[quote author=Richy.]God this is sooooo sad. who is to blame the most in this sad and unfortunate story

The Divisional police officer who should have applied wisdom in his judgment by warning his fellow oga to stop eating what does not belong to him because I know that "big man talks to big man" undecided

or the Assistant Superintendent who wants to show that he was the boss by taking what does not belong to him. eight years is not eight days undecided.

Or the police Corporal who should have controlled his anger. knowing that there are plenty fishes in the ocean shark inclusive. I wish this Guy would rest in peace but how can he when his blood will be screaming for vengeance sad

Rossikk: You are lousy to claim this. Could you read and write, calculate, theorise etc after your Nigerian education? If so, then shut your ungrateful, spiteful lips and be grateful to God for Nigerian independence. The alternative was a big fat NOTHING under British rule, which would have confined you to the village as a farmer, hunter, carpenter, tailor, or shoemaker for the rest of your days just like your grandparents.




You are no more 'naturally intelligent' than all the millions of illiterates we had at independence. You are who you are today because of Nigerian rule and the education that bequeathed you. We know your inferiority complex and self hate will never allow you give credit to people of your colour for saving you from illiteracy and poverty. But that's between you and your therapist and psychiatrist.





More garbled falsehood and rubbish. As someone who got his first degree in Nigeria and then in the UK and the US I can tell you for free that a Nigerian university education is far MORE tasking and demanding academically, than a UK degree, or worse, a US one. Anyone who schooled abroad will know this: Their standards are far less demanding than in Nigeria. You really don't need to study too hard to get a degree there. In fact, months before exams, you know exactly what questions to expect. So spare us all this white worship.



What education did your father get under the British? Bearing in mind they built no university in the country in their 63 year rule. You must be referring to hunting rabbits as education. Or do you mean primary? Lucky him. The overwhelming majority of Nigerians saw no education at all under the British.



More important is how many were built AFTER they left? That number is 127 as at today. THANK GOD FOR INDIGENOUS RULE, OR THAT NUMBER WOULD BE 2 OR 3 TODAY IF WE ARE LUCKY.



How do you know, since you don't know the mortality rate 'before they came'? Or is that your inferiority complex and self hate talking again?




The baboons educated you so you must be a gorilla. No, corruption became a national culture in 1914 following the fraudulent, corrupt amalgamation of Nigeria done without the input or approval of Africans, and furthered over a century by rampant theft and embezzlement of our resources by the colonialists, even as slaves like you kissed their butts.



at 6000 watts installed capacity, a lot more than the 270 watts the British left you with after a century in power! Today we have light in villages and cities. Under colonialism, villages, where the majority lived, were completly neglected. Only a tiny few Nigerians knew what electricity was in 1960. The colonialists did not need to 'work hard' to exploit our palm oil, rubber, cocoa, groundnuts, tin and coal, in their day because they never did any work personally. It was Nigerians that did all the work.





Evidence for what claim? That the colonialists embezzled 95% percent of annual income during their rule? What evidence do you need to realise that? WHAT DID THEY BUILD IN THOSE 100 YEARS OF EXPORTING OUR RESOURCES? A MAN COMES AND SEIZES YOUR LAND AND RESOURCES, AND AFTER 100 YEARS LEAVES YOU WITH A BUSH, AND YOU STILL ASK FOR 'EVIDENCE' THAT HE EMBEZZLED ALL YOUR EARNINGS? You must be REALLY BRAINWASHED. WHAT A WASTE OF YOUR 'OYIBO EDUCATION' to ask such a question.




No they have not been dominant for 600 years unless in your addled brain. 600 years ago they were in the Dark Ages and it was black African Moors who were busy lifting them out of poverty, illiteracy and disease. You need to study history.



We are not talking of when they were ''in'' India, but when they fully colonised the place and that was in 1858.
Lets park the rest for a while. Let me first slaughter you on your moronic assertion that you "reason pretty well" despite the fact you ran from me. grin grin grin grin grin

What education did they give me? grin grin grin grin grin grin

Have you seen Nigerian "graduates" talk on NL? Can they even reason?

Let me give you example of our "educated" grin grin grin grin grin grin:

The education the baboons are giving people is churning out majority unemployable fucktards.

