No matter how difficult it’s in this country. Family and I, we will never beg to eat 🙏

Up here is an example of a typical black man's mentality. This is an example of how religion eats away at the brain of a typical black man.

Many of those who made this statement, some don kpai. Some are the same people creating posts and begging diasporans like this op. Others, in their old comments, they were boasting about how only they and their family are insulated from economic hardship because they probably have a "special" way they connect to their invisible god.

This individualistic or close-unit familial mindset is one reason why the country is where it is today. The socalled stup!d celebrities don't care about others because they and their family do not "beg to eat". Same thing for politicians.

Even during the endsars, there were those who earned money online by doing remote work and because of this, they didnt feel the need to involve in the protest. This is the most backwards mentality of the black man. They dont know that a working society is far better than an individual milestone.

You travel abroad to sane countries because the society works. Crime is on a low so you do not bother about erecting huge walls, electrifiying your fences or hiring security guard to protect your home. In nigeria, you make money but you create a huge fence, put broken bottles on your fence, add 2 iron doors, dash in and out.

You are only as rich as your outer society. You are only as free as the outer society. If you live in the midst of mad people, foreigners will regard you as mad. Even if you speak coherently, they will but brand your madness as posh.

Reason. You are not more special than those who have said these words and are now begging and hassling people on whatsapp and extended family members. OP was probably saying things like you 3 years ago. Let's see what you may say 3 years after.

Nigerians did end Sars, what changed apart from some few promises.
Kenya just did their own version, they have been given some promises and everything is back to normal.

Nigerians have been there and done that.

Nigerians have been there and done that yen yen yen... Done which crap nonsense?!

Stories. Is that how to do protest? They kllled just a few people and everybody ran inside and started doing tribal blame games.

The soldiers that shot were just following orders. So you don't know that some will die? As they kill some, they expect the protesters to mount a serious comeback so they can have tangible reason to recoil. They need us to be hardcore to an extent.

But trust this GMO generation na. Na to fold like wimps, dey hide, dey peep thru window.

Shioor abeg.

I DON'T TAKE NIGERIANS SERIOUSLY. THEY WILL BE COMPLAINING ABOUT HARDSHIP.

BUT JUST SUGGEST A BREAKING APART OF THE ZOOLOGICAL REPUBLIC, THE LUGARDIAN CURSED EMPIRE, THE SO-CALLED NIGGGER-REANS WILL UNITE AND COME FOR YOUR HEAD.

AND WILL MOCK YOU IF YOU ARE TAKEN AWAY OR INCARCERATED.

Kobojunkie:
The best thing Nigerians abroad can do for Nigerians in Nigeria is to cut off that lifeline that has kept the people suffering and smiling even going as far as celebrating the criminals they have in office. A year without that yearly $17 Billion remittance will not only cause the people to begin to see red but maybe finally force them to rise up and do the needful.

Sounds counter-intuitive but makes sense upon deeper reflection.

DUNDEEmoderatos:
Coming from a suffering Nigga.

It is not enough to call him a suffering ni666er. Some of these people are moles planted all over the internet space to defend the epileptic government and to influence those with weak minds on ethnic, tribal or religious grounds.

Before the hungry and angry typical nigerian hits the streets against the politicians, they need to first identify the enablers and defenders and take the war to them first.

There needs to be an inner revolution first before the outer revolution.

DID KENYANS ASK FOR THEIR PEOPLE ABROAD BEFORE THEY STAGED A REVOLUTION??

WEAK-ASS BLACK VEXATIOUS NIGGGER-AREANS.

SHEBI ALL OF UNA NA PRAYER WARRIORS NA. WHAT ALLAH CANNOT DO DOES NOT EXIST; MIRACLE NO DEY TIRE JESUS. NO MATTER THE STATE OF THE ECONOMY, MY HOUSEHOLD AND I BLABLABLA...

Is It Not Some Of You That Were Going For 2023 Elections That Were Fighting Diasporans Of Biafra And Oduduwa Extraction, Saying They Were Sponsored? Many Of Us Here Mocked The Arrest Of Kanu, Igboho And Even When Ekpa Was Temporarily Arrested.

