What happened to those deals he secured in dubai, quatar? Has Emirates resumed flight to nigerian route yet? What of visa ban, has it been lifted now? Stop jubilating over deceit. Investors aren't daft. Dey play.
So you think that when deals are reached, you should start seeing results straight away, and it will be in the news and on nairaland and on your doorstep?

Do you know that for major projects, preliminary work can take up to two years before actual construction starts?

I didn’t read the rubbish you wrote, you dumbo! Only a fool will bold an entire write up, so next time write like a normal person.

Your poverty rates would have been in absolute terms if not for Igbos in your midst. If Nigeria’s 200 million population were made up of only Igbos or just Eastern Nigeria, the country will automatically be a middle income country with relatively high standard of living. It is your overbloated, uneducated, unproductive and poverty ravaged region that brings our average down.

You would have been worse than Somalia, Niger, or Eritrea should you stand alone as a country. Igbos are your saving grace. You should always worship them like your gods.
So why do you cannibals have to flee Igboland to survive?

The other day when Arewa Youths gave Igbos a one week ultimatum to depart the North, your Ohaneze went on all fours to beg them for mercy!

YOU BEGGED FOR MERCY BECAUSE YOU KNEW YOU WOULD STARVE WITHOUT THE NORTH.

Abia takes its name from the acronym for four of the state's most populated regions: Aba, Bende, Isuikwuato, and Afikpo (but Afikpo was later joined with a part of Enugu state to create Ebonyi state in 1996).
''The name Abia has multiple origins and meanings depending on the cultural and geographic context.

1. Hebrew origin: In Hebrew, Abia (אֲבִיָּה) is a variant of the name Abijah, which means "my father is Yahweh" or "Yahweh is my father."...

2. Nigerian Igbo origin: In the Igbo culture of Nigeria, Abia is a unisex name that means "Great One" or "God is great."''

Igbos are the ones doing you guys a huge favour because without them in the North, poverty rates over there won’t be at the current 80% but 99%! You better thank God for Igbos who are helping you.

Which areas of Nigeria look better than Igboland? Which areas of Nigeria has better MDGs than Igboland? Let me not even talk about Yoruba towns that look like relics from the dark ages.

It’s your frustration of struggling with life in a Hobbesian state that makes you hate on diaspora Nigerians. If you have any brain, you will know they’re not the cause of your perpetual misery.

Anyways, it’s not your fault, considering that even dogs in sane societies enjoy better amenities and living standards than you guys. Poor you😩😩

Without Nigerians you would starve in your millions.

The north were very prosperous before you Ibos went there..

They were traders before your naked forbears knew what trading meant.

They were prosperous and had writing and architecture when your people were cannibalising each other in the bush before colonial rule.

University of Limpopo did a research to find out why south Africans are against the idea of United States of Africa.

Most of South Africans said is because Nigerians are brainwashed and that will impact the economy of the United States of Africa.

Below is some of the proves that Nigerians are brainwashed :
Nigerians self hate themselves.
NIGERIANS thinks whites are superior to them.
Nigerians hate every thing from Nigeria and praise every thing European.
Nigerians support European soccer league than Nigerian soccer league.
NIGERIANS trust European hospitals than Nigerian hospitals.
NIGERIANS trust European schools than Nigerian schools.
NIGERIANS youth dream is to attend school overseas.
NIGERIANS dreams is to work overseas.
Nigerians prefers European or American cloth brand than Nigerian cloth brand.
Most NIGERIANS does not pay tax in Nigeria.
NIGERIANS buys items from overseas online.
NIGERIANS are not concerned about their government, everyman for himself.
NIGERIANS are not patriotic.
Nigerian soccer players dream is to play overseas.
NIGERIANS pay to watch overseas soccers than Nigerian soccer.
On this platform i see many post about European soccer league and i get surprised.
In south afraca to hear people talking about English soccer.
NIGERIANS thinks south africa economy is dominated by whites, which is not true.