My education in Nigeria was a waste. Thank God, I am naturally intelligent otherwise dem for don ruin my life. It was when I got to the UK that I got the real education from oyinbo for free. They gave me free healthcare and supported my entire life.

The good education my papa get was the foundation that oyinbo set before the baboons came to destroy.

Rossikk: whereas had your British masters still been in power, you would most likely have grown up illiterate, given the pitiful 12% literacy rate at independence, and the fact that after 63 years in power, they built for your country only a half university, just as they were about to be kicked out. As well as infant mortality rate at 260 per 1000 (compared to 72 per 100 today and falling). You might not even have made it out of your formative years. You really should be thankful for independence.
And how many universities did you build in the 10,000 or more years you were there before oyinbo?

What was the mortality rate before oyinbo came? Maybe I would not have made it past infancy if they did not come.

Rossikk: You need to understand that corruption started under the colonialists. How else do you explain ruling and exploiting a nations's resources - groundnut, cocoa, iron ore, rubber, palm oil, coal etc for 100 years and at the end of it, there's not a single university in the country? No national grid? We produced just 270 mw at independence. Electricity was unknown outside a few cities.
But I thought you said the baboons came to improve things?

How come they made corruption a national culture and honour?

What electricity have they built after finding easy money that they did not need to work hard for (Oil)?

Rossikk: Corruption actually REDUCED DRASTICALLY after independence. So instead of 95% of our annual export earnings being siphoned to London as occurred under the Brits, maybe 30% was siphoned by the new Nigerian rulers. That was why there was suddenly more money to build thousands of schools, hospitals and roads after independence.
Please provide evidence for this claim.

You know I don't tolerate conjectures in debate. Thanks to the education oyinbo gave me.

If I did not get that oyinbo education, maybe I would have been making and accepting conjectures as the bonafide truth.

Rossikk: Do you consider yourself inferior to a white man? You shouldn't. It's only been in the last 250 years or so out of 20,000 years of recorded human history that the European has been dominant, owing to the industrial revolution that occurred in his domain. Surely if he was superior to all he would have been advanced thousands of years ago and not just a few hundred? Before the industrial revolution all races were roughly equal in technology, politics and economy.
I consider all men alive or dead inferior to me or, at best, a minute few on par.

Nah. Europeans have been dominant for more than 600 years, not 250 years. That is more than 20 generations.

Rossikk: Wrong. The British Raj was not established until 1858, just 40 years or so before the colonisation of Nigeria.
You must be having a laugh.

The British have been in India since about 1600 and something.
PoliticsRe: Pictures Of Ibadan In The 60s (from Skyscraper City) by Sagamite(m): 1:15am On Sep 02, 2013
Rossikk: You do realise the west played a major part in that state of affairs having directly ruled the continent for a century?
They left it in a better state than the baboons that took over and are still in places like Aso Rock today.

That is by the way, the argument is about trying to say Africa was on par with the world 50 years ago. No it was not. It was like what Western world was like 150 years.

Rossikk: A lot more than you seem to imagine. In 1960 world literacy level was 60.7%. Sub Saharan Africa was at less than 15% in 1960 (after 63 years of colonial rule), and by 1970 it was 27%. Today it is about 60%.

http://www.unesco.org/education/GMR2006/full/chapt7_eng.pdf
So basically, you produced the following evidence for me:

1) Africa was not par with the world 50 years ago.

2) Africa is now at the stage were the world was 50 years ago.

Right?

That is basically everything I have said.

Now considering that Africa is basically a large swath of backwardness today, then it suggests the world was very backward back 50 years ago?

Lets not forget that it is the Western world that raised the average that high 50 years ago. Globally roads, expressways, hospitals, and literacy were NOT the norm.

Rossikk: They did NO SUCH THING. If Africa is ''transformed'' today, it was ''transformed'' by AFRICANS AFTER INDEPENDENCE. The only PLACE ''TRANSFORMED'' by colonialists was SOUTH AFRICA and that was because they were white resident populations living there.
They transformed it from a bunch of illiterates with superstitions and a tendency to start wars and kill each other, to a more advanced society.

Without the white people, Africa would not only have been 50-100 years backwards, they would have been close to 200 years backwards.

