Ah, Awolowo!. Even 23 years after his passing, he continues to divide the nation. And there, ladies and gentlemen, lied his greatness.

"I want them to go back and remove that word". Arrogant stupidity. Where does she think she is, in her kitchen? We THE PEOPLE will determine how and what we want to be called. As a matter of fact, lets adopt NAIJA as Nigeria's new name. Afterall, she, and her thieving colleagues (alive and dead) have caused irreparable damage to NIGERIA.


NAIJA FOREVER. You don't like it, resign or drop dead!

Damn, she "looks exotic and COUTURE"! Do you know what you are talking about? Exotic, maybe. But, how could anyone look couture?

The Nobel Prizes are not given out by the United Nations. They are awarded by a private body that has its own requirements of potential winners. Stop whinning already!

Why not name the damn country after the tribalist, arrogant, thieving, "genius". The true story will eventually be told that he, for a long time prevented the Yoruba from participating in mainstream national politics.Why? Simply because he was not to lead such national effort. By the way, does anyone know another Awolowo even from his village of Ikenne. I am a Yoruba person, if anyone was wondering.

She get craw-craw for nyansh.

Damn right!

The traits of madness could be found in:
-My family-in-law
-My 'enemies'
-My pastor/Mallam
-Witching War Warriors
-Redeem/Born Again

-Paying tithes in the face of hunger, especially when you have children
-IBB
-OBJ
-Nzeribe
-Alao-Akala
-Afenifere
-Babatope/Jakande/Tinubu
-Arewa Consulative whatever/Ciroma
-Ndigbo leadership
-Ministers
-Commissioners
-LGC chairmen and members
-Nigerians studying in Thailand
-Nigerian certificate forgers working in Europe and the US
-Con artists 'leading' Nigeria
-The Pope
-Sarkozy

Who did I forget?

Thiting, (giving 10% of whatever you have to the Church) eventhough you don't know where the next meal will come from. Worse, if you have children to feed.

F-E-L-A, shior. I leave you with your hero.

If they were meant for the Palestinians, well then, hand them over to the owners. Shikenah!.

I love her hair. It is what makes the Koreans love black women .

If she was unmarried because she devoted her life to the Lord (whatever that means), are we to assume she was (is) a virgin in the image of Mary of the miraculous pregnancy? And at what point did his "holiness" Kumuyi come in? At night vigils, night prayers for Nigeria? Triple sin anyone? Aww, With people like these praying for Nigeria, it is  no wonder the country is so messed up.

Its either this man is stupid or Nigerians are in a state of come. He probably meant one million naira. Whatever it is, where does he get the money from?

Talk! Talk!! TALK!!!
God! God!! GOD!!!
Did you mean "Have you killed for Nigeria Today?". I mean as in killing a member of the various "Houses" and the Senate?, or the governors, comissioners, chairmen of government corporations? One a day? One at a time? All at once? FKUC them all! Kill them all! STAND UP Nigeria! WAKE UP!!!!! The RACE is looking up to you!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and GOD is about to give up on you.!

Ask President JONATHAN.

A woman who does not know that women could get pregnant at 42 should not have a boyfriend talk less a husband. What a shame!

Let me get this right, are we now to believe that BOKO HARRAM is a wing of the various Arewa organizations? If this is so, then certainly they deserve an equal opportunity to shake hands with the President. What have they been smoking, these Dan Iskas?.

Please be careful how you talk about Nigerians in the Diaspora. Remember Western Union? After your politician "leaders" have stolen all your money who wire foreign currency to you? Do not make us angry, I warn you.

Forget gold, the only things any man can dig from the poor-ass naija females are STDs.

My father's house of worship
Has become a den of thieves,
Stealing in the name of the Lord.

President talking like primary school kid. God save Naija.

Stealing in the name of the Lord,

The name says it all: BANG COCK

I rented a group of " 'Cry Warriors' " (as in Prayer Warriors) and have them cry for Nigeria all day.

And so they went from what should have been a conversation between polite and civilized people to hurling insults and slander at each other. Happy Birthday, Nigeria. Nigerians, carry on jor.

Can someone please grant this man's wish already?!

Pardon me. May I just make two humble suggestions.

