The Kenyan protests were against specific stuff.

They were rejecting their govt raising taxes.

That was what united the protesters.

Nigeria’s protest is about WHAT, exactly?

“Bad governance”.

What the flying fck is that?

The problem with such ambiguous, nebulous, generalised grievance is that it is susceptible to interpretation depending on one’s financial status, economic ideology, ethnicity, etc.

So if you are from the regions who overwhelmingly voted for the current regime, you would be more inclined to give them more time to implement their agenda.

If you are from other regions, you would be less inclined to be patient, and be ready to hit the streets, while denouncing the govt as useless etc.

So you need a SPECIFIC grievance that everyone can relate to. Say inflation.

Or kidnapping.

Or power supply.

Until you become more FOCUSED, and concentrate on the single most pressing issue at any given time, you will not be united enough to hold nationwide demonstrations.

It certainly won’t be widespread as occurred in Kenya.

But good luck. 🤞

Iamgrey5:
While go and protest in your region makes a lot of sense.

Despite our travels and inter marriage as Nigerians, every region in Nigeria is still about 70% indigenous, going up to 90% indigenous in some cases.

So it will be unfair for people from other regions to cause problems or civil disturbance for nearly 70% of people who are not particularly interested in the protest.

If it's protest about the federal government, I will support you go to Abuja and create enough problems for them their.


N

Thank you.

One thing many of these guys forget is that Lagos is not the capital of Nigeria.

If you want to protest, go to the nation’s capital and protest.

Or you can even go to your village and protest from there.

Hypocrisy, you no go meet your state Governor, na Tinubu name the Almijiris dey call?

That your graph, I'm shocked that Cross River state is the least.

They have no oil there?

CyrusVI:
You are Two-faced
In the other threads where some Yoruba people said they were against the protest, you accused them of being tribal and that u would protest, but now that your brothers over there against it, this is all u have to say

You talk from every sides of the mouth. You are representing your confused people well

He’s a typical disgusting Obidient with no morals.

Everyday a new absurdity in the south east.

A region of clowns.

Tell me how one idiot in Finland can be controlling an entire region of 50 million+ people in Nigeria?

iLegendd:
Your depression is hereditary. The moment I scanned and saw caps everywhere, I knew I'll never win an argument with a frustrated person.

My brother, whatever you said, you're right. I wish you and your lineage speedy recovery. I won't reply again because I'll never win someone who's emotionally invested and frustrated. For me, I have zero feelings. Even if you abuse me, I won't be mad at you, so I have to protect your fragile ego and feelings.

Oga boss, respect! You won and stay blessed.

My friend will you go and sit down.

See him forming Saint after talking rubbish!

It is from this thread I know most Nigerians have not seen a farm. What is innovative in that? It is obvious what they planted is either cassava or potatoes which Nigeria has an abnudant of. As a matter of fact, Nigeria is the biggest producer of both cassava and potato in Africa and yam in the WWW yet some people are insulting Nigeria here because of two Asians who look like they are playing with sand. Ignorance na disease tru tru

Don’t mind them.

Useless idiots.

Franking:
Nigerians are actually intellectually lazy. Imagine if Europeans or even Asians tap palms for their wine. The mode of tapping would have changed. But Nigerians have been tapping it the same way for centuries.

SEE YOUR STUPID COMMENT.

Indians and Pakistanis drink palmwine.

They call it ‘Toddy’.

You do know they have palm trees in “Asia”?

They tap palmwine using the exact same method as Nigerian tappers.

So what will you say now, Mr racial inferiority complex?

oluwaseyi0:
Innovation is the bedrock of civilization

Unfortunately African do not naturally seek innovation like their counterparts in other continent

You are talking rubbish.

No country “naturally” seeks innovation. It all depends on govt policies. If govt policy encourages innovation by discouraging imports in particular, and vastly increasing power supply, innovation will be the order of the day.

Nigerians are very innovative.

Do you know how many inventions are lying fallow in our universities?

OkpaNsukkaisBae:
If na only church girls remain I'll rather be single for life

Honestly. They even repulse me.

Church idiots.

Has this man actually completed a single major project in that state?

It all seems very slow with him.

