I happen to agree that the majority of Nigerians are just out to scam and they do it ruthlessly without regard for anything, they are immoral and do so with evil intent. Too bad for the few who are true. Sad sad sooooooooo sad.
What a warped logic. Have you actually met 'majority' of Nigerians or are you one of those superficial people who 'study' 'world history' through CNN?

Some people are filled with so much hatred for a group of people that it shows no matter how hard they try to hide it. To the thread starter, look into yourself and begin practice tolerance,it aids your spiritual ascent. Take a look at your thread and tell me it does not smack of morbid hatred and malice for a group of people. Take a closer look at your 'poll'. You need to stop entangling your soul in the endless murky threads of impure volition. Keep the heart stone of your thoughts pure! This is the only way you can find peace!

The people of Southern Nigeria are very tolerant which unfortunately have been mistaken for cowardice. I am beginning to buy into the 'cowardice' concept when we fold our arms and allow some perverted semi brain dead zealots and hypocrites sneak in a stone age law into Lagos, the hub of Naija civilization. Is governor Fishola (however you spell the friggin name) a Muslim? Is that commissioner Abubakar of a man a Muslim? Can anyone confirm? Thanks.

Ol boy, make we stop calling these women 'prostitutes', or is it now guilty until proven innocent? angry Oh well . . . I guess that's the system of 'sharia' police.

Where is Gani, Where is Agbakoba? This is a time you secretly wish for OPC. These guys must be stopped by ALL MEANS necessary, including but not limited t violence.

What do you hope to achieve with this thread? Why would you conduct such a putrid research? You really think it is racism only when blacks are at the receiving end? Be careful what you type here, we have Mexicans on this board. How would you feel if a Mexican opens a thread like this about Nigerians on a Mexican website? Think about it.

Can you show us the woman with the exposed 'bootie' in that picture? They might as well go house to house arresting women sleeping in their beds with night gowns. Anyone involved in this, including the moronic so called magistrate that couldn't throw away the stone age retrogressive case (abeg our law gurus correct me if I am wrong) ought to be severely punished, those who are found guilty of sexually harassing these women should be thrown away in prison forever. Someone must pay for this atrocity. I am waiting for them to try sneaking in any stone age sharia law in the South East. . . I am just waiting for anything remotely similar to stone age retarded backward anti-mankind law they called sharia.

Did anyone notice that Abacha did not go this far? I guess no man is 100% good/evil. You can easily tell from the pictures most of these women are either going to work, coming home from work or simply stepping out of their homes to run a little family errand (Buy Akara for junior). It gets worse everyday. In a normal country, these morons will get their pants sued off by these women.

Knowing how the Nigerian "Police" often works, i can assure you that at least 25% of those women are not prostitutes. They just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. And even if the remaining 75% are prostitutes, so what? As long as they are not stealing from or scamming people, what's the beef?
That's the point right there. We love to ignore the substance and chase shadows. Scantily dressed women and boys in braids are now more dangerous than armed robbers and looters of public funds.
Politics › Re: Lagos Girls Versus Governor Fashola by grafikdon: 6:02pm On Aug 03, 2007
Well, those who supported the anti gay marriage bill, this is the beginning of what you're wishing for Naija. Today it is Lagos, tomorrow it could be Anambra. Armed robbers are on rampage, government officials are directing public funds, pensioners are getting fleeced from every possible angle and we think women in skimpy dresses and guys in braids are the biggest clog in the wheel of Naija progress. When people call us the most backward race we'd scream for their heads on a platter. Hypocrites are the most dangerous human beings.

Kindly be more explicit, please. You claim they did not have kings but organised councils, where the Eze came from? Isn't Eze the Igbo word for 'king'? Or am I missing something here?
Yes eze can be interpreted as 'King' but the function of 'Eze' is parallel to those of a 'King' in the right sense of the word. It is more often an insignificant title with no special privilege. An elder or a priest has the same power as the so called 'Eze',this is the reason why the so called Eze can only put his ideas on the table for debate, just like any elder,priest or member of the daughters of the soil (Umu Ada). The Igbo system of government is democratic in nature and gives no room for central power or tyranny. No man has absolute power, no man can tell others to dance to their tune. Wherever decisions that affect the community are involved, EVERYTHING has to pass through the due process of deliberation and voting. Although the council of elders and Daughters of the soil (Umu ada) are prominent in decision making, the entire community is often invited to contribute.

Igbo people have no kings in the right sense of the word, they never did, not even one community can lay claim to such, well, with the exception of Onitsha with their Obi but a close examination will reveal that even he may not be in the exact line as an actual 'King'. Their (Igbo) system of government is the same, from Igbo Ukwu to Arochukwu. Bear in mind that we are talking about 'King' in terms of function, king in the right sense and not some insignificant title given to someone with no more political power than an elder, priest, warriror, etc. The whole system went down hill (not entirely but partially) when the British imposed warrant chiefs on the Igbos; an act that sparked an outrage from people who are alien to the concept of imposing someone on them irrespective of his moral standing; someone that will control them and suppress their opinion, no matter how credible.

Igbo Enwe Eze (Igbo people have no kings) is a term derived from their system of government. This positive term term is often misinterpreted by the 'uninformed' as 'anarchy'.

Wow SMC, that comment is pretty deep. I guess in your anger you went down the same route as Aba4lyfe and Biafranboy. If you are implying it is an abomination to come from ''the same part of the world'' (Igbo) as 'losers' like 'them', I see no difference between you and the same people you are kicking in the groin. I really hope I misread your post.

@topic,

[b]These days, people just blame others for what they are doing to themselves. [/b]The bottom line is that the militants are the once executing the terror inspired by their bosses (whether indigenes or not)! There won't be kidnappings if the militants aint kidnapping nobody! It is just like blaming the politicians solely for the election rigging. It took the combined effort of the politicians and the compromised populace who sell their future for a morsel of bread to rig elections! One is dependent on the other and the two cannot be effectual exclusively!
I was going to post something but after reading this, I figured there's no need for unnecessary repetition. You hit the nail right on the head!

You didn't see any? Check your bulk mail too.

The fact that we are too smart to fall for their scams don't mean they are not trying to scam us.

Compare the amount of scam letters in your box that originate from Americans to those that emanate from Nigerians. So they are the ones who try to scam the more. The fact that they hardly succeed doesn't make them innocent.

Negroponte and his gang are pulling a scam of N18,000,000,000 with the OPLC scam format and nobody is complaining.
Bwahahahahaha! This has just made my day! I am glad someone finally pointed at what I have been screaming for ages! There's a full fledged attention on Nigeria which is so intense that we all forgot about the major scams. Denex, you forgot to mention calling card scam!

@TayoD,
It is not justice if "fairness" and "equity" are not applied.

Your seem to imply that as long as the law is applied to some members of the public, then it's all well and good regardless of the extent to which fairness and equity guide its application.

Selective application of the law should not be championed by anyone who is unbiased.
I shudder when I read some comments on this thread. You often wonder what transpire in their minds when people spew prejudice tainted comments they erroneously believe to be 'objective'. Asari Dokubo with his violent militia is set free while Uwazuruike with nothing more than 'word of mouth' is held, and people who breath and eat and drink believe he is 'lucky' to be alive? This country is full of shameless hypocrites and heavily malicious irresponsible enthusiasts. ONE NIGERIA indeed!
