thebosstrevor1:

[s]Let's keep inciting violence and lets keep supporting violence, it is very good.

Since, many of you love violence, keep supporting it.

When violence comes, you will beg violence to stop but it wont stop. You will beg it to go but it won't go.

It will make sure, it rapes your sisters, it will take away all your families and some of your body parts, when violence is done with you, you will beg God to take your life but he won't listen, violence will make you so disfigured that even your fellow violence supporters will pity and desert you.

Go to liberia, to Rwanda, to sierra leone and other African countries that invited violence, go check how they are fairing.

The number of ophans is alarming high, how about chopped hands and legs, how about disfigured faces, and how about women that are suffering because of ptsd from being rape victims.

Since you all love violence, continue to invite it and let it make your land its home, Continue, it is good. Lets support violence, it is good for the body and soul, the beautiful thing is that violence will help Nigeria reduce her population atleast, those that are alive wont wake up to see an over crowded country.

Have fun supporting violence. [/s]


The people peacefully agitated for self-determination, you visited them with Python dance and a tag of terrorist. You and bloody fool called Buhari cannot search for blames elsewhere.

Cocoa was used to build Lagos
, Cocoa and industrial port revenues were used, Lagos is over 200yrs old, it’s owned by Yorubas, but if you want Lagos, you can come and claim it with the Nigeria military, make sure you enlist and come with them. Your grave inside the Atlantic is already waiting and calling for you.

Most Nigerians are goofy as hell. Cocoa money used develop Lagos instead of Ibadan. The characters from certain section of Nigeria are inherently loudmouthed and funny story tellers. The capital of Oduduwa, Omo parapa, Ibadan remained a backwater till date yet the glorified "No man's land" is developed with cocoa. Days are gone when people have time to listen to the rooster and bull story about wrestling match cum Kiriji war which had been turned into world war III by the colorful fabulists.

etokhana:



Kano State Governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje has rejected any attempt to break up Nigeria, cautioning that some groups might want to use the opportunity of the constitutional amendment exercise to seek secession.

Ganduje spoke on Wednesday in Kano at the House of Representatives Special Committee on the Review of the 1999 Constitution, which is holding at Bristol Palace Hotel.

The governor observed that his position was in tandem with the position of the people of the region, insisting that Nigeria was stronger and bigger in the eyes of the world as one big united country.

The Kano governor acknowledged differences of tribe, ethnicity and religion among Nigerians, stressing that these distinctions were so designed by God and are not the handiwork of man.

He argued that Nigeria’s diversity could become a positive factor if it is harnessed for good purposes.

‘Our problem in Nigeria is that we allow our diversity to be a challenge and we fail to convert this challenge to opportunities,’ said the governor.

Governor Ganduje insisted that every ethnic nationality in Nigeria has an inherent trait and lifeways which, when properly harnessed, would help make Nigeria a greater country.

in his remarks, Alhassan Ado Doguwa, Chairman, Kano Center of the House of Representatives Special Committee on the Review of the 1999 Constitution (As Amended), recalled that in the 62 years of Independence, the calls for the review of different sections of the Nigeria Constitution have remained very audible.

He said that efforts to review the current constitution have been a constant feature of the National Assembly since 1998.

The Majority leader offered that the focus of the House of Representatives was to give all Nigerians a chance to fully participate in the process of amending the 1999 constitution and to eventually come up with a document that would meet the expectations of all citizens.

Kwanza:


The Oluwo of Iwoland in Osun State, Oba Abdulrosheed Akanbi, on Wednesday, warned that South West will suffer if Nigeria breaks up now and begged youths agitating for the Yoruba nation to calm down.

He said this during the official presentation of the Osun Youth Policy Document of the State Ministry of Youths by the State Governor, Mr Adegboyega Oyetola, in Osogbo, the state capital.

The monarch lauded Oyetola’s administration for its good plans for the youths in the state and urged the youths to cooperate with the government to deliver rather than agitate for a breakup.

