You mean they know it by nepotism and favoritism.

They keep employing themselves even if they dont know the job...majority of Indians you see in tech in America isnt because they know but because of nepotism.

Indeed. They 're not in any of these positions by merit over nepotism and politics.

In this regard, African Americans should be ashamed that they're not using thire influence to place Nigerian doctors ahead of Indian doctors in the line of those applying to enter America. Instead, they're sulking at the little praise afforded Nigerians as though it is an affront on them rather than a benefit to them. They fail in seeing the larger picture.That crab mentality!



If Africa Americans don't want to use thire position in the system to favour Nigerians over Indians just as Whites and Indians use thire position to prioritise Indians, then they should not interfere if Nigerian Americans in the system attempt to favour Nigerians. Don't help the system label Nigerians as corrupt, criminals or some other characterisation if they try to work the system just as other races do and get away with doing

saysoo:
Nigerian medical Doctors are syringe and drugs. Indian Doctors are scientist and Inventors.

Crap. They are not. The West generally overlook misdeeds by Indians and then help to creat a positive but false world view of Indians in the bid to counter China and the Chinese. Some misdeeds by Indians is forgery and misleading. For example, an Indian who works as a a self appointed herbalist in India might apply to UK as a Doctor. Since the UK don't scrutinize them as much as they would a Nigerian, they slip through the system and become GP in London.

Understand that Whites never forget and always consider thire own however obscure.

Look at the Text below, as a person of African decent; mull over history in relation to Europe, now think of the future as an unbroken story.


Text:

Indo-European refers to a major language family that includes a wide range of languages spoken across Europe, Asia, and parts of the Indian subcontinent. It is one of the world's largest language families and encompasses languages like English, Spanish, Hindi, Russian, and many others. The term "Indo-European" signifies the linguistic and historical connection between these languages, suggesting that they share a common ancestral language from which they evolved over millennia. This language family has played a significant role in shaping the cultures and societies of the regions where its languages are spoken.

What are you talking about?

Do you know that In 1947 when they Got independence from Britain they were smart and intelligent enough to immediately split their country? While naija 6 years after independence fought a very bitter civil war to which the nationals are still suffering the repercussions till this very and they have still not learnt their lessons.

Now see the conscious and diligent persistent investment they have been making in STEM In recent years is paying off. Watch the 2009 Indian movie "3 idiots". U will appreciate what I am talking about.

China came to exploit, now India gradually

When will naija be powerful enough to begin to start exploiting others.

Working WITH China implies Partnership and implicit in this is resolving issues of exploitation and finding common mutually beneficial grounds of cooperation.

The trap or and continued exploitation and dependency that the Indo-European axis is preparing for the black/African future will most satisfactorily be checked by Nigeria if Nigeria y worked with the Chinese.

America is only in the last 2 decades learning from the Brits. The Indians on Niaraland know what i mean, Nigerians and blacks are ignorant of it.

Nigeria doctors are better than India doctors . Nigerians are ignorant of the Racist politics of the Model Minority/. Africa Americans suffer the same crabs in a barrel mentality that afflict Africa but not Nigerians.

Above is the short synopsis of a reality that i well understand but of which Nigerians are currently ignorant.

Wow the out pouring of love is overwhelming. Just take a look at how everyone is united, because it's not politics. Nigerian politicians are the worse. Una divide and conquer no go work one day

The crux of the matter right there in bold. But nothing will stop Nigeria if the youths turn thire backs on this poison. But just sit back for a second and consider how decrepit and wretched of soul these people must be. In an age on the verge of something truly epochal due to other races pioneering in quantum computing, biotech, AI, space travel, Saudi Arabia's line city, nanotech, superconductors and so on, all our "leaders" can come up with is online groups dedicated to spreading ethnic hatred. This is our invention, our contribution to humanity.

Throwback:
Am I the only one who has wondered why all the fuss about the death of someone whose family did not make any allegation against anyone, and who proceeded to bury him the very next day when he is not a Muslim?

Did any one rule his death as suspicious before all the hullabaloo began?

Did the family not bury their dead themselves or it was the imaginary killers or facilitators of his death that also buried him in the full view of the public and his family?

I have read multiple news about the death from day 1, and besides the allegations made about being threatened in the past by some record label and their thugs, no one has made any useful contribution about how he actually died, or that his family who decided to bury him immediately have accused anyone of killing the dead musician.

This is one absurd matter that shows that a lot of people jump on the bandwagon of anything in Nigeria. Even the most obscure personality would become a superstar once the death can be made into sensational news.

Many people are truly jobless and the government need to act fast to prevent professional mourning from becoming a career for the idle.

In this very emotional country, logic is a very rare commodity to come by.

Nigeria is a nation of storytellers, specifically Tall Tales seasoned with drama and magical realism. This, plus the advent of internet which, among other benefits, is the perfect platform for news, was always going to be a recipe for excess - to put it mildly. It's for this reason that the well-meaning, level headed Nigerians in positions of authority need to continually influence the masses never to accept anything on face value but on reasonably irrefutable evidence.

