Chigold101:
did you say far away South Africa? We have 800000 Nigerians in SA who are under threat. Who‘s business are been attcked & their lives in danger & you tlking about FAR AWAY. It is because you neither have a friend nor a relation in SA thats why you wrote that.

Come to think of it: what is 6000 compared to 800000? Even the 500000 he mentioned is still not upto 800000.

I think it is time Nigerian government start to nationalize all SA business in Nigeria.

Wale Goodluck is talking as if this is not where MTN makes most of her profits. It is the Nigerian market that empowers & finances other countries for MTN.
They should not threaten us with job lose. It is life before jobs. If we lose jobs they lose facilities. Other companies will buy the facilities & still employ Nigerians. So he should forget that story.
If you escalate tensions.

Nigerians in SA stand to suffer even more so what is your point.

Sweetguy25:
He who has ears. Irate Nigerians that are calling for the closure of MTN should understand the consequences. MTN is a law abiding company doing in business in Nigeria, the events occurring in their originating country shouldn't be used as an excuse to promote further divisions between the countries. They're a major stakeholder in the Nigerian economy and we should give them the respect they deserve. We should boycott Shell and other IOCs that degrade our environments with their business operations. Besides, its hypocrisy that a country like ours with a rich history of human rights abuses would seek revenge over acts human rights abuses in another country.
You have said the unpopular truth.

Don't be ignorant.

Shoprite franchises in Nigerians are mostly PPPs and Nigerians stand to lose more.

Together with the thousands of jobs they provide?

I think everything should be done gradually.

Some diplomatic arm wringing first.

Before economic sanctions.

Cause we also will lose from the latter.

Clueless APC kitchen economics.

No wonder they are unable to pay salaries in their states.

Instead of focusing on key sectors that will generate revenue they are here trying to defend the most bogus welfare scheme ever.

Interestingly this was found to be how "Ebola" symptoms where created in Liberia .

Paid agents of America were found to be pouring Formaldehyde powder into wells.

Stay calm and look after yourselves and each other.
I do not share your conspiracy theories.

I was only proferring a possible scientific explanation.
Health › Re: Residents Flee As Death From Strange Disease In Ondo Rises by eaglechild: 10:21pm On Apr 17, 2015
Could be some sort of chemical poisoning of the water supply.

The very short interval (hours) between onset of symptoms and death makes it less likely to be infective.
But more investigation is needed.
Politics › Re: If Buhari Wins And Boko Haram Ceases, What Will Be Your Conclusion? by eaglechild(op): 7:11am On Apr 17, 2015
AgentOfAllah:
To demonstrate how your bigotry compels you to draw specious conclusions from evidence built on circumstantialities, we could ask this question in a different way:

What would be your conclusion if, after several years, Boko-Haram is routed with remarkable success only 1 week before the initial scheduled date for elections by an incumbent who is, nay, was seeking re-election?

Although, I wish to know your answer to my question, it is merely an academic exercise of interest to me. The answer of majority of Nigerians, particularly those from the most affected states was heard loud and clear on March 28th. They saw through the hypocrisy!

You know what GEJ said when he was asked why he had to wait one week before the elections, even forcing its postponement by 6 weeks? He said ordering weapons is not like buying packs of cigarettes. It took him one whole presidential term to realise that. Even worse, the questions that were raised by that statement. What happened to the billions of dollars (a third of our national budget if I remember correctly) that were budgeted for security all those years?

Feel free to dwell in your sanctimonious pontifications, you'll only end up hurting yourself, not the truth. It's this attitude of blaming the other instead of taking responsibility that nailed the coffin on GEJs ambition.
lol.

Nigerians saw through hypocrisy indeed.


Please everyone knows GEJ lost because the north felt it was their turn to rule.

It is a democracy so no biggie.

However, don't go preaching that change bullcrap.
It is a big lie.

If you're hoping for bombings, invite them to your backyard.

And when did Boko haram stopped harming innocent people?

April 6

On the contrary, I am happy the bombings have been called off.

There is no longer need for them since the general has been delivered.

1. That since GEJ and his clowns are no longer in power, they do not have the resources to continue sponsoring boko haram.

2. Buhari's strategic tactics and his quick-to-action guidance, compared to weak GEJ, stopped boko haram.
Lol

Buhari is yet to be sworn in yet no more bombs.
Politics › Re: If Buhari Wins And Boko Haram Ceases, What Will Be Your Conclusion? by eaglechild(op): 3:30am On Apr 17, 2015
Just stumbled across this and I am shocked but happy at how quiet Boko Haram has been lately.

Looks like they finally got what they wanted.

All I know is that it is for the better good of the innocent citizens who suffered.

That policeman was obviously not laughing.

We just like to propagate hate unnecessarily.

Xenophobia is very bad but we only worsen the situation by posting unconfirmed reports.

Politics › Re: Jonathan Urges World Leaders To Support Buhari’s Government by eaglechild:
Olamitisoji:
He had the interest of this nation at heart only that the opposition was just too strong due to the fact that he signed the FOI bill that made the opposition have issues to levy on him, Jonathan's administration is not the worst, if our past president had sogned the bill we will know. The opposition too now used the bad information they get to campaign against him. Let's see if Buhari will sign that bill.
Very true.

Jonathan's dispensation is the closest we have had to freedom of information and that meant access to what had always been kept in the dark.

I hope Buhari will continue with this.

His regime is known to be the most repressive and secretive.

He should also caution APC to learn how to lose gracefully, only that you cannot give what you do not have.
