Napata77: Dunce, is insecurity necessarily Boko Haram?
The US issued a travel advisory warning in its typical hypocritical fashion.
America is a place where 70,000 people are shot dead each year by guns.
That is equivalent to 200 Boko Haram groups operating all at once.
But I'm sure you will jump at the opportunity to go there.
Just YESTERDAY a man went on rampage there, shooting 10 people dead, for no reason.
It's a very lawless, dangerous country that should be issuing travel warnings against ITSELF, not against other countries.
The incident happened A YEAR AGO. A lot has changed since then militarily. MUMU.
You are a stupid fool with no brain.
Murtala Muhammed airport can barely contain the influx of foreigners flocking to Nigeria on business.
Nigeria is Africa's biggest economy for a reason.
Sit there talking illiterate rubbish.

Napata77: Shut up and go research the news instead of lying.
Just last week the USA pledged 10 billion dollars investment in Nigeria's renewable energy power program, and is set to help build solar power plants and other such facilities across the country. Would they be doing that if Boko Haram was still an issue?
We're telling you the army has dealt harshly with Boko Haram and they now operate mostly in Niger, Mali, Cameroun etc, and you're here arguing. How do you know the situation in Nigeria sitting in Ghana? Idiot. Abeg gerrout of this place. Wetin you dey do here sef? didn’t the USA order its diplomats to leave Nigeria due to insecurity? didn’t boko haram bomb the abuja kaduna train last year? nigeria has BIG insecurity issues and investors are scared. Why don’t you guys just acknowledge it instead of pretending insecurity is not real |

Luzebox: ...Ghana is not making any move...the president only know how to talk and borrow ...nothing else...a country with 30 million people and gold...still in massive debt..has one city that has a little developed side...the only thing going for Ghana is peace...no major conflict... bokoharam will sweep the nation in 10 days with their poor military...and even with the peace they are not achieving much .. foreigners own most of their economy...they are literally begging black Americans to come home to make some money from dem... Nigeria is not where it is suppose to be...but becoming like Ghana is going backwards ...and if you can't see development happening in Nigeria...you are probably living in a village chai ghana is attracting world wide tourism and billion dolllar companies and you are saying that “ghana is begging black americans”… nigeria truly is a lost cause so when dubai attracts people or qatar is that the same as begging people? ANYWAY the number one thing a country can have is safety. So if Ghana has it and nigeria does.. we have to analyze. why has nigeria been dealing with boko haram since 2002 with no end in sight |

Misterone: God forbid. Nigeria will never be like Ghana. Nigeria is 10 times better than Ghana if you must know. The problem you guys are having is instead of looking at the moves Ghana is making and saying, how can we as Nigeria do this since we believe we can do it better Or saying Nigeria is actually doing X and Y. You're just say "Nigeria is a bigger country so it , must be better in all things". This is what I get for arguing w fools. |

Napata77: SHUT UP. The Singaporean military is a strategic western ally receiving heavy military aid from the US, and can equally beat Portugal, Holland, South Africa, Mexico and many other nations.
See world military strength by nation: Nigeria ranks 36th while Ghana ranks 109th. https://www.globalfirepower.com/countries-listing.php
As for GHANA, that is a country with the world's worst performing currency this year, and an inflation rate of 60% compared to Nigeria's 21%, and a country that for the last month has been going cap-in-hand to the IMF for a mere 3 billion dollars to bail out her tiny, mismanaged economy.
The last time Nigeria approached the IMF for a bailout loan was in the mid 1980s.
Nigeria has largely defeated Boko Haram, and its economy is 25 times the size of Ghana's.
Ghana is a little baby compared to Nigeria. Outside Accra there is virtually nothing. Kumasi is a glorified village, and the country has only one or two modern airports compared to Nigeria's more than 20.
Nigeria accounts for 75% of the entire West AfrIcan GDP, meaning the other 14 countries, including Ghana, account for the remaining 25%.
PLEASE, KNOW YOUR MATES. NIGERIA IS NOT ON YOUR LEVEL. Did you just say that Nigeria has defeated Boko Haram? Wasn't the Abuja-Kaduna Trained bombed last year? Boko Haram has teamed up w Ansaru which is under Al-Qaeda, but you are saying that they are almost defeated! Ghana is currently going under inflation, but they have shown through their multiple moves that they have a master plan. What has Nigeria shown to you that lets you know they have a Master Plan?BTW Nigeria has only FIVE international airports while Ghana has 2. But Nigerias population is more than double its size! It should have at least 12 international airports if it was as forward thinking as Ghana. |

