Wow, you must just landed in the US in the past couple of years. Your generalization is pathetic and sad.
I don't have the zeal or energy to educate you but I can tell you one thing, your views will change the longer you live in the US. When you get discriminated against over and over again, you will change your outlook on Black American. I was more conservative than all these new conservative back in the late 80s and early 90s. My experiences over time changed some of my views on Black America.

How is your experience. Can you narrate some?

IpobAntidote:
Stop spreading fake news. Blacks are dying more for various reasons - lack of good health care , lack of health insurance, existing conditions like diabetes, high blood pressure and others. Whites are treated better by health care workers than blacks.
I work with Doctors, nurses and other clinicians, I know the true status of health care in the US.
If a doctor or nurse had to make a decision on who gets ventilator or better care between a black and white patient, that's no brainier, the white patient is going to get it for couple of reasons- race and money.
In most cases the white patient will have medical insurance hence the hospital will treat him better knowing they will get paid compared to a black patient where they will have to file for Medicaid to recoup some of their cost and in some cases, they will not get paid a dime.

I understand that Blacks are facing intense discrimination with the Whites in America, but obesity, heart diseases, and other weight related health conditions are for those who have uncontrolled eating habits. Let black own up for their problems for a second, corona virus does not have a vaccine yet, so it depends on the ability of your immune system to develop a resistance against the disease. No matter how you look at it, blacks in America still have better access to health care service than their counterparts in Africa, so why Africans are not dying from corona virus? Prior to the outbreak, I watched some videos on Twitter where some black and white students were partying hard in the beach in Florida despite warning by authority to stay indoors. Americans are known for their social lives and partying, this is the reason the disease is more widespread there than anywhere

Auladimeji:
But the OSU were claiming him

I knew the guy is a Yoruba man not ipob right from time, an Igbo man will not speak English without you hearing their apopropo Igbo accent in it, mind you Igbo won't dare speak to Chinese as this man did, but they're good at antagonizing governments in Nigeria.

Any way, let's leave the Man's tribe out of the issue coz he is representing Nigeria as a whole, Chine does not differentiate between any tribes in Nigeria.

KingAzubuike:
I heard he was later brutalised and beaten black and blue.. don't know how true.

He was videoed beaten by the Chinese black and blue . Watch video below.

The Nigerian diplomat who rescued our brothers was assaulted by the chinese
It is time we retaliate the same way we did South Africans. China must get the memo that you don't treat our people like trash.#ChinaMustExplain

These Chinese gat no joy

Develop Africa they will not listen, they will be running to other countries seeking greener pasture after destroying their country.

RuudVanNisteroy:
This is why we need to fix our home. We will never be respected if we don't get things right back home. They cannot try this with the Americans,British,Saudi Arabian or Japanese citizens.

I said this on my Twitter handle, the only friend we have now is economic interest, nothing like one friend is being poor and another one is rich. China treats Africans like animals because of the state of their economy back home. Racism can only be totally defeated by developing Africa. No shortcut, that is the only true way, no amount of campaigns on social media can stop racism if Africa remains underdeveloped compared to the rest of the world.

I do 150 pushups everyday, If I missed a session due to circumstance beyond my control, which rarely happens though, I will do 300 pushups the following day. This has been going on for six years to be precise. I will encourage Nigerians to find one fitness regime fitted for their body, it is like a meal that you can't miss once it bocomes a part and parcel of you. And it clears your mind and allows you to be more focused, you will never slide into depression.

All those pot belly Nigerian politicians should do this everyday, laws should be evoked in which if you have a pot belly you can lose your job or appointment as a politician, though your body mass and weight should be considered in judging people to apply that law to. I would consider the law if I were a president of Nigeria today. Pot belly is a natural sign of laziness. I used to have pot belly even as a teenager, but since I hit the gym, every fat has turned into muscle.

And they will call this hustle, Nigerians need to change their orientation about using hustling to cover up for their corruption, bribery, price cheating, manipulative business tactics and the likes, none of them are different from this woman

Nigerians are still not getting sense with this virus, anything that happens in this country only makes people worse rather than better. Now that China is chasing people on the streets, I don't see where sane people will run to, as every other country is in lockdown right now.

These Chinese were suffering from inferiority complex with the West until recently when the world's attention is now turning to them, they now feel as the world's superpower, reasons for this behavior coming from them. I remember when a Chinese man would force my hands into friendship back in the days in Lagos. Forget it, the ego of becoming the world's superpower for the first time in their existence is affecting the Chinese. In the past, Asians were often seen as subhumans, they have stunted physical structure compared to the rest and lacking the required social skills, so being a superpower, they think it is time to react to those years of rejection they have faced.

