berem: yeah we are nigerian isrealites! At least its better than being thrown from the sky!

You are not making any sense! Why are you even quoting me? Just make your comments and move on...'cos cat sleep rat go bit him tail, wetin she dey find? I would rather not join issues with you and I advise you move on and leave me alone.

Is this not the promised land iboz are saying is their promised land; better than Nigeria they are lucky to enjoy presently? With their empty chest beating, you'd think iboland is on a different planet. BTW, Onitsha is one of the worst places to be or visit and I would rather avoid it anytime I am going to or leaving Imo. It is Onitsha you'd see criminals shooting in broad daylight, harassing passers-by, and I speak from what I have seen myself. If you are going to anywhere in the East, you'd better cross from Delta to Anambra latest in the hot afternoon. It an absolute nightmare to even have your vehicle traveling on that Upper Iweka brigde in the evening let alone you on your feet, walking or whatever! I am only stating the facts and iboz who have not even been in Onitsha all their lives should keep away or go and walk there at 9 pm at night before you come back to comment!

Rossikk: Transparency International's latest corruption index has nations like Russia, Venezuela and Ivory Coast ranked WORSE than Nigeria in corruption, yet we don't see any vilification of those people.

We are vilified because we are black, wealthy, influential and potentially very powerful.

Yes there is corruption in Nigeria. But there is 100 times worse corruption in the USA as we speak. It's just not presented as such. YOU are a victim of media manipulation of global facts. That the world thinks all Nigerians are corrupt is not surprising. Many in the same world don't know we have up to three standing houses in Africa, and believe we sleep with elephants, and that we all have AIDS and live in mud huts.

So one more added misconception is no great shock.

FACT is 99% of Nigerians have had NO contact with ANY foreigners in any business transaction, and therefore any 'reputation' among foreigners regarding the country's people is artificially constructed, and must be rejected by all right-thinking people.

(Rossikk returns to check his emails, and as usual, its flooded with letters from American fraudsters promising me millions for doing nothing).

Do you live in the US? Have you lived in the US? Have you tried registering a company, getting a driver's licence, collecting your degree, got stopped by a cop, etc in the US and had to pay a bribe to be let off the hook? Can you do any of these things without having to bribe some government or company official to get what you require on time? You speak about what you have no clue about...when Halliburton, Siemens, etc or foreign companies in the US are caught up in corrupt acts, what did the US government do? What has Nigerian governments done? Rep. Jackson was busted where did he go and where did Atiku his partner go? Stop this nonsense of defending the corruption of Nigerian leaders and most of their followers.

MacLovington: .

Is there any country that is not corrupt especially in Africa? Sure enough we haven't shown good leadership in Africa. We should have done better. But corruption is common all over Africa.
The difference is that every Nigerian is a critic. Every Nigerian has an opinion about government failure and openly express it. Other Africans think saying so about their country means lack of patriotism.

Is there any emperical evidence that murder/theft/violation/bribery per 100,000 population in Nigeria is more than that of Malawi for example? NO.

Other Africans have to be naturally weary of domination by Nigeria. It is basic instinct to feel threatened by an imposing figure. Other smaller countries often attack Nigeria as self-defence.
The boisterous, confident nature of Nigerians is secretely admired by most but openly portrayed as arrogance. Girls particularly like it.

Keep deceiving yourself. Did you ever read enough to discover a body called Transparency International? Go and read their rankings. Then, read the UN HDI publications and match the two documents to deduce objectively where Nigeria stands - not even empirical evidence here but from data gathered about the countries. Finally think for a second, per 100,000; would a sample 160 M+ population or a 2 M population carry the day? Again read your history, Nigeria has been on the decline since the 70's and if any improvement ever occurred, it was between 1999-2007; meanwhile most other countries on Nigeria's level in the 70s have gone past: Malaysia, Singapore, Korea, etc. Or that doesn't mean anything to you still?

jomonic: The same your beloved OBJ gave Nigeria jona.

Stop being silly and ridiculous! Did you not see where I mentioned that OBJ performed below his potential? That aside, is OBJ responsible for the stupidity of GEJ? If your boss has some level of confidence in you and puts you in a higher position in which you perform horribly, is he to blame? OBJ had an agenda which he thought he could accomplish by supporting Yaradua and GEJ who both failed but even slow Yaradua is MUCH better than the current dumdum president. It is not OBJ's fault that GEJ is a retardeen.

