Nigeria doesn't need cash. It needs good governance

Gbam! This is the summation of the article. I know people will scream that the Financial Post is an IPOB publication.

Much worse,it would be the end of the brand called 'Trump' and definitely Congress is going Blue and no better candidate to win the election than Hillary,she has raised $65m for DNC to help those on the down ticket.This is more than enough reason for any Super Delegate to support her cause she knows the importance of keeping them in their seats unlike Sanders who has spent $200m on his own campaign alone and has raised nothing to support Democrats in Congressional races.

Right now I just want to see Sanders sent back to Vermont so we can focus on he who must not be named and make sure we bury him so deep he never has a chance to resurrect in American politics ever again.

ValerianSteel:
Trump will be murdered at the debates and am glad Hillary is hitting him hard already.

You are substituting reality for sentiment. Re examine the causes of the Nigerian civil war and ask yourself why USA and France withdrew their support for Biafra. It'll still be the reason they will support the north against the south.

(Northerners are easier to be yes men than the southerners. Who do you think institutionalized corruption in Africa?)

The army will wipe the entire Southeast and South South off the surface of the earth. The army, Air force, Navy and all other security forces will be given a 'shoot at sight order' to keep shelling the entire region until nothing moves again, yes, nothing.

No matter how it plays out, the northerners will immediately commence # ethnicCleansing against the # Millions of southerners in the North and the Southerners will also annihilate the # Few northerners in the South and a full scale war that is worse than the # Biafra cum # bokoHaram war will begin.

But after a deep thought, I told myself that Buhari was right to cancel his visit and take the Shame that comes with it

Not surprised, i knew it was not a matter of if but a matter of when.

The GOP elite has no choice. They either support Trump and come along for the ride OR they become irrelevant. I just hope Trump selects a calm and experienced hand as his VP.

Trump should have debated Bernie tho. Hilary would have died

Yet you people are not patient enough for the fire to be quenched or how its quenched but all you needed is renovations for a burning house that's yet to be quenched.how does that. work Use your head very well. You sound smart

pansophist:
Wow, your post made me retrospect about the poignant experience of being black in white land.

You know, its psychologically comforting to walk into a classroom, enter a bus, a shopping mall or any public places without the burden of being the odd one. Living in a foreign society, you carry the baggage of fighting stereotype, proving yourself, thinking your job refusal was due to your hue, and your rude boss treats you differently because of his hidden prejudice towards your kind.

After your brain has been exhausted by the vorfreude andrenaline rush of endorphines associated with migration, it begins to dawn on you that truly, there is no place like home. Social ostracism seems to be the norm for many immigrants, and it seems like there are seeds in the Afro culture that is fundamentally missing in many culture such as empathy, inclusiveness and has a morbid obsession for competition, which makes it extremely difficult to feel at home, especially in a culture with a foundational condescending view on African.

Before moving abroad, I never knew that a mundane thing as skin colour would be the determinant on how I will be perceived, treated and covertly affect direction of my economical position. Just like how I see different skin colours of people in Nigeria and never treat them differently, the opposite is true in many foreign countries. Standard of living is surely very good in the west, but its very unsatisfying for someone that is well breed in the African system communality, and you many times find yourself retrospecting about your past life at home, with all its pleasant memories.

many of the facile comments on this thread portrays inexperience of living abroad, especially if you are a conscious African. Where you are merely tolerated, so as to convince themselves and proof to the world that they ain't racist and got nothing about you. But in reality, your kind if filled within the lower hierarchy of the socio-economical ladder. Admittedly, you will find many black people in top position, but this doesn't invalidate the conventional truth, just like a broken clock is correct twice a day.

To sum it up, if material wealth and comfort is all you crave for, then surely, the west is for you. If you crave for something deep, meaningful and celestial, then relatively, its not for you. if you believe that life will be heaven after you moved abroad, then you probably will end of being a victim of the popular ''grass is greener on the other side'' maxim.

To be black and conscious in the west is to be in a constant state of rage." – James Baldwin
