Leave them let the fight. That's what men do
When they are through they'll go their way and treat their wounds

Would you be so 'understanding' if those were black Africans fighting at the AFCON?

Goodlyhrt:
So wait, na because you see one old Chinese or Cambodian painting wey the people skin paint brown, you come conclude say black people rule those empires? Bros, abeg shift.

Ancient artists no get Photoshop na. dem just dey use natural pigment wey dey around. If na dark mud dem get, na wetin go show for everybody skin. That no mean say dem be Africans. E just mean say dem paint with wetin dem get that time.

And who even tell you say statue features na DNA test? You dey look nose and lips like say you be Hotep forensic expert. Statues no be selfie

You no go fit confirm race from weather-worn stone, abeg.

All those white authors you dey quote — Gerald Massey, Godfrey Higgins — dem no be real historians. Dem just be old school conspiracy theorists wey smoke plenty pipe and write anyhow. Meanwhile, real Chinese and Indian historians never mention anything like black rulers in their entire record. But na you from Nairaland wey discover am? LOL.

Oga, make we no lie give ourselves. Africa get rich history, yes. But instead make we build on am, una dey do cosplay with fantasies. Meanwhile, countries like Japan, China, India wey swallow humiliation, studied the West and industrialized

Now dem dey lead in tech, finance, and medicine.

You dey here dey shout ‘We Waz Kangz’ while dem dey run global markets. Who really wise?

Make we face truth: no be who shout pass for history na him go lead future. Make we calm down, learn wetin we suppose learn, and build something better. That one go do pass all these statue drama and internet pharaoh dreams.

This one wants to only believe his ancestors were only in the village in mud huts, and went nowhere.

OP has clearly proved you wrong.

Get a life.

You cannot blame them entirely because black African leaders make black people look worse than monkeys.

If black African leaders like Tinubu were doing well by leading their nations with honesty, sincerity of purpose, and carrying all the different ethnicities that make up their countries along for the purpose of communal progress for all their citizens irrespective of their ethnicity or religion, believe me, black Africans will be respected by other races. In Nigeria for instance, some tribes believe they are superior to others and they use this foolish mentality to be destroying Nigeria politically and otherwise, and they still foolishly believe that Nigeria will become a better nation with such insanity.

So why would other races respect you when you don't even respect or value your own people in your country? Fulani herdsmen will wake up and carry gun to shoot and kill vulnerable, defenseless people struggling to survive for no justifiable reason and they feel so good and proud about it and the person ruling Nigeria folds his arms and go about his daily business like it's nothing in this 21st century, how can others respect you?



Check the world, every other race have one or two nations of their race making them proud in technology, science, innovations and economic development, only the black race have no single black nation making them proud in the global arena.



Whites (Caucasians) have all of Europe, America, UK, Australia, Canada, Russia, etc making the white race proud.


China, Japan, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore and India are making the Asian race proud.


Brazil, Argentina, Bahamas, Cuba, etc are making the Carribeans proud.

Tell me which black nation is making black race proud?


Nobody respects failure.


Nobody respects the destitute or the foolish person, that's the sad truth. Blacks remain the fools of the world that refused to put their house in order. It's disheartening that black people cannot govern themselves in their own black nations and lead their nation to a communal prosperity. This is the singular reason other races don't respect black people.

People like you make me sick.

You are so good at running down the black race, yet you don't know anything.

There are many black nations doing well.

Botswana, Rwanda, Tanzania, Ghana, Trinidad and Tobago, Guyana, Jamaica, Ivory Coast, the Bahamas which you mentioned, thinking it was a white country, but it's actually black.

These are some of the world's fastest growing economies.

I can bet you have not visited one of those countries.

But you ''know'' that they are ''not doing well'' because they are black countries CNN ignores, only to show Somalia and Boko Haram as 'African news'.

This is the same colonial complex that makes you run to Dubai and New York on holiday with the first money you get instead of Tanzania or Trinidad.

What you Nigerian youths need to do is end the self-loathing and explore the black world, of which you know nothing.

I visited Jamaica a decade ago when I was thinking like you, and could not believe I was in a black country.

So well organised. So beautiful.

I was just thinking ''If one quarter of Nigerians running to London on vacation actually went to Jamaica, it would boost their economy exponentially, and they could be the next Singapore''.

But how will that happen when Nigeria is filled with self-loathing blacks like you for whom whites are godlike beings?

You will see an item made in Nigeria, and choose the exact same item made in Italy and sold at triple the price, so you can feel better than your African brother.

So how will your industries grow?

The ''Singapore'' you mentioned, did it happen by Asians shunning Asian countries and products and running to Europe and America to spend?

