What lie have i told ohhhhhhhhh?

The lie that Bola is doing well.

But no worries, you are an old paddy here so you gas some rights.

Codedworld1:
But if not that we Nigerians are just a foolish person. Same state as a representation down to the local government but we choose to call tinubu where other elected personel failed in their job. Honestly we are not ready let's keep doing content with our lives.

No other elected person did the things he singularly did to enthrone hardship.

HacheNoire:
How do you expect the government to take Peter Ogbudu serious?

Should I remind you that Peter Ogbudu was a drug addict that was rehabilitated in the United Kingdom, and previously spent TEN years in a psychiatric home in Lagos, Nigeria?

Y’all expect the government to react to everything but never consider the mental status of the messenger!

People like you and Seunmsg and Image123 are wasting your energy telling lies to Nigerians because everyone including yourselves feels the negative difference brought about by this govt. And the vast majority are clear in their minds that this govt is no good for them. No amount of talk changes the pain of the cost of living, the power situation or the unspeakable security situation. Most of you only parrot what you do as a result of ethnic chauvinism. Nothing more.

Bola is likely to win next year, but that's no result of popularity for sure. A mix of the stupid division of opposition and rigging will ensure that.

Like Trump supporters, I urge you all to just enjoy. The weeping of Nigerians under this insensitive govt will not last forever nor can Bola rule forever. A day will come when he will go and then you can revert to criticizing whoever is there even if he is doing better.

DoWhatThouWilt:
When living life peacefully is becoming impossible in Nigeria, The very first thing Nigerians think of doing is Japa!

Let me tell you why.

They prefer doing that than following the usual keypad warrior advice of brain54 below...





....because they know that unity in Nigeria is impossible.

With a few cartons of indomie and a bag of rice, or a fake news that one tribe is burning the shop and house of another tribe, politicians can turn a peaceful nationwide protest into chaos and anarchy.

They know the right buttons to push to disunite us because they know who nigerians really are, a group of people who named a generator "I beta pass my neighbour".

Digression. Are you a Satanist or a disciple of Aleister Crowley?

Kushites:
DON'T GIVE ME THIS BULLCRAP.

IF YOU COME IN HERE AND TYPE RACIST NONSENSE AGAINST THE BLACK RACE WHICH CIVILISED THIS WORLD, AND WITHOUT WHICH THE ENTIRE WORLD WOULD BE LIVING IN CAVES, YOU WILL BE MET WITH FACTS.

POWERFUL FACTS YOU CAN'T REFUTE.

UNDERSTOOD?

IF YOU MUST CRITICISE, YOU DO SO WITH THE SAME RESPECT YOU LAVISH ON SO-CALLED WHITE PEOPLE.

UNDERSTOOD??

Stopped at first line again. I am allergic to such childishness. Good luck.

Kushites:
WILL YOU SHUT UP AND GO AND RESEARCH BEFORE TYPING RUBBISH?

NAME THE BLACK COUNTRIES YOU HAVE RESEARCH OR VISITED IN YOUR LIFE?

DON'T BOTHER. WE KNOW IT'S A BIG FAT ZERO.

HAVE YOU EVER STEPPED FOOT IN, OR RESEARCHED BOTSWANA, TRINIDAD AND TOBAGO, THE BAHAMAS, JAMAICA, GABON, NAMIBIA, GUYANA, RWANDA, TANZANIA, ANGOLA, BARBADOS, ANTIGUA, OR EVEN KENYA, SENEGAL, IVORY COAST, GAMBIA, ETC?

NO!

YOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT THEM

ZERO.

ALL YOU KNOW IS YOUR WESTERN PROPAGANDA OF "AFRICA BAD, WHITE MAN ANGEL".

WHAT ELSE IS IN YOUR HEAD?

ZERO. NOTHING.

