diamond68:Thanks for your reply. It must have been a terrible experience. I can only imagine. Why don’t they like to drink water ? Try drinking 2 liters of water a day. Only white people can maintain it because they were raised like that . Black people ? Wetin be water. Na one coke with Eba and gbegiri 🤣🤣Considering we are based in the tropics and sweat a lot, should it not be a reason to drink lots of water? At least to replace the fluids and freshen the body. |
tensazangetsu20:Another metric is HDI as per capita income can be deceiving. See Gabon and Equatorial Guinea. |
tensazangetsu20:Genuine desire and poverty man. True love does not exist in poor places - you stated this a few years ago. Na why I dey vex for the kind men we get as normal normal, these women can do better than they are today. Too many arrogant and useless men who lack the mental capacity to build a functioning society! Omho if you have plans to leave Nigeria and you have done your research on the country and you are sure of it, please leave that country.They should please be skilled and be prepared to learn the native language if it is non-English speaking. The arrogance to go to another man's country yet lament that English is not spoken is befuddling! |
diamond68:Does this apply to black ladies who were born and bred in the UK rather than recent immigrants? Also, do you think it applies as well to African American women? Nevertheless, I do agree that the black skin is best suited for a tropical environment. This is not surprising as black people originated from sub-Saharan Africa. And why don't they like to drink water? |
tensazangetsu20:There are so many who wish we failed in our expeditions. Largely useless men who lived abroad yet perpetuated the same acts which made Nigeria what it is. One begins to wonder what they have learned in the abroad. They fight themselves online yet profess fake love upandown. They lack introspection in how Nigeria is amongst other nations and continue opening their smelly mouths and using their filthy fingers to spew mumbo-jumbo. You see them rap about how they lived abroad, yet they support decisions that make Nigeria what it is. Proud, unintelligent, stoopid, arrogant and poor riff-raffs! Bunch of useless men! |
Kenn55:The first bold is true as it gives one an array of options. Life is more interesting and enjoyable when options are available at the beck and call. The second bold is apt, but they will never let go of it because they know the enormous advantage it offers them. They are largely hypocritical. Moreover, ALL Nigerian elites have a second citizenship and are proud of it. In this woman's case, it is because she is UK based. The tale will be different from those based in the US as there are more economic opportunities an a significant black population to tap into. |
FoolishBoy419:Me too want to see his reply. Let me stop here for now. |
donparosky:I pm'd you. |
Oshokhai69:Tell that to the Igbos and Yorubas who fight themselves every day on social media. Nigerians don't love themselves. That is a lie that has gone too far! You that is highlife, I don't give a fvck about you or what you think of me! Oshokhai69:My parents worked for their wealth, and I appreciate them. However, what about the innocent Nigerians who are killed daily for going about their businesses? Those are the people you should sympathise with as I am very much okay and comfortable. |
Oshokhai69:That is none of my business. Continue hustling and taking shitt from lazy men where ever it is you are hustling. For you, japa is the best thing that will ever happen in your life. And you will always try to justify that japa because you think it makes you better than those you left in Naija.Where have I stated that I am better than people in Nigeria? I have friends who are doing well in Nigeria and I would never mock them because I live abroad. I don't go about plastering my residence in the abroad on anyone's face. However, I will not categorise other men as lazy. Call it low self-esteem or whatever, I don't care. I am retrospective of my environment and upbringing. The good thing is that with this mentality of yours, Nigerian men who exhibit similar traits go hear am for body! |
Farfalla:It is how the typical Nigerian man behaves - arrogant, ignorant and poor. It is why I am gradually building an ideology within me to tell foreigners regardless of their race or origin to deal with them when found wanting. If Chinese or Americans are arrogant, I can understand. But the Monkeys from West Africa? Never! South Africans or Kenyans should deal with them ruthlessly, brutally, thoroughly and mercilessly! They cannot build their country, na to dey shout say other men are lazy. Foolish people! |
Oshokhai69:I am not here to make you or anyone happy! Keep going about labelling other African men as lazy. The native men are in their dominant environment. Whether they work or not is not a reason to label them lazy especially as the country you come from is not better than theirs. So-called hard-working men who cannot build a functioning society! Nonsense! |