The biggest problem we have in Africa is not corruption, but racial complex, and you are a prime example of that.

Until that is fixed, you will have problems.

Someone needs to teach you Nigerian youths that black Africans ruled this same Europe you are worshipping, for over 800 years between the 7th and 15th centuries. If you disbelieve, go on Google Images and type 'Moorish Crests'.

Their desperately poor leaders merely used Chinese gunpowder mixtures to mass produce firearms, which they used to rob and destroy the rest of the world to enrich themselves.

They are no more 'superior' to you than an armed robber or kidnapper is.

lexy2014:
how was the naira overvalued?

what was wrong with paying fuel subsidy?

how have the living standard of nigerians improved sine the government paying fuel subsidies?

kindly find below the reason tinubu removed fuel subsidy.

I don’t debate with you.

Go on ChatGPT to find out the reasoning behind Nigeria’s economic policies.

Procashtips:
Anytime you see the west praising the leaders of your country, just know that the country is being sold out to them and they are milking it dry without any form of resistance.

But the same west has been publishing figures and statements on Nigeria’s economic decline, and you loudly agreed with them.

The minute they say what your bitter mind hates to hear, all of a sudden they’re imperialists looking to milk the country dry.

Your head is conditioned for negativity against Nigeria.

But that’s your problem to fix, as we don’t give two sh…ts.

Chucks13:
Initiator of what?

UK has no hand in Tinubu economic reform policies and the truth is their iss no way to reform an economy without hiccups but at long run it will yield God result. However, I support the reform 100%, subsidy will never return so pls try and go look for job to do it will help you alot.

Thanks..

Don’t mind them.

BlackDuke:
May these reforms come upon your Country too

We are not returning to paying fuel subsidies and the overvalued Naira.

If you can’t stand it, leave Nigeria.

hisexcellency34:
They will never praise you if you are doing well for your people and you want to liberate them like Traore

Nigeria is not Burkina Faso, and needs no ‘liberation’ from anybody.

We control our resources. There were no French troops stationed here and stealing resources.

We don’t need a Traore. Or military rule. We’ve been there.

We need a good technocrat in office who knows his job and has vision.

That’s Tinubu.

indemnityy:
Keep on deceiving yourself, E go reach your turn.

Your juniors are establishing tech startups in Yaba that are attracting millions of dollars of investment from Silicon Valley.

Others are moving into AI.

Sit in your cave abusing Tinubu while your juniors leave you behind.

hisexcellency34:
I don't trust these British people. They only praise you if you are favoring them. They are happy as long as Nigeria is in a mess and our people are japaing to do dirty jobs and build their economy for them

But you would have trusted them if they’d said Nigeria was hopeless, with no way forward.

You’re pathetic.

hisgrace090:
The onitiators of this hunger induced reform have spoken.

They initiated nothing.

Nigeria decided voluntarily to restructure its economy.

Tinubu could easily have continued with borrowing $10 billion annually to pay for fuel subsidies, and left the dual exchange rate regime that led to arbitrage by companies meant to be producing stuff, and other companies fleeing altogether, leading to further debt and economic decline.

Instead we’ve stopped the subsidies, and even repaid billions of dollars in debt.

Just last week the World Bank announced that Nigeria is currently achieving its fastest economic growth in 10 years.

So nobody forced Nigeria to restructure. It was the smart thing to do.

Buhari didn’t do it because he was scared of the backlash, but Tinubu is a stronger leader.

fuckingAyaya:
Even if they give u and your boss 100billion monthly for electricity you won't achieve anything because y'all are corrupt and bereft of ideas

If they give you common LGA chairmanship, nobody will see you on Nairaland again, and you will turn big man overnight with the peoples’ money.

You are all loud and radical until you see budget billions staring you in the face.

Tochi3:

Do you know you could be arrested for that image you posted?

Tinubu has never been charged, much less convicted, of a criminal offence anywhere in the world.

I’m sure your empty head worships Trump - an actual convicted criminal on 34 counts who is yet to serve his sentence.

OP deliberately left out the name of the “Nigerian”.

Why?

Is he one of the ‘Emergency Nigerians’?

owobokiri:
Why London!?
Are we still under colonialism, abi slavery?
Why always London, Paris or Washington!?!?!
Are they ruling Londoners?
What kind of inferiority complex is this amongst these inept generation of kleptomaniacs!?
Why always London and Paris!?
Why not Calabar and Jos!?
Why do they always have to go beg for authorisation to rule from neo colonialists!?
What kind of warped mindset is this

Honestly my brother, we have problems in this country.

The mentality is so wrong….

They all do it. Obi, Tinubu, etc..

Every small thing they will run to London to go and report.

Do you see China or India doing that?

Never.

