At some point most Nigerians have to accept that this unitary system has failed. We need to go back to at least 6 regional areas. Instead of Southerners to accept that Northerners have outsmarted them at every rule they have promulgated like the unitary system, they keep blaming one another. You cannot change the rule in the middle or end of the game to win. Let everyone go back to their tents and show us what they are capable of. Don't blame your failure on others. The worst mistake Awolowo made was coming to the Federal. The West has gone backwards since. If you developed your region, investment and talents would be on the que to come in. It is then up to you to determine which you want. Stay in your lane make I pass. |
Why are running like a stray mad dog from a shiitass irremediable village to Dubai taking your daily portion of poo? Na me send you? asokoromadam: |
asokoromadam:Oh sorry eh. Pele, Do. You are in pain for leaving your fillage for another man's filage. Na who destroy your own fillage and made it inhabitable for you? Naow you wan go destroy another man's fillage. |
theenchanter:Sir, when are we going to become a Nation when we had civilized Empires before the rest of the world until they come and destroyed us to recruit slaves and natural resources to build their nation's? What has a Nation got to do with developing our individual villages for basic water, food and projects that can make us comfortable at home without venturing out for basic survival. The reason we have become selfish willing to sacrifice our neighbors is hunger at home. If the leaders want us to keep coming back to them for stomach infrastructure, why should they teach us how to fish forever? Right now it is the survival of the fittest, if I don't chop you, you go chop me. |
We know the solutions to the problems in Nigeria. Go to any man or woman on the street, he will tell you what we all know but fail to do. No, it is not our leaders alone because WE voted for them based on our parochial interest, celebrate them while looting us dry, throw a big welcome party for them when caught and sent to jail. And more so when we visit them daily begging for stomach infrastructure we all can get from good policies and projects in our villages. Oh, only God can save Nigeria? We are hypocrites deceiving ourselves. Didn't one of them say they steal because we encourage them with no consequences? Abi I lie |
Honestly, we have to feel sorry for ourselves for electing these types of leaders to rule all over Nigeria. Could Labor Party or another party do better north, south and center? Oh I forgot, Oshimole did not contest in Labor Party and Mimiko went back to PDP. All the Nigerian professors from London School of Economics, Cambridge, Harvard, McGill universities could not help Nigeria, certificate or diploma course none of the universities in Lagos can teach will help this son of a looter. Another extacode abi. Tonda fire your ass! |
Yes, there is little one can cheer about our leaders but we are the ones that elected crooks once they come from our villages. Not only do we elect them again and again, we celebrate and defend them each time they are caught looting. We never questioned how they got their foriegn vanities conspicuously displaced in our face, "gifted" to a few that are girlfriend and relatives when the same money can be invested in village projects, used to sponsor innovative ideas or improve solar technology, clean water from ocean and river flowing through our noses. Then we echo "shiitass" country, city and villages others called us. QUESTION! What are you doing in shiitass country, towns and villages if you come from shiitass cities and villages? Stay there and turn it around so that your children will not leave home for another man's country, city and village. Stop pointing one finger while the rest point to you dumdumb . |
OP, you made a mess of your good point by clouding it with uncontrollable population control in Africa. Which country can achieve anything without population control? Better still, which family can feed all members of the family without adequate planning? God will provide, abi. Look at where the number of poor people have been reduced most, China! How? After famine, poverty and overpopulation they FORCED one family one child. You are right, developed countries want to keep Africa poor to remain source of cheap labor and resources. Our development is a threat to them. Think about Structural Adjustment and Devaluation. Their helpers and proponents are your London School of Economics and Harvard educated African graduates. |
Codes151:I agree that our immediate medical problems are infectious and parasitic diseases but spine problems in developing countries that rely a great deal on physical labor is up there. When she claimed - Spine issues does not affect bowel and bladder functioning - I almost disagree until I read further - Bowel or bladder problems. Some of the tests may not be readily available to most people but spine problems are more common than we think especially in poor countries like ours where physical labor is common. Thanks Ma'am. |
Just look at who Fajuyi died for and later they called him a traitor. Just look at who Wole Soyinka almost died for and they called him a coward. Just look at who Banjo died for and now called him a traitor. Explain why Banjo was even arrested in the first place. They cannot, they are now saying Ojukwu killed him with others for fighting for his (Ojukwu's) cause against his own Yoruba people! What did Banjo do between the time he was arrested for joining Igbo to install Ironsi and the time Ojukwu killed him. They claim he betrayed Ojukwu. Yoruba you see your life? When the daughter of Oba Oyekan was warned not to follow her Igbo husband to Biafra, she ignored everybody. She was lucky, she escaped back home. Her generation will run when they see Igbo from what she went through in Biafra. I have always wondered how these Igbo children went wild against their only friends in Nigeria, Yoruba, in their own land. It is based on what (poison) their parents that benefited from Yoruba are feeding them. Do not hate Igbo please, deal with them cautiously, they will stab you in the back for your own land. |