Oshokhai69:Okay. But she stated it is not just one case, but several cases. Regarding the one caught on video, she mentioned that he has been charged in court. If he is the same person and has been found innocent, good for him and the community. The thing is their lazy men there hate Nigerian men cause according to them, Nigerian men take their women using money they throw around.First bold: There lies the problem. I find it odd that foreign males will categorise the native males as "lazy". How can you go to another man's country only to term the men there as "lazy"? You might say the men are not explorers as they are fewer in Nigeria, but not every male desires to live outside his dominant society. There are over 5000 Nigerians (there could be more) in Japan, but less than 1000 Japanese in Nigeria. Are Japanese men lazy because they are not abundant in Nigeria? Second bold: This is the same way our men spoilt our women only to lament that the same women love money. Thereafter, we read our young men lampoon our women and plan to marry dem Ethiopians and Zimbabweans. Now, those women know Nigerian men to be unnecessarily munificent and literal buyers of women. Hopefully, tomorrow, we will not read that Kenyan abi Rwandan women love money too much o. The envious lazy men start these rumors about how Nigerian women are killing their girls for money rituals and this is how xenophobic attacks start. Same thing happened in SA. All rumors spread to less to the killing of innocent Nigerians in those countries.Another issue: You put it to the native men's faces, especially poorer ones, that we have money. How else do you expect them to react? Also, Nigeria is not as influential as China, India or even Japan as these are Kenyan's foreign major investors' countries of citizenship. So, to attack Nigerians would not be difficult as when you decide to seek for help from Nigerian authorities, it is likely names will be sorted out based on ethnicity as it happened in Sudan. In summary, when you are in another man's country considering how divisive and poor Nigeria is, no matter how much you make, don't categorise the native men as lazy. No one likes that. Two, as much as you love their women, do it discretely without rubbing it on their faces. Most Africans don't like Nigerians and Nigeria is not powerful to intercede on her citizens' behalf in time of assistance. |
I support MrBrownJay's post. The group should focus on banning the ads in public view and situating the clubs in residential areas and close to schools. Other than that, strip clubs should be allowed to exist. What next? Ban hotels and nightclubs? Ban beer parlours? Does Lagos practice Sharia? Even Dubai has strip clubs! ![]() |
shortgun:Water is wet. |
Kelechi009:I know we have gone back and forth regarding this issue, but on the bold: rituals are ineffective and do not make one rich. Truth has to be said. Emphasising that it is effective lends credence to the act and believers who continue to perpetrate them. Nigerians, especially the uneducated ones, are known to commit a lot of crimes wherever they go. For instance, Dubai and the UAE as a whole, which only admits educated immigrants, have problems such as cult gangs among Nigerians, but you won't find these kinds of problems in the West, where only educated immigrants are accepted.Agreed. Furthermore, the most of the time, xenophobic countries stem not from Nigerian crimes but rather from jealousy of living in a place where they are not successful because to their black skin or whatever reason. Before Nigerians started moving to Kenya, there has been known crimes in that country. Johannesburg, South Africa for example has the highest crime rate in the Whole of Africa with Crime Index: 80.8. Johannesburg is plagued by high crime rates.Whether those countries have crimes is not really my concern as crimes exist everywhere. The problem arises when a particular nationality is notorious for committing certain crimes and then comes online to boast about them. In my books, anyone who should commit a crime should do so in his/her dominant society. The moment you are in a different society to commit crimes, anything the person sees, let him or her take it like that. |
Southern African countries do not forget the Apartheid era. I understand their stance. |
nedekid:Ah! Traffic light. I have witnessed many close encounters vehicle owners have when in a tight corner. Whenever I see such, I stand on one side to witness how they navigate themselves and so far, in all of my experiences, I have not heard a SINGLE HORN. None alighted to control the traffic or shout at the other passengers. Each person understood the assignment and in less than 30 seconds, the issue was solved. Honestly, we have a longgggggggggggg way to go. We have a lot to learn, unlearn and relearn. Those days you can enter the UK as a Nigerian and open a bank account easily, even get credit cards etc. But of course as usual Nigerians opened those accounts and used them for fraud, took credit and dodged etc. Now it is almost impossible to open accounts. Not just in UK, but all over the world. Is that smartness?I was told the same that banks here are hesitant to open bank accounts for "Africans" as they tend to defraud the system. I had a strong feeling the "Africans" here would be Nigerians. They would scream that they are intelligent people and others hate them because of their intelligence! Bunch of arrogant and ignorant human beings! |
