The Israel of today is the same as of old stop using Russia to catch cruise.

Mumu. Even if the black Israelites came down from heaven and showed you their black faces, you will still disagree. Brainwashed dunce with low IQ. Have you even heard of the Black Madonna? Village otondo. Instead of you to imbibe knowledge, you dey there dey fck up. Ewu.

Time dey go o, make the best money move of your career while you can.

Unlike you, for him life is not all about money.

With the way you people worship money in this country, it’s no wonder there’s so much corruption.

I’m optimistic it’s better that way than being pessimistic. If Nigeria had compassionate leaders in the 70’s Fela wouldn’t be signing …
What made Nigeria looked better then was the structure laid by British, military came and started killing it gradually those structures lasted till 1999 before things started going south.

The “structure laid by the British” did not teach the BRITISH-TRAINED military boys that it’s wrong to stage military coups, ba?

Idiot.

Mr “structure laid by British”.

Na that structure dey f.uck us up here, so stuff it.

Una people no get structure before them come?

Follow follow..

In ‘Teacher Don’t Teach Me Nonsense’, the great Fela sang

“Oyinbo teach us many things, but dem no teach say for England, army no fit take over”.

After somebody loots 100 billion naira, he will go around and donate 5 billion from that amount so you can love him and trust him and vote him in again to loot 500 billion.

Obi is a business man, and this is all investment to him.

If he had no presidential ambition, do you think he would be going around donating money like this?

FIFA Ranking: Nigeria ahead of Ivory Coast, Haaland’s Norway after biggest move in 11 years



Nigeria has moved 14 places in the latest FIFA Ranking, sitting well ahead of AFCON champions Cote d'Ivoire, and Erling Haaland's Norway.

Nigeria’s Super Eagles are flying high after being officially ranked as the third-best team in Africa in the recently released FIFA World Ranking.





Nigeria soars in FIFA Ranking
According to the latest release by FIFA, the Super Eagles are now ranked 28th in the world following the run in Cote d’Ivoire.

Nigeria finished runners-up after a painful 2-1 defeat to host nation Cote d’Ivoire in a widely watched final last Sunday.


But despite the heartbreak, the Jose Peseiro-led young side earned plenty of admirers as they soared through the tournament before missing out narrowly on a fourth title.

Nigeria’s move from 42nd in the world to 28th is the highest move for the Super Eagles in 11 years, with the team matching the May 9, 2013 position.



The Super Eagles are now ranked behind Morocco, who moved one spot to 12th and Senegal, who are ranked 17th after moving three places.

Elsewhere on the ranking
Nigeria is now ahead of Erling Haaland’s Norway, ranked 46th in the world, and African champions, Cote d’Ivoire, who moved 10 places to 39th.

So Ghana is not even in the top 60 in the world with all their mouth?

Kushites:
Are you minding these COMMUNIST ILLITERATES?

Soviet-era communists in disguise!

Any bold move by the private sector they frown on. Any good project must be government-run. If it is private run, it means in their heads that some private guy is chopping their money.

Yet this is a capitalist economy modelled after the most capitalist USA!

You have NO PROBLEM with private white-owned multinationals like Unilever, Shell, etc coming here and raking in profits while producing a service, but a Nigerian firm does it, and all hell breaks loose! He is chopping our money!

Right before our very eyes, thanks to the Dangote Refinery, Nigeria has become the biggest manufacturer and exporter of refined petroleum products in Africa - a massive step towards industrialisation, and these BUSHMEN on nairaland are here typing streams of rank ignorance.

It's just pitiful.

The Dangote refinery boasts a capacity of 650,000 barrels of crude oil per day and is expected to meet Nigeria's domestic demand for petroleum products and help Nigeria save the much-needed foreign exchange currently spent on the importation of such petroleum products.

Nigeria currently imports more than 80% of its refined petroleum products. She is the largest importer of refined petroleum products in Africa.

Local production by the Dangote refinery will therefore massively cut the country’s import bill.

''According to the Central Bank of Nigeria, the cost (including freight) of petroleum products imports into Nigeria doubled over a five-year period from about US$8.4 billion in 2017 to US$16.2 billion (indicating an annual average of US$11.1 billion), before rising further to US$23.3 billion by end-2022.

The central bank says the average annual cost of petroleum products imports to Nigeria could reach US$30 billion by 2027 if the country continues to rely on petroleum imports.