NUMEROUS BLACK AND AFRICAN COUNTRIES HAVE FAR HIGHER LIVING STANDARDS THAN INDIA, PAKISTAN, BANGLADESH, SRI LANKA, AND EVEN SOME POORER EUROPEAN COUNTRIES LIKE TAJIKISTAN, AZERBAIJAN, ALBANIA. ETC.

DID YOU KNOW THAT?

SHOULD I DROP THE FIGURES, INCLUDING UN HDI FIGURES?

DARE ME!




SO WHY IS INDIA WITH OVER A BILLION ASIANS POORER THAN MANY AFRICAN COUNTRIES?

THESE COUNTRIES YOU ARE INSULTING LIKE JAMAICA AND GUYANA, YOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT THEM, APART FROM THE SKIN COLOUR OF THE PEOPLE, OR YOU WOULD NEVER TYPE THIS ARRANT NONSENSE ABOUT THEM.

I HAVE BEEN TO THOSE COUNTRIES.

THEY ARE HIGHLY ORGANISED AND PROSPEROUS.

ARE YOU EVEN AWARE THAT 13 OF THE 20 FASTEST GROWING ECONOMIES ON EARTH TODAY ARE AFRICAN?

ARE YOU AWARE THAT AFRICA HAS THE FASTEST GROWING MIDDLE CLASS ON EARTH?

HOW WILL YOU KNOW?

HAVE YOU FINISHED WATCHING CNN TELLING YOU ABOUT 'HAITI' AND 'BOKO HARAM'?

THE LESS OF YOUR TYPE WE HAVE IN AFRICA AND NIGERIA, THE BETTER FOR THE CONTINENT.

INSTEAD OF BEING LAZY AND CONDITIONED BY CNN TO SEE EVERY BLACK COUNTRY AS BROKEN, USE YOUR BRAIN AND RESEARCH, AND LEARN.

NONSENSE.

Gosh. While I am in lockstep with you on this matter you really need to drop the aggressive way of reacting. Wirinet has not yet said much, simply the obvious truth that the generality of African nations lag behind as of now. Wirinet, I can assure you, is a big thinker who is not thoughtless or shallow in the least. If he decides to address you, rest assured he will be coming with serious nuggets for thought.

seunmsg:
A video was posted online yesterday of people beating someone in a market. Someone brought it to Nairaland and claimed the person went to campaign for Tinubu and they started beating. Without any APC insignia, without any audio to support the claim and with no proof whatsoever, the moderator rushed it to front page. I saw the thread and shake my head. Now that this video surfaced today with clear audio and visual evidence, they are calling it propaganda.

But you do the same. Your bias is just the same as what you have described.

wirinet:
Because, no black civilisation is thriving as of today. All black majority countries are a basket case of corruption, poverty, wars and underdevelopment. Countries governed by white and Asian people tend to develop with a few decades, ie Australia, white South Africa, New Zealand, while countries ruled by blacks tend to disintegrate with a few decades, ie Haiti, black ruled South Africa, Jamaica, Guyana, Liberia.
The blackman tend to be more interested in satisfying selfish primordial instincts of person interests, sex, religion, celebrations, etc,than collective interests that develop the whole society.

And what do you consider responsible for this? Simple inferiority of black people, or just the normal tide of history and evolution of societies in progress.

raumdeuter:
Fitting that the black conservative you tolerate is dead

No living one.

There is nothing like death in this matter. Not relevant.

raumdeuter:
Which party does not believe in the right ro life liberty and pursuit of happiness

The closest I know is the Democratic party the party of slavery and Jim crow

That want to keep black in the plantation little wonder that Democrat run city are usually hell holes for blacks from Chicago to Memphis to Baltimore etc

But you are the one who agrees that blacks were better off under Jim Crowe.

raumdeuter:
Discrimination on the base of racial origin is wrong

Oh really? This is your view? You could have fooled me.

raumdeuter:
Name one black conservative you tolerate

Late Colin Powell.

The things people who don't live in the US say to pretend they live in the US but actually gives more credence to the fact that they don't live in the US.