Even Up Till Today, Una Still Keep Mocking Them. Go To Ekpa's Page Or Koiki's Page Or Mayegun Diary Politico.

Lazy Irritating Niggger-areans. Shey One-nigeria Don Dey Tire Una So Quick?

I Watched A Number Of Programs Then: From Adeola Fayehun To Dr Damages To That Delta Dreads Guy (Pararan mock news or so). Even Here On Nl. You People Mocked Us Saying We Are Sponsored. Okay Na

WE MUST ALL SUFFER THE FOOLISHNESS TOGETHER. DIASPORANS, HOLD UNA MONEY BACK. CONQUERED BLACK SLAVES MUST LEARN.

jkuvira:
Oga, na you dey listen to mediocre Nigerian music with wacky lyrics. And the abroad people you are calling equally have artists who release songs having uncanny similarities with these Nigerian lyrics you're decrying.

Change your taste in the Nigerian artists you listen and receive peace.

Have you even seen Oloture which highlights one of the things you mentioned, or Funmilayo Ransome-Kuti.

And, not every piece has to capture a social issue. It is okay and normal for something to just be about anything unserious that won't add a value to your being. It is called entertainment.

Thanks. I've looked around for more lyrically meaningful artistes but they are few and far between.

Ahmed0336:
Omo!!! With all the media japa hype, pesin no go know say Indian, china, Iraq, Pakistan even almighty UK and US japa pass us

U go fear fear na

But the difference is that Canadians also travel to UK, and USA to obtain citizenship there too.

Its such like an exchange. But u see Nigeria, its a one-way ticket.

All na hustle sha.

By the way, when Nigeria movie industry go do film like prison break or 24? This is what I keep saying. Both in songs, movies, books etc., we only get mediocre stuff. In songs, you'll be hearing lyrics like "Come wetin dey worry you, I get money pass your papa o hmmn".

In the movie industry, you'll be hearing titles like "Heart of Fire", "Lagos husbands"... now see this one: "Lekki housewives". Is everything always all about love, family, relationship, cheating etc? I just don tire. Please engage your brains please. There is a site in Idanre where they tend to hear sounds from a caved rock. You can form a movie around that idea. There is abundance of fulani terrorists and bandits all the way from sahel down to lagos. Think of a movie that sheds light on how ammo runs illegally, espionage, hideouts, upper echelon conspiracy, crime fighting, crisis management, world politics, neo-colonialism, terrorism, unjust detentions, illegal mining / bunkery, even secession. Disguise it in such a way that it would pass the screening test but your viewers that have sense would know where you're going.

There is a current GMO agenda in Nigeria already in the works. Nollywood producers cannot think of a movie that would encapsulate the danger, knock-on effects and predictability of this agenda and how far-reaching its effects could be. No o. Instead at the dead of the night, they will be sending email to oldies like Rita Dominic or mercy Johnson that "Hey, we are about to shoot one movie in Lekki. Please can you play the role of a housewife or sugar-mummy? We estimate between 2 - 4 million for a cameo role if the numbers hit so-so- and so figure"

In this part of the World, comeback is impossible.

If I dey lie, ask Psquare and Dbanj

Hmmn, not all the time.

Simi, made a comeback after fading off with her single hit ara-ile. She re-branded and came with a hit with Falz (soldier) in 2016. Since then, she's been mainstream.

RighteousDemon:
They were filming her. Instead of proactive measures. [s]Social media is making zombies out of Africans[/s]

Why not use a quick and less painful method like sniper. If life is hard, death shouldn't be also hard.

So in ur mind, sniper is easy.

Just dey play.

[quote author=weedfada post=130730546][/quote]God go bless you tire.

She's been the best female artiste to come out of naija in the past 10 years.

I can name many nigerian female singers and nearly none can come close in holding a candle to her.

