If you're not a US citizen or resident, you have no business commenting on our politics. Concentrate on your Buhari Vs Pdp politics. Also, that proverb at the beginning of the piece is downright disgusting. Filthy baboons.

Africa is synonymous with backwardness, cowardice, and a giant lack of intelligence. I curse the day I was born a black man.

Excuses!Excuses! Excuses! When will black people realize that they've got this whole civilization thing all wrong?! Why doesn't anything work in Africa? Lower average population IQ.

Barbaric! Africa is humanity's greatest mistake. It should have been leveled years ago with nukes.

I am Jesus.

Is anyone willing to discuss the actual article? Or are you chimps going to concentrate on jerking off to a name?

AntiWailer:
Americans are ass holes.

Why still legalise possession of fire arms when no one ever use theirs to defend terrorism.

It was a gun free zone. Thank the liberals for that.

modath:
The elephant in the room no one is talking about is the ease of acquiring fire arms and ammunition in the US... It's obscene!!!! Gun control people !!!

The dead mass murdering Mofo bought the guns a week or so before this incident..

The NRA & the other right wing gun nuts will play deaf as usual & wait for it blow away...

Shut your mouth; you don't know what you're talking about. Gun control will only affect law abiding citizens! Criminals will always get weapons regardless of any form of control. This is why I'm voting Trump come November. I won't let anyone take away my 2nd amendment rights.

Many Nigerians in North America are hypocritical arrogant people whom consider their culture superior to the western world...It's not because if it were, That sub Saharan territory wouldn't be a third world country...I couldn't give a farts fvck about some man wearing gay looking clothes but I am sure my dad would buy a first class ticket to go frolick his ass...SAD

Lipstick alley is that way ------>

While I find it ridiculous and laughable that some arrogant Africans consider their culture to be superior, I also realize that the Blacks here in the US commit 50% of the crime, while making up 12% of the population.

I am Ikwerre and this is the daftest article I have read all year long. Obio/Akpo LGA is richer and bigger than Ebonyi state. Ikwerres have similarities in names and language but our culture is different from that of the Igbos even our traditions and identity. We have different history, we mixed up with the igbos due to trade. Our real identity is "iwuruoha". It's the white man that caused most of this things.
They made aba the capital of our region make most headquarters of business and corporation reside there and made an igbo man mayor of Portharcourt. That's why almost all the streets in Diobu are igbo names. I have personally discussed with Sir Elechi Amadi and he told me a lot including why we supported Nigeria. I'm from Ogbakiri and we have no trace of origin from igbos. We can bear the same names or even speak the same language but we have our different traditions and identity.
Please don't kill yourself over this, Ikwerres will never want to associate themselves with igbos, we have this superior feeling that we better than the igbos, hence the laziness in our people. Bye

Well said my ikwerre brother. My mother was born in Ogbakiri(kind of off topic).

Misleading.

..Humanity is so vulnerable that we leave that which is in front of us to chase after that which we do not have or know but a figment of our imaginations, thoughts and wishes.

the above quote of mine holds true for our perception of death.

Haven't you noticed how the word "Death" gives rise to different philosophies of hopeful realities to many.

-On one hand some speculate we do not really die but transcends and then gets reborn and live again and so it goes in a circle.

-Another suggests we do not get reborn but some thinking formless needless part of us continues somewhere else.

-Plato suggests the body is a prison for the soul.

Where as all these philosophies are profound and hopeful, i also call it greed, selfishness and a product of an unmatched ego wielded only by the human mind.

Humans have that egoistic tendency of deluding themselves to be the most important part of the universe..

That is why in this deluding ego they see themselves as deserving to live again but not every other animal or living thing in this earth that also live as they live and feel as they do.


-Just how important are we in this universe?

More important than the stars? Without the stars we won't be here but without us they were, are and will be.

More important than the plants ? without them we won't be here but without us they were, are and will be.

So how exactly are we more important, why do we prize ourselves the most important part of the cosmos when we are so deplorable and expendable that the cosmos won't even notice our disappearance.

So many stories have littered the course of human philosophy on the eventuality of death.

So many wishful hopeful fantasies has been conceived to give hope and comfort to the human mind when faced with the inevitability of death.

-We shall see again in paradise
-we shall be reborn again
-we shall make merry in Valhalla

amongst thousands of such tales.. I do not know how enticing these stories are but i know the greed of a human mind makes them comforting as nobody would like to imagine the absoluteness of the end of our being.

That to me comes from a short memory cus just a little journey backwards whene we were not here, imagining inexistence won't be far fetched.

We have been dead for an infinite time backwards, now we are here and we will soon be dead how then can we not imagine our the state we were before coming to this?.

I really understand the reasons why all these stories crop up in the human mind, why all these philosophies and emotional clutch to a comforting tale defines a huge part of our belief

It is because of the vulnerability of our being.

Being that almost certainly we are probably the only species amongst all in this planet that know at a very young age that we would die one day.