seunmsg:As expected when I saw your moniker as the OP, I knew something was fishy. Well, the news is that countries especially those outside of Africa don't bother with the ethnicity of criminals especially when the criminals are black Africans. Also, they care less because they know that Africa is composed of too many ethnic groups. So, you have to make do with the fact that regardless of the language these criminals speak, French authorities will categorise every Nigerian passport holder to be the same and be accorded the same treatment. |
Litmus:That is not true judging by your post's history. You have always supported criminality and found ways to absolve Nigerians when found wanting even when hard evidence is present. So, tell the house, are cult wars the best exports Nigerians, largely very poor compared to Italians, can offer to the world? Or are you going to blame imaginary Togolese and Nigeriens as you always do for impersonating Nigerians? |
Last weekend, I participated in an African-themed event and we (a little group) had lunch opposite the venue. A Ghanaian, Beninouse, two Kenyans, a Ugandan and a Namibian. One of the Kenyans, a lady, narrated how Nigerians are troublesome in the country. What crimes do they commit, I asked. She narrated with grief and sorrow that Nigerians are behind the gruesome murder of young Kenyan girls and afterwards, they dump the bodies near bushes and dumpsites. What about the Somalians? "They are not troublesome and even bring business to the country". The Ghanaians? "Those ones are not troublesome either" What about South Africans? "Oh, they are the best! They follow the rules and mind their business. The problem is Nigerians". The Ugandan interjected to say that "Nigerians are very cunny to which they equate it as "smartness"". I felt bad and apologised but reminded her that back in Nigeria, it is actually a ritual (pun unintended) to have young girls murdered for simply no reason. Furthermore, I told her that whenever these Nigerians are arrested, they should be hanged, no ifs or buts! They should not allow Ruto's in-law who is a Nigerian to lobby anything but deal with the perpetrators brutally, thoroughly, and mercilessly. Also, I advised that Kenya should put up restrictive border controls against Nigerians regardless of what they opine. When I condemn crime, Ndi lovey-dovey will accuse me of being an Uncle Tom. Tomorrow, ignorant and arrogant Nigerians will say Kenyans are xenophobic when they get angry as their young women's bodies are mutilated. Yes, mutilated as certain body parts are nowhere to be found upon recovery of the dead bodies. Apparently, the gIaNtS of Africa have carried their "rituals make one rich mentality" outside the borders of Nigeria. I wonder what Kelechi009 has to say about our recent ritual exports to East Africa. |

cc: pansophist What do you make of Ukraine's recent success against Russia? To be honest, though, I care less about them killing themselves because they (on both sides) care(d) less when Nigerians were/are brutally murdered. As I write, black Muslims in Sudan are being slaughtered while people and their communities are razed in Zamfara. I never see anybody shout or rally against those deaths. What I am more concerned about is having a sole superpower as power corrupts and absolute power corrupts the more. For this reason, I wish to see another superpower(s) emerge as this gives options to smaller nations. Should Russia fall, China is next and by then, it is finished. Recently, I have concluded that black people, regardless of location and ancestry, in this century cannot emerge as a dominant economic and military force as China for many reasons. So, we should have different power blocs to prevent monopolies and abuses of power. Also, I have come across books such as "White Malice: The CIA And The Covert Recolonisation Of Africa" and "African Literature And The CIA" which detailed the extent the US and the West have attacked and destroyed our nascent growth over the years. Other books such as "Kaiser Holocaust: Germany's Forgotten Genocide", "German Rule, African Subjects: State Aspirations and the Reality of Power in Colonial Namibia" and "King Leopold's Ghost: A Story of Greed, Terror, and Heroism in Colonial Africa" show the extent the dehumanisation against black people have lasted. It is why I am bemused and sometimes amused when I see our people have a say in the Ukraine-Russian issue or that of China-Taiwan/US or Israel/US/West and the Arab World. Sha, I was once like them, so I can understand a part of it. |
pansophist:I agree with you on the bold. The blame is on the men who worship them. |
Pentagon007:Interesting, but not surprising. There must be a demonic spirit lurking around the moment one decides to be an APC supporter. |
Jokerman:Wow! Rent must be so high these days if self-con costs that much. BTW, which parts of Lagos? |
43Ronin:And it is worsened by outlandish statements by someone of his status because other men will steer clear of women whose men have labelled with derogatory words. Two, there is no economic benefit in marrying a Nigerian whether male or female. So, it is a double whammy. The majority of Nigerians will marry themselves. The continuous public disgrace by both genders does no one good. |
alizma:That is where the fault comes from...hasty generalisation. Just because someone disagrees with another person does not mean one should make a blanket statement about everyone in that area. Just as the "men are scum" movement. If I were a young lady, I would steer clear of him regardless of his wealth and status. |
