Nigeria charters jumbo jet to evacuate her citizens from Egypt as the North African nation descends into anarchy:

lol. The way she dodges questions, she reminds me of some of those Naija politicians she so much loves to criticize.

In fact the parallels are quite stunning.

Kobojunkie, you're very good at blowing grammar, but not very good at answering posers put to you.

But nuttin spoil.

^^^ Again, get back to discussing the issue the thread was created for.

Another way of saying that everything I've written about you is correct, and you've no words to counter them.

Thanks for the admission.

seyibrown, that someone can walk up to you and purport to tell you ''God's will'', or hand you a book he claims contains ''God's will'', is testament to the gullibility and foolhardiness of the human mind.

Pray, do you suppose it is too hard a task for an all-powerful God to actually transmit ''His will'' directly into your head if he wanted you to know it?

WHY would He need any ''prophet'' or ''pastor'', or any ''holy book'' to help him do this?

Do you see you are being lied to and deceived by people who want your mind and your pocket?

Still managed to put Jewish names in it. What a joke!

He can't help himself.

It's as if he doesn't feel he has called God appropriately and fully until and unless he includes the names of  some pre-historic Jews in the mix.

It's really sad to see what these Oyibos have done to Africans.

Kobojunkie said:

^^^^ Whitey? Again on this thread? They are Egyptians

If they are lighter than blacks, they're good enough for YOU.

If you can however argue your point without needing to inject your personal insecurities into the debate, you would know this and move on to discuss the topic as is.

Nice Try. But YOU have shown ALL the ''personal insecurities'' here. You are very ''personally insecure'' about anything to do with Nigerians or black Africans, and have shown that over and over and over and over again on NL.

Ok, to prove me wrong, can you name me three things the Egyptians can learn from Nigerians?

Kobojunkie said:

^^^ I don't answer silly questions! You must have noticed that by now.

Not sure why you consider it silly. You're either hooked up with whitey or you're not.

I asked because you are ALWAYS on the side of whitey in any debate.

Perhaps you're a bodyguard to some Caucasian tycoon?

A professional ''escort'' perhaps?

I notice you didn't answer the question.

Kobojunkie said:

If that works to pacify you and make you feel good about the Nigerian situation, then fine

We know you look for everything to make you feel bad about the Nigerian situation.

Are you married to a white man or Arab btw?

You seem to have bucketloads of love and admiration for them, and none for your own people.

Kobojunkie said:

Well, at least you finally admit we have NEVER had this happen in Nigeria. All I ask is we not pretend that we have done this before. We can come up with excuses as usual but the fact is Nigerians have NEVER in their history matched en masse in the same way these Egyptians or the Tunisians have in the last month.

How about THIS ''excuse'', Madam Senseless, ie that NIGERIANS HAVE NEVER BEEN RULED BY AN IRON FISTED, MURDEROUS DICTATOR FOR 30 YEARS STRAIGHT AND MADE SLAVES ON THEIR OWN HOMELAND?

Is that a good enough ''EXCUSE''  for why Nigerians have not ''marched en masse'' like the Egyptians have done??

You DO realise the Egyptians did not just wake up one morning and decide to ''march en masse''??

Do you realize that in Egypt, for the past 30 years, you risked being murdered by govt thugs merely for voicing anti-government sentiments?

Or calling for a recount of votes in ''elections''?

In Nigeria, you can go to court and have election results OVERTURNED after showing evidence of malpractices. This has happened ALL OVER Nigeria in recent years, and will happen in the next elections.

Egypt is not even CLOSE to that level of political evolution or maturity.

Do you know that for the past 30 years in Egypt, you risked ARREST and DETENTION for congregating with more than 5 people on a public street?

Mubarak has operated a state of emergency for the last 30 years.

You need to understand WHY the people of Egypt have done this. It goes beyond economics, politics, the price of bread, etc.

Fact is for 30 years, they have been SLAVES in their own country.

There is something morally wrong when only 1% of the nation is able to benefit from the oil revenue, while most of the nation lives on $1 a day.

Stop talking rubbish. Far more than ''1%'' of the nation benefit from the oil revenue. Where do you think all that money came from to build 100 universities, thousands of public primary and secondary schools, roads, bridges, flyovers etc etc all over the country? Was it your money? Have you paid even 1 day's tax in your entire life?

And NO, ''most of the nation'' does NOT live on ''$1 a day''. Not even the poorest village farmer or palm wine tapper lives on that amount in real terms.  How much is a plate of eba and egusi in Washington or New York? Is it not at least $20?

The overwhelming majority of Nigerians eat at least THAT every day, not to mention other expenditure on transport clothing etc, so your $1 a day figure is highly dubious, misleading, and inaccurate.

Ezeuche said:

It is IMPOSSIBLE in Nigeria, because of the ethnic rivalries that play out in our political processes. Most Nigerians are more loyal to their ethnicity, than the Nigerian state. Egyptians on the other hand are very nationalistic and they have a common identity, in which most Egyptians are of "Arab" descent, follow the same religion and speak the same language. Nigeria does not have that luxury

My friend stop talking garbage. You do NOT know what is ''impossible'' in Nigeria. Where were the ''nationalistic'' Egyptians for the past 30 years??