This money can now potentially be saved with Dangote refinery plugging the supply shortfall.''

..........


Yet we have this parade of semi-literate, ill-exposed professional malcontents pouring sickening invective on the refinery!

I mean, who did this to you people?

I weak for them brother..

You can’t please Nigerians.

dalongjnr:
Let them go and collect the one in the hands of bandits and Fulani/Muslim terrorist that have been attacking Mangu LGC and plateau state at large.
God bless the weapon fabricator, if not,bandits could have killed and take over their communities.

Are you sure it’s not from that Plateau factory the Fulanis herdsmen and other bandits get their weapons?

Trust no one in this country!

In my encounters with foreigners overseas, be they Africans, Asians or Europeans, and regardless of whether they ‘like’ Nigerians or not, there’s always that look in their eyes when I tell them I’m Nigerian.

A look that says “You’re from a big, great country”.

It’s not necessarily always a friendly look, but most times, it is.

Good stuff.

They also need to fish out all those evil characters terrorising the great people of Plateau state, and eliminate them.

I’m starting to feel some improvement in the security situation.

Long may it continue.

Kenyan woman says she wants Nigeria to colonise the rest of Africa so that all Africans can reason like Nigerians.

Historical illiteracy. We don’t know who we are. We have no clue of our history beyond the last 60 to 100 years.

Compare that to the average Chinese or English person that knows their history as a people over the last 1,500 years at least.

China adopted Confucianism as a national ethics code based on the ancient philosophies of Confucius.

The English adopted the Protestant Ethic based on ancient European christian heritage.

Who do we know from our history or care to know, to draw inspiration from?

Nobody.

Even our precolonial technology we ignore. Something that should be the basis for true industrialisation.

We manufactured glass before the whites came. We used to manufacture and export soap to Europe in the 17th and 18th century, to the point that Portugal banned the importation of soap from West Africa in order to boost their local soap manufacturing industry.

We INVENTED iron smelting here in Nigeria.

The oldest iron smelting site on Earth is in Lejja, south east Nigeria, dated to over 25,000 years old.

Google it because I know you DON’T know anything about it.

Benin City was described by Dutch visitors as being among the world’s most beautiful and best planned cities, complete with streetlights and underground drainage, in addition to being crime-free, in the 1600s.

So much rich history, yet the average Nigerian thinks we were primitive savages in the bush who were ‘civilised’ by white people.

When you don’t know who you are, or what your ancestors accomplished, and inherit a colonialist narrative of your ancestors’ insignificance, worshipping foreign gods and adopting foreign systems of doing everything, you will have a fundamental disconnect with your own ancestors and people, with your very own HUMANITY and that of your people, and that fuels alienation and inferiority complex, which fuel corruption and lack of integrity.

Gistsnaijamedia:
Reno Omokri, a socio-poIitical analyst, has faulted President Bola Tinubu’s meeting with the Super Eagles of Nigeria.

Following their performance at the just concluded 2023 Africa Cup of Nations, AFCON, in Ivory Coast, where they finished second, the President met with the players in Abuja on Tuesday.

https://gists9ja.com.ng/2024/02/14/honour-to-super-eagles-tinubu-erred-reno-omokri/

Very deceptive headline.

Reno is not against honouring the players.

All he did was suggest that in future the govt should promise them those gifts prior to the game as motivation for them to play to win.

He said the Ivorians were more motivated than the Eagles on the pitch.

Dobodobo04:
We have hosted it twice before. We have also hosted a youth World Cup, Nigeria 99.

Let’s improve our infrastructure first, boost our megawatt, improve our rails, fix our roads, improve security, so when visitors come, they experience organic beauty. You also don’t want lights going off during matches or some bunch of foreigners getting kidnapped.

If we just do gra gra, host, build white elephant stadiums, etc, will be waste of money and won’t benefit Nigeria.

We don’t want to waste billions building stadiums, only for the stadiums to go moribund after 5 weeks of usage.

Cool.

Zonefree:
The one we co-hosted in 2000 nko? Abi dem never born you then?

Dude, that was 24 years ago.

Dinosaur.

This year's Africa Cup of Nations enjoyed the highest viewing numbers in its 67-year history - thanks to bigger broadcasting and commercial deals, and social media buzz. Almost two billion people are said to have watched worldwide.

Analysts hope the global appreciation for Africa's footballing flair will translate into more starting slots for African teams at future World Cups.

