The spin doctors are here! shocked
I just love the way you guys try to convince people that a piece of turd is actually a chunk of chocolate shocked
Yeah I'm sure junior minister are those that welcomed Obama during his just concluded african trip.
I'm also sure if that jiaping or what is his name, pays a visit to Nigeria, red carpets will be rolled out with our dear president standing like a school kid on the tarmac waiting to welcome him.
I'm sure you will not see anything bad in that.
You paid hacks, I'm sure you all are finding your job more difficult daily in your quest to defend your meal ticket shocked


Well said.

xpizzy: Today in History May 2, 2011.US Navy SEALs killed Osama Bin Laden Founder and Head of The Al-Qaeda in his Abbottabad abode in Pakistan. Has his death played any significant role in the global war against terrorism?

Rossikk: It is not being colonised that is the issue. The issue is what did the colonialists DO in the respective nations they colonised? In SOME countries they built infrastructure, schools, and created functional institutions which went on to serve those nations after independence. In OTHERS, especially the BLACK nations, all they did was loot, loot, loot and loot. In Nigeria, despite exporting hundreds of billions in today's money worth of resources from 1897 to 1960 they only built ONE university college, not even a full fledged uni. In 63 years of rule. As for roads, power etc, they did virtually nothing. In 1960, after 63 years of British rule, we generated 270 megawatts of electricity. 95 percent of Nigerians had no access to electricity. There was no national grid. Rail. Oh they built a line from Kano to the southern ports for ONE reason, ie to evacuate our resources. At independence, we were just a bush. Today we have advanced a lot and are still advancing, thanks to African rule. The EU can take their 'concern' for our 'plight' and stick it up their round holes.

kaisari: I'm originally from Tanzania, but every Nigerian I meet with thinks that I'm from Nigeria. They say I look Nigerian that's why I'm concerned with what's going on in Nigeria. I used to read about Nigerian politics, which is dominated by the military. Perhaps Nigeria could be better if there was no military involvement in their politics. I would like to visit Nigeria one day in order to change my view on this great African nation.

I have a few Nigerian friends here. and no one seems to think about going back there, for good. I have seen many Tanzanians returning to Tanzania after their education because of their desire to be a part of Tanzanian Dream. Nigeria's "strong" economy is probably owned by few multi-billionaires, while Tanzania's "weak" economy is under majority of Tanzanians, and that's the difference between the two. I have learnt how to didistinguish between the economy on paper and the real life economy. Education in all levels and healthcare is free in Tanzania. I would love to learn more about Nigeria.

naijabuff: WHY DO WE PROVIDE ASSITANCE TO COUNTRIES LIKE TANZANIA AND KENYA ,WHEN THESE DUMMIES TREAT NIGERIANS WITH SO MUCH DISRESPECT. IMAGINE BEING DENIED ENTRY INTO THEIR COUNTRIES SIMPLY BECAUSE YOU ARE NIGERIAN? THESE ARE THE SAME TANZANIANS THAT NIGERIA DONATED FOOD AID TOO JUST A COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO.

WHY SHOULD WE WASTE OUR LITTLE RESOURCES ON COUNTRIES THAT TREAT US WITH SUCH CONTEMPT.

KEEP IN MIND THE INDIVIDUAL WHO WROTE THIS PIECE IS A RESPECTED CATHOLIC PRIEST.
WE NEED TO DEMAND ACTION FROM OUR GOVERNMNET . COUNTRIES THAT TREAT NIGERIANS WITH CONTEMPT SHOULD BE BLACK LISTED AND NO AID PROVIDED TO THEM IN ANY WAY.

WE NEED TO LET THEM KNOW WUSSUP.

123xyz: Nigerians are readily welcome in Kenya yet Kenya borders Tanzania in the south. Nigerians are the finest if you ask me (am a Kenyan). SO i think Tanzania has a problem.
