₦airaland Forum

Nigerians! It's not only UAE that does this. Eastern European countries like Bulgaria and the other Balkan states have tougher rules for Nigerians in particular because una wahala too much. No be by force you must travel, you mention farming to a Nigerian they will say God forbid but will happily go and wash toilet and shave old women toto for care home abroad.

yazz09:
@op you are an example of blind drivers trying to claim he knows it all. Tell me a president of this nation since 1960 that has turned the economy of this nation for the better. From our independence till now this administration has been the one that has constructively changed this nation in all the various sectors.
The man you are campaigning for when he was the president what did he do to make this nation better. If we start writing his atrocities it will be a book on its own. I personally choose to vote for someone that has brought real transformation to our country, despite his mistakes. Nobody is perfect and nobody can do it all, but I'll not stand for a visionless, revenge seeking tyrant.

GEJ all the way.

Well, you can counter the OP's arguments with GEJ's achievements in office. Tell us how Nigerians lives has improved in the past 6years, show us the reduction in queues in foreign embassies, show us how the power sector has improved, lecture us on how the security issues has improved in the past 6 years instead of lame responses.

tecmon:
Op , so for all these your half cooked lies and disingeniusly engineered detractions, you want to give Nigerians a proven illiterate despot, a pejuror, a forger, and a jihadist for a president ?, you belong to #Team Failure.

Can you please tell us the lies in the article.

Mr President is the only president in the world whose parliament gulps 75% of the national budget as alleged by the CBN Gov. yet they still soak themselves in $625m bribery scandal.
Jonathan has not even initiated let alone fulfilling a single campaign promises except the one that he needs to surround himself with brain dead women in his cabinet.

If that's not enough to engage most Nigerians brain to see this government is hopeless, then nothing will.

Chinaimporter:
Religion is the cry of the oppressed creature, the heart of a heartless world, and the soul of soulless conditions. It is the opium of the people.

The abolition of religion as the illutionary happiness of the people is the demand for their real happiness. To call on them to give up their illusions about their condition is to call on them to give up a condition that requires illusions. The criticism of religion is, therefore, in embryo, the criticism of that vale of tears of which religion is the halo.

A lot of people on this forum are so dumb that they will not be able to comprehend your post.

I'm really fed up with all these idiotic posts ending up on the FrontPage.

podosci:
like seriously?.....Don't allow GEJ stupidity contact you
2years As VP
2years as President to completes Yaraduas tenure
4years as president on his own tenure
And he needs 4 more years to prove himself?
Stop thjnking like a Nigerian, Think like a human

Best comment so far on this forum. If GEJ was any good his works will speak for him.

RotrEmmanuel:
GEJ Weldon oo

Too little too late after thousands have been killed due to inaction. That forest should have been bombarded three years ago and not a couple of weeks before the election.

Inbreds!

MalcoImX:
Why these inducements? Do you even have to give people rice/beans if you have worked well?

Because Nigerians are so dumb they will sell the future of their children for a bag of rice. Same people that will be moaning years later that the government is bad.

You Nigerians love going back to your vomit, it's like you guys are allergic to change. It beggars belief how anyone will choose to vote back the dumbest president ever for another four years in office.

flyca:
Pls how can I use my Andriod as a remote control?

Go to Google play store, there are lots of apps from TV manufacturers and indie developers that can work on specific TV models.

The iPhone 6 Apple fans are making noise about has got specs basic Android phones like the HTC Desire HD had about 4 years ago. People are splashing out money on a glorified plastic just because it has the Apple logo on it. So much for the power of corporate marketing.

olusolaj:
Let the probability of student with both football boots and footballs be x
Then: (3/4 - x) + (7/8 - x) + x = 1
Then x=5/8
Therefore the of students with both football boots and footballs = 5/8 * 24
=15

I'm feeling you man! Nice try.

Well, This is the hardest maths question I ever came across anyone who gets it right is a damn genious

A class has less than 30 students
Exactly 3/4 of them own footballs
Exactly 7/8 of them own football boots.

i)How many students are there in the class?

ii)How many students own both football boots and footballs?

Nigeria is at war. Our Military is fighting an internationally backed terrorist group being supported by insiders.

Nigeria shall surely win the battle.