Politics › Re: Why Can't Nigeria Be Like Ghana? by paxx(op): 8:00pm On Jan 22, 2023 |
flokii: Yeah right..
Ghana still depends on Nigeria's gas and opened borders to survive.
Forget all the paper economics and hype.. Ghanians still have a lot to learn from Nigeria.
All those companies and businesses running to Ghana are targeting Nigeria's population of over 200 million people to sell their goods and services. Just one policy of government will finish them all should Nigeria decide to place ban on imports (tho. difficult cos of ECOWAS treaty). We know the game that is playing, just than once a big brother, always a big brother.
Nigeria remains the giant of Africa and big brother to Ghana and other smaller countries. Nigeria will never ban imports due to ECOWAS so whats ur point? nigeria is too arrogant, while they are sleeping. other countries are surpassing them. when nigeria looks up, it will be like Somalia. tons of potential but a complete waste |
Politics › Re: Why Can't Nigeria Be Like Ghana? by paxx(op): 7:24pm On Jan 22, 2023 |
flokii: Ok . you sha get the point. Ghana is way smaller than Nigeria and that's what matters. Ghana is making real moves to become the premier nation of West Africa through things like the Year of Return and attracting global billion dollar companies. While Nigeria is STILL dealing with Boko Haram since 2002 and ISWAP. Just like how Singapore a mere city can defeat Nigeria in a war, Ghana has already surpassed Nigeria currently. |
Politics › Re: Why Can't Nigeria Be Like Ghana? by paxx(op): 7:19pm On Jan 22, 2023 |
flokii: Ghana is not up to a state in Nigeria (with 36 states + FCT).. Lagos with the smallest land mass is bigger than Ghana.
The solution to Nigeria's insecurity problem is simple.. State and/or regional policing with restructuring. Waiting for someone at the centre to be giving orders and all, can't and won't solve the security challenges in a big country like Nigeria. This is not sixties for crying out loud, we need to wake up to realities.
Any governor crying insecurity is a goat and a thief cos they all have security votes (in billions) to secure their states but they are all keeping the money in their accounts. Federal can't police all at once.. States and Local govt. too should wake up and be proactive. Lagos is 1,171 km², while Ghana is 238,540 km². |

I see some people say they dont tust some ethnic groups with power, particularly that of President.
If you dont trust any of the 200 ethnic groups in Nigeria with the seat of Presidency, you really should not be in the same country with them
Why would want to be in the same country with people you dont trust? because they hate them but want their lands… otherwise why do you want to be in a country with people u hate? |

As a nigerian... I hate this country and wish it was like Ghana. Ghana is much safer...
Ghana is getting international acclaim... celebrities from all over the world are traveling there .... tourists from around the globe are coming to Accra for the Year of the Return. But Nigeria? we are still dealing with boko haram/iSWAP... why else do you think that Twitter put their headquarters for West Africa in Accra instead of Lagos?
Nigeria is not a safe country for investors and we are too tribalistic for that to change.
Why do you think most of our musicians travel to Ghana and UK instead of Nigeria to make music?
Ghana has several cities that are becoming a big hit across the world. (Kumasi for example). While Nigeria only has Lagos.....
and instead of People to vote for someone young to change Nigeria for the better.... They want to elect a 90 year old man or a man who wants to sell nigeria for 10 billion |

