Where should I start

If you were poor, and herdsmen in their stock in trade come and massacre your family will you love your country?

Or when your brother, in his farm, over power and kill a herdsman, who was planning to kill, and a judge sentence your brother to life imprisonment will you love your country?

Or after massacreing your people by herdsman, leaving your people in tears, the governor of your state is more interested in investigating why cows who came to destroy your source of food where poisoned, will you love your country?



Or is it the case of Repented Boko Haram who are being rehabilitated with the oil money that should have gone to members of the community where's the oil is being drilled?

If not tribalism and ethnic bigotry where aren't those termed "terrorist" in the southern part of the country also not rehabilitated and thought some skills?
If your child was stabbed to death in London, would you hate the UK? Would you say London has happened to your child and then japa to Australia.

There are risks everywhere and there are parts of the world that have very high risks equal or worse to BH.

When I lived in the UK in the 80's the IRA was a real threat a threat so real that the Conservative Party conference in Brighton was bombed and Margaret Thatcher barely escaped with her life. On a personal front I was just five minutes short of being unalived by a terrorist bomb in Regents park right in the heart of London.

Let's be real.

I would not say that.

The problem with the average Nigerian is that they want to ride in Ferraris for the price of a bicycle, and when that can't happen, the government is bad.

Also, the government is bad, until your side wins, then everything that is bad that happens under your government is either the fault of the oppositon, theAmericans, the Zionists, and if all that falis...we can blame the Hausas.

Nigeria is the kind of country that a baker will spend N2000 to bake a loaf of luscious bread, and then he would be met by angry customers demaning that he sell it at N200

Also we do not have good leadership because whenever Nigerians are told that it would cost millions to say develop a railway line between Jalingo and Calabar, they will say the leaders would loot all the money, which is a code word for....my side is not in power, therefore I am going to fight until my side is in power, or....as some people would give its appropriate name, laziness..


Finally, NIgerians love to talk. And it is far easier to sound like Diogenes than to be like the random Greek labourers who built up buildings like the Parthenon. Because at the end, sounding cynical is a lot easier than actually getting into politics and making things better...but then again yesterday's Diogenes, become tomorrow's epicureans when their side takes over.

Anyway, hi de hi!
Nothing bad about wanting a ferrari, what is bad is buying a ferrari at "over priced" amount when you compare the exchange rate

Buying a product at ×3 the value cos your currency is valueless is a big problem and there is no Sane human being that should be happy about inflation

All Nigerians want is Affordability" and its the same everywhere, a loaf of bread should not cost more than the highest currency of our country, the bread i eat is # 1700 just a regular loaf

Cost of operation is ridiculously high cos of insensitivity and morbid policies of the govt ... Nigeria grudge is not with the producers but the govt, cos we know they are our real problem

Nigeria politicians steal so much money they can't relate with the complains of hardship, they cant comprehend why people complain fuel at 1k is expensive when they can buy @ 10k per litre and not feel a thing

you buy chicken 10k for a kilo ... to an Akpabio or yahaya bello thats over cheap, it should be 50k or 100k per 1kg of chicken,

The only time our God forsaken politician know the value of money is on Workers salary

grin The fake Pastor forget that education in Nigeria is still partially subsidized by the government. If you get a scholarship to study medicine at John Hopkins, you will certainly end up spending less than N500,000 for the entire program

Many people from the SW are hypocritically forming emergency lovers of Nigeria these days, and the reason is obvious.

We'll be watching to see how long this newfound love for a country that has k!lled millions of dreams and doesn't take care of its citizens will last.

All of you clowns insulting him are proving him right,in Nigeria the youths are programmed to hate Nigeria, Al they do on social media is to insult and curse Nigeria and if you ask them.for solutions to the problems that they are angry about,none of them can give you a single solution, they will travel abroad and slave themselves over there working over there jobs,but they will never try such in Nigeria,they will gladly curse nigeria and happily worship Europe and America for no reason other than self-hate.

I feel it is a criminal offence for a leader to outrightly devalue his country currency ,the confusion it generated is unprecedented, everything went up rent, food, transport, medicals, electricity,may God help the people,

Nigerians have always hated the mess that the country is before the Advent of social media.
Re: "Nigerians Are Programmed To Hate Their Country On Social Media - Poju Oyemade by Guestmale:
Nigeria can change and becomes heaven on earth if Nigerians can have a change mindset at our own little corners that we found ourselves,we always complain our leaders have failed us, yes that is true but did these leaders fall from the sky, they rose up to leadership from among us, today's leaders are yesterday's followers.