Rossikk: Go on Google and read up on it. The Indian population in the UK saw a huge rise in the 40s and 50s owing to mass migration of educated Indians to Europe in search of greener pastures. Unlike in black Africa, the colonialists invested in mass education and universities in India. The oldest Indian universities are dated to the 1860s! Same as South Africa by the way. Nigerians could not partake of those early migrations because they were mostly uneducated villagers.
You forgot some few things.

By then, Europe had over 400 years of colonisation of India. China was never colonised.

As for Nigeria, Lagos that was the first to be colonised in Nigeria was colonised around 1860. Even my Sagamu was not colonised until about 1890.

Over those 400 years, Chinese and Indians had been migrating as free men. The Chinese as far back as the period of the Silk road 600 years ago before the Europeans even thought of going by ship.
PoliticsRe: Pictures Of Ibadan In The 60s (from Skyscraper City) by Sagamite(m): 12:32am On Sep 02, 2013
Rossikk: We are not talking of ''150 years ago'' Mr Man. 1960 was approximately 50 years ago, not 150 years.
50 years ago for Africa is more like 200 years ago for the Western world, talkless of 150 years ago.

Even today's Africa is like 100 years ago for the West.

Rossikk: 50 years ago, roads, expressways, hospitals, and literacy WERE THE NORM GLOBALLY. The colonialists simply DENIED African colonies those things, which was why we had to play catch-up at independence in the 1960s. By right, everywhere in Africa should look like South Africa, considering the colonialists were in power for nearly a century across the continent. But they only re-invested export earnings in colonies with a significant WHITE minority. This is why you go to places like Namibia, SA, even Kenya, and you'll see signs of infrastructural investment dating back a century or more. But not in places like Nigeria, Ghana, Guinea, Cameroun etc. Those nations were all black, so the colonialists did nothing. Now, wishing they had stayed an extra decade, shows a lack of understanding of the logic and deep racism of colonial reasoning.
Which globally are you talking about?

Which roads, expressways, hospitals, and literacy were the norm globally?

Do you know the meaning of global?

How many people were going to school in the world 50 years ago?

Whether you like it or not, the colonialists transformed Africa in the 100 years they were ruling the continent.

Rossikk: Oh please... The Indians and Chinese left their nations in droves in the 1940s and 50s to settle in Europe and America. In fact the first 'Chinatown' in the USA was established in the 1920s!!! So people across the world were educated and were moving around. You think all this migration stuff only started yesterday because that was were the colonial govt left you - in the bush - until you were saved by Nigerian independence.
Apart from comparing China to Africa, please educate me on the "great migration" of Indians and Chinese you are talking about in the 1940s and 50s.

Rossikk: WHAT growth pattern?

I just don't see ANY ''growth pattern'' in those images. Apart from Cocoa house, Leventis, and Mapo Hall, what else was there? Pls don't mention UI or IITA etc. Schools.

Where were the roads? Any expressways? How many hospitals were in Ibadan in 1960? How many kids attended school? I mean, if you see the figures and stats for that period you'll be shocked at the underdevelopment of the period. So showing Cocoa house is useless. The standard of living of people then was very low. Infant mortality rate in the 60s in Nigeria was 260 per 1000. That figure is down to 72 per 1000 today. Today that is supposedly ''bad'' and the 60s ''good''. Point is, why are we deluding ourselves?



Not just more roads and more millionaires. Today we have more middle class people, more ordinary folk like you and I who can afford things like TV, fridge, cars, phone etc. In 1950s and 60s Nigeria, only the very rich, tiny minority could afford those items, which were common to people all over the world at the time.

And the sad thing was that no one thought of leaving the country for ''greener pastures'' abroad. Why? Because with a mere 12% literacy rate at independence, most Nigerians were too illiterate and poor to even contemplate such a move.

Today, most Nigerians are educated - thanks to the post-colonial Nigerian govt investment in mass education - so we have that option. So things are a LOT BETTER TODAY in many ramifications.
I am sure if you go roughly 150 years ago, there were no roads and expressways or hospitals or kids attending schools in much of the Western world too. Neither were there many people that could call themselves middle-class or afford white goods.

