Sp1ritHusband:SHUT UP. That's a Caucasian white guy. |
ayo2008:Illiterate. What treasury is he looting? Where did he loot treasury? Did you see him near any govt house or Aso Rock? You say he is a businessman? And so? Can't you be a business man like him so that Nigeria can favour you too? LAZY HE-GOAT. |
justtoodark:How much is the true amount? |
Now my question to Kemi Badluck is: Nigeria's annual budget is £23 billion. UK annual budget is £1.2 Trillion. If you, KEMI are in BRITAIN and you are interested in telling ''THE TRUTH'', why not tell them to RETURN OUR MONEY? THEY OWE US 1 TRILLION POUNDS, MINIMUM. If the excuse is that politicians will eat the money, oya let them send the money DIRECT TO ORDINARY NIGERIANS BY 'alerts'. This is 2024. Easy peasy. What say you, Kemi? Madam Truth Teller. They did not allow you to tell THAT truth, did they? |
I asked AI ChatGPT: ''Give me a ballpark figure for how much Britain has profited from Nigeria since she invaded in the 1860s or thereabouts.'' AI Response: ................. A ballpark figure can be attempted by looking at historical economic records and extrapolating. Estimates for how much Britain gained from Nigeria through direct resource extraction, taxation, labor exploitation, and trade vary significantly, but they can be contextualized in billions or even TRILLIONS OF POUNDS when adjusted for inflation over time. Here's a rough estimate based on known data and scholarly insights: 1. Colonial Era (1860s–1960s): Resource Extraction: During the colonial period, Nigeria was a major source of palm oil, tin, and other resources. In the early 20th century, Nigeria's export revenues were tens of millions of pounds annually. Adjusting for inflation, Britain's gains from Nigeria during the colonial period could range from £100 billion to £500 billion in today's money. Taxation and Labor Exploitation: Forced labor and taxes contributed significant, albeit harder-to-quantify, amounts. These might add another £50 billion to £100 billion. 2. Post-Colonial Influence (1960s–present): Oil Wealth: Nigeria became a significant oil producer post-independence. Multinational oil companies, many of which are British or have strong ties to the UK, have extracted and exported vast quantities of oil. Estimates suggest that Nigeria has lost more than $400 billion (approx. £320 billion) to corruption and illicit financial flows, much of which ended up in Western financial systems, including Britain's. Continued Exploitation: Through unequal trade agreements, foreign corporate control, and financial outflows, Britain's indirect gains from Nigeria since 1960 could amount to another £100 billion to £300 billion. Total Estimate: Taking both colonial and post-colonial periods into account, Britain's total economic gains from Nigeria might conservatively fall between £500 billion and £1 TRILLION, when adjusted for inflation and including illicit financial flows. This figure is speculative and highly dependent on the scope of activities considered, but it provides a ballpark estimate of the scale of exploitation and economic gain. Source: AI ChatGPT |
Mindlog:So why hasn't Kemi BadLuck asked Britain to return the looted funds? She can ask them to send 'alerts' to the accounts of ordinary Nigerians, ie BLESS ordinary Nigerians with mass electronic cash transfers. The British hold literally TRILLIONS OF POUNDS made from Nigeria since the 1860s. Is it because she knows they will KICK HER BLACK BUTT OUT for suggesting such an 'outrageous' thing? |
OP SAID ''NIGERIANS REACT''. YOU MEAN IPOB REACTS? YOU ARE WORTHLESS TRAITORS LIKE KEMI BADLUCK. SO NOBODY CARES WHAT YOU THINK. |
Excellent article. If Britain wishes to break off trade relations with Nigeria and Africa, then they can go ahead and make Kemi Badmarket their Prime Minister. Just last month their foreign minister David Lammy was in Nigeria looking for investment opportunities. Indian, French, German presidents last month all visited Nigeria to talk business. Britain after Brexit, needs trading partners like yesterday.. We'll see what happens. |
