Beautiful I must say.
However I can see the extra effects given to these images to make them more alluring, which apparently makes them quiet exaggerated. And then, yes, I can perceive the intention poster. Weldonesir!
Note: If you fail to get my point, it may be that you lack judicious temperament. Work on it!

take ur time b4 u pass out on dis thread adamu!

How can u be comparing an African region that was reduced 2 rubbles in a relatively recent war,with developed countries of the world? If u had compared former eastern region with other Nigerian or even African regions,it wud hav even made a semblance of sense.

Take it easy


And take heart adamu!

Lol. Keep making excuses. Germany was reduced to more than rubble after WW2. The whole country. I say again, not one region but the whole country. It was decimated completely. Why is it that they were able to turn the country into one of the cleanest and most beautiful countries in the world. Or are you saying they are superior to you? Face reality my brain dead neanderthal. Majority of Nigerians are no different from cavemen who do not know how to function in the modern world. You guys are still burning people in the streets, littering uncontrollably, looting yourselves blind and the funny thing is, you keep burying your heads in the sand and making excuses to make yourselves feel better. Carry on. What a people. Smh

The aftermath of the war still haunts us today.... hatred, tribal and religious sentiments has eaten deep into the skin of every Nigerian..... insults are ready to be given at the slightest provocation....Some argue the war was fought because of freedom and injustice ( I agree) others argue that it was fought because of the greed of men, their ignorance( that I also agree) it was a mixture of both... it depends on how you see it and also how you argue..... Now I am waiting for the two tribes to start wishing each other death and sorrow. So, 1.....2...3....Go!
If you were able to go through of ffk article yesterdayor you were not try to find it and read.I think the best thing for Igbo and Yoruba now is to understand each other and put sentiment ,ethnicity and religion apart by doing this is the only way to libration.

Ever heard of the Marshall Plan and the billions of dollars it cost to rebuild Germany then?.
Nigeria's own 3R's ended up building up Lagos,rather than the areas devastated by war.

Poverty is Golden:
The North is poor, very very poor, yet Northerners are not the ones crossing the Mediterranean to get to and stay in Europe by all means in the name of greener pasture. Northerners do not constitute the desperadoes crossing the desert to make it to North Africa to board a sinking dingy bound for Europe.
The North is sooooo poor that its girls don't trade sex abroad.
With all the wealth, the people who give Nigeria and Africa terrible name and outlook are not from the North.
Nigerians on death row in Malaysia, Indonesia and Brazil are from the wealthy part of Nigeria which of course isn't the North.
So if this is what it takes to be rich or poor I think poverty is golden.

wow I tot dey said igbos re intelligent. ..now I know beta. you lack analytical mind. now let me break dz down to you. ibadan AKA the brown roof Republic is d biggest city in Africa. there are more urbanised centers in ibadan dan d biafra land. Now think...the so called brown roofs are just some part tho significant yet small part of ibadan. the recent survey of urbanisation nd industrialisation ibadan comes b4 any igbo nation. let lets talk wit wisdom
dont even mention ibadan cos 90% of ibadan is full of brown roof ibadan is only big for nothing

What are you saying? Why you mumu like this na? Yes Germany had to get loans and funds from different countries to build up the country. Nigeria has gotten loans and funds from different countries as well. Plus, from the world bank, IMF, and it even has oil. What have they done with it? Germany built up it's country to what it is today and more importantly, are able to maintain it. Nigeria cannot even maintain a university hostel's toilet. Think before you post rubbish.