The former Lagos State governor said that Nigerians would have to be labouring under a terrible delusion if they thought that Peter Obi would do a better job for the country than he did in Anambra State. The All Progressives Congress presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu, has said the Labour Party’s presidential flag bearer, Peter Obi, is a salesman selling fake merchandise. The former Lagos State governor said that Nigerians would have to be labouring under a terrible delusion if they thought that Peter Obi would do a better job for the country than he did in Anambra State. Tinubu explained that Igbos were migrating to Lagos because Peter Obi, failed as governor to develop Anambra State, adding that there was nothing to be proud of, after Obi left Anambra State. Tinubu made this known on Saturday at a presidential rally in Ondo State on Saturday, claiming that Obi left Anambra “crying”, while he moved to Lagos. He said; “You will have to be labouring under a terrible delusion if you think he will do a better job for this nation than he did for Anambra State. “What is there to be proud of after Obi left? Obi has nothing to be proud of. Instead Obi moved, left Anambra crying. He moved to Lagos,” Tinubu said at a presidential rally in Ondo on Saturday. “I’m indeed very sorry. Buyers beware. A salesman selling fake merchandise. Beware of people like Obi. “The truth of the difference between my leadership and that of Mr Obi lies in one observation. Although Lagos is crowded because of the space left when they migrate to Lagos from Anambra. “It is a wicked parent like Obi given the opportunity to feed the children but hoards money on his hands when the children starve and go to bed hungry. “That is Obi’s wickedness. It is true that the heartless governor will hoard money when there are hungry school children; roads and clinics are in disrepair.” https://saharareporters.com/2023/01/07/south-easterners-overcrowding-lagos-because-former-governor-peter-obi-refused-develop |

Your mother has too much influence over your love life, it'll cause problems in future when you eventually get married to her anointed choice
Don't bother yourself with any girl here if you're moving abroad, they'll take their lousy naija character along with them and cause you heart ache. The risk is a bit less if you've been married for years already. There are far better options when you travel
Be sure to set up a trust when you travel after making some money but BEFORE marriage. The trust should have your lawyer and mother as signatories and it'll handle all your expenses including boxers and toothpick
In case of a divorce, you own nothing that can be taken away from you, the trust owns everything 
Momsi should allow you breathe and make your choice when it comes to love bro, only involve her when absolutely necessary thank you very much for the advice and lack of insults |

Asides a stiff pecker & "my mommy says", what else do you bring to the table? The only thing she hasn’t even asked you for, is what you now want to use to define your relationship because "your mommy told you!" Typical black man mentality once he thinks he has power over the next person. You see that green card, minus you plus you that girl will definitely get it one day! You know why, the only thing in this world can stop a determined Nigerian from getting exactly what they want is death, nothing else!  Bruh dont be stupid. You're acting as if I'm hating on her.

Politics › Obasanjo Seeking Third Term Through Obi, Says PDP Campaign Council by paxx(op): 1:38pm On Jan 03, 2023 |
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential campaign council has tackled former President Olusegun Obasanjo over his endorsement of Peter Obi, presidential candidate of Labour Party (LP).
On Sunday, Obasanjo, in a letter to Nigerians, declared his support for Obi ahead of the 2023 general election.
He advised Nigerians not to be “confused nor gullible” about who to vote for because Obi has what it takes to put Nigeria on the right path to progress.
Reacting in a statement, Daniel Bwala, spokesperson of the PDP presidential campaign council, said Obasanjo is “one man who believes his role also includes choosing and imposing presidents per time as if we run a monarchical system of
“He believes he is the only former leader who knows what is right for Nigeria, and who has the celestial powers to predict the future of Nigeria and its leadership. He believes it is only his administration that has done well and hence the authority to choose the next leader or president. His way of choosing the next president is either to blackmail the incumbent or denigrate candidates in favour of his choices,” the statement reads.
“A cursory look at his letter released on this day, the 1st day of January 2023, one can’t help but draw a deduction of a man who believes so much in himself. His entire letter is riddled with me, my and I. Even when he made references to candidates, he assumed he is the source of their relevance and notoriety. First of all, history is replete with his bad decisions which time would not permit us to layout in this article, but suffice to say that his records and official acts were and still are antithetical to democratic ideals.
“The democracy we practice recognizes the participation of people in government and electioneering processes. He has the constitutional right to choose whoever he likes and support the candidacy of the person, but the right he doesn’t have is one that threatens, intimidates or harasses citizens to support any candidate as the only means to avert danger, secession or disintegration.
“One fact is clear, Nigerians would decide, and this they would do, not on the basis of a letter by a man seeking a third term by proxy, but by their own assessment of who amongst the candidates presents the case they believe warrant their votes. The letter is not new, and the content is not surprising, but it seems his legacy betrays his assertion in the letter. Baba OBJ Nigeria has moved on, please allow our democracy to grow and respect the will and wishes of the Nigerian people.”
The opposition party added that Nigerians won’t vote based on Obasanjo’s endorsement but for the candidate that can tackle the challenges confronting the country. https://www.thecable.ng/obasanjo-seeking-third-term-through-obi-says-pdp-campaign-council
