SoNature:
I'm Igbo and I agree with your post, but not entirely. You can call the Hausas anything but not LAZY.

Hausa/Fulani people are extremely hard-working

You deserve a bottle of cold origin for this.

whitebeard:
OK now my simple question now is:why is it that the Igbo's are now blaming the whole yoruba tribe..!!

Lol
They say we are responsible. For bringing buhari to power.

They say we played the silent game during the biafra war.

They say we are cowards.

They say we are just puppets to the north ....

I think they think we are the cause of the problems betiding them

Odingo1:
I wonder why it is so hard in Nigeria to even make it 6 years single tenure,the six geopolitical zone will get it turn,if it happen that president die in power one of the governor in his region will complete the remaining years while the next region get their turn.
Some region just want to rule Nigeria as they like and some people are looking for who is the greedy one,while we all know the greedy ones.

Lol!!!!
You say whah
If a president dies a governor from his regionshould take over?
You must be kidding me.!!!

6 years bawo
Most countries have a 4 year a term system and few have 5 years a term.

fakeprophet:
very true, I don't, and will never blame Igbo agitating for Biafra...
this is because this people have been marginalised, stigmatized, sidelined for decades, Hausa, the tapeworms are the real reason why this funkiest amalgamation is being preserved, very lazy, lousy, dirty kind of people...

that middle belt guy was here

Smiles...
What a hasty generalisation!!!!
Did you say they are lazy
It's very funny how these same lazy people account for over 98% of local food crops eaten. In Nigeria today.

It's funny how more than 90% of the bureau de changers you find in Nigeria today are from these bunch of lazy people.


Brother,Northerners might be a lot of things but certainly not lazy!

Igboesika:
See how afonjas are disgracing themselves thinking they are disgracing Nigerians.

If you cannot afford the house rent... just. leave !!!.
Very lazy and lousy set of human beings.

Only God knows how your lot think.
Today it is ipob, tomorrow it is afonja, the day after it is arewa.
Why feel your heart with so much hatred against a certain people?
Are you rebuking the duo in the video or the entire yoruba race

And to call yorubas lazy!
Wawu!!!
Are you learned at all or you did that for The. Likes??
Grow up please an argue reasonably.
By the way, nogerians aren't lazy people. Whether igbo, hausa, nukpe.... we aren't lazy people.

afroniger:
Nonsense. How can you talk of having a 'perfect' life in an imperfect world? Even the Bible you people are citing sef is an imperfect, disjointed, inconsistent, confusing, compendium of texts. Lubbish.

One bottle of origin for you!!!
They claim the truth will set them free, but the moment you ttell them the truth about christianity, they say you're of the devil!

Many Christians don't have a single idea about the history of Christianity and how the bible came to place.

Emerituz:
are you saying billions of people are too much for God to put in hell?

SMH

So all Christians, jews, Buddhists, and people who belong to every other religion. Apart from islam are doomed for hell?

This is the same questions I ask christians.

deolsisback:
and you have not finished spending the money? Maybe that is what is stalling your progress in life. Better repent

Youmay be surprised this. Same person you're quoting might be capable of employing you.
Anyways, lemme assume your comment wwas just for the jokes.

Peace of the Lord be with you.

pacino26:
Nigerian gay activist, Bisi Alimi

I think we Nigerians are the ones to blame here. People like bobrisky and this dude don't deserve the attention they get on SM.

That being said, the bolded alone should tell you he's a moral misfit and as such doesn't understand what a family is or how the African family work. I can't take him serious whether speaking in favor of family values or against.

At the bolded: do You know with this you've totally failed a logical argument?

First, as much as you want to judge, his sexuality is absolutely none of your business.
Who are you to determine who is morally right and not to give a piece advice?

Didn't Christ say he who is without sin should cast the first stone?

At times I laugh at many so-called Christians.
It seems you forget what the holy bible says about sin.

Whether you lie, Steal, call your neighbour a fool, make unnecessary jokes, fornicate, are gay, you all are doomed for hell!

Yes! That's what the holy bible says.

So, except you're without any of this sin, please you're in no place to determine who is morally fit and not to give an advice.

And to the article, Alimi might have sounded harsh in. Conveying his message, put if you rea the article and took time to comprehend, you'll realise he's totally correct!