South Africans prefers local products and does not want to go overseas, they prefer to remain behind and fix their country.
Most learners who passed high school very well declined scholarship to study in America.
Most soccer players declined offers to play overseas.

South Africa had apartheid and most whites are rich due to that. To resolve that in south africa whites cannot own more that 50% of a company. Those mtn, vodacom, dstv, etc , more than 50% is owned by black south africans and south african government via PIC holding.
Due to that whites are not dominating is south african economy.
THEY ARE 1,000000000000% CORRECT.

I don't know the juju the British colonialists did to Nigerians.

It's like they cast a spell on them to always regard whites as their superiors.

Even here on Nairaland, when a Nigerian marries a white woman, the mods make it front page and you will find Nigerians congratulating him and praising him etc.

It's shameful and tragic.

Nigeria is the only country where you will see a well paid banker or company owner with houses and cars selling of all his property to emigrate to the UK to work as a security guard or care assistant.

It's just baffling.

Other immigrants to the west etc go there either for university education or because they have nothing doing back home in terms of work and income.

Christianity EtcRe: The Idea Of Hellfire Is IRRATIONAL MADNESS by Reflect7:
Ken4Christ:
You didn't answer my question. Tell me how the world began without making reference to the Bible.
HOW THE HELL is anybody supposed to KNOW how the world began?

Get this: The ONLY person who knows for certain how the world began is the CREATOR HIMSELF.

No other person knows.

All that humans can do is speculate. The bible Creation story is just one out of thousands of Creation stories from around the world.

There is absolutely no reason whatsoever to claim it is the 'TRUE' story.

For starters it says the Earth and everything on it was made in a 7 day period. Does that sound reasonable to you?

And then some Christians to cover their embarrassment claimed the 7 days doesn't actually MEAN 7 days.

But they never actually say what it means! Is it 7 years? 7 months?, 7,000 years?, 700 years?, 7 million years? grin

So all we have are Creation myths or legends.

For instance, ''The Wassa people of Ghana have a myth of creation that traces creation back to Onyankopon - the great God of fullness and
satisfaction who, before creation, was the only being in existence. He created the world to become a companion to him, a wife. Added
to the world which he created were also spirits who would also keep him company. He ensured that the world was beautiful and he asked
the spirits to visit his wife from time to time. They will make their journey to the world using a long chain that springs from his throne.
He also gave the spirits permission to inhabit realities that are on the earth. Their major responsibility was to run errands for him.''


ajol-file-journals_415_articles_217834_submission_proof_217834-4945-535653-1-10-20211123.pdf

This is as much a valid Creation story as anything you've read in that bible.

Then we have the Akan Creation story:

''Among the Akan, God created the world in the order of the heavenly universe, the earth, rivers, waters, plants, animals, man. The order
that we find in creation affirms that man is at the center of the African universe, because we see that God creates every other thing
in preparation for man’s wellbeing in the world.''


ajol-file-journals_415_articles_217834_submission_proof_217834-4945-535653-1-10-20211123.pdf

So UNLESS God Himself comes down to Earth and explains how he created the world, all we can do is speculate. And there is nothing wrong with that. If God wanted us to know, he would have made the story clear to EVERYONE, and not just Romans.

Back up your claim that the original Bible is different from what we have. You should have a copy of the original and let's compare.
There is no ''original Bible''! There are original Hebrew texts from which the bible was compiled.

It's like there were (and still are) around a thousand different Hebrew scrolls, including some called the Nag Hammadi scrolls, and some Roman elite under the auspices of Emperor Constantine selected like 300 of them and put their contents into a book they named 'the bible', and called it ''the Word of God''!

That's all that happened!

The Romans claimed they were ''inspired by God'' to select which texts to include in their book, and which to exclude.

I mean, come on!

If you study the excluded texts, you can clearly see that they challenged the conventional narrative of the present bible, and showed the whites as oppressors whose time for justice would soon come.

Of course that was the last thing they wanted in the bible, so no inclusion of those texts!