Most people did not think of leaving Nigeria back then for greener pastures because global mobilisation was not the norm back then, the transportation system was not as developed, easy or cheap as it is today and one was not guaranteed equal rights in a place where their skin colour were different. All these combined with the decent economic avenues to survive back then (no affluent people buying all the land) and the historical contentment due to lack of exposure to anything better is why people did not contemplate such a move.

The essence of what django1 might be saying is that Ibadan was one of the leading lights in Nigeria back in the day. It definitely had more roads, expressways, hospitals and schools than virtually all other areas in Nigeria bar Lagos.

Up till the mid-90s, Ibadan was arguably Nigeria's second city. Only Kano could contend that position with it but I think Kano was Nigeria's third city as Ibadan was the leading alternative to Lagos for top companies. Now Ibadan is hardly a city to recogn with. It is not in Nigeria's top cities which are now Lagos, Port Harcourt and Abuja.
PoliticsRe: Pictures Of Ibadan In The 60s (from Skyscraper City) by Sagamite(m):
Abagworo: Ideology affects the human psych when one belongs to any association. In our universities we have the confraternities which shapes students performance depending on the individual orientation even when both grew up together. Same with Churches where 2 brothers indifferent Churches get their individual orientation changed.

In a nutshell I believe the orientation of APC as progressive initiates any politician that joins it into a cult of good performance. Some PDP members have been good but the party has been a stumbling block. Look at Amaechi and all his good works but the 2 major federal roads(East-West Road and PH-Enugu Expressway) that cross his State are death traps. Even the Port-Harcourt Aba highway that has only about 8 to 10km in Rivers State will take you more than an hour from Eleme junction to Obigbo, a distance of 4km.
Beautifully said.

There is a Fashola-effect in the party (maybe soon to be Fashola-Oshiomole effect), i.e. tangible development and modernisation. Everyone expects you to be Fasholaristic when you win an election under the ACN barge (now APC). The leadership understand this expectation is fundamental to its success against a bigger and more powerful PDP, so they put higher pressure on their winners. Not achieving this unique effect and they will be annihilated in elections because Nigerians, when given poor choices, are AGIP supporters. AGIP = Any Government In Power.

PDP has the Silverback Gorilla Jonathan effect, i.e. unashamedly business-as-usual leadership. You are an exception like Amaechi if you derail from it. It is okay as a PDP leader to be like Bode George, Anenih, Ibori, Uduaghan and Alams. You will be very rewarded in the PDP for that.

RedReact: ^^^
We still meant the same thin, though under different perspectives. Truly speaking, the independence was a big mistake at that time; but we can never rule out the regional competition taking place at the time of those men.
Believe me, Awo, Zik, and Bello had their flaws and negativities, but still did well for their respective regions. Had that competition been maintained, things might not have deteriorated as we have it now. That independence was just a big mistake in the history of the country. Had it been that the trio were imprisoned for the sake of freedom, or Nigeria's case was like that of SA, they and their followers would have sat up and fought for the common cause and played a true nationalistic game for the sake of the country, like Mandela and Tutu of SA, and got a built and sane Nigeria as against the reverse of what is experienced today.
Point taken.
PoliticsRe: Pictures Of Ibadan In The 60s (from Skyscraper City) by Sagamite(m):
RedReact: 1966 marked the beginning of downward spiral of growth in Nigeria in its totality, but I still believed that we were not ready for independence when we got it.
If Nigeria's independence came after the order of SA, we wont be where we are today; although kudos should be given to our fathers who fought for the independence of the nation. Not only did they fight, but also had vision for a great country that would thrive and compete with other countries in the world. What a pity that we have less visionaries in Nigeria today!
The country has great potentials to be greater than the 60s era, and I believe a great Nigeria will be seen again, but we need servant-leader politicians and not pocket-focused politicians, that have docked our political terrain today.
God bless Nigeria and she will be great again.
Which fathers had great vision? grin grin grin grin grin

Abeg, my friend, don't be fooled by nonsensical legendary memes.

If you are talking about our leading father figures upon independence, they had limited vision for Nigeria.

Awolowo - Arguably the most visionary, but his vision was really limited to his tribe. His efforts were mainly impactful on his tribe (arguably mainly because that is where he ruled) but he applied a serious injustice to the SE after the war. He also used public funds for his party politics.