Oba Akanbi said only Lagos can pay the salary of its civil servants without waiting for money from the federal government, saying that other South-West states cannot pay salaries of their workers and that majority of people in the region were civil servants.


‘Youths are important’

Speaking at the event, Oyetola said youths are very critical to his administration’s sustainable development and explained that the Osun Youth Policy Document was developed to empower the young people in the State.

The newly-unveiled Youth Policy Document has four components -Youth Empowerment, Youth Engagement, Youth Entrepreneurship and Youth Education.

Oyetola said his administration had enunciated a clear policy framework to ensure that an enabling environment is created for the youths to maximally realise their creative and productive potential.

He said the Osun Youth Policy Document contains a commitment by the government, the youth of the State and the society in pursuance of youth development and growth.

He said, “As captured in the Policy, youth development is holistic and integrated, requiring the support and active involvement of all relevant Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs), Youth Organisations, Non-Governmental Organisations and the Public Sector, Private Sector and Philanthropists.”

Oyetola, who described youths as the most productive, efficient and energetic segment of the population, said his administration had invested tremendously in them as part of efforts to build a virile and sustainable economy and ensure all-around growth and development

I'm Fully For Yoruba Nation, Nigeria's Breakup —Lagos Monarch
The traditional ruler stated that the country is damaged beyond repairs and fiscal democracy which has been provided as a solution is too late to redeem the destruction of Nigeria.


A monarch in the Somolu-Bariga area of Lagos, Oba Gbolahan Timson says restructuring is no longer a remedy to Nigeria’s numerous problems. 

He identified the solution as the disintegration of the country along ethnic lines.


The traditional ruler stated that the country is damaged beyond repairs and fiscal democracy which has been provided as a solution is too late to redeem the destruction of Nigeria.

He also said the Oyo State-based rights activist, Sunday Igboho has just rewritten his name as one of Yoruba legends to be remembered in history because of his selfless efforts to realise the sovereignty of the Yoruba nation.

Timson disclosed this in a video on Monday while reacting to the massive supporters that Sunday Igboho had amassed within a short of period of time.

“Restructuring is too late. It’s no longer a solution. The nation is faulty beyond repairs. If it’s for me and my household, I support Sunday Igboho and other Yoruba agitators for self-determination of the Yoruba people to have the Oduduwa Republic. When they have been telling the Nigerian government about regional resource control and fiscal federalism, they didn't heed the call,” Timson said.

The monarch, however, said that he would prefer that Yoruba people break away from Nigeria without war, while adding that the agitation for self-determination became so paramount to Igboho because some murderous Fulani herders killed his relative who had recently relocated to the country to invest in large scale farming.

“But, all I’m particular about is that we should not go to war. We should not carry arms to separate or secede. The reason why Igboho is hell-bent on the Oduduwa Republic was that the Fulani herdsmen killed his relative.

“His relative had made a fortune abroad and came to Nigeria to invest in large scale farming, but these criminal Fulani people killed him on his farm. There was no way such a heinous act would not trigger agitation. He believed if he didn’t take any action to separate the Yoruba people from these Fulani, this would continue,” he added.

The Oba further said that old legends in Yoruba folklore always won their battles but most of their setbacks came from betrayal from their own people, stressing that the Yoruba people should support Sunday Igboho.

He also said that one of the repercussions of such betrayal was the reason why Lisabi and Alaafin Aole cursed the Yoruba nation.

“And let me tell you, there is no way the modern history of Yoruba will be written now that Sunday Igboho will not be there because of his selfless service to rescue Yoruba people from modern slavery. Sunday Igboho can be likened to old brave Yoruba warlords like Lisabi, Ogendengbe of Kiriji War, Adubi, and others.

“Yoruba people from Egba betrayed Lisabi after he fought for them, and he cursed them. That was the reason for all these issues of Abiola and Shonekan, Awolowo and Ogundipe and the rest in modern politics. There would not be time for me to go deep into it.

“Sunday Igboho will succeed with this agitation he has started. There was no warrior in Yoruba that had a purpose that didn’t fulfil it but the obstacle was the curse placed on the Yoruba people due to the betrayal. So we just have to support him. He needs to succeed,” he said.

