And some fools were castigating PMB for saying a lots of nigerian youths are lazy.... shocked shocked

Truly a lot of our youths are very lazy, they sit home doing nothing holding government responsible even when they have bad dreams.

They wanna become rich suddenly. They are into money ritual of all categories fooling themselves that they are yahoo boys tongue tongue

Those jobless youths in south south are the worst set of people on earth. They don’t wanna work because they have oil.

I believe this story. I live in Portharcourt and my little experiences have made me conclude, this guys are cursed.

How do you explain this:
At a time Shell wanted to do CSR and decided to construct the road behind their staff quarters (Shell RA), only to be told by the elders that it is not necessary, if only they can make some payment to the community elders, that should be ok for them in lieu of the road that the entire community would benefit from.
Same repeated itself when they wanted to supply Power to the community, the elders hijacked this and collected some peanuts instead.

The same thing happened when i relocated to a new area in the same portharcourt. There is a very big catholic church that decided to mount a security gate at the entrance of the estate. The gate stood erected for less than a week. The next i saw was that the gate had been pulled down by some boys within the estate, all because the church did not give them "cola". Imagine that nonsense.

I give up on this guys.

Liar. Useless ass. I wanted to give each Nigerian youth 10 million naira, it was the bank that stopped me. I had already initiated the disbursement through the cbn 3 times.

He is not lying. I was born and breed in Warri. Even if it’s your personal house you wanna do renovations, they will come and collect something from you. It’s one of the major reasons Warri is so underdeveloped with little or no oil company in it anymore. Touts in form of community youths have driven off investment off Warri.

The taste of the pudding is in the eating.

All those who think Ali Baba is lying should try it. From touts to LG personnel, everyone wants to be bribed.

It is the same way FG will not allow State governments to fix federal roads because it will eat into their federal allocations that have been earmarked for excessive looting.

Sometimes, I wonder why bother?

Same thing I witnessed...

Federal government was trying to fix electricity for a remote community in Ogun State where I worked and they were constantly harassed by youths for money.

Government threatened to leave before the community intervened.

Some of our people are crazy

This nonsense happens almost everywhere especially in Lagos.

Lazy young thugs would stop any development work just cos they weren't given the so-called "owo boys"

Agugu in Ajegunle remains untended to cos of this nonsense and the worst is they will have mouth to mention the amount of money they want.

I wouldn't say it's the whole citizenry but we're too afraid to challenge and stop these riffraffs from such nonsensical hindrances.

This is very standard practice in Warri and environs; a very disgusting and retrogressive way of life that has succeeded over the years in destroying the business climate in Warri and chased away all investors. Just imagine a company as large a Shell packing up and relocating to PH and Lagos?

I still shake my head at the foolishness of people who still ignorantly defend the miscreant youths perpetrating these acts, mostly excusing their actions by arguing that "the youths are restiveness because govt did not provide jobs food to feed their lazy asses." Worst of all are ignorant folks who excuse the acts of the miscreants but go about to spin or swallow silly conspiracies about how Yorubas and Hausas are the ones responsible for businesses running to Lagos.

You no pay deve. For those that don't understand, dev means development levy, it is the birthright of the jobless youth in the Niger delta, they extort this monies from those who bring development to the community. This has been an age long tradition that has repelled development and investment in the region.

Very true. Ali baba is not lying. I served in River state. In one very remote village that didn’t have light and roads just because of this same thing.

If you don’t pay them money, also popularly known as “touching ground” you won’t be able to do the work, despite the fact that it is for the good of their own communities.

To say I was disgusted by this is an understatement, very underdeveloped areas, mostly because of the mentality of their citizenry.
