Countries like Nigeria have a dysfunctional government who can't get basic security right.
Humans are content with their lives as long as their basic needs are met, a fact which the
the communist party and its western adversaries understands.

"Freedom" and ability to like a picture on facebook is meaningless to an hungry man or a
boy living in Somalia. if the Chinese growth trajectory continues, I won't be surprised if
some citizens in western countries will start calling for the adoption of Chinese style government
where government controls everything and "evil" capitalists are destroyed, the foundation is being
laid with the rise of anti-capitalist elements in the west as shown by the recent hamburg protests,
though the protesters don't know this but they are asking for it nevertheless.

It is not for you to judge whether a government has been fair to its people, China has lifted millions
of its citizens out of poverty, the same cannot be said of the various "free" 3rd world countries
who can use twitter and facebook.

People are not interested in a superior form of government, they are interested in a government that
works.

The grass is always greener in another man's country. The same Chinese people we see on the streets of Lagos almost doing menial jobs to keep body and soul together?
Ask the average Chinese man weather he or she is really happy with their government and has been truly lifted from poverty and you will know the truth. That's if they are allowed to really voice out their opinion. If communism really works like you claim, why isn't the rest of the world flocking there like as they head west?

Very provocative news. Reducing the price of petrol by 3 naira and they are using megaphone. Please wake me up when we now buy 50 or even 10 naira self. Iraanu!!!

Chinese communist party is doing everything possible to eliminate competitors.
It knows that the country can only be kept stable by restricting subversive religions.
All the US needs to stop the inevitable Chinese rise is to sow the seed of religion
and voila they will own China without firing a single bullet.

You sound so intelligent. But you seem to forget that countries like Nigeria with more churches per square meters than banking halls have not fallen their government one day. How about really Muslim countries like Saudi Arabia and Co? Communism has not been fair to China in any way possible in this modern age. Isn't it same China that bans Google, and the YouTube, is Twitter and the likes? Why restrict their people from absolute freedom? It's really a sign of rulership of weakness

do a hard reset or Google

is that his kitchen? tell him he needs to invent the art of washing those plates

Owerrians that are supposed to be the most enlightened sets among the Igbo's are here engaging in a show of shame to express their displeasure at the governor's attempt to modernise their city.
If not for Rochas hardwork, Owerri would have been as disgusting and unplanned as Onitsha or Aba. Rather than invoke the good spirits to keep supporting him, they want their wives to keep selling their ukwa and ugba on the roadside.
You can force a horse to the river, but definitely can't force it to drink!

but you all want the Fulani's evacuated from your states because they are not performing well at their jobs?
An Hausa/Fulani butcher cannot perpetrate this henious crime, because it is even haram, I suppose to their religion

1,100 per kilo? Maybe Mrs (Buhari or Dangote) will have interest

Lol. ancestors market. I wonder what they sell there at midnight. Perhaps they are using their daytime provisions store as a clout. Very fetish people.
The wind has blown the tail of the fowl. Ride on Jare, Rochas!

And coming at a time the company is launching their spark series, we need as many Nigerians as possible know that they are about to enter 1 chance with their supposed 12+1 months guarantee.
One better buys a fairly used OEM (original equipment manufacturer, e.g Samsung, HTC) phone or new one of lesser specs from an OEM to enjoy the rest of mind!

There is nothing absolutely wrong in building a railway line to link the President's hometown. Daura is also an actual place in Nigeria.
Besides, Jonathan built a university in his hometown. One always heaps the ridge around himself, not outwards.
When I become the president of Nigeria, I will move the FCT to my hometown. Anyone that complains can mimick this frog's pose.

greedy Igboe woman. She's the perfect example why Igbo's should not be allowed into politics and their Biafra ambition dampened.

