It is well but our country Nigeria is endowed with resources that can sustain the citizens. We only have bad custodians. If the economy of Nigeria is good, we won't go to united State on study visa and run around after expiration. God bless Nigeria.

No wonder a popular Pentecostal bishop in Nigeria was refused visa.

Anyway, America is not the only country we can travel to. Let America hold their visa. Nigerians have decided to stay back at home to develop their country.
So, you're among the gullible Nigerians who believed this ever happened? shocked Oyedepo was never refused Visa, neither did he visit the embassy as reported. Even the bovi of a guy has denied ever being in the embassy this week as reported.

a Biafra supporter I am. a blind one I am not. Anybody thinking its Trump that would give us Biafra is a big liar. With that being said, I was a proponent of one Nigeria but that rhetoric would never lead this 200m million people to the country the wish to see in their lifetime before they die. the reason I decided its eithrr we go back to what made Nigeria great in the past (true federalism/regional govt) or we split. Splitting sounds like a better option. Nothing and I repeat! nothing can work with the present setup Nigeria is in at the moment. I have had my own epiphanic moment and i hope yours comes to you in due cause. If you have lived outside Nigeria for atleast 4years you should have had that already. If not, it may never at all. BTW, you never fact replied my previous comment instead you beat around the bush on frivolous claims.

I share your sentiment about Nigeria system with its inefficiencies. Truly, the system is bad and I’m not also sure it ain’t working anymore.

However, pending the time we can get it right about either restructuring or breaking up, we need to at least make sure we are not contributing to Nigeria woes.

I’ve lived outside the country and I understand what you’re talking about.

About me not replying your last post, there is nothing to reply about. You spoke that you love Trump because of his economic success while overlooking his human emotion (calling a whole continent shitholes and demeaning people of color as sub-human) and how it affects your kind.

Remember hitler was also about Germany first and he was a hero to his people in terms of development and advancing German power. However, to the world he is a tyrant who slaughtered Jews like animals and he has no affections or human feelings towards them.

I’m not comparing Trump to Hitler tho, I’m just trying to let you know that everything is not about prosperity alone which explains why I did not bother to address that.

That guy is making sense with his post. Trump don't need to come out n say it is because of the protest n burning of American flag that leads to this. He has to present it in a more logical n matured way. But truth be told, they are not comfortable with Nigerians attitude n mental thinking because the Nigerian citizens r seriously exposed to terrorism activities n as such, the Americans r concern about the infiltration of terrorism minded people into their country. They r concern about their safety with Nigerians around, simple.

I don't think that it has anything to do with the protest. The reason is in the last paragraph. Almost 20% of Nigerians that visit the US end up stating illegally.

The reason is not because of overstayed visa, that is just an excuse.

Nigeria is one of the leading states sponsor of terror in the world and the government instigated some protesters to burn America flag few weeks ago.

Don't forget Trump use national security issue to negotiate trade deal with Canada few years ago. When Trump want to do something, he can come up with any excuse

Imagine if our president cared about Nigeria the way Trump caree about USA. I think this is the main reason ppl like him. He is selfish and only has love for Americans and does everything at thier interest. Imagine a president that only eats, sleep, and dream about the avg. Nigerian everyday to the point of being obsessed with trying to make their lives better. Just imagine that. Instead what do we have? A tribalistic _bastard.

In human existence, there has always been differences in development of nations across civilizations. Saudis constitute the bulk of people that have been threat to American security and yet Trump never banned them.

You spoke about good countries, but Trump was of the opinion that we were banned coz we were overstaying. Ask yourself why can’t Trump ban other countries like China, India, Canada, Italy, etc. that are overstaying too? Is the law meant to discriminate between people based on their prosperity?

I will stop responding to all or you Trump wannabes coz it seems conversing with you guys is not worth it.


lol. you talk like a kid. who commands respect when he has not earned it? even in your immediate family, the richest kid, sibling, family member commands the most respect talkless of on a country to country basis. not just the law, every one and rational beung discriminates based on their prosperity indexes. you are here forming liberal rational thinking. Oga go and sitdown. we should even ask you how you got to the US in the first place and how you managed to have a permanent residency there. Maybe you already secured plans in forwarding your family members there and this happened. I do not care about Trump. he is ruling his own country. you should focus on your own country.

How? I ask u how again? They are not restricting goods from Nigeria but settlers and even so, its not 100% restriction. If your service is needed or you have a genuin reason, there will be a waiver! See what wailing has done to your life before you started shouting Buhari 'upandan', the reason for the restriction is as a result of your 'bloda' activities that overstayed and those in Yahoo Yahoo multi billion dollar industry.

Lol, I laugh tire for the bolded words.

Tbh, Buhari is nothing to write home about. He is clueless like you guys always say.

