First and foremost, Nigerian youths are not lazy nor are they lying down in their father's houses as Professor Wole Soyinka would have you believe.
When I hear the older generation talk, it angers me because they are the cause of what the Nigerian youths are facing today!
Obasanjo, Ojukwu et al are contemporaries from an eon where their father's where not educated. Assuming they those in the military then got some form of formal education.
They were the pioneers of what we have today: a failed society.
When we talk about the fall of man we blame Adam.
So why the hell aren't you guys ashamed to pass the blame down to us when you guys started:
1. the corruption we now face.
2. Started a civil war.
3. Took from all the Igbos and gave them 1pound irrespective of what they had in their bank account.
4. Still won't leave power.
5. Shameless even at old age.
6. A terrible role model.
7. They went to better schools, where they were fed, taught by foreigners, etc.
8. They now are our lecturers, yet most of them are half illiterates.

Your generation sir was the worst and not mine.
The roads(figuratively) we walk on today, were built by your generation.

You people should clean up your mess and not blame your children.

The patriots you talked about who did things: Azikiwe, Okotie-Eboh, Buhari, et al, helped build a country they should have torn apart cause when I see patroit these days
I see IPOB members who stood and were shot at and died for a cause they believed in.
I see an Nnamdi Kanu who fearless came to Nigeria and was arrested and kept without trail until now by one of the patriots you mentioned.
These people are no patriots of Nigeria.
But in Biafra, where they come from, they are.
So don't talk of young people doing nothing. They are, but just not in the way you imagined it.

As Chinua Achebe would say, "there was a country: Biafra".

I have said my lot.
Clean up your mess, hypocrites!

In an article that has gone viral around the world, titled ‘Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari Dupes the US’, Bruce Fein criticized Nigeria’s leader for “uttering time-worn democracy vows” during his visit to the US, where he promised “to combat graft with procedures that would be “fair, just, and scrupulously follow due process and the rule of law, as enshrined in our constitution.”

It said, “After celebrating fairness, due process, and the rule of law last July to win the goodwill of the United States, Mr. Buhari returned to Nigeria to mock all three in a vendetta against Dasuki, the immediate past National Security Adviser.

“He placed Mr. Dasuki under house arrest. He confiscated his passport. He charged him with firearms and money laundering violations. He sought a secret trial to prevent independent scrutiny.

“He opposed Mr. Dasuki’s pretrial application to the Federal High Court sitting in Abuja for permission to receive urgent medical treatment for cancer in London, but it was nonetheless granted.

“Justice Adeniyi Ademola explained that an accused is presumed innocent before trial, and that a citizen’s health is paramount before the law. Mr. Buhari was ordered to release Mr. Dasuki’s international passport.

“Mr. Buhari defied the order. He put Mr. Dasuki’s house under siege, a microcosm of the Bosnian Serb siege of Sarajevo. Mr. Dasuki returned to court. Justice Ademola reaffirmed his order, asserting “My own orders will not be flouted.”

“Mr. Buhari has not yet budged. As a military dictator in 1985, he similarly seized the international passport of Chief Obafemi Awolowo to thwart his travel for medical treatment, which caused his death in 1987. The more things change, the more they stay the same.”

Calling Dasuki’s situation an “ongoing persecution,” Fein noted disparagingly that “Members of Nigeria’s National Assembly and Senate have been reduced to playing the roles of extras in cinematic extravaganzas.”

Recalling some of the low points of the Buhari military regime in the ‘80s, the publication said the era “was earmarked by chilling human rights abuses,” which it said included, “draconian edicts, exemplified by Decree 20 under which the judicial murders of Nigerian citizens Lawal Ojuolape, Bernard Ogedengbe, and Bartholomew Owoh were authorized.”

It noted that Ogedengbe was executed for a crime that did not carry the death penalty at the time it was committed in violation of the universal revulsion of EXpost facto laws.

Quoting Nobel Prize laureate Wole Soyinka, the article said “these crimes were executed in defiance of pleas from virtually every sector of Nigeria and the international community—a grisly precedent for subsequent dictator Sani Abacha’s hanging of Ogoni activist Ken Saro-Wiwa in contempt of international opinion.”

It further noted that Buhari’s brutal military dictatorship was overthrown in 1985, adding, “Mr. Dasuki played a key role. Dictators do not forget. Fast forward to today.”

According to Fein, “if Mr. Buhari flouts Justice Ademola’s order with impunity, judicial independence will be fatally compromised and Nigeria’s embryonic democratic dispensation will be stillborn.”

“The judiciary is the only branch capable of checking limitless executive power—the bane of Africa.”

Fein such actions could work against peaceful transfer of political power on the continent as incumbents would be afraid of being persecuted by their successors.

“President Goodluck Jonathan’s administration accepted a peaceful transfer of power to President Buhari, a laudable landmark in African politics.

“If Mr. Buhari is permitted with impunity to destroy his political opponents like Mr. Dasuki with tyrannical methods, peaceful transfers of power everywhere on the Continent will become problematic. “If Mr. Buhari is permitted with impunity to destroy his political opponents like Mr. Dasuki with tyrannical methods, peaceful transfers of power everywhere on the Continent will become problematic. The incumbents’ risk of political and personal impalement at the hands of their would-be successors will be too high.”

The article concluded by urging the United States to insist on independent human rights observers to monitor Dasuki’s prosecution and trial, and a demand that President Buhari honours his vow to follow due process and the rule of law.

“The stakes are too high to remain silent,” it added.

It's opinion but sometimes instead of being abusive advice the person constructively.
It does no one good that a member of our society is cursed to 'amount to nothing'.

I know you are thinking that you are having fun and maybe you obtain some weird form of excitement opening this sort of threads about this girl, but I"ll tell you what, you are nothing but a pathetic fool. You know why, because in real life you can't stand up to her, so you come online creating all sorts of demeaning threads about her.

You are nothing but a worthless piece of trash. You are a hopeless, miserable idiot_ who has never and will never amount to anything in real life, so he comes online to gain some sort of relevance.

People like you should be substituted for those innocent lives who perish everyday in the north. You know why? Your existence is a total waste. Your filthy life doesn't serve any useful purpose to humanities cause, and I say this with all sincerity, that I wish you'd die now, and save the world the burden of seeing you alive.

Looks like UST

Pardon, but, what is UST?

This sought thing happened in Mexico. A place that that had no volcanic history all of a sudden became a volcanic site.
We should get geologists like myself there to check this theory out. If I'm right it could save some lives.
This is not a joke oh

I think the rock might be sitting on a son to be active volcano.
Sister nature, what are you planning?
Come to think of it.
