Romance › Re: Not All Women Want Your Money… by obailala(m): 12:54am On Nov 27, 2019
I guess people attract their likes. I've met and dated women who never asked for a dime from me; Yes Nigerian women. I always had to be the one to even force favours on them. I must confess though, I've also met some hungry Nigerian girls who wouldn't be able to respect themselves even if their lives depend on it.
Politics › Re: Allen Onyema Cautioned By Nigerians Before US Fraud Sagay by obailala(m):
Difrent:
STOP IT PLEASE
Alamieyeseigha and INNOSON cases are completely different from this. Onyema got forex from CBN to buy planes, the money got to America but instead of using it for it's purpose he started distributing the money to various accounts, WHY? that's the question he needs to answer. HE IS INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY..but the system has noticed infractions and suspicious transactions and have asked him to come prove them wrong.
The US issue seems to be a simple one which Onyema can easily squeeze himself out of by presenting some necessary documentation and legal argument. But instead of allowing the man sort himself, hordes of painfully dumb theorists have plunged a US matter into a Nigerian inter-tribal war tagging it the handiwork of enemies and blaming Yorubas, Fulanis and Nigerian govt for trying pull down a good Igbo man after he did a charitable work which the govt couldnt do. How exactly did we degenerate to this sort of insanity? Sometimes it's really shameful being Nigerian.

If you do statistics in school, you ll know that the percentage of people achieving success in a sane clime is higher when compares to those living in Nigeria
A system that works profits many, but whether a system works or not, many people can still prosper with the right mindset, discipline and hardwork. As bad as the Nigerian system is, there're still many who prosper. Conversely, as good as the UK system is, there're still many who haven't prospered so once again, it's an individual thing!

Unfortunately, many people limit themselves with this defeatist mindset that they cannot make it because the system is bad. Some believe they can never prosper except they leave the country or resort to criminality (with the belief that only those involved in illegality make it in Nigeria). At the end, you are a product of your mindset! You are a product of what you believe!

people prospering in Nigeria are usually people of questionable characters

Corrupts people

Nigeria system only Favours corrupt people
This mindset is one of the foremost reasons many people aren't prospering in Nigeria; a lot of people believe they must be involved in illegality before they can prosper. That's the reason we glorify thieves and fraudsters and look up to these characters as role models. Your mind controls your destiny!

Loads of people also prosper in Nigeria where the system doesn't work, and there're also people in those places where things work who haven't prospered like this after decades. SO in summary, it's an individual thing.

Nobody is pushing any Persecution complex. We are saying what we see clearly. In a country where every big man is not totally innocent why must our top men be the ones targeted? EFCC is already flexing muscle on Onyeama's case but where have they been all the while men like Dahiru mangal and Tinubu have been accused of engaging in dubious means to get wealth?
"You are an Igbo man" but all your posts go against the Interest of the Igbo whether wrong or right while you promote those of the others. You are an Igbo man but you get orgasm from opposing your people. Please rethink your Igboness. Or are you an Osu? If yes, then there is no use for me to correct you.
My posts are not against any Igbo interests; my posts are against a nonsense retrogressive and nauseating mentality which I've noticed is now fast becoming a norm... Igbo big men aren't the only ones who have had challenges or have been investigated or indicted by the system either home or abroad. So why exactly is it that any time an Igbo elite faces any issue, the narrative never falls short of "they want to pull him down because he's Igbo"? Is that the mentality you want me to imbibe to be a true Igbo person? Even before the news hits the airwaves, it will instantly be tribalised by those claiming it's Yorubas and Hausas trying to pull down successful Igbo men.

If what you term "against Igbo interest" is my condemnation of the incessant proliferation of victim mentality, needless paranoia, persecution complex, irrational defense of nonsense and always creating watery conspiracies and blaming blaming and blaming and fighting other large Nigerian tribes whenever an Igbo big man faces challenges, then so be it. If this retrogressive mentality is what you want me to promote to be a true Igbo person, then I'm sorry, I'd gladly accept your Osu tag because I will not be given to nonsense. Afterall no be today people like you on this forum don dey call me Yoruba.

I guess I am praying for the bolded to fail no harder than you are praying for Igbo business men to fail. Innoson,Ibeto and Onyeama are part of our first 11. Why should they be having all these probs and the first eleven of others are not? Are they the only ones who have circumvented laws?
Why exactly would I pray for anyone's business to fail? Only sick people do that. You want top businessmen from other tribes to fail because you think few top igbo businessmen are having one or two challenges; that's very sick and you and anyone else who reasons like this need some medicament!

