/ All I know is that the best part of Nigeria is below the average of most developed cities in the world. The issue of electricity is enough to knock it down to the level of Mali. If you fly into Shanghai or Hong Kong at night, you may think you are out of this planet. Abuja and Lagos are beautiful. But it will take three days after flying into the country for one's eyes to reset and start appreciating whatever makes them worthwhile. / |
Smitaro100:/ They had easy life growing up and take thing for granted. Who dare correct them while growing up as overpampered oga's only son? Spare the rod and spoil the child. But then, that's not the reason to be hygienically challenged. / |
/ Why try to save those who don't want to be saved? Does it look like Nigerians care about their well-being? They see politics as English Premier league a la our team vs their team (Arsenal vs Man Utd) instead of focusing on their interests. So why bother? When the governor arrives Kebbi, they will throng out to welcome him in jubilation. A country where someone will drive the bad roads from Auchi- Abuja, survive threats of kidnappers, arrive Abuja only to announce that APC government is doing a wonderful job. How can anyone feel for such people? / |
/ Davido has generational network and wealth to fall back on. The persons he should be talking about are Burna Boy and Whizkid who refuse to take cues from big celebrities before them that spent recklessly and ended up badly. John Fashanu and Victor Ikpeba in their heydays spent as if money is an infinite resources. Time changed and they couldn't believe what hit them. / |
/ Nigeria is where poor people gather to celebrate that their pastor bought a private jet Just go with the flow. Trying to understand the mindset of Nigerians is an impossible task./ |
/ Some things are difficult to believe. But then, if someone has told you that Ozonna is "Professor" Soludo's son, who would have believed? We live in weird times indeed. / |
Scarrr:/ Whether no Chukwudi nor Okeke, one glaring fact is that your family or anyone remotely connected to you is not on the list. ![]() / |
datola:/ It is because you think that money is just banknotes. Those who invented the monetary system will listen to your explanation and smile in disbelief. You are thinking like a peasant--the kind who don't understand how a man that lives in a mansion and flies private jet as a CEO only earns $1 salary. / |
/ It is an exercise in futility if the insecurity in Imo State is not addressed first. Owerri is a ghost of itself. Even the governor is on exile in Abuja. Who dares to visit for fun? / |
/ A graduate is understood to mean someone who finished from a university. Nigerians must over abuse every little opportunity. How did graduation become such a hot topic? / |
/ It looks like rebranded 2015 iPhone 6s. ![]() So they went back to one lens and one flash. / |
/ The vast majority of them are online being unproductive roaming from one blog to the other to read gossip news. At the end of the day, all that sleep deprivation with nothing to show for it. SMH. This is the best era ever to make money easily. / |
/ Buying many luxury cars vs. Spending on many women are two sides of the same coin. People only realize it when they get older. Both expeditions are for temporary sense of fulfillment but hold no value in long-term. The downfall of famous ex-multimillionaires like ex-footballers was lavishing money on multiple luxurious cars and multiple women. Double whammy! / |
/ Hate them or love them...this is the time people would appreciate officers like young IBB and Abacha. Capt Ibrahim Traore comes to mind. / |
Baawaa:/ This is Nigeria. If you are in the country, it is not a matter of if but when. You will be a victim one day. You can tell us how funny it is then. Evidently, japa syndrome gave opportunity for reasonable and intelligent ones to escape leaving the country for folks like you. Enjoy it. Any day now...Nigeria will happen to you. / |
/ Thousands of them would rather be free food for shacks in the ocean than stand up to one man in government. The minds of Africans should be a course in many universities. It may seem that the primary purpose of their existence is to grow to flee to leech. / |
/ 8 NSCDC personnel escorting 1 Chinese? / |
/ The explanation lacks logic. / |
/ Inquisitive mind will like to know how many days of fasting and prayers that Neymar did for unmerited favour while those beckoning for ulcer in Nigeria with fasting/prayers are still drinking garri. Please don't tell us that his skills opened the door for this favour. / |
BucketHat:/ That's how it is done. But in Nigeria, everything is upside down. Property agents are for sale of lands and properties...not for renting apartments. Everything is online. / |
/ There is no need to ban agents but the system must be sanitized. The government should come out with the percentage that they must adhere to or quit. For years now, they arbitrarily place unnecessary fees unchallenged. How can agent and lawyer fees be 20%? Ridiculous! I must admit. Agents' fees shouldn't be more than 5%. / |
/ That Igbo people developed Asaba instead of their homeland should be a shameful thing instead of a bragging right. It is like a man who expects accolades for doing giveaways online but can't feed his family. People are rushing to Israel because they developed the little landmass they have to attract migrants. If they like, let them leave Igbo land desolate and turn the neighboring states to Dubai...when push comes to shove, they will be victims ---not that they are not good at being professional victims already. / |
/ There is no reason a healthy African adult should not have children. India and China like many other countries copied the Western style and technology but retained their own culture strictly. Nigerians embraced Western culture as perfection and copied the culture (including the most ridiculous that they hate) and abandoned the technology. Technology? Yep! Nigerians are part of the end-users only. / |
/ Trump is the President. There is no more threat from USA against countries that ban homosexuality. Democrats took morality in the public space to the lows. How can someone identify as a true christian and subscribe to the tenets of Democrats? I get it. Lobbying funds at work to promote ideologies to gullible people who stand for nothing if their palms are greased right or freebies (side eyes Nigerians) /grants are offered. / |
/ The same excessive taxation that made USA seceed from Europe. The same excessive taxation that sent Kenyans to the streets. Like Amechi said, "Nigerians don't react to anything. They will only grumble silently and move on in pain". They should make it 15%. / |
/ Fake news! Nigeria is the most intelligent messed up country in the world filled with "cram and vomit" intelligentia. The IQ test shouldn't be the criteria to measure intelligence because it involves critical thinking --a kryptonite to most educated Nigerians. / |
/ Politicians can say whatever no matter how absurd. They understand that the majority of the citizens are morons anyways. So what difference does it make? Whether they accept naira or not, the Chinese yuan is still pegged to US dollar. / |
/ I don't understand why any educated individual will be poor in Africa (especially Nigeria and Ghana) when there are a million and one way to get free money from the gullible citizens. Any one can replicate this "miracle" in his backyard, set up an altar and cash out. A bottle of such water will be N10k. But make sure your sumo pump is strong enough to work for years. Omotosho Fufeyin is cashing out every day. / |
/ Even if they find the mural of Yeshua in Abeokuta, of what benefit is it to anyone in Nigeria? Religion of any kind ain't solving any of the problems bedeviling Nigeria. / |
/ Trend-chasers. Na so people rush go buy Hummer H2 those years until reality set in. / |

Just go with the flow. Trying to understand the mindset of Nigerians is an impossible task.
