Literature / Re: Nigeria to Europe through the desert-A true life story by gilgee(m): 7:47am On Mar 21, 2018
I had a similar experience. My sojourn was through the Sahara to Libya. We trekked for three good days before setting foot on an inhabited land called Ghat, in the mountainous region of Libya. It was a terrible experience, and I had just become 15!

I have vowed to share my story with the world at the right time. Against the backdrop of my experiences and pain, I acquired burning aspirations that motivated me to develop myself to the extent of obtaining both bachelor and master degrees from some of the best institutions in the world, and I even made a first class in the process.

It doesn’t really matter how your story begins. What truly matters is what you make of all the pains, hardship, opportunities, and the experiences.

Politics / Re: Documentary On Poverty And Corruption In Nigeria by gilgee(m): 1:10pm On Apr 14, 2013
We should all share this with friends and even foes until it gets to every Nigerian. The solution to this corruption problem is, holding our leaders accountable for every undoing of theirs and clamouring boldly for our rights! These leaders think an average Nigerian is a toothless dog....hence their persistent wickedness.

Do you really hate the Yoruba people in reality? I mean, do ya'll have this much hatred for each other in reality?

Why are we all Nigerians then? What are you and your tribe doing in Nigeria? Why not peacefully or forcefully breakaway instead of wasting your time here insulting other tribes?

The reason for Nigeria's failure is truly not far fetched. We are not a nation.

A divided nation is an epitome of a failed experiment! Nigeria has been proven as one by ya'll!

The e-wars on Nairaland serves as an evidence of the extent of dis-unity in Nigeria. If there's this much hatred, why haven't ya'll made a move for the Nigerian nation to be divided along ethic/tribal lines?

I call these e-wars "the highest magnitude of cowardice".

If you so hate each other! Come together and divide the nation!

Politics / Quit Whining About Politrickcians & Start Acting! by gilgee(m): 5:54am On Aug 02, 2012
Everyday countless threads are created about our unscrupulous politicians. Good effort....very good effort. But have you asked yourself what good has come out from the numerous politician-bashing threads you've created? I believe none, but increase in tribal hunting and insults. Was that your aim of creating the thread with well expressed grammatical lines? I believe no!

So, we do agree that whining doesn't do no good.

Dear Nigerians,

I am one of you and I am equally tired of our present political class and their antecedents. They have done nothing but loot our resources away.
We have wasted so much energy on gossips, gists and insults to this cause, yet nothing good has come out of it. Instead we've had views separated along religious and tribal lines, patriotism caged by religious and tribal ideologies.

We are one regardless of tribe or religion, and we must let this truth come to light in our hearts. And thus, allow it steer our unified patriotism.

We have a culture where one does what he feels or thinks right for himself and his family, regardless of who is at loss (public). Our politicians are not different. They are only playing out that culture, which has been the norm from yester years. We are the ones at loss here and we must let go of our differences, and come together as a people who've been raped, abused and denied of our privileges by these politrickcians.

It doesn't matter if you are a Muslim, Christian, Traditionalist or even an Atheist. What matters is that we are binded by one cord - Nigeria. The cord that binds us is far stronger and more relevant than those little differences we have allowed to separate us over the years.

No one outside the Nigerian borders would ask you your religion before your country of origin. "Where are you from? " is the first question that would be asked of you, and that further defines the greater importance our Nigeria-ness bears over your tribe, religion or belief.



Therefore, I pray us all to come together as one people and make things right for once. Cowardice has for years been the fuel of our problem. No one wants to die or cast the stone first. How do you intend to achieve victory over corruption, nepotism and political favoritism if you are not willing to sacrifice your immediate joy?

Brave youths in other nations have set examples of the viability of unity. They stood together as one irrespective of their different tribes or religions, and they achieved their aim.

We can do it and we must do it for a change to come.

Grow beyond the binds of religion and tribalism!

Quit hiding behind a computer!

Borrow, steal, grab or find courage!

Note: I am willing to die for Nigeria to become a better place....

Let us all define our mutual aim, put heads and minds together and achieve the aim!

Let us liberate Nigeria and the future of our descendants!

Long live Nigeria!
Long live Nigerians!
Politics / Re: A GEJ Supporter Lists Gej's Achievements, Let's Talk About Them by gilgee(m): 1:39pm On Jul 30, 2012
all4naija: Squandering the future of the nation. They thought they are enjoying only to the failure of the children and Nigerian future. Silly leaders.

Very well said. I don't think the president or the parliamentarians should be blamed. The blame lies on you, myself and everyone on this forum. What have we done to change this trend? Insulting these guys online will never change things.

It's as simple as making do with what's available or fighting the system to a total standstill and an eventual overhaul.

So, what say you? We continue to insult them without effecting any change? Or we fight them and effect changes?

Any leader deserves the honour of his people, because they put him in there. More so, any leader elected into authority is accountable to the electors.

PS: I am neither Pro nor Anti GEJ. I stand for the development of our country and proper governance.
Politics / Re: A GEJ Supporter Lists Gej's Achievements, Let's Talk About Them by gilgee(m): 10:03am On Jul 30, 2012
I am not trying to rubbish the achievements of His Excellency, but comparing his achievements with his promises and the 2012 budget.

I implore everyone (ProGEJ, ProPDP and anti-PDP/ Anti-GEJ) to desist from hurling insults at anyone including me. Though, I do not pay attention to insults, as they help to keep one's focus in check.

