Intrigant animal, always boasting and want to measure with your superior master.

Empty barrel. You are just a low life.

NgwaManEatyou1:
Who is laughing with this primitive goat, I said mention your tribe and their achievement and you are laughing like someone under Glory hole. Spit.

Werey, I am laughing at your senseless , incoherent rants.

NgwaManEatyou1:
If your useless tribesmen achieve what igbos have achieved then you will be considered by us, reason we look down of your type is simply you guys are not worth leaving together as countrymen.

Tell me your useless tribe and what you guys have achieved that we are not best on it

Delusion grandeur.. All your empty boast that did not amount into anything in the past, is what you keep at, in 2023. People are looking at you weeping for you, while you look at yourself smiling. Something is wrong, as you never own up to your irresponsibility.

NgwaManEatyou1:
But igbo has always rule you and your useless tribesmen,Zik gave your slavish grand parents independence,Ironsi gave you the federal government while ekwueme created south south as vice president,what tribe are you and who was your president from that tribe, useless illiterate.

So, Igbo created Nigeria, but why are they still complaining about their creation and achievements?

Enough of this bridge paparazzi,it's just a bridge and not a rocket launcher going to venus

Nigeria money don big pass announcing all these things.

Money Wey you put into Nigeria purse Abi? How much did you pay into Nigeria tax in 2022?

Awon senseless werey. You destroyed the little that you have. What I know is that, when you are in a hole, you stop digging. This generation appears doomed.

The source can't just be instagram? Has the news been carried by any major news media in Nigeria

Allisgud:
listen!the dubai china,Singapore Qatar u see today progressing is not because they are too religious or well manerd,they are afraid of the law,the govt of china knows it's citizen bad attitude that is why they have to build police stations in Nigeria to arrest those who misbehave in diaspora

Who is the govt? Is it the President, governor, house of rep, civil servants? Are these people from a different planet? Are they not people like us, taken among us?

Allisgud:
answer this question,am I or are u in authority to give strict rules and enforcement to carry orders if no is ur answer,then u need to reason

One does not need to be in authority in order to contribute to the mess we find ourselves. However authority has levels . From Councillor , to LG chairman, to Civil Servants, religious leaders, community leaders etc. If you drive one way, illegal power connection, offer or take bribe, steal from your employer, etc, you've contributed to the mess we found ourselves. So enough of looking for scapegoats. The political leaders, religious leaders, Civil servants etc are taken from the pool among us.

babaoloola:
Your last sentence is fallacious.

Indians, Pakistanis, Philipinos, Bangladesh, etc all complain too! They talk about bad leaders and economy. Anyone who lived in UAE and friends with them can confirm this.

Why won't Nigerians abroad complain? Almost everyone who you call to greet is telling hurrible stories and living in fear. Should they be in love with a system that sent them out in the cold to be second class citizens??

I disagree. It's only Nigerians I see that denigrate their country the way we do. I have friends that cuts across the globe. But they don't heap all the frustration in their life on the Govt. . Something about us that will take only someone with a different mindset to see. Some will complain and exaggerate their situation, just to make you send them money. There are cities in the USA that their security stats will make you stay away from that place. Gun killings, gang shooting, police brutality etc is not uncommon there. Yet, you will not see Americans blacklisting their country.

chinchum:
it doesn't matter. Some who raised that money could not secure a job and did not even have a job.

The black man needs to overcome crab mentality. Those leaving is not your immediate concern. I can tell you your issue is the 'i better pass my neighbor" syndrome. Many if not most who leave will succeed with the right mentality in a matter of years or even months. 15million naira is less than 20,000usd. It is a paltry sum for most who migrate to 1st world economies. If you are doing great in Nigeria too , be happy with yourself, focus on growth and expansion in your sphere.

Some of the things you said makes sense. The only thing to add is that not everyone who complains about the noise and attitude of those who Japa are in Nigeria. Some are abroad themselves or have the means to japa. But find it annoying by the noise that some people who travels out made. Especially of putting down the country. Chinese, phillipines and Indians do migrate to other countries, but they don't project their frustrations on their country of origin like some Nigerians do.

lhordspy:
Governor Inuwa please increase the volume. Na people wey no get structure dey shake.

We remember back in 2011, where PDP was pulling out different numbers from nowhere. With Goodluck jonathan getting a total votes of almost 12m votes from south-east which was and is still sparsely populated.

With IMo state producing over 1.2m votes. Funny isnt?

2015 was better, 2019 was near perfect. 2023 will be amazing.

Exactly. Also, governorship election results could be total 200,000 votes but Presidential election will return 1 million votes. That is why some people will never forgive GEJ for allowing Jega to conduct 2015 election. They believed he shot himself in the foot by not allowing rigging. He earned my respect for that. An OBJ will never conduct or allow a credible election. To him, it is do or die. Buhari and GEJ beats OBJ silly in that aspect.

Allisgud:
I think the govt is our problem,not the people,which is our constitution,if Nigeria will work let the govt create a rule and enforce it apply it to anybody poor and the elite,remove immunity,this is how the country will work

The people are the government. You have been made to believe that the government are people from another country or planet. They are a true reflection of who we are. Take it and we will start to get it right from there.
Let's face it, you and I, plus the people in govt , who are taken from the pool of you and I, are the problem. Enough of finger pointing and blame game.

Angelfrost:
How did the people in USA become this way??!

