PoliticsRe: Why Is EKO Called 'Lagos'? Is Anywhere In Portugal Named Onitsha Or Akure? by Reflect7: 5:17pm On Sep 21, 2025
See how proud Afro-Americans are to identify with Africa while so-called “Africans” in Nigeria are desperate to be white.

Lai Mohammad..the Benin settlers gave the name Eko, meaning camp or tents.

Yorubas don't have name for Lagos..you only have names like iragbiji Ogbomosho Oshogbo olokonla grin
Those are BEAUTIFUL sounding names.

We know the colonialists programmed you to look down on African names and everything African.

That’s why you think your post is “funny”, but it’s actually a sad commentary on your mentality as a people.

Tragic.

You are gradually becoming a lunatic with this your obsession with white people.
How's Hyderabad anything white for goodness sake?!! It's named after a Persian. The indians who own the place don't think anything about the name. There are places in the same indian which still retain the names foreigners gave them just because they reflect a part of their history either good or bad. Wellington is an important area in India. Why have they not changed the name.

The Portuguese named Macao is still Macao to this day. The Arab influence is still very preeminent in the Swahili gulf of Tanzania and Kenya. The word Swahili itself is Arabic.

The name Benin up till tomorrow is Yoruba. Why didn't the binis change it back to igodomigodo? Some things are not as important as some of you think. Why did the indians wait until the 90s before changing Bombay to Mumbai?

Where's white worship in that. Yorubas till kingdom come will still call Lagos Eko and ensure that Yoruba is an official language of the state. Even instructions on their trains are in Yoruba as well.

Wonders shall never end. How's citing Hyderabad as an example white worship? This man is going mad. grin Was Mohammed white?

One more time, tell us why the indians have not changed the name Hyderabad to an Indian name since according to you, oh wise one, they hate anything foreign.
grin grin
MUMBAI IS THE CAPITAL and largest city.

Why don’t you tell us WHY the British-named Bombay was changed to MUMBAI, the name of a Hindu Goddess?

Nobody said Indians changed every name to Indian.

But their MOST IMPORTANT CITY AND CAPITAL?

They could not tolerate it having a colonial name.

You are asking why they waited till 1995 to change it?

What a weak point.

Their colonial hangover began to FADE then, that’s why.

When will YOURS fade?

Never?

PoliticsRe: Post-colonialism Prosperity: Can Nigeria Imitate USA? by Reflect7: 3:01pm On Sep 18, 2025
The writer, like a typical Nigerian, is so wowed and impressed by the “bright lights” of America, that he forgets that country was built on the enslavement of his ancestors, with 400 years of free labour. Not to mention the amount of foreign invasions and theft of foreign resources America has engaged in for a century, through assassination of foreign leaders like Patrice Lumumba of the Congo, installation of Mobutu Sese Seko etc.

The writer needs to see America for what it really is, not this blushing schoolgirl portrayal.

nedu666:
Beg you for what exactly? Sunlight. So you believe the west will stop making progress or slow down in innovation because of Africa. Joke is on you dude
They cannot “innovate” from thin air.

It’s their access to cheap African raw materials that allows them to inject capital and “innovate”.

The Cobalt produced by the DRC is what enables every computer to function, for example.

The DRC can literally collapse the world economy by blocking access to its cobalt.

That’s the POWER of Africa.

African lithium is expected to power futuristic technologies of all kinds. In the old days they would get Africans to ship it to them raw, for them to “innovate” with it.

But Africa today says NO.

If you want African lithium, build lithium battery plants in AFRICA.

No more raw materials.

Instead of running to USA , to respect their laws and form exposed, why not stay in NIGERIA and vote the right leaders that will make NIGERIA paradise. Instead they support failures like TINUBU and BUHARI, and when they milk the system via corrupt practices, they will send their children to America for a better life, while suppressing their own citizens via tribalism.

Trump should focus on NIGERIA., just 2weeks and you will understand.
You are living in a very different world from the Trash America has now become under this Criminal Dictator and Corrupt Thug you call Trump.

This fascist destroying America, snatching innocent people off the streets and throwing them out of the country without due process.

Go to Florida. Empty.

Tourism has crashed as people avoid America because of this lunatic you call Trump.

He has deployed military troops to occupy Washington DC, Chicago and other Democrat run cities while ignoring the most crime-ridden Republican white cities like Jackson Mississippi.

A racist to the core targeting black and brown people for persecution, and you Nigerians are saying What?

No they are not.

Nigerians are in Ghana and nobody is touching them.

The govt there loudly condemned all such protests, and refused police cover for the protesters.

Their president is always in Abuja and has Nigerian blood or something.

He might even have been installed by Nigeria remotely, because Nigeria rules West Africa.

Only in NIGERIA is a distinction made between Manufacturing and ''Assembly''.

In the REAL WORLD outside Nigeria, if you ask somebody, ''Was this thing manufactured or was it assembled?", they'll call you crazy....

Because there is ZERO DIFFERENCE between manufacturing a thing, and assembling it.

They mean the EXACT SAME THING.

In the US, car manufacturing plants are known as ''Car Assembly Plants''.

Why? Because there is NO DIFFERENCE between manufacturing and assembly.

Dino "Ferrari" Melaye loves his social media bragging rights so much that he forgot the tax man is watching all that boasting.

Anyway a man who has looted so much money will have no problem at all coming up with $120K USD to setting this small irritant tax bill.

We look forward to the next social media song that Dino Ferrari will drop once he has paid off this minor bill to the tax man.

Fantastic news. Brazil has a huge Nigerian diaspora who would love to come here. This will also encourage Brazilian investors to come to Nigeria and invest. Brazil is a very big, important country with a large economy and industrial base, so this is very good news.

Now we know why Tinubu travels around.

He can see lying down what his critics cannot see standing from the tallest Iroko tree.

If Peter Obi was president, this wouldn't have happened, because he doesn't believe in ''foreign junketing'' like the President, to use his words.

Without the “prehistoric” achievements of Africans, including the invention of Writing, Mathematics, Architecture, Medicine, Iron Smelting, Mining of minerals, the Calendar, Law, Public administration etc etc, without these and many other Black African inventions, You and the rest of the world would be living in caves.

You that loved yourself, what have you done with the power given to you? How has it reflected in the growth of the country?
Other countries that are developed, are they not humans like you?
Why are we not as developed as South Africa and other northern African countries? Do they have 2 heads?
The truth is bitter.
You are not as developed as South Africa because the white colonialists regarded South Africa as their home, and settled their people there in large numbers. So they did not steal and loot all the resources of the country, but instead began to build infrastructure, universities, power plants, Industries, from the 1880s.

Such that by the 1950s, South Africa was well developed.

In Nigeria, it was the complete opposite.

The British built a big fat Zero in Nigeria. All they did was loot.

That’s why in 1960 Nigeria was a bush. Zero infrastructure, zero industries, zero power plants, zero universities.

Meanwhile South Africa’s first universities were established in the 1880s.

That is why Nigeria and the rest of Africa are playing catch-up to South Africa - Unlike them, We only began to develop in the 1960s after independence.

Look: Independence brought you out of the bush, so thank your lucky stars ✨ for it.
