We are truly practicing democracy in Nigeria. The opposition should be glad about that

Shut up your mouth......were you glad when you were in opposition?

GEJ would have done the same to all of you and nobody would have occupied Ojota.

U dey whine us ni.......I don't blame u. The elite will continue taking us for a ride as long as we refuse to see beyond our nose.

A very clueless man, why bring up late President Buhari’s name in 2025?

Now he is pleading, I didn’t mean it like that, let him go & explain what he meant to the Pdp abokis that are supporting him.

What concerns me, no be today I know say that man dey clueless.

What are you on about.....read the Garuba Shehu article. Should Buhari's name not be mentioned again? Even after messing up the country. Day never even break. Una go defend tire.

You mean the army supplied them with ammunition..... ordinary bandits....okay na.

I trust a Nigerian to say something like this.. decades of inept leadership has made you anti-black

Remember Hilbrow before and after...even Boksburg, Benoni, Germiston, Springs, etc the signs are all over. I have been to five African countries, it isn't about just Nigeria. Go to Mozambique, Eswatini or even Botswana. Then go to Zimbabwe.

IronGalaxy:
hahaha though as much.. With your beloved whites, South Africa is still not "heaven,"far from it, so what's your point? That it takes white people to get to South Africa's level?

New infrastructure in South Africa is still being built, new smart cities, others planned, high-speed trains, hospitals, universities, all under different leadership, so your point doesn't fly..

When you Nigerians talk about Black South Africans, you speak as if we're free loaders, people who just fell from as sky into a country built by others, while the opposite is true, hence i keep butressing the point that it was our sweat that built that country, and it continues to this day

Your own point won't fly with an objective scrutiny. We already know how all black countries look..... let's not push this...blacks need "deliverance".

What does Reno call what's happening in Benue and Plateau states? Has the government responded decisively?

IronGalaxy:
But that wasn't the crux of the discussion, was it? What significance does being a gardener have as opposed to what we're talking about, and that's the main premise that Black labour built modern South Africa?

There's no questioning that black South African sweat and blood built SA. However, without the whites SA won't be the "heaven" it is today..... building isn't all about brawn. The planning borders on ingenuity. That's my point....

IronGalaxy:
What's "not really"? Black labour was extensively employed in building South Africa. From the mining, industry and infrastructure, all come from the blood and sweat of the black man, which continues to this day. I'm not talking about women here

My "not really" is because you made it seem like the only work they came in to do was only in construction and mining.....they were also emplyed as security, gardners, drivers, etc.

IronGalaxy:
To enter the cities to work on the infrastructure, isn't it so?

Not really many of their women worked as nannies, home keepers and domestic servants. The Indians came to work on their rail tracks. Of course some of the men were employed as construction workers.

Greenback:
With all due respect,bro,is this true?
i don't believe this!

Google Jan Van Riebeck. You can make your own research and come back.

IronGalaxy:
Where were the black South Africans when their infrastructure was being "built"? Secondly, infrastructure is still being built in South Africa to this day, and it has never stopped...so who's responsible for it?
Jealously, bitterness, and white worship will be the end of you, Nigerians

During apartheid blacks were restricted to the townships....you needed a pass as a black person to enter the cities.

yinkeys:
Wow See as SA infrastructure make sense

You need to visit to understand.....Nigeria will never be like SA. The place was well and thoughtfully planned. Every single part of the country was planned.

Reference:
We didn't keep our colonial masters long enough so we have a date with destiny. To collectively take this country back to pre colonial status, back to riding mules, wearing sack cloth and living in thatch huts. Then and only then will our collective senses awaken. There is no other way I can explain the steady decline of this entity called Nigeria.

South Africa's development has nothing to do with colonial masters. You need to study their history....Great Britain colonized both white and black South Africans. The whites from Holland had already settled there long before Great Britain came along.....What brought the white settlers from Holland is story for another day.

Beautiful country all year round....

You mean bole?

The Elephant has climbed the tree again. As sure as tomorrow is Sunday they won't be there when it matters most.

The most painful thing is that there's no effort from anywhere to try to correct some of these anomalies. It's business as usual.

Good. Peace is better. Palestinians should lick their wounds and let go.

Thanks to Tinumbu, Wike and their supporters. We are not even allowed to complain again.

Prayers are an embarrassment. Why didn't he lead prayers for Nigeria when Jonathan was president?

Truth is no country had it's problems solved by prayers....yet prayer-loving Nigerians never ever learn

Corruption and lack of discipline are the only things holding Nigeria down and they are what we can handle..........so what exactly are the prayers for?

He's correct...36 states means 36 Houses of Assembly.

Do you know how much money they gulp from the state resources? Plus bicameral legislature where we have both the Senate and House of Representatives......the constitution needs to be amended otherwise it will be difficult for Nigeria to work.

Technicality as usual......never substantial....

Nigeria's democracy is an embarrassment to democracy.

Do the crime and do the time.

The crocodile tears are a waste of time.

But Yorubas respect elders and their monarchs. What happened?

Could be enemies of Yorubas doing this to discredit them......

Mirasteel:
Jews especially zionist Jews won't live peacefully as far as Israel is still committing genocide in Gaza.

Define genocide and tell me what happened on October 7th.

Bimffo:
Fvvvck Sultana!!!

She really messed up. I know they hate Faith, but this guy was working when you came in to try and yank the basket that was meant for the task. That alone was provocation.

Faith was also wrong and he could have left and not do anything, but he wanted to work. Now, he has been disqualified. Now, he has lost all the gifts he won. His name and reputation is also gone. No media rounds. No nothing. Just a waste of 69 days. E remain 3 days.

Fvvvcking hell. Mistake. Unrecoverable mistake. Life making mistake. Denting Mistake.

If it was a guy that he pulled the bucket with, where they going to disqualify him? If he was the the one that fell down, would they have disqualified Sultana?

Unfair decision.

Faith was my favorite....I liked him but noticed he suddenly didn't like mixing with others. He should have controlled himself....big mess up....no excuses.

Almunjid:
Show of the shameless, by the shameless and for the shameless.

Comment of the shameless for the shameless and by the shameless.....

Yes because the response by emergency services will leave so much to be desired. Why are we pretending? Nigeria is a mess.

Akpabio should keep quiet and stop patronizing us. He mocks Nigerians at every opportunity while continuing his stealing and the only reason he occupies an exalted position is because the corruption in Nigeria.

Akpabio ordinarily belongs in jail just like Rochas Okorocha and others like them. In a functional system they'll be rotting in jail......
