[quote author=middlebelter post=94657303][/quote]The country is heading to doom bro. If the country is not restructured, it will explode o.

selemempe:
When will abokì make us proud outside Nigeria?

Can someone please tell us why Nigeria needs the north east and north west?

Exactly what I wanted to ask. U rarely will find northerners in news like this. U rarely will find them in private sector.

They only win govt sponsored scholarship and secure mainly FG employment.

I wonder the type of brains they actually have. Southern nigeria is slave to north. It is our collective sweat in the south that the north uses to feed her teeming population. Out tax, our competitiveness, our resources, etc. Chaii.

Na why when yorubas and igbos fight, I just laugh. The best thing we can do for our children as southerners is to break away from these guys in the north.

BreconHills:
You have hit all the right notes. In fact, everything you have said is correct. Nigeria has failed. You are also right not to blame any specific leader because there have been failures every step of the way. What we have is a huge vested interest that uses poverty as a means of controlling the populace. Mind you we cannot talk these people (and they span politics, religion, entertainment, business and education) into leaving peacefully or even changing the rules of a game they are winning as the cries for restructuring try to do.

Our only weapon is to delegitimize them. To deny them what they crave the most; popularity and fame. What we need is a "Delegitpol" movement. If the papers refuse to carry their news, we do not vote or salute them in the streets, give them the best places when they attend events or give them the mic in churches and mosques - we will cowe and defeat them. These are guys with massive inferiority complexes who need others to be worse than themselves in order for them to feel special.

Of course some people will suffer if they take such a stand - the journalists taking brown envelopes and the people who enjoy "dash" but they are in the minority.

Next time we see these characters don't boo them, don't even frown. Just ignore. The dice will fall on the peoples side.

Yes bro. Nice tactics. Sincerely, the media failed the people, the religious centres failed the people. As u said, they worship these criminals who call them selves politicians.

And as u rightly said, these politicians will never give up on a system them favour and feed them easily.

Gerrard59:
I have been preaching the bold sinceeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. Hopefully, they listen.

They will not listen o. While north sees it as a means to hold on to power, southerners are beginning to have sense and are taking population growth seriously.

The problem is that no matter how big northern population is, they will be fed by resources from the south and tax coming mainly from the south. The whole system is fraudulent to southern nigeria.

And the worse part is that we all will share from the problems coming as a result of population boom. See, anyone who is not preaching a system that is like the current UK composition of 4 nations or the American true federalism is a wicked soul. Nigeria may become extremely bloody in 30 years time.

Kestolove:
The name ojukwu spoiled everything..name of a coward rebel

No, he is not a rebel. Look at what nigeria has become today. Are u happy with Nigeria? I heard rich nigerian politicians are buying citisenship of eastern Europe because they know Nigeria is not living up to their expectations.

naija4life247:
Why didn't Obasanjo and Goatluck Jonaddaft Restructure?

Are u sincerely telling me that u are not worried about the future of this country? If Nigeria is like this with visionless leaders, oh boy, sorry, in the next 30 years, it will be a war zone. In fact, the military now warns staff of traveling by road, that is how terrible it is. A high rank military officer was kidnapped today and the military is warning soldiers of traveling by land. Laugh won kill me.

Oh boy, i dont even encourage anyone to birth in Nigeria now o. Omo, the country will surely become extremely violent. Sadly, the politicians are well secured, they will run away with their families.

This one no be matter of GEJ and OBJ matter o. This matter na matter that will favour the citizens more. Oil prices are crashing and countries are investing heavily to power their industries and cars without oil o. The way unemployment and brokeness will worry Naija in few years to come with the high rate of loan, omo, na sorry, plus high population growth.

Ur president must not repeat what other presidents did. I shall hope u are paid govt member and u can afford to fly out when yawa burst. In fact, criminals kidnapped DSS officer and they even paid ransom and he was still killed. Road safety officers were kidnapped. In fact, govt security agencies now pay ransom for their members to be released. hahahahahaha

The population growth is bloody while the development growth is too slow, that is time bomb o. Bro, get sense abeg.

onyxo76:
bro I hope efcc too will not begin to overdo things, I no trust those efcc sef, they fit plant one kain evidence on top you to label you as fraudster

hahahahaha but efcc is better than SARS!