God please continue to strengthen the hands of our soldiers

May Allah grant peace to the troubled region and expose the evil people.

You need to be awarded a Nobel prize for this list.

You wait till you get a weeping willy or any other gentle man disease, then you will know you should not be sleeping around.

Apart from the fact Adolf Hitler had only one testicle, here are some of the facts many people don't know about:

https://cdn3.whatculture.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Adolf-Hitler.gif

20. He Spied On The Nazi Party Before Joining Them

https://cdn3.whatculture.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/2.1280096.jpg
Having served in the German Army during World War I, Hitler decide to remain in the forces following the Armistice and he was made an intelligence agent (Verbindungsmann) of the Reichswehr.
Interestingly, Hitler was tasked with infiltrating the German Workers’ Partry (DAP) – the predecessor to the National Socialist German Workers’ Party, or Nazi Party – but he soon switched allegiances.
After just a few DAP meetings, Hitler realised he shared the same anti-Semitic, nationalist and anti-Marxist views as the leader Anton Drexler and joined the Party, becoming their 55th member.

19. Hitler Lived In Homeless Shelters For A Period

https://cdn3.whatculture.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/adolf-hitler-painting-600x300.jpg

During his teens, Hitler dreamed of being an artist and was twice rejected from Vienna’s Academy of Fine Arts (in both 1907 and 1908) due to “his unfitness for painting”.
Following his second rejection, Hitler remained in Vienna and tried to make a living out of selling his paintings but – partly due to their poor quality and partly due to his lack of resources – he quickly ran out of money.
This forced Hitler, as a young adult, to revert to dossing in homeless shelters in Vienna and – whenever he sold a painting – he would occasionally spend the night in a hostel instead.

18. The Great Reformer Martin Luther Was One Of His Influences

https://cdn3.whatculture.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/martin-luther-hitler.jpg

As a quite angry individual, Hitler blamed Germany’s woes on many things – and one of those he termed “Catholic Germanophobia”.
This led him to become inspired by Martin Luther – the great leader of the Protestant Reformation of the 16th Century – due to the former friar’s dismissal of the Catholic Church.
Despite having been brought up as a Catholic as a child, Hitler despised Christianity – and particularly the papacy – yet he found inspiration from Luther.

17. Hitler Was Awarded The Iron Cross First Class

https://cdn3.whatculture.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/1914-st-class-iron-cross-Occult-History-Third-Reich-Peter-Crawford.png

It was during the Great War that Hitler really discovered his love for all things German, even if those concepts had already been formulating in his head for some time.
What’s more, Hitler was originally awarded the Iron Cross Second Class for military service – but he was then upgraded to receive the First Class in August 1918 on the recommendation of Lieutenant Hugo Gutmann, his Jewish superior.
Hitler was awarded the First Class medal despite being a member of the lowly Gefreiter rank – the second lowest in the German Army – in which it was extremely rare to be commended.

16. Shicklgruber Was His Original Family Name

https://cdn3.whatculture.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/adolf-hitler-old.jpg

Adolf Hitler is the name that has come to by synonymous with the murder of six-million Jews – yet it could so easily have been Adolf Shicklgruber instead.
The name “Hitler” was only taken by Adolf’s father, Alois, in 1876 so that he could become legitimised. In fact, the name “Hitler” could also be spelled as “Hüttler”, “Huettler” or even “Hiedler”.

15. Hitler Was “Nationless” For Seven Years

https://cdn3.whatculture.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/2.12461334.jpg

Although he later professed his goal for a Grossdeutschland (“Greater Germany”), Hitler was in fact Austrian by birth.
Yet from a young age Hitler longed to be part of Imperial Germany and despised the Habsburg’s Austro-Hungarian Empire – formally renouncing his Austrian citizenship in April 1925.
He did this despite the fact it prevented him from running for public office in Germany and left him at risk at deportation at any time – and, until he was awarded citizenship of Brunswick in February 1932, Hitler technically was “nationless” or “stateless” as he did not have a formal nationality.

14. Whistling When You Wish Upon A Star Was One Of Hitler’s Hobbies

https://cdn3.whatculture.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/Family-Guy-Hitler.jpg

Yes, you did read the heading correctly – Hitler used to whistle tunes including When You Wish Upon A Star.
The German leader supposedly relaxed by whistling, or performed the hobby in moments of euphoria – such as when he stood on the balcony looking across Paris following the fall of the French capital in June 1940.
Another favourite tune of Hitler’s was Who’s Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf? – presumably due to his nickname of “The Wolf”.

