Warship:
Your view is inconsequential


Just take note that the world don't tolerate lies


The population fraud of the North and West will incur the hatred of the world against them


Just ask the Chinese what they are facing in the intellectual world because of intellectual theft.

Warship:
As you rightly said, the world will know that Nigerian population is a fraud once the country disintegrates.


The hatred the world will have towards the North and West for inflating their figures will be unprecedented.


Time will finally set the Truth free

30th December 2018 will make it 10 good years I traditionally married,
(30th December 2008), so far so good, it has been a wonderful experience.
My mom never told me of anything i will be seeing in my husbands house, I figured them out myself. Experience they say is the best teacher and it has taught me well.

He may not change;if there is anything you don’t like about your husband during courtship, and you know you can’t live with that for the rest of your life but you think he will probably change after marriage, my sister that only happens in Africa magic. Don’t say when you get married and with prayers he will change. Yes with prayers, he will definitely change but how patient will you be before God answers your prayers.

You are responsible and to be blamed for everything; my husband will blame me even when my kids fall sick; like it is my fault they are sick. If your husband falls sick too, it is your fault, if a business plan he never told you about fails, it is your fault, if your child is not doing well academically and otherwise, it is your fault. Just accept everything is your fault and you will have maximum peace. Dont argue, it is your fault he didnt wake up early for an appointment.
Always have water in your mouth when your husband is angry at you; heyyyyyyy. Which man wants his wife to talk back at him or talk while he is talking? A story was told of a woman that reported her husband to the reverend father for domestic violence, and the reverend gave her a bottle of holy water and instructed her to always put the holy water in her mouth anytime her husband is angry and shouting at her. This she does anytime the man gets angry and the violence stopped, the woman see more [url][/url]http://www.thisdaymom.com/2017/04/by-gods-grace-30th-december-2018-will.html

If I submitted an essay as such without background references and citations for just an high school english language assignment like the writer did, I would be flogged.

I wanted to pass over this but sometimes you just need to nip ignorance in the bud before it travels. The article is such a bad jumbling of words by the writer(i am tempted to not call him one because he clearly isn't one) who thought adding boko haram or whatever gives legitimacy over his writings as regards Muslims and birth control. How many Muslims are governed by Boko Haram in the North for their stance to warrant a mention in a public health discuss that cuts across millions of people? Maybe we should start by asking that question. Please get your facts right. Islam enjoins people to do family planning it was even in hadith as far back as 1400 years ago about withdrawal method even though we know it is not that effective but nonetheless it is still a form of birth control.

As for his ignorant position without valid evidences to support such statements like Muslims not supporting birth control. I guess he has never taken a look at the demographics of the world and realize that overpopulation is not a factor caused by religion but more of culture and poverty. In the Nigerian case. It's so easy to explain..

1. The average Nigerian believes their kids is an investment and a sure way out of their poverty(children are "blessings" from the lord they say) and like a lottery player or bad gambler goes on giving birth in the hopes of raising the odds of one of then hitting it big and building them houses and lifting them out of poverty or whatever when they grow old.

2. The high child mortality rate is another issue. It is a known fact that Nigeria alone loses about 2300 children under 5 years old every single day. To put it in good perspectives. There are 201 deaths per 1000 live births. I.e 1 in 5 kids never reach age 5 . You would be alarmed that it is higher than that and to mitigate the effect. Most people tend to give birth to more children in order to increase the survival rates since healthcare is poor and most times they can't even afford it. So why not give birth to more. Give birth to 12 and at least 5 should get to age 40, aint it?

3. People are too poor to afford birth control. Even a N50 condom is a big investment to 9 out of 10 Nigerian males. Let alone female condoms that are much more expensive. I can bet you. Do a mini survey on nairaland amongst girls that are sexually active and ask them if they have ever even seen a female condom in their lives let alone buy. And that is just cd o. Don't even let me go the way of IUCD or the others. How many Nigerians even visit a certified health care centre? How many prinary health care centres do we even have? What is the ratio of Health care practitioners to the population because except you are well learned as regards birth control methods, I doubt you would just decide to wake up one day and start taking brith control pills.

4. Then the main causative. Poverty. Just look at areas with rapid and high birth rates. They have the same denominator. Poor and underdeveloped countries. China, india, brazil, Nigeria e.t.c . I guess if we have to go by the narrative if this du.mb writer Muslims are the only ones domiciled in China, Brazil and India.

5. Ignorance: our education level is so low that even educated people think so irrationally that you would have to classify them as illiterates. I have heard graduates.from university saying using contraceptive is a sin. Or the fact that people still think we are in the farming era where your kids are used as labourers so you don't spend much on labour. Pray tell how many Nigerians own farms?