This is long but it is worth reading

When Tafawa Balewa was Prime Minister of Nigeria -

- Chief of Army Staff was from SE
- Chief of Naval Staff was from SE
- IG of Police was from SE
- Chief of Defence Staff was from SE
- Internal Affairs Minister from SE
External Affairs
Minister SE
- Education Minister South SE
Many other key ministerial positions to the SE
- Parliament President SE
- Unilag VC from SE
- The University of Ibadan VC from SE
*BUT, North resisted same at ABU!*


Still, there was dissatisfaction by SE. The officers from the SE region killed this same Balewa !!!!

Out of all the most senior officers in Nigeria:
SE has 37, none was killed.
8 from the north, all of them were killed.
10 from the west, 2 were killed.

Then Ironsi imposed a unitary system of government on the country so that everything can belong to a region who snatched it!

_We must know our history so that when we want to make corrections, we will not end up concealing the truth._ This has nothing to do with tribalism but everything to do with the truth..... at times when lies litter the streets, there is a tendency to think those are truths and facts.

_The following are documented facts that can be cross-checked for authenticity !_

*“Prof. Ben Nwabueze was the man who drafted the constitution that took away powers from the regions and handed it to the central government because his brother Aguiyi Ironsi was the Head of State then.* Today, he is shouting restructuring that which he helped to destroy. We won’t forget.”.

WHAT BIAFRANS WILL NEVER TELL YOU ABOUT THE REAL CAUSE OF THEIR WOES IN NIGERIA TODAY:

The Igbo man is known to enjoy blaming the Hausa-fulanis, Yorubas and indeed every other Nigerian tribe and Lord Luggard/Britain for their seeming claim of being in third class citizen status in Nigeria. In their perpetual attempts to play the victim card, they recount the political events of Nigeria from 1914 to the present in a half-baked and highly selective manner which cleverly avoids the mention of the roles played by their elite who by all natural laws of judgment were actually responsible for the woes that befell not only the Igbo race but the entire Nigeria nation. The story told in the post above is one of such selective and distorted accounts of history which the average Igbo man is fond of narrating.

However, the national archives have the complete and unedited history of Nigeria regarding the political events beginning way back from even before 1914. I will therefore proceed to furnish my readers with the complete story for all to read and be endowed with enough facts so as to judge and act from an informed position.

Shortly after the 1914 Amalgamation of the Northern and Southern Protectorates, it started getting clear that the country was bound to fail as the amalgamation in question was done with colonial fiat without the consent and consensus of the different tribes which were over 300. This prompted the political leaders to start asking for de-amalgamation so as to forestall the future danger which the forced amalgamation portended.

To that end, *Ahmadu Bello* speaking on behalf of the Northern protectorate in 1944 *described the amalgamation as "The mistake of 1914* which if allowed to remain will ultimately lead to unstoppable bloodshed and a failed country".
*Awolowo* speaking on behalf of the Yorubas and Western minorities, *described Nigeria as a mere geographical expression not qualified to be called a country let alone a nation* Awolowo added *that if the amalgamation could not be reversed, then Nigeria should be structured as a strictly federal state so as to enable each tribe enjoy autonomy* - freedom from being dominated by any one single tribe.

*But Nnamdi Azikiwe* speaking for the Igbos, *denounced Awolowo and Ahmadu Bello, terming them ethnic champions* He accused them of nursing a sectional agenda against the unity of Nigeria, and he declared further *that the Unity of Nigeria was non-negotiable*

After moving the Motion for independence in 1953, Anthony Enahoro proposed that a secession clause should be incorporated into the future constitution of Nigeria so as to give legal backing for any tribe to peacefully exit the forced union if it feels marginalized in future. According to Enahoro, such provision in our constitution would instill in all Nigeria's future leaders the fear of the consequences of misgovernance. But Azikiwe, speaking on behalf of Igbos, rose against him in the parliament and labelled him an agent of disunity, and enemy of Nigeria. At a later date, Awolowo too made a case for secession clause, but Azikiwe again resisted him and instigated the colonial authorities to threaten him and Enahoro with charges of treasonable felony if they didn't stop proposing secession clause for the future constitution. While Azikiwe did all these, Igbos cheered and urged him on because they felt the future Nigeria was theirs to dominate and lord it over every other tribe

