PoliticsRe: Pictures Of Oshodi Market Demolition by OBVIOUS(m): 12:02am On Jan 07, 2009
In fact villages are  MUCH cleaner than Oshodi market. Oshodi market is a reflection of the growing disorganization, the MADNESS, Nigeria calls government.

People will either create another OSHODI market else where or turn to armed robbery, I'm sure u'd like that better. Wouldn't you ?

diasporian:
I remember in the year 2000, Olusegun Obasanjo and Stella Obasanjo of blessed memory came to worship at Canaan Land - Otta - we all cried, Nigeria is getting better, I don't know, eight years after that, I don't know if that can still be said.
They probably came to ask for forgiveness in advance for all the havoc that they will cause.  All of this rubbish of having thieving politicians in Nigerian mega corporation churches is just a fallacy and used to FOOL the poor masses who will proudly stay silent while their leaders rub them blind.

Sai-Saraki is correct in stating the Olusola Saraki is a muslim as I'm related to the wife and she's christian. On the other hand, youngies makes a very important point in stating that they are politicians who practise chrislam. grin

Of course waiting is not old fashioned but what exactly is one waiting for.

richo2:
are we talkin about waiting to get married, waiting to get a boy/girl friend or waiting to have sex? undecided
Good point and good question Richo

I want to WAIT to get married but not wait to have sex.  Sex is not a big deal as people place an emphasis on.  Virgin this, Virgin that. What if  one marries his/her husband/wife as virgins and then divorce occurs ?  (the woman is no longer a virgin and the man isn't) whats next ? DEATH!!! L O L.

I don't want to rush in, rush out of marriage. I want to wait to marry at least the close to the ideal person as no one is perfect.

If all educated Nigerians come back home, I'm not sure that Nigeria would be a berra place.

Nigerians and unnecessary competition,  in fact, i'm certain that hired killers will prosper if all educated Nigerians come back home.

[quote author=game_rod link=topic=209700.msg3247327#msg3247327 date=1229729407]There is this thinking amongst Nigerians living abroad, that Nigeria is so bad that they could have been nothing if they havent travelled abroad.

Is this a true saying? Is it true that only children of the rich and well connected make it in Nigeria?

Based on the above, is it then advisable - in this year 2008 - 2009 for people to still sell their belongings for the sake of travelling abroad? Is it true that you can only make it abroad?[/quote]There is this thinking amongst Nigerians living abroad, that Nigeria is so bad that they could have been nothing if they havent travelled abroad.

You're right that some people have this mentality. But there is also some piece of mind that comes with living abroad and as someone else stated, But then again the notion of abroad is relative, Do you mean Afghanistan, London, USA, China, India, Pakistan huh Regardless of where abroad is, at least there is stable water, light, and other amenities.


Is this a true saying? Is it true that only children of the rich and well connected make it in Nigeria?

Regarding this, I think that many Nigerian people's kids (RICH AND POOR) ALL GO ABROAD to STUDY/GET A GOOD EDUCATION. Hence, making ALL equal.

Studying abroad too is not just a right to the rich and well-connected anymore. This might also influence the reason why poor and middle class people would want thier children to go abroad.

In Nigeria, it is the educated and well connected that make it. You don't even have to be the child of the rich. There are POOR people's children who got some GOOD education abroad, connected with some white, and chinese people and are doing more than well in Nigeria.


Based on the above, is it then advisable - in this year 2008 - 2009 for people to still sell their belongings for the sake of travelling abroad? Is it true that you can only make it abroad?

I think Nigeria is changing. In fact, there are many people CHOOSING to move back to Nigeria. Well, people may choose to sell thier belonging for the sake of travelling abroad and my question is WHERE IS ABROAD? Afghanistan ? China? India? Pakistan ? or RACIST SPAIN ?


But you do make some good points but ITS NOT APPLICABLE TO ALL NIGERIANS.

Compared to other demonic devils Nigeria has called president (Abacha, Babangida, and co), Obasanjo made some positive changes. He selected very brilliant people to his cabinet and improved the GDP.


But aside from this, I'll torture him and his entire family until he returns ALL OF THE MONEY THAT HE HAS STOLEN BACK.
