all4naija: I just quoted you and I am on about the one in bold.

Really I. Am sorry, if you do not understand third person communication I really can't help you with that. I am really sorry.

all4naija: She is famous. Her presence can mean a lot. It can not be denied in the world of fame and celebrity that she good pull of fashion and subsequence. That will put Nigeria on a spotlight that we are not all about BOKO HARAM, bad images and the country is safe for foreigners. If you know the power Kim commands around the world when it comes to fashion you wouldn't be mesmerizing like a child here.


There is no excuse on tax payment. You have no argument there. It is the same that can be said of any important individual. It is subjective to how you view it. Even the scientists you are so much concerned about are going to be in the same line of economic benefit. Indeed, KIM might even bring better returns. You know nothing about, that is very obvious from your comments.

Celebrities good pull of fashion? Kim = pull of fashion? Are you really serious with that thinking? As for taxes, I do not expect you to see the valued point raise because you do not live in an organised society where collective contribution is accounted for by those who lead the people.

The biggest Fashion shows in the world is held in London, Milan, and New York and in any have Kim been a sight of attraction and delight. Also, is she billed to attend the Lagos Ashton show.. No? So where's your valued point earned ?

all4naija: You see. You are assuming something about me without even knowing anything about me speaks a lot on your hate for the harmless lady called KIM.

Where in that post did I make reference to you in person? Do you even understand third person communication at all? Why would I hate her? She first hated herself, so do not blame me for her image. Remember when you were growing up your parents probably told you this; once a man caught thief in the public, no matter what he becomes at home, he will be seen and addressed a thief outside.

all4naija: You are so myopic to say that, I am sorry to say. Now, of what wrong is KIM presence in Nigeria?

I guess it is better I am myopic than being visionless and lacking in morality? Yes? I guess it is also better than not having a grasp of where your a heading as a country No ?

all4naija: No! You didn't read my previous comments. If you did you would have seen where I explain something about the positive impact her present would bring to Nigeria.

Itemise them please..... That she is being paid your taxes without giving anything in return is good business for you Huh ?

all4naija: Lol... You are just begging the question. Indeed, it is BRIT hip hop with connotations of been used at the Olympic and it not gangster. Jeez. The way you speak at first about hip hop I thought it's banned altogether.

You need to quit. There are q lot going on in your UK that is far worse than KIM presence in Nigeria. Should you be talking about racism now than what impact her presence in Nigeria would mean to the world?

Yes we fight racism here, but hey... I guess it's even worse what you subject yourselves to down there so do not even go there. That you can not name the positives of her presence says a lot. Her image is of what value to the country? Other than buzzing on twitter, for which many would be seeking the negatives of the country anyway, so what's the positives of her presence? Sun Oracle came to Lagos, ran a programme, and out of the blue a gem was found and the whole world was talking about him for months. That got the CEO of HP to visit Lagos, IT experts here where writing articles about the opportunities waiting to tap that abound in Nigeria youths. Had it been our government was focused, with vision and purpose, that would have been a catalyst to spur Nigeria into the map of IT global hubs... No...

all4naija: What a common excuse. You narrowly missed your point for not saying BOKO HARAM wares.

Well since you accept that all is welcomed without exemption, so I hope you would gladly welcome these as well because they are coming. You have shown them you stand for nothing, and I.s worth nothing, so be prepared to kiss their shoes as well..

uihebom: as i said earlier,broke people hate seeing people progress.just drop your sword and move out of UK for your own good.you are crucifying kim cos of a sex tape. but you were all smile when snoop came to Nigeria,talking about sex tape that means snoop should go and commit suicide. #100 richest men in the world no British .

Read my post, I never mentioned her video... I said she's a glorified international prostitute..simples. It is a FACT she made of herself so she's got to live with it. Every actions of a man has consequences, so watch every step you take in life 'cos they are irreversible and irredeemable

all4naija: This your comment actually proves you have not be reading mine. I would advise you to read my previous comments to better understand yourself on what to say again.

Sorry I read all of your post. You still avoiding my question. Tell me the positives of Kim's presence Or is this too hard for a science student to fathom?

all4naija: No! You are trying to make it look as if I agreed with you. Trending doesn't prevent anybody from not being part of moving the society forward. Encouraging Science by inviting famous scientists to the country and bringing celebrities are mutually acceptable in all ramifications. They have their various parts to place in our society. There is no doubt both have advantages and disadvantages.

Yet the UK hip hop is getting bigger and bigger and impact the world. It is clear the opening ceremonies of the Olympic 2012 showcase many things about the gangster you are playing down on.

The truth is that you have no argument here.

