Troll House having a field day demonising Nigeria under guise of Igbo and Yoruba battling each other with negetive press news.... |
Curious345:Indeed. In Achebe's words, 'as thives have learned to call themselves freedom fighters so the people have learned to open doors for them and cheer as they carry away properties for use for the great fight'. Or is it: As the people have come to celebrate anarchy against the state, so criminals have learned that they are no different from freedom fighters..... |
Asour:Labeling Nigerians as Criminals is more useful to the relevant powers than prosecuting criminals of Nigeria heritage. This is because there aren't many Nigerians in criminal activities to prosecute in the first place as is publicised. |
Shikena:Which 200 countries? There are no countries in the world , except in Africa, where Nigerians are not regarded highly. Stop contributing to false narratives and believing in them. And in the case of Africa, coonish Ghana and defensive South Africa are responsible for the other Wannabees! And all suffering from Crab mentality. |
Shikena:Bros India-defender, India is over a Billion people, how many Africans in India? How many Nigerians among the Africans.What sort of clouding could a drop of Nigerians contribute to an Indian ocean of filth? |
TheChameleon:Sharrap!! they, Nigerians, commited no crime in India. There's nothing in India to steal. India is a shit hole country, the poorest people on earth -forget all that crap about Nigerians replacing India as the poorest. This counterproductive labeling was created by the misguided politics of Opposite Politics contemporarily practiced in Nigeria. Nigerians associated with India's drug problems are victims. They are individuals used as mules and Runners by the elite class in India that want to remove themselves from scandal associated with being caught or fingered by suspicions and gossip. This last - the Scandal industry - is very important to grasp if Nigerians want to understand Indians and India. Related to this is what I have termed Bucketism. I derived this from the British sitcom, Keeping Up Appearances. Indians and the Nation India suffers greatly from Bucketism. The pretence of sophistication and air of being among the elites. This is why the British are able to control and use them as buffers against black people. They are a weak minded people contend to eat scraps thrown down to them from the white table so long as they are told that they are more valued than the blacks that sleep outside in the yard! The expelling of Africans from India almost certainly has more to do with simmering resentment from the shame they felt at being expelled from Uganda. The deporting of Nigerians or the picking on Nigerians that are the biggest economy in Africa and the most famous Africa nation, certainly the people that would attract most world attention from Africa , is likely what India would do in the form of payback and redressing her shame of that period of explosion of Indians from Uganda . |
SpaceX Starlink Internet service will soon be available across the West African country of Nigeria, according to Nigeria’s Minister of Communications and Digital Economy Isa Ali Pantami. SpaceX already delivered some Starlink user terminals to the country to commence services. “As part of the partnership, SpaceX is to provide broadband access across the whole of Nigeria, enabling nationwide access to broadband connectivity way ahead of the December 2025 schedule, as outlined in our national broadband plan,” said Pantami. “With this collaboration with SpaceX’s Starlink, Nigeria is set to be the first African country to introduce the service.” Nigeria’s goals was to cover 90% of the country’s population with reliable internet access by 2025, the goal is now attainable because the Starlink satellite network is easy to set up and capable of beaming high-speed internet to rural and remote communities. SpaceX’s official Starlink Coverage Map says the service is ‘coming soon’ to Nigeria, users must input their address on the website to find out if its already available in their specific area. and technical writer who lives in Nigeria, shared on Twitter [@Gbahdeyboh] that he had the opportunity to test the Starlink network this week. He is one of the first-ever Starlink users in the continent. “Just got a chance to test my SpaceX Starlink out. I haven't tested extensively (I intend to do so this weekend) but I'm pretty impressed so far,” he said on January 3rd. “Got about 20Mbps [Megabits per second] on the initial test and it went up to about 240Mbps afterwards. The latency is pretty decent as well,” he shared. “I'm testing from Abeokuta, Ogun State where I've struggled greatly with sub par Internet. Even hubs here don't have the internet bit figured out yet, so it's really a big deal to me that I'm able to get above 200Mbps,” said Bello. “I get this speed despite not putting the dish in a very elevated space and having over 30% obstruction which my Starlink considers really bad. Wondering if it'll get any better if placed on the roof.” He also shared a photo of the Starlink antenna and a screenshot of the internet speed test, shown below. https://www.tesmanian.com/blogs/tesmanian-blog/starlink-nigeria-1 |