How do you know that if Nigeria had similarly been subjected to a brutal 30 year long dictatorship, that the people would not have risen up IN UNISON to demand an end to the oppression?

violent said:

If it's in Naija, nothing go happen.

We once had a President {now late}, who while in a vegetative state, his wife controlled and held a population of 150 million people to random, till date, no one dare ask who signed the budget, all we are good at is to dust our árses and hope say "one day, in go beta"

Not surprised you somehow contrived to turn this into an attack on Nigeria in your miserable self-hatred.  How the idea of 'who signed the budget' compares with Mubarak's 30 year long dictatorship, 95% margin electoral 'victories', 12,000 political prisoners, midnight executions of dissidents, journalists, and scholars, and grand corruption, only your warped, ignorant mind can contrive.

bgees said:

It can never happen in Nigeria. Too many corrupt people and that inbred corruption will spoil the cause.

Dude, Egypt is just as 'corrupt' as Nigeria, if not more. The people there just have more binding them together in terms of ethnicity, language and religion, and so can unify for this sort of action with less stress and mutual suspicion than in Nigeria.

Also, the idea that it is ''impossible'' in Nigeria is wildly presumptuous. Most Egyptians who lived under Mubarak's iron fist for the last 30 years also believed this sort of mass revolt was ''impossible''.

Great thinking superboi.

Mubarak clearly holds his people in utter contempt, ignoring their demands, made in their millions out in the open.

His stock has really fallen in the eyes of many. Shameful.

The military need to get into his palace, and demand that he steps down immediately, failing which he can say his last prayer.

That's why I like Naija. We know how to manage this sort of thing better. It would never have come to this in Naija.

EGYPT NEEDS A MILITARY COUP

This standoff between the people and Mubarak has gone on for too long. The society is descending into chaos and anarchy while the army just sits there and watches. It won't take sides with the people. It won't take sides with Mubarak. It won't impose its authority on anything.

What's the point of having a military when they are so impotent in the face of the state collapsing in on itself?

The Egyptian military needs to seize power, establish military rule for a period not more than 6 months, following which elections can be held and a democratically elected government installed.

Tunmi said:

So when is our president going to help the citizens in Jos and the Niger Delta. Or must there be an uprising there for him to focus?

Have you actually followed the events in these two places, and do you know what and what has been done there by the government in say the last few months?

Answer: NO YOU DON'T. In fact you do not know ANYTHING going on in the ''Niger Delta'' much less what has been done by the government in Jos. You only write this because you've heard people talk and write about those places. You've done ZERO research yourself. You do not even READ Nigerian newspapers online. Don't ask me how I know - I just know.

And what's going on in Egypt is a protest against the government. The Nigerians who are there will be fine. It's not a war unlike other places in Nigeria.

You're extremely ignorant and thoughtless. 150 people were slaughtered two days ago in Egypt. Today, reports on Al Jazeera say 100 have been killed in Alexandria since yesterday. Sure. it's ''not a war like other places in Nigeria''. A fool fed fat on hamburgers and losing the little brains she had.

We don't have to copy copy everything the US does. They have their reasons. They respect and value their citizens' lives more than we do (it's the bitter truth)

The ultimate, disgusting statement of self-imposed inferiority. Shame on you and your self loathing ilk. I guess it never occurred to your inferiorized little mind that evacuating your citizens from anarchical countries on the brink of civil war is a state duty.

And to who mentioned the Egyptian soldiers and their respect for human life (no shoot to kill) thank you for including that.

You forgot to mention the Egyptian ''special police forces'' responsible for the deaths of hundreds so far. Or they don't fit in to your philosophy of self imposed inferiority? Brainless she-goat.

It's not the size of your lap top that - oh never mind.

A problem? The basis of this thread is derived from the Bible, which to me is the best gift to mankind. Your dilemma is that you think it is just a book imposed on humans for reasons best known to you. That is your problem.

Look, you're free to regard the bible as whatever you wish. For me, it's just a book some foreign chancers handed to my ancestors to sell them a story. The new testament is almost an entire fabrication, while the old testament is a thoroughly misleading mish mash of ripped out Sumerian and Egyptian histories and legends, and often sinister UFO encounters in which one or more leaders of the visitors is falsely represented as ''God''.

Jewish bible? Person? Entity? Now I know what I am dealing with. Like one of my fellow NL brethen said "I am dealing with a mindset"
Anyway let me educate you on the GOD I am talking about; I am talking about my sole provider, the creator of Heaven and Earth, the source of all prosperity and achievement, the Sovereign Judge, the Lord of Heaven's Armies, The El shaddai, The Elohim, The Adonai, The Elyon, The I AM THAT I AM and yes of course "YAHWEH"

I note you're an expert at naming the various Middle Eastern terms for God. Pray, do you have a name that you use in YOUR OWN language, or did your people not know or have a name for the Almighty before they saw a bible?