Before independece, *Tafawa Balewa too* had in a public speech *described Nigeria as a British experiment and Nigeria's unity as a British intention which Nigerians themselves don't believe in* But *Azikiwe kicked and demonized him too* _Had Azikiwe co-operated with Enahoro, Awolowo, Ahmadu Bello and Tafawa Balewa about the secession clause, Nigeria perhaps would not have been this misgoverned._

It should be noted that there were many Igbo Members of the Parliament in which Azikiwe fought against Awolowo's secession clause proposal but not a single one of them rose against Azikiwe or condemned him.

Igbos initially never wanted to hear anything like secession in Nigeria because they so much believed, though falsely, that they were the most educated tribe. (The first Nigerian tribe to produce a university graduate is the Binis). As an evidence of Igbo domination agenda hence their initial resistance to the idea of secession; here are some quotes:

_"From all indications, the god of us Igbos have destined us to rule the whole of Africa"..... Zik (1945)._

_"It is getting clearer each day that Igbo domination of Nigeria is just a question of time"... Oscar Onyeamma (1949).

Anascopeterson:
As at 1900, the whole of the present Benue State, Kogi East Senatorial District and some southern parts of Taraba State called Munchi District back then; were all in the Southern Protectorate. Whoever doubts this should consult MacMillan Atlas for secondary schools in Nigeria. With that situation, the South had a higher population than the North hence always had an upper hand in any democratic bargain.

But as at the early fifties when the regions were being created, common sense dictated clearly that these areas should fall in the future Eastern Region. But against common sense, the colonial masters decided to gerrymander them into the Northern Region. While they did that, Azikiwe who was supposed to be in Enugu fighting against it as the leader of the East, was far away in Ibadan struggling with Awolowo to rule the Western Region and also playing the spoiler role against Awolowo's attempts to have Kwara and present Kogi Yorubas carved into the Western Region from the North which was already too large by landmass.

While he abandoned his burning house and was far away in Ibadan struggling against Awolowo in his own (Awolowo's) region, Igbos saw absolutely nothing wrong with that. Rather they applauded him as a nationalist. A nationalist whose house was burning yet busy chasing rats in a far away land.
When opinions became unanimous that Lord Luggard and his government must be forced out of Nigeria and indeed the whole of Africa, it was still the Igbos that frustrated the attempts. Here is how:

In 1948, Anthony Enahoro organized an anti-colonization symposium in Lagos for which Azikiwe and some other Igbos had agreed to deliver the keynote address. But when the D-day came, Azikiwe was nowhere to be found as he deliberately disappeared into thin air for fear of being arrested and dealt with by Lord Luggard. Anthony Enahoro then quickly replaced Azikiwe with another person who did the job improptu but perfectly well as he lambasted and lampooned Lord Luggard and the British Government. However, the British soldiers invaded the symposium venue, arrested the speaker and Enahoro and jailed them for treasonable felony. Ironically, the next day Azikiwe came out of hiding and granted a radio interview in which he accused Enahoro and the other organizers of suffering from youthful exhuberance.

On regaining his freedom few weeks later and being told of Azikiwe's radio interview, Enahoro resigned from his post as Editor of Azikiwe's newspaper - The West African Pilot.

Then he wrote a book titled "Nnamdi Azikiwe: Sinner of Saint". After launching the book, Enahoro left Azikiwe's party - the NCNC and moved over to Awolowo's Action Group.

*The first military coup in Nigeria was carried out by majority of Igbo army officers* _That was the coup that truncated democracy just six years post Independence and led to a succession of coups which put the country on the reverse gear for 33 years._

Through that first coup, those Igbo army officers who accused the politicians and government of the day of monumental corruption, killed the political leaders of the Northern, Western and Midwestern Regions but allowed all Igbo political figures to escape by tipping them off prior to the D-Day. In addition to the killing of political figures, they also killed a total of 27 innocent high ranking military officers from every region except their Eastern Region.