Wasn't that statement so insane?

Comical!

ijebosb:
He's basically asking, show me a human who supports the ebola virus.

Rational black people don't support a party that does not believe in their right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
Any black person who does, does so because they have made a shrewd calculation that the financial/emotional gain of being tokenized is worth it and will insulate them from the harm of that party being in power.

Mostly. There will be those however who do so on religious / moral grounds especially over LGBTQ and Abortion issues, etc. In addition to a small amount of people who just earnestly think more conservatively in terms of policy.

benalvino3:
Dude, show me one black person that does not support democrats that you like?

Modern day slavery and boot licking.

I am sure many of us can actually tolerate the black person who simply prefers conservative views and policies from a truly ideological view point and who is fairly balanced in thinking such that he can criticize evil wherever he sees it. Such a person is completely different from the Uncle Toms here who aggressively put down and denigrate all things black and aggressively promote white supremacy and defend discrimination against blacks and racism, who dedicate themselves to the worship of white supremacy and defend with all their energy any abominations or atrocities committed against black people while jumping to accuse the entire black race of all things vile once they see the slightest imperfection anywhere, such as one fraudulent market woman.

benalvino3:
Here in the US, people don't cheat like it appears in the video.

Joker.

benalvino3:
More like misleading.
Throw all the excuses in and run away from the real issue.

When you people are wrong, the narcissistic brain cells in your heads won't allow you guys to admit it.

Do people cheat like appears in that video in advanced countries?

You are ignoring the elephant in the room by introducing bigfoot to the equation.

Jman06:
You are a full! There's nothing to be ashamed of because I did not grape her. She fully consented and was above the age of consent at the time. This is how you woke wannabes deceive some men into marrying menopausal women and then end up battling with infertility yet you accuse them wrongly for the infertility. Someone like me can't be so deceived because I'm smart enough to know all the drawbacks of marrying old women.

Cry-cry cradle snatcher.

seunmsg:
You have no understanding of how to govern and manage the economy. What we need right now is a reform minded pragmatic leader and not a people pandering populist. Without Tinubu, Nigeria’s economy would have collapsed. Now that we have steadied the economy to an extent, we won’t rush back to dishing out unsustainable freebies like you all are asking for.

We need to sustain the gains and build the foundation for great wealth and shared prosperity and not fritter away the result. So, we need consolidation for the next four years. That’s what Tinubu will do from 2027-2031. We don’t want another Senegal happening here. Thanks.

You are just an ethnic supremacist. The man who has destroyed the economy has saved it in your tribalistic view. Of course.

Jman06:
Keep consoling yourselves while wiser girls are getting married on weekly basis! It is the "wokeness" of some women of this generation that will be their eventual karma!

I'm in my mid to late 30s while my girl is 19. She's already pregnant for me and in a few weeks, we'll finalise our marriage. Some of you tend to forget that immediately a girl goes through pregnancy and bears a child, her body automatically changes and matures overnight. This is one reason many married men keep side chicks and cheat on their wives! Immediately the girl bears a child, she ages and becomes unattractive.

Many of us who understand how the female body works prefer to marry far younger girls so that even after childbirth, she'll not become too unattractive but can still be managed to some few years before she eventually turns into agbaya like most women do.

Some of you like to believe falsehoods just to feel good about yourselves forgetting that reality remains what it is.

And you are not ashamed?
Late thirties impregnating a teenager and you are blabbing?

Shame on you boy.

Kukutente23:
Lol
He's simply doing that to exert total control over the party
He can now say he produced a candidate according to his whims for the first time after so many failed attempts including a personal failure. So now he can claim he has maximum conto over party affairs just like Tinubu had over AC and now APC.

But the irony is that it's at the cost of the party itself. So it's a classic case of a phyrric victory for him because his hands are so being forced and he's presiding over a shadow of what the party was yet he's been able to chase away so his would be challengers and take the nameplate PDP for himself

And what would the shell be when he is ready to use it for himself? Nothing.