Asylum in Ghana.
He is suffering from madness.
Nobody is after him. Except his ghost.

Lol, imagine. Asylum in Ghana?? The ridiculousness of the whole thing is ridiculous. Well, at least the guy is more aware of the world than the average Nigerian. He knows that the West is well informed on Nigeria and not going to grant him Asylum informed by his delusions. He knows Ghana is the only places he could go that would indulge his publicity seeking ass so long as it concerns Nigeria and affords that nation the opportunity to play to the world gallery.

Just seen a YouTube vid on Mohbad wich leads me to wonder if Mohbad was under anesthetic and somehow mistaken for dead due to a series of events, and taken from hospital prematurely due to the series of events at the hospital. If such a thing occured and if Mohbad actually died later,and elsewhere ( not hospital) maybe in that car, at home or wherever he was taken, what could autopsy determine ?

Just determining from the video I've just seen and having not followed the Mohbad affair, could ignorance be the true cause of Mohbad's death?

I mean if Mohbad was really just under anesthetic and his associates thought he was dead then in panic and drama rushed him from hospital....

A supposed witnesses voice in the video, narrated that the nurses rushed him out of hospital - presumably Mohbad was on a gurney. Could it be that Mohbad's friends were dragging him out while the nurses were trying to drag him back into the hospital but to the witness, not comprehending what was going on , it seemed to him that nurses and Mohbad's friends or associate were horridly rushing him out of hospital ?

I was informed by someone close, who was present on one such occasion, that Obasanjo, during keynote speeches to Nigeria youths helping out in various Africa nations, used to encourage Nigerian youths to leave Nigeria and not return. This shocked and annoyed me. I had no reason to disbelieve the individual that told me this and he had no reason to lie.

Anyway, looking back, i see now that the old man Obasanjo was wise and not the traitor i took him for due to my youth and the youths associated naivities. Obasanjo understood that Nigeria would be a better place and less burdened when certain types of Nigeria youths leave Nigeria, especially never to return.

If you really know why you Japa from this shit hole, then you won't even miss a thing.

Individuals like you japparing is mutually beneficial - in short, good for you and good for Nigeria. Would benefit Nigerians and Nigeria even more if you had the good grace not to chook your mouth in affairs of Nigeria once you're gone. If you could burn your passport and deny ever being a Nigerian, avoid Nigeria social media space etc.

If you're unable to do such a thing, harbouring such hatred, then you're effectively parasitic in nature.

WhisperedNoise:
Everybody knows this. Many states in Nigeria have natural resources but government entities collude with illegal miners and they get their share of the profit. Why is Tinubu acting like he discovered the theory of relativity?

He doesn't need to go abroad to amend this. It's not rocket science. Find everybody involved: fire who is meant to be fired, jail who is meant to be jailed. Bring a heavy hand against corruption and watch it die a natural and fast death.

BUT can Tinubu wage an aggressive war against corruption? Sadly, no, because baba himself has stains and a shady past.

All these talking won't solve anything. Nigeria needs a man who DOES more than he talks. Talk is cheap.

It is absolute evil that most states are plundered by miners and government officials and yet these same states are languishing in poverty and pity.

Could be difficult to act when or if Central Authority is hostage to deviants beguiling the people with tribe and religion. The very Nigeria masses being impoverished by the syphoning away of thire national wealth are the very Nigeria masses supporting the local thieves, disguised as local champions, that are responsible in partnership with the foreign powers.

....Simone of Denmark is fighting for us by killing the Nigeria soldiers and police. Musa of the North is fighting for us Northerners by ensuring the military cannot stop the gold miners - after all are the Southerners not threatening us with withdrawing the benefits of oil?

Don't you just love how in the top picture, nations depicted as ECOWAS Alliance in blue, is missing Ghana?

Those people are one slippery customer. Ghanaians are prominent in media houses in the UK....

Ukraine special services 'likely responsible' for drone strikes on Wagner-backed militia group in Sudan currently waging civil war, official claims


Ukrainian special forces may have been responsible for attacks on a Wagner-backed militia in Sudan, a Ukrainian military official has revealed.

Speaking to CNN, the anonymous source said a string of drone attacks against the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) earlier this month were carried out by a 'non-Sudanese' military, claiming 'Ukrainian special services were likely responsible'.

The attacks began on September 8, two days after Wagner Group sent gun-laden trucks to an RSF garrison in al-Zurug, southwest Sudan. The RSF has been embroiled in a power struggle with Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) since April 15, 2023.

At least six strikes targeted trucks on Shambat Bridge and another eight hit vehicles, buildings and personnel near RSF positions in Omdurman and Ombada. Analysis of drone footage by CNN revealed Ukrainian text seen on the drone controller.

Whistleblowers in Chad told CNN that the Wagner convoy moved through Chad, where Wagner Group does not currently have an established presence, potentially signalling an expansion of Russia and Wagner's influence on the continent.

