₦airaland Forum

raayah:
Good post! It is refreshing to see a thinking Nigerian on this forum.

Thanks.

If only people will seat down, think, analyse, weigh the pros and cons, they will know that most of the promises posited by the opposition are not feasible as they want us to believe.
Common! anybody can make promises, there's no patent right to it. It's that easy.
What I want to hear is how to make them reality and the deadline to achieve them.

Until they do so, it's only a promise of a fool's paradise.

maestroferddi:
You dey mind all the deluded folks taking all the "I go do" promises of a desperate old man.

I really find it difficult to believe that an individual that saw the four walls of a tertiary institution is taking the pies in the sky APC and Buhari are parroting serious.

Some would tell you that should Buhari fail to meet expectation, that they would vote him out after four years. Talk of naivety! I don't blame folks sha. Everybody has been carried away with Jonathan's tolerance and permissiveness.

By the time the cabal trying to foist Buhari on Nigeria have their way, all the civil liberties we are taken for granted would be history.

We have lots of 'educated illiterates' in Nigeria... the future of Nigeria is bleaking.

Even the 'aged ones' are 'living' our future for us rendering the youths unplaced.

My question is "HOW ARE YOU GOING TO MAKE A DECISION FOR THE FUTURE WHEN YOU ARE NOT GOING TO BE IN IT?" -Chris Rock on Mc Caine (who was 72years *too old* when he contested and lost against Obama in 2012)

It's now "The youths are the followers of tomorrow" SMH.

One word... OLIVER TWIST

Reminds me of a common swear we make when we were kids...

"If I nor slap you, make I twist"

It's inside the hole.

Lots of promises without a single blueprint to accomplish them.


If Nigerians were "literate" enough they would have seen the big handwriting on the wall. It's even written in the skies.

Op please after u.

ACHIEVERBA:
WHO CARES??

NFCS does!

What happened to international minimum wage?

Any police that comes to testify in a case am defending, will carry the blame for all what they've done to me and other innocent citizens.

He will get it tough from me I swear.

Nairamode, exactly what happened to me in warri last year October.

In my own case they (about 9 policemen, including 2females) tried all means to handcuff my 2 hands for saying they should take it easy and not push us out of the bus. I fought so had to resist them. They were only able to handcuff my left hand, forced me in a tricycle (keke) and took me to the Enerhen Police station, Effurun Delta state. I immediately called my family lawyer on our way to the station. At the station, I told them I was a barrister to be in November same year and that I'll take up the matter personally. The lawyer called me back when I was at the police station to inform that he had sent 2 lawyers to me and that I should exercise patience. During the call, I place my phone on speaker to their hearing. Immediately after the call, they politely asked me that it has not gotten to the extent of calling my lawyer and that I shouldn't obstruct a policeman on duty.
At that moment, I knew I had won the fight. Some minutes later, they asked me to go without any further delay.

What kept bothering me about that issue till now is, what if they had guns with them? I didn't see any gun with them that day.

If you look intently you will see Buhari pointing behind with his thumb.

He's like "Atiku! Atiku!! Atibobo!!! go back to where you are coming from!!!"

Watch Arsenal match I'll rather watch Telemundo or Barney.

AlpineSnow:
As a Non-Nigerian African, I've always been fascinated by Nigeria (And no, not because of Nollywood, I'm not a fan of Nollywood). Here are the reasons why I want to visit Nigeria.

1. To Try Jollof Rice
I once read this book by Chinua Achebe where one of the characters really liked Jollof rice. And it sounded tasty. So I really want to visit nigeria and try it straight from the source.

2. To Visit Kano.
Back when I was in class seven (7th grade obviously) we learnt about Climates in different parts of Africa. Kano (Northern Nigeria) was one of the area whose climates we studied. We looked at some pictures from that area, and the mud roofed houses (adobe houses?) looked really nice. So I'd like to visit that place.

3. To Visit the University of Ibadan.
It's probably the most well known Nigerian University outside of Nigeria. And a lot of smart Nigerians e.g Soyinka went there. Plus when I was a kid, I used to read this African encyclopedia for teenagers, and most of the contributing authors were from there (the others were from the university of Nairobi).

4. To Try Bitter Leaf and Egusi.
I don't even know what this is, but it sounds delicious. Again I learnt about this while reading Achebe.

5. To Visit Enugu.
I read "The Nigerian Civil War" by John de st Jorre. And Enugu was the capital of Biafra at the beginning. So I'm just interested in visiting because I read so much about it.

6. To Visit the Confluence of The Niger and The Benue.
And to travel by boat for a short distance down The Niger. Hopefully I won't end up like Mungo Park.

7. Visit Port Harcourt.
I just like the name of the city. That's all.

8. Visit the University of Nigeria, Nsukka.
Why? Because some smart Nigerians e,g Chris Okigbo have ties to this university. (Side Note: Chris Okigbo's grandson and I attended the same university. And boy, could he sing! His group competed in one of those American singing shows and did very well)

Mr. Alpine please don't try to convince anyone about your Nationality...
Nigerians are very smart, doubtful, and can ask questions a lot.

We even respond to questions with another question... that's the untold story of Nigeria.

He said he's a Kenyan and he's interested in Nigeria.. what's the biggy?

Personally, I know about South Africa than some South Africans and I can even prove it... I've never been there... it boils down to interest.
I even know some streets in S.A I can even describe them... (Google has been helpful).

Not like he's claiming he's British or some western. Country.


Na wa oo.

And some people said foreigner indeed when he said No homo.

So no homo is a Nigerian word now abi?

LMFAO
