💯💯💯 Deceiving themselves

Giants in terms of population size.

Cannot be disputed.

..he should had saved the billions of naira he is spending and wasting over there in his Europe vacation.. by spending his vacation in Lagos he claimed and developed ... have you ever seen UK prime minister coming to spend vacation in Nigeria ... It's a pity

Enough!!! You ain't making any sense.

Giant of nothingness. Pray tell what exactly we are good at in this country? If we can have an alleged drug lord as president then how far can a nation fall?

You know that's not what they mean.

Giant in terms of peace keeping.

Giant in terms of being one of the economic power houses in Africa.

In that case the are 2 or 3 other such giants bigger than Nigeria

seppuku:
Peace keeping force to Sierra Leone and Liberia that ended 2 devastating wars in Africa.

Huge sacrifices made both in lives and finances. NO other African country could carry that weight at that point in time.

You must read more my southern brother.

We don't measure giants in only matters of how much electricity one can produce.

Lol.. you make me laugh hey.. the minute someone disputes your claims or doesnt agree with you, they're automatically "non_readers"..

Dude.. Nigeria is no African giant. Population, yes, and that's where it ends..


What makes you think South Africa hasn't been involved in peace keeping missions of its own? How many South African soldiers died helping the Congolese?

Yes, it makes sense you wont measure " greatness" by electricity input because you lack those things, but some countries don't..let them use their own barometer to measure their own greatness..

Was waiting for your predictable reference to South AFrica's peace keeping mission in Congo so we can run a comparison.

How many soldiers died during your peace keeping force may I ask?

What were the financial implications your country bore for this mission to the Congo?

Please state before we move forward.

Did I state there is only one giant in Africa?

Your criteria for "African giant".. was involvement in peace keeping missions.. my guy, that club is not exclusive..

South Africa has been involved in 20+ peace keeping since the dawn of democracy..

So the number of casualties argument veers from your original premise that to be African giant" one" must have peace keeping missions. You are not alone in that club

Furthermore, other countries can claim to be "giants" based purely where their strengths lie.. Egypt can claim to be "giants" based purely on tourism numbers, Botswana can claim to be Giants " based on Diamonds, etc.. Every African country has what it sets it apart.. but all these countries don't go around screaming "giants"

seppuku:

Then your nickname is deeply flawed and dated.

But surely we can "quantify" our contributions during these "peace keeping" missions to qualify the criteria we claim.

Can you therefore kindly answer the earlier questions?

Simply because other countries do not "claim" the status of giants of whatever they seem fit, does not negate or reduce the right for us to make that claim based on a list of valid criteria therefore you are contradicting yourself.

The gripe I see here is that we are audacious enough to claim such a title.

Lol, Look, at the end of the day you can call yourselves with whatever you deem fit.. be it "giants" Gods' Titans, etc.. it's your prerogative..however, crowning yourselves as the undisputed "giants of Africa" is delusional, you are nobody's "giant"

I can feel the jealousy written all over that statement from the post 1994 new kids on the block.

If it didn't matter you wouldn't dispute it would you?

hahaha.. I forget how everyone and their mama is always somehow "jealous" of you Nigerians, right? But what is there to be "jealous " of? A moniker you bestowed on thyself?

Ok, then, since this matters so much..

You guys are the "giants of Africa", the alpha and the Omega, and I bow before you.

When was the last time this lame giant of Africa won rights to host anything of note diplomatically in Africa or the globe?

Coz the world knows they're being played. They bid saying they're the best thing in Africa but have nothing to prove for it.

That's why I said this is an insult to all of Africa.

Do you have to win the rights to host diplomatic engagements or are you alluding to sporting events?

It if didn't erk you in some way shape or form, you wouldn't comment on it.


You can't help sizing D((ks can you?

Yes, South Africa just hosted the Commonwealth Parliamentary Conference. When has Nigeria hosted it or you don't bid? Don't find value in hosting the world and boosting your international profile?

Commonwealth -2003

WEF- We don't have money to be wasting on something that yields no benefit.

Africa Tourism Iindaba- We are not a tourist nation


Africa Mining Iindaba- We have oil over here.


BRICS Summit- We don't want problems with Western power and are not aligned with the global south.

G20 Summit- Will give that one to you.

Commonwealth - 2003 (that's 23 years ago, living on past glory indeed)

Oil - when last did you host OPEC anything?

Brics - but you wanted to be Brincs and Egypt + Ethiopia beat you to it. I believe you're now something insignificant like partner country and not full member of BRICS+

Giant of Africa indeed 💩💩💩

Why didn't you host it in then after you gained independence and waited for so long?

RandDigital:

BRICS has not done anything significant in the past 5 years. Where is the deviation from the dollar agenda you were about to implement?
