ahhhh Venice!! you met Mr. Abasanjo? and who is that man please? and besides you could have reported that issue to your VIP friend called Abasanjo and not to this forum (any way there is freedom of speech) what is the work of your countries judicial system? catching and punishing law offenders right? let them do their job and stop this name smearing of Nigerians going on in your part of the continent, if the Namibian police think that some Nigerians are breaking the countries laws, it is their duty to arrest them and charge them accordingly

Mr larger don't confuse Latinos with Spanish people!! Spanish people are visa free to US and they are not poor people my friend. maybe you don't know where they are from , they are from Europe and not from Mexico.they enjoy a good economy like many parts of the world, and i am surprised by the kind of response i am getting on this issue, many Nigerians died following the desert route to Spain many more died on the sea route too , and their families has no clue of what has become of their kids at all and this is really sad

"ehihie ka eji acho ewu oji" it's better to search for the black goat in broad daylight

"acho mma ekwu, agba ama ife eriri n'abali" people know what you ate last night when you start looking for the kitchen knife

i live in Spain for the past years and i speak fluent Spanish more than my mates that came with me the same year but that does not make me a superman. we are very backward in Nigeria because we measure intelligence only with the ability to speak good English! what a shame!!! why i used my Spanish ability earlier is just to let you boys know that i am good in that language but i am not more intelligent than any of my friends that can not command good Spanish and they offer me thousands of advices because what they have in their brains i can not achieve with just speaking good Spanish, it is good to know languages but we don't need to become professors of those languages just to talk to people, conversational level of any language is alright for everybody and we need to learn to write our mother tongues also because i know that more than half of people here can not write their own languages and that's a "BIG SHAME" . what do we say on that huh!!
TravelAfricans Dying On Their Way To Enter Spain by romeo(op): 11:10am On Mar 13, 2006
i am in sorrows !!! almost every week some unknown number of African youths loose their lives and what the Spanish press do is add insults to this tragic events by calling them "sin papeles" which means people without documents, like if they are not humans. i am angry because our governments are not doing anything on this and even when some of our African brothers died on the hands of Moroccan police and that of the Spanish civil guard. I AM ASHAMED OF THE AFRICAN UNION!! because this youths are not criminals and we deserve some respect from every nation no matter our legal situation in that country. when you search for the Spanish embassy in Nigeria what you'll see is this, http://www.conpapeles.com. "con papeles" means with documents, please i want some opinions on how we can be reporting all this issues

all you need to connect to wifi is just a computer, it doesn't matter if you have a notebook or a pda or even a desktop, and your laptop must not be wifi enabled because you can buy wifi adapters and they cost from 20-200 euros, i have one conceptronic wireless 54mbps usb adapter,
in standard Wireless-G (802.11g) ,and i bought it very cheap, 23 euros with vat added. Even pcmcia cards are cheap too
PoliticsRe: The Western Media's Portrayal Of Africa by romeo(m): 9:14am On Mar 13, 2006
You make it sound like this is some kind of competition to see who is helping the most.
i was only making a point there by saying that charity is not all about sponsoring a kid some where in Africa, you can still sponsor a kid in Nigeria because they need that too and if you can do more by sponsoring more kids in other countries that would be marvelous .

Everyone keeps talking about this financial aids being sent to "Africa", but how many people have actually seen or noticed any improvement entirely due to this "Foreign Financial Aid"? This boys show adverts of bony black kids, trying to get people to donate, but if you look close enough at those kids you will realize that they are the same kids that were used some years back, and the child shows no improvement or anything. As we say it: won pass, won fail won kuro n class (them no pass, them no fail, them no comot class). Do they mean to tell me that the same child they showed me two years ago still looks the same way as he did the last time they showed him.
because these people are still fighting wars, destroying there resources and so on. the pictures you see of kids with sticking out backbones are real my friend. More than 2 million people are dying of real hunger in Kenya, even "camels" are dying because of drought and the government of Kenya spent millions of dollars in buying 50 new Mercedes s-class luxury cars and more 4x4 jeeps, for the government officials and this is Africa my brother, just imagine what that money could have done for this people that needed it most and that is not the end of it