Sorry, for the Olympics, Lord Cole used them for marketing to get viewership. That's what you call brilliance, not the stupidity going on in Nigeria. I do not know where you are getting your information from, but no, UK hip hop is not getting any bigger, UK folks have their own and they enjoy it that way. Again that is why you see most them who want to sing those king of songs find their way very quickly to the US...

uihebom: i know i wont regret coming back,stay there and be deceiving your life.when i was in school we make things happen.Naija boys in london are broke arss niggers.including you.

I told you, your type are biting their finger right now... The truth is, if you were good enough.. You would have secured a job if not in the UK but somewhere in any of the developed world. Very few who truly schooled here go back hurriedly unless if they have business venture or parents business they would want to go manage back home. Majority stay hereto gain knowledge, and exposure before returning home. Certainly you do not all into any of these categories. Like I said if you really care, go get a job and stop sending multiple e-mails to innocent people in the UK.

ogugua88: [size=13pt]Meanwhile, Kim Kardashian is sleeping peacefully in Eko Hotel.

For someone who boasts of living in the financial capital of the world, you should realize the financial gains Eko Hotel and neighboring businesses will be making from her presence. You don't like her but you've parked yourself in this thread, responding to several comments that disagree with your personal views. The hypocrisy is too much.[/size]

Sorry, I saw the utter nonsense many were spewing in here and how sanity was being swept under the carpet of stu.pidity , with one of the simples making a brazen comment that someone whose whirl wind of the south riches would feed all of Nigeria's unemployed as if Kim's wealth can pay the salary of 10LGA in Kano for a year.

all4naija: You do know nothing about how the modern world works. You are forgetting the impact of her present at this point in time. Those who brought her to host a show know the reason why she is in Nigeria. If you don't agree with that you can have your show and bring in NASA engineer least they care.

That's why I said Nigeria as a country and indeed the vast majority of her people do not really know what she stands for. I have asked, tell me the positives of KIM' s presence, you and the other sis have come up with nothing....

chingyjant: You just make me laugh.Name all your are worth including your investments and i will give you that without a sweat.That we are all wanting to socialise and get info on NL does not make us to be in the same pedestrian.Just give me your contact and i will make sure my next summer holiday i will pay you a visit not minding the distance and see how much you have done for yourself.Mind you am not bragging but yourself stu.pidity and myopic thought of assuming everyone is dead as.s broke like you made me to say this.

First go get a job and be useful to yourself before I can take you serious..

all4naija: No! She didn't. Yet she is a celebrity. She is far better than most girls out there you think are worth your so called moral uprightness. I doubt you understand morality is not what she is here to talk about. She is not in Nigeria to educate anybody on morality ,dude.

Just give it up, man.

I hope when kingpins in Eastern Europe come to promote their wares you would also be saying the something....

all4naija: Oh, comeon! Please! You are only begging the question with this comment. How does KIM present welcoming in Nigeria at this point in time mean anything? I don't see anything bad about it than you taking it out of the ordinary. Nigeria is ruined not actually subjective to social life like the KIM. It is largely a thing of corruption and mentality of many Nigerians to development and getting organized.

Kim is preventing nobody from being what he or she wants to be. She is not doing anything wrong to the image of the country rather projecting the image at this terrorists incursion troubles in the Nigeria to the world that the country is safe.

Is this not what I am actually implying? If you do not see a trend between what our youths truly need today to put Nigeria where she should be in the world affairs, then I really can't help you. I gave an sample earlier, UK authorities spotted a trend of US mega artist bringing their gangster life style and songs to influence UK youth, the noticed how increasingly they were moving down in droves to do shows here, and how their image wasn't of any value to what the UK stands for, they sent Snoop packing, did the same to Jay-z and the word got out! You see, Nigeria does not know what she stands for so anything is acceptable to her and her people....

uihebom: hahaha we travel there for holidays,i cant stay permanently in london deceiving my life.every body in the world knows dat british are broke especially Nigerians there.

If you Nigeria was heaven, why would you come here for holiday? Why can't you go to calabar? Stop deceiving yourself. In as much as I love Nigeria, I am sorry, we are heading on the wrong path, and like eye saying goes.. Where there is no vision, the people perish..

ogugua88: [size=13pt]Meanwhile, Kim Kardashian is sleeping peacefully in Eko Hotel.

Sorry, if you do not know, those monies are not coming into Nigeria! It is Nigeria's money so there is no increase! Get that? Instead, she's coming to collect your taxes, and whether you realise it or not, that's exactly what is happening before your eyes..

all4naija: Oh! Just as you are doing here to make her look a bad image in other people eyes. Yet, she went there and was paid. Comeon! You are better than this.

look a rotten apples is just that! Shes made herself an image she wanted the world to see. You can't cut your cake and have it. Even in the most obsessed celeb country in Central Europe, France, when you move around much of that country, you really find out that Paris is really where the buzz starts and end. Else where especially in the core of France production power house.... The people are metal cutters, and is no wonder they are still top 10 in the world. Look at Italy, and see what has become of her.... Tells you why will should not welcome this mindset as a people..

all4naija: Appreciating KIM doesn't prevent anybody from being a good scientist, my friend. Don't take this to the extremist point of things. You are taking the whole topic out of the ordinary already. I am a young aspiring scientist yet I like KIM determination to life. I am not here to disclose my identity and what I become of it is my own cup of tea. Let accept her for what she is called to do in Nigeria.PERIOD!