We need leaders who reason like Ibrahim Traore of Burkina Faso.

I’m so done with this colonial mentality.

So sickening.

DadaEleniyan:
Swahili will never be Nigeria’s first language.
We will have our own and not adopt anyone’s language.

Let the East Africans adopt it in their region first because only Tanzania 🇹🇿 and Kenya 🇰🇪 speaks it in the region.

I don’t think it’s open to debate..

It’s already a done deal. It’s just a question of when they will roll it out…

If you can speak English, French, Portuguese, and other colonial languages without problems, you can speak Swahili without problems.

Nigerian indigenous languages will also be promoted.

Are you aware that the AU has full Continental Unification in its Charter?

In the future Africa will be a single country with a single President, military, currency, language, etc.

The current nations will be states of the African federation or confederation.

PlayerMeji:
Not only Soludo.. All governors and politicians should stop that open gutter road project.

It reeks low esteem and substandard thinking facility.

Come to Abuja from Wuse 2 to Asokoro Guzape etc all you will see is proper drainage system but when it comes to the poor masses, they will open all the gutters so that the poor masses are tempted to throw in their refuses into the open gutters.

What gets me is just the basic Lack of Thinking that characterises those projects.

You build a road in a built-up area where people are walking around.

Why don’t you think about where those people will walk?

Where children, women, the elderly and disabled, will walk?

Why is it okay to you that you have an open gutter built, on a new road, with no sidewalks for pedestrians?

It makes no sense.

Some of these people that call themselves leaders are just pure mediocre folks.

Solsix:
He promised us Dubai - Taiwan, but I don't even know what he's delivering.

That’s really funny 😆

Those roads look nothing like Dubai or Taiwan.

Someone should remind him there are no open gutters in Dubai and Taiwan! 🤣🤣

mosicola:
Just like Nigerian airways, they hired these ones. Once the celebration is over, the aircraft you see today you see them no more

Another garbage talk.

Nigerians of the future will speak Swahili as the official language.

That’s the AU lingua franca, and it will be made compulsory in every African school in the coming years.

It will be so great! 😄

Africa for Africans. 😊😎

Urgent1Million:
Ok.
It's also high time you have joined the military so that you will fly the Nigerian built fighter jets. Don't forget to bring your family members along.

Same thing your fellow air heads were saying decades ago when Nigeria began opening vehicle plants.

Now it’s no big deal to drive a Nigerian-built car.

Keep being an air head.

There are always people like you.

unclejb2:
you never manufacture toothpick na fighter jets you wan manufacture.

Ronu

I detest empty heads like you.

Nigeria manufactures thousands of items from armoured personnel carriers to chemicals to jet fuel to buses to shoes, bags, and SUVs.

So what is your “toothpick” remark about?

What is wrong with you Nigerian youths with your low self esteem?

Just because you are at home doing nothing doesn’t mean the rest of the country is on your level.

Originalsly:
Burkina Faso has money? .... how are they doing with their food self sufficiency? They spend their money....buy up the lands ... what will happen to our farmers? ...small farmers? ... when you go to market and there is a scarcity of local produce ...will you then blame the farmers? ...when they come with mechanized farming and control local water supply...is it then your eyes will clear?

Israel arrived in Palestine...rest backing from the West....large farms .... tremendous progress ...but what happened to the locals? Same in South Africa. All you can see is money ...blinded by money. And we wonder how people keep going to Libya to be treated worse than animals....blinded by money.

Your problem is your mouth runs faster than your brain.

Nigeria’s 250 million people need major capital investment in every sector including agriculture. Burkina Faso, I’m not sure they are even up to 20 million people, so maybe their “small farmers” can handle agric issues there.

Nigeria’s food security issues are way beyond what small farmers can handle.

Suffer no dey do una?

Like I said, so far as we have a strong regulatory system in place, stuff like water contamination issues you spoke of, will be prevented.

klasys:
But they can use it on civilians who are protesting 😲.

We don't really have military in this country, no no.

They were trained to fight armless civilians,

Bloody civilians as they said

Street tout typing nonsense.

DesChyko:
Yet, you said all these in the white man language.

Use your brain.

He is writing in “the white man language” because it is the lingua franca.

That can be changed. You are an African. Your people will not speak the “white man language” in perpetuity.

Streetinvestor2:
Nothing special to this for me
That is white man language and adds not value to problem solving. Why are the white not having the same achievements in our local language. You go surprise she can't even speak igbo language fluently. To me Nothing special

I feel the same.

It even feels embarrassing.

We should be talking about an African lingua franca by now, not perfecting our English.

Do you see Chinese or Indians, South Koreans, or Japanese struggling to excel in English?

They don’t care about that.