Some excluded Hebrew texts even present Yahweh as a deranged entity that needs caging, and that the being called 'Satan' is actually the entity who did the right things for humans by trying to let them become intelligent and civilised, while Yahweh wanted to keep them down, ignorant, subservient and oppressed!

For me, knowing how devious these white people can be, those excluded texts are probably closer to the TRUTH than the included ones.

Also tell me what your traditionalist predicted about future events. And how many of their predictions has come to pass?
Mr Man, if you want to know about future events, your best bet is to visit your village's most respected traditional priest.

He will perform a divination session and tell you what he sees.

Are you aware that there existed multiple religious texts penned by the Hebrews, and it was Roman emperors who decided which texts would be included in their 'bible', and which texts would be excluded, all based on their political interests?

Are you aware that many excluded texts have totally different renditions of Creation and the end times?

Gosh ,you are just emotional, you not talking facts or reality.

There are available records and always traditional and researched history by locals that the Europeans indeed facilitated trade.

Eg,the Europeans bought Benin and ijebu made cloths, and sold in Congo amongst other things.
That is called Arbitrage, even if it were true. That’s very different from established trade networks between manufacturers and consumers and vice versa.

You also seem to not acknowledge that the white armies that did the black city destruction were composed majorly by other blacks.( in Nigeria particularly the Hausa and to a smaller extent the Yoruba).
Erm…. That’s what happens when your land comes under colonial domination. Your soldiers become THEIR soldiers.

Whether Africans pioneered sea faring or not evidence shows that atleast by the time of the European encounter they had lost it.

Do you know that the Portuguese fought along with your great Benin to attack other african cities.

Infact if not for the European canons Benin would have fallen from an igala invasion.
So essentially your great Benin was earlier saved by the the whites you love to hate.
It’s not about “hating whites”, you naive person.

It’s about identifying when whitey becomes your enemy and a threat to your collective civilisation.

Benin did not do anything different from a gazillion empires of the past who sought military assistance from their allies to defeat their enemies.

Plus the Benin kings, who were fiercely independent, rejected Portuguese blackmail that they should turn Christian in order to get military help, and they still went on to defeat their enemies with their own weapons.

it wasn't all rosy with Africans
Africans encouraged SLAVERY and
there were also devastating wars that destroyed African economies.

Unlike the whites they didn't have ship building technology and gun technology to invade far off lands to recoup their economy.

Infact on thing that enabled colonialisation was many African tribes eagerness to trade with the whites and acquire European products.

When you talk about years the whites stay as colonialist,you must understand that the didn't have the whole area under their grip at once,they spent several years pacifying different areas and quelling rebellion, before trying to build a political structure and development template,there needed to be a learning curve which took half of the time they acted as rulers.

South Africa was different because they settled in south Africa for several centuries unlike other areas especially West Africa.

In south Africa they were essentially ruling themselves not the blacks for a long time.
The whites did NOT “facilitate internal African trade with their ships”.

Why the hell would they do that?

To make life better for Africans?

What the hell is wrong with you?

It’s like you don’t want to accept they were your ENEMIES.

They came here and mass murdered your people and you are here talking jazz.

Do you know Europeans burned down and bombarded over 100 African cities?

You are very naïve regarding what they did here.

Plus Africans HAD SHIP BUILDING TECHNOLOGY.

In fact Africans PIONEERED seafaring.

How else do you think every other continent was populated?

You don’t know that every race of people are descended from ancient African settlers?

Africans explored the world thousands of years before Europeans did, and by the 1700s, many African regions had little use for seafaring when the Europeans, pressed by poverty, began seafaring and making guns to go and loot other lands.

When Christopher Columbus, the man who supposedly discovered America, got there, he saw black Africans already trading there and living among the native Americans.

They had arrived centuries earlier in their ships from places like Senegal and Mali.

And colonisation did not start because Africans were trading with Europeans. That’s a ludicrous assertion.

