SirShymexx:
Loool.

Clown, I'm from Lagos - real bonafide Lagosian.

Son of the soil and a royalty - not an impostor, a freeloader, and/or a forced refugee. Without us, there would be no Lagos. We put the "L" in Lagos and 80% of the wealth of Lagos belong to us. We own Lagos - all the way from Victoria Island - to Epe.

Fvck ya feelings.

You're sure going out of your way to claim the 'biggest slum on earth' for yourself. I thought you had really high standards as suggested by your previous posts.

SirShymexx:
Lool. So predictable, Mr Rose.

But I call Lagos the biggest slum in the world all the time.

I guess Lagos is in the SE or NE, no? - hysterical.

I actually meant your specific region in Ogun state or wherever, which you always praise to high heavens. Everywhere else in Nigeria you scorn. And you need to visit Delhi and Calcutta to find the 'biggest slum in the world', not Lagos.

SirShymexx:
Rossikki

I saw Abuja (the pride of Nigeria) and it looks decent. Till I saw Luanda and Harare and, I thought I'd be prouder if I were Angolan or Zimbabwean. Then I saw Seychelles, Morocco, Egypt, Tunisia, and South Africa and, I thought there's nothing to be proud of in Abuja, the pride of Nigeria..

Holy moly, when I saw South American, Gulf states, Asian, and Western/European cities - I said, "fvck Abuja, fvck Nigeria - dear God, why art thou forsaken me?".

Mediocrity.

You wouldn't say this if Abuja was in the SW. Don't bother responding. You and I know it's true. It's sad that you've been in Europe so long yet still see everything through an ethnic prism.

Nigga obama said a lot of f****d up S**t. During his Campaign so don't say things u don't know

Stop using the n word. Grow up.

mandax:
You are living in denial.

This is Nigeria where the average person lives with less than two dollars a day. Therefore, it is astonishing to rational minds that Nigeria's president who preaches anti corruption can be paying £26000 per annum for his child in a foreign university, yet the president preaches anti-corruption - Do the Math, if bigotry would allow you to.

Is it now 2 dollars a day? I thought it was 1 dollar. Or even half a dollar a day. Compound illiterates regurgitating worthless, trashy foreign stats.

tammie24:
First thing I did was to check the source
At least no be one Nigerian newspaper


dailymail.co.uk

Speak the truth!

You are the ultimate dunce. Better get it into your thick slave skull that foreign media are very adept at propaganda news and falsehoods.

nrexzy:
His daughter goes to a £26000 uni and so?how does that Affect our Economy? President Obama's daughter got Admitted To Harvard did anyone complain?

Don't mind the racist Daily Mail. To them Africans should be in the bush, and nowhere else. Worthless newspaper.

Lucasbalo:
I like your patriotism but I hope they can keep it up. Central Lagos used to be like that but Nigeria is not good in infrastructural upgrades and maintenance.

You are wrong. Central Lagos is improving on a daily basis, and is much better than it was 5 or 10 years ago in terms of infrastructure.

LasoulMacuby:
No bro! The real Abuja where the larger population lives. Most of these pics are either in Asokoro, Maitama, Garki and say Wuse.
Show us pics from Mpape, Dei Dei, Kubwa, Lugbe, Gwagwalada e. t. c

Most of those places are not technically in Abuja, but suburban settlements outside the city, most of which are still undergoing infrastructural development.

adconline:
A place where street lights are barely working.. Abj is a run down city comparable to cities like Cairo, Algiers, Rabat, Cape Town, Pretoria, Gaborone

“Lies run sprints, but the truth runs marathons.”

― Michael Jackson

darkenkach:
Show us the real Abuja.

I did. You should visit as you clearly haven't been there.

malton:


Rossikki, I can't seem to wish the best for you enough!

True Nigerian! If you aren't showing Abuja, its Lagos, Calabar, or Kano. Taking my eyes to some places that I've never been to before.

True Nigerian!

If only these kids have just a quarter of your posture, this country would have been a better place..

Thanks dude.

Clone2020:
Many Nigerians are cleaning toilets as janitors in foreign countries, but do you see the white man posting such things on Instagram? How about the number of Nigerians washing old white people ass, do you read about it online? There's dignity in labor and we need to stop lookong down on anyone doing honest work.
Our own inferiority complex is just too funny, no wonder the white man easily colonized Africa because from the beginning of time, black people have always seen the white man as superior.

