exactly ,ask him bro

I keep on telling people , don't insult your country online mostly on social media , because it's an avenue for other countries to insult y back using your analysis even though they haven't been to Nigeria ,

i learnt it the hard way when I got to UAE,
every other Africa keep asking me ,why is there scam in your countries ,why do u ladies like prostitution,why is nigeria govt always looting ,and these people asking me these questions have not been to Nigeria before ,but they read the comments most of us say on our country face .

At the bold, they’re mostly not Nigerian. Ghana (their people) is Nigeria's PR company online. When it comes to information giving, the own Nigeria's ass.

It’s only now that I understand Jonathan’s PHD. He must have been very smart to foresee that Nigeria needed a PR organization and he created one but Nigerians abused the idea. Although I also can see why some Nigerias disliked it, they may have worried that Jonathan created the Qungo in order to publicize his own government and cover his polices in glory.

aysnoopy:
Ok, we've heard you
But I'm telling u today, Nigeria is more than 50years backward from other countries in this world

Are you well ?

RuudVanNisteroy:
The Chinese built our railways;We should hire the Namibians to build Our Road.

Vann, as you well know, Nigeria is not incapable of building good roads or paying for good road. If Nigeria wants to build good roads, the roads in Namibia are below standards. Nigeria could pay for better roads than those build by the Chinese in the last decade so why would we ask Namibia?

Nigeria’s road are poor because those in charge of infrastructure want poor roads. Poor road building is Nigeria’s version of Planned obsolescence.

Nigeria’s current insecurity has its origin in Nigeria interfering in Western world’s machinations in West Africa and Western world’s plans for mineral exploitations in the region. Nigeria gained nothing for her efforts, not lasting peace as apparent by issues unravelling in the Sahel, starting in Mali and not even recognition in Africa. And here we are at it again meddling in France’s West Africa playground; Yes, meddling even if France and the Western powers give the public impression that they welcome all efforts at resolving this (only publicly) intractable problem in Mali. I can see Nigeria already burdening herself with the Mali issue while the other West African states tag along so that they can later boast that they were all involved in trying to resolve West Africa issues not only Nigeria.

Nigeria needs to spend her resources on battening down the hatches of Nigeria against the coming Sahelian Terrorists storm and leave these annoying West African nations to stew in the juices of their bad mouthing us. Already France is building Foreign Legion forts again on African soil, to the delight of naïve African soles that hold the hope France is preparing to battle these jihadist not knowing that France is building these forts in order to be closer to their meddling efforts in West Africa and to better assist many of these - Not-Destroying-As-Fast-As-Hoped- jihadist that are in effect Frances proxies

Roads in China. I am looking beyond this for Nigeria, someone is mentioning primitive Botswana .

Please, Nigerians stop filling the heads of your leaders with longing to be like Kenya because they will be happy, since Nigeria is already better than Kenya. Your longings will only make them see that you are blind. So instead of raking their brains, trying to figure how to give you better than China while still embezzling money, they will no longer try hard, instead they will do nothing, since a deteriorated Nigeria will be same as Kenya. Perhaps this is why Abuja is being left to deteriorate.

RuudVanNisteroy:
The journey of a thousand miles begins with a step. Lets us start emulating Botswana and Namibia before we move on to Netherlands.

God forbid, lol.

RuudVanNisteroy:
Why do you say say about Botswana. It is the least corrupt country in Africa and rated high in good governance.

Who rated them?

We Nigerians are a very ambitious people, let’s not spoil this mindset by setting lower standard for ourselves by copying average just because our leaders have been neglectful by setting their eyes on other goals. Settling for average sometimes because we want to tell ourselves, we do not want to be arrogant, will not lead to the type of Nigeria we want.

Let’s not copy, let’s innovate; however, if we must copy, lets copy the very best. Botswana is not one of them.

How I wish every one of us, uncomfortable or sick and tired of the old-gagoo’s ruining every potentially fabulous and life-affirming thread such as this one with tribalism, would just leave soon as we see such remarks. I wonder how long Mods would tolerate the offensive diatribes.

See what a team of amutures Chines rocketeers did for thire Company

See what a team of armature Chinese rocketeers did for their Company, SpaceLinks. I believe Nigeria has the people capable of building our own armature rockets, not this sophisticated, but ones good enough to reach sub-orbit and return, slowed by parachutes. We need to do this without foreign help. The exercise will do us good, both technologically and esteemwise as a people. In addition, national or state government or wealthy Nigerians need to buy a huge telescope for the Nigeria Space center in order to build on what we have on the ground and generate interest among the young. The space centre with this telescope, library rocket models etc would becomes a popular Schools trip venue. In Nigeria, we do not do enough of school trips in order to stimulate the interest of young people and nourish their imaginations.