A white guy born and bred in Nigeria says Nigeria is the best country in the world, and that he has ZERO INTENTION of leaving the country to settle anywhere else in the world. Before you know it, he entered pidgin. Kemi BadLuck, you see your life? Oyinbo loves your fatherland more than you. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o309kGWWl8g |
Mugu44:She is not avoiding him. She's avoiding you. |
swaggerjack:At Independence in 1960, you were a JUNGLE with a 5% literacy rate, ZERO power stations, ZERO industries, ZERO infrastructure, and ZERO hope. OK? What ''middle class'' are you referring to? What universities did they attend? Which schools? Show us the universities and schools your ''middle class'' attended during colonial subjugation, you brainwashed thing. Did they have light? Name the power stations the British built for the ''middle class''. Do you know our first power station was Kainji Dam, commissioned in 1964? A FOOTPATH LED TO YOUR VILLAGE IN 1960. Cars going there would park at the nearest road, maybe 20 kilometres away, and then you'd walk through the bush for a whole day to reach your village. That's how it was. Do you think the British built roads? You think they built infrastructure and public schools? THE ONLY REASON you are nor a wretched illiterate village palmwine tapper like your grandad today, is because of INDEPENDENCE IN 1960. That was when WE, BLACK NIGERIANS, transformed this country from the UNDEVELOPED JUNGLE the thieving British left us after looting our resources dry for a century to enrich their land, to a thriving, educated, fast-developing nation with substantial and on-going infrastructural development. If you don't know your history, I will TEACH YOU your history. Blasted ingrates. Today we have 300 universities in 60 years of Independence. How many did Britain build in their 100 years here? ZERO. And these are the same people you go running to, to insult your leaders, because you are stupid and you don't think. |
Lesson For Kemi BadLuck, Chief De-Marketer of Nigeria. Watch how AFRICAN FOOTBALLER OF THE YEAR, ADEMOLA LOOKMAN, YOUR JUNIOR, brought glory to his fatherland at the award ceremony by donning his traditional NIGERIAN wear and GREETING NIGERIANS IN YORUBA LANGUAGE, despite never having lived in Nigeria in his life. Can you ever do such, Madam Kemi the Oyinbo pleaser? Will your white husband even allow you to wear your traditional wear? Will the Conservative party let you speak Yoruba for even 1 second on British TV? NAAAAAAAHH... But they are happy to hear you trash Nigeria daily, aren't they, Madam Badluck traitor? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lfv_Y2G7IZw |

Nigeria Re-opens It's Embassy In North Korea Nigeria reopens embassy in North Korea after nearly four-year pandemic closure Arrival of charge d’affaires makes Nigeria only the second African nation with active diplomatic presence in Pyongyang Only 2 African countries have a presence in Pyongyang. Egypt and Nigeria. https://www.nknews.org/2024/12/nigeria-reopens-embassy-in-north-korea-after-nearly-four-year-pandemic-closure/ Nigeria has reopened its embassy in Pyongyang after closing the mission in early 2021 due to the pandemic, making it only the second African country with an active foothold in North Korea. The two countries have continued diplomatic relations in the interim years through the still-open DPRK Embassy in Abuja, though accusations have emerged of attempted weapons trading between the two countries in violation of sanctions. The Russian Embassy in Pyongyang stated in a Facebook post on Dec. 12 that Patrick Imodu Imologhome is Nigeria’s charge d’affaires and that he had “recently arrived” in Pyongyang. Friend of Nigeria: President Kim Jong Un https://www.aljazeera.