Ahmadu Bello - Arguably the most accepted by his people. That is possible because of the 'GRAND master-servant' culture of the area he came from that still exists till today. He also had a morbid hate for Igbos and famously said he would rather employ white people to Northern public service than employ other non-Northern Nigerians even if they were qualified.

Nnamdi Azikiwe - Arguably the most nationalistic, he was far more ready to work together as a nation. That said, he appeared to be a flip-flop that would switch to any possibility that makes him still relevant rather than a man of set principles or convictions. It is also difficult to believe he did not know of the 1966 coup.

Furthermore, all these guys turned a blind eye and let corruption and election fraud flourish under their leadership. They are not visionaries in my view.

Nigeria was going downhill right from 1st of October 1960.

So diving in football is your evidence of arrogance? And you have the audacity of calling someone else fool?

Cretinous product of a failed education system?

@topic. Its a very good initiative, but they must involve all categories of citizen to be a success; Traditional council, Religion leaders, student bodies, Legal practitioners, teachers, NGO.

Please must we tribalize everything? I reason with Ngwakwe about exempting Lagos. Its because of the heterogenous nature of the residents which has been aiding the development of Lagos state. On the other hand, if Lagos is exempted, it will look as if we Yoruba had sold our inherittance. If implemented, other tribe will have no choice than to dance to the tone of the music.

God bless Yorubaland, God bless Nigeria

The usual person conjecture of products of a failed education system.

The conspiracy of "them" against "us".

They pull it from their arsse and claim "it is a fact".

emmysenior: People are not always what they seemed.

Most times wish people look like their personality.

Those words are so harsh and it seems Messi's gat some dirty pride.
mikelreal: lool the guy get bad mouth sha, sorry for Cristian Tello and Sanchez, well the truth is He is the Boss.
Kslib: When i first saw the word "bully",the first thing i did was to picture messi's height/stature and said to myself "how manage"? Who can he bully?..
..
So its psychological bullying.. Hmmn,maybe people are shocked cos messi always has that innocent look coupled with the good boy image evryone knows him for..
..
All izz well!
TRILLIONIAR: No be human being? abeg free the man jare. Devils for life
nerodenero: A player of his status will definitely be arrogant.More disturbing news about Messi's arrogance will emerge soon.Above all,he is rare player,one of the best and will go down in history as one of the greatest.
Okwereogu: there's actually nothing a man can not do... For a personallity like messi, there's bound to be pride...
ninja4life: Well i am of d opinion dat messi might hav said something related in d op in spanish language which is much more derogatory when translated to english and also some people might also try to blow wat he said out of proportion but there is certainly some element of truth in d allegation.
nerodenero: Brief,summarized and close to the ground dudes can be stubborn and arrogant.I think they possess these attitude to complement for the loss of height.
honeeyplum: Not a football fan but am amazed dat short Messi too can bully some1 #dre is notin impossible for God to do#...the victims should arrange some accidental knocks for the guy jare and reset his brain.
World's best indeed
stagger: Tello needs to man up. Close to tears after being "bullied" by that midget?

Messi is lucky it isn't me. He would have been sucking his food from a straw for the rest of the year after I fragment that his jaw into 20 pieces. Nonsense!
scholes23: Now some biased barca fans are finding it hard to believe but if it were Ronaldo, they'll won't be surprised. For all of u saying that Messi is d most humble person in d world, now I'm in a better mood to compare with Ronaldo. After all Ronaldo does not pretend to be humble on d pitch in d midst of fans and exhibits pride in the dressing room. We're waiting, very soon we'll hear that him and Xavi are beefing each other.
watalovitis: Balloteli should b up thr in back, let's see who does d bullying
A lot of Nigerian fucktards will believe news without any evidence. That is their way of life.

Awon baba nla cretins!

Products of a failed education system.

Just throw any cretinous and apocryphal story in the air and they will pick it up as "fact", start formulating their "judgements" and spreading the nonsense as "knowledge".

No, you are a person. There is nothing to comprehend from the moronic rubbish you pulled from your arsse.

Explain to me how GEJ is "pitting tribes" against each other. How is he "stoking the flames"?

How is the "historical distrust of the Nigerian state being used to its fullest advantage by the Nigerian President"?

Your moronic arsse can as well say it was the Igbos that gassed people in Syria. Cretin!