Colonialism started because greedy European leaders were desperate to loot the wealth of the then prosperous Southern Hemisphere, and began to mass produce firearms to do just that.

The unsuspecting south were caught unawares by the sheer ruthless greed of those pale skinned invaders and their firearms, and the rest is history.

I understand, my point is,this development we talking about it was also whites that provided the template.

Before colonialism, many tribes were destroying each other.
Eg the Nupe were in constant invasions against my town,we were embroiled in devastating wars,the whites actually put a stop to it,we must be humble enough to acknowledge this fact.

The whites also brought the Western style education, Medicare, technology, that greatly improved living, again we must acknowledge this.

The whites even made a lot of communities and tribes rich through trade.infact many communities willingly signed of their sovereignty eg the efik in Calabar.

Truly,it is a fact that they looted and did not develop much.

But indeed development was gradual,
After all after 60years of independence, there's still massive underdevelopment in Nigeria,

There's still alot to be done,the indigenous rulers have also developed the country slowly and gradually.

Africans should learn to be factual, and be humble enough to acknowledge that the Whites did alot of good too.
You have been miseducated.

If you had “devastating wars” in your town or village before the British invaded, it doesn’t apply to everywhere or most places in Nigeria.

Most places were PEACEFUL, and communities had long standing conflict resolution mechanisms to prevent anarchy.

Plus if warfare is a reason to colonise other societies, Europeans should have been the prime candidates for colonisation, even as recently as the last century, where they slaughtered over 100 million of themselves in the two white tribal wars they deceptively called “world wars”.

And the British destroyed and burned down our cities and towns, such as Great Benin City, which was described as being among the best planned and most beautiful cities on Earth in the 1600s, complete with palm oil-fuelled streetlights, underground drainage, and multi-storey buildings and public monuments.

A city where the Portuguese visitors reported that people did not build front doors to their houses because theft was unheard of!

Can you say that about anywhere in Nigeria today, with your British-influenced country?

Do you dare to build a house without a gate and barbed wired high fence, and windows with iron bars?

The Benin empire exchanged ambassadors with Portugal in the 1500s, traded with numerous countries in Europe and beyond, so this idea that we needed England in order to have a ‘development template’ is FALSE.

Development was gradual,these things might have happened eventually with white rule,the issues are that the major tribes that populate AFRICA and in a specific case NIGERIA have very weak subservient approach to the world.

This always puts Africa in danger,check history most of the tribes that fought hard white invasions were mostly the smaller groups called minorities.

The major tribes loved to parley and stay subservient to whites
Why is it so hard for you people to understand what COLONIALISM means?

A colonialist power is in your country to BENEFIT HIS COUNTRY, not yours.

He is there to LOOT your resources for the express purpose of ENRICHING his country.

He is not there to build your country.

Quite the opposite.

If the British were not looters and thieves, Nigeria would have been a developed country like South Africa by the 1940s at least.

The only reason South Africa is developed today is that the white colonisers regarded it as THEIR country, and so instead of siphoning 95% of annual export earnings from the natural resources like gold, diamonds etc, as happened in other colonies, they reinvested the export earnings in the country and built its infrastructure, industries, etc.

In Nigeria and elsewhere, the opposite was the case, which was why at independence, Nigeria was a big, fat BUSH that still requires basic infrastructure built even 60 years after they left.

Because they did nothing but loot.

And to imagine that that was gonna change if they had stayed longer, just shows deep naivety on your part.

What 99% of you don’t know is that we had our technology and trade networks before the European invasion.

The area known as Nigeria today was a major centre of soap, textile, and glass manufacturing, and Portugal had to ban the importation of Nigerian-manufactured soap in the 1850s in order to protect their fledgling soap manufacturing industry.

An Englishman commented in the 1860s that textiles mass produced in western Nigeria were of a higher quality than what Manchester, then the centre of the English textile industry, had to offer.

Intra-African trade was at a very high level, and Igbos traded with the Ashantis and Congolese, while Yorubas traded with lands as far as Mali and Nubia.