In the end an Igbo man called Aguiyi Ironsi, who was supposed to have been killed alongside other military officers, ended up becoming the new military ruler of Nigeria. Rather than immediately arrest and punish the coup plotters, he kept them in detention where they were treated as heroes. This was actually what sowed the seed for the eventual Biafra War. *On the 23rd of February 1966* (i.e. a month and 8 days after the first coup porpularly but wrongly known as Nzeogwu coup) an Ijaw born Army officer called *Isaac Adaka Boro* who hailed from Kaima town of present Bayelsa State, *declared the secession of the Niger Delta Republic in an attempt to free his Ijaw people* from the monumental marginalization they had been suffering under Igbos in the old Eastern Region.
But Aguiyi Ironsi immediately ordered Colonel Odumegwu Ojukwu to arrest him and hand him over to the military high command under him in Lagos. Ojukwu went all out against Isaac Adaka Boro with federal military might and within 12 fighting days killed 150 Isaac Boro's soldiers, arrested him, stripped him naked, and had him driven to Lagos and handed to Ironsi who immediately charged him to court and within two months secured against him a conviction of treasonable felony for which he was sentenced to death by hanging fixed for December that year by the Supreme Court. His 'crime' was that he declared secession of The Niger Delta Republic from Nigeria. Meanwhile the Igbo coupists who shed innocent blood of other tribes and even sprayed bullets into the bellies of the pregnant wives of Ahmadu Bello and Brigadier Shodeinde were not charged to court or arraigned before any military tribunal.

Isaac Adaka Boro was in detention waiting for December to come for him to join his ancestors. But God so kind, a revenge coup happened on July 29 by Northern soldiers and Ironsi was overthrown and killed. Gowon took over and released Isaac Adaka Boro unconditionally, reinstated him into the Army with his previous rank.

*Then on May 30, 1967, Ojukwu too declared secession of Biafra Republic from Nigeria* and without consulting or apologising to Isaac Boro, *drew a Biafra map which included the very areas that made up Isaac Adaka Boro's earlier declared Niger Delta Republic* for which he fought against him and killed his soldiers. Seeing such level of arrogance in Ojukwu, Isaac Boro asked Gowon to provide arms for him to crush Biafra by fighting on the Nigerian side in vengeance for Ojukwu's frustration of his own secession declaration 15 months earlier.
Isaac Boro, as an Ijaw man conversant with the waterways, led the Nigeria Army through the coastal areas into Igboland to finish off thousands of Ojukwu's soldiers thus leading to the crushing defeat of Biafra. But today, Igbos accuse Ijaws of betraying them in the war. But *from the facts above, who really betrayed the other in all honesty?* _Be the judge._

*Why Gowon Fought Against Ojukwu's Declaration of Biafra:*

After Ironsi and Ojukwu successfully crushed Isaac Boro's Niger Delta Republic declaration, Ironsi immediately proceeded to promulgate the Anti-secession Decree which made the mere mention of secession from Nigeria punishable with death by hanging. Ojukwu openly supported and endorsed the decree despite disapproval of it by the general public. So *when Ojukwu later declared Biafra secession, he was reminded of the Anti-secession Decree* made by him and his brother Ironsi.

*Deadly Truth:*
Igbos frequently reference *Aburi Accord* to create the impression that the rest of Nigerian tribes don't honour agreements. This is a very dishonest narrative from Igbos.

First and foremost, *Aburi Accord was organized by soldiers and unelected civil servants who should not participate in political exercises like making laws due to the civil service anonymity principle.* Secondly, those *civil servants and military men* in attendance *were not elected by their Federal Constituencies* to the Aburi summit. In the philosophy of democracy, the only universally acceptable way of making laws is through duly elected representatives of the people. But in going to Aburi, the peoples' representatives duly elected in the 1965 elections were all sidelined for soldiers to hijack the process. *Where on earth do soldiers make laws for the people?* Rather, the civilian populace makes laws that guide the military. *Aburi Accord therefore had no seal of the people's sovereignty* hence it was an illegality which shouldn't have been allowed to stand.