IkeIgboNile:So you're implying Nigeria is worst than Kenya in this regard even though no celebrity gays or transgender have been killed by Nigerians. The other day, Ghanians robbed some celebrity of his mobile phone (reality) but somehow the shame was not Ghana's but Nigeria's because, supposedly, if it was Nigeria (imaginery)100 celebrities would have had thire phones stolen. You all should continue living in the denial of Nigeria's superiority over the rest of Africa. |
Can't believe I read all comments on a Niaraland thread - about the negetive going-ons of a foreign Nation - without coming across the comment of some dingbat saying Nigeria is worst. Hallelujah! |
Lanre4uonly:Seems as if the inability to complete this road is attaining the mythological heights of the India v Nigeria football match. |
I'll never understand why Nigerians seem to believe that there are extraordinary occurrences that are unique to Nigeria. ![]() Abroad, security officers patrol in all hospital precisely because Doctors, Nurses and hospital staff are always in danger of being attacked by patients, patients relatives and members of the general public. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=euYjpxAjeSM |
The thing I love about Jamaicans is that Nigerians used to be like them, brave courageous and with a sense of right and wrong. This Jamaican guy would equally smash airports in Nigeria, UK, South Africa, India or wherever out of the same outrage he felt in Mexico. He wouldn't only show power in Africa like too many black people these days that are essentially fat cowards. Unlike Nigerians nowadays he didn't put up with rubbish from the Mexican officials only to go on social media to insult his own country, claiming that if his country was good, the Mexicans wouldn't transgress on his rights as he saw it. Acts like his strikes a more powerful blow for actual black emancipation than a hundred crappy Pan Africa rubbish discussions and forums. |
jedaii:Man na barbecue grill ![]() |
Goodmarlian:Not unique to Nigeria, which is why in the West lottery winners have the option of anonymity. In the West, if you're publicly wealthy, you'll be inundated for help and money not only by the type of suspects you identified but also by a myriad of charities. |
Whenever some African is labelled Nigerian and is said to be arrested or charged in India for one issue or another I automatically sympathize with the individual because they are innocent. I would fearlessly stake my life that the individual is innocent and that the only crime they committed is the rhetorical one of going to India of all places. If you're Nigerian, please don't let yourself down by going to India. Stop being stupid and naïve. As an aside, it is a futile endeavour trying to portray Nigerians as criminals using the well worn racist trope of blacks as criminals and layabouts. The world recognises Nigerians as the most hard working educated people you would find anywhere in the world. I hope leaders in Nigeria recognise the nature and purpose of India and Indians in relation to their tactics when it comes to Nigerians, black people and Africans. We are not cursed to exist on earth without a racial plan of our own! |

FelaSkye:Never Japa unless you're a slum dweller living in a zinc house and sharing muddy roads with pigs and mongrel dogs. If waterlogged paths outside your front door is not your version of riverside property, invest your money in Nigeria on yourself. Otherwise, travel. Don't think in terms of Jappa, Travel. Exploring the world is your birthright as a human. If you're able, convert your millions and travel, as much as you can afford, to different nations abroad then return to Nigeria if possible. Memories, experiences and wisdom you will gain will be its own reward. |
