A pity for the old man

Laughable...you guys don't know the meaning of invasion

alanto:
If you need the face of ingrate it’s you igbo people. I don’t understand how you can hate Tinubu that made Lagos that is your only destination in life to make it.

Even Yoruba Zombies are mentioning Tinubu their god in a thread that is talking about looting governor. You guys are even confused in the de-marketing of Tinubu. Abi na so una Buhari take win 2015

I stopped reading your trash here.

This statement shows you are a completely brainwashed dunce with nothing upstairs.

Are you aware that Nigeria's FIRST power plant was Kainji Dam, commissioned by the Tafawa Balewa administration in 1964?

Prior to that, your white gods imported industrial generators to power Ikoyi and the various GRAs where their fellow whites were staying.

The rest of Nigeria used candles and lamps till independence. They couldn't even use generators because there was no national grid. No wiring, and no knowledge of wiring.

The whites built not ONE full fledged university in their 80 year rule.

Today, courtesy of black rule, we have 200+ universities.

Literacy rate was 5% at independence.

Today it is 75% and rising, courtesy of black rule.

In 1960, no road led to your village. You had to park at the nearest road and then walk on footpaths, sometimes for days, before reaching your village.

Today, courtesy of black rule, everywhere, including the most remote hamlet, has been opened up to vehicular traffic.

Until you dumb, stupid Nigerian slaves stop worshiping your white colonial oppressors and learn to respect and appreciate your own selves and the progress you've made, you will continue being the laughing stock of the entire universe.

And you actually think that you made sense more than the OP? Just posit that your level of intelligence is well below par to comprehend his line of thought instead of sounding didactic and fooling yourself. I think you're among those incapable of comprehension when issues that demand intellect are discussed: the very type of people the OP alluded to. All the mundane things you mentioned are not "real progress" in the REAL sense because they're nothing compared to what the whitemen are capable of accomplishing if their trend and standard was maintained by native rulers. Do you think this country wouldn't be like Europe/far East Asia/North America if the Europeans were still in charge? In 80 years, you're counting universities, turbines for electricity and sub-standard roads built all across the place as progress. Are you aware that having sub-standard universities all over the place that your government barely fund is no progress? Are you aware that I cannot even present a LoC from your Nigerian bank to many banks abroad? Progress indeed. You Nigerians sef. The OP is very right. You people are so used to mediocrity that you move in circles believing you're going somewhere.

Only 700 million? That's just about 35 million each.

with the way ESN and UGM are going about the struggle, people will be forced to sit at home

Very unlikely.

I think corruption and cheating is a consequence of erosion of traditional African kinship system with its values.

You see, corruption isn't just police, NEPA, Immigration and Custom thing, even nurses, sales people, store-keepers and more can be untrustworthy. Which profession has the most dishonest people from your experience?
