Akwa ibom is fine but why are akwa ibom people littered all over the ghetto of Lagos.
Their government should concentrate on human empowerment rather than all this unnecessary amenities that is not reflecting on their citizens life

Did the humans Nigeria invested in not Japa to Europe to work as doctors and nurses? Supported by the very Nigerians that need them most, all shouting in text, Japa, Japa, Japa! What returns is Nigeria getting from those investment in medical and nursing institutions ?

Bet you even some of those boasting from Ukraine how Ukraine at war is better than Nigeria at peace, benefited from Nigeria in the form their formative years.

In recent times I couldn't help but think about how the artisan and Craftsmanship industry of Nigeria will be 10 years from now.

I remember back in the 80s and 90s, it is common and even a thing of pride whereby people sign up for apprenticeship for a couple of years to get the required skill in their field of interest.

I wonder if the shift in mindset of Nigerians, that I've noticed is related to this. The shift being that younger Nigerians, disappointingly, no longer view running a business as an ambition but rather as a necessity. Like the rest of Africa, younger Nigerians now want to be employees. Once , Nigerians would only trade the prospect of running a business for top carriers such as in medicine, law, engineering, accountancy, piloting and so on. Now people want to be employed rather than be creators of employment for others by running businesses. We are loosing our edge.

A girl child is not safe anywhere in Nigeria. You can't even go out without being scared for your life . Rapists, kidnappers and ritualists on the prowl. Violent crimes against girls and women is being reported everyday. I have to start learning self defense, I can't take any chances. Maybe I should start moving around with a dagger too.

Girls and young people are very safe in Nigeria, safer than in other Nations in Africa

....
the only time the whole world will know peace is when every country(practically impossible for now) has its own nuclear power heads.

Peace is doubtful since war is ultimately the expression of destruction intrinsic in Atrophy a cornerstone of existence itself.
However, while peace is impossible men could be liberated from the trauma associated with anarchy regardless of subjectivity. This is by transcending all humanly prejudices.

He is not unfortunate. He died for something he believe in. He made his own Sacrifice to defend his countries independence.

"Sacrifice" is a strange word to Africans. They need Awoof but will never pay a little price for it. They rather Accept anything life throws at them and tag is "Will of God" without standing up to Challenges.

They will pray from now till 30 days for God to change their leaders heart but will never step out and boldly help God answer that prayer point.

Africans are foolish, if you don't know yet or see it yet, ask your neighbor because your foolishness maybe clouding your proper reasoning

You've not considered history before drawing your conclusion; a conclusion, which seem to me informed by the false notion that Africans are placid people that don't fight wars - especially of the relevant emancipation. For this reason, I've taken the liberty of declaring here a list (not exhaustive list) on relatively modern Africa armed struggles.

They have electricity.

The ones that go over there and say stuff like, 'I'm Nigerian, I love my country Nigeria (even if they don't) I've come to fight for freedom ( even if they have not but are over there with the intention of acquiring citizenship in the long run)
This type of person has hope.

Those that travel and start insulting thire homeland is at best selfish for he worsens not improves the life chances of Nigerians in Nigeria. Anyone tells you cussing and insulting your country of birth will pressure government into improving things is lying to you. Insult the Government ,its policies and achievements,not the country. Politicians and political parties that encourage people to insult the country are wicked people that don't mean well for the country and consequently you! if this is your personal beliefs and what you do of your own violation, you're wrong, change it. The political individual that does this is all but shouting at you, "I am a thief interested only in me and my family. I will embezzle, take kickbacks, I don't care about you or your country!"

We Will Not Tolerate Recruitment Of Nigerians As Mercenaries In Ukraine – FG by

Gov't should've kept mute on the matter. Let those that want to leave Nigeria in this way, LEAVE! Emphasis should then have been on collecting data on these people for the purposes of revoking their citizenship and adding this information to the long overdue national database on everything necessary for national security ( We need data on citizens of Nigeria). So if they return to Nigeria they do so as citizens of Place Elsewhere and require visas.

Not only should govt let them go they should secretly encourage it. Nigeria needs to be rid of certain types of citizens. It may be good for them but certainly good for Nigeria. It would be victory all round.

he said, "What am I coming back to Nigeria to do? Has anything changed in our country?"

Na Change him dey look, no wonder 'im won remain for Ukraine where massive change is taking place.