BigBashiru:Disorganisation, not laziness, is why something's largely don't function as well as you would like in Nigeria. I say, "somethings" don't work and not as you say, "nothing works". Obviously internet works or you and thousands of others wouldn't be posting online without end. Or could it be that the thousands that post stuff about Nigeria don't even live in Nigeria and so may not be reliable witnesses but individuals with agendas against the country? If nothing works, I wonder also why and how diaspora Nigerians manage to figure highly on any list of the world's top ten remittance nations to Nigeria. Thousands if not millions of Nigerians abroad send money to Nigeria and it reaches the intended recipients. How do individuals fly in and out of Nigeria? How does Nigeria trade with the world? Who trains the doctors, nurses and teachers being poached by Nations in the West? Systems for sending money to the states of the federation functions. Shipping process function. Some factories functioned well enough but not as competitively as possible against Chinese competition. Millions own bank accounts in Nigeria. How do people make mobile phone calls? Millions of Nigerians live in houses, who builds those houses? Where is the cement manufactured, how and who controls and manages the system that result in the construction industry that seem to erect thousands of estates overnight all over Nigeria ? Don't Nigerians own televisions and radios? Who runs the broadcasting stations, who makes the programs? Where do people buy the TV and radios? Where does Nigeria news papers come from, who runs the printing press? Where do Nigerians get the products sold in the vast markets? How are these products imported? Who and how does the entire chain work? |
Bahamas95:Maybe not you but I understand USA. I have a large extended family in Nigeria, and apart from during the civil war (historic), none have died at the hands of anyone. But my cousin died less than a week of landing in America. Shot in the middle of the head for knocking on the wrong door. |
BigBashiru:Not Nigerians... |
Bahamas95:You make Nigeria seem like USA. |
Actually, and sadly, attacks on firefighters is a worldwide phenomenon. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9hCsdN7uZtU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bL4FKoYmj3Y |
BigBashiru:If Nigerians are lazy then the rest of Africa and blacks in the rest of the world are comatose. |
shortgun:I don't know if he blames Northern Leaders for Bokoharam, but Northern Leaders are always being blamed and insulted on Niaraland if we're honest. From the president Buharai to the short guy in Sokoto or is it Kaduna, from Zulum to Bello. They're continually vilified. |
gypsey:Look at this: 28-year-old Bryan Christopher Kohberger in Albrightsville, Pennsylvania murdered four college students in Idaho. Bryan Kohberger, is a graduate student at Washington State University, located less than 10 miles away from the University of Idaho. https://abcnews.go.com/US/idaho-murders-police-hold-news-conference-friday-afternoon/story?id=95976902 |
It’s well known that all humans alive today can be traced back to a common ancestor but a study may have found where that ancestor originates. Researchers at the University of Oxford’s Big Data Institute mapped the entirety of genetic relationships among humans to create the largest human family tree ever. “Essentially, we are reconstructing the genomes of our ancestors and using them to form a vast network of relationships,” Lead author Dr Anthony Wilder Wohns said. “We can then estimate when and where these ancestors lived.” Where they lived? Sudan, Africa.Dr Wohns told Reuters, "The very earliest ancestors we identify trace back in time to a geographic location that is in modern Sudan. “These ancestors lived up to and over 1 million years ago—which is much older than current estimates for the age of Homo sapiens—250,000 to 300,000 years ago. So bits of our genome have been inherited from individuals who we wouldn’t recognize as modern humans," Dr Wohns said. By combining modern and ancient human genomes data from eight different databases, the researchers were able to create a massive family tree.This allowed them to see how a person’s genetic sequence relates to another using the points of the genome.

Researchers used 3,609 individual genome sequences from 215 populations and samples that ranged from 1,000s to over 100,000 years. By using a new method to compile the data, algorithms were able to predict where common ancestors were in evolutionary trees to explain some patterns of genetic variation. The results were a network of almost 27 million ancestors. “The power of our approach is that it makes very few assumptions about the underlying data and can also include both modern and ancient DNA samples,” Dr Wohns says. Not only does the data help us understand human geology better but the new method could help in other research, like medicine. “The underlying method could have widespread applications in medical research, for instance identifying genetic predictors of disease risk," Dr Wohns added. https://www.indy100.com/science-tech/origin-humanity-ancestors-sudan-study-2659046100?utm_source=newsshowcase&utm_medium=discover&utm_campaign=CCwqGQgwKhAIACoHCAow0975CjDO0eYCMLnOjgEw-tifAQ&utm_content=bullets |
