Tinubu's wife God has blessed them, they don't need to steal anymore. Bandit Turji wants to negotiate. Pastor Adeboye apologized for tithes by tulasi. Atiku still running. Obi still running. All their eyes on Nigeria's foreign income. |
The African Honor System has been replaced by money first, second and third. No country or people that worshiped printed papers as a means of exchange for goods and services has ever prospered on others’ currencies they cannot print. Since there are alternate shortcuts to bypassing printed money or cash. One of the advantageous means is to increase printed money or reduce the value to cowries like Zimbabwe dollars to make their goods and services cheap. Most times we forget that money is a promissory note, not the real property or goods. Many of us would do anything for money, not our community. Some Nigerians beseech the Ukrainian Embassy to fight for Ukraine. Other Africans would die for any country but theirs. Only some love the country more than money, by any means. Obsessive love of money has killed African ingenuities. When was the last time you heard a Nigerian say he would die for his country? Who can believe that after 64 years of Independence, Nigeria cannot account for the goods, products and natural resources leaving the country because most of these are diverted to private well known sticky hands of individual kleptomaniacs. These are Cabals all over the Country that are well established but have never been held responsible for their debilitating greed that kills the Nation and most of its people. Indeed, most of them dare their fellow politicians if elected as Presidents to prosecute them! https://www.thenigerianvoice.com/news/341127/let-africa-breathe.html |
SOME BLACKS PREFER WHITE GLORIFIED SLAVERY TO THESE AFRICAN LEADERS What type of deprivation, branding or relative poverty has eaten so deep into Blackman’s psyche? So much so that in the midst of the most arable Continent flowing with diamonds, gold, uranium, oil, milk and honey; delusion and self-acculturation in and outside his community is more desirable and attractive. It goes beyond the masters of consumption but producers of very little at home. It is difficult to distinguish one cabal from the other no matter the good intention of each. While some of us empathize with Dangote's effort to produce and refine petroleum products at home, many of us also realize that he is a member of the Cabals. Tinubu, another member of the Cabals was briefly hailed when he brought the naira to about a thousand to one dollar. As soon as his fellow Cabals realized this, they dug into their Naira storage in graves and warehouses. So, even Tinubu could not control his fellow Cabals or bring them to their senses. It seems the competition has shifted to Tinubu versus Dangote on the price of refined petroleum. These two Cabals cannot settle their greed for the sake of Nigeria. There is more to this price of petroleum that has escaped the many capable hands for so many years. More Nigerians support Dangote in this competition because of Tinubu’s interest in Oando Petroleum. It has not sunk into Africans’ mentality or psyche that Africa is the only Continent left where they can throw off oppression and domination of their power and capacity. The only place where Black Wall Street can flourish without interruption. Black prosperity will always be interrupted outside of Africa where African men are part of the minorities and the least powerful. The hate is worldwide but when people that have suffered more than any other in the world engage in the same ugly behavior, they have not learned from our history. Source |
The way Igbo turned to ingrates in Lagos, no one anywhere would tolerate them. People know your history in Lagos and how you bit the fingers that fed you today. So create as many treads as you wish, your present culture in your no man's land reveals who you are. |
Lower, where is your source? |
Before liberalized market we never had to worry about dollar or pound going up or down. Only fools think they have control over money they neither print nor sell. |
Dollar devaluation, floating and Bureau du Change have taken Nigeria and the rest of developing countries to abject poverty. Those who advocated and benefited from liberalize market are few. Those who lost everything are most of us. It's like cutting off your nose to spite your face. These Youths and the elders that lead Nigeria astray cannot believe Dr. Harold Sodipo and FELA went to jail for FOREX we now used to measure the economy. |
Who is going to stop the bandits in the Northern states from destroying themselves before spreading South or vice versa. |
There is more to Power by any means necessary. It is the root of greed, ethnic violence, war and slavery. Young people that should be obsessed with peaceful discoveries and civilized ways of life are obsessed with money by rituals, violence and terrorism. Look at your village, city or State. Is it safe enough to turn the rest of the Country into. God forbid bad thing. |
Written far back then and still predictive today. |
Foreign Salvation is the wish and goal of some Africans like you. Until Nigerians save themselves, no Blackman is free anywhere in the world. Mr. Man, let me tell you. In that your Canada that you advertise as the best country in the world, even the Asians come before you as you well know. They now discriminate against you in Canada. During the days Nigerians used to get red carpet welcome in Canada and the rest of the world, the capital face of poverty were China, India and other Asian countries selling their children to eat. Abject poverty has shifted to Nigeria where the curse off surplus foreign Oil Income created arrogance, laziness, conspicuous and ostentatious spending. People like you work two or three times as hard more than you would in Nigeria. Unlike the whites, Indians and Chinese, you will lose your culture, wife and children. You dare not even protest as you would in Nigeria. Police will make means meat out of you. There used to be some Black politicians, activists and professionals that were prominent in Canada. Today, they are silent looking for daily bread. Africa, the only place a Blackman is respected. Otherwise fool yourselves all you want, you hia! DMerciful: |
