Lizilicious:Pity yourself, pity Nigerians for self-hate |
A killer, that is what you are pornmaniac22:Please go to a Teaching Hospital if you are close to any. |
They are ready to crucify this guy because he indicated his displeasure with a pastor that has a private plane that could easily be fitted with more than 20 passenger seats from South Africa. The irony is, this are the same people who critized politicians that distributed little bags of rice and garri when they could have done far more. Yes, it was a publicity stunt. It shows how consentrated wealth in the hands of a few do not circulate except for the few hedonic pleasures. If they were under 17 years old Swaziland virgins dancing naked nko? |
You made a good point but don't distort history. Pa Ojukwu volunteered his Rose Royce. His other vehicles are Agulefo playing Lagos to the East and back. nick50:Edo State actually gave returning indigenes some money to settle down, start a business or rent a place for a couple of months until they could stand on their own. But even good gesture, no matter the amount can be eroded by inflation years into the future. In those days, you could rent a room in Lagos proper for about five pounds. Further up to Surulere, two pounds ten and around Mushin for a couple of pounds and less. The good gesture of extending twenty pounds only to Igbo that some saw as bribes for votes; later backfired years after as peanuts or nothing. If money is extended to those Nigerians returning from South Africa, the givers must learn from history. |
The relationship between Nigerians and South Africans is like that of estranged husband and wife in divorce. The husband cried about all he did for her. The wife asked, what have you done for me lately, abi na that me and the children dey chop naow? |
It never ceases to amaze me how Nigerians sympathize with mass murderers. When people steal with impunity, thousands of people are deprived of lives, sentenced to hunger, denied salaries hospitals and schools. They take off, live in foreign countries without making any income only to cry of cancer and now mental depression. Yet, we are told every country has criminals by the crime culture apologists. That is others do it. Look at the percentage and proportion of what others steal in those countries compared to what is stolen in Nigeria. Any allocation is not safe for any project or salary. They steal everything and cry for the rule of law, due process and democracy. Do you think that anyone would dare steal one third, half or the whole foreign reserve or savings of a country in USA, European country or China? |
I do not care much for religion the cause of the worst and constant wars in history. Nevertheless, I respect the choice of anyone as long as it does not infringe on the Right of others. There is nothing worse in this world than religious intolerance. No reasonable person think human sacrifice is the way to appease God by Abraham, Christians' communion ritual or African indigenous religious beliefs. There is a place for Oro, a place for Muslims and a place for Christians without any conflicts. There are even opposing antagonistic demonstrations at the same place and time well policed in many countries. The problem is one religion wants to dominate others while Yoruba religion have never sought converts by tulasi. Those of us quite aware of the Trojan horse in Muslim and Christian religions and how they have overtaken African cultures and civilization are weary of those that are still naive enough to think that you can be more Muslim or more Christian than those that converted you. Fight and protest the fetishes, inhumane treatment and oppressive rituals in local religions otherwise, foreigners would come and teach you the history of your religions. |
You cannot be more Muslim or more Christian than those that converted you. |
A shame and stigma that will remain with Nigeria forever. Oh, Ghana threw out Nigerians first. So what, a population about the size of Lagos? They were amicable, greatful and easy to get along with compared to our fellow Nigerians. |
Oh well well. Here we go again. The guy below me will be grateful and show appreciation as always. |
Copies of this video must presented to to their bosses at regional and Abuja headqts. |
$9 Billions award to the company is more conspicuous than the origin of the contract and who failed. The International oil companies have more might and can afford to fight until they win. Quinn knew that and would not try them especially as he had conspired with them. Who is the Nigerian former AG that was a member of the unanimous decision on the Arbitration panel? |
I strongly believe that no one should give up, pray and play dead in front of a gun you are sure has bullets that will kill you instantly. If you can fight back, you stand a chance. But you only stand a good chance of survival if you use your brain in front of militia when you are outgunned, outnumbered and outclassed since the only weapon you have left is that brain to negotiate your way out. Facing a bully one to one or even one to two is different from facing a menacing crowd. Kidnappers are cowards on one to one but feed on numbers. Brothers, be careful. |
A very good piece. These shell companies are on treasure hunting and African countries are very susceptible because of political crooks within. We can also use our court to incur heavy fines on these local and foreign crooks. It may end up at the world court or balance out. |
When I see people rejecting stomach infrastructure, demanding real substantive support by marching against politicians' salaries at the state capitals telling them to surrender their pay or their lives. Then and only then we will know Nigerians on the streets are mad, not against poor foreigners that never harm you. |
This is a shame. Look at what you guys turned a serious matter into. Africans are cursed ni? |
I keep on reading if our country was okay, we would not be in South Africa - Big lie! We left Nigeria when it was flowing with milk and honey without oil. Some Europeans and Americans leave their country but none hate their country passionately as Nigerians. A woman who moved to her husband house telling them her parents' house was a shi*thole, would be treated exactly the same way sooner or later. |
This guy finally wakes up. When I think about Igbo I grew up with, I always wonder about the caliber of leaders Igbo and Yoruba look up to today. But then, they were not chosen the way Igbo and Yoruba past leaders were chosen. As for Hausa, I think their lack of leadership usurped by Fulani complicates matter. |