Thirdly, in 1957, Nigerians from all federal constituencies democratically elected representatives whom they sponsored to London, paid their flight tickets and hotel accommodation for the *Independence Constitutional Conference* Those representatives all resolved and agreed on *Federalism* marked by *regional autonomy and resource control* in the Independence Constitution which they brought back home and everyone accepted it.

In that constitution, *Nigerians all agreed that on no account shall the military take over power* It was also clearly stated in it that amendments to it could be done by only democratically elected representatives.

That constitution was the 1st ever agreement between all Nigerians. On the day of his inauguration as the Army GoC, Aguiyi Ironsi stood before the whole world and with his own mouth swore to protect and defend that sovereign Independence Constitution regardless of the circumstances that may later arise. But just six years after he manufactured an excuse to clinch power against the clear provisions of that constitution we all agreed to, unilaterally began to amend its provisions with his very offensive Decrees and ended up dismantling the *Federalism and Resource Control* therein and ultimately subverted that constitution we all painstakingly sacrificed to draft. *That was the height of irresponsibility and the dishonoring of sacred agreement* That was how Igbos breached the first agreement, all Nigerians, ever all mutually consented to, thus laying the foundation for violation of future agreements.
So, Aburi Accord was only treated exactly the same way Igbos treated the Independence Constitution Agreement.

*Anasco Peterson:* _Obasanjo removed history from the school curriculum hence the reason why many of what we know of the eventualities in Biafra war were altered to suite their narratives._

Most Nigerians demonstrate the major reason Nigeria is called basket of fools. The bolded indicates a person who should not be left alone with a kitchen knife. Most of the positions tabled by this ninny never existed. In addition, south -east was not in vogue during era in discussion. It is unfortunate certain jackasses tend to wear the badge of foolishness as an honor. The army chief of staff was a Yoruba, the head of the Navy was a Yoruba, the Minister of Interior was a Fulani or Kanauri and the IGP was a Efik. The north did not resist anybody at ABU. The runners of the university, the Arabs, decided the VC should an Arab from Egypt. The same thing happened in UNN where an American was the VC.

I have always had reservations about a Biafra that would have the Babelian SS in it, especially the present day Rivers, Bayelsa and Riveran Delta. These areas are a flash point and highly volatile. These areas will forever be a red flag and danger zone to any country because rebel movements will always develop there.
Also, the Warri question is yet to be answered. The Itshekiri, Ijaw and Uhrobo will always be at loggerheads there, and I see no solution to that crises.

If our Anioma brothers from Delta are unanimously interested in join us, that will be great, likewise our Asa brothers and others in Rivers, although Obigbo/Oyigbo areas are already fanatical about Biafra and if it comes down to a referendum, they will most likely vote to join us.

The likely scenario or countries that are going to emerge are
1. Biafran; comprising 5 SE States, Anioma and Asa/Obigbo areas of Delta and Rivers states respectively.
2. Akwa-Cross; comprising Cross River and Akwa Ibom.
3. Niger Delta; comprising Rivers State (minus Asa/Obigbo areas), Bayelsa and probably Delta State(minus Anioma).
4. Bendel; Edo State and maybe the entire present Delta State.
5. Oduduwa; comprising all 6 SW States and maybe Okun/Kogi West. They should forget Illorin for obvious reasons.

These are the most realistic countries that would emerge from Southern Nigeria.

I want Republic of Igbo land which will comprise all places of Igbo land. Igbo land stretches from 5 Southeastern States to Edo, Kogi, Benue, Delta, Rivers, Akwa Ibom, Cross River and Bayelsa State. Igbo land is not negotiable. If peaceful agreement could not be reached, then war is inevitable. By the way, the nation of Igbo land must have buffer zones too.

