I dont think I said that. Although we are in some respects.



Hahahahahahahaaha!
This actually cracked me up, so funny!

Slow your roll brother, calm your nerves, your journey has only begun.

you said "if you think no progress has been made in Nigeria, you're probably a teenager"

1. You can start a business in 48 hours in Rwanda. It takes 11.1 days on average in OECD high income countries.

2. Rwanda is leading Africa’s digital revolution. The Smart Kigali initiative will create access to free wireless internet on public buses, in hospitals, taxi parks, commercial buildings and restaurants, while a partnership with Korea Telecom is creating access to 4G for 95% of the population.

3. Between 2001 and 2012, real GDP growth in Rwanda averaged 8.1% per annum. According to the Fitch rating agency, Rwanda is experiencing ‘rapid and inclusive economic growth driven by credible economic policy’.

4. Rwanda has the world’s highest representation of women in parliament. 64% of Rwanda’s members of parliament are women.

5. A dramatic improvement in healthcare delivery and health outcomes has seen life expectancy in Rwanda rise by 10 years in the last decade. Over 90% of Rwandans have access to medical insurance.

6. Rwanda is one of the few African countries on track to achieve the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). Net primary school attendance is at over 91%.

7. One million Rwandans overcame poverty between 2006 and 2011. Innovative homegrown development solutions have reduced poverty. For example, the Girinka programme, which provides every poor family in Rwanda with a cow, has reduced malnutrition, increased agricultural productivity and created small business opportunities.

8. In 2007, Rwanda became the first country in the world to legislate an outright ban on plastic bags. It is estimated that the EU produces 3.4m tonnes of plastic bags in a year, creating carbon emissions and dangerous waste.

9. On the last Saturday of every month, every Rwandan, starting with the President, participates in Umuganda, a day of national community service. Through Umuganda, Rwandans have built schools, medical centres, hydroelectric plants, and rehabilitated wetlands to create highly productive agricultural plots, and cleaned their cities, towns and villages – making Kigali one of the cleanest cities in Africa.

10. According to the Ibrahim index of African Governance, Rwanda is one of the only two countries to show consistent overall governance improvements since 2000. It is ranked number one in Africa for Gender, and is one of the top five most improved countries since 2000.

Thats all very good and commendable.

My friend you really need to step back and analyze properly. I see you are a student, you do have a long way to go.
Calm your nerves.

codemaniacs:
this is your main problem...

You see yourself as a "Nigerian" (a british creation)..

You have to learn to see yourself as your ethnic nation first..

Nigeria is too big for everyone to keep shouting NIGERIA this, NIGERIA that...
may be benin is bad for you, it may not be bad to other people..

Covenant University and some other places within Nigeria have 24hrs power supply..

some people have CREATED the right environments for their ethnic groups to prosper...

be the change you want to see from the Bini people (if you are Bini)..

Nigeria is been held back because southern Nigerians are not tribal enough..

How many billionaires from your ethnic nation are currently supporting their fellow tribes people...

Lol what you just suggested would do more harm than good, it'll go a long way in dividing the country further when we're still managing it like this

RoastedCorn:

Yes thats because progress has been made.
Our history is a work of conflict resolution in progress and by that parameter our democracy is a sign post of progress for those old enough to properly remember military rule. Do you?

Aside from that there has been progress in some key sectors. Telecommunications is one. Still a long way to go though.

Roastedcorn you shouldn't have made the research, i wanted him (deepsight) to speak for himself and make a fool out of himself.

Stupid set of people who are addicted to poverty, people believing it the people's work to start developing Nigeria, when you elect leaders.

There's nothing he sourced or mentioned that changes the point I am trying to help you see.
We are happy for Rwanda - End of.

How does that change the issues at play?

RoastedCorn:

Nope. It is not.

DeepSight:
Why should I?
Why dont you tell me how Rwanda is more developed than Lagos?

Have you been to both places by the way?

Look, Rwanda is a very small country gradually getting its act together and getting things right after a horrible past. That is commendable. Needless to say their smaller size makes them more manageable. This does not mean that Rwanda is a more developed space than Lagos. It simply is not. Not by a mile.

Shut up have you ever had 24/7 steady electricity in your life, have you ever had access to quality water in your life before, in your so called lagos do you have good roads, high brow areas in your so called lagos is nothing but slump in some developped nations, in your life have ever breathed non polluted air. All these mediocre minds forming they know all, you are addicted to poverty. Educate yourself, read books and develop yourself stop spewing trash.

There is something called human dignity which you can never understand.
That is why you will engage in fraud and commit heinous crime just to
measure up.
I don't blame you though, lack of brainpower make it impossible for you
to survive without becoming a slave.

