Are you meant to tell me that Haiti was relatively developed before 1915? can you really say that?

Yes before 1915 Haiti was the wealthiest and most flourishing of all islands in the Caribbean. Do your researchs, talk to historians. And there is nothing wrong with the black gene, this is just a european propaganda. We have to fight against the lies and ignorance created by the european which keep the minds of African people imprisoned and their spiritual strength weak. To make it plainer, the only revolution the African masses can win at this time is a mental and spiritual revolution, which will put the African masses in mental and spiritual power. Then they will have the power to do anything else that may be necessary for complete liberation and well being.

Imagine Haiti which gained independence in 1804, after over 200 years is still a poor country, infact haiti is the poorest country in the western hemisphere. What is indeed wrong with the black race?

Between 1804 and 1915, Haiti was one of the richest country in the western hemisphere before the American invasion and occupation of Haiti (1915-1934).  The Americans after killing more than 12.000 haitians liquidated the National Bank of Haiti, imposed forced labor on much of the population and prohibited Blacks from entering hotels and restaurants. With the pretext of protecting the Haitian gold reserves, they carried 100% of the gold off to strong boxes in New York. And you blame "The Black Gene" for this situation in Haiti?

The United Nations has never denied the report.

And? The UN backed the french army and it the french soldiers that you see on the video killing the innocents who supported Gbago in front of Hotel Ivoire. Did you saw the video of the massacre on youtube?, yes or no?
I dont support any of the 2 presidents, but people have to know that it is the Licorne (frenchs) who killed the supporters.

They were not opposition supporters they were protecting Gbagbo against the french. There is a video on youtube about this massacre. It is the french army (La Licorne) who massacred the protesters. And I never said that the massacre have something to do with the air raid. Your so called report is in fact coming from the french media who got it from the french army report "version", those that massacred the protestors who supported Gbago.

At the time, the French and the World were on Gbagbo's side. You guy's shouldn't make a despot look the victim.
When Gbagbo fled into exile in the past, it was to France too.

It is worth reading up a bit on Ivorian history and then you'll see that Gbagbo has always been highly controversial. In the past, he has knocked out Ouatarra with the claim that the majority of Northerners (including Ouatarra) are not Ivorian enough to vote or participate in elections. Thats the Ivorian version of apartheid for you.

Get your fact right. The french army (La Licorne) massacred 120 Pro-Gbagbo peacefull protesters. It was an anti-french protest. The protesters were in front of the Hotel Ivoire in Abidjan to suport and protect Gbagbo because the french army wanted to attack the presidential palace, and the french suffered a deadly air raid from the Ivorian Air Force (9 dead and 34 wounded).

Ouattara is backed by french President Sarkosy and we have to remember that the French Army opened fire and killed 120 Ivorian citizens attempting a peaceful protest in Abidjan on 25-26 March 2004.

A statue made of basalt, of the earliest known Egyptian found, showed him with a beard and a short kilt covering his private parts. The remarkable thing about this statue is, it looks like one of the male servants of the Benin culture’s statues, of West Africa, proving again they are all the same family. I say that because, everytime you look in an encyclopedia, you’ll find they never mention Egypt with Africa, as if it is not part of the African continent. How racist and ridiculous in this time.

If Nigeria want to be more advanced in the next five years, Nigeria government needs to increase its investment in education today.

Bribery of foreign government officials by companies is a federal offense in the US. If the evidence is solid this could result in big problems for D. Cheney.

I agree with the ban. Laptops that have been used usually extensively have trouble booting, and may have dead pixels on the screen. Excessively long boot times require an investigation into your laptop.

Will they stop and park indiscriminately while picking or discharging passengers?

Lagos need at least 500.000 new homes over the next decade.

I support this new law. How can you respect your nation when you don’t respect your national anthem?

excanny:
Should Nigeria copy the democratic processes of other countries or develop our own type?

Develop our own type.

Kobojunkie:
Does Lagos really need 100 metres high buildings? You are told it is about the most populated city in Africa and you want buildings 100 metres high? Is that what is needed to help ensure the population is taken care of?

Yes Lagos need 100 metres high rise building, it will save a lot of space of land.

Despite being one of the largest cities in Africa, Lagos is yet to have a single building over 100 metres in height.

ROSSIKE:
Nigerian Economy Enjoying ''Exceptionally High Growth Rate'', says IMF

Good news.

Do you think this situation is comparable to the "brain drain" issue

Yes, it is.

Edenitis:
Nuclear power is not the way for us. It will expose us and our neighbours to very serious dangers. We are lumbered with unpatriotic leaders who are ready to sell the nation for their personal gains.

And can you imagine when corrupt leaders will decide to sell nuclear waste to rogue states or terrorists for their personal gain. Can you imagine a truck bomb containing stockpiles of nuclear waste crashing into a building. So far nuclear waste has been dumped into the sea of third world countries like Somalia.

1- South Africa need to get rid of the "Economic Apartheid" first.
2- Nigeria need to fight corruption first.

What we have seen over the past few years is a gradual increase in the number of Nigerian professionals based abroad returning home to work. For these Nigerian professionals, there is an increasing awareness of the extraordinary opportunities in Nigeria’s booming economy.

Sahara Reporters was unprofessional and immature.

Nigerians have the right to create an anti-nuclear movement to prevent nuclear power plants from being constructed in their backyard.

Stop wasting your Money on pilgrimage. One of my muslim friend traveled throughout the Middle East and North Africa; he shared with me with sadness how dark skinned Africans were treated negative in Mecca , Saudi Arabia during Hajj. Islam has become more Arabism than Islam, but most Africans Muslims want to overlook the Arab racism in Islam. In Islam you will always find the dark skinned Africans people subservient to the Arab light skinned ruling class.

With lagos rapid growing population, lagos should have taller skyscrapers if not they will have land vs pollulation problems in the future.

We still dont know where will you store your nuclear waste?

Given that radioactivity from nuclear waste can directly impacts Nigerian citizens' health, it becomes a fundamental right of Nigerians to know what risks such activities pose to them. If there are dumping sites in Nigeria near a population centre, the activity can seep into ground water and make it unusable. If the leaching ponds containing the effluents of a milling and leaching plant are not covered in water, the dumped waste can dry up and gets blown all over by winds. Nobody in the world, nobody, knows what to do with this nuclear waste. Hundreds of thousands of tons of this American nuclear waste is just lying in protective enclosures around the world. Nobody has found a safe way to dispose off this waste. Reactor accidents of the kind of Chernobyl can spew a large amount of such waste into the environment over thousands of square kilometers around the accident site, causing extensive loss of life and agriculture.