Most black people, including those nearer his generation, will rightly support Biden regardless citing his longstanding relationship with the black community, his eventual inspired support for civil rights legislation (go read this up) and his service under Obama. His plans to close the wealth gap between white and black Americans, combat inequality in the criminal justice system, economy and housing is much more convincing.

Trump is a champion of tokenism. His policies that may seem favourable to blacks are borne out of political expediency. Discerning minds wont be fooled. He is innately tribal, an unrepentant white supremacist ready to unleash catastrophic racial divisions in a second term

Our preference for Biden is borne not out of CNN coverage, but knowledge that trumps actions presents an ever present danger to US and global stability. The economic gains he proclaims are ephemeral and unsustainable. He is a threat to social justice.

You need to bridge the deficit gap in your ability for critical analysis, to see beyond the tokeness and fakery of the man trump

One thing with liberals is the tendency to drop names and insult people. The bolded is one of the idiotic statements I have ever read on nairaland. It was not long ago that ISIS was committing atrocities, North Korean strongman was shooting missiles, the goons in Lebanon threaten hell, PLO said if Jerusalem is declared capital of Israel the earth will burn, China declared no go area in South China Sea and Iran warned of closing the strait of hormuz. In fact, Iran was given serious money by Obama to keep mute. However Trump said hell to those craps and warned all comers to ready for war if needed. Mr. Trump administration has quietened all comers. Some people in USA even think the best time will come with Trump's second term. The premium for individual insurance fell from the silly Obamacare. The 401k has jumped up considerable more than 8 years ago. Let me tell you, only a fool will listen to the craps about race (black and white) spewed by liberals and CNN. Please tell me what Biden had to offer or run with since his silly and freaking 47years in Washington, DC?

Calcified brain. Who called Romney and McCain Racists? McCain’s wife even supports Biden. Trump abused McCain and dishonored his service and death.
Average Nigerian loves Trump, because we are a nation of haters. We hate of because religion, tribe, state, economic status, education. Folks like u hate GMB while love Trump. What Trump is to US.. GMB is to Naija

If John McCain's father and grandfather were not admirals, John McCain would not have been naval officer. Most people get twisted when people they oppose politically say the truth.

This is a lesson for some fools that call Nigeria a zoo. Many of them are supporting these ladies but they cannot take the good cue from it. She said go back to your country if you dont like america. Many a time we have told those that hate Nigeria to leave Nigeria and go back to their own landlocked region but will they listen to this lady to follow the the advice? What a shame

My grandfather told me that a child who calls his\her mother ugly invariably called his\her father stupid. You grandfather, father, brother, sister, uncle or aunt might have fought in silly war to bring the so-called landlocked region back into the fold of zoo called Nigeria. The folks who called the shithole known as Nigeria a zoo are rightfully correct because they have fought a bitter war to disassociate with the zoo.

I'm talking practicalities now.
Restate this fact in light of your superior understanding :
"Sickle call disease is more prevalent in black populations than in white populations"

I'll wait, although I suspect I'll be waiting a long time grin


Passion, you are as funny as hell with the waiting plank. If you do not have the average intellect to understand black or white as in the case of race does not have biological attribute therefore no value in science, I cannot continue the silly debate. The science I know stated the Sickle call disease is prevalent in Sub-Sahara African region as Leukemia is prevalent in Northern European region. Only a fraudulent scientist will label a chromosomal result test as black or white.

If you wanna have a rational discussion, I'm more than happy to indulge you.
That said, why have you abandoned the disease I picked for you to talk about lymphoma instead. Lol.
Anyways, black does not equal African. The Siddis of India, the Orang Aslis of Malaysia and Philippines, the entire West Indians etc etc are not Africans . Because you share a black skin with someone does not make them African. There are many many Indians who are as dark skinned as some East Africans. Does that make them Africans?
The Europeans who migrated to America are Americans today, not Europeans. But the Africans who migrated to America remain Africans in your warped mind. You need to wrap your head around these facts first


Based on the post above, who do you call black? Race in the instance of Black and White is a social construct. In fact, I call it idiotic social construct because it does not have biological value. There are Africans who could pass as the silly White yet are Africans not black. Human race includes Indians, Malaysians, Chinese, Japanese, Filipinos and Koreans which are denoted as Asians including people from Middle east. You are the one making the silly denotation. Every person who migrated to America is American not what you called Black and White in your figment of imagination. I have maintained either you called them European-Americans or African-Americans but black or white. I do not get plank of your silly argument. Do you prefer Black and White or African-American or European-American? Before you goof off with identification shenanigan, there are two continent of America.

