Politics / Re: Write A Letter To President Obasanjo On The Following Issues by phoneman(m): 9:30pm On May 13, 2006
Guys I appreciate your input!!!
I combed the Internet all day and cannot find an address for the President. I need your help guys. I will be calling the Nigerian Embassy in Atlanta first thing monday morning, maybye they can help.

Seun you are right it is talking I didnt mean to sound so judgemental.
All my life I have complained about Nigeria and done nothing this is a chance to do something. My goal is not to criticize anyone especially not the cabinet members, but to draw the presidents attentions to the number of concerned citizens, that are passionate about Nigeria and desperately want change. My letter will be polite and concise. I will let him know my concerns about the fear Nigerians have for law enforcement and how oppresive they have become.

This is the year I will stop talking and start doing.

Politics / Write A Letter To President Obasanjo On The Following Issues by phoneman(m): 1:50pm On May 13, 2006
Critical Analogy 101: White Man Vs Black Man <<offtopic>>

White Man: Selfless, Visionary, Applied Intelligence, Patriotic, Accountable leadership,Humble, Considerate, Explorative,Urge to amass wealth to reinvest in community and create jobs, Pioneers of missionary work. Helpers of their own kind and blacks. How do hide information from a white man? Answer: you can't!!!

Black Man: Selfish, Short sighted, lacking intelligence, sellouts, Inability to lead without huge financial gain, lacking consideration, Urge to amass wealth to tout and oppress e.g( Big car with big wheels, bouncy cars, jewelry, and strangely women with large posteriors,condo in cancun, account in the caymans) pioneers of devil worship (juju), god complex.How do you hide information from a black man? Answer: Put it in a book an publish millions of copies!!!

Nigeria and a lot of African countries need the governance of the white man. Re - colonization is needed to recoup the decades of poisonous leadership and oppression.

People I am tired.


Stop talking about nonsense on this forum and mobilize, you are the future of this great Nation of Nigeria, Do not be like our starch craving leaders, all sleepy in the head. If we all write letters to the chicken farmer(obansojo) and state the most pertinent issues facing this country we might get some where, How many of you know you can write the president and even former presidents that are getting ready to run again(i.e babangida, ceo of corruption), oh im sorry to busy talking about when you lost your virginity and who is the prettiest nigerian actor. Stop complaining and write a letter to the president words carry a powerful impact in the hearts of every man. A majority of what I see in this forum are aimless words.

Your assignment is simple, get a pen a piece of paper and write.

Now I will mention some issues to get you started pick one and write baba iyabo (obansanjo) tell him what you want and you just might get it, stop whining and complaining. Every time I hear a Nigerain complain I feel like tearing my hair out.

I picked the first issue in the list below, my letter will be going out on 6/6/06. If we all postmark a letter on this day addressed to the president, with how passsionately we right on this forum we just might provoke change!!!! Think about it. This might be you single and only opportunity in your life!!! to do something selfless for your country. Write from your heart tell him what you feel. I have to do some intel on the best address to reach the president I will need your help guys we need the most direct path possible.

Do not be offended by the date we should mobilize, but we will be marked as slaves to forever live under oppression if we do not take up this challenge it is the simplest most basic thing you can do for this country. I suggest we post our letter on this thread, and a change of title might be appropriate preferably, My letter to the president.

Here are some critical issues. Pick one and focus on some of the subcategories.

Police (security): Pay increase, benefits,(very important). Core of the nation the police enforce the law of the land. Lawlessness is demonic. That is why it is first on my list.

Disease and Poverty: Since when did the 5th largest oil producing country in the world address the issue of poverty. Answer Never!!! abject poverty is a horrible thing.

Healthcare: Infrastructure, Equipment. Medical personnel pay, life insurance. (Please treat me if I get shot)

Power: Solar options, Kainji dam has not stopped flowing why has power.

General Infrastructure: roads, school buildings. why on earth our we sill using brick when wood is a viable cheaper option(correct me if am wrong)

Obansojo gave you communication (Good we need more)

Airport/Travel: why do I have to smell urine when I walk through a baggage carousel. Why is the white man so doubtful of me retuning home.

Fraud corruption: I have received many letters from so called fraudulent 419ers. Well this your chance to turn over a new leaf and write a letter for you countrys future and children.

Prison System: I am a sinner, feed me, clothe me, don't abuse me, educate me. We can help in building nigerias infrastructure its free labour!!

Taxation: Needs to be implemented at all levels (long term).

Fuel Scarcity: Alternative fuels (ethanol), rebuild refineries, encourage foreign investors.

The list is endless you are a creative bunch let your minds run.

People you get my drift. Write and change the direction Nigeria is heading, 6/6/06 is the momentus day your letter must be postmarked. Let our leaders receive due notice that enough is enough.

Youll be surprised how simple actions can cause great change. The most complex problems in the world were resolved through a letter( think about, treatys, peace agreements, Telegraphy: don't fire that nuke!!)