The colonialists DISRUPTED this intra-African commerce and turned their colonies into cash crop producers for export to Europe.

That was what destroyed the African economy and led to mass poverty among a people who were very prosperous prior to colonial invasion.

Today, the intra African free trade agenda of the AU, ECOWAS etc is all about rebuilding those destroyed networks and end African poverty, and it is succeeding, and will lead to African prosperity.

Asking to be ‘recolonised’ by Europeans is a function of an ignorant, brainwashed condition, and is truly pitiful.

What is your source of authority? You can’t just make claims without any proof.
My source of authority is AFRICAN RELIGION AND SPIRITUALITY.

I know you have all been brainwashed to demonise and ignore it, but if you visited your most respected village traditional priest and asked him QUESTIONS about our presence here, his answers would MIRROR what I am stating here.

Same as if you visited a traditional priest in India, China, Mexico, Japan.. the priests of the OLD WORLD PRE-JUDAIC knowledge, of which AFRICA was the centre point and knowledge fountain.

They will ALL tell you that we are IMMORTAL and transit to the Afterlife as a matter of course, irrespective of our religious beliefs or lack thereof.

Even modern science is belatedly learning the truth about universal salvation, ie that ALL are saved, via:

1) The testimonies of millions of people who have had a Near Death Experience (NDE).

2) The revelations of those who have undergone Hypnotic Regression Therapy, where they reveal under deep hypnosis, their experience in the REAL WORLD prior to being born here.

I suggest a book titled ‘Journey of Souls’ by Michael Newton.

In fact, YOU can be put under deep hypnosis and made to reveal your pre-birth life in ‘heaven’ prior to being born, and even reveal details of your previous lives on Earth, including your former names. All the information is stored in your subconscious. Many, if not most of us, have lived several lives on this Earth.

A ‘veil of forgetfulness’ is placed on us prior to being born, so that the memory and vast knowledge we have doesn’t interfere with our current experience.

The site below has over 5,000 testimonies from people all over the world who have had an NDE, and you can learn a LOT there.

The Moon and Sun are here under the firmament dome with us and are luminaries. No human ever landed on the moon and nothing has ever launched out of this earth to anywhere. All UFO are spiritual beings and are here with us.
Precolonial Africans knew this.

I saw an interview on twitter were white elires were talking about how they plan recolonizing Africa again,They said they are tired of our people mass migrating to their land that its posing a security threat to them now they wanna help us recolonize Africa.
They can't try it.

They will be slaughtered.

This is not 1886.

Only ignorant, unschooled, right-wing white racists discuss this garbage.

Ordinary Niger Republic sent France packing, but somehow they will ''re-colonize Africa''.

Rubbish.

Even though this sounds like a conspiracy theory, I will not be surprised if they follow through.

It's INSANE how shambolic and visionless black nations are. No drive for progress. Only greed, looting and wickedness.
OH SHUT UP.....

Without AFRICANS coming to power in the 1960s, YOU WOULD BE AN ILLITERATE RURAL PEASANT.

In 1960, literacy rate for Nigeria was 7%, after an uninterrupted 70 years of colonial rule and looting of our resources.

Today, after barely 60 years of independence, literacy rate is around 70%, courtesy of indigenous govt's investment in thousands of public schools.

IS THAT NOT PROGRESS?

Today you can decide you want to move to UK or Canada, and are sure you will do well there. Why? Because a ''visionless black nation full of wickedness and greed'' educated you and exposed you.

Could your farm-stuck, illiterate grandparents under British colonial rule do that?

Did they know what an airport was or where Canada was?

Do you want to compare the infrastructure we have today with what we had in 1960?

In 1960 everywhere was bush. Cars were only for the super rich, and there was no single power station. Malnutrition was rife.

The problem with most of you is that you have ZERO FCKING IDEA how terrible life was on this land before independence.

That's why you wake up every day talking RUBBISH instead of taking stock of the PROGRESS you've made, and be inspired to do more.
