My friend satellites have at most five years lifespan to function effectively and from that they fade slowly into space junks. It is nothing to boast about for a bigger economy. Nigeria is my second home, but still does not not go anywhere in terms of infrastructural development, while in SA developments are hitting on rapidly. That's why one would ask if the economy of Nigeria is for real or just for the figures.

EroZA:
hey you can you stop diluting this thread with your nonsense.... share your tears on another thread and let colonel augububu and mark Henry do the work for you...

Msauza:
Bigger economy with nothing to show for it.

Patchesagain:
first, you didnt turn BRICS down

Second, we have all the buisness we want in BRICS. And BRICS is going to be invaluable in South Africa beating Nigeria to a permanent seat on the UN Security Council.

Third, MINT is a joke and does not actually exist

Fourth, you are still lagging well behind us in development, and we are still a bigger destination for investment. We are economically colonising you as we speak.

GreenandGold:
Dude dream on... South Africa is the monster here, your economy is a fraud some economists suggest so... you have no industrial electricity yet your manufacturing sector is indicated as larger than our, its basic fraud.


South Africa has 45% of Africa's electricity and 40% of Africas railway systems, 75% of Africa's top 30 largest companies... deepest port, largest port etc

Of course your economy is a fraud, all the above indicators prove so.

Msauza:
Your friend reason without a head.

agaugust:
South Africa too could not build her own jet fighters or even ordinary air to air missiles to replace the weak Mirage jets France sold to you, you kept complaining of Cuba's MiG-23 air superiority throughout the war. So what makes you better?

The G-5 and G-6 artillery technology was imported and sold to South Africa by a Canadian, while the Nuclear bomb technology was imported from Israel and sold to you.

South African arms industry was built by secret b..reast feeding from oversees throughout the arms embargo. Learn to quote history

And your population is 3 times the size

You need to grow your GDP by 60% to be as wealthy as we are.

Nigeria is utterly insignificant. Confirmed by the former BRIC nations.

MikeZA:
. Hi Less!!!

Ask your uncle augubugbu for rules please.

"Mike..ZA" is to be avoided at all costs or you'll eat humble pie.

GoodGirl2:
Any self-respecting Nigerian will not be labelled a scammer or whatever adjective you feel stereotypes you guys.

Secondly, I can name fellow country mates who've invested in North Africa, Central Africa, Eastern Africa and some Southern African countries. I'm still trying to figure out why their successes and achievements should be a cause for me to jump up and down in my living room. That's what I do not understand. May be I'm just not an emotional person......I mean....I don't know...

Lastly, many thanks for the insult-free post.

MikeZA:
Remember Nigeria needs SA than we do need NA.

We don't buy arms from Nigeria

You were the bloke who claimed Nigeria had an advanced defence industry than SA?

ZDee:
My Igbo slave still getting nightmares about master, seems you can never get me out of your mind....

GoodGirl2:
Angry much? Is the truth that hard to stomach? Any opinion that differs from yours must come from a Nigeria hater, abi?
I responded to a PUBLIC post on a PUBLIC forum. I would respond in the same manner to anyone, regardless of nationality, who thinks that an individual from country X investing in a foreign country is an indication of country X's economic superiority. It's really laughable, because many of us know that it's a personal investment, rather than a national one. Every country, and I mean every country has got entrepreneurs who invest in foreign countries. I just don't get to see citizens of those countries go "jelly-jelly" about it. LOL.

From my observation, honest, hardworking Nigerians are rarely labelled conmen. If people abroad think you are a conman, then prove them wrong. Dangote has, hasn't he?

By the way, next time you want give an opinion avoid the insults and tantrums. They always create an impression that logic had failed and must be replaced by insults. Grow a thick skin and quit getting emotional over the opinions of strangers online. Just a little advice. Thank me later.

Acidosis:
I'm done here. You hypocrite should keep deceiving yourselves.


The same men that can barely give N5k to a woman without asking her out or "bedding her" are condemning the truth.


I'm out jare

GoodGirl2:
It's very foolish of you to think that Nigerians are the only people who invest outside their own country.
I really wonder why majority of Nigerians get emotional over an achievement made by a fellow citizen when they really have nothing to show for themselves.

CityNG:
In real life with you driving or on Playstation? Lol

jjwaterfalls:
What do u expect 4rm a developed country

obailala:
Very thought provoking

We have 5 of our pastors in the world's top 10 richest list
We have our political leaders also ranking as some of the richest in the world.
We have about the highest number of private jet owners in the world (Nigeria has more private jets than commercial aircrafts)

Yet we also have some of the poorest people in the world; our nation doesn't even rank amongst the first 100 rich nations?

Tallesty1:
Before I start this, I want to make it clear that I'm not a sexist.

People say it is a man's world, and honestly, it is. I will show you how.

Nature gave us some bonus and women gave their support. Even if a man forgives a cheating wife, the women(society) will not.

Here are the few reasons some men find it difficult to forgive a cheating wife(They are what I heard men say. I didn't author some of them)

1: EGO:- It certainly has alot to do with their ego being bruised. The thought that another man was able to sleep with Someone they believed they had "ownership" of breaks them to pieces as most of them think the women incapable of sex without emotions, meaning the woman loves another. Remember men are like a lioness that can kill most animals for its cubs but will not allow another animal to even play with its cubs.

