If he was a decrepit 110 year old white dude, her current critics would be her advocates. |
Party Politics - not personal experience - is largely responsible for the hatred some Nigerians hold for Nigeria. Party Politics brainwashes many Nigerians to view things negatively in order to facilitate their desire to rule Nigeria on the promise they will fix those things they brainwashed the electorate into seeing in an extraordinarily negative manner. The sowing of tribal hatred is part of the strategy. Political parties and figures sponsor article writers, blogers, vloggers and groups that target social media platforms etc. |
Dictionary definition of Party Politics noun politics that relate to political parties rather than to the good of the general public. |
Johnrake69:You're reacting to the degrading and corrupting of party politics in Nigeria not tribalism. Nigerians do not largely regard themselves along tribal lines, Nigeria's corrupted party politics, in addition to external foreign interests, is in the process of creating this in Nigeria. It is an indictment on the nature of black people that while other races engage in scientific long term goals, black people's long term plans is how to sow the seeds of long term failure in any black nation that has the possibility of being great. |
internationalman:Bokoharam suicide bombers aint Nigerians then... |
Some Nigerians have entirely brainwashed themselves with thire own propaganda that began as party political criticisms. Unfortunately they brainwashed too many Nigerians along the way so that now too many Nigerians are entirely without sense of proportion. |
blaise26abj:How I wish I had the power to magic him to North Korea. Some that claim they are Nigerians are soooooooo annoying. I'm trying to avoid calling them extraordinarily stupid. That Nigeria, beautiful nation and people, what has caused this inability to look at things objectively and the measuring of wealth by standards dictated by Oyibo ? |
One thing more, you know when Jappanese wannabe say,"if Nigeria is so great why don't you return ?" Well, in addition to other excellent reasons relayed by those that advise Nigerians not to give up on good jobs or and buisneses in Nigeria just to travel abroad, there's this one: It is difficult to stay in a place, no matter how good, where everyone around you want to leave. This is a subtle and underrated reason some don't want to return. I write from experience. When I'm in Nigeria, excited in being back home and full of things I want to do, and projects I'd like to undertake, friends around you kill your spirit with talk of wanting to go abroad. They keep implying you're mad to return by questioning why you returned. You can't get anything off the ground since your mates don't have their heart in anything but abroad. Luckily for me my family members are happy in Nigeria and are not enthused about traveling abroad. Crude example: if you know of a banging club with excellent atmosphere, music, etc and you head there only to find that people are leaving the club for another club based on rumours and bandwagon effect, you too would want to follow everyone to the other club even if you know the other club to be rubbish. At first you may try to stop people from going to the other club, telling them you have been there and the club is not as good as this one, all things taken into consideration. The people leaving would be telling you, " abeg, leave my hand, Joh, if this club is so great why don't you stay and enjoy!" You might want to stay but if the atmosphere is dead because people are leaving or boring you with talk of leaving for the other one, you too are likely to abandon the better club. |
Again, due to Nigeria's low electricity coverage, Nigeria has very little light pollution resulting in spectacular night skies full of stars. Nigeria is fabulous. |
Herbephe1:Successful countries currently have polluted skies,which is probably why their clouds are different from Nigeria's. I've yet to see sky better than Nigeria's - especially dusks in Nigeria. Sunsets in Nigeria are spectacular. European, Asian and skies in the West generally are more polluted than Nigeria sky. Despite the generators, wood burning, gas flaring, and inefficient used vehicles that plough Nigeria roads, Nigeria is less polluted than Canada (Car use per capita in Nigeria is virtually negligible. ). This is because industry in Nigeria is megre in comparison to majority of Asian, South American, European and North American nations. Nigeria's carbon footprint is comparatively microscopic. |
No lessons gained from historic events in the region it would seem otherwise the worst outcome would be that although security lost two men the assaulting gunmen would not have escaped. |
Nigeria don't need the people looking and acting lowbrow forever. Monumentalise architecture also serves a purpose too you know. Environment can uplift a people's appearance physically by affecting their psychology. Nigeria needs aesthetic utilitarian constructions not just utilitarian ones. There are reasons and repercussions why somethings are expensive others cheap. |
Yet another Utilitarian bridge same as Second Niger bridge that smacks of those patronising advice from the West that label any involved designs as impractical for the urgent purposes of the natives who simply required their basic needs met. In actuality however they don't want your country to own architecture more monumental than theirs, you people are upstarts otherwise. |
bonnyhope:Because the reward for disregarding it is short term and personally higher than obeying the law or being cought breaking the law . When the penalty is highly prohibitive and being caught and prosecuted more certain, people will obey the appropriate laws. |
Women are the only ones capable of revolutionizing Islam and dragging it kicking and screaming into the 21st century so that it is fit for the world. |
Islam, women's greatest battle. |
BeanmanX:The capable ones stay in Nigeria. If capable Nigerians are the majority leaving Nigeria, I suspect Abroad would welcome Nigerians with open arms the way UK and many Western nations welcome Nigeria nurses and doctors. Similarly UK welcomed thousands of useful folks from Hong Kong and Singapore. Nigeria has no use for useless people and neither dose Abroad, which is why visa problems exist. However this may change as many Western nations populations age and they need lowbrow individuals from the third world to come sweep streets, clean thire ageing people's yasshes and be taxed out of the majority of thire low wages so that Western nations can maintain services for the selfsame ageing majority. Ps Although Elon musk is working on Labour Robots that may in future fulfill the lowbrow positions in Western nations. If this happens then Western nations won't be needing lowbrow third world people in future in which case visas and all the relevant immigration rules devised to keep Deplorables firmly in thire countries will remain. |
Oxygn:These will end when we learn or bother to improve informed by our failure points. That is, specifically act for Nigeria's sake. What measures have police implemented throughout Nigeria in response to historic Militant Deviants' attacks on their positions? In the wake of numerous prison breaks and attacks, what measures have prison services taken to replace inadequate prisons or and reinforce systems, implement surveillances and so on to militate against future attacks everywhere or (at a penny-pinch) specific restive areas? |
Western style development isn't sentimental, with their strict laws, criminalised or formalised "undesirables" (e.g the homeless, unemployed, the old, the infirm, learning disability etc) hidden from society. Nigeria need to begin separating neighbourhoods. If shantytowns must be tolerated, let these establish far from moderate to better urban settlements. These separations enable authorities to monitor and study groups and social dynamics. |