Because I doubt he will ever be properly integrated into APC. They are too wise to bring in the bull to the china shop.

Kukutente23:
What's that supposed to achieve

Ask the baggar. He's a useless man. And it's frankly a useless country that can permit the sort of travesty he is putting out.

I am not suggesting anything other than the question asked, to ensure the public is not misled about applicants and holders.

Alright.

anonimi:
Are applicants the same as holders



https://eurweb.com/trump-green-card-applicants-must-leave-us/

What are you suggesting here, that it is reasonable to ask applicants to go back to their countries and apply from there? To my knowledge the very things that entitle some categories of people to apply often require some length of presence in the US.

anonimi:
Claim is more representative than expect, in this context.

If our efforts are not on reducing our tribalistic tendencies to zone and rotate offices for sharing the national cake of corruption, but rather on how racism prevents us from having FULL benefits of human rights and social justice evolution in oyinbo societies, then how can our underdevelopment issues naturally even themselves out with time?

I dont agree that zoning is representative of tribalism. It is an autochthonous mechanism developed to balance out power in a complex and multi-faceted society in order to ensure that no part of the country is over-dominated by another part. If Rwanda had had such a system they would likely not have experienced their bloody genocide.

I also think its extreme to attribute our state of development to a zoning principle which is relatively recent in our system and is not even codified in our laws.

Why did you not wait for time to naturally even out the racial outburst of your European MD in the SA company, instead of escalating it and WORKING through procedures for redress, which led to his dismissal?

I didn't say it was an SA company, I only mentioned that that sort of thinking was prevalent in apartheid SA. It was a European Multinational operating in Nigeria.

I take some exception to the bold. Because this kind of framing suggests that the mere fact that one can theorize about the long term results of current realities means that one does not believe in practical actions everyday in every issue.

I dont know how people keep attributing this to me simply because I try to analyze with a wide lens and long term view both from the past and into the future, the trajectory of a race. For example, just because of exactly the same analysis, I am told that on account of people like me, Africa will not develop!

Kukutente23:
Well he ended up saying one thing and doing the other
He said he'll support Tinubu for 2027
His party now has a presidential candidate

AS deliberately designed.

anonimi:
It’s nice that you got him fired for being loud about something that happens whether people are loud about it or not.

As I imagine you understand, such one off reprisals won’t change the fact that we Africans have made ourselves the lowest of the low in the world due to our unevolved tribalistic mindset of using zoning and rotation to share the national cake of corruption in local, state and federal governments in the legislative and executive branches.

The irony of it all is our entitlement mindset to the fruits of a better society built by oyinbos’ evolved human rights culture. Something that we don’t try with Asians, who are yet to evolve as much in human rights and social justice system.





https://www.nairaland.com/post/93103247

My view is that the development issues most of Africa is passing through are quite to be expected given the myriad factors I have oft pointed out and will naturally even themselves out with time.

But if I hear what you are saying here correctly, am I right to say that you are saying that we expect human rights which are alien to us from white people, while not expecting same from Asians who also dont have the "evolved human rights culture" of the West?

Also whats the relevance of the link you added?

bemeruca:
Deepsight, the corruption runs from the ground up. Nigeria, given 300 years from now, will still be in underdeveloped with your kind of mentality.

How will my mindset contribute to the underdevelopment of Nigeria. I really get tired of they way you continuously try to make out that the mere fact that one studies the many factors involved in a human development problem with a wide lens automatically means that one is lazy and takes no responsibility OR ADVOCATES that people should be lazy, corrupt and take no responsibility.

That's just BS.

This kind of sharp practice happens every were in the world. It is even recorded in the bible as those who use false weights and measurements, and it says the Lord despises them.

When you see such anywhere else in the world, will you go to a Professor of Anthropology or Sociology in that same country and say he is the cause since he studies and presents factors of human development over history?

Please don't be irritating with the BS.