PEREP: Sir, did you read that he mentioned all of these during an interview with reuters as captured below? Maybe this comment was meant for another post.

In an interview with Reuters on the sidelines of the U.N. General Assembly’s annual gathering of world leaders, President Goodluck Jonathan also played down the significance of the killing of the sect’s spokesman, Abu Qaqa, in a gun battle in Kano on September 16.

Did you not see the origin of the comment, which you have unthinkingly ascribed to me? Go back and look at the whole post to see the comments were made by other people from the source credited with the NL post.

kingingkinging: I was watching Dokubo recently on the TV shouting at a reporting and OBJ crossed my mind, who was Dokubo when Obasanjo was in power, he was remanded for being a threat to the peace and tranquility of Nigeria but today he is everywhere shouting.

No intelligent person can respect uncle Jonathan I would rather listen to Fashola or Fayemi (who Obama said should have been the president of Nigeria) laughing stock.

For goodness sake, I couldn't agree more with you but see how people are in denial, so disgusting! Anytime some reporter is interviewing Fashola whether sitting or while on the move, some things are VERY clear: His strong grasp of the issues, places, dates, names, etc are just reels out without having to stammer or correct himself repeatedly; a logical explanation of whatever the plan under execution is, where the project is currently and the projection into the future; his oration and carriage of himself projects confidence and authority and his power of expression is very impactful. Can anyone say the same of Jonathan? Did you not see in this same interview where Jona is trying to say the menace of BH is on the decline and he says "...it is going down now...". How can a Ph. D president be so piss poor that he cannot construct precise statements that a worldwide audience (supposedly) of his interview would be listening to?

Rossikk: Why won't they hate us? They turn on their TV and there is Nollywood. They switch on their radio and there's 2baba, Bracket, Whizkid and P-Square causing havoc. Everywhere they see Africans ballin', it's Nigerians.

It's like everywhere they turn, we dominate. Such a thing can induce real jealousy and animosity among people.

I suggest we ignore them, since they're hardly relevant in the wider scheme of things.

You may be right in some of your comments BUT they have VERY legitimate reasons and not the BS you have focused up there ^^. The point is this a good name is better than silver and gold but you are implying the reverse. All the riches of natural and human resources and our diversity is completely irrelevant with a perpetually inept and CORRUPT leadership. Nigerian leadership and leading Nigerian companies rank off the scale in corruption, NO COUNTRY will ignore that 'cos it trumps all the other points you made. I have traveled to a lot of countries, lived in more places than you, carry a passport of a country that does not require a visa in almost any other country and I can tell you the experience of a Nigerian passport holder is different. Get real, if everyone thinks something is wrong with Nigeria, your own single (or partisan minority) opinion is of no consequence. I, as a Nigerian, state honestly that Nigeria is corrupt, inept, and bandies the most useless set of leaders that ever existed anywhere on this planet - except a very, very few of them!

Rossikk: Land Of Israel Rejects Africans

[img]http://www.jpost.com/HttpHandlers/ShowImage.ashx?ID=194643[/img]

Police arrest 17 in Tel Aviv after 1,000-strong rally in which MK Danon says "infiltrators are a national plague, must be deported."

Speaking at the rally in south Tel Aviv late Wednesday, MK Danny Danon (Likud), chairman of the “Deportation Now” movement, called for the immediate expulsion of African migrants from Israel.

Danon said: “The infiltrators are a national plague and we must deport them immediately before it’s too late – the Sudanese can go back to Sudan and the rest should be deported to other countries in Africa...''

What about the so-called Nigerian Israelites? Why can't they stay since they are also jews as per their recent story?? Shouldn't they all be transported to Israel to be united with their claimed origin? Answers anyone??

ak47mann: As i said before,NIGERIA is not gaint of africa the country as a whole is a shame to black race

Sharrap dia before you chop big slap! Was it not iboz that voted and rigged in this dim bulb by ~98%? You share as much blame for your lame posting. You louts only voted your ibo president because he called himself Ebelechukwu Azikiwe. The thread is here on NL and have you gotten 36 airports in all states of Nigeria? Floating cities in the Delta? Roads to nowhere and all sundry empty promises?