That's a certifiable LIE (the highlighted). It is ONLY from the colonial era (1880s) to the present day that we have blacks who consider whites superior. Prior to the colonial interregnum, NO AFRICAN saw himself as the inferior of any race. Benin was the equal of any city in the world up to the early 17th century. Attested to by European explorers who gushed at its order, its cleanliness, its superb buildings and palaces. It even had street lights. The roads of ancient Ife were PAVED, with intricate designs. In Ijebu lies the Eredo Earthworks and rampart complex, one of the largest man made constructions on the face of the planet. It was built with more material than was needed to build the Great pyramid of Cheops in Egypt. Estimates for its construction date range from 1000 to 3000 years ago, when whites were running around in caves of the Caucasus mountains. This structure, which should be a world beating tourist attraction, sits there today, ignored by post colonial Africans who think they are ''inferior'' to white people. The main problem is we are still suffering colonial hangover. I predict we will recover fully in the next 50 years or so, and remember who we are.

olihilistic:
why overrating her?? na becos of her skin smh

na wao? Is she not a human being? There are people in her country who are homeless beggars that sleep on the street.

Many Nigerians think every white person lives in a castle surrounded by luxury.

rev14vs11:
It may seem people get married for different reason but ultimately it certainly boils down to sexual relations.

How can it be for sexual relations when you can have even more of that as a single? I think it's societal expectations that drive marriage.

Tallesty1:
@TOPIC. It is better to live like there's a God and die and discover that there's no God than to live like there's no God and die a discover that there is.

Why? That statement is wrongly predicated on the notion that 'punishment' awaits those who did not 'believe'. There is ZERO EVIDENCE that any such punishment exists. And no.The claims of a few cattle rearers in the desert 3,000 years ago does not constitute evidence.

I can easily present similar statistics showing higher living standards in Ghana, Jamaica, Trinidad, Nigeria, Botswana, Namibia, St Lucia, Senegal, Barbados, Kenya, and Ivory Coast, than in Bangladesh, Yemen, Cambodia, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Laos, Tajikistan, Syria, Burma, Nepal, Iraq, Azerbaijan, and Sri Lanka.

So your point that development depends on skin colour is baseless, ignorant, stupi.d and dumb.

Reyginus:
Lol. Socrates was asked to drink Poison for 'Corrupting the Youth' and Terminal Meddling. Lol.

lol...knowledge is power....If you didn't know these things, you would think that white folks did it all, and gave the world everything.. not knowing that they appropriated African knowledge. Sad really. Our education system needs an overhaul.

Reyginus:
Lololol. Your dumbness is legendary. It also has some atom of cowardice. What happened to your Raymondenyi moniker and others? Okay, I get it. That one is for liking your posts. Lol.

Okay. I googled and I saw that there was an age of backwardness. Where sorcery and witchcraft ruled the continent. It was so bad that books were burnt and any philosopher around who tried to 'think' is burnt at the stake.

Is this part of European History or I invented it?

lol..
I bet he doesn't know that the 'Greek philosophers' like Aristotle, Socrates and Plato were executed or exiled by the Greek authorities for "teaching foreign doctrines" which they learnt from the ancient black Egyptians.

blueAgent:
Clown the origin of Civilization is in Mesopatomia. present day Iraq not Egypt. go and read about that.

The history of Egypt stretches far back into PRE HISTORY. And prior to Egypt an older civilization called Ta Seti thrived in the Sudan region, long before the desertification of the Sahara. Mesopotamia is a child where Africa is concerned. Africa is the Cradle of Civilization.

blueAgent:
I laugh .another one, black moors myth.

Google images 'black moor emblems'. You will see emblems and crests of present day European aristocratic families replete with their black Moorish ancestral images.

which Europe? the darkages did not affect European Civilization . it only changed their political and religeous views.

Really? So what great technological feats came out of Europe between the fall of Rome and the Renaissance, a period lasting over a thousand years? Care to inform us?

blueAgent:
let me ask you. will your blacks and Asians reinvent Electricity,Cars,Internet,Computer. or will they restablish the laws of chemisty ,Physics ,Engineering discovered by whites.
Where was Asians and blacks. when the whites discovered electricity,built turbines,invented Aeroplanes, cars,internet,Tvs,radio,mobile phones,Rockets, the list is endless .Space travel,Moon landing,established bulk of theories and formulars in Physics,Chemistry ,Biology ,Economics e.t.c
You can pick on object or proffession and google about its history.