However, Nigeria problem predates Buhari and I’m pretty sure we all called Jonathan Buffon during his own time too.

No matter who presides over Nigeria, they will always be clueless because the system is bad and the people are divided along religious/tribalism lines.

No redemption in sight if we maintain this current system. You think only the leaders are bad? Well you don’t actually know the mind of an average Nigerian.

Hear yourself. Same Saudi where human right is strictly limited. Where freedom of information does not exist. Where gender equality is absolutely fiction.

Face the truth, Saudi is in no way better than Nigeria. They are just rich and have what to offer the US.

Load of terrorist have been linked to Saudi than any other nations but yet nothing happens.

Economical sound I agree but if a Nigeria can fall on that list, that means Saudi, Qatar, Kuwait and Oman should be on that list.

But the truth is that, they can never!

The love started when Nnamdi Kanu did some BS about Trump approving Biafra and you guys fell for that sh*t. Some of you even celebrated Trump when he won his election in 2016 shouting Biafra is here lol.

Hear this, Trump hates everything you represent, he is indifferent to your plight and he sees all people of color as one. He does not care whether you’re African or African Americans.

Leave us to worry about that.
Let me tell You why I love him, I love him cos he's annihilating all terrorists, their sympathisers and the potentials ones I see on this thread.
He doesn't feed or cloth Me.
Stop crying, you can equally hate him back and he won't give a rat ass too. grin

why nigerians especially the igbos love trump is because he is a say and do politician. in the history of nigeria, no politician has ever come close to his record of keeping his words. this is what we solely miss and need as a people in Nigeria and Africa alone. if you reason properly you see the love for him revolves around economic growth, value for citizens lives, security, takes no nonsense from others, is his own man and no cabal dictates for him. we do not care about other aspects of his life which is outside governance because what he was put there for in the first instance, he is doing a perfect job at it.

Bia enyi I will let you know two things.

I am Igbo
I am an American citizen

But Trump is a massive hater of blacks. His policies are mainly targeting the coloured.

My God father is white and he was a migrant and a strong supporter of Trump until recently.

I run a lot of his businesses and anything that affects me or people of my colour affects him too because I made sure a lot of his workers are people of colour as well.

America was built on the back of immigrants and Trump's origins were immigrants but here he is being an idiot.

Trump wants to keep America white and as we speak many Republicans are dumping his sorry ass because my God father is part of a Trump campaign caucus over 25,000 strong in his county but at least half of them will not be voting for Trump come November.

He has torn the very fabrics of American unity in shreds now the hatred between whites and people of colour is through the roof.

Some here wonder why a lot of my threads have been anti thrump and that is because his policies affect me directly and the people I love. A pro Nazi President like Thrump is no friend to blacks.

Saudi Arabia ranks number 1 in the country that has caused terrorist related deaths. That is enough to get a travel ban. Hell even the assassination of Kashoogi is enough. The fact is he has lots of investments in Saudi that's why he can't place a ban on them. Tell me what has Eritrea done to get a ban?

This is one of the well written total nonsense I have read in years. If you know what that ban will do to this country, then you should be more concerned. If you are of trump ass licker, that's think all is action is right just because he talks loud and intimidate other countries with his actions then you need a whole lot of prayer. NY dear, your trump is an asshole, and will always be one. This has nothing with him fighting for the Christians, because all the last three presidents in USA as in one way or the other do that. The bush administration invade Iraq, Clinton continues, Obama invades Libya and your lousy trump is trying to attack Iran, and something's ago south Korea. If you have an idea what the multiplier effect this will have then you would be really concerned. Usa have made more enemies than friend under this mad man, and the world peace been threaten, just because he knew the state has the capacity to defend herself, while millions will die if care is not taken from the action of this ignorant fool. And if the north has burn the america flag for killing solemani so what, must you cut of the head because the hair is bald. And if you think closing our borders is bad, then guy you are completely wrong. This action should have been taken a long time ago, and I wonder why obasanjo economic team didn't do that, despite the fact I still consider that team the best. Give me the names of any advance economy in the whole world that doesn't produce at least 75 percent of what they eat, but here we do nothing than depend on other economy to feed us, and yet we want progress. I commend this administration for that giant stripe, though I disagree with lots of other actions and decisions.

It’s always the same too amongst families. You might fight with your brother at home but when an outsider tries to come between you, you’ll both first deal with him and then come back to your roforofo fights.

Agreed. But that's not the reason Trump is placing a restriction on Nigerians. It's just a make up. It's glaring to all that Nigerians have enormously abused visas and same time have a bastardized image by it's very own citizens.

It's just difficult to put it straight in a statement but it's glaring. By the standards listed in that statement, Some countries should top the list and that's where I disagree.