What is surprising here is that at a time when Yoruba believed Igbo was their closest brother and confidant, Igbo had a sanister plan for Yoruba. I wonder what Fajuyi and Ogundipe we're thinking about Ironsi and Ojukwu. The take over of civilian Government was planned with a small group of naive Yoruba officers like Banjo to pave the way for Ironsi take over from Tafawa Balewa. They lied that they were invited by the civilian Government. They liked that they wanted Awolowo as the President. Igbo only look and pave the way for Igbo rule. Very disappointing. So Igbo was never Yoruba friend, they just stoop to conquer. Very sad |
lamo, thanks for your post. I am personally against turning cassava to ethanol but all for starch that is used in variety of products including pharmaceutical goods and drugs. iammo:Please tell us what cassava is used for when we export it that cannot be turned into at home. Do you realize how much we pay importing starch for pharmaceutical products? Export cheap cassava to import expensive starch in 2019? Get a life sir hopevalley: |
Hmm. Does kerosene qualify as stomach infrastructure? People vote with their feet not their brains. Same same all over. |
Individual achievement in a foreign country can never take us anywhere. Pray for another first in Africa like the 60s and first in the world so that blacks can be respected everywhere. |
Say what you want. Africans in Diaspora do not take kindly to Africans aligning themselves with extreme right conservative parties so that they can be used against their people. Nigerian man elected as first black senator in Italy |
Africans or Blacks in Diaspora must realize that once in a position of authority, even as the head of sh.it carriers, they must act above par. What others may easily get away with, they cannot. |
Reverse Mission or Reverse Corruption by exploiting the tithes of the poor to buy Jets and aggrandize themselves. But it is not enough to be the richest pastor if you cannot improve the situation at home of the poorest folks on earth. |
QUESTION! Why are we so obsessed with foreign awards, international jobs and other countries but our own? After messing up our villages, towns, countries and Continent: should others allow us to mess up their own? THINK. |
This guy called Jaghahem, Jagajaga or Jagenhghar is a creep or a sadist. I was so mad until I realized that he crossed many people. In the first place, as bad as Nigeria is, a police soldier or Navy man can be lynched alive by a mob if he killed innocent man recklessly. Unlike South Africa or USA. Nigerians have this sense of outrage, right and audacity to retaliate immediately. Try that in South Africa or US. With all our fault and yes, ethnic differences, Africans are more humain and decent. Our problem has to do with greed for what others have. If it pays you to die like a dog outside because you want what you can get inside Nigeria if you only work as hard, its your perogative. We cry everyday about lack of enabling environment but succeed in hostile, worse and attrocious environment all over the world where we are hated without rights. So shut the hell up! . |
Of all countries, South African barbaric treatment and killing of fellow Africans, not only Nigerians must be tabled and discussed at the African Union. These gory treatments cannot be condoned within any African community. Forget about any civilized community. |
1. Misleading headline intentionally to cause ladies anger. 2. International my foot. Would it make a difference if the name is Swahili? 3. Someone is trying to make administrative changes or exhort dues. |
Anything foreign is a big deal in Africa. Then many are surprised by how easily we sold ourselves and resources cheap in exchange for mirror then and plastic now. Do you guys realize that before Nigerian soldiers ventured into politics, we had fine men in European and American armies? Many of the returned slaves back to Liberia all the way to South Africa were commissioned into foreign Armed Forces. Even recently, Aguiyi Ironsi, Sodeinde, Ogundipe and many others fought in Congo. This first to do this or that is European and American mentality that does not apply to Africans. We have always being our own master in most field since beginning of times. Children fight over crumbs, you hia? BTW, congratulations to my Sis. |
This is a warning to those of you advertising your babes or those sheepishly following theirr girls into social media. Most of them have alterior motive to gain the attention of money bags. It is not the ladies alone, some men love-vendor or advertize their ladies for material gain. If he is not concern, ladies be worried. |
This Yoruba people na wah. Dey give other ethnic group hypertension. Kilode! |
City001:That Oshi girl was 17! She don get bele yet abi still dey beg God? Oshiomole needs a nephew in the house to pump her well. As for Regina, make una leave her alone nah. Na who get money who nor go wan chop young thing? My only problem na for bringing God grace inside as if other young hard working girls are stupid. A country where most people have forsaken hard work can never prosper, no be curse o. |
The three kings families are still prominent today. Iragun of Ila still famous. Olugbon family highly respect. Aresa family highly successful in Lagos (Martins Omo Aresa) upon whom Martins Street was named by Governor Glover. |
You have to pity Africans. We grew up with pride in how fluent we were in Latin and Arabic so that we can grow and move closer to God. This is 2019 and counting, we are still deeply transferring people that have never done any good in our communities as God's will. When are Africans going to wake up from this slumber. Please, please, please PITY YOUR CHILDREN! |
The OP that compiled this list needs serious education. Where are the greatest Africans they never teach you a about in class? This demonstrates the mis-education of Africans. |
I think Yoruba should be proud that almost every prominent ethnic group wants to relate and be part of Ile-Ife and Oduduwa. I other words cling the glory of those proud arrogant but accommodating Yoruba from the top. |
Akolawole:Thank you. Don't mind the fool. How many of them that would rather die living good life in Africa sing our praises? This is how they lure many abroad singing good life only to realize you have to survive against all odds. They complain about lack of enabling environment only to make it in worse hostile environment. If they only tried that hard at home. Would they tell the truth? For wia! |
babzo:ODESON! Instigating others to cross the desert and sea |