Masterkernel1:
Close that hole in your face, don't you have shame at all? Just imagine your words.

He's right, Uk, America etc are creators and master crooks; they are Blue Whales in the ocean of corruption, Nigerians are mere minnows.

womenareapes:
which beautiful and gorgeous girls in Nigeria are you talking about?

is like you have sign contract with poverty that's why you are spitting this rubbish!

shit fall on your head

Beautiful and gorgeous girls full Nigeria. The Sudanese girl is nice looking too.

Jaqenhghar:
Where are the homegrown stuff?

All over Nigeria.

Jaqenhghar:
Shey you people were jubilating when the borders were closed. Some swore that other countries will starve because of this. Last time I checked no one is starving

Some people should stop weeping louder than the bereaved. See, the neighbors do not care about our closed borders and we Nigerians like our borders closed, so win, win all round. Nigeria need and want those borders closed, let us patronize homegrown stuff.

Defence Procurement Ripoffs in Niger By Citizens & The Inevitable Nigeria Angle..

I didn’t read the article.

Whyem15:
So some idiots in the defense ministry decided to give $394 million to a foreign individual for weapons procurement and he has now disappeared so they had no choice than to declare him wanted. Even if he is found, can that amount be recovered?
Honestly, heads need to roll for this.

If I’m not mistaken this happened in Niger not Nigeria. Oga Beegs coverd it, see below.

Someone mentioned that closing the borders has not made us fatter but it has not made us skinnier either. This means that closing the borders did not result in their gloomy predictions of our demise. We need to close borders then evolve from this into tighter management of our borders.

We need to double close those borders if possible and close more stretches of borders including.

In the 80's or 90's US was in the market for lobsters, Nigeria gave them lobsters, loads of the stuff and, shortly, US and other producers bulked at the competition from Nigeria. Next, it was declared that Nigerian lobsters were polluted, and that was the end of that for Nigeria. Similar happened with wheat, if memory serves me well, this was in the late 80's, i was young, and so I rather caught the news in the peripheries of my young awareness of life outside fun. I believe US threatened Nigeria, something to do with, balance of trade, i.e. US stated Nigeria wasn’t buying as much from the US as the US was buying from Nigeria.

I guess I’m stating that world trade somewhat sanctions Africa, which is why Fair Trade products came to be. Some of this accounts for Africa’s relative poverty.

Read up on Politics of Hunger where you will learn how in Agriculture, for instance, by EU, America, Asia and South America sanctioning what African nations can sell in the international market, African nations find themselves growing a narrow range of stuff. Since the range is narrow, many African nations grow the same or similar produce that then creates a glut, driving down prices for thire goods.

Nigerians shouldn’t fall for the Afonja v Ipob/Igbo bate. They are diversions.

Ghana troll houses media output: notice how the lock-down of Nigerian businesses in Ghana and reactions to this and suddenly on Niaralend there is a preponderance of threads featuring the, "they don’t like Nigerians" or "Nigerians are this or that" topics.

Nigerians need to wake up.

Ghana Troll Farms

See surprising location of Russian troll factory
Russia is interfering with the 2020 US presidential election, but not where you might expect. CNN's Clarissa Ward heads to Ghana, where a Russian troll farm has been based, and confronts people on the ground about the operation. This is a never-before seen look at how Russia is once again trying to influence America's democracy.

Except many houses like these are not influnceing America’s democracy, they’re targeting Nigeria, trolling Nigeria with all sorts of demeaning bait threads and comments.

Much of these anti Nigeria rubbish are fakes rolled out from Ghana troll houses. Nigeria and Nigerians need to wake up.

leksite120:
I hate this SA people with passion.

See how quick they're to rejoice Nigerians downfall, that shows the level of their hatred and jealousy.


Abi if not, what else could it be.
And don't tell me it's because Nigerians commit crimes o. China, India also causes menaces everywhere but they're still respected and regarded. Are they not?

Thanks to our caring leaders that made us this way.
Imagine all these nonsense countries. If African countries doesn't respect us, is it Europe that will regard us?

Crap, Nigeria is a great Nation. Much of these anti Nigeria rubbish are fakes rolled out from Ghana troll houses. Nigeria and Nigerians need to wake up.

Why do those that claim they are Nigerian always comparing himself or herself disfavorably to everyone in the world? In addition, what good does this do for anyone? What good would it do the world if the wonderful, inventive, exciting, imaginative, exuberant, stylish Nigerian character were to die replaced by Zimbabwean, Ghanaian, Zambian, Rwandan, Togolese, and Cameroonian Character in Nigerians? Right now for instance I’m beginning to notice the Ghanaian horrible way of pronouncing things gradually creeping into the accent of Nigerian news presenters, replacing our wonderful uniquely Nigerian pronunciations that the world seem to love. These things are heartbreaking and I so wish Nigerians would hold on to what they have instead of always trying to adopt the often inferior ways of others.

