Wow! This is a thorough revelation! shocked shocked Is it this horrible?

Uneducated Nigerians are a scourge in any society.
Its really bad, it started when private universities started springing up in benin, nigerian students who couldnt get admissions here where trooping down there. Soon it became a place where if you have money and need admission just come. Before you knew it yahoo boys everywhere coz all you need is money and youre in school. Some years down the line the economy around the Schools Don be like lekki, lounge everywhere, boutiques, sharwama spots, fine dining locations, night clubs started booming. With night clubs came the classy pretty student hookup babes. Pls note benin had prostitues before oh but they dont have the beauty, class and swag that these our genz babes Carry. And they were not expensive 😄. Anyway the point is as much as we are fixated on the need to fix our country, we need to bring back moral values amongst our youths. We have really derailed.

They know. But we need to tell our people there to behave themselves. Benin republic is not their country. That country have every right to chase any bad elements out or throw them in prison.
Benin republic need Nigeria , more than Nigeria need them.....or else their country will be like Sudan and Somalia is less than 2 weeks
Lies. They're just playing a tit for tat game ni. Our government said their university certificate was worth nothing, which had discouraged Nigerians from assessing a more cheaper education in Benin without strike. They banned importation of rice from Benin for years. Which reasonable neighbour does that when the fed government understood the meaning of comparative advantage?

While the ban was in force, they didn't even do anything locally to empower youths and Local farmers to upgrade their rice farming to a large scale one rather, they went to Abuja and built up fake rice pyramid to make their gullible supporters think their wicked policy was working. During the closed border, Benin Republic invested more in tourism and used same to boost their economy. I visit there always. You'd see foreigners on the streets of Benin as if you're in Europe. That's a country that's serious. During the period, their currency obertook ours by a wide margin, what used to be a useless currency in africa.

There was no allegation the Nigerian government didn't level against Benin which included fuel smuggling. Has that caused our fuel price to come down, now that border had been closed? Had that impacted our economy positively? I leave you to answer that. Benin also goes to same place where we import fuel from, to buy. It's an open market

Let me correct you on your last paragraph...Benin can do much more, without us if they could survive years of border closure. What exactly do we export to them? Nothing!

They are the reasons why Benin citizens are saying Nigerians should leave because they have carried their bad activities from their zone over there.

Since Tinubu took over as president, they have flooded Abuja and are the ones perpetrating one-chance and kidnapping here in Abuja.
Shut up your dirty stinking mouth.I was there last month and if you see the way your people from East behave there,you wont pray to have anything to with them.
You guys constitute nuisance there .You will see up to 7 grown up men staying in one room .

Thi3fnubu is, indeed, one useless drug baron. However, this has nothing to do with him. Some Nigerians, wherever they go, try to outsmart locals, overtake by any means necessary, and locals do not have to tolerate that cr@p at all.

And you guys run to SW whenever IPODs, ESN and others decide to attack SE.

Nigerians hardly support their country and or even try to defend their sovereign. And we/they expect few greedy leaders to make it a heavenly place for all.

When issues come up, instead to treat it justly, Nigerians from SW will attack SE and SE will attack SW all on Social Media. The Northerners hardly do this sh*t
At least south west is still Nigeria and nobody is asking us to leave Nigeria which we have been begging for years.
Re: Nigerians Allegedly Face Xenophobia In Benin Republic by UrgentNeeds(m): 11:07am On Jun 29, 2024
Nigerians Should Be Ashamed of Themselves.

Instead of Them To Create Wealth For Themselves By Tackling Insecurity And Epileptic Power Supply in Nigeria, They Are Busy Being Victims To Bad Government And Xenephobic Attacks in Other African Countries.
Re: Nigerians Allegedly Face Xenophobia In Benin Republic by jaxxy(m): 11:07am On Jun 29, 2024
Do they kniq how many Benin republic and Togo people are in Nigeria?

If a Nigerian commits a crime in their county let it be addressed by the authorities accordingly to their laws and diplomatic relationships.

Blacks should stop being myopic and self centered. This is why we are backward.

Apologise to the northerners first. When they wanted to seceed in 1953, your ancestor Azikwe out of selfishness refused to allow them to go by leading NCNC against it. It led to Kano riot. Go and read about it.

When Awolowo insisted that a secession clause should be in our constitution, your grandfather Azikwe opposed it and won.


We are fulfilling the wish of your great grand fathers. Wake Azikwe up to apologies for wasting several years that the North would have been independent assuming he allowed them to seceed.

If Nigerians decided to close trades with Benin and withdraw its electricity today Benin Republic won't last a week.

Who is fighting you in indonesia, Kenya, south africa, India, Dubai and any other country that is unfortunate to accommodate you? I guess it is still yoruba too.

I didn't offer to help you fight your UGM and I never invited you to come.help me fight your imaginary Fulani herdsmen. Na you dey say you wanted to help me fight them. It is a sign of psychiatric illness. I said I don't need your help, you insist that I am fighting you. How? Did I come to your Agulu village to drag your potopoto land with you?

We only came to live in peace vote for an election and be voted for nothing more nothing less.

As for UGM if it's a problem like most of you want it to be, non of us will be traveling down home towards the Xmas period.

Every sector of government in Nigeria is also in Benin Republic, just like they have in all countries of the world and they need service providers too. Nigerians dominate their IT industry. If there was nothing there, would they have gone there to work? Benin republic doesn't have much population, not even up to that of alimosho but the rice in their silos will feed the entire Nigeria for 3 years back to back. Amazingly they are not noise makers like us. Nigeria ni problem gaan but we are just downplaying it. O maa to ye everyone. Asiko ko tii to ni. O ku dię.

Have you been to Parakou, up north? What of Calavi? Cotonou isn't the only city in Benin republic. Have you seen their silos field at parakou? What of the vegetables farms in same location? If all what you're looking for in Benin are skyscrapers, they don't have it. Each time I visit, our European partners, who always get there earlier, they lodge us in the hotel du lak, if you truly know Benin. From that place as soon as you cross the sea is like when you're in Europe, up to Akpakpa.

They may not have oil but believe me, they're not hungry and their economy is growing steadily. When last did you visit and how much did you exchange naira to cefa? That alone will make you sad , especially if you've been visiting since 2015 cos of the huge difference. I love Nigeria more than anyone can think. If I could leave all the feferities in America and invested home, trust me I love being Nigerian more than many may have thought . We're not progressing in the right pace. It's Like were stagnant and only those who go outside would reason with me.

Leadership is our problem and once we get this right . Those in the diaspora wouldn't need to be begged to come back. Investors will come uninvited cos they know we have all it takes to develop and thrive. Mention that thing that we lack except Leadership? God had blessed us with everything a country would need to become an earthly paradise , but Leadership. You heard that a leader of a western country travelled on a commercial plane recently cos his jet had a fault. It won't happen in Nigeria. They'd rather fly a chartered jet instead. A country that needs help is living large on top gbese, with their lawmakers earning the fattest salary in the world.

Now, they're thinking of buying new jets, one for president and one for his vice in a country where people commit suicide over lack every day. Your condition can always get better if all is well with us.