So which of these factors above are related to religion please? People just writing sensationalist things to gain clicks.

And as for the op..I am not surprised. It's a footprint.

juman:
@bolded
You are totally wrong.
North can be very successful country if they have REAL leaders to direct their country affairs.

I mean determined leaders like lula da silva.
I mean dedicated leaders like awolowo.
North has more than what it takes to be one of the best country on earth.

But presently they have bad "leaders" like other parts of the country.

omohayek:
I think all the arguments here about which part of the country engages in worse population padding are beside the point. Instead of looking at who is the biggest liar, why not look at why everybody is so eager to lie in the first place?

The fundamental problem is that power in Nigeria is determined by who can be most irresponsible in bringing into the world children they can't afford, or at least who is most successful in pretending to such irresponsibility. It is simply madness that states which ignore family planning, investing in female education, and other such proven methods for bringing growth rates down, are rewarded with bigger federal allocations and more voting power at election time, while any region or state that is serious about doing the sensible thing, and is honest about doing so, is punished with less money and political power. If federal allocations were changed to only match 1-1 with IGR, and INEC was given greater independence and guaranteed funding to make voting depend on verified biometric data, the previous difficulties Nigeria has had with censuses would disappear as if by magic, as the rewards for inflating population figures would no longer exist.

ONYEUTALI:
@davidif, you should stop being clueless and reply the questions staring you in the eyes. Which other West African Country is more populated in the North than in the South? What elements made Nigeria's case to contradict this phenomenon?

ONYEUTALI:
This is another shameful lie that'll be busted on the faces of the Nigerian elites when Biafra goes. The North will be forced to tell themselves the truth about their population. Right now they're feeding on Southern Tax money claiming they have 70 percent of the Nigerian population.
Which other country in West Africa had more population in the North than in the South? Why was Nigeria's different? Why does International Maps show condensed population in the South and Nigerian Maps does otherwise?
It hurt me to believe ordinary Aboki has been cheating me for 57 years. Where the hell did the Illiterate North get this smartness from?

EdCure:
Nigerian census figures have always been fraudulent from day one.



Nothing is ever done rightly.
Added to the lameduck savages up north, this country is grossly dysfunctional.

tensazangetsu20:
It's not only in the north where they have issues with child birth. The problem persists all over the country. Am igbo and you still igbos who give birth to 6, 7 children in this country. Sometimes I wonder if they know how much a good education cost. I don't even know whether to attribute this problem to high levels of illiteracy cause even the educated people give birth like pigs.

eyinjuege:
Education of the girl child will help a lot, especially in the north.
Going to school will cause delay in marriage and childbirth. Instead of starting early at 14years and having 12 children at age 40, they start age 20, and have 5 children at 40 years.
Creating awareness, awareness and more awareness is key. Radio jingles on family planning, child spacing also helps a lot.
Also more importantly is targeting the men especially in societies where the men decide on everything. Let the men understand the financial importance of child spacing, and also the health implications to the women. Let them understand training 3 children properly and empowering them would yield more rewards than having 30 children all begging on the streets and joining gangs and cults due to lack of money to train and empower them.

oz4real83:
exactly what is annoying about the whole situation! Just check all the candidates presented by major parties during presidential elections. They are not always the best from the pool of aspirants. They are the ones the parties feel can win elections and not the ones that can do the job. The ones that can do the job are either left as aspirants or still in smaller political parties but they only get ''jamb scores'' during elections which are not enough to give them the job!!!

Men dnt get used, they get sucked financially, and dumped. They shld also move on. It happens to both sexes

mmsen:
How are the worst 'forced to rule'? Is it not the cowardice of those who know better who allow it to happen?

MISSCONGENIALITY:
in Nigeria everything dey mix o.
A country where a doctor tilurns out a minister of works and a lawyer a minister of power. Most of our politicians don't know what politics is.
Even Plato as aft back as 300bc knew that a state alike only function probably if people practice what they are trained to do. You should not be a mechanic when you were trained to be a carpenter. A teacher should not do the work of a soldier. Those that rule the state should be philosopher kings( most educated and intelligent with sound reasoning and judgment) and not like Nigeria where the best a pushed to the corner while the worst are forced to rule the people for some selfish reason.
However, religion and politics can mix for a greater good. It depends on the motive of the person s involved.

ochukwuma15:
No sir!
Because they dropped from the skies.

Man is a political animal, be you priest, ifa, otangele or omenamkpo, you're free to involve in politically related matters.

Less I forget sir, Biafra is not a politically related matter, Biafra actualization is a life related matter.

Hope you know the difference sir?