Whatever happened to YOUR name for the Creator?

Why isn't it on your list of names up there?

The spread of the Judaeo-christian faith was really at source a coldly devised exercise in cultural imperialism.

What is ''death''?

What is it like to ''die''?

Please oooo, Egypt is a northern Africa country.

Both of you should spare me that 'African'  bullcrap.

All too predictably, you associate them with Africa when it's negative.

But if we were discussing the economic progress made by Libya or Morocco now you will be the first to jump in here to remind us they are Arabs, 'not Africans'.

Self-loathing riff raff.

What a shameless idiiot this man!!!

See how the whole country is out in the open calling for you to STEP DOWN as their leader, and yet, like a brainless OAF, you sit there, forcing yourself on them.

In fact I even used to regard Mubarak as a reasonable kind of fellow, despite his unholy alliance with Israel and the US. But now, I've lost all respect for him. At his old age (82), he still cannot get it into his thick skull that the entire country is tired of him.

What more does this fool want? The entire country is at a standstill. People out in the streets in their tens of thousands for nearly a week now! Economy ground to a halt.

Tomorrow, they're planning a Million Man March!

Just to ask him to GO!

Tufia!! What a useless waste of space, this Mubarak.

He's lost all shame in his old age!!

blacksta said:

The shaded above is enough proof that screws are missing your brain.  No wonder your brain is bashing your skull hence the rubbish you  are writing here.


If GEJ can not be held responsible for the loss of lives and properties jos then who should we hold responsible.    you i am guessing?

In other sane environments. The CIC would have resigned office because he is clueless on the necessary actions to take in relation to quelling matters in Jos

Ode oshi, so you're going to blame President Obama for the 500 people that get shot dead in New York City alone every year? What about the 500 in Detroit? Houston nko? What about Baltimore? Philly? LA?

Have you for once in your life ever blamed any US president for the sky high murder rate in US cities??

But in Nigeria you expect President Jonathan to leave his house and come and do gateman for you in Jos, to stop you killing each other because of your imported, stupiid religion which causes you to hate your fellow Nigerian/African?

NO. He has done what he is required to do. Now it is left to YOU NIGERIANS to USE YOUR BRAINS and understand that human life has value, since your bibles and korans and other imported ''holy books'' you use (after abandoning the religion of your fathers) have done such a poor job of civilizing you, turning you instead to cold, vengeful beasts.

You have grown men going around, burning churches, burning mosques. Even older men supporting them.  Did your religions not teach you this was wrong? Christians? What are you doing burning mosques? Is that what your Jesus taught you?

So why are you blaming Jonathan?

If your ''pastors'' had spent less time in ''prosperity preaching'' to make money and ride private jets, and more time on Conflict Resolution, on Love Thy Neighbour, on Respect and Honour Thy neighbour, there would be no problems today in Jos.

Sorry iflex, but YOU are the mumu.

It is not Jonathan's fault if brainless idiots in Jos go around killing fellow Nigerians because of religious differences and ethnic hatred. Christians AND muslims have been implicated. When does it become the fault of NIGERIANS?

Will Jonathan think for you? Will army man teach you to regard your fellow humans as humans?

Will army man sleep with you in your room to make sure you don't wake up in the middle of the night to go and kill your neighbour out of hatred and stuppidity?

Worthless foools. Stay there blaming Jonathan. The man is doing what he can: Here's the news:


Jan. 31 (Bloomberg) -- Nigerian security forces arrested 27 people after repelling an attack on two settlements in the central city of Jos in the latest sectarian violence in the West African nation, Brigadier-General Umaru Hassan said.

One police officer was killed before soldiers intervened yesterday, Hassan, who is commander of the military task force in the area, said by phone from the Plateau state capital today. Nigerian police foiled an attempt to bomb a church during services yesterday in the northern state of Bauchi, state police commissioner Mohammed Abdulkadir Indabawa told reporters.

The attempted bombing followed clashes between Christians and Muslims in the Tafawa Balewa district of the state and several churches and mosques last week were burned, police said. At least 20 people died in the fighting, Lagos-based ThisDay newspaper reported today, citing Indabawa.


What more do you want from Jonathan?

The onus is on NIGERIAN[/b]S to start to use [b]THEIR brains.

In the meantime, Mr President, KUDOS for remembering Nigerians stranded in Egypt.

Wish GEJ will just take up an id and register on nairaland to see what the real Nigerians are sayin not not the a s s kissers on Facebook.

Why would Jonathan waste time coming here to read rubbish by frustrated losers and failures looking for someone to blame for their problems?

The president orders evacuation of Nigerians from the anarchy of Egypt, and rather than these bastarrds to commend him, they're spewing filth and garbage like the worthless traitors they are.

If Jonathan did nothing and groups of Nigerians got killed in Cairo, guess who would be the first to come on here to attack ''Nigeria'' and Jonathan? You guessed it - the same FAILURES here typing filth.