I'm an igbo man and I wish no one evil; I just find this never ending victim mentality/persecution complex thing too nauseating. When will people ever get tired of this nonsensical "it is because he is Igbo" mentality? Everyone is always leaving their business to come and attack Igbos!

Meanwhile regarding your earlier question, I guess when First Nation Airline went belly up because of debt, it was because Tinubu was an Igbo man too right? Wake up man! This mentality is ridiculous.

What challenges are Orji Kalu, Arthur Eze, ABC Orjiako, Cosmas Maduka, Emeka Offor etc facing?....

This was my first post on this thread:
obailala:
Every big man out there, Nigerian or foreigner, is involved in one form of sharp practice or the other. But you only get to the limelight if you offend the powers that be in any way.

In this case, Onyema cancelling a $1.1 billion Boeing order from the US and apparently taking same funds to Brazil (Embraer) could have just angered the 'gods'
Can someone please explain to me where the ethnic colouration in the above statement is or how this fellow interpreted it as ethnic and brought tinubu into the discussion? Can you not see how consumed you are in your ethnic mentality that it's now making you schizophrenic? You think everybody you encounter online is another slowpoke involved in your Nigerian inter-tribal stupidity?

The Allen Onyema case is all over the place and I could count at least 10 live Nairaland threads on it but you say I do not have a right to comment on the case because that is being ethnic? Or only an Igbo person has a right to talk of Allen Onyema case, any one else that talks of it is being tribal? It's sad that you don't realise how ridiculous you sound. It's actually an Igbo person talking to you by the way, just so you know how shallow your comment is.

Lorenzop:
But he made valid points....ask your self why was Ibeto silenced just to enthrone Dangote?....what about Innoson?.....the list is endless. See these things are open secret, even someone in elementary class will ask these salient questions.

I am not vouching for Allen Onyeama but you should know that US is the big bully here once they consider anyone a threat to their dominance or you don't do their bidding.

Example, Iran continues to face sanctions just because Trump unilaterally pulled out of the nuclear deal Obama had with them, even their European friends attested that Iran has not broken any rule....guess what the US continues yo bully and coerce the EU to do its bidding just to mess up Iran....do you know there is a cure for both cancer and HIV aids?....I guess you don't know but you know what....the US and its western allies won't allow the proliferation of such drugs....why because they make a lot of money from HIV and cancer drugs being produced in the US and of course the money goes straight back to US economy. This brings me to the current issue....Air peace cancelled a deal of over $1B just to patronise Brazil, do you know what that money will do to a country's economy.... That's where the bully act comes in....its more like since you wont patronise us, let's pin some dirt on him.....Trump himself isn't clean....another bug example is Facebook.... Please google Facebook dark secrets...you will better understand that the US protects its own and kills another.....irrespective of Allen Onyeama's tribe.....the US will still met out the same treatment.... My point is...stop ass licking them....they ain't saints

Truly the black man was taught to hate themselves
Are Ibeto and Innoson the only Nigerian businessmen that have faced challenges from business competitors/ rivals? Is Ibeto the only businessman in Nigeria that Dangote has trampled on through govt connection even within the cement business? Have you heard of BUA and what dangote did to him in the sugar business? Is BUA also Igbo?... Is Innoson the only businessman that has faced issues with our cartel-like exploitative banks? Why cant some of you folks just see anything beyond tribal conspiracy? Are you not sick and tired of this repeated line "its because he's Igbo"? Doesnt it now sound ridiculous in your own ears?.... Which ethnic group in Nigeria is enjoying economic support or paradise or having it well?... Not even the born to rule northerners are enjoying anything economically. Why does it always have to be about Igbos Igbos Igbos and why does every other tribe always have to be blamed?... The rest of Nigerians are sick of it and people get tired of Igbos because of this never ending victim mentality/persecution complex and "it is because he's Igbo" nonsense.

Dangote who you used as an example even enjoyed the same FG backing under northern and southern governments, are you then implying even GEJ supported Dangote to knock Ibeto out of business because GEJ hates Igbos too?... If Allen's case now was in Nigeria now, only God knows the kind of tribal wailing and victim mentality crusade that would have been happening now as if to say he's the first Nigerian businessman that has ever been accused of anything. Even as it is now, some persons couldnt resist the urge to say it is jealous Yorubas and Hausas that went and reported Allen to US authorities. Haba!

Seriously this mentality needs to be exorcised before it totally consumes Igbos. I'm an Igbo man myself but I'm sick of hearing it so I imagine how others would even feel.

Truth you say?... You mean your continous proliferation of mental slavery? A theory that everyone else in Nigeria is ganging up day and night like witches to ensure Igbos dont succeed? A theory that every one else (or perhaps just Yorubas and Hausas) are responsible for every problem faced by am Igbo man?