You are like a toddler who washes only his belly when asked to take a bath. Where were whites when Africans were inventing mathematics, writing, geometry, alchemy, architecture, philosophy, iron smelting, medicine, ships, and charting the course of stars and planetary bodies? Whites could never make those things you listed without the initial technological achievements of Africans. So ALL RACES contributed to human civilization.

blueAgent:
Clown . The Roman's ,Greek, Assyrians and Mesopatomia empires ruled this world and contributed greatly to our present Civilization. and their present countries are still doing well. Italy,Greece,Germany,Iran,e.t.c
you see your analogy does not hold water.

Ignorant illiterate peabrain, I just told you that after the fall of Greece and Rome, Europe fell into its dark ages lasting one thousand plus years, before they re-emerged in the 16th century - with the help of black African moors by the way. Italy, Germany and co are modern creations which have nothing to do with ancient Europe.

Reyginus:
This would be too much for him. I've told him something like this before but his 'high IQ' couldn't handle it.

hehehe.. I hate to trouble his "high IQ" with such basic, elementary explanations to be honest.

blueAgent:
Same disorted history books. by hungary black attention seekers.
If blacks did build all that .then what happened to their brain. if the whiteman looted Africa's physical resources. did he also loot their head (brain) Lol...pathetic.

Your simplistic analysis betrays your lack of formal education. History is a revolving cycle in which civilizations rise, fall, and are replaced by others, who in turn are dominant for a while, then decline, to be replaced by others. It is not static. The west you worship was in its 'dark ages' from the fall of the Roman empire till around the 16th century. Over a thousand years of unremitting backwardness. Even today, the balance is shifting slowly to Asia, with African economies growing faster than the western nations'. No race has ever maintained optimal development throughout its existence. These are things you would know if you took time to research and study, instead of getting high and rehashing illiterate, beer parlour racist nonsense.

blueAgent:
Dreamer which skyscraper? give me names of Nigerians who built cars . show one element or formular, theory in Chemisty and physics established by your black men.

Even your bridge in lagos,national Staduim Abuja,Ajeokueta Steel. e.t.c where built by a white company and supervised by a white Civil engineer. Juluis berger

Drug addict cut and paster. Do you even know what you are copying? You claim to be black yet you don't know who makes cars in Nigeria? I actually think you are a reta.rd with serious mental problems. By the way, developing countries normally contract out major engineering works to firms with requisite technology and experience, many of which are based in developed nations. It does not mean they are "superior beings", and developing nations "inferior". That is a retar.ded, infinitely stupi.d and ill-informed, kindergarten way of viewing the world. You need to grow up, develop a working brain, and get a proper education.

blueAgent:
I laugh at your ingnorance. you will only claim , blacks did everything .yet no names,no evidence ,no facts. as usual black loud mouth.

same black civilization myths.
They say a picture is far better than a thousand words

Ignoramus. One hour of research online will reveal more information and details on African civilizations than your tiny, drug-addled brain can absorb. Why not go on Amazon and order history books by renowned scholars like Cheikh Anta Diop or Basil Davidson to learn African history, since your dumb, school dropout head is empty of all such information?

blueAgent:
Clown and how many of this Establishment were owned by blacks.

All the infrastructure in Nigeria is owned by blacks. What ignorant garbage are you on about?

the Oil that is the main stay of your economy. you did know it existed in your backyard how much more how to extract .if not for the whiteman that showed u how.

Africans mined minerals thousands of years before whites. The oldest mines on earth have been discovered in Tanzania. Modern technology would have been impossible without the pioneering achievements of African civilizations.

You are celebrating mediocrity as acheivement
4000MW for 170million people. No world class rated city,importing basic things like toothpick.

Why can't you produce toothpicks? Who stopped you? Other Nigerians far more intelligent than you are building cars, SUVs, buses, chemicals, glass, pharmaceuticals, computers, high rise complexes, and space satellites, while you sit in your inferior little corner moaning about toothpicks like the little ignorant, jobless imbeci.le you are.

busterr:
that boat is product of western education, go and chill in your dry palace

Dummy. Africans were the world's first seafarers, long before whites left their caves in the Caucasus mountains.