The European Union made more than €53m ($58m; £45m) on rejected visa applications from African countries in 2023, according to a recent report by the Lago Collective, a think-tank that focuses on migration. |
If you are one of those people who think that our forefathers were stupid to sell gold and people into slavery for mirrors; what would our grandchildren think of us? |
Who is monitoring the truck loads of food sent to the States? Let us hope they are not the same business men hoarding food for higher prices later. |
Please educate us on how it was destroyed by Nigerian Government. |
Some Nigerians copy some Americans blindly on when democracy works. Do remember that you cannot have it both ways. In the last Election only one region voted in unison. Other regions were divided. Who is parochial? |
Thank you. It did not make sense to me or add up. If they cannot count them, they can weigh them. But in Nigeria, anything goes. Pearl1910: |

The highest Prison population in the world is our dream Japa country. Even China with the highest population does not have as many prisoners. We have to rethink our fascination with Western and Eastern democracy. Nigeria may not be the best country but better for Black men in general and Nigerians in particular. https://www.statista.com/statistics/262962/countries-with-the-most-prisoners-per-100-000-inhabitants/ |
Are these scams or failed relationships? There is no fury in hell worse than that of a scorned woman. |
Yes, Soludo printed Naira and took his cut but what we have in Nigeria are bare faced brazen looters. Even Obasanjo who was clean as a Military President, after jail and bankruptcy, he came back and took part of the national cake. Nevertheless, Obasanjo and Soludo stood out as prudent. Nobody has come close to their records in Government. |
Can anybody explain why hardened criminals, kidnappers and criminals from the Southwest do not cross over to the North and East? But all these hardened criminals operate in the West. Westerners are cowards! |
We all know how we bow down and kiss the floor once we get to U.K, America and others. Insulting your hosts did not accomplish anything in South Africa and other African countries. You dare not in any Western countries and you know the consequences in Asia. For goodness sake do the same in Nigeria for amicable results and harmony. Charity begins at home. |
There is no doubt that Nigerians know this Country is not working. It is the reason many want to Japa, even if it means from frying pan to fire. Otherwise why would anyone thinks bandits are here to stay. Every Head of State has devalued the Naira knowing it has never recovered. Even Buhari who has argued against it, devalued naira. Obi brand of cocaine is better than Tinubu cocaine. Most Nigerians worship and praise money knowing it is worthless unless you can acquire something of tangible value with it. Teachers, good and sustainable cultural norms norms have lost value. We used to report our classmates to their parents until parents started asking: sey nah your money e steal. Government money is nobody's money. What aboutism, mind your business and my devil is better than yours. Consequently, Nigeria sinks deeper and races to the bottom as the poverty capital of the world. Who knew that avalanche of foreign Oil Income can make you poor! |
Ani nah lie? There good competent leaders in Nigeria but they will never get PAWA! Nigerians prefer you chop I chop. You chop alone, you die alone. These selfish generation just want to make foreign money in Nigeria so that they can spend it on foreign goods abroad. |
Nigerians have a single reason for the backwardness of their country: Leadership. You would think the leaderships are aliens forced on them or colonial powers from Europe and America. The leaderships come from their family members, relatives and friends that cannot wait to get their hands on the National Cake and wickedly impoverish their own people in exchange for pottage. Euphoria of billions in fools paradise. |
My fear is this will die down soon obscure by ethnic bashing and our brand of cocaine is better than yours. Is it not surprising that the suggestion of a real professor of economics that law makers should make minimum wage died down. Better still, make their jobs part-time based on when they need to meet. Government jobs crowd out private salaries and efficiency. We must face our devils at home in a country still flowing with honey and war after all the years of looting. jara: |
When the law makers realize their outrageous salary contributes to inflation and willing to cut them to median wage, nothing will happen. Do the maths, how much of political office holder is left if they pay even 70k minimum wage |
Eye high service. Nothing can separate Nigerians from their euro and American dollars. |
Sadly, I agree with you. I was shocked that any country in Africa would put a Nigerian President on the second row. But Tinubu and Obi are soiled as former drug peddlers. Even Atiku has a case of money laundering to answer in the States. Which country in their right mind would put these 3 forward as Presidential candidates. Except the one we are waiting for in November. zomby: |
How is your vicious attack related to what he says. It is now a sin to defend or opine that Abuja and Lagos should also be affordable to Nigerians, not only foreigners? Helineus is right, Africa is cheap and has been cheap for foreigners so that they can buy you cheaply since slave trade. By the way, Heneous should not have defended Tinubu Devaluation. Most African leaders have been indoctrinated, in the selfish interest of both sides, that Devaluation and Foreign Investment is the cure for African countries' economic problems. That is buy us cheap. When America borrows, they do it in their currency and they can print as much as they want to pay back. ShogunNoName: |