Ukrainian operations in Africa would also mark a significant development in the ongoing conflict in eastern Europe.


Some critics have been skeptical of the claims made by the Ukrainian source.

A Sudanese military official told CNN they were not aware of Ukrainian operations in Sudan.
Wagner Group has maintained a presence in Sudan since 2017, and has arms spread out across the continent.

In April, founder Yevgeny Prigozhin claimed 'not a single Wagner PMC [private military company] fighter has been present in Sudan' for over two years.

But evidence has mounted of Wagner arming the RSF with missiles to fuel its war against the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF).

Footage from July 2022 also appeared to show mercenaries training Sudanese forces in parachute-landing exercises.

The Global Initiative Against Transnational Organized Crime [GI-TOC] assessed in April that Wagner sought both influence and material gain in Sudan.

'The main objective of the Russians in Sudan is not to protect the Khartoum political power, but essentially to benefit immensely from the country's mineral resources.'

Russia has likewise agreed trade deals in the past to mine gold in Sudan.

At least 5,000 people have been killed and over 12,000 wounded in the ongoing war in Sudan, according to Volker Perthes, the U.N. envoy in the country, who announced his resignation last week.

The actual casualty toll, he said, is likely much higher.

More than 2.5 million people have fled their homes, including over 1 million who crossed into Sudan's neighboring countries, according to the U.N.'s migration agency.

More than 1,200 children under the age of five have also died as a result of the conflict, which has raged for the last five months with few ceasefires.

The U.N.'s refugee agency warned on Tuesday that a deadly combination of measles and malnutrition were taking their toll on Sudan's civilian population.

The UNHCR said the deaths, between May 15 and September 14, were documented by its teams in the While Nile province, where thousands of Sudanese have sheltered as fighting has raged for six months between rival generals, in the capital of Khartoum and elsewhere.

'Dozens of children are dying every day - a result of this devastating conflict and a lack of global attention,' said the U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees, Filippo Grandi.

Sudan has been governed by a council of generals led by current de facto president Abdel Fattah al-Burhan since a military junta tasked with transitioning the country to democracy was overthrown in a 2021 military coup.

al-Burhan's deputy, Mohamed Hamdan Dagalo, better known as Hemeti, is commander of the 100,000-strong RSF.

Tensions have since grown as the SAF and RSF have competed for legitimacy amid wider discussions about the future of the country.

In December 2022, civilian groups that had been sidelined by the 2021 coup signed an initial deal with the military to start a new two-year political transition and appoint a new civilian government.

On 5 April 2023, the final signing for the deal was delayed a second time, amid disputes over whether the army would be placed under civilian oversight in a new administration, and how the RSF would be integrated into the armed forces.

Civilian groups also seek justice for alleged war crimes by the military and its allies.

In this volatile environment, the relationship between Burhan and Hemeti became strained, leading ultimately to conflict as RSF personnel were tactically redeployed into roles around Sudan.

Both sides initially accused each other of starting the conflict, and have been loathe to negotiate. Both have called for the other side to surrender.

The region remains geopolitically important and western allies fear the possible establishment of a Russian base on the east coast on the Red Sea, to which some military leaders have been receptive.

Sudan has been trapped in conflict on-and-off since declaring independence in 1955, recognised on 1 January 1956.

They're already fighting for seats....

Nigerians my people

Isn't that like contracting the mafia to provide security for the national treasury ?

If we're now interested in monitoring borders primarily to check terrorists in all thire manifestations, why not contract Taliban instead of Turkey, Taliban would be cheaper.

Greed & Corruption, shorthand for when inept foreign companies partnering Nigerians to deliver services to Nigerians cheat Nigerians knowing they can get away because Nigerian partners would be blamed for corruption. The Nigeria partners are unable to defend themselves because of Nigeria's reputation for corruption and because their ignorance of the market and incompetence was what made them sign contract with the inept foreign firms in the first place (sold on precepts of cost effectiveness ) instead of the ideal ones.


This types of issues may be what David Nweze Umahi is discovering in relation to the road work contacts and atrocious historic road deliveries .

I'm sure if the Twin Towers and many sky scrapers around the world had areas around them like Nigeria commercial places do but instead had mote-like lakes, some people that leap from widows during infernos would survive.

You gotta give miracle a chance, concrete will not

We need to evolve beyond "the West is Best and must be copied in all things" mindset. I'm sure we can find ways of ecstatically improving on what we have arrived at now in our cities due to the impositions of our realities.

If we do then our cities will have thire own characters different from the boring sameness of all modern cities around the world currently.

To you Bangladesh na developed country. What is the use of a poor man meeting another poor man? Is it to trade poverty stories. What can Nigeria learn or gain from Bangladesh

I don't know ooooooooOOOOOO!!! Might as well have gone to Bukina Faso and save money.

I think Nigeria is possibly the only country in the world that has never initiated attacks on foreigners except in self defense and in a retaliatory capacity as in the Ghana case, which was why I mentioned "initiated".