Were they born this way or were Africans and Nigerians created this way?!!

Such words and arguments like yours make me laugh!

Great leaders make great nations even out of the worst of people!


Akwa-Ibom became the cleanest state in Nigeria and one of the cleanest in West Africa not because the people all had a general sanitation epiphany out of the blues... Nope, a leader arose that saw the need for change, channeled efforts and resources to achieve this, convinced his people to walk the path, and it happened.

Waiting for sheep to lead themselves will never work please...!

Quit throwing blames at a rudderless and badly led people... If people could lead themselves, then why do we need to elect leaders?!!

So, point of correction:

If you take the leaders in today's Japan and replace them with those in Nigeria and vice versa, Nigeria will become a world power while Japan will become a third world nation!

Good thing you mention Akwa Ibom. That means other state government can copy what works in Akwa Ibom. But will they? Many things are driven at the local level, state and federal, but is it happening?
Using this same logic as you, if you replace US citizens with Nigerians and retain their Presidents and State governors as it is (Americans), can you imagine what will become of that country in 8 years? Food for thoughts.

Samunique:
Thanks for this sensible post !!!

99% of the commenters are busy abusing and calling me all manner of names, as if I discouraged anyone from Japan.

Maybe they didn't bother reading the op before committing.

They are mostly educated illiterates.

Samunique:
I've watched with amazement and bewilderment how the social media nairaland inclusive, have been filled with the stories of leaving Nigeria to other countries with the impression that, once they get there their problems are over. I think this big fat lie will hunt, and may destroy our future generations if nothing is done about it.

1. They believe once you leave the shores of this country, you have nothing to worry about again bcs automatic success is now guaranteed. If this is true, what happens to many Nigerians that are now stranded after so many years abroad ? Is the system over there a contributory factor as well

2. Government is bad !
Yes Nigerian government is very bad, if not the worst in the whole world. But then, who is the government, isn't it you and I ? Are we forgetting that a government is a product of the society and the reflection of its people ?
If the government is bad, then we're bad as a people !

This very generation of Nigerian youths is worse than the current leaders of the pass/outgoing generation they're blaming.

At least, our current leaders did not practice Yahoo Yahoo, Yahoo plus, they did not steal women pants for money ritual, they didn't engage in kidnapping for quick money etc in their time. But this generation does and even far worst things. I'm not in anyway exhonorating them bcs they have really messed up this country. But this generation is now worst than them.

Yes our pass and current leaders steal our collective wealth ? They did/do so bcs we allow them to, based on ethic, tribal and religious sentiments. In fact continuous stealing is only possible in the society of thieves and robbers. If all we could produce as leaders are thieves and looters, then that's who we all are as a people.

These same people that are preaching "JAPA" now, will never obey a simple traffic rule while in Nigeria, but they're there now throw every kind of stone against their own country.
Ask them what's their own contribution back home towards nation building.

Did they ever obey simple traffic rule?

What about paying their taxes, what was their contribution to social development and services etc ?

These things and more they're willingly do over there bcs they know that the
[b]the sicitzens of those countries make law and systems to work not even the governments, and they cannot hid under a finger. Remove the law and oder over there, and see them showing their true colours.

Lastly, I think there are some external forces behind this sudden propaganda of japa. I know Nigeria is at it worst state since it started as a nation, but if we all run away, who will rescue and build it, where would we run back to when the jungle is matured outside ?

Nations are built by their citizens.

And for those of you outside Nigeria whose job now is to mock and denigrate the country, remember your people are still leaving here.

Some are even going as far as mocking God, the two major religions, saying all manner of things against the church, mosque etc. For your information, Nigerians have always been religious, it's in our DNA. There's a time Nigeria was working, our currency was better than the British pounds. My mother's senior brothers who schooled in the UK came back to Nigeria to work, and that didn't make people less religious.

Maybe you forgot, I will remind some of you that, some of your parents wouldn't have been educated but for the help the church and missionary Schools .

Build, don't destroy the Nation


Nlpf mod, DisGuy, justwise, seun, lalasticlala and co

You are right. Unfortunately, Nigerians are just very loud and lousy people. Nigerians are even minorities in the countries they run to. Indians, Chinese, and even philipinos have higher migration rate, but you don't see them making useless noise like we do. Quite unfortunate the character of our people. They will be behaving like children that has never been exposed to wealth

Check my posts, I've been dealing with him all day long. He's a troll. Follows me around everywhere. I think he's attracted to me. I told him I'm engaged but he's trying to smooth talk me with his rude banter

I think he's on the down low.

cc Starzo

Are you also not male? He is following you? I'm definitely missing something.

WannaHowzit:
Lol, Burna Boy vowed to never again perform in SA until we apologized for "xenophobic" attacks. Next thing he was singing Jerusalema in Zulu

No apology issued

I get the attraction for your celebs to SA - it's the escalators.

I read on NL you use your only Shoprite escalator in Naija as a joyride. In the year 2022

You get bad mouth. See as you dey diss your fellow African.

Nigerians lets learn to stop the habit of perpetual relentless complaining. A bag of Urea is now over 60% than what it was years before now

You dey mind them? They are just mentally lazy. Always wanting something for next to nothing.

IPOB success.

Well said. Happy birthday to our dear President

No political party is spared. I like that.
In Anambra state, it is pay for play. No time...

PitObi will learn this lesson in a very hard way.
