Elusive001:
You are right.
That's why some of them foolishly support Islamic terrorism not knowing that it blows no good. The are truly ignorant.

Lemme guess: You support the slaughter of innocent children in Gaza?

As certain African countries allow themselves to be bullied by Trump on the international stage, the Black American media hails Nigeria for publicly rejecting Trump's demand that Nigeria accepts Venezuelan deportees and prisoners!

Saying ''This is how African nations need to respond to Trump!''

At least, they have the colosseum to be entertained which shows they have little to worry about.




Where is your own colosseum to be entertained?

The National Theatre, Lagos is more impressive than any Roman colosseum.

There's no way Burkina Faso will spend $300m on a single project

You guys don’t know what is happening in Burkina Faso.

Since Traore came in, revenue has increased tenfold because he stopped the French deals that saw his country get 10% of the profits from its export trade in gold and other minerals, to something like 80% today, especially using indigenous labour and Russian/Chinese help.

He is showing that these countries are actually very rich. It was their Exploitation by the west that has kept them in poverty.

So if he’s building such a stadium, it’s no biggie. They are very rich in gold and minerals, and now They - not the French - control that wealth.

Go to Burkina Faso. The entire country is a construction site. Why will a stadium not be included?

NwokoloOwa:
All these royal fathers should go and sit down.

They are all hugely part of the decadence in our society. Have you ever seen the convoy of the Emir of Kano 1 or the other Emir of Kano 2. It's crazy. Or convoy of Oni of Ife or Oba of Benin, or Gwon bong Jos.

All feeding fat on our common wealth. Everything they and their family do is virtually on on government funds.

Then this one, Sanusi would come and be speaking nonsense English on podium.

They all go and sit down abeg.

Angel Gabriel.

Hater of decadence.

Was it the royal fathers that sent you people to be selling drugs in India and South Africa?

Every day you are caught in Indonesia and India selling hard drugs.

Is that the fault of traditional rulers?

Emu4u2c2:
Honestly.. Lots of Nigerians honestly want them to leave...

They are unwanted now.

Parasites who have made it their job to sabotage Nigeria.

Go and see what Igbos are saying online about Nigeria. All over social media. Just trashing the country before the world.

Those people hate this country.

Yet they insist they must rule us with Peter Obi.

God forbid!

gidgiddy:
If Igbos wanted to annex your so called 'Niger Delta', they could have done it even before the British came from Europe to put everyone in their disastrous colonial experiment called Nigeria. Oil is not going to help anyone, Nigeria ended up world poverty capital with all it's oil

Gambia is just a country of 2 millon people , what Igbos need is referendum to peaceful exit this British colonial creation

You are a chronic liar.

The Niger Delta oil is the Only thing behind your secessionist agenda.

Anyone can claim and boast about anything. The difference is that we all know Trump's achievements. He doesn't even need to boast.
Again you are not unique because you went to school. Many people who didn't go to school have achieved more than you ever will.

Lastly, there is nothing wrong with losing money. He lost all his father gave him and made it back many fold. To me, that is the story of greatness.
What is your own story?

He’s a criminal convict on multiple Fraud charges. Are you aware of that?

Do you know he is a convicted felon on 34 criminal charges?

What you should be asking if your head was screwed on right is “What is a convicted criminal doing in the White House?” What sort of corrupt system allowed That to happen?

tctrills:
Lol
I really don't know who is more intelligent between E money and Wole. One is a leader in literature and the other is a business leader and social icon.
They live in 2 different worlds.
Then we have Trump, a political leader, a business leader, a social media leader, a movie star, a social icon.
He is a combination of many good things.
Finally, we have you. A follower. But somehow, you are more intelligent than Trump.
Clap for yourself.

All this worship of Trump, yet if he sees your black face in his offices he’ll throw you for being a D.E.I. hire.

tctrills:
Please read my response in my earlier post but let me leave you with one more thing.
If someone like Elon Musk the genius calls Trump a man of limited intelligence, I will understand but coming from you, a man who's most notable achievements are your comments on Nairaland, that's crazy.
Respect people who will forever be greater than you will ever be.

The only reason Trump is not a street Bum begging for “spare change” in New York is because he inherited money from his rich Nazi German dad.

We civilised people with common sense do not worship racist white dullards just because they have money.

We are not all like you.

SonofElElyonRet:
Because Trump doesn't credit third world (African) leaders with much intelligence and disdains them (some would say for good reason). So he's surprised

Trump is a Dunce and a Criminal, and is no position to “disrespect” anybody.

It is because you are mentally colonised to worship Caucasians that you find him worthy of “respect”.

He’s a Dunce. He doesn’t know Anything.

Sccarrr:
wow? , amazed? What's interesting about the insult ?, he insulted a whole continent (Africa), and not just the man...

Were u educated? , where were u educated in?
a whole head of state, Haba!....what nonsensical nonsense! Trump considers Africans to be inferior 😕

Because he is a complete Dunce with nothing in his head.

He’s only rich because he inherited money from his racist Nazi father.

TimeManager:
"Igbo politicians don't support each other during elections".... Is this not tribalism?.

