God created devil from the bad side of himself and left the goid to rule the heavens before he casted the dark side of himself beneath ...out of himself created humans which have both goid nd evil and we dont have the power to cast our evil side away like our creator ....after u die u choose to leave with god or choose not to exist god wont punish you because he knows is not ur fault u couldnt do good

Hahaha, Nigeria is dog chop dog, 50million naira is small, I will prefer to loot like Obasanjo, Buhari, Abdusalami, Shagari, Babangida, Jonathan and the gang of Dasuki and his 40 thieves,

Once you loot 100billion in Nigeria, get the services of 20 SAN attorneys to drag the case for eternity, import Brazilian models to massage your body at Sheraton Abuja, be a praise singer to the Central government to curry more contract and enjoy the rest of your life, that is how it works in Nigeria.

Nigeria is not worth dying for, the politicians have proved it over and over, patriotism is an alien word in Nigeria, so I don't give a fvck, we celebrate looters and thieves in government, so I don't care, I also want to loot my share shocked
Lol...looting ur own share all the religious centres we have in this country dont preach against greed instead they partake in it...the African man is mentally lazy right from creation other race developed thier mind nd thought nd made good civilization we blacks are enjoying today.by scientific proves blacks are the oldest race and the dumest race to top it all other race sees us nothing less than animal's and we smile about it ...but if a tribe call another tribe ant it will turn s big blown war ....with ur outdated mentality u would take the billions to urselfs and let everyone suffer sometimes i wonder if nigerians ever go to church at all.we have been living on earth since creation nothing to write home about werent different from the bush men who didnt accept civilization our civilization is like a pig kept in a mantion its still remains a pig probably the britsh would have left us uncivilized let malaria get to kill most of the people who are intending to eat money when they get to power...money is not everything if i am the man who offered you the 100bill naira as soon as u take it i would send men against u to kill you and after ur death i would expose you nd i would feel no rumorse
Instead lets buils a civilization our father failed to buils lets stop looking for easy ways to make money our forefathers sold themselves from cowries easily gotten from by sailors.... Lol foolish race anyway enjoy ur billions u seek

[quote author=AreaFada2 post=71002856]Actually I do not eat regular American long white rice. It's only starch/sugar. I will eat riced milled in the village with mortar & pestle anytime. I choose brown rice, whether Basmati brown or Brown long rice. Because these taste closest to the local rice I had the chance to eat visiting the village as a kid. It turns out they are also far healthier both nutritionally and with high fibre/bran/gem content.

So we're all different. Either way, we still attach much value to imported stuff. All countries that are successful today attach much value to locally made product, even if they still import stuff. With better processing machinery, stones can be removed from locally processed rice. Why do we have all these Universities of Agriculture & Technology?[/quote

Over in spain young cows are liked and eating compare to old ones they feel the young ones have more nutrition compare to d old ones but few pple there prefer old cow...just like nigeria will eat polished rice against unpolished nd unpicked ones many are afraid of getting appendix through unpicked rice ...for our institute of agric.....nothing to write home about.... I would tell u no one will be patriotic nd go for less quality competiton brings perfection if our local product are suffering because of imported product they should all close down. i know Nigerian patronized thier good local product i just imagine if they were no competition how would our local product be

Yep we like to live above our means. And it has been catastrophic for us: normalisation of corruption, get rich quick schemes (419, yahoo plus, money rituals) and too much importation putting pressure on the Naira plus trade deficit with the West.

I doubt you claim of best economy in Africa. From my experience, Morocco has a better run economy, Tunisia too. Botswana, Namibia & South Africa are better economies too. All have well below 70 to 75% poverty rate of Nigeria. Nigeria can hardly boast of a better economy than Rwanda, Ghana or Ethiopia these days.

What Nigeria has is a large population and therefore larger economy. Nigeria will need to be around 4 to 5 times our current GDP to economically be at par with South Africa.