As much as possible, we need discourage our young ones from going into fraud.

onyxo76:
that footballer that they killed in ijebu last ma Yahoo boy, if you no fit recognize your town club footballer then you have nothing to do in police force, what about those doctor that they pick up for Lagos this year, na Lagos CP intervention save then when association of doctors threaten strike,

I get ur point but ma brother, even lecturers these days are doing yahoo yahoo

Naija don cast

onyxo76:
yes but what about just picking up people at random and taking them to atm to settle? are those ones too Yahoo boys? what about breaking into hostel and carrying away your electronics and other gadgets that one na checking for Yahoo boys? how many people go watch football for viewing centre and SARS will just come and pack everyone, that one too na looking for Yahoo boys? those sars have deviated from what they are established for, why will police be wearing mufti and using unmarked car to operate? they should just disband them

But this is why I said SARS should be banned from the routine road search. Efcc should be equipped with the man power to do all that.

k2money:
The problems is that they are harassing innocent people and kill at will

That is why I suggest the govt ensure only Efcc and ICPC handle fraud cases. They must be fished out.

UDUJ:
I hardly look at people's profiles, but after reading your post I just had to check your profile. Well said bro, well said

Thanks bro

onyxo76:
they are only after those Yahoo boys because of what can get from them and not to make any arrests, if they can't find anyone to extort, they will just find one deeper life brother and label him Yahoo boy just to make sure they meet the required target for the day.

We are still saying the same thing. The yahoo boys are also criminals. I was a victim when they cleared my account as a student in 2013, they also scammed my mother in law of her meeting money, they also scammed my younger sister this year. So, yahoo boys are also criminals armed with the internet and shouldnt be mad when another criminal extort from them

The police need to make sure a unit is specially drafted from efcc to tackle yahoo while SARS face armed criminals.

nony43:
We don't want a ban, we want you to #EndSARS. When the dust is down, those guys will sneak out again and we'll start all over again.

We are wiser now. #EndSarsNow.

How many times will the IGP ban them?

Lol as bad some of them are, that unit is extremely important in this country o. The issue is to find a way to stop them from checking on yahoo yahoo boys and allow only efcc to handle that one. I can still remember that some nigerians are still complaining about efcc. Lol.

But it is better left for efcc to do all the fraud checkups. Sars and other tactical units cant be banned o. They are extremely important in fishing out some deadly criminals.

What started all these rubbis was the way internet fraud became almost something we generally accepted in the country. In fact, at some points, internet fraud became something people were proud to do. This gave the rise of the menace by sars men who also saw these guys as a means to chop money too.

So, the force can't ban them o, we need them. Armed robbers are deadly. The force just have to find a way to control them from checking on yahoo boys or searching phones.

As for stopping cars on high way, I don't know how we go handle that one. Many times, criminals have been caught on high way traveling, many times kidnappers were caught on high way through search. The police need to come up with a better strategy on this because nigeria is crime prone, if u completely ban searches like this, it is like a free ride to criminals and kidnappers to ride and move freely.

So, I suggest the police stop sars from searching on high ways and make them only respond to operational calls and gun battle or tactical arrests.

The high way searches should be handled by joint task force by the mobile police force and military. Our high ways are extremely dangerious. We don't have enough security men in the country as we speak. So, since SARS has more rotten eggs, they should be stopped from high way searches or inter state searches. The state searches should be done road safety while high way should be done by mopol and soldiers with strict monitoring.

The efcc and icpc should be given enough man power to crack down on yahoo boys. Simple.

Guestlander:
So he doesn't like Trump and so what? Your president who can't denounce white supremacists on live TV.
You have to feel sorry for these black Americans.
Your president who can't even bring himself to say black lives matter!

lol, just our own president doesnt condemn the killings of christains by their fellow blacks and the killings of farmers by fulani herdsmen.

I av always said this, blacks africans should focus on fixing their own countries before demanding for better governance from another country where they ran to.

What they cant say in their own countries, they will be flexing muscles in another man's country.

boolee:
You really don't know the Powers of a GCFR.

Stop displaying your ignorance.

Nah SM wizkid power start and finish.

Indeed SM is a leveler for all Men.

Enjoy the ignorance.

lol, that was how powerful Egyptian president was before he was chased out of office by the masses. No one, I mean, no one on earth can stand the powers of those who control the masses. And musicians actually have the masses more than the politicians. That is why politicians use celebrities to gain the support of the masses.

I heard that the Tunisian president ran away from his country through backyard helicopter when the masses went gaga against him.