Eke40seven:
Ridiculous!
This data is very ridiculous. So I should believe that Nigeria uses more data than Germany and UK?
Do you know that most people only stream movies online and don't download? Downloading from many websites are illegal and one can be fined so they stream!
Check out their YouTube channels and check the number of views. Even for Nigerian songs, the number of views are geared up by foreigners and Nigerians living abroad because data over WiFi is cheap and in many cases free. I get free WiFi whenever I get to my bus stop. At home the WiFi is unlimited at a very cheap price. you cant function without the internet, checking your transportation schedules, looking out for the weather (Yeah! Very compulsory), etc.
I doubt the evaluation methods used, may be they are judging by the number of phone users or Facebook access which by in any case is a reflection of the population and not necessarily how much internet data each country uses.

At least they can't make up such a figure. Do you know the number of smartphone owners in Nigeria compared to the total population? Many of which actively use the internet.
Many of you diasporans still have the photographic knowledge of 1995 etched in your memories about Nigeria since you relocated. You need to come home and witness the modern day Nigeria first hand

So if they are on strike, their brains should be on Stike too? I wonder if the man thinks every civil servant is as poor and miserable as himself.
Many people knows how to use the little they have profitably and are blessed, so even if they are on the same salary scale, they don't have the same level of financial orientation. Besides does he think everyone appreciates sending their children down to public universities to have their lives destroyed by his likes? Half of my colleagues for instance had carry over in a second semester 500L course (many of which was their first) because they lecturer was told in the meeting that he normally passes his students, so he wanted to prove otherwise. They didn't follow us to serve that year upon all pleading and prayers
University lecturers in Nigeria are not known for wisdom though, so I won't blame him.

PierreDeFermat:
so,you're jealous of Bobrisky? I know you wish you were in his shoes getting fat dicks of rich men and collecting millions instead of the small dicks you get in your ass for chicken change

At least you've not caught him on a rich man before, have you. Besides I have more important things to think about in my own life than worry about what goes on in the life of Bobrisky ok.! I.diot.

A number of persons Nigerians love to hate who really gives no damn about the hatred.
1. Zahra Buhari
2. Bobrisky
3. Hushpuppy

These individuals enjoy their lives so much to the hatred and jealousy of their haters who will soon die of hypertension!

evansjeff:
go to the United Kingdom and see what obtains there, your kings over here have lost thier values running after politicians. Have you ever seen the queen running up and down all in the name of attending birthdays, marraiges, and other irrelevances?

The truth is apart from Benin Kingdom, almost all other traditional rulers in Nigeria have turned to mere politicians, they're even selected or elected politically so I'm not suprised.

You ought to keep your unenlightened beer palour thoughts away from the internet. The queen of England going to attend birthdays and other irrelevant outings?
Guess she must have been seen more than once looking into the trash cans of Londoners. Maybe you think the local kind of royalty paraphernalia is what obtains there like in Benin.

evansjeff:
The problem with most of you is that whenever you hear the word "Oba”, you try to equate it with some ajalas in the west or some community heads in the east.

This is BENIN KINGDOM where the KING is TRULY KING.

There are only two kingdoms in the world, The UNITED KINGDOM and the BENIN KINGDOM.

No wonder we are using Bini language to communicate on this forum. (sshia hsueu guayas gogofidso kou kou)
When last have you heard Queen Elizabeth banish anyone from England?
You should be thankful you are not living in your savage Bini kingdom so to say

I once expressed how Edo state is the most backwards in terms of human rights in Nigeria in this modern age. Whatever these old men does between themselves should be handled maturely and settled within the confines of the palace, not this backwards, repressive show of shame that doesn't portray any element of modernity.
This same oba banned people from burying their dead folks earlier this year. why doesn't he take a cue from the Oni of Ife that is projecting the Yoruba well culture internationally, or at least the Obi of Onisha that has conservatively and maturely handled the affairs of his palace ever since?
You will never hear any surprising outburst from the later.

shouldn't we be more concerned that it was reported in the news that the police arrived quickly as soon as they were alerted?