This knowledge of our inevitable end is somewhat like a burden to us .

I doubt that other species Chimpanzee, dogs , elephants even though alive as we are are fretting over an afterlife or performing rituals to earn a place in paradise or somewhere else outside the cosmos.

No they just live in the moment.

With all these stories filling the gap left by fear, vulnerability of our mind, we yet have no evidence to support these fantasies.

I do not claim to have knowledge of what happens in death but if anybody, person or book claims to know, they are both lying and fraudulent.

Because they do not know.

We are so concerned by what we want to be, by what we wish for that we forget and pay little mind to what we have which is NOW

So isn't it better and more noble we forget all these stories and focus on what we have and where we are which is Now and Here

Here and Now are the most important, certain aspect of it all, make them count and don't waste them chasing after a vague shadow of an uncertain wishful fantasy.

Wow. Great post.

History repeats itself.

Like Satanaya said: "Those who fail to learn from history are bound to repeat it. "

Poor girl. Her only crime was being born in craphole Africa (Nigeria).

Nigeria has so many engineers, yet it can't solve its power and developmental problems. If this doesn't make the cognitive defects of the black race apparent, nothing will.

Lol. This dude is the snowball (Animal farm) of this government. He just says things to satiate the people. He knows what he's saying is absolute bull, but he'll say it anyway .

blueAgent:
Lol...... i nearly enter gutter. this country too like nollywood. ordinary national ID card was not Successful how much DNA.

Lol

Punching way above their intellectual weight.

The last General left power 1999

So Thieving America wants us to believe that no stolen money has entered America since 1999 ?

America you are a thieves, give us all our money !! - should be tens of billions not only millions they are offering to return.

Shut your mouth. Stolen loot was not emblazoned on the looted funds, you Ret ard.

Stop giving these people aid Britain!

Dudeweedlmao:
Most atheist (especially on nairaland) are some of the most pretentious and repressed homosexuals i've ever known
The only reason why they believe GOD doesn't exist is because of what the read on the internet.

In a typical athiest mind : "if it is written on the internet or by a white man, then it must be true. "

That's funny, seeing that you base your life on a book introduced to you by the same "white men".

Cameron is daft..he lacks wit and diplomacy.I don't blame him,it's the 170million people who won't set aside their sleazy differences and know that collectively they can be greater than UK and France combined.

Delusions of grandeur.

This is my problem with most blacks. Too emotional; never logical. The slavery /colonization excuse is so hackneyed that it's almost cliche. China was subdued by the west from the late 1800s to the 1900s, but they didn't moan, whine and blame all their problems on that. Same thing for the Chinese in the U.S. that built the railroads; the Chinese exclusion act was just as deleterious as jim crow's, yet blacks are the only race here that can't move forward; they can only blame all their problems on other races. Majority of the 54 african countries are third world, with SA being the exception. It's well known that SA was developed by the whites; black south Africans contributed absolutely nothing to SA during its glory days. It's also well known that Rushton chose South Africa as his sample for testing the African IQ. The mean IQ was a 75 lol; a few points below the IQ of a chimpanzee. There's something wrong with the black race. You can stick your head in the sand, but the truth is definitely coming to bite you one of these days.

Some people are just brain dead. Use your brain for once, you stu pid fu ck.

If you don't want the west to berate you, then don't take its aid. It's that simple.

MetaHuman:
if I call a black man a nigger, that doesn't give a white redneck the right to also call him a nigger, that's racist.

Why not? It's all about context.

Lol@ the imbeciles talking about how being goaded like cattle made them disciplined. Nigeria is one of the most lawless places on the planet. I wondered what benefit you gained from all that whipping.

Tay16:
i can bet you a million dollars that post was made by a frustrated black guy tired of being left for white guys because black women are still winning

Are white people a prize or something?

Goddamn! The black race is so fukked up.

That sucks dude.

That's Africa(Nigeria) for you; virtually nothing good comes out of it.

This is absolutely insanity. This whole scenario sounds like something out of the onion. What gives them the right to trespass on the property of others?! These entitled idiots go out if their way to destroy crops they had no part in planting. Fulanis have practiced this nomadic bullshit for centuries. For centuries they haven't been able to find a solution to their grazing woes?! These unintelligent dirtbags can't even come up with irrigation that was practiced over 1000 years ago in ancient Mesopotamia! I think it's time to do some cleansing;these guys are too unintelligent to live.

Thanks For The Education. Don't You Find It Funny To Know That Suicidal Attempt Attracts A' Dead Penalty' In Most Asians Countries? And The Penalty For That In Most Western Countries Is The Same As Taking Another Man's Life.
Bro, Don't Get It Twisted, You Don't Own Your Life When It Comes Suicide

That doesn't make any sense. A death penalty for trying to kill yourself sounds ret arded, and Asians aren't ret arded. A man always owns his life. Always.
