Monogamy:
So Buhari is to be blamed for the current attack on Solido?

Why do you people like to blame others except yourself?

who carried out the attack? Has the person been known? So why are you ruling out buhari or any other person?

StaffofOrayan:
Seems igbos are the boogeymen of Nigeria!
I used to think it was just victim mentality but it seems it is quite real!
When everyone knows you have useless leaders, this is what happens

do you know the meaning of boogeyman?

Penguin2:
Southeast has only one senator and that is Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe.

who are the senators in the southwest

Simplyleo:
My bad.

I have been corrected, and I just acknowledged the correction above.

I haven't really been to Dubai as a last destination, just about 8 hrs stop-over in a connected flight (of course restricted within the airport).

so you can be reasonable? I have told you that Yoro Móslems are the problem of SW. lol
The Móslem Arabs are also problematic...but at least they have money

Simplyleo:
Qatar a stone throw to UAE? What are you saying?

If I say Oyo is a stone throw to Nigeria, does that make any sense?

lol...Qatar is an independent country... UAE is an independent...they don't share a body...but both share border with Saudi Arabia. So it takes 6hrs to travel from Qatar to Dubai through Saudi Arabia. All of them are the same society. If you have been to one, you have been to all. I don't need visa to go to Dubai once my Qatar visa is valid.
Do you understand?

SarakiBukola:
Selemempe isn't too bright... don't waste your time trying to educate a miracle center graduate. It wouldn't work.

Well that miracle center graduate happens to be one of the 'engineers that built UAE' And I'm telling you again it's delusional to think Nigerians will take any credit for Dubai. Indians built gulf region. After them are Filipinos. Then Arabs before you get Africans. And for your info, we are very infinitesimal here

Simplyleo:
Rossikki will soon give you the most appropriate response.

But before he comes, I will advise you to watch the video so you don't continue talking out of point.

Also, you obviously subscribe to the "Lagos developers" claim. That alone throws your ignorance to the surface.

I repeat...I don't need to watch the video. I live in Qatar. Qatar is just a stone throw to UAE. I have been to Dubai a few times. I work as an engineer myself in Qatar. But it is the height of stupidity for anybody to bring this nonsense here as if it was some achievement.

For every one Nigeria engineer you see in Dubai, you see 10 Indian and 3 Filipino engineers. Even they know they would rather be in their country than take glory for the progress in UAE. One of the richest people in UAE is an Indian. He owns Lulu hypermarket chain.
You also know Vaswani brothers have left Nigeria and now live in UAE.

I have been in Qatar for 6 years. I have worked under 5 Nigerian engineers in oil and gas industry. But I will be stupid to open my mouth and say we are significant in the scheme of things. Because I know the reality on ground. I can speak little Hindi but I don't know even basic Arabic yet I live in an 'Arab' country! Imagine that.

And for your information, most African Americans in Dubai are not on the streets. They mingle with the Europeans.,.they don't know how out-numbered our people here are in the scheme of things

OritoJasi:
Oga rest. You probably didn't even watch the video for you to be yarning this your opata. FYI, unlike ibos that falsely claim to 'develop Lagos', it is African Americans that made the assertion in the video in question, NOT Nigerians as you are falsely claiming in your usual fashion. Besides, no tribe was attributed to the feat. So carry okoto yarns comot here. You guys should seriously work on your inferiority complex, as a matter of urgency. Smh.

I don't need to watch the video to know that anybody who likes the idea that someone claims Nigerians developed Dubai is an idiot. You leave your own country in tatters to go claim glory in another country? Low self-esteem must mean a different thing these days cos between the two of us, the person who is claiming another man's glory is the one with the esteem issues

kevoh:
No autopsy carried out on any of the 50 dead club-goers! Hardly do they carry out autopsies in Nigeria! Just speculations on the cause of death!

Nigeria is a jungle filled with negroes. No sane person deserves to be a Nigerian. A very random country with a deeply primitive 16th century mindset. I had always wanted to come and establish in Nigeria...but after coming back this January, I have since changed my mind to move to Australia, Canada or US.
Because even with your so called wealth, one random act can wipe it off and leave you dead and nobody will even give a fvck.

