RedHotChic: Were countries like USA, Hong Kong,Australia, Canada etc not colonized? Are you seriously making the comparison with USA, Australian and Canada. Umm. . . the people that colonized it basically killed off the Indigines and took over. That comparison holds no water. Putting people that having only skin color in common and then others that think their skin color make them superior and thus should treat others like crap is different hon. |

RedHotChic: They either shut the hell up or do something about it by financing the host communities effectively. Igbo traders as rich as they are can afford to sponsor college fees for 50 indigenes and so on, that way it will reduce the bad belle effect and allow them do their business normally. You think the white man is a fool for paying huge taxes to sustain the poor among them? So sponsoring people to get an education (societally accepted as upward mobility mechanism) is not as important as basically bribing the government to get people to not act barbaric. Good idea! The white man and the poor among them don't work like that. The white man is not afraid the poor who don't want to advance will chop them up or burn them for not bribing. Everyone pays taxes not just the rich or those willing to work. The whites pay taxes as does the black, asian and whomever works or lives. But maybe some one somewhere might think your advice makes sense. |

okunoba: from tpia and a man wearing western clothes doesn't mean he hates traditional outfits. and even if he does, so what? Them tell you say oyibo met you wearing all these so-called traditional outfits? no be una loincloth una tie for waist?
from tpia You must be very bush for saying this. Are you typing from the village.
from whatever90 by d way ur english is kaputt,why?
These are from our women who obviously hate their identity, their roots and what makes them members of the human race. These ladies are telling us we must speak English , not come from the village and wear western cloths before we can pass as a full member of the human race. Colonial mentality at full force. Tell the french to speak good English, and they will tell u it`s not their native tongue so y should they. speaking it is good enough. Thank you. Its so wierd because when you analyze most of these post the colonial mentality and inferiority complex is so obvious but they themselves cannot see it, thus they boil it down to something else (stupidity, inadequecy and whatever else to demean). Too bad the truth hurst. |

RedHotChic: Stop blaming Europe and oyinbo because they brought light for you guys and you guys would've resisted them yet you accepted but when you can't manage yourself now, you are blaming oyinbo. If we can stop pointing fingers at who is responsible for our wahala in Nigeria and blame ourselves, we may be closer to atonement but all these denials are getting on my nerves. Nigerians, accept your failures and learn from it. WHenever you accept and believe the fact that Europeans came into Africa and divided it according to the resources they wanted. Put (pit) people that had nothing in common apart from skin color in the same countries (pit them together) is when you will underdstand that they screwed things up. Till then you will call it bringing light. It turns out that if they had not colonized progress would still have been had if not faster. The crap they call countries where they got one group to rule so the other could hate (the Rwandan genocide) is some of the amazing light they brought. Lets wise up and stop pretending and claiming people are complaining and being ungrateful. This is neither uncle Tom's Cabin nor Boondocks (Uncle Ruckus). |

RedHotChic: When i talk now, they say I hate northerners but how will a country work when you are trying so hard to reason with a bunch of people that has an IQ similar to that of a cow?. I am not mad at anybody but Lord Lugard that amalgamated Northern and southern Nigeria. At this point time, there seems to be no solution to this mayhem and only secession can solve it.
T[b]hose claiming the ibos are the worst hit should shut up[/b] because plenty yorubas, efiks etc are affected too. [b]The ibos seems to get the raw end of the deal most times because:[/b]1) They are largely christian and the perpetrators of this crime know that they have more chances of nailing a christian by killing an ibo than a yoruba who may be their fellow jihadist.
2) A lot of Efiks, Urhobos, Ijaws and ibibios are easily mistaken for igbo. I am guilty of that too.
3) Igbos have a lot of trading business and the success that follow may be an attraction for these hungry northerners who will gain from looting their properties physically and emotionally inflicting pain on them so that they feel what they are going through everyday. i think its time for these successful igbo traders to pump more money into their host community, try and energize the youths towards doing something fruitful with their lives besides almajiri. That way, they will have less touts roaming the streets of the north otherwise, I am afraid it will remain this way OR let the various state govts TAX igbos more to sustain their jobless citizens. That is how its done in America unless the igbos don't want peace in their lives. You can't be living in plenty while your neighbour is hungry because a hungry man is an angry man. O pari. I don't get it . Those claiming Igbos are the hardest hit but then you go on to explain that the Igbos are hit the most because they are largely Christian and have business etc. Wouldn't that not make them the hardest hit. You are making an argument then refutting your argument. Appearantly if the Igbos are the hardest hit because they are easy targets then your Yoruba theory doesn't really add up. |