Village boy, you must think money grow on trees in Europe or America.
Sorry to disappoint you but you will end up in an IDP camp over there.
If you are lucky you may become a gigolo to a dying woman or shit packer
just like other fools who risked everything to "enjoy" what their fathers didn't
work for.

Sharap poverty-stricken 'one zombigerian' monkey. Have you ever entered a plane in your miserbale life before. Poverty go finish your lineage there.

Oh shap ap you little boy! I have no doubt I am at least twice your age and a hundred times more vastly traveled.
I am indulging you just to see if I am able to encourage young Nigerians to have a positive attitude to our country - because it is key for your future.

If you like, have a woe-begone attitude - thats your kettle of fish, not mine.

My street is perfect and much nicer than this, thanks - but I have no need to engage in such infantile nonsense.
Now let me ask you a question.

What exactly is your grouse with Nigeria and what do you intend to do about it?

you people should just end all this shit argument, its not worth it. If you think Nigerian is the best for you then so be it. One mans meat is another's poison.
But if you are not OK with Nigeria no one is holding anyone back,you can zoom out according to your pocket, I believe the easiest route is seme border,just N500 you are already in Benin republic.

RoastedCorn:

Totally agree - and I only said so as I am getting sick of your empty and useless vituperations. You speak absolute nonsense when its obvious you have no clue what you are talking about. Its clear from what you write that you are still a little kid who has not seen much of the world - but no matter. Just at least try to calm down and seek a worthwhile path forward. Who do you think you are helping with all this negative and meaningless ranting? Nobody. Your country is cursed? Ok - we agree, go jump off a cliff! Would that make you happy?

You need to calm your self down - and I have been trying to be patient with you despite your many meaningless insults and presumptions. I can see where you are coming from but there is so much more to life than just frustration with the state of things. Trust me, I know.

Now I ask you the same question: What is your grouse with Nigeria and what do you intend to do about it?

RoastedCorn:
this the thing that alot of Nigerians do that I hate . . .10 persons goes abroad, 3 didn't make it and they start painting traveling abroad bad as if living in Nigeria is not worse..... Bros, let's talk about the more than 100 youths you know personally that are either unemployed or earning less than 250K a month......let's talk about our brothers that were killed in benue that nothing has been done till now.... let's talk about what happened in plateau this year about the death of innocent people that nothing was done due to the president's tribal sentiments....let's talk about herdsmen and the killing of innocent citizens......just like the selfish Nigerian that you are, you're not concerned cos those invloved in these killings ain't your family members or friends.....let's talk about looting, about rigging and how our votes does not count, let's talk about the obvious rigging that happened in Osun state and why voting is a waste of time cos Buhari would win next year's Election through rigging..... let's be very clear that even though Atiku miraculously wins he's no different from Buhari and that Nigeria will still remain a shithole....

Bro I was a pro Nigeria and still am, but I don tire, I'm frustrated cos I know me and you can't change the country

u clearly didn't get my angle of perspective.
What I was saying in summary is that no destination or place can guarantee u happiness and self comfort unless u urself develops it irrespective of the condition u find ur self in.
All these atrocities u mentioned happens everywhere. Mass shooting and gang wars happens in America.
Knife slashing, racism and other vices happens in Britain and other European countries.
Vote rigging happens everywhere. U can't know because Inferiority complex and as$ licking won't let u know what happens behind the scenes in these countries u worship.
People make it here as much as people make it abroad. People also fail here as much as people fail over there.
Africa and Nigeria is corrupt and there is nothing u and I can do about it. So why wail and die on something u can't change.?
Or should we all pack our bags and go abroad because the country is corrupt?
Those places u worship and adore, is their citizens not the ones that made it habitable for themselves?
The time u realize every person, city is not equal, the better u live and enjoy ur life while it lasts.
Or u can choose to wail and blame the politicians 24/7.its all ur choice.

when hungry never-do-well buffoon is shouting 'one naijeeriyya' you begin to query if he is normal in brain at all? For me I pray that poverty-stricken 'one nigerianists' die in their poverty, I can never help them, they are the ones who should take up arms and fight to disintegrate this country, they are ones who the country has failed but they instead find it easy to abuse IPOB and Kanu and hail the nigeria that have caused them so much pain and hunger.

IbrahimDamola:
This is absolutely correct.

No sane person who gets a taste of civility outside the shores of useless nigeria will want nigeria to remain as one. Most of the people who still support one nigeria after travelling abroad are ;

1) politicans, because they reap from the rotten system.

2) children of politicians, same reason as above.

3) ethnic bigots, because probably their brother is in power.

4) religious bigots, because their muslim brother is in power.

5) Politicians' associates, the ones who help nigerian politicians hide money abroad and buy properties.

Abeg add the ones who are so used to suffering and not exposed to a better life that they think the zoo is a paradise.