1. How about declaring the day a 'A national Day of Prayers'? Though not a believer myself, it occurs to me that I read somewhere that Nigerians are the most religious on earth. So lets have a day when we could get our religion on. Prayer and fasting will not only touch the 'gods', they will also do us well by cleansing our psyche as well as our bowels. Please note, that since this has a spiritual and physiological goal, no thithes or any other donations should be made in the various venues of worship. Keep your money, you need it for survival. My only fear is that this will be sabotaged by politicians of all persuations, ugliness, and immorality. You can bet they will show up in their convoy of the most expensive IMPORTED cars, bought with the peolpes money. They and their hangers-on will show up, clad in the biggest agbada, baba-riga, and the various symbols of ethnic identity. They just have to have a celebraion! It is the opportunity for them to 'feed' the people with the crumbs from their (the leaders) well stocked pantries and dregs from their wine cellars.

2. Why not just shut Nigeria down for that day? Yes, shut it down as in a self imposed curfew that will last 24 hours. Spend the time with your family, friends and neighbors. Please do not celebrate as it is customary with you to celebrate even those who steal your property, and thank the God of Israel for those who make Nigerians', Africans', and the black race's lives so unlivable. Do not thank God for having blessed those, ask for God's wrath on them! Whatever God you worship must be quite unfair and inconsiderate that those thieves are still roaming free. Not even a million 'shaloms', nor a billion 'aslaa m alaiwhatever' will stop them. Considering what they have done, are still doing, and will certainly continue to do, despite all your prayers, your worship, your faithfullness; Nigerians probably need to reconsider their relationship with God. As the Yorubas see it, a relationship based on faith is reciprocal : I worship you, make sacrifices to you, and obey your injunctions; the least you can do is help me, 'Orisa bo l'e gbemi, fimi sile bose b'ami'. If our leaders are not ready to stop 'leading' us to ruination, the least we can do is protest. But do we? Oh no! As far as we are concerned their worldly 'success' is 'just' a blessing from God, and who are we to go against 'Yahweh'. We follow them to give thanks for keeping to themselves what was meant for the commonwealth. We follow them to Mecca, Medina, Jerusalem, River Jordan, Lourdes, Rome etc., etc,. God must have a great sense of humor. This is what comes to my mind when I see them, piously reading the Bible by the River Jordan, or hitting their forehead on the ground in Mecca. Meanwhile nothing works: no electricity, no water, the roads are not motorable, the kids dont go to school; teachers, professors, doctors are not paid, many die in an attempt to collect their pension, and all our leaders want to do is celebrate 50 years of independence? Forgive me if I say there should be no celebtration of failure even if it is a failure of one day, talk less of 50 years. Yes, SHUT NIGERIA DOWN! Nigerians should meet and discuss how to bring profound change in all aspects of life, private and public, or if you want, how to get rid of these vampires that pretend to lead us.

Just wondering.

Alleluiah!, Assalam Alaikum!, SHALOM!, Jehovah-Jire!, Yahweh!, Allah!, L'agbara Jeh-suh!, Barka de Sallah!, , prayers, prayers, prayers, Prayer warriors instead of warriors for equitable distribution of resources. "Na God put them there", meanwhile they are stealing us blind. Blah, Blah, blah,

@manny4life: the point is there in the reaction. If you don't get it, too bad. Sorry, I can't help you. I believe or, at least I hope, the poster does get it. You talk about what you think, I talk about what I know. We are operating from different perspectives: yours is a realm of imagination, mine is the reality. Thank you, sir.

Moronic thread.
@poster: you either do not get it or you are being mischievous.
Some facts:
1. The goals, membership (or, at least its leadership from year to year) of the Pyrates Confraternity is on file with the UI (Mother Ship) authorities just like any other organization on campus. I do not know anything about other campuses or other fraternities that grew out of a desire to start one's own fraternity having been kicked out of the Pyrates Confraternity for conducts unbecoming of a Sea Dog. These include use of illicit drug, disloyalty as in not upholding the creed of the group, betrayal of friendship, 'mutiny', public embarrassment, etc., etc. or simply wanting to be Cap'n of a deck.
2. Mr. 'Study in America', the membership of the Pyrates Confraternity is made up of the brightest minds you could find on the UI campus, and perhaps in Nigeria. The members have always graduated and gone out seeking change and betterment in whatever calling they choose to make their own. They have always excelled in all their endeavors, and have contributed immensely to whatever little accomplishments have been recorded by the Nigerian nation. Names will not be mentioned because you see, we do not seek public accolade.

You need some education, the type that could not be obtained unless you remove your 'reformist' goggles.

THIS IS NOT AN OFFICIAL REACTION.