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/2021-02-10T212709Z_364176505_RC2XPL94BC7Y_RTRMADP_3_NORTHKOREA-POLITICS.jpg Russian Ambassador to the DPRK Alexander Matsegora reportedly met Imologhome on Dec. 11 and discussed “current issues concerning the Korean Peninsula.” Matsegora offered to help the Nigerians get resettled in Pyongyang after their extended absence. The Chinese Embassy also reported that Ambassador Wang Yajun met Imologhome on Dec. 13, though the report only mentioned discussions of China-Nigeria ties. Nigerian President Bola Tinubu appointed Imologhome as charge d’affaires back in April, according to the country’s foreign ministry, but neither side has reported details about an ambassador. Imologhome previously served as a minister at the Nigerian Embassy to the Vatican. His arrival ends a closure of the Nigerian Embassy in Pyongyang that lasted about three years and nine months, after the last diplomats left Pyongyang in March 2021. This followed a general exodus of most embassies due to North Korea’s strict COVID-19 rules that forbid inbound travel and restricted imports, leading to shortages and reduced quality of life for diplomats. Pyongyang didn’t start to allow foreign diplomats back into the country until early 2023. Egypt is the only other African country with an active embassy in North Korea, its charge d’affaires remaining in Pyongyang throughout the pandemic. North Korea appointed its ambassador to Nigeria, Jon Tong Chol, in early 2018, and he has remained in Abuja throughout the pandemic. Ambassador Jon has held frequent meetings with Nigerian foreign ministry officials in Abuja in recent years, though most public reports have lacked details about their discussions. He signed a memorandum of understanding on cooperation in public health in 2020. Though Nigeria claimed compliance with U.N. sanctions measures requiring all North Korean workers in the country to be expelled by late Dec. 2019, some health workers reportedly did not return home. Jon also called for increasing parliamentary exchanges during a meeting with the leader of Nigeria’s ruling All Progressives Congress party in late 2023. U.N. Panel of Experts reports in recent years have suggested that Pyongyang has used Nigeria as a staging ground or home base for conducting business in violation of sanctions, including weapons deals. A Panel report in late 2022 said an unnamed U.N. member state had provided evidence that the DPRK’s Haegumgang Trading Corporation attempted “to broker the sale of approximately $3.5 million worth of military-related equipment to Nigeria.” North Korea has also reportedly employed the help of a Nigerian influencer to launder illicit funds, while DPRK government-connected companies are alleged to have ignored sanctions to work with Nigerian companies in more money-laundering schemes. Pyongyang signaled interest in developing economic ties by sending then-vice cabinet premier Ri Ryong Nam to Abuja for high-level talks in 2019. Edited by Alannah Hill |
Corrections:Kemi Badenoch attended International School Lagos. I think the fee is over N300,000 Naira a term. She is a niece of former VP Yemi Osinbajo and lived in VI. Her dad's a doctor and mum a Prof. She has never suffered ONE SECOND of hardship in Nigeria. Yet she went to London and lied she was trekking miles to fetch water and dodging armed robbers in Victoria Island. |
Bookhub:Keep lying to yourself in order to feel inferior, since you are cursed to feel that way. Their population is 1.4 billion by the way, not ''2 billion''. Liar. - The 2023 Global Hunger Index gives India a rank of 111 out of 125 countries. This indicates a hunger severity level of 'serious' for the country. Should I show you a queue at the embassies in India of people DOING JAPA? You will weep. TRUTH IS PEOPLE ARE SUFFERING IN INDIA, AND IT'S NOT JUST POVERTY. OPPRESSION OF THE 200 MILLION ''UNTOUCHABLES'' IS JUST AS BAD, IF NOT WORSE THAN POVERTY. Prime Minister Rishi Sunak had A LOT OF MATERIAL HE COULD HAVE CALLED UPON to attack India with, but chose NOT to. WHY? BECAUSE HE USED HIS BRAIN TO KNOW IT WAS COUNTER-PRODUCTIVE, AND THAT INDIA'S PROBLEMS ARE FOR INDIANS ALONE TO SOLVE, BECAUSE INDIA IS A SOVEREIGN COUNTRY. SIMPLE. Nigerians need to DROP the COLONIAL MENTALITY which tells them they can solve their problems by reporting them to White people. Wake up and stop being stupid. |
Noblechykk:GO AND CRY MORE ON A WHITE MAN'S LAP. BOMBOY. |