Oga, you condemn the term ‘black’ as reference to a Race but provide no [b]alternative, [/b]other than I should ‘hit the books’? Reading the bolded, I can tell you have entered a spectrum, and landed somewhere between confused and lost

Please there is no alternative to human as the only race on earth. Humans are identified by the region of their originality or origin. People from Africa are referred as Africans not Black. The same goes to people who originated from Europe who are referred as Europeans not White. People from Asia are referred as Asians not Black\White\Yellow. The people from Americas are Americans not White\Black\Yellow\Fade Yellow.

All this verbal diarrhoea and yet you can't accomplish the simple task set for you. You're a clown!

I guess it takes one clown to recognize another. Anyway, my African brothers and sisters seemed to sheepishly ride with names given to them by Europeans. It is funny you brought the Sickle call disease to the discussion. Thank goodness Chromosomal tests are not carried out under the auspices of Black or White. Lymphoma disease is not common among Africans.

Does it look like the world is run on selflessness or selfishness, the problem of Africans is over estimating their own strength, are you more powerful than Israel did not take international influence to grant Jerusalem as the capital, are you more powerful than China, don't you see how UK is messing with their life with HingKong, are you more powerful than Korea, did it not international impact to break them in two, the worst you can do as an insider is to engulf yourself in war, which the side that will win will depend a lot on international support, you think statehood is childs play and next time when you wish to use your wipe out rhetoric, do leave my beloved Igboland out of it or your stupid head will be the first to be ground and mixed in explosive but we are never being wiped out get it

From the above crap, I do not think people in your class need freedom. It is said that freedom does not come cheaply. It takes blood and gut to achieve freedom.

Trump loves blacks? Trump promoted Alsharpton? I think you need to be schooled. Trump will promote satan if it serves his selfish interest. He privately abhors black people. Spot a black person in his White House! They don’t come more racist than Trump. Someone on this forum is comparing vile, racist trump with a man running on the same ticket with a powerful, intelligent black woman?

Nigerians, pls get sense!

You are one of the reason Africa was colonized. What have you done for the interest of other people instead of yours? You must be real acquaintance of Trump to know what he does in private. It is very idiotic to refer humans as "Blacks".

"Intelligent American ladies" my foot. That they're supporting a confirmed buffoon and racist clearly shows they're clearly not the brightest bunch and calls to question the wisdom of some so called African Americans.

Only in your world that a buffoon can save 100 dollars. Racism exists in the psychic of those people who are intellectually inspired.

Did you not watch the video at all? Although I agree anyone is free to have an opinion about trump even if their own country is worse what triggered them is that there was nothing to bring up the discussion of trump....why didn't the guy attack buhari instead? Why Trump? Is buhari not even a more suitable candidate to be hated upon? He could have said oh this buhari sef or whatever but nope he decided to attack Trump....the way I see it I'm sure he was trying to bring up a topic of discussion and his hatred for Trump was his play card..little did he know that they would not agree with him...the guy's situation even doesn't make his matter better cos he is not even in his own country and probably fled cos of how bad his president/leaders are, yet he's looking at the president of another country to bash, which again is ok(everyone has opinions) but to them as Americans who took offense in it I don't see anything wrong in them getting angry/disagreeing

This is one stupidity you and I cannot wash away from most Africans especially Nigerians. Nigerians will denigrate any president who is working hard to make his/her country great. Is it not plain idiocy for the dumbass Nigerian to discourse USA instead of Nigeria? The fool who passed as Nigerian really got blasted out of Switzerland by the African-American lady.
