ghettodreamz: Says who? Billyonaire's Theory right? This is HILARIOUS

Dont mind that Ngbeke call billionaira.Na apuroka boy wey dey form rich person.The boy broke pass monkey,na one of the mugus wey dey support Jonathan for NL.Help me ask am who dey suffer:

A ) The person wey no get electricity for 1 week ,wey dey breathe generator fumes, wey generator noise don block im ears and wey no get access to better medical care.

or

B) The person wey get 24 hrs electricy ,breathing unpolluted FRESH AIR,emergency services at im beck & call,world class medical care at im finger tips.

My brother khaki no be leather,Southy level pass Naija level a billion times.No need to dey lie to ourselves.Go south African embassy for lagos go see queue no be for mouth.

Nigeria good na him boys dey pay close to N1 million just to get Visa to get out ?

phantom: its easy to get angry wneh you see other countries that dont have what you have make giant strides honestly but truth be told we cant just sit down and throw figures around.we have had and still have devilishly corrupt leaders but IMHO if jesus comes down now and heads this country we will not see much change in 4 years you may not believe it.WHY? because our problem as a country has gone way beyond just our terrible leaders but also the followers.
In fact the MAIN PROBLEM WE HAVE is our present structure!!!nigeria has no foundation!no sense of nationhood amongst its citizens.this faulty structure wouldnt be the issue it is today if WE HAD CONTINOUSLY HAD GOOD LEADERS from inception.if economic progression and sustainability had been the watch word from day 1,tribalism and religion would have been diluted.these things wouldnt be an issue today but what do we have now? an existing faulty structure that has been made weaker by bad leaders.

[b]I can't believe i am saying this but i will just say it: MAY GOD BLESS YOU FOR THIS HONEST POST.

You see we are on the same page except i am so tired i used harsh words to express my frustration.What you have said is true and same as what i have been trying to say.

The reality is this : Where do we go from here

Do we keep sitting and feeling defeated or do we start mobilizing in every capacity to educate our fellow Nigerians?

Nigeria has a large community on facebook ,twitter and other social mediums .Why are are we not doing like the Egyptians and Libyans and organizing online rallies for starters to educate people.We can't just sit back and hope for the best.

I for one feel that Nigerian are too obsessed with the mentality of : "he go better" , "God's time is best" or "God will help us". I read my bible very well and last i checked GOD specifically stated that he will only help those who help themselves.We are a nation of 170 million why are we so scared of less than 100,000 thieves in Government.

In South Africa when the Government does nonsense ,the people go to the streets and start rioting.They don't tolerate nonsense ,that is why Government is doing everything to please the people.Now SA is just 50 million with probably the best equipped military in Africa ,yet the citizen are not scared of their government.

We have to make our Government be scared of the people,we have to show them that we have the power, not them.The only way we can do is by being united with one voice ,No Igbo ,No Yoruba ,No Hausa ,just Nigerians aka wazobians. We must start from somewhere and we must be serious if we want serious results.Enough of talking and fighting kung fu on Nairaland. Let us unite with one voice and criticize where necessary without fear,excuses,favor or tribal sentiment. [/b]

dasparrow: Okay, makes sense. The situation in Nigeria is frustrating. I cannot even deny that. I have not seen light in my area for almost 1 week. I am going to my mom's place soon so that I can at least enjoy a little electricity. I thought of raising the family in Nigeria but I am afraid that I cannot. After service year, I am out of here before I loose my mind.

Gheng: Ewu! Omo ale jati jati

Same to you ,NBGEKE

RedBenson: Com here @playmode, who send u? Ur wife vex u last nite abi na marine spirit dey control u dis morning? Wch kind hard abuse be that? U 4get say na here u take ur 1st succour? Take ur time o.

Na my wife say make you vote Jonathan?? My wife dey spa dey get massage while you no get light to watch Tv. Besides i don't believe in all these marine spirit nonsense. Na d kind mentality wey dey kill us for Nigeria be dat.For other countries scientist dey invent cure for diseases thing but for Nigeria we still dey chase witches and marine spirits.Very soon Jonathan go blame mami water spirit for lack of electricity. Talk about a society lost in superstitious beliefs

SIRCONFIDENCE: you made good points in a very bad manner. calling Nigerians senseless peoples is very outrageous !

snoopy: And to think it was you ranting here not so long ago about the xenophobia y'all suffer in your south african base, you don't think this attitude is exactly why Nigeria is as it is, where as long as it doesn't affect you, you are not bothered and everyone shifting blames and not looking for how they themselves can be the proponents of that change. smh....as someone said wait till they shoot u dead over a nokia cell phone or at best deport you over yellow fever crap, you village is the best place you'ld end up, ode!

[b]If i was not bothered i won't be commenting here.Read and comprehend my comment and understand where i am coming from.Are you saying all what i have said is a Lie? If i am lying then you are right if what i said so far is true then i am right.As for xenophobia it is a minor issue and as for crime,i am here 13 years and have never once been robbed.It is your right to defer with my opinion but the truth is the truth.I can't waste my time trying to change a people who aggressively reject change.I tried it once and i ate humble pie.The problem with Nigeria is not the leaders it is the people who have corruption embedded in their DNA.Just look at how they are praising Jonathan on NL even though he has done ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to move Nigeria forward.Our power problem is a very minor issue i can fix with one decision but the average Nigeria will not elect people like me into power.They do not want to fix the electricity because Aso rock never lacks electricity.The politicians have big generators in their homes so they are not bothered.If they were affected by the electricity problem they would have fixed it a long time ago.They do not care and will never care.Instead they will elect alhajis, baba alayes ,Igwes and their tribes men e.t.c

Nigeria's is the only country in the world where the electorate are more concerned about the tribe and religion of the candidates as opposed to what they can offer the people.The day we get rid of Yoruba man must rule ,Igbo man must rule and Hausa man must rule mentality,that is the day we will elect Good leaders.Until then we are shooting ourselves in the foot.Look at the likes of that baboon known as Asari dokubo threatening war and Buhari also threatening violence Is that an example of sane people or people who have the best interest of the country at heart.We need to get rid of tribal politics and we will never do so by speaking grammar.Nigerians are hard of hearing ,they are like goats,they do not like to take correction or do the right thing.So they need hard words that may hopefully jolt them back to reality and help them make reasonable decisions.[/b]

phantom: really meant what i said bout your spouse,looks like she was so desperate she didnt mind marrying a child..... . effing slave!

