gunmen

Mr President that’s the way to go

You are an elder statesman


Let the authorities saddled with the responsibility do their work

More like his social media guy.

These guys don't run their accounts — Trump included.

Mitjyland:
Rorh is a very useless coach.

The nest lineup he should have done is to put Mikel in that Midfield - Ndidi and Etebo can't hold ball.

Then drop Ighala and play Ahmed Musa as a top 9. Iwobi and Chukweze both wide.

UZoho or Ezenwa are far better goalkeepers too.

Henry and co make mouth pass you...until they got coaching jobs.

MissJoy29:
You are right sir. But getting to this point should mean something, right? They were playing as if they are still in group stage. They didn't play well at all today abeg.

Individually, our players played their hearts out.

But as a team, we didn't function optimally because the Algerians used high pressing, so we couldn't move the ball around with ease.

We should have done exactly the same to them.

They just had better tactics.

TheCongo2:
I don't think they will be a 3rd and 4th place fixture.

7 PM, Wednesday...

MissJoy29:
They have done what they know how to do best: disappoint us!

Some teams didn't qualify for this competition. Some others went home from the group stage.

And others were knocked out earlier.

No one wins all the time.

Kelvin30286063:
It has happened at last. Bye bye Nigeria

We still get 3rd place fixture.

All goal be goal.

After all na awoof dem score.
