The people you are preaching to DO NOT wish to see Nigeria progress if it's not Peter Obi in charge, or some other Igbo.

That's the issue.

They're hardcore tribalists, and think it's their ''turn'' to rule, even though they only comprise 18% of the Nigerian population, and therefore need to build bridges, not burn them.

They're deluded.
Politics › Re: Beautiful Pictures From Onitsha Today (photos) by Catapault:
Those Onitsha streets would have been so beautiful if they'd just built sidewalks for pedestrians with covered drainage.

The open gutter with no sidewalks just fcks up the whole thing, and is the ONLY difference between that city and any city in Portugal, Spain, or Brazil today.

Just sort it out once for all and stop messing up, Anambra.

Stop comparing yourselves to Ibadan and old these old cities.

Onitsha is already built up. It just needs that finishing touch, to be world class.

Be trendsetters.

I speak as a detribalised Nigerian.
wink

Kigali, Rwanda.
We want to see Onitsha like this.

Ok, that's mostly vi and lekki which is a very small fraction of lagos, I stay on the mainland and work on the island, I can see my office in this picture. But these are mostly edited to make it look more beautiful, the island is a good place and is actually beautiful but in general Lagos is just like every other state in Nigeria.
95 percent of us in lagos can afford to stay in places in these pictures even tho we work these, they are mainly foreign worker and politician, and some Nigerian billionaire leaving there. The rest of us just come work n leave.
You are very stupid.

What was “edited to make it look beautiful”?

Edited how?

Stupid dunce.

You people just irritate me on this forum with your wretched inferiority complex.

I I have been to most of these cities and this is simply untrue. None of them is an equal for Lagos, the only one that mildly competes is Nairobi and thats mostly on account of its truly international airport and truly international character as a travel and tourist hub.

You dared to mention Windhoek. Quaint, but mostly empty place.
Thank you for the educating that guy.

These people think they can just come in here and type any nonsense and not get fact-checked.

P&G is leaving, GSK is leaving that is the sort of news they are happy about. Moody's Analytics says economic outlook is better suddenly they are foaming in the mouth. What sort of sad people are these?
They are terrible, ungodly people.

What you guys should realise is that these folks are IPOB followers who became ‘emergency Nigerians’ after Peter Obi emerged as candidate for president.

They are today still playing the fake role of ‘Nigerians’, courtesy of Obi’s continued presence in our national space.

But at core, they are anti-Nigerian secessionists.

That’s why bad news about Nigeria pleases them, and good news bites them like a scorpion.

Some real reforms are going on in Nigeria we don't have to be negative all the time.
Exactly.

If the report was “Nigeria’s outlook ranked negative”, they would have no issues at all with it, and would have shoved it in our faces, with glee.

They are traitorous outcasts pretending to be Nigerians.

By the way, MILLIONS of Chinese and Indians live in America and Europe, and their countries are the fastest rising economies on Earth, so Japa is not a solely Nigerian or African phenomenon.

The same people find themselves in Dubai of all places and take to armed robbery and cultism, 5 Nigerian guys tried to rob a Dubai bank and now we have been banned in Dubai. In Ghana they are there kidnapping people and Ghanaians now hate us, in South Africa they are there kidnapping and selling drugs and doing cult activity, all the jails in Asia is brimming full with Nigerians

At some point in time you have to get past the denial and accept that the people are demonic.
Nigeria has 230 million people. If just 200,000 of those commit crimes abroad, it would appear to the ignorant such as yourself, that all Nigerians are criminals.

But in the Dubai and South Africa you mentioned, there are literally THOUSANDS of highly trained Nigerian professionals working in every conceivable field of endeavour. As are THOUSANDS MORE in the US, UK, Canada, Australia, and beyond.

So YOU can never make us feel inferior or ''demonic'', no matter how hard you try.

its a great place but its the people in it thats the problem. if you deport all the people and fill it up with 10 million oyinbos it would look like heaven. mohammed will be shitting and washing his gbola with kettle beside every road, nnamdi will be trying to sell you fufu iphone in alaba or computer village, kazeem the omonile will extort you like crazy grin grin
Get rid of you stupid slave mentality. It will not look like heaven if 10 million oyinbos come here, unless the oyinbos come with the same amount of money and wealth they have in their countries.

The UK has an annual budget of 2 trillion dollars.

If their population were transferred to Nigeria, whose annual budget is 35 billion dollars, Nigeria will not ''look like heaven'' simply because ''oyinbo'' came.

In your list, only Nairobi, Abidjan, and Dar es Salaam can match or surpass the Lagos skyline.

Moody's Upgrades Outlook on Nigeria to POSITIVE

Ratings agency Moody's on Friday revised its outlook on Nigeria to positive from stable, citing possible reversal of the deterioration in the country's fiscal and external position due to authorities' reform efforts.

The agency also affirmed its "Caa1" long-term foreign currency and local currency issuer ratings.

Nigerian President Bola Tinubu is seeking to boost growth and attract billions in new investment after taking charge of Africa's biggest economy, which is grappling with shortages of foreign exchange, low oil output and widespread insecurity.

Tinubu has undertaken the country's boldest reforms in decades by scrapping a popular but costly fuel subsidy in May, removing exchange controls and ending a ban on some imports.

The reforms have been welcomed by investors, but unions say they led to soaring costs while inflation has been in double-digits in Nigeria since 2016, further eroding savings and incomes.

"These policy changes, and those potentially to come, have raised the prospects of a fiscal and external improvement in the country's credit profile," Moody's said in a statement.

Last month, Tinubu urged the parliament to approve $8.69 billion and 100 million euros ($107.47 million) for projects across infrastructure, agriculture, health, education, water supply, growth, security, employment generation, as well as financial management reforms.

The Central Bank of Nigeria in November started clearing $7 billion outstanding foreign currency forwards in a bid to attract new dollar inflows and stabilise the naira, which has been weakening to record lows.

In August, S&P Global Ratings had revised its outlook on Nigeria to stable from negative and affirmed its rating at 'B-/B'.

If you need information on the glorious history of African leadership spanning THOUSANDS OF YEARS across the entire world, I will spend all night providing it, because I’m a historian and researcher who knows things you cannot imagine, about the African people.

Today we have many well-run black nations from Rwanda to Botswana, and from Tanzania to Trinidad and Tobago, and 12 of the 20 fastest growing economies on Earth are black countries.

You lack basic common sense.

What he is doing is called national reorientation.

The patriotism required to build a nation must be founded on a RE-INDIGINIZATION of the African character.

Not by trying to be white people in black skin.

Africans will NOT forever speak European languages as their lingua franca.

Impossible.

Kudos to the intelligent approach of the Burkinabe govt.