What I discovered is that most Nigerians are bitter against corruption because they are not the one enjoying or perpetrating the corruption. 90% of Nigeria population are potential thieves just waiting for the opportunity.

No angel will fall from the sky to come and change us. An immigration or custom officers is not ready to do his or her duty faithfully without asking for gratification, but when he or she gets to a licencing office to collect license for his vehicle,he will be expecting the licence officers to do their duty truthfully, a licence officers that collect bribe before rendering his duty will be expecting a faithful attendance from nurses and doctors when he has malaria and went to the hospital, on and on like that. We forgot what goes around will surely comes around.

What is APC actually wanting to achieve with this their propaganda? The simple fact that America is not sharing it's legit territory with numerous terrorists groups, is more than enough to show any right thinking person that, America is better than Nigeria. All these old fuulllls will be blabbing rubbishes just for $10.

Ok.
U have a child in school,and one deranged classmate who has a beef with his teacher comes into the school with a gun and massacre all the small kids in his class including ur child,will u love that country?
When u wake up to see ur child in the morning and suddenlu hear the news the child was seen in an old abandoned place,guaged,tortured and raped by a fella.will u be happy with that country?
When u finally seek justice,only for the fella to fake being insane and then let off by the judge.will u be happy with that country?
U come online with so much hate and bitterness for ur country like this is the worst country in the world.

It is unfortunate that our religious leaders, rather than speaking truth to power , have chosen to side with them and look down on the masses from who they themselves benefit from. That is how one of them condemned the poor in his sermon. They frolic with politicians and collect tithes and offering from their members.

This is not the model that Jesus set for us. As ministers of the gospel, let us be careful with our sermons

While.Nigerians can be very negative about Nigeria, it is not without cause.

And a lot of these pastors are sadly not the right messenger to propagate love for Nigeria; they either have massive investments outside the country or have settled all their kids outside the country. The ones whose kids are in the country are in elite positions and have citizenship/ PR of another country.

Not true, Affordability exist, infact it exist on both hardcopy & app dictionary, affordability exist in every part of the world governance and consumer protection exist

In the business world, no producer thinks of price without cognisance to " Affordability" for targeted clients/buyers

In sane climes where true governance exist, Govt make efforts to subsidize essentials for the average citizen cos "affordability" is key to consumption and turnover rate of businesses

Too much of tithe money causes some level of disconnect by the receiver from the reality faced by even the tithe payers. I don't blame the Opoju man, his stomach is bulging with tithe and offering.

Yes Pastor you are very correct on this, and it is intentionally powered by some individuals and groups to force and propagate the narratives of hopelessness, hate and frustration on unsuspecting compatriots.
They manipulate news, events and good intentions to drive their demonic intentions and force such narratives down the throats of the gullibles and simple-minded.
Spot on.

What is happening now is some businesses are making stupendous amount of profit like never before, even when you account for naira devaluation.

On the flip side, the average man on the street is feeling the brunt of income that can't keep up with rising goods prices.

Some are winning, and winning big. Many are struggling and can barely hold on.

Like Nigeria, countries such as the UK, USA are experiencing a similar dichotomy where the gap between the rich few and the rest of the population is growing wider and wider.

Personally, I now believe that uncontrollable capitalism as practised in these countries is not all honky dory, as we were led to believe in our old economics textbooks.

Nigeria needs to retrace its capitalist steps and pay more attention to the basic necessities of the ordinary people - food, and I think, electricity.

I am still shocked at Band A price for electricity. These private companies are only fixated on more and more profits while doing less and less.

Government needs to stop privatising utilities.
No where is electricity cheap,
We can't subsidy what is not efficient ,we first get it right before we subsidize. When MTN first come you see how expensive it is , later when the network is normal you see how cheap we sell the line.
Forge about been expensive now ,let it be available first

God bless you.

What we do to ourselves as followers is worse than what the so-called leaders do to us.

If we all do right by others and be diligent and honest in our small domain of authority, the multiplier effect will show almost immediately. And that also makes it impossible for bad leaders to emerge.

We need self accountability first, before demanding it from others.