Noblechykk:DOES YOUR BRAIN WORK AT ALL? What does blabbing your big fat mouth in London ACHIEVE? Tell us!! It never occurs to your thick skulls that NOBODY CARES what's going on in Nigeria. So by announcing your problems to the world at every turn, you're just an object of ridicule. You're like a man that has a quarrel in his house and comes out daily in the street shouting his family problems to the world. Nobody cares. |

Noblechykk:Oh. Ok... So you KNOW that the whites know what is happening here. So why did KEMI BADENOCH not attack the WHITES for colluding with local Nigerians here to fleece our country? Why is she not attacking them for storing our looted wealth, plus the resource wealth they stole from Nigeria over a 100 year period? Why is she insulting NIGERIANS when she is in the land of people you say KNOW MORE about what's going on in Nigeria than us? Isn't it THEM that she should be holding to task? |

These British are the same people that invaded and burned down the great Benin City in 1897, a city described by Portuguese and Dutch visitors as being one of the most beautiful cities in the world in the 16th and 17th centuries, with a palace that was as massive as a city. Benin city had underground drainage, and street lights 300 years before London. The British invaded and bombarded the city and destroyed the great palace, despite fierce resistance from the people of Benin, forcing the Oba to flee into exile. They carted away treasures worth BILLIONS OF DOLLARS in today's market. British troops after destroying Oba's palace, 1897. On the floor are bronze plaques to be carted off. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/f/f0/Interior_of_Oba%27s_compound_burnt_during_siege_of_Benin_City%2C_1897.jpg/640px-Interior_of_Oba%27s_compound_burnt_during_siege_of_Benin_City%2C_1897.jpg Fast forward to 2024. You have a problem, you go and announce it to the British, who have by now brainwashed you to worship them, and see them as angels, reporting all your problems to them. You're pathetic. |
Noblechykk:You have no sense. Ok, now that you have told your white gods your problems, what's changed? Problems gone? Ewu. Pray they don't use the information you are feeding them to sabotage you more. People with no sense. |
Noblechykk:Why don't you go out on the street and tell everyone you see about your family issues? Why aren't you telling them ''the truth'' about your family? Do you know it's only MAD people that do that? Your heads are not correct. Learn from the Indians and the Asians. They have the common sense to know when to talk and when to shut up. They know that Europeans don't give two shiits about anyone who isn't white. They KNOW THAT based on history. YOU should know that from your own history, but your heads are too blocked by white worship to even remember that history or realise that these are the same folks who enslaved your ancestors and invaded your lands, burned down your cities, mass-murdered your ancestors, looted your land for a century via colonialism to enrich themselves. Your treasures are still sitting in their museums on public display!!!! So what are you going there to tell them about Nigeria? So that they will do what? Cry for you? You are so thoughtless! All they do is laugh behind your backs and call you simpletons. |
Sheuns:Don't mind them! Hopeless things. You have internet. You have digital connectivity. You have AI. You have access to all kinds of apps and platforms you can use to make money. You have skills you can learn for free online and start a business with NO MONEY, or very little money. SO MANY OPTIONS that Nigerians even in the early 2000s not to mention 1980s and 90s could only dream of. I swear if I was a youth today in Nigeria I would not even be looking for job. How much will they pay me? Rubbish. I'd be online making DOLLARS. There was one video I saw on YouTube. One Japanese guy entered Nigeria, and flew in Air Peace, and used his phone to record the entire process, airport, flight, lunch during the flight, etc, etc, with commentary on his experience. Omo. Over 1 million views on YouTube. That video must have earned him at least 10,000 dollars. He spent less than 2 days in Nigeria, and flew out. I mean, come on. |