As it stands, Africa has only nine World Cup spots to Europe's 13, despite the fact these two continents have a near-identical number of Fifa-affiliated countries.

African national teams have in the past complained their salaries and bonuses have not been paid.

uvie66:
the question you should be asking is Nigeria qualifications on the same par with the United Kingdom?

What an ignorant thing to type.

What do they teach in British law schools that is different from the same Common Law system you inherited from them?

Do Nigerian graduates not travel and excel in those places?

Nigerian standards are even higher, from my experience.

Jman06:
I wish the UK lawyers could even go further to take over practice of human rights laws, electoral laws, criminal laws etc. It'll be so interesting because I trust the white man to do the right thing no matter whose ox is gored.

Unlike our corrupt charge and bail lawyers, the UK lawyers would not be taking bribes from government and wealthy individuals to pervert the course of justice.

Slave air head.

The only reason you can read and write today is because we gained independence in 1960 and our leaders began building thousands and thousands of schools under the Universal Primary Education (UPE) policy which raised literacy rate from 5% in 1960, after a century of British looting and theft of your resources which left Nigeria an undeveloped BUSH at independence.

Nigerian leaders raised that literacy rate to just over 70% so far. Were it not for them, you would be a village illiterate today. Because mass education was NOT a policy of the colonial administration.

Which is why most of our grandparents were village illiterates.

Look around you and tell me ONE infrastructure or industry or even major hospital that was built by the British in their time here.

One thing you mentally colonised, dumbass white worshipping Nigerians need to understand is that the ONLY REASON a white country will come here to rule or control you is because they want to EXPLOIT YOU.

They’ve been doing this for centuries, yet your thick skulls still see them as angels.

I actually suspect they did some occult thing on you guys to make you so subservient and trusting of them, despite all the terrible atrocities they committed against you and your ancestors, including looting your ancient treasures after burning down your cities and palaces, and mass murdering your people in various colonial invasions.

They actually have your stolen bronze treasures proudly displayed in their museums right now!

Where are the “honest British lawyers and judges” in confronting that theft and brigandage?

Honest fuckries.

British airways and virgin Atlantic can enter Nigeria but air peace can't enter UK.

Bad government with a touch of tribalism

Air Peace has landing rights in UK.

TheWinterBird:
Is it everytime they want to be changing coaches? The man led then to this point. He should be retained. I'm sure he will examine his mistakes and do better next time.

You are “sure”.

Why are you “sure”?

Coaches tend to have a philosophy that defines their playing style.

For this guy it is Mourinho-style Park the Bus system.

You cannot be “sure” that he will try any other system since this system got him a renewed contract after the semi final.

Or that he will even know what he’s doing if he tries a different playing style..

merits:
Atleast he has learnt from his mistakes.

How the hell do you know that?

He told you?

Smh

Tochi360:
Haa them no dey ban people for here

mikeapollo:
Very useless government! How does this benefit the masses that are suffering as a result of the terrible policy options of this clueless government.
You cannot impress anybody with useless giveaways to Super Eagles

Go f.uck your mother there, animal bastard.

Those boys went out there and put their lives and limbs at risk bringing honour and glory to their country, while a f.ucking dunce like who only cares about his own belly has the nerve to type that vomit.

Name me ONE THING you have ever done for Nigeria in your useless life?

Worthless idiot.

Omoluabi16:
Those kidnappers though. Hard to imagine they were born of women. Once innocent,helpless like every child. People will talk about the broken system, but this is just pure evil. Hope they meet their waterloo in the most painful way.

They are evil-hearted, demonic individuals.

Sometimes I just wish for the return of military rule.

I’m done with this shit.

A good, no nonsense military ruler that will step in, and set up military tribunals on his first day of office, to try kidnappers and bandits, and send them straight to firing squad.

Within ONE MONTH, all this criminality will end in Nigeria.

Yes they should.

Definitely.

If it will save us from Aisha Yesufu’s screeching voice…

christistruth01:
That is a Lie

Nigeria has one of the biggest Gas Reserves in the world

The German President wasn’t in Nigeria to Play

If Nigeria was poor how could so many Politicians afford their kids to school in the UK at the

Rate of £20,000 per annum Per Child?

Will you sell the gas reserves in one day?

Even if you have gas it doesn't mean you will be super wealthy immediately.

It will take years and even a decade or more of selling it to see appreciable impact on the economy.
