Then we go online and flaunt all the expensive cars and phones we have, all these things are not even invented by us, we contribute absolute nothing to the world

When I go to the street, I look at how nigeria look, Most of them look malnourished,

People struggling from the day they were born till the day they die

It does not have to be super expensive, Just a well paved roads with sidewalk and an underground drainage system, And this folks make it seem like it is a rocket science!!

China are building a whole city in just a year

And we are here can't even build a modern city after over 71 year of independence, And you want me to believe we have high IQ?

Having IQ is your ability to solve problems, Which we failed at it woefully!!

Below is a village in The U.S, what is hard in achieving this??

This is soooo brutal!

The truth is that everyone doesn't have the same mental capacity; I found out in the university. In school, some of us read to learn.

However, I was shocked when I met a course mate who could cram the text of an entire page of a textbook and reproduce it without looking at the page word for word. I am not kidding. God knows that I cannot do that. He graduated with 4.23. He nearly made a first class.

Meeting that guy exposed me to the fact that there are things one can never be, no matter how much one tries. Humans are not the same. Humans don't have the same mental capacity. Genetic makeups differentiate races. For Black Africans to come close to Caucasians in mental capacity, we have to invest massively in education.

The thing dey pain me bro

What is hard in achieving this simple street view??

Even the most overhyped and overpriced places in Abuja/Lagos/Portharcourt/Kano don't look anywhere close to this!!

SmartPolician:
Black Africans have low IQ. We can choose to deny that, but facts are facts. The Black Africans lack innovation. That explains why Nigeria hasn't made appreciable progress since 60 years after independence.

I like people like you, straight to the fact!

This is a fact that 99% blacks don't wanna accept, Their only comeback is "They steal our resources" which still solidify the fact that they outsmart us at everything even at what we know how to do best "STEALING"

Then we get angry when other races call us monkey, Like bro we actually live like animals!!

Christistruth03:
Nigerians really need to develop their own indigenous Road building Technology

There was road building and Paving Technology in Ile Ife during the days of Luwo the Only female Ooni in the 15th Century because we were told she made them pave Ile Ife from top to bottom but the Technology seems to have been abandoned along the line

Traditional Rulers should be able to organize the locals to build roads even if it is only broken Rocks and Gravel that they use

Some Communities have waited for over 50 years for the Government to pave their roads and they are still waiting

Another thing Is we feel inferior to other races, That's why we like everything that is foreign we call it being "POSH" and call our own "LOCAL"

No successful race think like this! It's sad!

This is not only in Nigeria, This applies to every African countries,

Anywhere you see a white person, There are 97% chances that the place will be organized and clean

But anywhere you see a Black person, There are 100% chances it's gonna be a slum

Even far out of African down to the carribeans which is mostly habited by black people, It's also sh*thole, Even the most dangerous and dirty part of America are where black people live, they call it "HOOD

Kingosytex:
The streets are like that because the residents want it to be like that
Just take for instance, here on Nairaland some fools are paid a token to spew all sorts of lie and defend the indefensible, there are so many brain dead people around who are comfortable with maintaining the status quo.
I gave an example with Qatar some time ago and some ignorant folks started spewing trash of how Qatar isn't as populated as Nigeria. Is the problem really population? These looters you all call leaders will squander the resources of Qatar in a twinkle of an eye; it's not about population.

I swear bro, We can't get shit together, Then we go to another man's country and scream racism, Bro go back to your county!!

We black people needs a reality check!

MatrixReloaded:
Ask Your grand parents

Because they failed, You also want to follow that path?? You can be the CHANGE

It's so sad that over 10 trillion dollars has been stolen since the inception of Nigeria

That huge amount could transform any serious country from the worst to the best in just a decade, Are we really cursed as a people? I've been to other Africa streets too, They also suffer from the same bullsh*t, What is wrong with us as a race?

Someone said if Nigerians Moved to America and Americans move to Nigeria, In just 5 years America will be messed up and Nigeria will become a thriving nation

Are we cursed?

This is what New York look like in the 1870s

And it's pretty sad that most Nigeria street don't look as organized as this even after 153 years apart!

I'm starting to believe recently that we actually do have a low IQ!

We need a IQ test, Anyone whose IQ is below 100 should not be allowed close to governance!!

We can't be living like this in this modern day

Why are we not building cities? Even most part of Lagos and Abuja still look like crap!!

Nigeria has the highest population of black people in the world, It's literally the home of black people!!

And it's saddening that it look like this in 21st century?

I've been to 15 states in Nigeria my whole life, and one thing I always notice is, Untarred roads, Lack of drainage system, Lack of proper planning e.t.c

Which always make me curious, Why does everywhere in Nigeria look like it got hit by a nuclear bomb? Why? Why don't we have modern streets and cities!!

Since the inception of Nigeria, I Don't think we have built any city, And please don't even mention Banana island, It's a piece of crap!!

It's sad that only about 3% of Nigeria is actually developed and the other 97% is just straight up piece of trash!!