Rossikki:
Actually it's you with a complex.

That is why you cannot stand positivity shined on your people.

It bites you like scorpion.

Where you feel happy is where they listing woes of Nigerians for you to decry and feel above them.

lol the same people that troll another tribe for saying they developed Lagos (which is partly true btw) are now claiming they developed Dubai? why Dubai? Why not develop Oshogbo and Abuja? Or is it only Dubai that deserves development?

Patriotic Nigerians can sha sound like fools

BOOOMNAIJA:
What is d point establishing millions of schools when the products would not find good employment in the long run.

school is not just for jobs. It builds character, teaches language and arithmetics...basic life skills.

Most of those who would go through these schools would be better for it. Imagine the alternative if there were no schools

Rossikki:
Can you useless secessionists, naysayers, and Nigeria haters see your lives now?

This small girl had never lived in Nigeria, till she decided to return and start a business.

Her family are still in the UK.

She came back alone, to start the business.

If you had this girls' positive mindset, Nigeria would be a paradise by now.

But no. Go and cross the Sahara to be a slave in Libya, or wash plates in Italy, or sell drugs in South Africa.

She used those thousands of dollars instead to set up a thriving business in her fatherland.

Now she's raking in millions of naira a month, as her own boss.

Not through oil and gas.

Not through contracts.

Or drugs/kidnapping.

Or high class olosho services.

Or government connections.

Furniture.

A 26 year old.

Your junior.

Una no get shame.

Buhari is your excuse.

Long may she prosper.

the only thing Nigeria needs is to divide. A country fighting an ideological war can not make meaningful progress.
Sure there would be thousands of people succeeding in the chaos.. but in a country of up to 150 million people, 10 million successful people are not nearly enough.
Many of the 'secessionists and naysayers' would not be those things in their respective new countries. They would just be patriots

Realtalk20:
It's rather unfortunate unprofessional and distasteful

But I don't blame the fulani soley after all yoruba and tinubu refer to ibo as okoros

When tinubu was shown herdsmen attack he asked is evans fulani? Meaning herdsmen are better than the ibo yet you ibo kept mute

You guys did this to yourselves but trying to be politically correct

It's because of you ibo we in the southsouth are disrespeced

Had it been you guys took your rightful position in Nigeria the southsouth would not be disrespected the way we are in Nigeria . Ibo used to be a major tribe in Nigeria but today you guys are a laughing stock

You allowed yoruba push you guys to mockery and uselessness. This is my anger towards you ibos.

Because of you guys we southsouth are not respected because no matter what they see us as you guys junior hence when they treat you guys as slaves how won't they open mouth to call us drunkards

Before I start insulting you, I will give you the benefit of doubt to tell us how we Igbos 'did this to ourselves'

garfield1:
Gowon is from a northern minority who were being marginalized in the northern region infact,regionalism favoured the major ethnicities to the detriment of the minorities.states gave the minorities a bigger say and sense of belonging and again it will help weaken the support the minorities in the east had for Biafra...

Most of the regions were actually created by the British without consulting us while all states were created by nigerians after due consultation so the question of due process does not arise.I prefer states to regions.
Almost all the soldiers that created states are not Fulani's.Gowon as you know is an ngas by ethnicity who are mainly Christians.murtala cksins to be from kano but some sources says hes from plateau or edo.ibb is a gwari man from Niger while abacha claims kano but originally a kanuri from borno so your claim about Fulani's creating States is mainly false

the most important thing is that you agree that states were created from agreed regions arbitrarily. So any sharing formula that uses states is also unfair.
I know you like states, anything that keeps Igbos in Nigeria with you is welcomed by you isn't it?

garfield1:
Even during the first republic,regional creations were difficult that is why only the Midwest region was created.but after that,we dumped regionalism and adopted states and creation of states under subsequent cilivian administration are impossible

who dumped regionalism? Gowon! Why? Who did he consult before creating the first 12 states in 1967? Why couldn't he leave the region's alone like Aguiyi did? Now we are living in states created by fulani soldiers without due process

garfield1:
It is impossible to create States during civilian regimes so the military has to be doing it.state creation is not lopsided.the north is more populous and bigger than the south so it has to have more states.the difference is just two states

so if it was impossible to create states during civilian regime, how did Midwest Region get created out of Western Region in 1964? I'm sure you don't know anything about that...lol

The difference is not just 2 states by the way...Abuja is also treated as a state

garfield1:
Gbam.I love this rebuttal and disclaimer.recruitments are done on state by state basis so the zone with the most states gains

which act of parliament created any of the states? Who were the heads of state when a lopsided state creation was done to benefit the north always?

