Stephen Ugboo Goes Blind, Begs In Enugu Street To FeedNigerians need to do more and complain less, everyone can help make things better. Stephen Ugboo obviously requires public as well as private help. Those drawing attention to his plight, for instance, could set up crowed funding for him. |
TMKsouth:It wasn’t a dig, it was in response to the implication in that post and several others before that, which suggests unlike Nigeria that need "Whity" South Africans do not. Naturally I inferred from this that majority of business, factories, banks, mining concerns, railways, trains and such are black owned, built, or created by black South Africans. Are these things not black South African creations? I don’t know much about South Africa, which is why I ask questions, I asked why is it that Elun Musk, a South African, does not seem to invest in South Africa his homeland? My question obviously not only shows that I’d like to be informed, it also shows concern for fellow Africans in South Africa that I felt would benefit from employment provided by an Elun Musk's major investment in South Africa, such as giga factories for batteries, factories for car assembly, solar power stations, power cables for green vehicles, rocket parts plants, Robotics, Artificial Intelligence, Satellite manufacture, Higher altitude Internet and so on. I’m Nigeria; we’re concerned for the wellbeing of all Africans. You on the other hand seem to wish Nigeria nothing but ill will. You say you’re not IPOB but I find this hard to believe. Why would a South African be trying to stoke ethnic hatred between Nigerians, by attacking Fulani people, when this Nigerian obviously means well for South Africa? |
TMKsouth:With all due respect, I’d like a South African’s point of view on the matter and not the point of view of an IPOB fanatic obsessed with Fulani people. |
TMKsouth:Well, I for one am pleased to learn that black South Africans own the top South African companies - the banks, hotel chains, manufacturing industries, De Beers and such. Still, although Elon Musk is only a white fella, by all reckoning, he is an asset that really ought to be encouraged or embarrassed into investing in South Africa instead of India. His family achieved all that they did by utilising South African resources not Indian; Elon needs to give something back to South Africa even if black South African entrepreneurs are doing a good job lifting majority of the poor whites, Asians and Arabs out of poverty. |
What would South Africa be like without border control, lax immigration and ruled by leaders that have no regard for nationality, letting Zimbabweans, Angolans, Mozambicans and all the other nations in the region and further afield troop into South Africa as they wish because South African leaders view them as brothers with primordial relationships that Europeans came and meddled with by creating borders ? |
No border control, no nation. |
Wouldn’t it be easier to simply tell him to stop singing? ![]() |
Great, we need other governors emulating this. Nothing stops us mass producing programmers and software engineers. |
IronGalaxy:For practical purposes, perhaps the way Nigerians cry withy, which is in an economic sense mostly, is worth looking at dispassionately. For example, this particular Whity Elon Musk is by all measure quite an exceptional human being, one that could add great value to South Africa, his country of birth, lifting many out of poverty and providing employment for many more. Elon and family gained much from South Africa but South Africa looses out to India what has India given them, why has he turned his back on South Africa? |
Childofaking:True, but they won’t believe. Local Nigerians are the type of people that will be complaining that they only have, yams, plantain, beans and disgusting crabs to eat while in the West Oyibo eat sophisticated fish and chips, spaghetti, burgers and ken turkey. Nigerians have been thought to see no value in what they have, which is a precursor to turning them into Consumers of Western products, the type of situation that keeps capitalism turning over nicely. |
Build hospitals in Nigeria, beware of Indians. In spite of government, even the millionaires of which Nigeria has many can build chains of affordable hospitals let alone specialist ones. |

orisa37:You’re really desperate with this your dead-on-arrival divide Nigeria wishes. Due to mass illegal migration, refuge migrations, international terrorists, and so on, the entire world is struggling to sustain internationally recognised national boarders, a situation even more desperate in Africa, and you’re here thinking you can influence Nigeria into becoming a nation where citizens cannot move as they wish within Nigeria based on tribe. Even something as immediately achievable as forcing Nigeria government to redirect your Nigerian money, earmarked to build railway line for Niger republic, on Nigeria, you cannot do. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=keWu3mRTXQE Hundreds of Africans, Asians and people from the Middle East are also among the mass migrants |
Rugaria: Useless African governments joining hands with the useless Nigerian governmentWho is fooling who? Nigerians would be stupid to believe Ghana isn’t supporting Biafra.... They are supporting Biafra not because they love Igbo people... |
If Nigeria isn’t wealthy enough to ensure that every single repentant terrorist is tagged in some way that ensures they are monitored, then rehabilitating them back into communities - in the way that white advisers from the West advice African nations and would never themselves do - is a very bad idea, a bad unsustainable idea. |