Large economy is not equal to best economy/low poverty/low unemployment rate. While South Africa has fairly high unemployment rate, the overall economy is good enough to afford paying jobless people unemployment benefits to live on.
You should know this is not our fault... We as human go for the best....if our market is competitive we will patronized them ...my aunt told me in Spain Moroccan product are well patronized because of their solid goods ...i wont buy the idea. Closing bothers to stop importation as it will not give our local product competition ..even with importation at high rate our local product are gab ...just imagine buying local rice and removing stones nd you can get a non stone rich at slight higher price wont you go for it...have you seen imported beans from western countries u would feel there is nothing like pest that eat beans the bottom lines is despite all this nigerians still patronized our local product life is competition not favoritism

Aside Asia/India/China/Burma/Southern China that rice originated from, West Africa has a long history of rice cultivation. So rice was not luxury for centuries when grown locally. It was in fact a staple. Though the manual nature of harvesting and processing was tedious. But baring rodents/bugs, it was easy to store for a couple of years as food for lean times too.

It became luxury when local rice cultivation reduced and imported rice became normal in cities, later in rural areas too. The polished appearance of imported rice also make it more pleasant to the eye. Though nutritionally WORSE than local manually processed rice.
Any imported thing readily becomes status symbol in Nigeria, especially if initially affordable to many.
Yes if it is well packaged and appealing to the eyes it will definetely be bought than local rice or local product we .Nigerians dont patronized imported items bcus it is imported ..we patronized bcus these items have better qualities than ours. nigeria is different set of people when you compare to other african countries we go for the best even when we still leave in high proverty with all these we still have the best economy in africa ..if nigeria improve thier qualities of product even the western people we partronize us... .

Nigerian culture and Nigeria itself was created for the benefit of England children, which they, England, has immensely benefitted from and rightfully so. Instead of ridding the land of people like Buhari and Tinubu and Okorocha, our girls are slaying on Instagram on terrible roads, our boys are spending their small change at quack clubs in the western world and on weekends it is to Redeemed and co that are not interested in serious matters.

This of course all by design, as you see the African teams in the last world cup all a disgrace, yet the Africans in France carrying the cup for FRANCE....

It gat me wondering at a time all african blacks wooped at the w.cup but black imigrant won the cuo for france almost everytime so what is the cause we are divided by culture here in nigeria dont forgot our culture is intertwined with religion
So when africans are putting anything together culture and religion are used and this is divisionism our has to go our religion.has to be limited lets fighr for oness

our Total culture should not stand due to its involvement it blood and set boundaries for marriage , socialism and all but i maintain that there is no such thing as MODERN CULTURE , we only left the parts that were not really cool practicing as the intro to WESTERN lives sunk deep into the fibre of deep roots in our culture and any tribe who refused to adjust were tagged Illiterates , backward and are cannibals... So we were bought in to western life styles that many still can't seem to fit in.
Our culture should stand but not the ones that we all know is wrong
Are we looking at western culture ..they westen people dont even know they have culture we are the ones tagging culture to them the western believe that everyday is a new life and a new culture but we believe that everyday is our old culture not forgeting this were the culture that set us outside from d rest part of the world it has caused divisionism in nigeria and africa you see the cameroons killing the english speaking camerooners u see igobs and yorubas fighting here on nairaland .why should we tagged people life style western culture when thier culture is a mixed of all culture in the world that brought thiers so is not independent to them culture has no use in modern days also with our kings if no cukture no tribal war,no divisionism no am igbo i need biafra it only reminds us how different we are instead of looking foward to more unity