Foo.lish president...and you still rigged election? Who is deceiving you? The know you are a crappy liar and that is why they all refused to attend you so called UN speech! lol

Idahosa
What a shame, Nigerian president addressing the hall. Even our African brothers and sisters no even wait to listen to our tales by moon light! Its not funny. Jona, i beg pack your things and come home! At least history go write say you address U.N general assembly.

We told Jonathan to beware of Babangida, Atiku, etc but he refused and joined the terror train to gain temporary relief instead of squaring against the traitors . The world are not dumb, and i wish Jonathan can somehow grasp the reality, after all.

Is GEJ talking to world leaders or their seats? Because from the picture above, its clear the auditorium was completely empty. You can as well see that the few that were sitting care less about his blab. Why didn't this man save himself the embarrassment by not addressing the hall at all since those he supposed to tell about his ineptitude all went out for coffee instead because they do not want the story of a failed leader? leadership no be by gra-gra Jonah boy

Black man blabbing away in far away New York... but where is his audience? We are here back home in Nigeria, hoping that you will eagerly talk to us and listen to what we yearn to tell you... The solution you seek... is here... is in you... is in your country and people.

Some comments from original article...funny!


PAPII

Jona keeps on amazing me and embarrassing himself and the whole Nigerian Nation and its political class,addressing an empty Assembly who left because its just like listening to a rogue . Tell me what concerns United Nations Assembly with Subsidy/ Oil revenues into a sovereign wealth fund and Issue of going to court with Governors for crying out loud these are international matters that does not concern United Nations . How can they listen to the Leader of a Rouge country that embezzle Multi Millions of Dollars and nobody goes to jail talking about Agriculture, education, job creation this is setting the United Nations back on the pressing Issues of the world. He should have addressed Bakassi and also return of our stolen debts for development in Foreign Banks as a way to boost Naija economy than tell the world that he intends to remove subsidy and increase the suffering of the masses in the name of Subsidy while Naija is an Oil giant in the world. I think the Educational Qualification of Jona should be verified along with his team of advisers who have sworn to remain clueless

LWKMD! Choi...even those fellas at the UN know that this guy is a joke, most reasonable Nigerians would rather read his crap from reporters next day than waste their time listening to his BS. Choi...Obasanjo try for this area 'cos everyone (or most people) would listen to that man. Yes, he did not achieve as much as he should but when he has to address people, people will tune in. He knew how to project his authority, brought respect to the position of president and a much more efficient communicator than the dumb.ass Ph. D Daftluck..lol

dayokanu: Never in doubt my home is Ogbomosho in Oyo State.

I am just a resident of Lagos NOT an indigene. Unlike some people who wan die for another man land claiming its No mans Land

And you could damn well decide to be an indigene and no Yoruba would care and welcome you as much as they welcome themselves. Just like a Lagos man or woman could move to Ogbomosho (e.g. through marriage) and Ogbomoshos would hardly bother - they see every SW as one really. The SWesterners have no vile ambitions like iboz to claim another person's land. The SW lands are large enough for everyone and when Lagos becomes truly saturated, it is a small matter to start developing and joining parts of Oyo and Ogun to Lagos in high flying development.

NRI PRIEST: We stood our ground and fought nigeria and the western world put together for a brutal 30months without food....mudafucka I am proud that my ppl didn't chicken out. We stood our ground and fought nigeria and their western allies for a bloody 30months! Benin conquered lagos,named it Eko and colonized you.Fulani defeated the ilorin empire and islamized you. Fulani massacrered you in oyo,colonized and islamized you. Yoruba women are the ones feeding their husband like african american women. You lots are weaklings and cannot keep ur diick in your pants. We Igbo are too brave for you!

iboz did not fight for 30 months because the Nigerian government paused for several times, months at a stretch sometimes to give dialogue a chance despite ojukus empty belligerence. Be honest to say that the war was not fought as a war but rather a brother's conflict in which the goal is not to destroy your own people but bring him back from his error. If it were to be a total war, fought with complete brutality, no retreat, no surrender; iboz will be extinct today. Did you read about the war in he Congo? Educate yourself. For example, the Nigerian army accepted Biafra surrender and gave them a chance to. If that war was fought with complete total brutality and annihilation, it would not even last 6 months. Go and check history and think very well and you will realize a colony of ants has no hope against a man with unlimited supply of gamalin-20 mixed with petrol and lighter.

