Never trust a world power. No point in romancing with Russia and China to break free from west. That is not a good pathway to true independent Africa.

That's what Nigerians don't understand. Africa needs to be independent. We should not exchange one master for another.

And Russia no send us oh. Putin is just doing this to irritate the west and our people are falling for it.

You did not show us any evidence that it was a lie. You just started insulting Nigerians.

Show us prove that it was a lie.

The ones you're replying are not novices or kids that don't know how long it takes to make the first real profit. Everyone knows this. Everyone will tell you this when you try out any business.

If you're in Nigeria, and you operate a business that the employees can rip you off and steal from, you'll make massive losses. There's no escaping that.

Employees in Nigeria will steal from you. That's a fact! It's funny when people say this won't always happen. It's because they don't own a business here.

If you're operating a farm and you're not monitoring it every single day, sorry is your case. For example employees literally break eggs into bottles to smuggle out of the farm. Now, of what use will these broken eggs be to them financially? There's just that terrible mentality that we have in this country. Some of the thefts won't even make sense to you.

Someone like you comes off as a straightforward, simple person. It's people like you I pity the most when it comes to getting into certain businesses.

I said not all employees are out to cheat you.

I have worked at several places and I will say it again not all employees are out to cheat you. This "they will cheat me attitude" is what has kept alot of people from starting their own business. The people that own businesses in this country, did they do something mysterious to prevent cheating?

I have worked in a company where you can take 50k every other day and nobody will easily notice, guess what? nobody cheated.

If you have a good system in place and treat your employees well, there is a kind of intense loyalty to you that that will foster that even if there is a cheat in their midst, he or she will not be able to do anything.

I have worked where employees were treated well and where they felt like low paid slaves and the level of cheating and loyalty was like night and day.

Now I am not saying that there are no animals in human form that will steal no matter what but not everyone is out to cheat you.

As for the profit thing, alot of people don't know that it takes time.

While I understand you, I don't agree totally.

I know people that started businesses, did well and expanded their businesses. It depends on the business, the area and the employees. Not all employees are out to cheat you.

I think alot of the problems start with you wanting instant gain. It does not work like that. Businesses can take up to a few years to pick up and start making profits. I have seen this one happen.

Yes, it is harder to start and maintain a business here but that's what makes it very profitable when that business picks up.

Them dey hear?
Breast milk is a complete meal for newborn babies that baby formula can never replace.

Our water is bad so giving it to newborn babies that don't yet have a robust immune system is a recipe for disaster.

But will they hear?

Kobojunkie:
They didn't know their way back to civilization when things got too hard to handle or what?

Maybe shame? 🤷‍♂️ Who knows?

crossbreedwears:
What has the democracy done for you?

Freedom
This may not sound like a lot to you but ask those in a military dictatorship and they will tell you how it is.

Even China and Russia that are not even military dictatorships curtail the freedom of their people a lot. Go and see what they do to their activists and people with dissenting opinions.

Or do you think the audacity we have to ridicule politicians here will be tolerated in a military regime.

Guy, be careful what you wish for.

Nice2023:
If u have had a brother that was kidnapped and eventually killed u won't say all this.

Ever since the say firing squad stopped in this country,just look at how bad Nigeria has turned.

I,personally witnessed babangida and Abacha and i think,they were not as bad and insensiitive as these recent criminals we now have.

So you think it's lack of firing squad that's reason for the increase in crime? 🤔
That's a pure lie.

Nigeria does not need a military dictator, we deserve democracy.

thisisit:
Thank God the coup was Successful.....

Nigeria and Niger have almost everything in common. Therefore reincarnation of Modern Military Government (MMG) in Nigeria, would be a very welcomed development.

I am sure you have never lived under a military dictatorship that's why you are clamoring for it. Democracy for all of its faults is still the best form of government.
May we not be like the cow that never knew that his tail was useful until he lost it.

Kingabia1998:
Look at mumu mugu
Moo I don't even understand your anarchy, electrification of vehicles is it a rocket science that is hard for you to understand

What are you even saying?
What he said was true, poop was one of the reasons cars were quickly adopted. Cities smelled a lot then.
Only for you to start talking about electric vehicles.

Na children truly full this nairaland.

MrsTwrite:
They would have shot one of thier tyres for easy access.

It's not easy to aim and shoot tyres oh. I think this is the best way they could have handled it make them no go use mistake end person life.

"Up" ↗️ is the trajectory we are all hoping for in our lives, whether it will come to pass remains to be seen.