Look, stop all these gratuitous and old praises on yourselves. Ghana with it's little resources did proportionally more for each African Country than Nigeria. Yet, we threw out the children of Nkrumah. We cannot force any country to do more for us than we can do for ourselves. We have no control over their actions toward us. We have control over our own actions within. Stop condemning one another and work to lift your village, city and county up. |
Call me a dreamer if you want. I hope we all realize that Nigeria has its faults but certainly not a shiitholu country worse than anywhere else. We may begin to respect regional cultures and people the way our parents and grandparents did and got along. We take one another for granted and provoke one another unnecessarily. I am not naive because I accept that the days you trust Hausa for their honesty and even leave a whole house to him is gone. The days Igbo can be trusted for hard work and loyalty are gone. The days Yoruba can be trusted for tolerance and accommodation are gone. But we can remind ourselves of those days, tell her children so that we can use those days as our goal. Nigeria is the only Country we can call ours, love and fight with better chances for reconciliations than where is not ours. Stop and smell the roses, Nigeria was where all Africans came to. |
Very smart guy. A real diplomat. Only God knows what he is saying or doing behind closed doors. This guy is a nationalist. A fierce one too. |
This is a foolish statement from a representative of the Government. He should be fired for revealing the motive of nationalists among them. Nobody wants to be dominated. They claim they did not rescue their country from the white men only to surrender it to other Africans. Look, until you get out, you do not realize how many opportunities you could have taken advantage of in your own Country. This is why Yoruba tell themselves that what you are looking for in Sokoto is inside your sokoto. |
Most of the comments here are reasonable, others want Nigeria to pay shell company as in empty shell, through the nose. Anything or anybody but Nigeria. Other 419 companies are waiting to obtain fraudulent judgment against Nigeria. Unfortunately, those who call this company Yahoo Yahoo comany are right. There are many of them waiting. |
You need to think. Do you know how many innocent Ghanaians were kicked out and who even reported them to Police? Most of them were teachers, agricultural workers and laborers doing jobs Nigerians refused to do. Once the stigma went out, even innocent Ghanaians left out of fear and being picked on. The sad part of the mess were Ghanaians that were born in Nigeria. Some of them were in Lagos before other Nigerians. Take the Lawsons or Birney for example, they have established here forever. I do not know if Birney Zoo is still functional, his grannies were here before many of us. No, you need to think. Are you saying the majority of South Africans (or Nigerians) are criminals? What about those that demonstrated that they love Nigerians, are they criminals too? The ones you marry and spend money on, are they, criminals, too? You need to think deep and stop exposing your apologist culture for crimes we used to call ABOMINATION. Do you know the population of Nigeria? Tell me one country in Africa or Europe that will let Nigerians overwhelm them, not to mention some criminals. You better put on your thinking cap. Any European or American doing business in Nigeria will tell you it is the best place to make money as long as you can hold your nose. Go and ask why Virgin Airline ran out. If only Nigerians can work as hard as they do in foreign countries, in Nigeria; we will have a rich Country. You must be part of the crime celebration culture. Get out of my face!

Whenever a foreigner is doing well, natives not doing as well harbor certain amount of jealousy even in Europe and America. Especially, African Americans. This is not limited to South Africans. What we cannot hide are our criminals and their apologists worshipping and glorifying money as if there is nothing else worthwhile. BTW, do you know that girls used to fall in love for clean, well ironed white shirts? Go figure the relevance of that to our vanities today. Nukilia: |
My only problem is that robbing Sule to pay Paul is not a good way to recover our money from their cronies. These same Nigerians conspired with them in the first place. No reasonable court would order an opponent with meager income, an African country for that matter to empty it's purse. A reasonable court does not bankrupt an opponent in a JudeoChristian capitalist society. This is why courts ask for financial statements of both parties. |
ednut1:Thanks, good point. It was the reason Azikiwe cried out the loudest. Who would ever believe that any African country would kick out the children of Nkrumah? Hate is a double edge sword but only reasonable people understand that. The name you call yourselves and others call you poison the well you drink from. Nigerians thought they were kicking out criminals and prostitutes from Ghana, Kofi Busia kicked out business men and law abiding Nigerians. South Africa is our mirror! |
Those asking Nigeria to invade South Africa unless they stop their criminals are myopic. Has Nigeria stop it's criminals inside or outside the Country? We have Nigerian apologists justifying and celebrating criminals for immortal behavior soiling the reputation of the majority, the modest hardworking Nigerians everywhere We have a crime culture that we need to address at home. There many virtues and reputation that has nothing to do with money. Just ask you parents or grannies. |
These attacks on Nigerians everywhere, not only in South Africa is depressing to say the least. The crimes committed by Nigerians at home have been glorified, celebrated and are being exported. Even worse, is to justify these crimes and turn them into bravery. Others claim lack of enabling environment at home. Yet, there are Nigerians that are successful outside doing the right thing after finding out they have to work twice as hard outside. To claim that it is better to die outside doing crime than to die at home of hunger, Boko Haram or FULANI heardmen is a cope out. S. Africans or Ghanaians or Americans can say the same. Accept and change your crime tendencies as a way to riches. No matter how many Nigerians succeed at home or abroad, we are notorious for the crimes of a few. No country owes us anything to collect in crimes, not even South Africans. Remember Ghana Must Go! |
To arrest Gowon in Lagos, eh? Arrest Buhari in Japan. Arrest Ekweremadu. Arrest Okorocha. With what Army? O.k, No wonder Ojukwu ordered Azikiwe to come home for consultation. MetaPhysical:I see! selemempe:BTW, I think Yakassi is senile. |
Nigerian Government must anticipate a reprisal. Send Police and Army to guide all South African Interest. This is not the time for tit for tat. Some of you may remember Ghana Must Go in Nigeria. |