How is Ukraine saved by a nuclear war that wipes out the world .?

For anyone that imagines a survivable nuclear war, consider this: any nation that lunches a nuclear weapon will have to lunch every nuclear missile in its arsenal at once. Forget all those Hollywood precision bombing movies. There aint gonna be no economically taken out targets. This is since first strike nation can't afford to give the nation attacked the chance to retaliate. The number of nuclear weapons aimed at completely obliterating any one nation or block will devastate the entire world. It's not just radiation you need worry over, it's also the alignment of the Earth in its orbit around the sun.

UKRAINE at War is still better than Nigeria at Peace.

The Ministry of Solid Minerals Development on Monday confirmed the discovery of Nickel in parts of Kaduna State in North-West Nigeria.

Permanent Secretary, Mohammed Abbas, said the ministry had been following up on the report by its technical experts since the first discovery was made several months ago.

“The Ministry is aware of the occurrence of the mineral in parts of Kaduna State,” the statement said. “Since the first discovery many months ago, technical experts from the ministry have been following up on this development as provided by law.

The ministry urged Nigerians to allow government come up with detailed reports on the new find towards its development.

The statement confirmed a report by PREMIUM TIMES that a private mining syndicate had discovered nickel in Nigeria.

The private mining syndicate headed by Hugh Morgan, a mining industry veteran, described the discovery as unusual since it was found in small balls of about three millimeters in diameter and of a high purity in shallow soils, indicative of the existence of a larger hard-rock Nickel field in the area.

The discovery was said to be around Dangoma, a small farming town about 160 kilometres northeast of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Abuja. The community also borders Kaduna state to the west.

Nickel could potentially be a high foreign exchange earner for Nigeria, particularly at a time the country’s economy was facing the blight of declining global crude oil prices.

Nickel is sold primarily for first use as refined metal in manufacturing of many other alloys, while about 65 per cent of it is consumed in the West, used for the production of stainless steel products.

ⓘ

Nigeria could join some of the world’s largest producers of Nickel, which include Philippines, Indonesia, Russia, Canada, and Australia, according to the US Geological Survey.

NIRSAL AD

At the moment, Nigeria’s current output of Nickel is below 2.5 metric tons per annum, produced mainly from scrap irons.

The discovery of the mineral in large volume could see the country’s production capacity increased significantly, as government has already shown commitment to raise its capacity to meet the country’s annual steel demand of 6.8 metric tons, Mr. Fayemi told Bloomberg recently.

RIP pretty. Ur country failed u

So true, only in Nigeria are people shot dead. Nigerians should quickly Japa to Ukraine. Also, lots of light in Ukrainian skies.

RIP Lady.

If not outside Ukraine embassy,may he be found elsewhere, safe n sound.

In your narrow view it is about bridges, right?
Is that why Nigerians dey japa to Ukraine and other places where we are treated worse than dogs
Or it is for jobs that pay well compared with the total package of their politicians?
Can we ever be wise

Essentially, yes, it's about bridges. Going by what Nigerians seem to complain most about, the gov is doing the right thing. Nigerians complain more about electricity, roads, buildings, pavements than even about insecurity and jobs. They complain about corruption too because they believe it deprives them of living in a West like environment.

Even when Nigerians watch media on Eastern Europe where the people look wretched and live mostly on dry bread and water, have no jobs, are hounded by stray dogs and youths high on glue fumes, Nigerians still say they would rather live there than in Nigeria. The reason why is because those Eastern Europe places are cemented, roads paved, buildings even and ordered and many bridges surmounting rivers and canals.

Traveling abroad is your Human rights, subject to the relevant laws. You don't have to justify yourself. All nationals travel. It is enough to travel because you want to see the world, experience other cultures, study etc. You are not obligated to insult your country of birth.

They should all come back to Nigeria let's join hand and make her a better country...

Anyone that travels abroad and turns around and insults his or her country in ways some have, will never add value to Nigeria. You shouldn't wish to join hands with those, they are worst than rubbish. Not good for Nigeria not good for the nation they reside. They're selfish people, exploiting those nations abroad, evident in broadcasting very publicly thire disloyalty credentials by insulting their nation of birth. The West knows this and will watch them. The West hates traitors. They know that should things turn bad, this type of individual will Japa.