Salatavor:Believe it or not, Salatavor, there aren’t many polices forces internationally whose officers would tolerate the pulling and pushing these Nigerian women subjected the Nigerian police office to in the Video in spite of the police Officer’s prior inhumane assault. Do you know that I was watching CNN or Aljazeera’s coverage of some of the disturbances that followed George Floyd’s death, and on one late evening capture, a black woman could be seen remonstrating with a white police officer that had manhandled her off camera. She flayed at the officer, as women do when they become irate, and the white officer’s police partner, an African American, stepped between them and gave the black woman a vicious left hook that knocked her down and flat out. I was shocked that the news readers did not remark on the event when viewing cut back to them in the studio. Before this I had thought that the clip was to highlight this brutal incident but it seems the clip was in order to highlight something else. Her attack was merely incidental. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2rbZRr9q_qo This may be the incident; however, i can see that the black woman punched the white officer, which wasn’t in my recollections Bonus: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kSktBppDiLg I’m not condoning police brutality, all these officers deserve suspension and the publics anger, I’m just concerned that we Nigerians are working ourselves up to such a state of righteous indignation , we are willing to tear ourselves apart in the belief that we are uniquely terrible people enduring uniquely terrible circumstances. |
RAbayomi:Very regrettable, so embarrassing; he must be an immoral sort of man, really, if he will stoop to this low level of discourse popular with unenlightened Nigerian masses and beloved of white supremacists, just for they sake of the relevance required to earn him invitation to the lucrative lectures and interview circuits. He obviously doesn’t give a Bleep about Nigerians if he did he wouldn’t be willing to assist Nigeria over the precipices in order to keep him in the lifestyle he is accustomed with loads of future material. |
He is a black man not a Nigerian. Only black men are ready to insult thire heritage because of Shoes. |
Quaddafi29:Indeed, cowpat makes excellent aircraft bio fuel. |
generalwo:Thanks for trying to make people better reason but we are in trouble in Nigeria because of mobile phones and internet access. Everyone has mobile phone and opinions, evidence be buggered. I’m beginning to see that the biggest conspiracies is why the West is working hard to broaden internet usage among as much Nigerians as possible when we could better do with this type of effort in the power sector. ![]() |
She's now ready to own a slave, women are more powerful than men realise. |
cutievik:What’s the point of going as far as he has, even stating that he is prepared to die, but reveals no names, leaving everyone guessing or pointing fingers at past suspects. These uncertainties are possibly more dangerous for Nigeria than naming names, no? And I’m thinking that the way I’ve come to view those that post on Niaraland, individuals are guilty by association with tribe, if names are revealed, Niralanders would accept their guilt largely based on tribe .Imagine if he points fingers at Jonathan, will the same enthusiasm be maintained by those that are now eye-balls out, waiting for some northern figure to be named. The reverse would be the case for those that view themselves as Northerners first. They would never accept that fingers pointed at Jonathan are fabrications, no matter how blatant. Nigerians are having difficulty adopting the objective mindset. |
I still dont get it, what did this naval officer with 35 years of meritorious service in the Nigerian military intelligence reveal? Which national figures did he name to begin with before evidence can be sort? Please o I have no ego when it comes to learning... |
America should ignore goading that arise from the current debacle, cut and run without prejudice since right now America is haemorrhaging money intervening in these primitive Islamic places, propping up N.A.T.O and maintaining outdated post Second World War international order and relations. The financial burned is capable of breaking America, especially with the economic rise of China that America needs to counter industrially. They're haemorrhaging money better spent tackling US dept, and transitioning US industrial military complex to one based on new technology such as in the Green Energy sector, Robotics, AI, Genetics, Astrophysics etc and inevitable space exploration. I won’t doubt that America would be twice as advanced as now, had she invested most of that spent on European Allies, West friendly World Order and the questionable interests that powerful lobbies have in the Middle East, dodgy research and destabilising certain African nations. |
Crowwejihadist:Are the Afghan babies? Bidden was right to pull US out. The world needs to leave Afghanistan to stew in its own juices for a few decades, they’ll eventually strive to create a tolerable society for all sides. America should deal with terror repercussions, which escape Intelligence, as it occurs. |
umunaija:Niger Republic not Nigeria, Niger Republic is not yet part of Nigeria. The Nigeriens later counter attacked Bokoharam and dispatched over 50 of the terrorist to where their virgins wait - Sha la la la la la la la -Sha la la la la la la la- Sha la la la la la la la- where their virgin is waiting for them. ![]() |
Terrorists attack on Kabul airport was predictable. Commodore Olakunle Olawunmi (A military intelligence veteran with 35 years experience) has spilled it all and says he doesn't care if he is killed.He may as well mention names. |
Actually, Nigeria used to build or assemble an aircraft similar to those Musharks bought from Pakistan. Had we continued - lack of continuity being a part of Nigeria’s organisational problems – we’d by now have indigenous aircraft building capabilities. Air beetle, I believe it was called; the military built them... Results of a just now quick google check: 1) Did you know the "Air Beetle", a trainer aircraft of the NAF was mass assembled in 1989 in Nigeria by NAF & Dornier Aviation Nigeria. The Air beetle is a Van's RV-6A kit built sport aircraft. The NAF produced 60 of the planes using local labour. @asemotahttps://twitter.com/uwagbale_/status/1233586796707053569 https://www.wingsherald.com/wp-content/uploads/RV-6A-Air-Beetle-300x200.jpg |