See names:

1. Tiwa Savage (Very versatile but still holds no candle to Morgan).
2. Simi (Sonorous voice. Good dancer. Intelligent actress and song scripter). She try though but no reach
3. D'ija (Powerful voice. Has a unique range of pitches. Still no reach. Left the scene too early).
4. Stormrex (No reach)
5. Fave (Her dancehall style reminds me of Cynthia just a likkle. Still nuh reach).
6. Waje (No reach. Generally simple songs she sings).
7. Yemi Alade (So-called Mama Africa. Sings one reasonable song after 9 cringy songs)
8. Tems (Overrated)
9. Teni (Hit and miss)
10. Niniola (Good but not excellent)
11. Qing Madi (Tries for her age)
12. Eva Alordiah (Good)

Purposely decided to leave out the likes of Sade Adu or Asa who sing completely different genres and firmly fall into a prior generation but I place only these 2 above Cynthia Morgan... that I can recall for now.

Dangrace01:
Respect! Good analysis

Hope you are not joeel kennis music?

Hahaha, boss no o.

Haba, I swear no o.

willyo:
Dope jam there bro. All three fantastic

U sabi.

Since Wizkid lost his mum last year, you can tell his passion dropped. And his mom was not that old.

After Davido lost his kid, his passion also dropped. But at least he seems to have partially recovered, and he always had other kids anyway. His wife has not recovered.

As for Burna, one of d very few nigerian singers that can do an int'l collabo and I wouldn't cringe about his lyrics or his delivery. Another is Patoranking. Tiwa Savage is one, Wizkid a little. Asa definitely. Omah Lay surely. Ruger, to a very good extent. Fave, Ayrra Star.

Singers with lyrics that make me cringe Kizz Daniel (melodious but nursery rhymes), Davido (energetic but lyrics too cringy most of the time e.g, "so mi so, I don nono... Energy like cocaine, creme de de la creme), Victony, Young Jonn (sings nonsense, man should stick to dj), Shallipopi (should not be mentioning this guy sef), Rema (babyish lyrics: "come here wetin dey worry you, I get money pass your papa uhhn'), Odumodu (does not piece his rap story properly), CKay (lyrically lazy dude), Kcee (You would think his lyrics would have matured considering his duration in this game)

Summary: Nigerian singers should do better with their lyrics abeg. I mean, it's not that difficult na. Worse comes to worse, open dictionary, learn history and cultures of other places and research idioms and witty expressions. Put efforts. Make person hear music make hin brain engage small. All these primary 1 lyrics don tire person ear abeg.

That is why I miss Cynthia morgan:

Bubble Bup (2016) "Definitely them a call on me
Cos me a get the stuff wey fit fall down d economy
Girl friend me never let the things of the world dishonour me
Call me boyfriends sidechicks them a fall on me

Word for dah
Whine in a bubble bup
Still in my run baff-mi say them no fit
Whine in a bubble bup
Stick stake it sticky-yicky...

Simmer: one-two.
Wey the way me bounce it for him, me lock down me tin' tin' tin' tin' tin' tin',
Bounce it for him, me lock down the tin' for me baby baby o

Like Dat (Ft Banky W, WizzyPro)

"Girl a full
When she turn up you cant look away
Money red bottom money things that she wear
Everything tight with a suiting Marykay
Hold on

She want the bread not the winner
Money cheese and the keys to your beamer
And she too deep her frisk collar bout to kill her
When she comes through she she is a killer

Hold on
She a street hustler
Man a real smuggler
She never jack by left course that's a ritual
If you are drug then she is the smuggler

Chilling up with killers
Girl 'a overzealous
She don't want no hilux
But she waiting for her pick up
Call her friends for link up
Chilling with the dons and the geez
her skirt never cross above her knees"

This man don turn apc spokesperson.

O kare o.

Rubyjade:
Chase them away. Some Nigerians have spoilt or soiled our name in African countries. For instance, in Kenya, Nigerians are known for fraud (Yahoo) & South Africa (Drugs).

U didnt even add exported prostitution?