If Nigeria has longer-term planning, insisting that only those with documentation be allowed to return to Nigeria is a must.

Ghana's tactics against Nigeria in football is predictable since it is usually about trying to break the legs of Nigeria players while relying on the anti Nigeria sentiments of African referees and official not to red card them.

SeriouslySense:
Black people are some of the most confused, weak, they can only be useful for slavery, exploitation and in the garbage, we need to stop being the cheerleader's of these western, eastern/middle eastern countries, the first thing we need to do is to love ourselves and appreciate ourselves, we have to stop looking unto others outside of us.

These wars are not our business.

Don't generalise. You cant stop individuals, black, white, Asian or something else, being foolish or acting daft if it is in their DNA. Some humans are born Followers and Disciples. Research has shown that for any cause you care to mention, imagine or invent, there are individuals that will join. Create a movement today in which members are to leap into fire at the end of every year , by months end ,you will attract many followers. And when the year end, these people Will leap into the furnace or pyre created by leaders of the movement. This peculiarity in human behaviour is well understood in the West but in Nigeria such things are politicised. The usual suspects would for instance attribute the Followers of our fictitious, Suicide by Fire, members as wanting to die by fire because Nigeria is already hell. In the West they would attribute this to mental states or that peculiarity of human psychology mentioned earlier. Sure, if you were to interview any of the members of our fictitious Fire Suicide cult, asking them why they would want to commit suicide, some would site the Cult's mantra, others would site as reason the popular societal speculations of the day -In our case, probably that Nigeria is a shithole. In reality, they would do so because it is in their nature.

Naija my country, iro por..�����

Folks here are deliberately preposterous in order to obfuscate thus maintaining a system in which anything goes

Due to the press and wider media , Niaralanders give the impression that every nation apart from Nigeria acted speedily to the relevant situation as it developed in Ukraine. Subsequently every nation, except Nigeria , affected pulled out their citizens . Nigeria, we are told, is acting late. Towards this end, Nigeria govt has provided figures for the cost of repatriating these stranded Nigerians in urgent need of recue - figures Niaralanders find preposterous. Well does anyone know what the cost should instead be so that the figures provided by the govt can be compared and challenged ? And, as alluded at the top of this post, since every nation affected has rescued their citizens, there should be enough information knocking about from which to draw comparative analysis.

Thank you.

Everyone wants a piece of Nigeria without hunoring Nigerians for being the hard working, exciting people that they are

Hannover:
I made my research about the country. It's visa free for Nigerians

So this is all about attracting Nigerians to visit and live in Gambia. If Gambia needs to improve her economy hit by Covid related slump in tourism, why don't they treat thire African Americans citizens with the additional respect they used to provide white tourist. Why not rejoin Senegal and why not beg Nigerians to come over and invest in Gambia rather than adopt that irritating delusional position of superiority I've noticed being increasingly adopted by the most fleabitten and irrelevant African nations?

History informs us that nationals who join wars abroad, on returning home, spearhead or play pivotal rules in domestic militancy, insurgencies, revolutions and sundry anarchy. To mitigate this, Nigeria should, urgently, revoke the citizenship of Nationals that leave nations other than Ukraine in order to fight with Ukraine against Russia. Doing this will also facilitate the speedy nationalization of these Nigerians by Ukraine. Without doing this Ukraine would not grant them citizenship. Whites are rarely grateful.

If the Federal Government of Nigeria failed to do this with those Nigerians that fought abroad as Islamists, I'm willing to believe that the disorganized nature of Irag, Syria and Afghanistan made the technicalities of doing do impractical. Ukraine of Europe is however better organized, war conditions considered. Nigeria should have accurate records with which to work.

crying with joy just fantasising how peaceful and progressive Nigeria would become if authorities could but only organise some sort of, "Come Volunteer And Fight For Ukraine or Russia", recruitment program and it actually worked. And miraculously the following bag of deplorables all volunteered and left Nigeria : bandits, Boko and Ipob types; armed Fulani herdsmen and Unknown Gunmen (with sacks over their heads to preserve their unknowness obviously). Lagos Agberos and miscellaneous nationwide thugs ; ESN and Amotekun people; those that like typing, "Afonjaaar", "Flat-heads" and " this Contraption" on Niaraland - others to be added later. They all went and perished over there

Oh, happy days...