Everyone is limiting natural hair styles to Afro and dreads there are many other natural hairstyles. It is slavery mentality that our hair most be soft for us to be attractive or straight or have some type of Europeanized trait. Accept it or not that is the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth. When I started going natural I was approached with certain remaks that makes it obvious the issues we have with our selves. I don't have dreads, afros or braids and my hair is natural and not straightened.
Ps. for people showing Beyonce and her smiles, her smile does not mean lack of self hate. She has been wearing longer and longer weave. I have seen her permed hair and its not that long, nor that blond nor that thick. She has been gradually getting lighter (lighting effect on videos). She lost a ton of weight (she was not fat before but lost weight to fit into the western ideal of beauty which is bone thin). She even advised her viewers or what ever not to go on the diet that she went on because it is very "unhealthy" but she kept the weight off. She got boob implant. Yes oh yes Beyonce practices but I know the nay sayers will give every other reason for her behavior as not self hate. Too bad y'all don't hear. |

Generalisation isn't the way to go in times of dispute.Plain ignorance.Very annoying. This is not paper work but human lives.

KarmaMod: Madam hair/here is still making fun of typos. O ga o
I mentioned because you don't know whether it's her real hair or not. I know it's shocking to you that some black women have long hair
and where did I say it doesnt break hairline? Having comprehension problems? What I SAID is that there are plenty of ways of wearing one that WONT destroy your hair Oooo. Anyways in case you have comprehension problem go call Essence and talk to the woman so she can tell you from her mouth that that is not her hair. Most people with hair lines like that won't keep doing their hair (natural hair) like that. So the only thing that will make you stop braiding your hair with a- bag-o-weave is to call her so she can explain her hair line problems |

Damest09: @ savanaha and fayahsoul
I don't understand why some people want their opinions to rule out everyones opinions. Leave women to do as they wish. Take my hair as an example; my hair is as tick as it can be and very hard to leave natural, unbraided for more than a week or at most two weeks, i can't even pack the hair or comb it well to look nice, tell me, do you expect me to go about with an unkept hair looking like a something else?? I enjoy spending on my hair and will spend as much as i want, not because i want to be acceptable and with or without my hairdo, i command attention as i want so i do things because 'i love me'.
You got propblem with women getting their hair done the way they want?? then deal with it or you probably want to have numerous post you decided to play dumb.
Both of you should just be quiet and find something better, profitable and rewarding to talk about. Face the reality that afro hair is difficult to manage. I don't even know if you are guys or ladies, whatever gender you are, FACE REALITY and step out of the dream world. My hair is thick (tick) too. Extremely thick and curly but I love my body to the extent that I find other ways to make it work apart from a perm. I don't think natural hair is unkempt I think we judge unkept according to the lessons that the white man has taught us. Back to slavery. . . . |

In primary one I got involved in nasty things with a girl am sharing my desk with. We do play with each other's thing during teaching. One day after break time, we did it and guess what happen. She was feeling the pepper side her and started crying. Because she was the initiator of the act then she could report the case to the teacher. The girl also used to eat clay meant for our handwork then. I guess is Emere girl. She died while we are in primary 5. May her soul rest in peace This might have been the creepiest if not the nastiest thing I've read. |

KarmaMod: How are weaves breaking hair if the hair itself is braided underneath? Many ways to do weaves that don't damage your hair but have fun foaming at the mouth with rants sha 
and no one is going off topic. It should be quite OBVIOUS that the point of the pics is to show that added hair isnt something NEW Go on Youtube if you really didn't know weaving hair often breaks on hairlines. Weren't you the one that mentioned the Essence lady that her hair line starts at the back of her ear. bettes: [color=#006600][/color]
Mrs Thomas Edison of hair,if you want to go around looking like 'jambo jambo' no problem you are entitled to dress the way you want,but to now try to force your opinions on other people now thats madness. I think you should put your money where your mouth is start an NGO and campaign against the usage of wigs,perms,deodorants and so on,that might actually get you the attention you are in desperate need of. Your funny. I burst out laughing at work when I read this. Now people are wondering what is so hilarious. Thank for the Thomas Edison comment I guess? Anyways stop being angry about the truth weaves adn perms damage hair. Wigs are trifling in common words. End.