Zimbabweans are Zimbabwean and should remain boring Zimbabwean, leave Nigerians to be Nigerians. If Nigerian ways die, Africa will never add something different to the world.

IkwerrePikin:
Ghana what you’re doing to your fellow African-Nigerian brothers is really unfair!

Tomorrow is pregnant oh!

Nigeria will be great!!!

Much of Nigeria’s shambolic Africa relations approach is informed by this “All Africans are our brothers” sentiment inculcated in majority of Nigeria’s generations since just after independence. As it turns out much of this sentiment is not even reciprocated by much of Africa, not one iota. I’ve read too many nationals of African nations insulting Nigerians, even gloating at Bokoharam slaughtering Nigerian women and children. Imagine! My parents whose heads were filled with this Pan-Africanism in turn filled my head with this nonsense too. I blame them also for much of my wasted time preaching, wishing and involving myself in fights that I had no businesses getting involved in just because I witnessed some African individual from one of these nations, that it turns out hated my guts because I was Nigerian, being attacked by none blacks. I may even have a criminal record, having ended up at police station ones for fighting for some Ghanaians against some racist whites. When Nigerians start giving African brotherhood only lip service, as the rest does, Nigeria, I’m sure will go a long way into growing into a better nation for Nigerians. I am convinced that much of Nigeria leaders’ lacklustre performance in power-outside of corruption and such- is to do with them existing in a vagueish bubble of ‘All-Africa’ considerations. This heady delusion has a saprophytic affect on them - like wallowing in smoky Moroccan joint house – that makes concentrating selfishly on Nigeria’s interest unnecessary if not too much effort. If Buhari stopped thinking of Niger and Chad and concentrated on Nigeria, for instance, I am sure something would have been done to seal the borders more effectively in order to protect Nigerians from bandits, terrorists, gun runners, jihadists and opportunists all of them supposed African brothers hell bent on killing you. Many of them were probably even motivated to join the ranks of these miscellaneous miscreants because of hating you as Nigerians. Therefore strike this,[s] " Ghana what you’re doing to your fellow African-Nigerian brothers is really unfair!"[/s] They are not your Brothers, Nigerians are your Brothers. They are looking After their interests.

Lol, and when I say Africans from elsewhere seem afflicted by disjointed sense of reality, some probably think I am exaggerating. Nearly all of the African nations that come on niareland regularly to boats of their very limited standards of development rely on international aid, which is different to receiving international aid.

Besides this topic, I can see why those that view Nigeria as too dominant in the West Africa sub-region - and have been trying a long time to discourage investment in Nigeria by spreading false as well as negative news about Nigeria internationally and trying to make Nigerians feel despondent- would be even more active now. If you look online YouTube, at developments in Nigeria and the fast pace of urban regeneration, it becomes clear, very quickly, to any with an iota of foresight, that Nigeria is one formidable country and the next exciting place in the world to expect massive developments. Even me that am always positive about Nigeria never quite believed those talk of Nigeria as an upcoming global power to watch or more accurately the next Tiger; now, however I am a believer. Exciting developments are happening. My advice to any of you reading this, if you’re not already investing, please go out and invest in land in Nigeria. Invest in Nigerian shares and stocks, buy property in Nigeria before it is too late and prices leap beyond your financial means.

Forget Buhari , forget politics, forget all that Nationalistic ego stuff, go do some investing for yourself and family interest. Go invest in real-estate properties - land and Houses before it is too late!

In this era of supposed Nigeria’s diminution in Africa and Ghana’s rise, one wonders how, for instance, a foreign company planning to set up in Ghana would proceed if assured the Nigeria government would sanction or heavily levy their produce?

When deported by Ghana to Nigeria, Nigeria should place them in detention centre, to weed out the fake Nigerians among them. Also, accept no one without Nigeria identity papers whatever those may be. No point being especially angry, which I guess many Nigerian are since Nigerians believe in one Africa crap. People are deported from one country to another all the time, all over the world. When Nigerians adopt my position of looking at Africa as a continent with many independent and exciting nation instead of looking at Africa as full of your brothers and sisters, Nigerians will no longer fill hurt but will be filled with hope for making Nigeria great and seein Nigeria as the place where your real brothers and sisters live. Promote only Nigeria and put Nigeria first. See Ghana as just another country, like Pakistan, Bhutan etc... eh, no offence to Pakistan or Bhutan