I will personally wait till next year before rating this government. Unlike a lot of people, I knew that the path to prosperity in Nigeria will be hard and it will require difficult decisions that will make things worse in the short term for its citizens.

So I wait first.

Is it that people don't have conscience or what?

Ourtruth247:
It's funny how I am trying as much as I can to post verifiable evidence along with pictures, yet some people are trying to debunk my arguments by telling me to "ask northerners"

It's actually funny.

It's not funny, you are bending the facts to fit your theory instead of the other way around.

Maps are not irrefutable proofs, Infact when reading the history of cartography you will learn that cartographers regularly made up things instead of admitting they don't know. Even at that there are maps showing the Sahara desert from the 1500s on Google that a single search will show you.

And that image there is how craters appear all over the world, again a single Google search will show you tens if not hundreds of images. So does that mean all those places were "nuked" according to your theory?

Sahara became a desert thousands of years ago. That is a fact.

But you won't listen, you like conspiracy theories because they make you seem smart when it is actually the opposite.

Next time cook a very good one not this one that can be easily debunked with a few Internet searches.

There is nothing inherently wrong with Africans, we only just started governing ourselves so we are just trying to figure things out.

Our leaders still think corruption is the way to go.

But on every indices, Africa is rising. Things are bad but it is getting better FAST. compare the statistics now with that of 60 years ago and you will see remarkable progress despite the ups and downs.

Almost every other country in the list of top ten largest economies had centuries if not thousands of years as headstart.

I have a friend like you who is into conspiracy theories, it is actually very funny to watch.

Well the Sahara have been a desert for thousands of years, thousands. Go ask northerners and they will tell you that it has always been a desert since the time of their father's father's going back centuries.

Read history books and all them despite the differences all said that the Sahara has always been a desert.

You are just saying nonsense and the sad thing is that some people will believe you without doing their own research.

elpochas:
which drugs pls.

What Shitstain said. Take the result to a pharmacy.

Please continue taking the drugs even when the symptoms are gone. Take it for two weeks.

Take the drugs for two weeks steady. It will clear, no injection or drip, just tablets for two weeks. Then do the test again to confirm that it's gone

And I was a fan of JW oh! This one bad oh

Why will he not be upset? Is he not a human being?

He should get upset but he should not forgive her because this one don pass cheating, this one is for the streets.

Starboytwo:
I will make it short

A girl went to the staff room to report my friend that he touch her breast.

My friend denied and I supported him by saying I was there

Long story short.
Last last 2 of us collect 6 6 strokes of cane. For something wey no consine me.

Since then, I was never there. I can never be there in anything.

😁😂🤣
No be lie boss

Freedom is an illusion. We are never truly free in this life.

Galaxyss:
The tweet is already deleted.

Now now?

So Hitler that killed millions of people was right? You are something else.

I'd prefer Africans to be like the Indians, that means we should be neutral. We can't exchange one lord for another. The Russians and Chinese are as bad if not worse than 19th century Europeans.

Ibrahimmrfish:
IPOB,Lord resistance army and KKK are all Muslims?

If you read my post you will see where I said "almost".

Stop this disinformation. It was the Serbs that wanted to ethnically cleanse Muslims from their land not NATO. Stop dragging NATO into everything. Both Muslims and Christians have done despicable things and in the current world almost all terrorist are Muslims.

BigdaddyPR:
One thing I really don't like is the way some blacks consistently moan about racism, the idea that whites must like them and validate them is sickening.

The Jews at some point were regarded as the filth of the earth, mostly poor, were seen to have no real economic value, they were hated so much that a regime wanted to exterminate all of them. Over 70 years after the holocaust, the Jews are in all centres of power in the US, in wall street, silicon valley, US congress, billionaires, heads of major corporations, TV etc. They didn't seek validation, they got better educated, got more skilled and the rest they say is history.

It is that mindset that blacks need to cultivate, Tyler perry was motivated to build his own studio, if they aren't going to invite you to the table, build your own table.

Who cares if they don't like you; Opportunities abound, harness those opportunities like the Jews did and give back to your community.

Na man you be brother. They like blaming and seeking validation from the whites that it is getting irritating.

Thank God you mentioned the Jews. My people will not see that as an example and something to learn from.

Africans don't just like to take responsibility for their problems.

Na wa oh

Actually the EU does not bow to the US, Infact they have been at loggerheads since Trump. EU is making life miserable for US tech companies and the US recently slammed a tariff on European solar products. I think 'Frenemies' would best describe their relationship.

Of clowns. Annoying and wicked clowns.