LOL..Loser,you can't debate with men your size so you pick on women.Typical Ngbeke Negro.I am sure you are one of those buffoons who woo women by saying "Hello my sister" or "Hello babbee" .What a classless mofo

phantom: if you re married ,your wife must have very very poor taste in men....

tspun: u don mad bfor. Y calling nigerians senseless pple. Have you forgotten ur parent still live here. .Idiot....

[b]Did i tell you my parents still live in Naija FYI my father is dead and my mother as well as siblings stay in the same country as me.None of them is eager to go back to your yeye Nigeria.I repeat ,Nigerians are a senseless people.A nation that intentionally elect a corrupt person whose wife was arrested for trying to smuggle stolen wealth out of the country. Tell me what do you call a people who collect bribe to vote for the wrong candidate? Are they sensible or senseless

It is a simple question that deserves a honest answer.2 + 2 = 4 ,it will never equal 5.You can't cure a headache with alcohol. As long as you lot continue to do the same thing ,Nigeria will never change. It will remain a cesspit and an eyesore to the human race.$150 billion dollars yearly in Oil revenue yet no electricity.Kenya that makes less than 20% of that is fully electrified,same as egypt , Ghana and the rest.Yet you monkeys call yourself giants ?? Giants ko ,dwarf ni.

Nigerians don't need soft words as they are intellectually incapable of processing such.They are animals who need hard words so that they can wake from the Zombie state they are in and do what is right for the future generation.Nigerian celebrities give birth overseas,why is that?They even take pictures and flaunt the fact that they flew all the way from Nigeria to give birth in the US or UK. If you people were sensible ,why don't you have capable Hospitals to handle child deliveries? Even your senseless president and his wife fly to the Uk and Germany to get treatment for simple flu and you say you people are not senseless In all the years of Jonathan being President ,it did not occur to him to set aside money and build a world class Hospital in both Lagos and Abuja.Instead he hires an Israeli company to spy on Nigerians and even attempted to steal $21 million from the contract.Oh yes you people are very sensible.The truth is bitter ,just swallow the pill and learn.[/b]

blackchukky: Wetin remain for you, na to carry knife go butcher person for road, make camera record you and finally you declared wanted by security agencies *mumu*

Na me say make you vote FRESH AIR? Oh boy change that igbo wey you dey smoke.Enjoy your FRESH AIR coolele.Na una take una hand do unaself so don't complain.As for me ,enjoyment yanfu yanfu na im i dey!

awodman: ``Niger Government appreciates what the president has
done. For 15 years, the project has been on the drawing
board.

Can you see the quote above..15 years on the drawing board ..Thank you GEJ for making the project come to fruition..when this power plant and MAMBILLA are completed..it would be a great thang..

Henry120: Nice media opps by the south africans, this is one area where our army is lagging behind. In nigeria the military, not until recently( navy and to some extent airforce) do not release photographs. Most of the pics posted by nigerians are either random photographs or troops personal photos. The south africans, egyptians, algerians and even the Kenyans understand the value of good photo opps. However in nigeria the army is still stuck in the past.


That been said, the last 2 photos I pasted, show major flaws in south african military "retreating" training.

When troops retreat the way the south africans have in the first photo, they leave themselves very vulnerable to enemy attack. Only one soldier is providing covering fire for seven(7) retreating troops.

* As we can all see clearly the training is still on.


This is how we do it in nigeria, all seven(7) soldiers would been on crouching position, facing back towards enemy position, the last soldier in the line stands up and sprints( in a crouched position) to the first soldier in line, while the other six provide cover fire. The sixth soldier, now the seventh in line performs the same routine as the seventh soldier who is now the first soldier.

This process repeats itself again and again until they get to their chopper awaiting to ferry them away. What it means is that at all times during the retreat, the soldier retreating has 6 rifles providing cover fire for him, as he retreats.


Another example say the troops are 24 in number, they divide themselves in 6 groups of 4 members. So when a group of four(4) soldiers retreating, they get 20 others, providing cover fire.

It is smarter, safer and less risky to retreat the nigerian way, than what these SANDF troops are doing. With just 1 cover fire.


For the second photo, in picking or dropping troops. NAF usually takes 2 choppers e.g NAF puma and armed augusta luh as escort. While troops slide down the ropes of the NAF puma, the NAF augusta job is to provide cover fire for the NAF puma while troops are dropped or picked. You'd see NAF augusta luh(armed) going in circles round NAF puma, full 360 degrees covering fire.


Just my observations in the 2 photos, observations were SANDF can learn a couple of things from the nigerian military.

Henry120: In terms of kitting and firearms in nigeria, the navy special forces and the SSS storm troopers are on another planet when compared to the army or police.

The army especially still has a long way to go, but for regular troops and special forces. The army should please do away with those AK-47's and better kit her personnel.

patriot4: I guess it is not all about the number of tanks, there are other equipments to consider and there are other factors. By the way Israel had much less tanks than the combination of arab armies it defeated in 6 days.
The equipments giving Under the name of the countries is not exhaustive, it is just there to show that these countries have reason to be where they are.
