I'm sorry you feel this way.

I think, more than any other continent, there is a shared history among Africans, a history that recollects suffering and conquest in very recent memory. Continuously reiterating it is not 'nonsense' (again, I'm sorry and very sad you term it this way) but my identity is closely bound to that kinfolk than the 'oppressor culture'.

And being proudly African, as well as Nigerian, or Ibibio/Yoruba/Kanuri etc are not mutually exclusive. Each step, you are drilling down to the essence of your identity, and it all starts from humanity in common.

So, if aliens invade tomorrow, for sure I will pick up weapons and fight for humanity.

I don't think you get what I was trying to paint here

DeLaRue:
The constant shouting of 'Africa' 'One Africa' has very little meaning to me. It's largely meaningless, quite embarrassing, cringeworthy and borderline irritating.

Building friendships, peace and extending a hand of partnership across nations and continents is worthy. But we must build our individual nations. I honestly don't feel any more connected to someone in Ghana, Mali or Sudan that I feel for Inuits in the far corners of icy Canada. My goodwill extends to all good people of the world.

Shouting one Africa all over the place means what exactly. Even within Nigeria, we barely tolerate one another. I notice it's musicians mostly shouting and screaming this one africa stuff.

Now they are holding a so-called one Africa event in every continent, but the so-called Africa. Just makes the black man look a fool.

Bruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Its as if you just peered into my soul and wrote everything i wanted to say!!

Small thing u go dey hear Wizkid say " African Girl".. WTF does that even mean? Do we even know what it means to be an Hausa man, an Ijaw person let alone a Mauritanian?
Burna Boy's "African Giant" was so fucking cringey to me (not the content tho, great music)... like can't you just be a "Nigerian Giant" foggossake?
why must we always shout Africa? you hardly find these White people shouting "European Music" or "Amerivcan Giant" or any of that nonsense.

Its just another example of the subtle inferiority complex down here...

That Last Point.
very very important

This is what i don't like. People just wasting spaces for others who genuinely want to migrate. Why bother going through the rigors of application process when you don't even know what you want.
The mistake a lot of Nigerians make is just migrating to another country without actually defining for themselves what they really want. Abroad is not for everyone.
From your post, i will advice you to stay back in Nigeria.
The only people i encourage to migrate are people who don't really place money over every other thing. People who don't feel happy about the rot in Nigeria and want to live somewhere where things are working. The truth is that the chances of making that 7 digits in Canada is low and for people who place too much value on money, it is either they go into crime to meet up or they come to nairaland, open a thread and be bad mouthing Cananda, US or other western countries they migrate to as if they country begged them to migrate.

Not everyone appreciate the clean environment, working systems etc that obtains in the western world. In fact, some people enjoy the chaos in Nigeria and will never function properly in the western society. I know some Nigerians over here who keep whining every time that they pay taxes.

@OP, my advice is stay in Nigeria to avoid regrets. It is obvious you did not even do your research very well and you don't seem to know what you really want.

I think this is the best advice here

I went to the https://myactivity.google.com/, I’m over surprised at what I’m seeing, telling me every thing that was used on my phone, the dialler, my movement around town(whether I was driving or walking), games I’ve played on my android phone, apps I opened on the android, what I searched using my laptop, how many times I opened Samsung music app, how many times I went to the home screen on my phone (wtf)

The tiniest bit of information et all, the list is endless, we are just moving computers in the hands of internet

u don see for ursef. leave people to their illusion

Abeg enough with all the smartness jor..
That was the same "smart" people claiming woke during the 10 year challenge.
Online privacy is a myth.
Facebook, Twitter, Instagram are bigger culprits. Go to https://myactivity.google.com/ and see something. And that is only for your Google Account o.
Leave the people to catch their fun, nothing is private anymore!!

I've been Team Messi right from time but I am angry seeing this tirade from Leo, when he had benefitted from some very questionable refereing decisions with Barcelona in the past.

= The ridiculous penalty given from a corner kick vs Milan..
= RVP sending off when Arsenal just equalized and were gaining momentum
= Stamford Bridge the height of it all.

I took him as my goat cos i see him as all CR7 is not, humble and makes no noise, but now he has joined that club.
I don't like CR7 either, so I will have to choose a new GOAT now.

Step up, Yaya Sanogo. Your time has come.

EFCC Shuttle.. haq haq haq..

Nigeria keeps unlocking new levels of embarrassment every day

Dazall i need to hear.. I get to watch the Europa League final at home without the fear of getting home late due to traffic. I care less about the rest of what he is saying. I no fit shout

This railway project will at best be completed by November or January next year, and this is not to belittle the amount of work being done on the line..
the line is yet to leave Iju station, and pass through Agege, Ikeja, Oshodi through to Iddo. All we have been seeing is lots of demolishings..
I appreciate the commitment towards the project, but this June Amaechi is saying is laughable

I really want to understand the last part of your statement.

It comes up again as in power on fully right?
If that's the case look for someone with the same laptop and confirm with his own charger.

If your charger is 65W, try with a 90W.

Yeah that's it I've not been able to establish a pattern, sometimes it will be full and not come on, I will have to plug it in, even then it won't boot. sometimes I will remove d battery I'll still get d same symptoms.
sometimes after several hours e go boot up.
I just taya

Hello, please what does it mean if my Dell Latitude E4310 refuses to boot , it just blinks the power and battery icons intermiently for some minutes then going off again.

I STRUGGLE TO SEE WHAT THIS POST IS SUPPOSED TO BE ALL ABOUT

In 1886, the first electric underground railway system was opened in London, England

We are here celebrating a routine railway track that will still be on narrow gauge (an outdated rail system)..
we are really behind in this country

It's 2018. Nigerians are still celebrating the construction of roads and bridges

Dmpaul:
fact kill u dia. U go jst wake up bgin talk rubbsh.

Typical Nigerian. Always looking to form savage.

Dmpaul:
you're dumb asf.
All dis cele(yeye)brities mourning and saying nice things about her did nt celebrate ha achievements wen she was alive neither did any1 show enuf interest in her health until she died.

Quote me again and lose ur sense

That's why I said you shouldn't say what you don't know..
Simply because you don't follow her doesn't mean that she wasn't celebrated, she was, actually, on numerous occasions.. a quick check on her Wikipedia page will give you an insight to this.
As per her health, she was not from a poor home and she was financially buoyant enough to manage herself, which she does on a regular basis.
Repeating falsehood and resorting to cheap abuse (as you are doing) doesn't change the facts that you are arguing without facts.
Have a wonderful day

Dmpaul:
RIP It's so sad that no one celebrated her, not until she died. Everyone is now pouring condo's and acco's. World!!

In other news, check my siggy!

Don't say what you don't know.. she was an highly respected and celebrated OAP
