My opinion is that all this Tribe bashing and comparism brings views and numbers so the Nairaland mods encourage it

@Seun please be deleting all tribal comparism threads. It leads to unhealthy and unnecessary resentment

Foreign fowl, what's my concern with a useless country that has chosen to remain useless?

Also, what does this have to do with my earlier response to your earlier post?
Dumbo listen. I have seen plenty foreigners working as businessmen and expatriates making a lot of money in Naija no noise , no public shouting


Just a few Igbos making noise causing problems for a lot of others

Stop all this tribalism rubbish


I have worked in settings where merit.and output is the way individuals are seen and not tribalism

Some of your biggest customers may not be from your tribe

Travel, explore new frontiers, be polite. Be respectful, avoid politics and face your business

Didn't You see BUA chairman rejecting APC party official post

Rich igbos should push The politicians in the East to do more

You want us to hide our achievements from the same people who gloat over our misfortunes? Are you mentally stable?
I've not seen you say anything concerning all their rantings and ravings on this thread but here you are, busy spewing jargon
Stop reasoning like a local fowl. Think Global. Interact, Mix Up, Get exposed

Do You see rich Lebanese, Indians and Chinese and foreigners that have been in Nigeria for decades cashing out making noise

You would know that even Nigeria is still technologically backward than the USA was 100 years ago.
Nigeria can't even produce the drugs the citizens use without importation. Ukraine supplies us wheat. 60 years of Independence and no state on the East or elsewhere has 24 hours electricity

Nigeria does not generate up to 1 percent of Procter and Gambles worldwide revenue that's why they can leave the Country and You are supporting stupid and local tribal comparism

Just be hoping that China does not enter a major war or crisis as we as a country are dependent on their goods and products to survive

Honestly You are very foolish. I am Igbo but some of you cause problems

Shouting unnecessarily, making noise, causing problems for your fellow Igbos elsewhere by your noise. I have lived in all geopolitical areas of the Country and spent minimum of 9 years in each
There are good and rich people everywhere. My first major career opportunities was not even from Igbos.
Yes I am Igbo. We all need each other.

Africa can't even produce a common battery or ceiling fan from scratch.

Dude, get lost! Direct your useless advice at those animals that invaded the thread out of sheer envy and hate just because Ndigbo are pleased their kinsfolk are coming home for Christmas and that CAIA is recording high passenger traffic numbers! Why yap about monopolistic and gov’t-enabled Dangote and ignore embittered trolls crawling all over this thread if indeed you truly are Igbo and not a impostor or self-hating efulefu!
Honestly It's village champion mentality and lack of exposure that is worrying You. You didn't start getting exposed at a young age


You are very delusional and unenlightened. Your lack of exposure, backwardness, poor education and mental retardation shines through from your comments

Sam Altman the Founder of open AI ( IF YOU know what OPEN AI means by the way and he wore a wristwatch with the price range of 240-600 million naira(200-400k USD) and You would never even know except the American press picked it up

Small kobo, kobo and You are yapping like a hyena

The properly educated and exposed Igbos don't do all this Nonsense as it causes more problems for them

You would see foreigners that can speak Igbo and Yoruba in Naija making money without Noise

You are just creating more bad blood and animosity which is not necessary ]with all this foolish threads about your delusional views about your perceived igbo superiority.

Business customers can not only be from your tribe or Ethnic group except You want to be a village champion so You can't just come and be yapping rubbish.


Mercedes-Benz is a German origin company but the biggest customers of their cars are in China. Do You see Mercedes Benz chest beating that they control car business in China when the Chinese government can ban their cars from sale with one government order. Besides the Chinese are now one of the biggest share holders in Mercedes Benz, do you see Chinese making noise

Please fellow Nairalanders I apologise

It s unfortunate that some Igbos are still loud , myopic , delusional and focused on non essential topics


And Yes I am Igbo and I have lived in all regions in Nigeria

What the Noise about ??

There are wealthy people in each geopolitical zone and many of them don't make noise

Enter Just Dangote Refinery' and You would shut your mouth. This is just one of many assets of Aliko Dangote . Even 1% share of it is worth billions of naira. We once lived next once to a Yoruba multimillionaire maybe a billionaire now and no noise.


