texazzpete:Boycotting their beef won't stop them from grazing in southern lands. In fact, they'll only have more cows to care for... meaning more chances for conflict. However, I do agree that we are cowards and are greedy; otherwise, this won't be an issue in the first place. |
texazzpete:Lol. Your statement implies Fulani are the only ones capable of rearing cows. This inefficiently run business of theirs wouldn't survive modern day competition. Nothing stops southern state governments to go into pig, cow, poultry etc farming on a large scale. The only reason these fuckers are in business is because southerners are foolish people who would rather fight each other than come together and work towards a sustainable knowledge based society. |
I don't understand why the entire Miyetti Allah group hasn't faced firing squad by now. A group that threatened an entire State. And most people here are actually supporting them for reconciliation after killing 800+ people in one location. Foolish people. Why couldn't the fulani fuckers press charges when they felt wronged or cheated? Normal people don't go on a rampage and kill thousands of women and children. The fulani herdsmen, Miyetti Allah and any of their sympathizers are all fucking bastards! |
Samcoflex75:Faulty logic. If he can do what he likes, how then can he be described as being good? By what standards is his "goodness" defined if there isn't a standard for your Almighty? Don't bother replying. It's only meant to make you think critically. I'm not interested in religious arguments. |
It's obvious that these guys are fucking fraudsters, yet the government does nothing about them. They're a goddamn nuisance to the well-being of the society! |
Why aren't these pastors in prison yet ? |
Huge traffic, pollution, poor security, expensive housing, etc. I honestly don't understand why Lagos is on anyone's list. Abeokuta is a far better place to live in than Lagos. Ibadan Enugu and Abuja tops my list. Kaduna should be there but they've got a bigoted governor. Heard Jos and Calabar are also nice places, would like to visit. |
I can see that a majority of people no longer believe these pastor's "prophecies" and most now realize that lots of pastors are con men. So why are churches still filled up? It's a genuine question. |
Lol. I'm an atheist but this post by Seun is embarrassing. Also, why the hell is Mark's religion a big issue here on nairaland?? |
Unity19:320, 4As and no admission, and some fucker up north will probably enter with less than half her score. This is the problem with the goddamn nation. You shouldn't have to talk with anyone. Everything should be based on merit and there shouldn't be another list for the so-called "Educationally Less Developed States". After billions of Naira over the years, those northern elite bastards refuse to develop the level of education in their respective states. Their children only require a measly score to get in and fast forward 15-20 years, they occupy all the important positions in the country while the southern kid that got good grades will still be searching for a job. Southerners are big f00ls! They live in a society where their children have to put in twice as much effort to compete with a northerner that knows fvck all! |
komekn:Correction: my calculator says it's 99.97% of the country. |
ianSweet:You're saying horseshit. No one cares that Hausa is a popular language. None of our local languages have a large and complex vocabulary because we never developed whatever scientific inclinations we might have. It's simply the truth that Hausa (or Igbo or Yoruba) CANNOT be used to teach science in an effective manner. Simple proof: state Boyle's law in Hausa language. Or try to label parts of a microorganism in Hausa. And that's just basic stuff. Neither are there journals or encyclopedias nor is there a large source of knowledge translated into Hausa. This means that those who only understand Hausa aren't privy to knowledge that every other person has access to. This is EXACTLY why there's a lot of suffering in Africa. Illiteracy and a lack of reading+exploring culture. If the people were knowledgeable, they won't standby and watch the elite rape their future and that of their unborn generation. Everything isn't about politics and tribalism. We aren't going to develop as a nation if we intend on raising potential liabilities by hiding a great wealth of knowledge from them just because of a stupid choice of language of instruction. |
Most of the comments show that there's no hope for the nation. Instead of talking about ways all Nigerian children can have equal access to quality education, the foolish "future leaders" have managed to turn it into a tribal issue. I can't believe some idiöts think one must learn Hausa to teach their children. Hausa, like any other primitive local language, simply doesn't have the vocabulary for STEM education. |