Ever8090:
Omo...no need to wait for government to legalize gun, make everybody buy him own God to secure himself and him family, me don dey gather money already,..any Fulani herdsman I see around me I go first gee am one for forehead...

Way to go...

olaniyilukman:
Oloriburuku and one unfortunate father Righteousness or what exactly is your manner

Why call him oloriburuku?

Waht has he done that warrants that?

Inyaky:
2face was given a title in Kaduna or one northern state like that, or the picture you saw is from a music video, 2face is idoma, idomas has nothing close to northern Emirates, the idoma culture is totally different and idomas are Christians, only a few of them are moslem, Joel s father is ibo while mom is an idoma woman, his parents lived in Kaduna, that means he grew up in Kaduna and that could have influenced him dressing like them at a point.

You are very correct. I understand your point. Thank you.

WantsandMore:
Perhaps Stockholm syndrome or just Palin policy of assimilation at play, like Nigerians dress like Britons, write like them, worship like them and even wants to speak the English language better than them after causing monumental havoc on the west African nation. Kinda like stuck 2ith what your oppressor left behind and there's no one left to teach you otherwise, unlike the Chinese, japs,the Koreans,Russians et al.

You have said it all. It's a strange relationship but does exist.

See these shady Bayero's eyes sha.

I remember one song by Joe el, the singer who sings and looks like 2 face (and quite by small coincidence, my moniker mimics)..

He sang a song called "Oya now" with Oritsefemi in 2014 or so, produced by the late OJB Jezreel.

A few lines of the lyrics are:

"Isaac has sent joel bayaro (haha)
I mean back in the days of ado bayero (sabada)"

----------------------------

What I'm thinking is Joe el is from Southern Kaduna and his father was killed by fulani terrorists in 2020 or so. My question is, why is it that some middle-belt people tend to honour this culture of the fulanis despite what their eyes have seen?

Ice Prince from Jos dresses like that sometimes. 2 face from Benue wey no far o, does the same thing, dressing like an emir sometimes, shortly after fulani sahel bandits had laid waste his Benue kinsmen.

I'm not sure if it's a tacit master-slave connection but uhmm, never really mind.

vannessa7:
I am a Muslim

Okay, thanks for letting me know but still doesn't negate my points.

You are only a muslim because somewhere along the line, either you or your parents / ancestors bowed to the superiority of the arabs.

That is just the long and short of the whole matter, whether you admit or not.

LOVEALAIGBO:
There’s a common denominator that links posters hating Israel and defending Hezbollah and Hamas, and those despising anything Igbo, Peter Obi, Mazi Kanu and IPOB! Check it! And another thing you’ll notice is that, more often than not, they’re APC, Buhari and Tinubu minions! Check it from their post history!

They are islamic terrorists.

Simply knack it on its head.

But you'll be surprised the amount of non-muslims that do not want to hear anything mnk, biafra, ipob etc. All d way from middle-belt to south west, south-south and even that south-east.

Fire4fireNL:
Israel has a right to defend itself, and go after any terrorist nation/organization that attacks its territory and citizens. I don't and will never support or condone any terrorist attack.

That being said, I think Israel is also gradually turning into a terrorist nation, with Netanyahu at the helm of affairs.

Don't be deceived, Netanyahu is only fighting for his survival, not for the security of Israel.

Netanyahu don't want to stop the war for his selfish reason. He knows one thing for sure - he will be held responsible for the October 7 attack. Once that happens, he loses his seat as the PM, and then he has to go face his corruption case, which he has been frantically trying over the years to delay till after his death.

Hamas is an ideology, just like boko-haram, ISWAP, etc. You can't totally defeat an ideology. It lives inside of people, generation after generation. If Isreal should succeed (although not possible) to eliminate or capture all Hamas current leaders and fighters, the little ones and the ones yet unborn will do way worse than their present crop of leaders.

