₦airaland Forum

Tumisang: By white Saffers, I suppose you mean those who were farmers in Zim? The same people who were tortured, kicked out of their farms and arrested...in your mind these same okes had power to even try to mess with Zim's economy? How exactly? Pray tell...

You (assuming you're nigerian), Zimbos and majority of other Africans...have land, resources and the economy in your hands.

But still millions of you choose to infest a country that is being led by cowards. Why? Whats wrong with living in your "economically prosperous" countries?

bebe2: frontpage?? u forget Afam na moderator here, to him this is not the mesg he wants to hear.

if i had wrote, '' am in the uk and hungry'' this post for don land there tay tay

am going to do a post about what i luv about the uk, here is a taster for u,

did u know that know person dies in this country with there being an inquiry unless the person has been ill for a long time. all sudden death are investigated by the crowns coroner. nobody dies in vain. they look into it see the cause and sometimes a law or policy will come out of it.

the thing dey sweet me too much, see procedure

bebe2: I am so angry I can barely type, there is been lots of threads on this forum about the uk, I just saw another one on the frontpage and cudnt help but notice all the insult and jest. Pls tell me, wats wit the uk bashing? This is typical Poor man say beer dey bitter.


There is no doubt the UK is ten times better than nigeria in all ways yes n u can quote me on dat.

Go to nigerian embassy in the uk,see the que of pple who want a Visa to 9ja and compare it with those in the british embassy in nigeria.


And pls dnt play d slave trade card its been over used, it was a horrible event that tore african apart and its effect are still being felt till this day. But the blame lay both ways. fact is africans are greedy, white pple didn't go into villages kidnapping pple it was the chiefs and otheres that did dat the europeans just bought in bulk.

Back to present day, have u seen where the prime minister lives, my mama kitchen big pass the prime minister own, but 9ja politicians their dog house big pass d average family home.

Yes, its annoying but ur anger shud be directed towards nigerian dat are looting ur country not uk politicians dat sit all day in parliament fighting for a better life for their constituents.


we all know how much he earns. Some Mps went to jail for expenses fraud, how mch fraud £5k some no even reach and they were punished but politicians in nigeria still millions and billions and wen una see dem for street una go dey hail, baba o, na u biko etc.

The uk is a country where all are Almost equal, its not perfect but its damn better than 9ja.

All citizens eat frm the national cake and I mean all irrespective of colour or disability.


So don't come here and show ur ignorance!!

Am Done.

Moderator as e be say u sabi carry post wey dey curse uk put for front page, oya no do partial

Olodostein: A word is enough for the wise. See Yah Honey .

Afam4eva: Lol I thought about this too. These British people can go to any length to achieve their aim. If you go to Guardian UK, Sky News and BBC now, you will see giant banners of Murray. These guys have no shame in their game. I wonder why Switzerland has not been making noise since Federer has been winning grand slam to grand slam. Same with Spain, US etc. Only losers celebrate like this. Tony Blair dey craze.

dros: ^{the british govt are responsible for keeping over 80% of nigerians in poverty - they have got Nigeria neck deep in debt, the money their banks make from the interest generated from these loans alone is what they are using to prop up their welfare state and provide a decent standard of livng for their own people while the vast majority of Nigerians live in poverty as if that isn't bad enough they now expect those who want to escape this poverty to part with a whopping £3,000 - how many average british people can afford to part with £3,000 for a visa?}

I dont think you know what you are saying. The UK sustains itself on its tax(all types included) so dont know how much naija money is needed to help UK economy. But ask yourself this. If you are asked to put your hand in fire are you going to do it. Exactly. Nigerians -especially those in power are EXTREMELY CORRUPT that there is no considertaion for others. If this government spends a quater of it generated revenue on the country, no one will leave naija. A family of 6 will travel to the UK on first class excluding shopping, accommodation in a 5 star hotel and so on spending at least 4.5milion naira on one trip haba!
The next question is what is in the UK that is not in naigeria? A lot.
I work in the NHS, and during my night on call a 2yr old was brought in after choking on an orange segment. He had no respiratory effort, no heart beat and on our (myself and the paediatric consultant) arrival was dead. CPR was commenced before we arrived and luckily the anaesthetic registrar was in the Accident and emergency. He managed to remove the the orange segment but still nothing. The boy was intubated, chest compression continued, we drilled into the large bone of the lower leg, put a tube in and gave adrenaline as no vein could be found as his heart has stopped. His heart began to beat. Chest compression continued until his heart could sustain itself. Ventilation continued. Kids retrieval team arrived and trasfered him to a bigger hospital. He came back to us 2 days later still alive and went home after 4 days of observation. If he had been in Naija he would have been in the grave by now. Yet you compare Naija to the UK!!!!. You are gravely mistaken.
The UK government has policies that work for the UK. Of course i pray and hope that Naija will be better, but from my recent visit (and please dont start that I should come back home and do something, i've been thru that before), we all inhale toxic carbonmonoxide from ur generators, people die prematurely yet people say 'he was well nothing was wrong with him before he died'. Some look for food in gutters (at least governmet give out dole in the UK), others walk barefooted, catch all kinds of diseases to mention few. The rich are blindfolded by their riches thinking the world in is their hands. A nation filled with oppressors. Motorcyclist (yes i understand they can be dangerous) taken off the road blocking their only means of income without consideration to why a graduate would be riding Okada. So you now want him to turn to armed robbery. AND YOU SAY NAIJA IS BOOMING. I REST MY CASE. THIS IS JUST THE TIP F THE ICEBERG

ballabriggs: How does this your "awareness" link to the strategy for development and underdevelopment?

ballabriggs: Bla bla bla, oya what are you going to do about it? Sit on nairaland and moan all day? Na your own worst pass?

Why not go and start World War 3 with the awka made pistol wey dey your village.

grandlexuz: Yeah you are right! Nations are partnering with each other. Venezuela just became the 51st state of the USA. China has finally given in to the allegations of currency manipulation by the US. They have adopted a single currency to be called ballabriggs..lol Russia too has finally given in to pressure from the West to allow NATO teach Bashad Allasad of Syria the lesson that was taught to Gadaffi. Mugabe is finally handing back farms seized from Whites farmers..Finally the Mao Mao fighters who thought they were badly tortured during the fight for Independence; have turned down the British compensation. They just realised they could not have gotten a better treatment at the hands of the colonialists 50 years ago!

ballabriggs: I disagree, he is. He hides under "consciousness" to spread some defensive and defeatist ideologies just like the UKIP, BNP, EDL and the Woolwich guys sect. The luck we have is that he has no power. You don't come here moaning all day and try to force your trash down the throats of people.

We know our history but we are also looking forward. The problem with people like him is that he is still stuck in the historic times moaning over it.

ballabriggs: Mr man you are just moaning all about the forum. No one cares about this your 'oppressor' defensive mindset. Nations are moving, partnering and integrating while you keep on moaning about "oppressors". Why not get yourself together and look for a way to defeat your "oppressor" or are you too young for that?

Get a life, it is the same mentality in the Woolwich guys who see everyone as an enemy- them against us. Why not take your life back to the colonial times so you can defeat your "oppressors"? I don't need you to preach this your defeatist and defensive ideology to me, I have a brain to think. I have a brain to find solutions to problems and not the brain that searches for "enemies and oppressors". We look forward, there is the challenge to bring millions of our people out of poverty. That is what we face today and what we seek to find a solution to.

So Mr, please shift if you can't make a better argument.

ballabriggs: Organised in stealing the wealth. Why not you use your brain to steal the wealth? Oh I forgot, you still want your wedding in Dubai.
