[size=15pt]Nigeria will even look worse than that picture with the type of intolerant tyrants and bigots running Nigeria.

Dissent will naturally grow with time from oppression of targeted people and they will naturally be forced to defend themselves at some point, in spite of their reluctance to do so initially. it is only a natural law that where there is hatred and no peace, that picture will be the ONLY natural outcome at some point[/size]

[size=15pt]This thread is an indication that Nigeria is a failed state and the government has totally failed the people. Someone should please draw the attention of our pretentious, biased media outlets to this thread, let them see what the average Nigerian has been reduced to. No matter how the media houses try to paint a false image of this nation, the truth would always find a way out either through public opinion or public outcry. @OP thank you for creating this thread, more grease to your elbow for this. A time is coming when Nigerians would have to raise up and forcefully take what is theirs. Enough of these false promises, The government should be afraid of the people, not the other way round.

[size=15pt]Last words- While I appreciate the generosity shown on this thread, I have to ask the recipients of these 5k something. After these funds get used up (and they will) , then what next? would you just wait for another good Samaritan to come around to help you again? I am not trying to insult anyone but all I am saying is - enough is enough. Nigerian's should rise up and destroy this corrupt system that is running this country to the ground. Topple each and every one of them - regardless of their political party logos or names, they are ALL THE SAME! They enrich their children and leave the masses who voted them in impoverished. Are we going to take what belongs to us or are we just going to fold our hands and watch on the sidelines ? Think about it, Good night.[/size]

One man started this thread to vent. Another joined him, both men managed to achieve two great things; they brought laughter and happiness even if briefly to the lives of the hundreds and thousands that have come across this thread and more importantly, [size=15pt]their wailing encouraged the haves to bless the have nots with small change.[/size]


This is the type of change we speak of, not the tales and fantasies peddled by sly politicians to deceive the gullible and enamour the hopeless. Not the type only spoken, but never felt in the lives of the common man.

Two men brought change to the lives of many tonight and many more assisted them.

I'm still an undergraduate in the University, while many of my peers are still in that fantasyland most undergraduates are, where the only things that bother you are money for clothes, hair and how to remain top of the social ladder, I have come to.realise that the real world is not so fun-filled, that the minute you fold up your NYSC uniform, the fairytale is over.

I shared some of the posts on this thread on a group chat with my nates an most didn't think I wish their time. Some thought I was overreacting and others just laughed it off....but it's their time to laugh.


I want to thank Ddelivere and MaziOmenuko for sharing their true realities, dampening the sour truths with funny narratives. Both of you are truly gifted. Your narratives were reminiscent of the Satirical Contemporary Nigerian Literature, plays like "Wives Revolt" and "Our Husband. Has Gone Mad Again" came to my memory. I don't know your true courses of study, but I tell you this, if you compile your comments on this page and put them in a book, you have a bestseller on your hands. Even better if they are published in their pidgin form


And to Ymodulus, General Overseer of this wonderful initiative as well as AntiWailer, the little you two and everyone who has donated to the cause have contributed in the lives of many tonight will resonate far longer than you could imagine in the lives of a few. That man who wants to buy poultry feeds, the one looking to help his business, tomorrow, that 5k could become 5 million. God's favour will remain with you all.

And of course, Oga Seun and the mod who wonderfully moved this to FP, your rewards will even reach many of your generations.

Thanks to you all....you make Nigeria worth living in

Nigerian Senators on Thursday argued about the nationality of menacing herdsmen allegedly killing in many states, with many lawmakers dismissing claims that they are from neighbouring countries and are not Nigerians.
The senators were considering a motion on the recent attack on a community in Enugu where dozens were killed.
The Chief Whip of the Nigerian Senate, Olusola Adeyeye, has called for a restructuring of the country’s federalism to allow decentralised police system as a way of tackling the ongoing herdsmen violence.
Mr. Adeyeye, an All Progressives Congress Senator from Osun State, said local and state governments should have police force independent of the federally controlled force “issuing orders from Abuja”.
This was part of the Senator’s contribution to debate that followed a motion by Chukwuka Utazi (PDP-Enugu North) on recent killings by suspected herdsmen.
Parts of Mr. Utazi’s constituency was attacked on Monday allegedly by Fulani herdsmen, resulting in deaths of citizens and destruction of properties.
Mr. Adedeye said local governments need to become “actual government in its own rights and not appendages of state government to do its local work”.
Also speaking, Isa Misau (APC-Bauchi State) said the rampaging herdsmen were not Fulani as they came from neighbouring countries “to attack soft targets”.

But the Senate Leader, Ali Ndume, said he could not believe the herdsmen were from Mali, adding that the Nigerian Government has a responsibility to ensure security and welfare of citizens.
He said the country had to take “serious and major” steps towards solving these “senseless killings”.
Adding to the debate, Ben Bruce, from Bayelsa State, expressed fear that there could be reprisals, warning against a time when things could go “awry and out of control”.
As a panacea to the herdsmen-famers clash, Emmanuel Paulker, from Delta State, encouraged the creation of ranches.
“Those who own cattle should have their own ranches,” Mr. Paulker said.
The Minority Leader, Godswill Akpabio, representing Akwa Ibom, disputed the claim the rampaging herdsmen are from neighbouring countries, such as Mali and Niger.
Dismissing the claim as “political statement,” [size=20pt]Mr. Akpabio said “95 per cent of them are Nigerians”.
Harping on Mr. Adeyeye’s point, he called for empowerment local vigilante groups.[/size]
In its resolutions, the Senate condoled with Enugu State and observed one-minute silence in honour of citizens killed.
The Senate resolved to send a delegation to be led by Mr. Ndume to console with the people and make on-the-spot assessment.
It also asked the Police to take urgent step to bring the culprits to book.
Additionally, it said its relevant Committees would meet to find lasting solutions to the crisis