Or is his real name Slowudo?

This is why I laugh when I see folks saying Nigeria should “break up and let everybody answer his father’s name”.

Once you do that, ALL THIS IS GONE.

Who will send your Biafra republic or Oduduwa republic or Arewa republic?

Unknown, mushroom republics?

It will take DECADES to build up any sort of credibility or international interest in your existence.

Even Ghana will become your boss.

What Nigeria is experiencing is the kind of international exposure that other countries often go to war to achieve, because it is a guarantor of all sorts of good things, from investment to tourism, to political influence, to cultural influence, that can transform your nation and make it a MAGNET of world attention.

VALUE IT!

Many Africans can’t stand the sight of Nigerians today.

They just can’t understand how we managed to become so big on the international scene.

It’s a complete mystery to them!

Bump!

Never4getU:
See why igbos aren't considered interest party in the equation or scheme of things in Nigeria. They are too petty and myopic.

Tribalism is synonym to igbo politics. Something other tribes will consider part of the game of politics the igbos would apply emotion to it

Because they are uncivilised and lack common sense.

Trustyourself:
PUBLIC DISPLAY OF PSYCHOSIS:

The following factors affirm your irredeemable idiotic disposition.

1) Nothing is wrong with borrowing only if such borrowed funds are injected into critical sectors of the economy without being embezzled like your current thieves in Abuja are currently doing.

2) Considering the little time these scavengers have spent in Abuja, data shows that they are most likely to record the highest in the borrowing history of your country both the military and civilian govts alike and nothing to show for it at the end of their looting period.

3) They met inflation rate at 28.9% (which was still high), but today, your looting machineries have landed your country on 41% inflation rate and many more disaster your fellow yahoo politicians have brought in just one year of their looting competition

You are not even a Nigerian.

Who asked you to comment?

Have you finished eating your fellow Igbos?

Go and ‘sit at home’ where you belong, before Simon Ekpa sends his thugs to whup your asss.

Outcast Emergency Nigerian with “opinion”.

iLegendd:
You have a point, but sign of respect is when you visit someone personally, not when you invite someone. Putin visited Kim in N.Korea. He didn't stay in his office and say, "Kim, come to Russia."

YOU HAVE NO SENSE, JUST LIKE A TYPICAL IPOB MUMU.

Tinubu was invited on a STATE VISIT to China.

Do you know what a STATE VISIT is?

Do you know that a STATE VISIT which lasts for a minimum 3 to 4 days, is far more expensive, prestigious, and glamorous than Xi just flying into Abuja for a quick discussion with Tinubu?

Do you realise that Kim Jong Un would have MUCH PREFERRED a STATE VISIT to Moscow as opposed to Putin flying in to talk with him briefly?

Because you have a BUSH, VILLAGE MENTALITY, you are seeing it like a primitive villager for whom an invitation is a summons to see a ‘superior’.

Drop your village mentality. Geopolitics is very different from your primitive reasoning.

The growing international affection and love for Everything Nigerian is off the chain!

Everyone either wants to taste Nigerian food, meet a Nigerian man, visit Nigeria, talk like Nigerians, I mean, What’s going on?

It’s obviously our Afrobeats stars that have turned the Nigerian Brand into a very hot cake in the international community.

lexy2014:
Your emotional outburst has not answered the questions.

how is nigeria a world power?

is nigeria not arguably China's biggest African debtor in terms of infrastructure?

is it not a case of creditor summoning debtor?

I replied you. So go fck yourself.

IPOB terrorist outcast.

johnayo01:
They Chinese don't care about us, they are only concerned about what they will squeeze from us. And I tell you the truth this lifeline they are about to give tinubu will not be in favour of the Nigerian people.

You talk so much RUBBISH.

Oh sure, Tinubu is just gonna fly all the way to Beijing and give Xi everything he wants, and receive nothing, or next to nothing.

After all Tinubu is a stupid man who is just happy to stand before Xi to take pictures, while dashing him all Nigeria’s wealth.

Ignorant, stupid school dropouts turned expert via Nairaland.

Trustyourself:
For more borrowing...

AND WHAT IS WRONG WITH BORROWING?