I never said good scientist are anti-celebs or did I? Ready all of my post on this thread and show me where I said so. Clearly, the question I pose was, is this the kind of individual Nigeria should be welcoming at this time? Really is this the kind of individual? Like I said, most of you who cry Nigeria is this and Nigeria is that are more quilts than those you accuse of ruining the country. If your type see this as the way to go as a nation, then be prepared to continue to be at the mercy of the West...simples.

uihebom: i can bet my life dat you work in nandos.hahahahaha

I know you have finished your NYSC like you claim, but I am sorry to announce to you that you have just entered the long queue and I can see you with brown envelope at Maitama district in the next few months.

Even as a student here,I never work in nandos... The least I did I was a student peer leader and I was paid for teaching my fellow students ...so get real..

all4naija: She is famous. Her presence can mean a lot. It can not be denied in the world of fame and celebrity that she good pull of fashion and subsequence. That will put Nigeria on a spotlight that we are not all about BOKO HARAM, bad images and the country is safe for foreigners. If you know the power Kim commands around the world you when it comes to fashion you wouldn't be mesmerizing like a child here.

Is this the same KIM that was deemed as an object of immorality by Bahrain? I am sorry, I live in the worlds financial capital, and if anything, Kim does not even affect the price of stock nor of gold in the market..so she's worthless to much of the world... Simples.

chingyjant: You seem to be paranoid or are my missing something?UK Feeding me ke.You really need to be examined.Hope this is not a case of senile dementia?

Paranoid? Why should I ? For all I care, if I take the next flight and I land in Lagos, I will find your type asking me.. Oga anything for the boys ..

all4naija: Oh! Please!. Everybody can't be NASA engineer and everybody can be like you. Your view to life is very skewed in the sense that you are thinking of your very perception of morality is the best way for everybody forgetting that humans are free moral animals. That alone proves you need to get out of your little box and let people be who they want to be. And, you don't have any right to judge Kim Kardashian on moral ground. She's invited to Nigeria for a purpose and if you don't like that you can cry least I care.

Science is not what you think it. It has never changed man's destiny and it only changes the way we live. It is more like a tool to discover nature. Nature remains what it is and it unchangeable.Please, excuse us of your Science blahblahblah... We don't care about it in this thread. When we do we will go to Science thread to air our views on it.


It surprises me to see a mature man is bent on bring somebody down with all resources in a forum yet the same person is not a perfect being in any way. If you don't find anything interesting in celebs others do. Oh, excuse me.

I never said every body will become NASA engineer, did I? I only gave you an example on what impact having great minds in the field of science, engineering and technology can have on our teeming youths.

Why would you care about science when you have always lived a life of spoon to the mouth and hands to air Why will you? It is obvious that many of you live the life of keeping on with the jones' else you would ask yourself rightly, what is there to celebrate if someone hasn't had a positive impact on humanity

ogugua88: [size=13pt]No, she was sent packing because she spoke up about her husband having relations with his former-flame-turned-second-wife Camilla Parker-Bowles. You have it backwards. People love Duchess Kate because of her likeness to Princess Diana. The royal family is supposed to object. That's all they do. You pay them their millions and the Queen and elders make noise every now and then. They rightfully made noise considering that Princess Diana perished in a car crash while fleeing paparazzi in France.

You don't have to follow anything. Just realize that it's unfair to hold an old issue over someone's head. It shows that you're bitter. There are several positive's of Kim K's presence, as well as the presences of other's like Rick Ross, Keri Hilson, and others in Nigeria. It's certainly putting us on the map. Rather than worry about their morals, we should come up with ideas to make Nigeria more presentable to the world as the world is coming to us. That's best for politics though.[/size]

I am sure Harrod will be having a laugh after reading your post! I ask you, name the positives of Kim's presence in Nigeria! At least we saw what the twin tennis stars did during their visit which was well publicised and very much received by many as the right thing to do. Please name the positive.. I am waiting..

uihebom: dont make me give you my real name on Facebook.tho i finished school in the Uk, my friends and i are back to naija just concluded our service. stay there in the UK and be deceiving your self. and since im back i have absolutely no regret for my decision .