Germannig: Why did Lagos not take the small pain to investigate her claim? That surely is cheaper than paying for a ride for someone who did not deserve it. Besides, what's more important, protecting good citizens, no matter how lowly their occupation might be, or deporting good citizens in the guise of deporting bad ones?

Let the state enforce its laws. If someone is wronged, let them go to court. Lagos and its government is there to protect and serve its people and some iboz may live there but it doesn't mean the people (represented by their government) cannot or will not enforce their laws as required. If you like hang yourself, or repatriate them to Germany (who dash monkey banana), but when and if they time comes, law breakers would be dealt with. Ultimately, when and if Nigeria breaks up or reverts to regionalism; all foreigners would have to GO! The iboz who insult others the most would be the first to be deported with their houses off the land. Moving companies that can move houses will get a lot of business and you can move them to iboland. ibo girls love Lagos and would rather stay there free of their men who kill them like Cynthia (as if the sex the men get is not enough), so a buffer zone just after the Niger bridge might be created for them so they are not too far away if they choose. iboz will probably start changing their names to blend in but it is at this level that every man will lead teams of inspectors to go interrogate their grandfathers in their hamlets to see if they really belong. Speaking the language will not be enough because the old men will agree as committees whether your fathers were from that hamlet or not. When iboz get their biafra; they will not last one month in any part of Nigeria as they will be forcefully confined to their land locked utopia.

aryzgreat: keep consoling ur lazy self, even if nigeria divides today, under international law our properties still remains our property failure to heed the law, u knw d consequence, cant wait to carry arms against u cowards when the time comes. keep giving hopes

Lolz....ojuku did the same and after 3 M iboz died he legged it to Abidjan killing two little kids in his bid to escape. The first war was quite brutal and Nigerians had only endured your insults for about 7 years; now with 52 years of insult; the brutality would be > 7X. Keep running your mouth as your cup will becom full sooner than later.

ichidodo: WHO DASH MONKEY BANANA. I SAY WHEN THEY WHERE DEPORTIN URE FADA DID U C ANY IGBO OR HAUSA MAN CELEBRATIN?!

Your father is a monkey? You make no sense, try again! Lolz

PointB: I just hope Anambra retaliates.

Who will leave the land of freedom, progress, wealth and opportunities to be kidnapped in a landlocked iboland? What kind of retaliation? I think they should actually out of bad belleism but the SW are too sophisticated to do things like this to spite anyone. There has to be some reason which would be known soon. However, if they were to be vengeful savages like iboz, they could also retaliate by deporting every akpu-head back to iboland where they would be kidnapped or used for ritual money. That situation would be worse than 1970 since the ibo refugees cannot farm, cannot get land, will need to pay every coastal state heavy duties and taxes to transport their fake goods into iboland and neither the folks from PH or the folks across the Niger bridge would allow you to steal what was bequeathed to them by their fathers. iboz go to rob in Lagos and other parts on Nigeria and then insult their generous hosts, why should people put up with your stinking attitudes??

ichidodo: SHUT YAR FARCKIN HOLE,YOU IGBO-HATIN FIEND. DID U C ANYBODY JUBILATIN WHEN THEY WHERE DEPORTIN URE FADA. EEDIOT! NINCOPOOP!

LOL @ ibo loser! iboz have no respect fo their fathers and mothers, hence your statement is nit surprising. You are too stupid and you could not look my dad in the eyes or even me before 10 guards put 1000 bullets in your big empty ibo skull! With multiple houses in Nigeria, we rent some of our houses and collect big monies, who will deport who? I know you are just mad because your do nothing iboz were deported! Yikes and lol.

aryzgreat: I WAS EVEN THINKING FASHOLA WAS A LEARNED PERSON NOT KNOWING HE IS AN ANIMAL! HE HAS LOST ALL RESPECT I HAVE FOR HIM. TO EVEN THINK THIS KIND OF ANIMAL WAN'T TO CONTEST FOR PRESIDENCY IS A JOKE OF THE CENTURY.

