When I see these sort of statistics, I just wonder why some people prefer to split this country up into little Sierra Leones and Gambias - small small local champions that are irrelevant in the larger scheme of things. As a single unit, Nigeria is a top nation anywhere anytime, and will get more so in the future.

Are you saying Nigeria will turn into Gambia of Igbos go? I don't think so. It may even prosper more.

It was the whites that produced it when they were in power in SA.
After apartheid, they had to denuclearize.

Those shitty black illiterates can't even produce an electricity bulb..
And yes, Nigeria can produce nuclear weapons. But we don't have the materials needed to do so.

Lol, my country always give you heart palpitations doesn't it? Anyway those black illiterates still have a higher literacy rate than you, so you're speaking straight from your rectum

But atleast, theirs wouldnt be as bad as our own..,though I havent been to SA before, but my cousins who came home last xmas from SA were looking sparklingly fresh and they confessed that SA is by far ahead of nigeria in terms of human development, economy, education, military/police, health, just name it. thats why our people die to go to SA in order to do all manner of odd jobs.

what about libya whose currency is by far stronger than most of the western countries, lets not go there.

lets just lay low and avioid competing with those countries atleast for now, while we fix our dear country.

Who is paying you to hype those things?

Most of what South Africa have currently, were inherited during colonization.

SA is still standing because whites rule the affair of the country.
If they ever grow balls and send them out, South Africa won't be any different from Zimbabwe.

SOUTH AFRICA, EGYPT, AND LIBYA DO NOT HAVE UNINTERRUPTED POWER SUPPLY. Go on Google and type 'power cuts' beside those countries' names, and you will see news of regular power cuts.

Power cuts are a common feature of 75% of nations on earth, which comprise developing nations. It is not unique to Nigeria!!
Egypt has uninterrupted power supply! Only four African countries has 100% power connectivity rate and stable power supply.

Still ranting in the same balderdash.
Peter Thiel, was Facebook's first big investor, with a $500,000 in 2004, when Mark Zuckerberg first set out to turn his dorm room project into a lasting business

In 2005, Zuckerberg's enterprise received a huge boost from the venture capital firm Accel Partners. Accel invested $12.7 million into the network, which at the time was open only to Ivy League students.

A little research wont kill you. Lazy youth


If your project is good and viable it will attract investors

cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy You sure know there are Nigerians creating drones and occupying high tech places in the USA right?

How come those group of Nigerians thrive only in foreign countries?

You used the line "Lazy Youth" on someone who's certainly doing better than you in real life grin I would really like to know your achievements as a hardworking youth cheesy.

This literacy rate y'all are on about is due to the high number of foreigners studying in your country. They collated the results by including "foreigners"

For all it's worth, South Africans are mostly drug addicts who drop out of school, that's why there's a productive drug selling opportunity there.

My brother, nobody paid any dime to me just saying what i saw last xmas the way it is.

bro, you need to see my cousins, their wives and kids, oh my God, the level of intelligence displayed by those kids of about 3-7yrs old is out of this world compared to their nigerian counterparts and their sparklingness radiates directly to the retina.

I'm not hyping SA, but at the bold texts, we were once ruled by the whites or is there any other Nigeria which i dont know?

What is a tech hub?
A tech hub is a community – informal or otherwise - that fosters
innovation for technology startup companies. A tech hub can be
a specific area like Silicon Valley, part of a city like London’s
Silicon Roundabout, or a specific building or set of buildings
where small startups can rent space alongside each other to
share facilities and ideas.
Tech hubs create an environment specifically targeted at
helping young technology companies thrive by encouraging
experimentation, not demonising failure, and helping firms
network with other like-minded individuals and enterprises. It
also makes it easier for firms to meet investors in order to get
their project funded. It helps ideas germinate and companies
prosper. That’s the hope, anyway.


Abeg Nigerian Tech hubs have no Tangible impact on the Nigerian economy. Nothing to point at, just paper achievement that doesn't translate to anything real.

Anyone who feels otherwise can counter me with facts.