Just admit it, the new visas regime coupled with the fact that you weren't good enough to get a job sent you packing to Nigeria. I know your type.. I meet them whenever I am in Nigeria. They say all sorts after they were sent packing here.. I am sure you a regretting big time... Hence you wouldn't have made that comment.

chingyjant: With all these spending you listed above how does it culminate into the pocket of an average Briton?You cannot erase the fact that Britons are broke an can't afford the chase for celebs.Instead they prefare to seat in their cubicle of houses and think about how they can afford the next day meal.Can one give what he does not have?That is the clear case of the British people.

If Britons are broke and can still afford to feed you, then you are worst than miserable really! Even with the state of the economy, london's GDP is still higher than the whole of Nigeria combined..so know where you belong.

Like I said before, those that make things happen are never fazed by them..... That is the life they live here.. They make things happen so they see no reason to be crazy about it like you do..

all4naija: Okay moralist. We've heard you. Now, jump off into River Thames!

Like you have not been swept into rive oguta.... Get real..

OmoEziokwu: Even those who have never been to the UK hearsay are saying it is boring. Stop wasting your time trying to talk sense. It's draining especially when its directed to people like the majority you find here on this NigeriaLand platform. He/She who wants to gain understanding will gain it. He/She who doesn't, wont.

I concur with your submission. It bothers me really that we have so many in that country who are visionless, have no self worth, and do not really know who they are suppose to be! Imagine how inspired I was when during my university days we got a visited by some of NASA's best engineers who built some of the spacecraft, developed some really game changing technologies! I mean, my horizon was further broaden than it was. At that time, it was just he perfect moment for me to get people like that come inspire me to think of how I can shape the future. Nigeria youths today are yearning for great minds to inspire and mentor them. Imagine if we spend these thousand of dollars bringing in the best minds in medical field, engineering to visit our universities for just 5 years, you will be amazed what our youths will be doing with their talents.

uihebom: gosh who cares about UK self,its too boring to my liking.

I am sure if I give you a ticket and a UK visas you would not remember to say good morning to your parents before you jump unto the flight..

ogugua88: [size=13pt]Omo_Tier1, you're saying the UK doesn't worship celebrities and also royalty? Whose wedding did the globe witness in April of 2011?

Your arguments are not making any sense. It's okay to not favor someone, but don't use distorted truths to bolster your argument. I'm sure you've had your own instances as a youth, where you did some things you may not have been proud of and even regret. However, I'm also sure you got over them and became a changed and matured man. Kim Kardashian has moved on from her own instance and has grown in her own ways as well. Free her.[/size]

Again, I repeat... We do not worship celebs. The royalties are no celebs... One of the reasons people felt Diana was sent packing was because of her celeb status which the royal felt was becoming an embarrassment. Need I remind you that just two days ago, the royal objected to Kate's privacy being invaded by a celeb magazine in Italy who was going to publish the photos they took when she was holidaying on a beach.

Also, to figure out, how many tabloids dedicated to celebs feature on UK's top selling tabloids? The Sun known widely for her celeb glorifying status have learned the hard lessons that the UK is full of men and women who cuts metals....

I am sorry, I never followed the part you referred to I your post.

ogugua88: [size=13pt]Be honest with yourself. People want Kim Kardashian around. People watch her tv show religiously and then criticize her afterwards. She doesn't have to be moral or valuable in the eyes of Nigerian youths. Do not make it seem like Nigerian youths are looking for a moral savior either. Just like with any other society, Nigerians too are celeb-crazed. Wizkid, Davido, Tonto Dikeh and others gloss our headlines because people eat it up. They would much rather spend hours discussing Tonto Dikeh's music video than read a novel by Chimamanda Adichie. A thread on tribes or celebrities can reach 10 pages within hours, meanwhile it takes tangible threads (that have not been derailed) days to garner interest. That's simply how society is. Rather than complain about one woman hosting a show in Eko Hotel, do something about the larger picture.

She hasn't reduced me nor the rest of womanhood. Kim Kardashian made that tape and became who she is because of her own determination. She hasn't even reduced herself. That tape doesn't speak for Kim Kardashian. That's the truth. If it did, then promoters and event organizers, including those in the all-so-religious-and-moral Nigeria, would not be willing to pay her thousands of dollars to fly across the globe to make one appearance.[/size]

I hope you would also glorify someone who runs a prostitution ring in Eastern Europe, then use the proceed to invest and become mega rich ...my question to you is this... Is she the kind of individuals the country needs to really inspire her youth? Nigerians are not celeb crazy, it is because they do not have a true sense of who they are, where they are going and the vision of who they want to become, hence they copy anything that comes their way. Nigerians have always appreciated people who have impacted the lives of many but we never worship them and make them object of our discussion over dinner table... This generation have no vision so they easily perish without thoughts...