The biggest problem of the black race is fear. Wake up bro.

Workhardenough:
Oh! Pls...
Nigeria is like the eating capital of the world.
They spend about 60% of their monthly income on food, and yet refuse to farm.

Nigerians want to farm but insecurity and poor policy are discouraging!

The govt needs to make agriculture very attractive!

BoboNogoDie:
Stupîd expensive phones


Only a FOOLISH soul will buy any Tecno or infinix phone for more than 50k

When there are better alternatives like
Umidigi
Gionee
Xiaomi
Huawei
Oppo
Ulephone
Etc

Huawei high end phones are quite expensive. I got my Huawei p30 pro for 327k. Their p40 pro is over 400k

boookworm:
Sorry for the insult. I just don't like when people defend those SARS. They go about accussing people of being fraudsters just to extort money from them. They are now playing judge and executioner. If not that Nigeria is a lawless country do they even have the right to arrest a yahoo boy without evidence?

I'm not supporting them. Also we need to purge our system off the fraudsters abeg. Some of us are suffering today because of the so called Yahoo boys. I don't support sars and I can't support fraudsters..

Those fraudsters have duped my mother in law, my self, my wife and my sister at some times. So, I personally dislike internet fraudsters. U need to see how young men comfortably choose fraud as a way of life. It is crazy.

boookworm:
Oga shut up. You are irritating and must be incredibly stvpid for justifying killing. So because I don't want to part with my money I should be killed? A friend of mine who is a boutique owner was made to part with 70k just because he own a car. They pulled him over, search his phone and when nothing was found, they accused him of being a kidnapper and were threatening to open fire if he didn't make the transfer.. Before you justify the killings of young men in the country by SARS remember it can happen to anybody and your relatives are not left out.

Make ur post without insulting someone. This shows ur type of person. There must be cases like this surely and there are also cases like the one I posted up there.

IamD18:
South Africans loves us more than the way we love ourselves

Now u understand why I don't join others to fight for nigeria online

We have never loved our selves. This is also why I don't condemn racism from whites when blacks even do worse things to them selves.

RichDad1:
I’m wondering why this SARS menace is prevalence in the South. I’m not sure I’ve ever seen them tormenting anyone in the North
Curiously, they tend to also avoid areas dominated by Northerners in the South.
Our leaders in this part of this country are traitors.

The thing is northerners are not into internet fraud that much unlike in the south.

What I don't understand is how a yahoo boy is also trying avoid sars from scamming him when he also scams others. It doesnt make sense.

I have had encounters twice with police men who suspected I was into fraud. I am not, so I gave them liberty to search, when they finished searching, they found nothing, apologized and left.
If u know ur hands are not clean, kindly don't run or argue, na money dey are looking for. Pay them and move on. Some yahop boys are greedy. They stole from someome else and dont want someone else to steal from them. Not logical.

Our youths in the south must reduce this internet fraud of a thing and either learn to hold our leaders accountable.

I was in Abraka for a wedding, internet fraud is almost like a daily hustle there. Tufiakwa.

xamuell:
Too many tribes for one nation if you ask me. Instead of our diversity being a strength, it's more of a weakness.

It can never be a strength. It is only a strength to the political class and weakness to the masses.

It can only be a strength to all if we practice a political model used in the UK or the system used in the usa. Unitary federalism is terrible in a multi nation like ours.

xamuell:
In all willingness to learn, how can we do that? Pardon my ignorance

That of Nigeria is long gone. Tribalism will never allow the people to hold their leaders accountable.

oz4real83:
The people of a country will determine how a country goes. Switzerland is working because of her kind of people , if u take all Nigerian leaders to Switzerland and make them lead the Swiss people, they will provide quality leadership because the Swiss people will not sit, fold hands and watch bad governance being perpetuated like in Nigeria.

This is exactly what I have always said. Any country can succeed if the masses pay attention to issues about governance and they can hold their leaders strictly accountable.

Ikpemalueziokwu:
All this monies being mentioned sha.

Nigerian politicians are greedy. Even at the grassroot or tap root, they don’t have the interest of the citizens in mind. Na to go chop, if dem comot you, you fix someone else that keeps ‘chopping’ and pays you ‘godfather benefit’

No one who earns such money will support restructuring. Lie, lie! They make a lot of money from the resource rich southern Nigeria and the sweat of our tax money! That is why u hear them say Nigeria is an indivisible country.