Culture › Should The Nigeria Culture Stand An Why So ? by gregyboy(op): 11:37am On Aug 25, 2018
[/b]Should our culture and languages stand and why so[b]: i know many people would frown at this but as for me most of our culture shouldnt stand at all .it seems most of our modern culture as been centered around white supremacy and ethnocentrism .we also have to know that our culture is revolving around the white supremacy which all started during the colonial era when the white man looked down on africans as inferior .so there was a need to show them our culture wasnt babaric as they say.and ever since it has always been like that till it evolved to tribal supiority which we didnt have before the advent of the whitemen..secondly our culture seem to be influenced by also the same whitemen so [/b]what is african culture then[b]: apart from the religion our native clothes are all from the white .including the shoes and the our modern worship then [/b]what is really african culture to say[b]? is it the laws that says dont eat with your lefthands cause you may be eating with a spirit? .this is to say most of our culture in africa or nigeria is influenced by our traditional worship and the white men.which the religion is gradually going to extinction .thirdly our culture has brought divisionism to we as people than unity we have so many kings and so many culture with so many language inside just one country how would unity grow our culture seem beautiful outside and looks ugly inside fourthly our culture have always been the backbone for african underdevelopment from creation as the culture was intertwine with religion that limited we to think outside it ...but all of it is seem not bad some should be retained
[/b]What should be retained and what should be scrambled[b] : first of all a culture that promote unity oness should be retained this mean that all our local dialect should be eliminated as it of no use than divisionism which is displayed by nairalanders everyday with this an eastern man could go rule the north as a governor and no sentiment attach because no divisionism in culture just nigerian as a person,all our kings should be dethroned as we only have one king the president of nigeria. if the kings should stand it should be only four of the kings the oba of benin for the south ,the sultan for d north,the ooni for the west and the obi from the north the other culture that should stand is the yam festival,fishing festival,african festival which should be celebrated differnt days in the country in one day apart from this culture i say no to any other culture value system other than this

no, i dnt think outdated, i think language and culture...
U have to understand language culture supremacy were all created during struggle for independence as the white looked down on we as inhuman and inferior and tried go impose thier culture on us we opposed nd saw a reason to hold our culture esteem over time we never had this culture legacy before then we never saw
a reason to hold culture so esteem before the white Came. we even interacted within our tribes before the advent of the white but the ideology changed when they came to impose thier culture on us ...the basic truth is we still living around the white supremacist circle our culture we celebrate most of it is where influence by the white people the native atire we wear all are foreign ,the shoes we wear is from them, we worship thier gods then what is african culture persay ? .what am saying in essence our culture is not even what holding on to it only reminds us we are different nigeria is an empire now ruled by a king called president u cant have a kingdom inside an empire we striving for unity long are those days when we were edo ,yorubas ,igbos now we all are Nigerians we should strive for what is common within us not what divides us culture is no use to us anymore english united us where our language couldnt,social media brought us togeda when our kings could not so what is the essence of irrelevant culture to show supiority or divisionism or kill ourselves all over nairaland is all about igbos nd yoruba fight in one country called nigeria...it seems if u dont force Africans to see the light they wont go ....my ideology to culture in nigeria is this if it has to stand at all we should strive for what is common not what divides us. first we should only have four kings oba of benin for d south ,obi of onitsch for d east ,sultan for d north ,oni for d west and the festival day should be celebrated on a particular days should be one yam festival, fish festival,africa festival ...then all language apart from english or local english should be scrambled with this we are sure we wont fight for divisionism in yrs to come...equality brings unity,unity brings strength, strength brings power,power bring development thank you

The ability to grasp what IS spoken by some that have not being to school beats my imagination ...
languages are going extinct in Nigeria due to how hard we have sunk into English life styles just to APPEAR LITERATE AND ELITE...
Many kids can no speak their local dialect any more...
MOSTLY in AFRICA , A Japanese , an Israeli ,etc will still maintain his LOCAL dialect... They are not carried away by their colonizer`s lifestyles, neither are they sunk into the thought of meeting up in the global world , there by , neglecting what they have
I still wonder people like you still think outdately ...can you imagine ur justification for keeping language because japan and other countries kept thier lang you see it as a means to keep urs china,indian and japan are billions in pop and they still gasp to speak English ...japan has a pop more than nigeria and all over japan they speak Japanese but we here in nigeria our pop is not up to Japan but we have more language than them ..this language barrier has a been a backbone for africa development from creation we have 3,000languages inside one continent were is the unification going to come from what has the language giving us medcine or what .we have nigerian english and pidgin is that not enough you still want more .more means divisionism we are a country now not kingdom so we do best to bring unification in one language and in everything else if i was ti be d president of this country all languages would be canceled anyone who soeak outside pidgin and english is tyranny it high time we let go unimportant things like language nd culture