TMKsouth:
Didn't your economy also shrink from $550 billion to $250B in less than 3 years? Are you for real son? We all know you only became 1st economy after Ngozi cooked the books, the greatest Nigerian scam ever. Pulled the rabbit out of her Houdini Igbo headscarf. But you couldn't sustain it, and yet that same President that halved your GDP is still in power and recuperating in London at your expense We kicked Zuma out.

How much is your annual budget again - $35B for 200 million people? SA easily spends $100B on 60 million lucky souls . Doesn't matter whether we're 2nd, 3rd or10th in Africa, we still 10 times richer than you economic refugees from the Giant Birthing Country of Africa.

We lost control of our cities because we tried to be brotherly but those days are over now, so stop whining about xenophobia. You'll all get deported and SA will once again become the utopia we know it to be. And then you'll hate us even more and troll SA threads all day and night long on Nairaland But that's the closest you'll ever get to anything SA again.

lol... good luck son.

TMKsouth:
Which South African started insults in this thread before you came in and stirred the pot? OP is not South African.

And which post did I cut you off from? U hallucinating man, on both counts.

did the op say he wasn't south African?

TMKsouth:
You're in denial. Everyone knows what Nigerians have done to Hillbrow and surrounds in Johannesburg. They are now no-go areas.

Keep your head in the sand son.

More excuses. Don't take control of your country, blame more Nigerians. In a few years, you will see exactly where you have been heading for the past 15 years. You went from being the largest economy in Africa to being the third...lol... you may soon become the 4th with the rise of Algeria. Who knows, maybe Lagos may even surpass you...since it's currently the 5th ooops

TMKsouth:
First pic is not SA.

Second pic is a typical example of trash left behind by foreign street vendors. It's a well known fact certain people are rapidly turning parts of Joburg into mini versions of their filthy cities back home, hence the 'xenophobic' tensions. With that said, SA cities clean this up every night.

Lol. you guys would ruin that country and blame it on 'certain people'

The name 'bantu' fits your description the most. Lol

TMKsouth:
No, they're your masters coz you suffer from mental slavery. You are in every South Africa thread dissing black people.

Exhibit A - from just today:

lol..I am in every thread responding to black south African's insult on Nigerians. Let's keep it truthful please.
And why did you cut off the post I was replying to?

zhike:
I never saw this kind of dirty in JHB cbd.
Maybe there was a protest

lol...or maybe you mzansi teens are no better than the Nigerians you love to troll

TMKsouth:
You've got serious issues with SA blacks that need tissues . Checkout your white masters also queueing up for booze. Don't act like you don't see them now.

lol..They are not my masters..they were yours until 1994.

I have met 3 white south Africans in Qatar. One was a very beautiful, shapely girl working as an engineer. Very friendly.
Two were my bosses in the company, very friendly and helpful people. I was interviewed by one...a very jovial man who likes to help blacks.
I have only met one black south African in my life and he already left a very very terrible impression that will probably last my life time.

SarakiBukola:
I am the one feeding Bill Gates. I have been doing so since 1988.

Now... go and hawk your gala in Lagos traffic.

I repeat, all your family past, present and future COMBINED can't match a trillionth of Tinubu's achievements.

100% fact and we both know it.

you are an agbero ogbeni

SarakiBukola:


Qatar Petroleum as a maiguard or coke dealer?

Keep dreaming

lol...I'm actually working as an engineer...not that you would know much about that. Considering that you believe only tinubu can work for good companies and only him can be president. I would hazard a guess that you are an agbero mainly