EyeHateGod:Best response so far! It's funny but also points out a logical flaw in the argument of those worshipping a supposed omni-this-and-that god. |
BiggyB242:Hehehehe. Please, I'm "thying" to know, what in Bleep's name is this? ![]() |
Diiverexii:Hehehehehehe! Pastors, politicians, car salesmen etc. This is what they have in common. |
@ Omohayek I disagree with the first three reasons. Those are operational challenges and has nothing to do with electricity generation. Corruption is the singular reason why we have little increase in total electricity generation after tens of billions of dollars invested over the years. It's not explicitly the fault of the people. |
SIRTee15:Don't mind the bloody idiots. Most of these fucking conspiracy nutjobs neither have a degree in astronomy or physics nor have they ever sat down to read proper physics texts or peer reviewed papers. Their source of info is youtube, shit blogs, and some 'popular science' novels spreading false nonsense. They think hundreds of scientists and engineers with billions of dollars came together to stage an expensive parlor trick. They think Soviet cosmologists (who were just as good as their USA counterparts) wouldn't have noticed the "hoax" but some fucking idiots with no credentials spotted the evidence for a hoax. E ti ya weyrey! |
solacong:Zoharariel, kindly send Solacong monthly updates of your well manicured hands in the process of typing some random shit. |
mmsen:1. Like a doctor's diagnosis (which is a good analogy IMO), materialism is just one symptom that points to several possible causes. Everything has to be considered to reach a conclusion. 2. A response to your other questions: Me sef no know o! You'll see people saying that they'll kick out the incompetent fuckers out in 2019. Why wait till 2019? Why don't we demand that the morrafuckers resign now? But honestly, I think these so-called few intelligent Africans are too few. I don't think we have enough to make a strong party. Also, they can't do it on their own, they need the support of the people. But unfortunately, the people are uneducated. They'll vote for an idiot for N2,500. I think a certain threshold of enlightenment and awareness is required to spark a revolution of any kind - cultural or political. We have no chance of real change until the masses understand the basics of logic, political ideologies, knowing their rights and civic duties, realizing that what we call Nigerian politics isn't politics etc. Also, I think the cowardice and reluctance is tied to the basic everyday survival I talked about. Respecting the elderly and powerful, carrying out their orders without questions, suppressing your individualism etc is a key part of our culture. It is required to be successful in our current society. It's very hard to break free from that line of reasoning. |
oduastates:No one could have said it better. Not a single fucking day goes by without a "graphic pics" post on nairaland. Bodies torn, limbs mangled, adults, children, babies. Yet, these hapless idiots won't stop to ask themselves deep questions like: "why did this happen?", "what can we do to prevent this?", and "why do we keep living and dying like common animals in some jungle?" They'll only make stupid, unnecessary religious/spiritual remarks like: God knows best, God will judge, karma, thunder is doing press-up etc or they make it political, or tribal. My hypothesis is that the society, her politics, her poor governance and every other thing that follows are like this because our society is built on two ideals: money and basic everyday survival. Our mindset is locked to some sort of "I must survive and make it quick" mode of thought and existence. It's the reason why we have rich politicians, thieves, pastors etc as role models. It explains why we have a soft spot for the promises of religion and the supernatural. It explains why we are a materialistic society. It's the reason why the common man isn't curious about his environment, why we don't stop to think about the plants and animals and art and poetry to see beauty in the universe, why we don't invest time to understand the world around us, why we aren't scientific, why we don't explore, why we don't build, invent or create. We want it quick, so we hustle, make some cash and import products we have no idea how to make! We Africans will keep living short brutish lives until good education awakens us to the reality of our pitiful existence and forces us to re-build our society from scratch by creating new ideals (like dignity in hard work, be curious and explore the world around you, always ask questions etc) that the people in a healthy society should aspire to attain. People in advanced countries aren't intrinsically better than us. It's just our ideals and way of thinking that's holding us down! |