I asked a question, which tribe in Nigeria is enjoying economic Utopia? Which person in Nigeria, big or small, doesnt have challenges? An answer is needed to these question since the narrative since thy kingdom come has always been that everyone else is enjoying and happy while only Igbos are being held down and oppressed by our failed system.

Air Peace: This Entire Stuff Smells of Nigerian/
International Conspiracy
Like I always say, no matter how strong your allegiance for Nigeria is, provided you came from Igboland, Nigerians and Nigerian government will still come after you to frustrate you in business.
Don't be surprised that those who outnumbered other ethnic groups that were rescued from South Africa by this man are involved in this setup, in collaboration with foreign airline operators.
Till when will these Igbo business moguls understand that they can't flourish in one Nigeria that they always try to belong to, till when will they understand that no matter how hard they try to identify with one Nigeria, that the Fulanis and the Yorubas will never love them?
They did this to:
- Engr. Ezekiel Izuogu
who was the first automobile producer in black Africa, who produced a prototype he called Z300 automobile, he was frustrated and silenced till today.
- Ibeto
Who owned a chemical plant in the USA, and also produced a large scale of cement and planned to flood the Nigerian market with it in a very low price of $1 per bag, he was frustrated and was forced out of production of cement while those cements were still on the high seas upon till this day, he also pays dumorage for them till this moment.
- Innoson
Who started automobile production of cars and other vehicles and planned to give brand new vehicles to Nigerians at loan basis to help the common man in Nigeria to own a car, he is also being frustrated by harsh government policies using Yoruba Bank and other means to frustrate him despite he is producing long lasting jet batteries and helicopter breaking system for the Nigerian army, yet the government keep frustrating him because they feel he comes from the wrong region.
- What about Engr. Prof. Bath Nnaji
The former minister of power who really wanted to bring Nigerians out of darkness by creating over 10 000 KVA of electricity to prove he can comfortably end the lack of electricity supply to the homes of Nigerians, who also was the owner of Geometrics power plant,
but he was also frustrated as well and that dream died a natural death while Nigerians remained in darkness till this day.
Yet they keep on believing in a system that abhores and hates them with passion for being extra ordinary and for excelling in everything they put their hands to do.
Till when will enough be enough?
Till when will they come together and join these young generation to demand for their freedom knowing that they will flourish and propser more in their own country where their government will even help their dreams and innovations to manifest into fruition?
Till when will this spell fall off from their eyes?
Till when?
By Princewill Akubumma
Enough of all these nonsense paranoia, victim mentality and mental slavery. Businessmen of every tribe and race face challenges every now and then. Ibeto or Innoson or Onyeama arent the only Nigerian businessmen to face challenges. This endless "it is because he is Igbos" nonsensical persecution mentality is sickening and just has to stop.

so she needs all the love she can get now that’s she’s on everyone’s lips for an act she was probably addicted to including swallowing semen like a pro.

From my heart, I love her and I will like to hug her and tell her some comforting words.
So now that she's a stubborn child and has caused herself and family such pain, what will you do if you were her parent?... Disown her? Let her fall into depression without support and probably take her life?

Wiseandtrue:
Was landing cost not there when it was sold for N87huh

Shuooooooo

Why didn't Buhari talk about this landing cost during GEJ regime because he was strongly opposing it due to the untold hardship it will bring to the citizens then

So what has changedhuh What manner of hypocrisy is this huh
You talked about arguing with facts, I'm not arguing with you; I'm just giving you very simple information.

Nigeria imports almost every drop of petrol it consumes from abroad. At the time when the fixed pump price was N87, the total cost of getting the petrol to your stations was about N145 so the govt covered the additional cost of about N58 (i.e. subsidy) for you to be able to buy it for N87. When govt said they removed subsidy and fuel price jumped to N145, the govt simply stopped paying the additional N58 (a.k.a subsidy was stopped). But with the government still fixing the pump price at N145, things are bound to change if import cost increases.

Now due to increase in oil price, the total cost to get the petrol to your stations is now about N164. For you to be able to still pay N145, it means the govt is currently covering the additional ~N19 (a.k.a subsidy). I think this explanation is fairly easy to understand.

Then the continuity in paying the SAME SUBSIDY is a testament that Buhari is fantastically corrupt!!!

Argue with facts!!!
Subsidy was removed when landing cost was N145. But now the landing cost is N145+N19.37 (due to marginal increase in oil price) but you still pay the same N145 per litre; how?

Meanwhile the only enormous scam here is how Nigeria can be said to be consuming 55 million litres of petrol pre day.