2: GUILT:- If a woman cheats, the man will never forgive not only the woman but himself no matter whose fault it is. He feels he has failed as a man to protect and keep his own.

3: THEY CAN'T FORGET:- When a man is making love with his wife, it is a sacred rituals the way she moan shows that his sacrifice has been accepted. So if she makes love with another man he will be thinking the temple is no more sacred and when he make love to her and she moan, it will be disgusting cause it will be like that is the way she moaned for the other guy!

4: YOU HAVE LOST HER IF SHE CHEATS:- Female infidelity is often much more damaging to a marriage. Don’t get me wrong: Male cheating is definitely harmful. But when a woman fools around, it’s often the beginning of the end of the relationship. For men, cheating often tends to be opportunistic—they’re in the wrong place at the wrong time and the cheating doesn’t necessarily mean anything emotionally. In fact a man can sleep with a woman today and not remember her again but for a woman to have sex with you(in most cases)you must win her heart to win her body.

5: HE PAID YOUR PRICE:- I guess i gotta be blunt here. I know we call it marriage but I think women are being bought in a way. Don't kill me yet, let's analyze it. He buys engagement ring. Proposes to you, you accept then he decides to see your people. Your people accept him and give him a list containing heaven and earth. He agrees to pay, he pays for everything and when your parents feel they have collected enough, they hand you over to him. Then you automatically change your name(Change of ownership) which confirms that you are now his own.

I have seen where women sponsored their marriage and the men don't care when they cheat soI believe the day you stop asking for head-cutting bride price for us to marry then we won't bother much, imagine paying all that money and she gives it to another man..

On a serious note. A cheat is a cheat and you can't quantify cheating. Who is cheating doesn't matter. Stay Faithful

You are right

- Mutiny
- lose town after town
- commit war-crimes
- desert
- refuse to return to the front
- sell weapons to the enemy
- shoot at commanders
- blow up ships
- top the world piracy rankings
- top the world terror rankings
- lose jets

You are absolutely right, we couldent do any of that if we tried

Reminder: In the last 18 months South Africa has vanquished no less than 2 rebel groups
Nigeria has yet to defeat one in the last 20 years.

icemann:
Your are joking right?

What do you mean by engine recovery?

auhanson:
Ok! i now get you as in not so good in handling and stamina as the then world best production car..Now let see wht the Corvette Z06 has to offer as a product from GM. I have not always been so keen about Nissan product, be it a super car or family sedan, suv's or otherwise. Sometimes wonders happen on wheels from the least expected manufacturers. For instance, you can imagine Chevrolet Camaro Z/28, that heavy box beating the likes of Alfa Romeo 4C, BMW i8, BMW M4, Ford Fiesta ST, Jaguar F-Type R Coupe, Nissan GT-R Nismo, Porsche 911 Turbo S, Subaru STI, and Volkswagen GTI. , ....and making it to no 1 on the list as the world best drivers car. It looks like the Americans are taking over this biz from the Germans.
I should like to open a thread on that pretty soon. So watch out

auhanson:
Pls tell me something about the Nissan GTR. Can you throw more light on this?

Henry120:
It is a discussions thread, and were we come to let out stress. No country on planet earth is self-sufficient in full scale wars, everybody has to import one item or the other.

Henry120:
I'm done with this issue, but I'd like to say something before I dump this discussion for good. One of you south africans said I was lying about the acquisition of OPV's from china and india. We are going to receive three stealth corvette OPV's from china in 2013 and a couple more from india also in 2013. You either believe it or you doubt. No hassle. @ syndergb. However, I must admit of being guilty of exaggeration, when I said NN would surpass SAN in 2013.

True, we are behind south africa in areas of infrastructure, but we are developing infrastructure all round, too all peoples of nigeria, and not just focusing on the major cities, like is the case in south africa. Besides we got eko atlantic city, the single biggest project anywhere in the world at the moment. As we speak land reclamation is 80% and some developers have started construction on their buildings. Rail system, lagos and rivers state are respectively developing light and monorail systems. In ECONOMY and business over the last years nigerian owned companies have recorded massive growth rates, young techies are doing very well, while the south african economy is moribound barely growing. Infact on this continent nigeria would soon be number 1. True, we still have a lot of catching up to do in infrastructure, when compared to SA, but to come and claim that all your infrastructure is 20-30 years ahead of nigeria is pure foolishness.

@ andrewza I never said the NNS ANDONI is a warship, I have consistently referred to it as a SEAWARD DEFENCE BOAT, which it rightly is, I don't know when I said it is a warship.

It is a military discussion, so no need for country bashing. I was however referring to a post made by andrewza, in which he took a swipe at us, and which I returned the favour.

My main reason for posting is to distort the notion which must of you have about nigeria's military been only about numbers. I want to say categorically that since that is what you guys believe, you lot a terribly mistaken. Like my fellow country man has harped on over and over again, you lot sound like you can just mount a blockade like we don't have a navy capable of defending the territory. You talk about oil, damaging an oil industry which accounts for just about 20% of our GDP. Okay GOODLUCK. While coming over remember to come with ZUMA and JULIUS MALEMA.