I an several people have taken time to summarise his CENTRAL MESSAGE.

Peace!

TonyeBarcanista:
APDA is different... I've seen their manifesto and constitution

Smiles.
Well, we all know how things are run in this country!
APC promised us change... and we'll, change it is we're getting.

Except it isn't the same old recycled leaders, they're all same!!!

You said you seen their constitution??
Does it state the death penalty for stealing public funds?
Answer is NO!
So welcome brother, to another set of rebranded thieves!!!

donbrowser:
Na true, you dey wash plates for Abiara house abi? Yahoo ko Gmail ni

You dey mind all these aláròká
Nah to dey monitor people upandan dem sabi.
Be like nah dem buy her the lappy wey she take dey yahoo yahoo.

TonyeBarcanista:
APC and Buhari should ensure that their handover note is ready by December 2017, because a strong coalition, inspired by sound ideology and principles, made up of patriots and driven by patriots across the length and breath of Nigeria and beyond is on its way to chase out those fraudsters that deceived our people in 2015 at all level. Nobody will be spared.


God Bless this country

MODIFIED
contrary to the vanguard report, APDA is not an alternative for Markafi led PDP but instead it is a platform that seeks to install better leaders at all levels in Nigeria with the drivers cutting across various party after seeing that their present party is fraudulent and hopeless.

Could you please. Throw this in the trash

It's all a cycle!
Same old pot bellied thieves changing parties to loot our treasury dry!!!
APC, PDP, APDA.... They are all the same!
So, spare me the sermon bro!

lotasha:
May God help us all. As much as I love nd admire dis man I never expected is female children not to practice the doctrine of CAC. They all wearing earrings, with different forms of makeup.

Sister,could you please hollup!
God called the father only....
It was never a conference call...
So leave the kids out of it.

xynerise:
I am not clear. What about parents that are old and retired?

I think that's his point.
Parents after retiring should have a back up plan.
Get a small business or something to invest in. Humans can be very unreliable you know. And those kids you see as your retirement plan could turn their backs against you.
Not to talk of These days where it's common to label old parents witches and wizards.

xynerise:
Only a prodigal and cursed child will have this mentality.

So if your parents are suffering and you are financially buoyant, you will tell them this?

Did you read the write up at all?
If you did,then you didn't take time to assimilate what he said

In summary this Is what he said

"Parents should not totally rely on their kids to take care of them in their old age. They should have a back up plan."
"Whereas it is good to cater for your parents, do not let them get your mumu Button"


I hope you're clear now.

Lol...
Awon werey.
Crase men full ground sha...

I hope this is in the right section.

Let Us Put a Stop to Ethnic Bigotry.

Of late, I have come to notice the trend in which ethnic bigotry as gradually eaten deep into us, here on nairaland. At times, I begin to wonder if the way people hate online is the way they hate in real life.

While it is totally fine to air our opinions, it is very important that we try our best possible to do that without insulting others.

Sentiments (tribal sentiments inclusive) are a thing which cannot be separated from us humans. That notwithstanding, could be shown without public show of hate.

It is funny how we let the decisions of the elite class dictate how we treat our fellow Nigerians.
We seem to forget that "these elite class- the politicians and leaders -whose actions directly and indirectly, are the cause of our woes, know no tribe. We who are at the receiving end eventually play to their tunes and transfer that aggression on our fellow citizens. When we actually should hold them accountable.

A situation in which every single serious news posted for the purpose of information is ridiculed by carelessly tribalism isn't good enough.

It's good to joke, but a thing which started out as a joke has blown out of proportion.

We may not know this but, whether we think we are just joking around with these hateful tribal comments we make on nairaland, the outside world watches. They certainly do not understand our humor -they do not know when we joke and when we are serious- and will see us as a country full of hate among its citizens.

Hate would lead us nowhere. It will rather do more damage than has been done.

Let us say NO to hating on people because of their tribes.
It's high time we started holding individuals accountable for their actions, not their tribesmen.

Let us rise above hate.
God bless Nigeria.
Gracias.

TheLordIsGr8:
where the money?
I never see alert ooo.

Lol
Sent it via post office, so it's either you get it in 3 months time, or you get an empty parcel. Those guys could make use of the money and send an empty envelope

TheLordIsGr8:
It pains me. But I agree on that.