13. Hitler Was Temporarily Blinded At Least Once

https://cdn3.whatculture.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/Hitler.jpg

During World War I, while serving in the trenches as a messenger, Hitler was temporarily blinded following a mustard gas attack on his camp.
The injuries forced Hitler to be hospitalised and he was admitted to a unit in Pasewalk, Germany, to recover.
According to Hitler himself, he also suffered a second temporary spate of blindness upon hearing of the horrifying news of Germany’s Armistice with France and Britain. This, however, is unconfirmed.

12. It Is Likely He Had Parkinson’s Disease

https://cdn3.whatculture.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/hitler.jpg

Throughout his life Hitler suffered from any number of illnesses, injuries and ailments – and one that doctors diagnosed him with was Parkinson’s disease.
Hitler suffered from physical and mental symptoms of the disease for the last 11 years of his life and it is argued by some historians that possible dementia as a result of the illness affected his decision-making during World War II.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0w3nsAaOpq4

Videos of Hitler’s speeches show his hands trembling, his legs stiffening and an inability to move freely – all classic symptoms of Parkinson’s disease.

11. He Never Set Foot In A Concentration Camp

https://cdn3.whatculture.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/auschwitz.jpg

The vast majority of the 11million people killed during the Holocaust were murdered at the 1,200 Death and Concentration Camps established by the Nazis – yet Hitler never set foot in one of them.
In some ways it is perhaps unsurprising due to the fact the majority of the camps were constructed in the east, but still it is a rather baffling fact.
Interestingly, some historians have argued that the camps were deliberately set up in Poland, the Czech Republic, the USSR and Yugoslavia because Hitler wanted the number of atrocities committed on German soil to be limited.


10. Hitler Was TIME Magazine’s Man Of The Year For 1938

https://cdn3.whatculture.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/hitlerAProfile.jpeg

“I have returned from Germany with peace for our time” were the infamous words uttered by British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain on his return from the Munich Conference in September 1938.
That conference – conducted between French Premier Edouard Daladier, Italian leader Benito Mussolini, Hitler and Chamberlain himself – was perceived at the time to have prevented a world war due to the fact Germany were granted the Sudetenland, part of Czechoslovakia.

https://cdn3.whatculture.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/hitler-time_man_of_year_1938.jpg

Such a monumental event of “peacekeeping” led Hitler to be named “without a doubt” as TIME magazine’s Man of the Year for 1938. Incredible when you think about it now…

9. He Contemplated Being A Priest During His Childhood

https://cdn3.whatculture.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/2.6116826.jpg

Although he soon shunned his Catholic upbringing, Hitler did hold aspirations to be a priest during his childhood. As an eight-year-old, Hitler was a proud member of the church choir and took up singing lessons in order to improve his vocals.
But Hitler’s religious beliefs soon faded and he became an atheist to the very core – shattering any dreams he may have previously held of becoming a priest…

8. Three Of His Six Siblings Died When He Was A Child

https://cdn3.whatculture.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/congr-os-de-nuremberg-hitler-01-g1-e1317752793505-600x300.jpeg

Hitler was far from an only child – in fact, he had six siblings, four of whom died before his 25th birthday.
Three of them actually died when he was still an infant – their names were Gustav, Ida and Otto. Alois Hitler and Klara Polzl’s fourth child was named Adolf – and he was the one who went on to become infamous.

7. Hitler Crafted Laws Against Animal Cruelty

https://cdn3.whatculture.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/2.20847162-600x400.jpg

Yes, this one is going to seem extremely strange considering the innumerable human atrocities he ordered during his lifetime, but Hitler despised animal cruelty.
A committed vegetarian, Hitler was put off meat when he was young – legend has it as a result of witnessing an autopsy – and became determined to protect animals.
He helped to implement laws which protected wild animals, chickens and cattle – and he intended to reduce Germany’s meat consumption after World War II.