toprealman:Lol. Don't get upset with me. Direct your anger at the politicians and thieves that use hundreds of millions to clear grass, drill borehole, maintain websites, etc. Direct your anger at fraudulent Professors who don't know shit or have any equipment but manage to miraculously publish tens of experimental papers every year. Knowledge and skill without the equipment is useless in this case, your eyes can't identify micron and sub-micron sized stuff. Sure, you can build a simple UV-Vis or even Raman (if you've got the cash and MORE equipment to build with) but it won't be calibrated and accurate enough for studies related to something as important as the health of people. You have to BUY the equipment. But this is PH. Those almighty oil companies (or that petroleum Uni) might have some useful equipment in their QA department. Anyways, get your kids and yourself nose masks with PM 2.5 grade filters and you might need to change the filters quite often considering that everyone's saying there's lots of that shit in the air. I ain't part of you o! I'm porting to Kenya or Ghana. |
As expected from a nation without good education and research institutes, everyone is just guessing and talking crap. Basic mass spectrometry and spectrophotometric techniques will tell you what it is as well as the average particle size. But, of course, we've got no equipment. Hopefully, it won't be heavy metals PM 2.5. I don't even think there's any agency in Naija that measures air quality levels across our cities. We just dey breathe in and breath out ![]() Anyways, since we lack the knowledge and skill, keep praying for your ever reliant magical god to help the nation (like he always does. Lol) and enjoy your polluted environment with shitty AQI. It's the kids I pity. |
fkj950ax:Lol. So of what advantage is the housing scheme if we have a society with most families crammed into 1 bedroom houses? I never said it was a bad deal. My analysis only infers that such a housing scheme needs to be coupled with creation of good job opportunity for the masses. The honest truth is that, no matter the good intentions of such schemes, we will never have a comfortable society until we create true value by job creation across all sectors of industry. The citizens will always be too poor to afford the simple things of life. |
fkj950ax:Actually, the typical price that will be in high demand will be closer to N25 mil than N1.5 mil. You want a home which involves entering gbese spread over 10 years. No right thinking person wants a 1 room apartment to raise a family in some shitty location that you'll be tied to for 10 years. The right thinking person will go for a 3 bedroom apartment in a nice location since (s)he might raise a family there for up to or more than 10 years. However, it's a good deal that will involve monthly payments up to The only problem is that we live in a society with no jobs or poor job security. Correct me if I'm wrong. |
buchilino:Lol. Nigeria will not burn. As always, we'll lament on social media, adapt and forget about it. Our heavily built saviour, Mr. Thunder, will stick to his everlasting press-ups. |
The Jigawa guy has the most interesting facial structure. He's should be in top 3. His hairstyle is the only major fuckup. |
Goddamn!! We've got fools for leaders. A fifth of that budget is enough to raise the standard of education across the country very close to the standard in developed nations. $20-50 mil alone will build you a standard materials characterization institute along with clean rooms and related labs. Fucking useless leaders. |
abuayman:Such is life What a fucking bastard!! |
Gerrard59:It's shocking that the only sensible post in this thread has just 2 likes. |
I've got no problem with mass marriages even though it's horseshit. But I'm quite sure that half of these people don't have enough to raise a child but they'll probably have 3 babies each within 5 years and start complaining about poverty and hunger. Africans be marrying and multiplying like viruses but add very little to the advancement of the human species. I only hope their pastors adviced them against babies till they've saved enough money. |
DatsAll1mSayin:I honestly do not understand why some of you are shocked. The Nigerian society has deteriorated to the extent that beheadings, crushed, mangled and heavily burnt bodies -from babies to adults - are a DAILY highlight on her social media. Not a fucking day goes by!! I'm sure ISIS websites can't match Naija social media. So, why the shock and anger? Because it makes no difference whom the source is. Our minds will still become, and are already, numb to blood and gore. |