Don't forget, these terrorist organizations are so swift in replacing their killed or captured leaders. If you look through the years, you will discover that the new set of leaders are always brutal than their previous. Yahya Sinwar has done way worse than the previous Hamas leaders. No one, I mean no Hamas leader has ever had the balls and courage to lead such a deadly and powerful attack against Israel. Guess what, Yahya Sinwar just showed his people that Isreal is not invincible afterall.

Hamas has achieved it's goal - breached Israel's border security, killed and maimed Israelis, and then kidnap both soldiers and civilians. Even if Israel should kill every living thing in Palestinian right now, it won't change the fact that Hamas has achieved their aim.

Hamas don't value life, just like all every other terrorist organizations.

We are gradually approaching the one year anniversary of the sad attack. Israel has been battling Hamas in Gaza for over 8 months, and yet hamas fighters and Yahya Sinwar are still breathing. They still have the hostages, even right there inside Gaza. That should tell you that even if Israel occupies Gaza till Jesus comes, hamas will never be completely destroyed. This is a fact.

Israel, under Netanyahu should not bite more than it can chew.

Hezbollah is more sophisticated than Hamas, that's not up for argument. They have more precision weapons, supplied by Iran.

Isreal facing Hezbollah at this time is a wrong choice. It won't end well.

If not for the US and other European countries defense capabilities, Israel would have been badly hit during Iran's retaliation attack few months ago. Forget the Iron Dome, the Iranians missile would have overwhelmed them. Even Hezbollah hit one of the iron dome few weeks ago.

The world do not want any more war at this time. In case you don't know, the cost of war is expensive. We are still suffering the fall-out of Russia-Ukraine war.

You might think it doesn't affect you, but these things disrupt the world economy, and as a result, affect each and every country, irrespective of the continent the war is being waged

Say you are a muslim without saying you are a muslim.

vannessa7:
My write up is not based on unproven theoretics but personal experience. Do you know that there are some people who still retain a bit of the memory of heaven who still remembers how it was before they were born and who still regularly communicates with heaven because they are servants of God by birth. Ifa, Buddha etc that you mentioned are all creatures of God who if they can talk will still tell you there is a power beyond them.
I'm very much aware of the chronological order of the Abrahamic religion, the difference between the books of other religions and the books of the Abrahamic religion is the power inherent in the latter which is very absent in the former. The books of God made known the mind of God and made it clear that worshipping those other gods which were actually created by God is not allowed, moreover the Buddha etc has no heaven to take their followers to and none of them has or can create anything. The Quran said we should ask them what they created.

Lest I forget, I am a geographer so I'm well aware of the archaeological findings and all. But logically you will realize that ancient civilizations such as Egypt and environ was being referred to. Even as recent as 200 years ago most part of the area we call Nigeria was still in the bush.

And by the way, Angels are transparent like crystal glass, I know they can decide to appear in human form but their original form is like crystal but with human shape and large wings, I have seen hundreds of them and even spoken to one. I just want you to know there are some people who the spiritual is their reality. I can confirm to you that those serving idols called ifa, Buddha etc will spend eternity in hell fire if they don't repent. And all evil people. Not remembering your maker while in this world is a great wickedness against Him. There is nothing like differences when it comes to God. He is one and created all. He allowed His books to be written so the entire world will come to know Him.

So if most parts of Nigeria was bushy, what exactly is your point? Does that means humans didn't exist because the areas were bushy? What kind of reasoning is this though? Ancient men were mostly cavemen and hunters and gatherers... They didn't build any modern civilisation but wandered and foraged.

If you say you see angels, hope you know there are others who see unicorns, others see flying horses, alicorns, dragons, goblins, ghouls? And how do you see them? If it's via a dream, then anyone can dream anything. If you say you spoke with one, did you speak inside a dream cos if so, anyone can talk to anyone in a dream.

But if it's live, then where is your proof? If you do not have a video recording or at the very least, an audio recording, then you and your angel are quite a disappointment.

If you call Ifa idol, then your jesus is a mere human sculpture. And if you say others would go to hell for not believing your jesus human sculpture then congratulations! Because you are also going to hell in another person's religion.