U know that a typical black man only cares about him self and nothing more. While the Europeans went for a system that gave their tribes freedom, blacks have vowed to continue to mess with her people by wrongly unifying them all because the system benefit the very few elites.

okuta007:
You are right, IBB killed whatever was left of our values when he tacitly approved 419 in Nigeria with key beneficiaries being the likes of Ade Bendel, Fred Chijundu Ajudua and others in the late 1980’s and here we are today

The philosophy of “wealth without work” is now our national mantra - Nollywood glorifies it through her movies and when quality of work is required for money to be earned, they portray it as wickedness. When a landlord threatens to throw out a lazy tenant who is owing 6 months rent because he can’t get his ass of the bed and go roll wheelbarrow in the market or work as laborer to raise money to pay his rents - the landlord is called evil - this is why we are not progressing, the dignity of work as a societal value has been severely abused

The churches are not helping either- they have amplified this sorry state by preaching the miracle of easy wealth and prosperity

The traditional institutions are so compromised that the give chieftaincy titles to individuals with questionable characters and no legitimate source of income


To end corruption - we must abolish religious and traditional institutions!!!

Well said bro

sylve11:
As serious as this issue on ground, it's kinda funny at the same time. Lol. This country and her citizens ehnnnnn

Very hard to find a honest person in Nigeria when it comes to money. No matter who becomes the governor, president or any politician, it will be same story. We have a faulty value system centred on money which is so bad.

Everyone believes that money is the only way to happiness. Our value system is terrible.

I told someone that an average nigerian can sell his community in exchange for a house in london.

Sincerely, even if u make corruption a death penalty, we will still corrupt the system.

The way out is for another country to manage Nigeria. Simple.

johhhnn:
Poverty doesn't buy happiness either! No dy use all these stupid quote motivate yourself

But who told u he is poor?

He said money doesnt buy happiness and he didn't say poverty does? So why attack him? Happiness is a factor independent of your status.

Na becus many nigerians link money with happiness that is why almost all Nigerians are fraudulent and that is why our leaders are fraudulent too.

ignis:
This is a brilliant man thinking outside the box. Over dependency is modern day slavery.


Nigeria is in bandage today because she depends on other countries for virtually everything including the crude oil God graciously blessed us with.

Briliant one from you

BigSarah:
I don’t think it’s fair to generalize like I did but with Africans and the current look of things it’s fair statistics.
When it comes to advancement Africans (black Americans included) in general are spectators, you might think you’re at par with the top races to that I say congratulations sir.. whatever achievement a black person gets in the next 30yrs it’s old news in the Asian and white community. A&W community also have losers, they are just like any group of people a small amount of winners and a whole lot of losers..

I share similar sentiment with you bro. I think something is wrong with the black race and one of the major problems with the black race is the value system which is not centred on development but to live and enjoy now, now!!

This is also common among black Americans! It will interest u to know that once u put a typical black man in power or a place, all most of them will think about is how to exploit the system and make money to buy cars, build houses, carry women and have plenty of sex. It will also interest u that no black country as we speak has any research and solution for the next 30 years.

All majority of blacks wana do is to live now. There was a white colonialist who said something similar to this in many decades ago during colonialism. This is why it is so easy to capture a typical black man to betray his country.

Take for instance, a typical white man can make a typical black man to sell his community in exchange for a house in the UK and a car in the UK with money.
Naturally, blacks are among the people who betray their own countries. We steal from our own country and destroy it.

Also, blacks rarely think of solution to any problem. This is why while many Asians migrated to Europe and America to study and learn stuff, they most times wana return to their countries to replicate what they learnt... But a typical african want to study abroad, get a job, buy a car and enjoy life now, now!

Also, the principle of enjoying now, now is why blacks are always never interested in fixing their own problems but are always eager to migrate to any other country where they can live and work! They just care about now.

Why should a black man fix his health care when he can get health care from Indians, Europeans, Americans, etc? Why should a black man fix his roads when he can fly? Why should a black man fix his education when he can fly abroad to study?

Naturally, blacks dont think of development at all.

Golan007:
So you support white racists.

Yes becus blacks, we are hypocrites. We are accusing whites of same things we are doing to our selves. We need to love our selves first before demanding same from others.

This is what blacks do to them selves and still have mouth to call whites racists. Rubbish
