If only you know that there are thousands of beggers(all benin/Edo boys) in italy struggling for whom should occupy one traffic or supermarket entrance. Europe is not what you all think of. No employment opportunities here

Niger Republic is more like northern nigeria. Who ever embraces islam and sharia should have an open hand to receive anything that comes out of it

Next topic please

Every Muslim should kindly help the world by killing himself. We don't need Islam again. We need peace

We all are aware of a sad incident that happened in Paris. Social media like Facebook have showed lots of concern by demanding that users should switch to their new temporal profile pictures. Why have they not show concern ever since Nigeria and many middle east countries were been attacked?

Are they on Mediterranean Sea? Because I guess that boat is one of those balloon boats which migrants uses to enter europe

this man can't stop amazing me

baba go slow, hahahahahaha. your movie is coming out soon, this one go reach season 20

wiating fior the day there will be a good town planing in anambra state. for now, the state and local Government is as clueless as the dauradinho

the worst aspect of it is that our useless state and local Government doesn't know what is called "town planing" every one builds houses where they wish to, some places meant for drainage has been occupied by houses yet the foolish ASUDEB is busy enjoying the money collected for house owners

give me three raps of those money and take the rest. i am not greedy

fools will always claim to be what they are not, sick africans

funny things nowadays

they are now producing medicine to help africans, at the first place they told us in the bible that sickness and diseases were meant for egyptians. that at the mention of the name of jesus that every sickness will be healed. blind will see, deaf will speak and the dumb will hear, lame will walk, and so on and so fort. they made sure that they milked our resources, they enriched their contries with african resources. they turned our sense of reasoning to believe that every sickness is from their satan and that all we need to do is to keep praying to their god for healing while they went back and were producing solutions for their own problem. today africa is in worst state. even when an african man picks up a phone and couldn't understand while such a small technology can perform such wonders, he will attribute it to idol or even he will say that it was those idols been taken from african by the white slave masters. until europeans stop taking medicine and also stop building rehabilitation centers for disabled ones and focus more on their Jesus for solution. then i will believe them. but for now, Africans need a brain not the one the slave masters and missionaries left us with

imagine some of Nigerians predicting doomed fro america and wishing the anger and course of God on them. is that not foolishness? are we the only people that is aware that america signed gay marriage. why should our foolishness be exceptional?

in as much as we have claimed to be the most holy people in the world. i want to plead with my fellow Nigerians to please, control our tongues atimes. we are not the only people existing in the world. the more you talk too much, the more you expose your foolishness.
let the americans be with what ever they choose for themselves and let us try and combat our on national issues here.

They express sadness and pity for what is supposedly God's Own Country. They predict America's inevitable decline. But the emotion most potent in their words is fear. The kind you might expect from news of an impending tsunami. Many Nigerians appear terrified that, having finally won the victory on home soil, America will now set its sights on imposing similar legislature in countries like Nigeria. "We must resist this wave," I have heard people say.

Rumors of America's plan of action have already started making the rounds. Over the past few days, a number of articles in local newspapers have revealed what some Nigerians believe to be the secret agenda behind President Obama's invitation to Nigeria's new president, Muhammadu Buhari. Allegedly, the meeting, scheduled to take place in the White House on July 20, is aimed at persuading President Buhari to repeal Nigeria's infamous Same Sex Prohibition Law signed by the previous Goodluck Jonathan administration. "Beware of Obama's Invitation," read a headline in one of Nigeria's dailies.

A June 2015 survey conducted by Nigeria's NOI Polls (which works in collaboration with Gallup) shows that 90% of Nigerians believe their country would be a better place without homosexuals. In addition, 81% do not agree that gay people should have the same rights as other Nigerians. Only 30% of Nigerians were shown to believe that gay people deserved equal access to public services such as healthcare, housing and education.

Despite these hair-raising data, I would be surprised if the anti-gay bill were the only reason why President Obama has extended this warm invitation to Nigeria's president, what with issues like Boko Haram currently siphoning global attention. But if indeed he has the welfare of gay Nigerians in mind, President Obama must proceed with caution.

Careful conduct
At the October 2011 Commonwealth Heads of Government meeting in Perth, Australia, British Prime Minister David Cameron told African leaders that if they resisted homosexuality in their countries, they risked losing aid money from the United Kingdom. Those words registered quite highly on the scale of African indignation. From Ghana to Zimbabwe to Uganda, commentators, columnists and government officials encouraged Cameron to zoom off to hell with his aid.

Nigeria, the giant of Africa, went beyond mere sound and fury. Within weeks, the country's Senate swept aside other pressing national concerns and called for a 14-year prison sentence for anyone convicted of homosexuality -- an issue that had previously not featured on the national agenda. In December 2013, then president Jonathan signed the anti-gay bill, which illegalized public displays of affection between gay couples, and banned organizations that promote gay rights. NOI Polls showed that 92% of Nigerians were at the time in favor of the new law.

Cameron's bid to advance gay rights clearly backfired. And not just because homophobic sentiments are especially intense in Africa, where same-sex relationships are illegal in the vast majority of the countries on the continent. The Prime Minister's controlling and imperialistic choice of words inspired the need to reassure any doubters of their countries' absolute autonomy from Britain. Choosing the exact opposite of what pressured views stipulate is sometimes a way to re-establish your freedom to conduct your own affairs.

If the topic of gay rights arises in his conversation with President Buhari, President Obama must remember that he is the helmsman of America, not of Nigeria. He must realize that "We must not allow these 'white people' tell us what to do" is increasingly becoming a valid reason for Africans to ignore both unconstructive and beneficial counsel on various issues.

The legalization of gay marriage in America has led Nigerians to build up a fresh readiness to resist anything homosexual. The anti-gay swords have been unsheathed. How carefully President Obama and other activists in America conduct themselves when advocating on behalf of the gay people in countries like Nigeria will go a long way in either ameliorating or worsening the welfare of those they seek to help.