Some of you opening useless threads boasting of your perceived igbo superiority in my opinion did not start getting exposed at an early age. There are rich people in each zone. How many people knew David or Dbanjs parents until they entered music

South Africans bought 500 thousand new cars last year. Morocco and Egypt bought a hundred thousand+ new cars last year, Nigeria bought just 10000 new cars last year which are mainly government bought


Nigerian citizens have poor purchasing power even in Africa and You are busy measuring egos against other Nigerian tribes. Please have sense Nwanne

There are a lot of Indians, Pakistani, Lebanese , Chinese and Nigerians making money in Nigeria and nobody hears their voice

1) Get an indemand skill or offer to serve someone as apprentice for years

2) Unfortunately and in my opinion, most women see men as tool to be used to provide resources and most women don't care about your past sacrifices and only look at a man if he is presently useful to their agenda that is providing resources

However I believe A woman should be loyal if the manager has been good and ia taking difficult steps to get backup if things are not smooth


So get this in your mind and forget about that woman and forget about getting another woman( women take time and energy and resources ) and go and hustle for your self and establish your self and provide your present kids and so You can be able to establish your children in future

Also some people work to distract their mind from so many things

Also To keep.their bodies and brains and minds active

If not why are Elon Musk and Bill Gates and Warren Buffet and Larry Page still working and still being productive instead of just chilling with the wealth they have created

Why is Michael Jordan with all his money still engaging in activities.

Work sometimes keeps some people alive

I had a Boss then who would tell Me : Try to finish your work on time and go home. But sometimes there is nothing to do at home. Some people are happy working. Some use work as a way to focus their energy

Capitalism and Life itself has its own dynamics.

The children of a company founder of a private health care service decided to shutdown the company on the 2 days of the owners burial. See people complaining despite pre-notification.
How many people would go to a bank to withdraw money to meet urgent needs and then listen to the Bank tell them that they cannot get money because the staff with the key to the vault passed away

A doctor died on duty in Naija and while his colleagues were trying to resuscitate him , the patients were asking for another doctor to see them.
Doctors would injure themselves attending to patients and the patient wouldn't even say sorry.
Are the founders of Mobil, Julius Berger- Nigeria, FCMB, Apple, Toyota still alive. Work and companies would continue most times even when the Founder, Chairman, Director or workers is no more.
Next of Kin would mourn and if there is inheritance collect it and so life would go on. That's the painful truth about Life

Did the company stop the person from resigning or changing jobs


If where you buy food shuts down, won't You find an option


Please it's good for opinions to be balanced

Even the Founders and.Owners of Businesses Pass on too

Don't they pass on and Business still.continues

I entered a mortuary to deposit a loved one and saw a picture of the Late founder of the Mortuary company on the wall with his date of death written in it

So.the mortuary Should close down because the founder is Late

A place I know had the owner pass on recently, I was worried because of the nature of the business they do

Funny Enough The place is still running

Businesses would continue even if the founders or staff are no more

Even overseas, many companies are still running even though the founders are no more alive

My dad was treated for haematuria as he was peeing out blood and at a time he found it difficult to pee ,I had to rush him to general hospital where had a catheter insert in him to pass out urine.

He was on Admission for a week before he had a clear urine and was discharged with the catheter still in his bladder ,everything was okay after like weeks he started peeing blood again through his catheter,I had to take him back to the hospital and the same procedure was done ,the doctor said he had gross haematuria ,he did some test ,his PSA was checked

The doctor said it might be cancerous so he was adviced to do a Postrate biopsy,which was done and it was confirmed he has no cancer and nothing cancerous but he had benign (BPH) enlarged Postrate

The doctor advised we do a prostratectomy surgery to remove his Postrate so he can have peace of mind ,my dad is 67 and I know the effect of the surgery comes with erectile dysfunction

I want to ask if anyone has experience this ?? And is prostactetomy a good solution to his condition??
Possibilities;

Bladder Carcinoma

Prostate Problems

Past history.of trauma

Plan

- Consultant Urologist Review
- Cystoscopy