As in ehn....

TheLordIsGr8:
Spot on



That is the unfortunate situation Nigeria finds itself. More "laws" won't fix anything.




Checked by whom?
To whom would you entrust this mother of all sensitive task?
By what criteria would you select such a "de-tribalised" individual or machine?

Who gets to decide what constitutes "hate speech"?
Politicians? They're the most untrusted people on earth.
Religious leaders? hmmmm
Nairaland mods? tell me something. Have you ever been asked to swear to believe in allah to comment on certain threads?


You don't want to open that pandora's box because hate really resides in the heart, which you cannot see. Someone might make a very innocent comment which can be easily interpreted as hate speech, even though they may have no hate in their heart.

Take what happened at the grammys and oscars of recent as examples. Everything is being branded "hate" and "racist"



Better to let it play out on its own.
You can only make laws in an attempt to stop people from showing their hating, but you cannot stop them from hating. I am of the opinion to let it play out. So the day anyone decides to change it would be of their own volition.

I know this sounds like a defeatist argument but I cannot trust anyone to protect me against hate speech. Neither will you. That which you thinks protects you soon turns around and stings you in the ass while you're staring at the other.

Well said right there!

I really buy you views. Do not restrain anyone. Let each person exhibit their true self.

I was just calling for a paradigm shift in the way we as individuals reason.
Let each person check himself and restrain himself.


Having to swear to believe in the oneness of Allah before commenting on islamic threads really got me!
It's totally uncalled for, and Seun shouldn't allow such.
Anyway, it's his business. He's allowed to run it whichever way he seems fit

fuckerstard:
It works for me most times

All right.
I guess I just have to keep trying.

mansakhalifa:
The comments on this forum are giving me a serious brain ache. How many more of us wasted our time within the four walls of a classroom? Every bloody issue has been tribalized. Bullcrap!

Brother,its really appalling.
It's funny how something that started as a trivial joke as resulted in a full blown epidemic!
At times I wonder if these people posting these hate comments are like this in real life.

fuckerstard:
E don get out of hand since day one, MODs cannot delete all so if you feel you don't like it just report the shii

Yeah.
Tried that severally. Most times, the "report" just loads. And gives an error mesage.

When he was enjoying the "uhn ahn, uhn ahn" he didn't know abi
Yesterday uhn ahn has turn to full blown children and he's counting his Woes...
Baba swerve make I see road... rubber nefa reach 1 dollar

ayoolanr:
It must be a dirty Osu, flat-headed dwarf....i can bet on my life!!! They are international beggars, drug dealers and developers all at the same time!!!

This hate won't take us anywhere.
Peace is the way. Hating on people of other tribe isn't best.
While I think all these tribal posts are acts of comedy, I think it should Be checked, as it seems to be really getting out of hand.

Mynd666:
Yoro.ba moozlem, I hope they didn't use IPOB to swear for you? Don't die of frustration, you hear?

Even a mod (you're. A mod aren't you?) has joined in this stoopid racial bigotry exhibited on nairaland.
When this all started,i thought it was all just for laughs,but It all seems to be escalating- people take it very Seriously now.

To the topic:
I really wouldn't blame the young man. The Country. Is hard and he, at least, hasn't resorted to crime.
I find it funny all the same.

Poorboy:
Afonjas una like talk pass fight may we hear word abeg

The wise know that "violence" should be the "last" resort when dialogue as failed.
It is a good thing to be slow to violence.

illuminated93:
Useless afonja man. The hypocrite is now talking cos he has been hit by the same evil that has sent babies,mothers and fathers to their early graves. What an afonja!

Young man, the fact that youre armed with a phone and internet shouldn't take away respect and common sense from you.
Respect the grey hair and his person.
That man is someone who with the likes of Chinua Achebe have always spoken against the government.
The man is really old and is doing his best.
And if at all you have no regard for the man, have regard for The the grey hair.

otunbadan:
Do you know how much energy and resources you have to pump in to see 200k, n mind you if u go 200k in profit you spent about 1.2m and Alot of energy n knowledge, ita not that straight forward...we cannot all be self employed so make everybody find their lane n stay in it

Well said! Find where you're best and stay right there. Everyone can't be a "Dangote"