PoliticsRe: The Western Media's Portrayal Of Africa by romeo(m): 6:53pm On Mar 12, 2006
This topic is not about Nigeria, its about Africa, I only used Lagos as an example in an earlier post. The issue is about the overall portrayal of Africa (not Nigeria alone). I'm really not interested in arguing about the political situation in Nigeria on this thre
where is nigeria?? in south america? nigeria is part of africa and a big part of it and was just an example from me.

well you're doing your part (sorry i have no cookies to give out Smiley) however the African kids we're talking about here are not in Nigeria and they have no family to help them.
keep ur cookies for your burkina faso kids, these families i am helping out really needs somebodies help too, charity is not only about giving money to unesco or to oxfam, our people still need us
PoliticsRe: The Western Media's Portrayal Of Africa by romeo(m): 10:56am On Mar 11, 2006
As Africans we don't need aid from these countries, what we need is for them to stop interfering in the affairs of the continent
- by allowing fair trade agreements so African raw materials are sold at fair prices not at prices determined in western countries.
- by not encouraging conflicts by selling weapons to both sides of a conflict (e.g Sudan, Congo, Rwanda)
- allowing their multinationals to pollute and degrade our environment
- allowing our corrupt politicians to stash money in their banks and providing them safe havens
- Supporting dictators that end up destroying their countries (e.g Mobutu in Zaire supported by US et AL throughout his tyrannical reign, Rwandan Hutu leadership that carried out the Tutsi genocide was supported by France etc)
the only thing i agree with you here is about the trade agreements so that we can sell at fair prices and compete with others
you should know that those arms they use in conflicts are mostly smuggled arms
banks in western world are private institutions and they accept money from everybody and they are not govt. controlled
and on about supporting dictators, we Africans are to be blamed on that because ethnicity plays a lot on this. and in Nigeria a new dictator is being created by the lawmakers
why are we waiting for the western media houses to give us good image? can't we promote our own image with our own media?


Well the people i know (myself included) are proud of our Nigerian heritage and we're constantly working to improve things and change perceptions. If you're so ashamed of your country/continent you can do something about it by supporting African charities. You can start by sponsoring an African child at Plan -
sorry my friend i am sponsoring families and not just one kid in Nigeria, 5 families depend on me

Nairaland GeneralRe: Embarrassed In The Company Of Nigerians by romeo(m): 6:43pm On Mar 10, 2006
i think that it is embarrassing to be in the company of nigerians. they are mafia's and crooks, most of them come to my country to invest in various types of business, but they are crooks and cannot be trusted, well most of them that have been.

In our local daily, they were cought dealing with drugs and diamonds, the highest confiscated large amount of drugs ever in Namibia, a young boy from our town was also involved and has been arrested, why do they come to our country with the intension of dealing dirty, Namibia is a clean safe crountry and we would like to live in peace of the nigerians, they are really dangerous!
tell me something i don't know my friend!! from the corrupt free nation of namibia. come on these bad nigerian business men bring drugs inside your country and they sell those drugs to themselves and consume ithuhhuhhuh?? who the Bleep is buying those drugs from them and i can assure you they don't hawk this stuff on the streets themselves, someone else is doing that and they must be namibians. and i am ashamed of walking with southern african nationals because they hate people from western africa .

why are so worried about our image when we are dying of hunger in africa, if we want good images for the whole world to see then we better demand that from our respective govts. it is their work to promote our image, it is their work to protect our image. and can somebody tell me the kind of image we are talking about here? i don't think there is anything wrong here in calling a kettle black when everybody knows that the kettle is black, take for e.g. a country like kenya where millions of it's citizens are dying of hunger because of drought and the government was busy spending millions of dollars in luxury cars for their official use ( 50 mercedes benz s-class and some luxury 4x4's) and this is my africa that is asking for good image abroad. show the whole world this in news and tell me where the hell we will get our much needed foreign aid to run our nations, and talking about good image in my motherland naija!! VI is filthy and abuja too, when ur living outside nigeria you'll come to find out that there is nothing good bout our nation to be shown abroad and boys are really hiding there nationality these days concerning naija