IF THE "DEPORTEES" COMMITTED OR BREACH THE STATE LAW, UNDER WHAT ARRANGEMENT DID HE COME TO THE CONCLUSION THAT THEY ARE ALL ANAMBRARIANS? AND WHY WOULD HUMAN BEINGS BE DUMPED UNDER SUCH CONDITIONS IN ONITSHA AT SUCH AN UNHOLY HOUR? WHY DIDN'T ONITSHA TRADERS SEIZE THE DRIVERS AND CONFISCATE THE 9 BUSES? THAT WOULD HAVE DRAWN THE BATTLE LINE BTWN LAGOS AND ANAMBRA AND THIS MATTER ADDRESSED APPROPRIATELY. FASHOLA IS A FOOL! A BIGOT! AND A COWARD!

You can yell until you break down with heart attack, the government protected its people and enforced it's laws. Why should a host put up with any unruly and uncultured ibo guest? ibos cry they own Nigeria and are 99% of every place...lol self delusion. Is it by force to live in Lagos or SW and not iboland? When Hausas were returned, ibos were jubilating, Yorubas you were jubilant, but now you cry like babies! Lol lol lol

There must be more to this issue. Someone mentioned they could be part of the recently freed criminals (255) or so. That said, the Lagos government has repatriated both Yorubas and Hausas previously do doing same to ibos cannot be tribally motivated. Of all of them, ibos are known to insult their hosts in any part of Nigeria anyways so why should such host keep feeding and providing you something your land cannot and all you payback is ingratitude and abuse? To people boasting about their votes, who cares? If you think aspirants at any level should not carry out their legal duties otherwise you won't vote for them, better keep your votes. Also ship out to your motherland and all that will be said is good riddance to bad rubbish.

Germannig: Who was liberating who? I though you are a history student of the Biafra war? Those people you say are being liberated were part and parcel of Biafra that your Awo and Gowon ''liberated''. Now see where your liberation landed them: in a perennially underdeveloped, Boko Haram-infested union.

Una no dey tire for all these hate? Just vote someone else in 2015 and leave others to make their own decisions. I don't see how it concerns you though since ibos have seceded from Nigeria into their own country. While waiting for final approval from the rest of Nigeria, you can not expect to discuss or want to even be president.

I hope no one will talk about Ibo president again after this phantom biafara charade. This is one reason why men would do anything to keep a cowardly, indecisive saboteur from being in charge of leadership.

cjrane: Ok, only SE has the worst youth unemployment, crime and kidnapping in Nigeria?
In spite of all their problems according to this writer,they are not blowing up mosques and killing people just because they are Hausa living in Igboland!!!
You need to learn a lot from them then.Many regions of Nigeria have less problems according to this writer,yet they are the places with the most violence and people blowing up religious places just for fun.Speaks volumes about their beastly nature.

This is about Ibo land, why bring other people into it? I know it is the usual ibo inferiority complex....nothing new there.

FSU: At least he is not Yoruba, the biggest looters of Nigeria

Why must you insult people all the time? When will you grow a brain with your tribalistic crap you can't do without? Who will vote for Ibo president when you go insulting everybody? Hausa, you insult them. Yorubas, you call the names even out of jealousy. And MB who you are now insulting in Kogi/Anambra will vote for Ibo man? Or SS who used Jonathan as Ibo man the first time and will resort to other tactics now will vote Ibo man?? Na wah for una oo

Laff wan wunjure person here o!

Was she not resting? Nigeria is too small to rest her BIG size so she flew to a BIGGER country. Well, we siddon dey look o. Why would she even want a tummy tuck after having 1 B for food alone for a year? No tummy tuck will remove that kind of big stomach plus contribution from cassava bread! In any case, we siddon dey look....if Patience will Yar'adua herself soon!

I lived in Imo for a while and it was not too bad, in my opinion then. Are you saying things are WORSE now? Can you clarify with some pictures if you live there and a camera phone could do just that. Post the pictures here and let us see.

No need to argue with people, a picture is worth more than 1,000 words but show both sides: the part he had done and the ones he hasn't done not that he not done anything at all??! Most of the people you will be arguing with will never agree with you though they don't even live in Imo but have this utopian mirage the place is better than everywhere else in the world. Just post the pictures here and we will form our opinion. These things are what is important to consider when people start mouthing the name of someone who hasn't even passed 4 years of secondary school to become CEO of a 160 M+ people, and manage a company with values around $300 B. Let us see Rochas works first by picture evidence.