Does your thick, bush, illiterate skull think that a 35 billion dollar annual budget is enough to develop Nigeria?

You don’t know that every country depends on development funding?

Stupid illiterates.

Just get lost from here!

Air heads!

lexy2014:

See how you reason like a fcking rat. idiot.

Every country on Earth borrows money including China and the US which are the world’s biggest debtor nations.

But none of the nations has ever described their various state visits to each other as “creditor summoning debtor”, except a stupid pig IPOB terrorist cannibal like you.

Stupid worthless wretch.

Yaribanzaonic:
Worthless Government that is praised by failures and Propagandist.

Tomorrow you will claim IGBOs are the problem. How can a Government that claims to be progressive be a disaster and disgrace to Governance.


Will you say it's Peter OB.. IPOB.. IGBOs?

Very shameless people...

Nonsense

IPOB OUTCAST OPINION.

SPIT.

gidgiddy:
This is the kind of topic I like. Support Igbos exiting this long failed British colonial contraption called Nigeria

START BY GETTING THE 18 MILLION IGBOS IN THE NORTH TO RETURN HOME TO THE EAST.

THEN GET THE 18 MILLION IGBOS IN THE WEST TO RETURN TO THE EAST.

OR ARE THEY WAITING TO BE DEPORTED AS ILLEGAL ALIENS ONCE BIAFRA HAPPENS?

SURELY YOU MUST KNOW YOU WILL ALL BE DEPORTED BACK TO IGBOLAND.

SO YOU MIGHT AS WELL START LEAVING NOW INSTEAD OF TYPING RUBBISH ONLINE.

DEPENDENT BEGGARS FEELING IMPORTANT.

SPIT.

Bullfallo:
they barroed from time and sessions. Your your country borrows year in years with nothing to shows for it.

The reason the foreign country and imf is detesting to African country. More taxes and unfavorable policies just so they can gett money loans.

Tinubu is borrowing to buy private jet added to the one buhari borrowed to build niger railway.

Illiterate and ignorant response.

Bullfallo:
Its very clear that Africans can nor longer forge ahead or run their annual budget without borrowing. For how long will they continue to borrow?. We are not at war yet we are borrowing like a country fighting war from all fronts. Civilization and modernization have consequences. Habe we gotten to the peak where African need to collapse to restart from stage age once again?

Look at what is happening in Kenya. Economy crisis and debts. Similar things to all over Africa.

My friend every country borrows money. Stop disturbing people.

KnowAll:
How many times have you seen Afghanistan going to borrow. We need to look inwards. Grow what we eat and consume what we produce even made in Nigerian cars. The problem is we are obsessed with western Goods.

Do you know the Afghanistan’s repaired every single military hardware left behind including helicopters. And another thing because they did not buy things from abroad their currency is the strongest in South East Asia.

''The Taliban's recapture of Afghanistan in August 2021 has had dire economic, political, and security consequences. With the world's lowest living standards, Afghanistan is experiencing ongoing economic, health, and humanitarian crises, and food insecurity is especially acute.''

Somebody needs to haul you and your ilk off to Afghanistan, so you can enjoy that Paradise that you see there.

You can even pass through Somalia to get the full enjoyment.

Stark raving idiots.

RepoMan007:
So many possibilities but white man involvement doesnt stop our people from defeating, as we like to put it, "bandits", from the forests.

But doesn’t it mean the govt is compromised and even complicit?

Are they unaware that these foreigners are involved?

They cannot be unaware. So why are they silent about it?

There is definitely an AGENDA we are not being told about, and it involves the foreigners and the FG working in cahoots.

IkeOnyia:
Congratulations to them but let's be sincere, it is a Chinese product with a Nigerian badge.

Always a fool typing rubbish.

If it’s made in Nigeria, it’s a Nigerian product. End of story.

Get that into your thick head.

oluwaseyi0:
Even Benin?

At times like this I miss Abacha and other military regimes. None of these countries ever messed with Nigerians during Nigerian military govts, because they knew there would be instant response.

If this was Abacha, just one phone call to that stupid Benin leader ordering him to release that Nigerian man or risk military invasion, would have ended the crisis.