Whereas USA is treating her corona virus patients under tents, and you are telling me Russia and China are not the current world leaders.

What is appealing about this guy's pictures that they use to scam women?

These Chinese, everything about them is as if they are following one strict order from above, look at them standing based on their heights, this is what you call discipline, something Nigerians are grossly lacking.

backnbeta:
She googled baby pictures, saw the tiny hands and the lovely nails without the face, she liked the nails and used the picture... understandable... unless she captioned it: "A picture of my baby's hand"

The time she spent to Google and upload the picture, she could have better used it to take the picture of her real new born and upload it. Or is she afraid that people would find out the hospital she delivered in isn't luxurious enough?

Nigerian women should try to be real for a second!

Savagery

Africans are too fake, they don't even know their identity, maybe it is because of gross inferiority complex culled from generations of slavery. You are celebrating your new born but you pulled up a picture of another new born, maybe she hasn't found the best background to use, as they normally do, to take a perfect selfie for her new born.

kiyosaki1:
We are watching. This set of leaders we have now are set to bring into disrepute the only profession we had that is being even respected all over the world . The chinese can not be compare to the set of medical doctors we have in nigeria in term of achievement
This set of Hausa /fulani's are set out to destroy everything because of their complexity issue ,thinking everything that looks white is superior to black man .

I tend to agree with this, Nigerian doctors are some of the best in the world, they are only lacking the required infrastructures to function very well. Only in Nigeria you will see a doctor did a successful surgery with lantern or lamp.

Every patient of corona virus, whether positive or negative, should be kept in a different zone away from others until this is all over.

If you see anyone wey don catch covid before, run away in kilometers until his/her status can be proven that he or she no longer carries the virus after few months. That virus is no joke.

"172 deaths" and we already have deaths littering the streets, by the time their deaths would reach 10,000+ like Italy, Spain, or USA, there would be no free way to pass for people on the streets? This country really needs some organizing.

How many times will this same sermon be preached?

This one na direct transmission, na original virus she go get, this makes me remember T-virus where the infected bite or eat other people.

Commendable, I will recommend the recycling of tires to produce ground covers or carpet in public places, I saw this in a German television DW, very creative!

Of all the countries affected by corona virus that are in lockdown all over the world, it is only in Nigeria we have heard cases like this where army killed someone to enforce the lockdown, even when the news broke that the Russian president Putin has unleashed hundreds of lions on the streets to force people to stay home, it was later debunked as a mere rumour. But Nigeria has already lost lives due to military brutality in the face of disease outbreak. Some people are just bottled up with hate in them in this country that they are waiting for unsuspecting victims to unleash it on. What happened to locking up the person caught violating the lockdown, and then fine him or her if found guilty? You cannot ask people to stay back in their houses and not provide something for them as an alternative source of livelihood.

Nigerian army just think they are slave masters, that they can decide who live and who die. I heard some of them threatening to rape women in retaliation for one of them killed.

How many cases of corona virus are in other states compared to Lagos? If the virus is contained in Lagos then it can be contained in other places, Lagos is like the New York of Nigeria, same reason why USA government moved all resources to fight the outbreak in New York.

virginboy1:
.

The enemies of this woman plenty ooo...This is beyond holding a mini party during this lockdown...

Well, I hope all those ranting up and down, both offline and online will rest now.

What is wrong with you lots that you always tag everything as enemy or hate, someone broke the law and she wasn't supposed to pay for her punishment? The only enemy I see here is she who put the lives of others in danger.

I would have even preferred the government to fine her a lump sum since she has enough money to throw party around.

This is so apt, thanks for sharing!

Can you explain how?

When China was hit last month, US donated 18 tons of masks, PPEs and respiratory equipment to them and pledged $100 million to help China fight the virus.

Ignorant bunch are here exposing their lack of knowledge about some donations changing direction?

My neighbor borrow me sugar yesterday to soak garri, because I could not go out due to the lock down....your interpretation? My neighbor is now the king of the compound and if they had not borrowed sugar, I would have died of hunger....that is how you sound.

Those 18 tons donations by USA never materialized according to Chinese, it was pledged by the USA state department but China received nothing.

Pelecius:
The ones US are actually claiming are those produced by MMM (3M) which is an American company, but have plants in many countries including China.

Trump want them to produce and sell for US alone and it is the main root of the problem.

So it's not a "Chinese made" in the real sense of it

It is not Chinese made? Go and check the workers in that so called American company, you will see that they are at least 95% Chinese, that is the real difference, the technical or factory skills of Chinese workers are above the rest.