I urge you to write it is the simplest most basic thing you can do for Nigeria. I am not asking you for money nor am I related to the president. I am asking you to mobilize.

I will be posting my letter for all to read I suggest we all do this.

If you are offended by the Analogy, GOOD! that means I got your attention now stop being offended and act now. Besides these are isolated cases.

Send this to your friends send it to everyone and get them in on this. I will write seven letters if I have to. If you are literate in yorba translate this and hand it out to people on the street like flyers. the same goes for igbo and hausa and all the other millions of ethnic group. This has to be a united effort. Nigeria is beautiful and blessed country.If the whiteman could evict us and take the scraps of what is left they would pounce on the opportunity.

Please write!!! If you think your letter couldnt possibly affect change, you have defeatist mindset and I urge you to reconsider.

Now I do not doubt that some of you have already done this, I applaud you bravery and commitment but now it is time to make it a jont and united effort.

Let 6/6/06 be the day you unleash your passion, frustration and love for your country.
If you can apply for visa lottery you definetly can do this!!!

Let us be a generation of action, not words! May God our Father help us in Jesus Christ's eternal Name

Nairaland / General / Nairaland Must Be Divided At Once! by phoneman(m): 5:22am On Apr 14, 2006
Seun I think it is high time this site got divided into it respective geographical parts. Nairalanders in UK and Nigeria are always asleep when US nairalanders are up, I feel isolated from my countrymen enough as it is. I think it would be a good Idea to delegate a moderator in each country to manage the forums for NairalandUk, NairalandUS etc I think it would streamline topics and create more focused discussuions plus it promotes intra continental relations. Then the main forum for Nigerians in nigeria will be NairalandNG. Following this strategy will create and unprejudice hierarchy and unite nigerian in their respective locations. Typical example I thought snazzy was in the US only to find out she is in edo state far from miami fl( bad example ignore that).
Now I know its your forum but I think you should let Nairlanders vote!! I dont really see it as a division but an opportunity to unite Nigerians abroad then we can visit other forums and learn about issues in another geographical area cos they do exist.

Im from ogun state as well seun, I have much love for what you have done here but its time to seek international growth opportunity. I hope you will see this vision/idea as been viable, not a critque of your efforts.
Travel / Re: Green Card Denied Due To Birth Certificate. by phoneman(m): 4:52am On Apr 14, 2006
Was this DV lottery app? Family/employment based greencard , what? You can always appeal a decision by the INS there is a formal appeal process that can be filed it is fairly straight foward tell him not to fret, go to INS.gov for more info or better get an attorney. If all his documentation is legit he shouldnt have a problem its a simple case of incomplete documentation.
Travel / UK Or US: Your Preference And Why? by phoneman(m): 4:45am On Apr 14, 2006
It has come to my attention that a lot of nigrns in the UK would love to be in the US. I bring this topic up because I was thinking of relocating to the UK because there is a greater nigerian concentration (I'm fibbing I know there are more nigerian women ohh wink). I go there once in a while besides the annoying posh accent its all good. Oh before i forget I heard UK taxes are outrageous. US is typically between 28-35%. Speak to me.

Business / Re: Digital Scanning Bureau Start Up by phoneman(m): 4:34am On Apr 14, 2006
I actually thought about this as a possible revenue source, secure documentation storage services it will prevent forgery. fraudulent duplication and safeguard from fire, flood etc. It could be an exclusive proprietary service, You would just have to obtain a high speed scanner that is capable of writing to pdf making it searchable can be done with a database app. Go for it dude!! I am stuck trading stocks and hopelessly hooked however I will definetly use your services once you implement.

Business / Re: Fraud: Visa Gives Nigeria Clean Bill by phoneman(m): 1:05am On Feb 12, 2006

Travel / Re: Nigerians Abroad Must Return Home by phoneman(m): 12:59am On Feb 12, 2006
My fellow nigerians, I think everybody is right in their own special way. Some have a greater tolerance than others its just the way of the world. I think our leadership needs to start serving its people. Nigerians at home be as dedicated as you want to..till leadership believes in serving the people nothing will change we can play the blame game all day. Nigerian leadership is oppressive and tyrannical it has no tact nor clout. It is clumsy, greedy and careless. Till will have a leader that is truly selfless oppression, corruption and smog will reign supreme.

Pls lets not forget the amount of money sent home from abroad runs into millions of dollars. which helps the economy thats why tourism is big buisness so lets not frown on nigerians abroad they hell support the emaciated nigerian economy.

Hang in there.

peace
Travel / Re: Expats Around The World What Do You Like And Dislike About Your New Country? by phoneman(m): 12:21am On Feb 12, 2006
being the only black man in my dept makes me feel I have to work harder to represent. I hate being surrounded by white men all the timealthough I feel it is better than facing the hardship some nigerians are going through.