As citizens of this great country or any other, it is our responsibility to continuously evaluate the performances of those we voted into power to represent our general interest. It doesn't connote hatred as some would make it seem. Rather, it is an obligation on our part to always direct their footsteps, as they obviously have a lot to tackle. Thus, they sometimes deviate from norms defined by themselves either intentionally or unintentionally.



Finance:

a) I must commend the finance ministry and minister for the biometric evaluation exercise. It's long overdue and doesn't really appears as a great achievement, but of course, we must appreciate Mrs. NOI.

This exercise deserve a whole applause only if:

There's no case of fraud during the acquisition of required apparatus and inflation of costs during implementation and control of this exercise.

Therefore, stating this as a major achievement is a little too early, because we are yet to have a platform for statistical comparison of the pre-biometric-evaluation-pension-expenditures and the post-biometric-evaluation-pension-expenditures. So, on the long run, the basis of appreciation should be "Reduction of cost and subsequent pension fraud checkmated as a result of the biometric evaluation". There's got to be an evidence of performance from statical/numerical perspective.

b) $37 Billion Foreign Reserve- Great thing that our FR has increased; quite plausible.


Energy:

Audit- Auditing per say is not a complete act of transparency. It becomes so only if the audit records are made public in it's most comprehensive rawest form. However, kudos to the president for taking that initiative. Shows to some extent that he's interested in turning things around.

The Ministry Of Power had an allocation of 70,300,000,000 as capital for projects. Are there any factual records to show how much has been spent and how much is left? As at June (last month), Nigeria was generating ~ 4,000 MGW of power, with an actual capacity ~ 5,000 MGW. How much has been spent so far? Was the expenditure carried out without any form of embezzlement? Did His Excellency have his team audit or crosscheck the expenditure report?

Oil n Gas: The $4.5BN deal with Vulcan's quite an achievement. I give His Excellency 25% appreciation, and the remainder % would come if and when the subsidy criminals are thrown into jail; and when the refineries become operational.

Roads: The Ministry of Works got an allocation of N149,200,000,001. Comparing the available fund and the ongoing projects, you would find a great disparity. Current achievement's highly below par.

Transport: I do not have any empirical information to rebut or support the information provided by you. So, I pass for now.

Aviation: Comparison would be made on the basis of the infrastructure installed once the ongoing projects are completed. Allocated capital - 42,900,707,612. The airport buildings shouldn't look like a farm house….

Education: Building 9 new federal universities aint enough. Expanding the existing ones and standardizing the infrastructures for an improved education should be at the top of M.E's priorities. Building is not much of an achievement, though it counts as one. The major achievement is a continuously upgraded maintenance culture. Make world class educational facilities available, not just piling up bricks. I believe 55,056,589,805 is quite enough to achieve this.


On a scale of 10, I think GEJ deserves 4.5 for Project Proposals & Implementation and 2 for accountability and transparency.
Politics / Re: Gbajabiamila Rebut's Allegations Of Financial Impropriety by gilgee(m): 6:30am On Jul 28, 2012
Why are majority of the posts against Mr. Gbaja and not in support of 100% budget implementation? Is it that the average Nigerian youth doesn't have enough intelligence to see the bigger picture?

Mr. Gbaja's doing and/or undoing has no direct bearing on Nigeria and her citizens in this context! The greater focus should be on what affects the interest of the populace: budget implementation!

I am unable to decipher the actual reason behind most Nigerians' love for mediocrity.

You should be clamouring for your president to completely implement the budget, and not typing your strength away on Mr. Gbaja's professional misconduct!

I really don't see Nigeria developing beyond what's obtainable today, if the youths continue to function with this mentality!

There would never be "One-Nigeria". The things I read on this forum speaks more about a better, divided Nigeria. I doubt if Nigeria will ever become a better place with this kind of tribalistic mentality. It's all about "my people, my tribe, my state", it has never been "our nation".

I reckon that Nigeria would do better if divided according to tribal distributions/regions. Saves that, if we are to be really honest, Nigeria is headed for doom. Economic prosperity is a million years away with the kind of mentality prevalent amongst this present generation, which most of the current leaders and political executives subscribe to and function with/by.

A nation divided against itself will never stand. It's either Nigeria divide or adopt true federalism. I believe either of these would reduce this unintelligent and backward mentality called tribalism.

It's become more and more frustrating!
Politics / Re: Why I Went To Cote D'ivorie; I Didn't Run Away - Ojukwu by gilgee(m): 9:51pm On Feb 22, 2011
All the tribalistic nonsense I have been reading on this forum proves beyond every reasonable doubt that:

a. Nigeria is a century behind
b. an average Nigerian is a tribalist
c. 80% of the current generation of Nigerians are in dire need of psychological therapy.
d. The average Nigerian of this generation does not posses the practical ability to impart the desired change to the Nigerian political system ( Tribalism is the father of Nepotism, which is a major enemy of development).

Why not let the past be past? Is it so hard to forge ahead? Are we not tired already? Is this how to take Nigeria to greater heights? This kind of mentality only breeds and grooms intense hatred, which will to a great length mar the anticipated development and prosperity of Nigeria.

People, get out of the box of tribalism! Start thinking us ( Entire nation). A continued romance of tribalism would instill more hatred in our minds and help destroy our already f.ucked up country more.

God help this generation.