Chimamanda is insinuating that igbos must support igbos but when Yoruba supports Tinubu , they insult and abuse them, calling them tribalists.

Even when others support the President, they accused them of having being paid or hired.

But here is somebody who poses as a mentor , mounts podiums to preach equity and fairness but she is a closet tribalist.

The only problem I have with these people, is the fact that they pretend, lie and disguise they want a better alternative irrespective of tribe and religion rather than being honest to say they want Igbo presidency. You can't disguise forever, like a proverb says, the dead you buried secretly, his feet are showing outside. Stop disguising, come out with your full chest and embrace your tribalism.


-Kiss the truth!

Very well said.

They are the biggest tribalists, these Igbos.

What did Peter Obi do to qualify for the Nigerian presidency?

Yet they supported him and claimed those that didn’t were tribalists. It’s called Projection.

delpee:
Really? Comments based on the wrong assumption. I'm not Igbo.

Fair enough. So what “mistake” are you referring to?

Obi did not know Abacha was a murderous military dictator?

What exactly was the “mistake” he made, that people like Tinubu were fighting in the streets and risking their lives as NADECO members to bring back civilian rule, while Peter Obi was doing the Exact Opposite? Working for Abacha?

Mbanda:
Tinubu is worse than anything you think Obi is.
Herdsmen don finish Nigerians kpatata and tinibu is not doing anything about it instead of doing something to salvage Nigerians from the ugly situation, he prefers junketing around the globe uninvited.
This is the kind of packaged fraud ronubandits wants as president all because of crumbs and tribe.

Herdsmen indeed.

Says a little pampered mummy’s boy who has never met a herdsman in his entire life.

But eats their meat daily for his sustenance.

Herdsmen have “finished Nigerians patapata” but they left you because you are Superman.

Clap for yourself.

delpee:
Those who are old enough know the role PO played during the Abacha era. Despicable indeed. He doesn't have to lie. We all make mistakes.

When it’s your own side, it’s a “mistake”.

You people are shameless, with no morals or integrity.

You are just as corrupt as anyone else because you lie and deceive.

mightyhaze:
I very much doubt this picture.. Obi never add this kind weight in the early 90s...and ojukwu was much older than this in the 90s...but assuming it's real,so snapping a group picture now equates meeting sb one on one in an office?


I have a group picture with Obasanjo in it when he visited university of Benin to commission our medical complex in 1999... Does it mean I know him closely?

Stop Lying.

Where are your morals?

The man clearly said he’d never met Abacha.

Now you see him and Abacha snapping pictures. And you are still lying.

You “doubt the picture”.

Meaning what?

What is wrong with you?

Stop being immoral and lying. I’m sure you call yourself a ‘Christian’. What is the point, if you still lie and deceive?

watchindelta:
You are talking rubbish. Is not still the same corruption that we are talking! 🤔. Aha you self aba. I told you corruption is the problem not subsidy aba! Now only nigeria they do subsidise for the whole world? Why is our different? ask yourself. It because you ppl are so corrupt🙄 !

Use your head.

Oil is Nigeria’s biggest earner.

No serious country subsidises its biggest earner.

Where will money come from to build the country?

And the worst part was that the subsidy led to endless fuel queues caused by hoarding and shortages, all caused by smuggling the cheap oil to neighbouring West African countries.

raumdeuter:
Good question but I am sure they will lie or dribble around the question

All the major candidates last election in 2023 said they will remove subsidy

Some will say I will return subsidy but when asked how will govt function that is when they will start rambling

Whatever they say, Ask them to swear by Bible, Koran or better still Ayelala

I support use of Ayelala. 😊

Samtob90:
But you have been quoting rebased figures of 2014 to justify a better economic

Oh it’s fine when their own side does rebasing, with saints like Diezani, Ibori, Atiku and Dino Melaye.

When the other side does the rebasing, it’s “fake”.

Yankee101:
Let me educate you on GDP and how it can be stolen
It is the total value of goods and services produced within Nigeria, that’s includes crude oil sales which is our major source of fx earnings in Nigeria


If Oil sales is a bulk of the GDP and its proceeds are stolen, and taxes are the other big component and those too are stolen, how come you don’t understand that corruption erodes the effect a so called high GDP has on its population? If I was talking with primary 6 students then I would have gone into all this kind of explanation with every post I make

Oil contributes less than 16% to Nigeria’s GDP of approximately $500 billion.

You are trying to “educate” me, yet you don’t know anything.

immaculatesense:
But having the LEAST GDP translates to the citizens living in prosperity abi? Who do una like this?
No Be Juju Be Dis?

Many of them are naturally wired to be negative, so it’s not surprising the silly stuff they say.

Yankee101:
A high GDP that does not translate to better lives and infrastructure for the people but is mostly stolen is not relevant to the people

This man doesn’t know what GDP is.

And he received 16 Likes for this spectacularly ignorant comment.

GDP is the sum total of all economic activity in a country in a given year.

It’s not money that can be “stolen”.

Roger3D:
This Obi guy can lie for Africa eh

I swear.

Would he accept this excuse if it was someone else? Never.