[/b]i saw this while browsing, let it sink in your brain...forget tribalism at home oh.[b]

It was in the year 1963 and Nigeria's first and only Prime Minister, Sir Abubakar Tafawa Balewa took his annual leave and was off to his village to spend it. Then a British photojournalist came along but they told him the that the PM had gone on vacation.

The photojournalist then asked to which country but he was shocked when they told him the PM went to spend the vacation in his own village. To satisfy his curiosity, he decided to travel to the village. But on getting to the village, there was no sign that a big man was in town. Everyone went on their normal business and the village was peacefully quiet. Then he met a farmer along the way with his donkey carrying bales of sugarcane, and he asked from the farmer the house of the PM. The photojournalist was again left speechless when the farmer told him that he had just left the PM and that if he gets to the PM's house, which he described, he would meet him sitting on the bare floor with his kids enjoying the sugarcane that he gave them.

The British photojournalist was dazed when he reached the PM's home. The picture below is the picture that he took. May the labours of our heroes past never be in vain. Today, we have vagabonds and thieves in power. Those who disturb an entire city with sirens and their empty noises of vanity. Those who loot the treasury of an entire nation and still insult our common intelligence with their embarrassing incompetence. Nigeria has all it takes to become the greatest nation on earth. All we need are visionary, dedicated and inspiring leaders and not the shameless rogues and incorrigibly kleptomaniac bandits who lie, rob, cheat, rig and kill their way
to power.

WHEN IT IS TIME TO VOTE, REMEMBER YOUR UNBORN CHILDREN AND USE YOUR HEAD. FORGET TRIBALISM AND RELIGION...IT IS JUST ANOTHER VEIL THE DEVIL USES TO COVER OUR EYES FROM GOOD AND EVIL. BE WELL.

mars123:
look at you. is it only scamming Nigerians do to make money?

you feel you are fulfilling all righteousness by swallowing hook line and sinker the ignorant whites man's narrative of the Nigerian youth.

I am more ashamed of your ignorance because even the educated whites know the reality that Nigerians are far more enterprising and intelligent than they are willing to give credit for.

so I will say it again, fck them.

mars123:
Honestly, these people haven't seen anything yet. Let Nigerians have access to 24 hours electricity plus cheaper internet access.

They will ensure that the money looted from Nigeria to develop other foreign nations will be scammed back. No shaking!

If you comprehend how these 'develop' nations contribute to Africas situation you won't feel a thing for them.

Ms Lam, China has a population of over 1 billion with cases of females being aborted because the Chinese prefer males.
This means that there are more men than women in China. The question is: Why can't you find a man in China? Something wrong?

...that would have shut her up.

zuto4u:
I weep for my dear country Nigeria ��. We are hated worldwide. I am even tired of defending Nigeria here. U guys need to see where my colleagues from Ghana, Kenya, South Africa, Uganda and Cameroon are talking about Nigeria, Sometimes I feel like disappearing from their midst.

eyinjuege:
China is still the country with the highest number of scammers on earth.
That woman should go and face her Chinko people first before shouting Nigeria all over the place

Beht, let's talk true to ourselves, lets stop doing yahoo yahoo..
This embarrassment is getting too much

JimaeChinko:
I tell you I lose a lot of prospective clients even from fellow African countries as soon as they discover that I am a Nigerian. Honest Nigerians are really losing a lot due to this bad reputation.

madridsta007:
It's easy to beat the whites into silence in a debate. Ensure you are well-read, you have factual data, you write excellently well and you are adept at deploying sarcasm as they are brilliant with that. Of course, remind them of their brutal colonialist past and the evils of neocolonialism which the West are the chief purveyors. You can beat them with critical reasoning. For instance, how can one tell the origin or the nationalities in that picture? Expose their ignorance by being critical with your views.

They will run away before you even get going. They are my friends and they never get into a debate with me. The other time, one was regurgitating that revisionist theory that, "you Africans sold yourselves....". I finished him that day till he apologised.

Enter into a debate with them without knowledge and they will make you hate yourself!

YOU THINK CHINESE ARE THE ONES DESTROYING OUR IMAGE? I DONT UNDERSTAND HOW nigerians REASON. WHAT IMAGE DO YOU HAVE IN THE EYES OF INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY?

Omoluabi16:
Do we really think foreigners are not in here, or on guest mode? while we denigrate ourselves in the name of Ncan, Igbo, conehead and those tribalist nonsense, they see us as NIGERIANS and will paint us with same brush. If igbo push coco, the yorubas there go suffer am too, if Yoruba do online fraud it's vice versa. We are hypocrites.we do worse and say worse to ourselves everyday. abeg Chinco yab on!
