CAN we are waiting for you to follow suit.

For any one to live a fulfilling life, you 've got to get physically active doing one job or the other, apart from that every other means of survival is fraudulent and corney means of survival. Even God said before we eat that we must till the ground.

What literally happens is: them politicians, oil company workers and civil servants who don't get physically working, who depends on printing papers (money) for survival.
They involve the Western world who drills oil and give them paper (dollar) as a medium of exchange, them politicians, oil company workers and civil servants in return shares the dollar among themselves and their after they will use the dollar and import food, shelter and some other things they need, even they will also use the money to pay their children's school fees abroad hence they no longer care about me and you, hence they will no longer care about Nigeria since their source of income is not from here.

Nigerians are suppose to pray for oil price to crash so that them politicians will be striped of that privilege and get physically working and serious since their won't be any dollar coming again.
With these they will invest here and settle down else you guys should just stop crying with them when things are failing them. (Oil price crash)

Good development. Any thing that will make Nigerians get serious and mind their business to me is welcomed.

Oga that is wrong. Our economy did not perform better. Their own performed worst.
It is just like being the 'dundy' or the dullard of the class and carrying the last position in your class for a long period of time only for the next term a student comes and performs poorly than you and so carries last while you become second to last.

You just use the new student shine. Your new position is not as a result of hardwork but as a result of the new student's poorer performance.

SA performed poorly than us.... But we are still performing poorly.

Moreover, what is the use of our new position when it does not reflect on the living situations of the populace.
Despite how things are with SA now, their standard of living is still way better than us.
Learn to be objective in your submissions and stop being sentimental. That is the only way to progress in life.

if you want to be realistic then you should also consider the fact that since 2017 South African's economy has been on downward slope while that of Nigeria's kept upward growth, hence Nigeria need to celebrate for more brighter economic future regardless of both Country's past or feature.

Sometimes we say something and do something else, maybe by mistake. action they say speaks louder than words.

Let's use Nigeria as a case study, there are people in this country that, whatsoever they want from the government it will only take phone call or letter and it will be granted, while in the other hand there are majority who have benefited nothing from the government and from the society.

These people who has never benefited anything, neither are they engaged atleast in a job with job security.
Most of them are not sure if they can last for atleast 4 years in the job they are doing.
And we may live here on earth for up to 70 or 80 years old. The question is how do you alone survive here on earth with all these problems that we are faced daily?, Since you know the road is not smooth, now talk more to bring innocent kids here again in this situation.

Don't you think it will be more wiser for any reasonable person to endure this earth, have little fun you can and exit without subjecting your supposed loved kids to even more hasher environment than you suffered.
What exactly are you bringing kids here for? Forget about what you were told about replacing yourself, you can't replace yourself in misery rather in a more better position. Think about this before you go into marriage in misery and hardship at the end you may end up creating more serious problems.

Most of the problems facing this country Nigeria are caused by these silent killer "government officials" from their non challant behavior to being rude e.t.c, if they don't change their is still going to be problems everywhere in this country.

I wish they realize this and change without looking for excuses.

But as op said, the Hausa traders don't exploit it and "still buy food from them everyday despite the fact that free food awaits them at the end of the day", which is very commendable of them.

that's exactly what I meant. Thanks

delishpot:
How is that ridiculous and laughable? World people šef.

people can capitalize on that for survival if you dont know

I was opportuned to stay close to Hausa petty traders. While I was around them I observed a ridiculous habit that's laughable.

These group of Hausa petty traders sells at nite and they have some women who brings food for sale at night while they are doing their business.
The funny thing is this women are going to share whatsoever quantity of food left among the traders everyday before they go back home, no matter the quantity remaining it must be shared but not compulsory.

I observed that this can't happen else where because the traders would be waiting for these women's closing time to get free food instead of buying food, but the Hausa traders still buy food from them everyday despite the fact that free food awaits them at the end of the day.
To me this is strange and is still going on.

Let's hear from Amatekun they should also tell us if they can help out here. We need peace in Nigeria

I don't know how to thank Mr President, Nigeria is now a great place to be. Good news keep flooding from both left, right and centre.

Majority of us wished we were not born in Nigeria but for the past 6 months now I can gladly see that God wanted the best for me by choosing a great country Nigeria for me, all these was made possible by or through the relentless efforts of our amiable president Mr Mohammadu Buhari.
All I can say is thank you Mr President, I/we reasonable Nigerian citizens can now feel at home instead of looking for which country we should emigrate to as was the case. Thank you sir!
By a glad Nigerian

adanny01:
We have 24hx30days in a month to make 720h assuming you have light 24/7. Every area has its monthly average which they use to calculate the estimated bill.

Turantula:
I heard that they (IPOBIANS) attacked Adamawa yesterday

Hahahahahaha

Area4Area:
It is people like you that I blame for it, IPOB miscreants are nobodies who just love the noise and hype and you people start taking them serious.
Ask them why Kanu couldn't come to his parents' burial after all the threats and promises?