6. Hitler Wanted To Create The “Museum Of An Extinct Race”

https://cdn3.whatculture.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/Auschwitz.jpg

It is widely documented that Hitler wanted to exterminate an entire race – his regime oversaw the murder of six-million Jews – but he did not want to completely eliminate their memory.
Despite his attempt “to rid the world of Bolshevik Jewry”, Hitler demanded that artefacts, paintings and air-looms of any Jews murdered were retained.
His intention was to create a gallery for German people to come and view such artefacts – named the “Museum Of An Extinct Race”…

5. He Was Prescribed Cocaine – And Took It Twice A Day

https://cdn3.whatculture.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/2.2510346.jpg

Drugs were administered to Hitler on a frighteningly regular basis – and he was even prescribed to take cocaine twice a day.
Hitler would use an inhaler to get a regular fix of the drug to aid with his sinus and throat problems throughout his time in office during the Third Reich. Additionally, Hitler was also provided with eye drops that also contained cocaine – so it seems he was smacked up a heck of a lot of the time…

4. Hitler Was Nominated For The 1939 Nobel Peace Prize

https://cdn3.whatculture.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/peace-600x300.png

Alongside Soviet dictator Joseph Stalin, Adolf Hitler is among the names to have been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize.
However, in contrast to Stalin, the nomination of Hitler in 1939 by EGC Brandt was supposed to be ironic.
Swedish parliamentarian Brandt nominated Hitler in order to satirically criticise the Swedish government – but, unsurprisingly, it was not very well received and he was forced to withdraw it.

3. Hitler Was Injected With Bull Testicle Extract

https://cdn3.whatculture.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/2.1137539.jpg

Weirdly, cocaine was not the most unusual “drug” which Hitler took during his time as Fuhrer of Germany. No, that would in fact be bull testicle extract.
His personal physician, Dr Morell, recommended he be injected with extracts from bulls’ testicles and prostates in order to improve his diminishing libido.
Oh Eva Braun – you lucky, lucky woman…

2. The Blow-up Doll Was Pioneered Under Hitler’s Leadership

https://cdn3.whatculture.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/adolf-hitler-blow-up-doll-600x300.jpg

The blow-up doll was not pioneered by Hitler for his own personal pleasure, but it was in fact created in order to prevent the spread of syphilis among German soldiers.
The Wehrmacht enjoying spending their spare time in Vichy France liaising with the local prostitutes and this led to an epidemic of syphilis spreading among the soldiers.
Hitler therefore commissioned a top-secret project to create blow-up dolls which could be put in soldier’s packs – then they could do with them as they pleased…

1. He Shaved His Moustache Because It Nearly Killed Him

https://cdn3.whatculture.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/Doctor-Who-Hitler.jpg

While his trench was experiencing a mustard-gas attack during the First World War, Hitler tried to pull his respirator mask over his face. However, due to his – then full – moustache, an air lock could not be created to keep out the gas and Hitler almost died due to the presence of the gas.
As a result, Hitler was ordered by his superiors to remove his moustache – instead, he trimmed it to the distinctive, toothbrush-shaped style that he became associated with due to his love of all things Charlie Chaplin.

Only in Nigeria!

ChristineC:
I'm sure that's all Jonathan's fault. When you sit down to scrutinise the rot in every sector which has accumulated over the years (Buhari's tenure inclusive), then come back and preach me some more gospel - you may make sense by then!

He should not put himself forward to serve as president if he's not capable of effecting any positive change. Just tell me how the average Nigerian life has improved over the past 4 years, the way he has handled the security situation in the country is enough to show how incompetent he is.

ChristineC:
If you didn't run on the first day you berthed on earth, then your post is terribly senseless

You know countries like the UAE and Qatar was mostly an arid desert land at the time Nigeria got its independence. Compare both countries now before you rant on about running before walking. Nigeria is over half a century old and it's still crawling.

50mph locomotive train in the 21st century. Nigerians must be really dumb to be treated like this by their leaders.

How can a primary 6 kid be working as a maid? And you get black people moaning about white slavery. It's really sad you lots can be so evil to your kind.

kITATITA:
They were purchased by GEJ for distribution to farmers. They are farming tools, not weapons. ?

Cutlass in the 21st century? Why's he not promoting mechanized farming?

These guys are enjoying the sweat and blood of Nigerians and yet this uncle duh duh we call president gave Abacha a national honor.