Tolexander:
still wondering the rationale in studying in Benin republic.

Well foreign student na foreign student, even if the school is in Bakassi Peninsula!

you seriously need to go and spend just one day in Cotonou, if you won't come back and share testimonies in your Church/Mosque.

What a clownish affair? Even boys brigade does a better job matching. These ones need to go for series of retraining sessions if they ever hope to face Nigerian soldiers someday. LOL
Reminds me the Scene from Johnny English when Mr Bean said " Observe, Bough, the dull incompetence of the criminal mind. It can never hope to match our level of technical expertise. "

juwoonn:
it's a dirty job and not many people know that the money involved is that much. Even when they are informed, they'll doubt it just the same way you're doubting it now. You charge $20-50 per house and even get tips doing that. you think say na naija.
Peeps be doubting what they don't know

Indeed! Have you ever heard of a machine called street sweeper? What of vacuum cleaners that cleans sitting room floors? A white man will invite a Nigerian to come and clean his house and even give tips afterwards.
Even Cameroonians are wiser than that!

village people's handiwork come in surprising ways. Unfortunately for them, they may be graduates from a a Nigerian tertiary institution.
My friend tells me that in his neighborhood in Lekki, the prevailing currency is dollars for many transactions. Some think that until they are abroad, they cannot make headway in life. Such shame!
I pray you come to your senses like the prodigal son.

juwoonn:
He earns more than most bankers in Nigeria. I meet a guy that makes $2000 every week, moving lawns in the UK. That's about N700,000 every week. These dirty jobs comes with good money. After 5-10 years, they return to Nigeria as big boys, establish companies and your brother's and sisters submit CV to them.

Be deceiving yourself. If truly one can make such money just mowing lawns, I wonder why we have some citizens of that country relying on welfare if such jobs comes with such hefty pay. Are there not Nigerians with more dignifying jobs abroad? Let them brain wash you that the streets over there are paved with gold.

bunch of uncivilized baboons. What can The Nigeria Army do to redeem its soiled image if not fold its arms helplessly? Until the case of the abused lady that hit the front page gets appropriate justice among many others, then I'll believe in the efforts of redeeming it's structure.

And the idio.t lawmaker that moved the motion would be feeling like he has taken one giant step for mankind now.
In the trend of governorship in Nigeria today, Kwara state happens to be one of the backwards in terms of performance. When last have we heard news of their governor commissioning a filling station or a law maker building a signboard for a primary school or hospital to say the list?
What does the greater population of Kwarans know about the activity of strip clubs in their towns? One thing I know such clubs don't share pamphlets.
The sooner we get rid of mediocres in governance, the better it becomes for us!

abuibraheem:
The Problem We Have In This Country Is That Most Of U Have Sold Ur Soul To The Devil, And No Longer See Sinful Acts As A Major Factor In What We Are Currently Going Thru Now. Kwara State Is A State Of People With Good Morals And Fear Of The Creator Of The Universe.

Mr hypocritical man, can you stream your 24/7 unpretentious life on YouTube so we can know if you're holier than those that visit strip clubs?

when God wants to catch, you, He does a neat work. So there is actually a Nigerian Army school of Special forces in Nigeria located in one northern state?
All the military strongholds in Nigeria today is installed in the core north, but that hasn't stop Book haram infestation. How interesting!

The blood of the child is on the head of the careless mother. I wonder what is more important to her than the 24 hour surveillance of the infant. Very hands off mother! After all the well is not inside the sitting room, and it showed the child went a considerable distance to access the well from the first pix

fire burn you!

I'm waiting for Buhari to use the looted funds he has recovered, which he has been saving in his office to settle ASUU once and for all

Interesting! even Superman has more than once saved planet earth from impending attack from the aliens. We all should be thankful!

by the time these Igbo people show you their stuff, you would think twice to associate with them. Just make sure you go with armed guards when you walk their streets.