Hahahahahaha lol
Thank you bro for that question

Okoroawusa:
My dear the rate at which they have over ran Nairaland is very alarming these days. Back to back posts on Buhari,U.S, Muslims n Nnamdi Kanu... Half of the posts on FP of the politics section belongs to them.

I know they said they want to tanish Nigeria's image on social media

These people are on the loose causing tensions, creating unnecessary propagandas but what I want to let them know is that Nigeria is too big to be derailed by few posts on Nairaland if that's what they think.
Just drop that phone step outside and see if anyone heard or saw your opinion in reality or even in your street. If you reply me here with hash words you just did that to only one person among 200 million people so stop deceiving yourselves.

NOTE: I DON'T HATE NIGERIA I ONLY WANT TO STATE THE REALITY HERE.

Nigeria is a good country blessed with everything a great nation should have, our major problem is Nigerians, when I say "Nigerians" I mean middle and lower class only. Nigerian elites don't have any problem.

The problem started because our elites are in hiding, I don't know if it's for security reasons or what? I don't know.
Example, the elites do things proper but always in secrets, their mode of worshipping God, the friends they keep, places they go to, the type of people they associate with. Usually their fellow educated personalities.

That led to the middle and lower class don't see them frequently and was not opportune to learn from them how things should be done. hence their is problem in our street life.
Finally we are here on the street of Nigeria!, here people behave like they are mostly in sane and they are not aware of this including the people they call graduates.

They don't know what being a graduate looks like, they don't know what is called travelling, they don't know what is called being in church service, they don't know what is called being a business man/woman and finally they don't know what is called being at work.

THINGS THEY KNOW
(1) BEING A GRADUATE TO THEM: to them a graduate is someone or group of people among them who has spent 4 years or more in one of the Nigerian public universities and is finally Fred. With or without any idea of what being creative or being intelligent is all about. Go to Twitter and observe the things some of their graduates serving one year national service do (NYSC)

(2) THINGS THEY KNOW ABOUT TRAVELLIN MAYBE IN STYLE: to them traveling is when you board 150 seater bus with 40 people standing and the bus is loaded with food stuff for 7 hours journey with the temperature of 39 degree where some will be making loud calls, some are praying, some are playing loud music from their phone, others will be sleeping while others are calling for calm.

(3) WHAT THEY KNOW ABOUT BEING A BUSINESSMAN/WOMAN: to them being a business man or woman is when you construct 3by3 container or get an umbrella with a capital of less than 40 dollar, then you employ someone to sit under the sun and they become the boss and blame you for every woes that the business will encounter since you are the manager and they are the investors.

What about their mode of dressing e.t.c......., discussion for another day.
Because of all these I would rather advice any foreigner coming to Nigeria to please stay as our elite or please don't come to our street else you will go in sane. Please don't ignore this, here is not a conducive place to stay if you want to maintain good mental health.
This is my advice and contributions thanks

Fake propaganda.from a fool

Where is your source of information OP?

This is true but the Almajiris in your mist caused all these bruhahas. Hausas are very good people

Truth is bitter! We don't trust Igbo's not only about restructuring.

Useless post

Let's go back to 1980's when primary school head masters used to go withdraw money for all the teachers, at then criminals usually would kill them and loot entire teachers salaries now that is no longer possible.

We also got to another stage where banks were at criminals mercy. Then they were being robbed in numbers. we also passed that stage.

We entered another stage where thieves was always attacking travellers because some of them business men and women where carrying huge cash. that also passed.

We entered another stage where Militancy was a lucrative business, you can form a group get a top politician who will help you negotiate with government to pay you so that you will drop your gun. That we also won.

Finally we are at a final stage where kidnappers are having their field day just because their phones numbers are not yet linked to their I.D. iam very optimistic that as soon as that is done criminalism will be a thing of the past. Thanks

No dance too much o b4 them go use your picture do meme for nairaland o

Blue3k:
Lol you're dodging my question now. I dont know, they should be doing that already. I'm guessing because the forest is big and scorched earth policy would be ineffective. As I read they stay closer to the hills and madara mountain range. They wouldn't be easily surrounded or killed off.

about your question if I say I'm ready you won't believe it.

Blue3k:
Lol are suggesting Nigeria institute a draft? The hunters that want to combat boko haram are already doing so. If you're keen on them instituting one dont run if you're selected.

so why can't they set that bush ablaze and wait for the fleeing terrorist?

princemillla:
Wat do u think befor ? Go and ask dasuki and all other overnite billiionaire.

I dey here dey suggest solutions for their stupidity. Thank you bro

princemillla:
No waste ur time and Mb.
Our govt knows best way to wipe them out within 1hr but they are busy looting

They are probably using Boko Haram as an avenue to divert funds and attention.

Citytrend:
Forget it the no body is thinking of Getting rid of Boko Haram. I confirmed that after 1400 Sec members were released without any exchange or dialogue

that's the truth so they should stop complaining about Boko Haram
