Us? Who is us? There is no 'us', Nigeria is a nation on paper only

Thank god most nigeria don't share this thought, We should focus more on Developing ourself, How many nairalanders are educated?.

Look at Dangote he is building a refinery(One of the largest in the world) with a total investment capital of $12bn in Lagos because of the opportunity, Not allowing himself be clouded by Tribal/religious view and taking it to his northern state in kano. He is Developing himself, Thinking of making himself more richer and in the process Developing the economy and lifting his country image.

Look at innosson chukwuma he is not allowing himself to be clouded by Tribalism, instead he is focusing on how he will create a good future for himself and his family, He did not wait for a government support to start his business not he uses his brain and time for productive things.

The way Nigerian journalist reports in this country is nothing to write home about.

So what happens if boko haram commander are smiling in court , Were they supposed to be crying .
Or is there a law against Smiling in court, Or will their smile Obstruct justice from being metted out.

Talk of Misplaced Priority.

Ebonyitvnews:
Events relating to the activities of Fulani herdsmen across the length and breadth of the country have stretched my pa­triotic fibre to its limits and Ham­let-like begin to wonder whether I am still a Nigerian or living in the Federal Republic of Nigeria.

The Fulani Republic of Nigeria?

The murderous activities of the Fula­ni herdsmen in Kaduna, Benue, Cross River, Enugu, Plateau and my dear Delta State are putting to test the security agenda of the Bu­hari administration. Whether the indifferent and docile attitude of the government springs from the reality that the nation helmsman is a Fulani and that he is also owner of cattle are subjects to conjecture. But the plea here is that the gov­ernment should not make some of us think especially in the south that there are two sets of Nigeri­ans – the citizens and the subjects. The image of the Fulani Republic of Nigeria staggers imagination.
Today the Fulani herdsmen according to the Global Terror­ism Database rank fourth among terrorists groups and that Boko Haram is a shade ahead the Fulani herdsmen in the areas of bloodlet­ting and senseless killing of inno­cent men and women. It is rath­er unfortunate that these orgies of killing by the herdsmen have not attracted any strong response from the federal government. Even the kidnapping of Olu Falae, a for­mer secretary to the federal gov­ernment and a former presiden­tial candidate could not change the mindset of those who are tempo­rarily holding the reins of power at Aso Rock. But I know that south­erners cannot go to the north and humiliate a northern of the stat­ure of Olu Falae and go scot free. These issues, the executive and the legislative arms of government at the federal level are treating with levity. The Buhari administra­tion should act fast before Fula­ni herdsmen compete for infamy and brutality with IS of the world.
I know that animal husband­ry is an occupation and those who have cows should establish ranch­es for them and that some states can even carve out areas as grazing reserves. All these things are not done and the supporters of Fulani herdsmen would tell us that there is freedom of movement. The con­stitutional provision of freedom of movement should not be equated with the destruction of farm prod­ucts, the raping of women and the unprovoked killing of people. Even more outlandish was the stance of a certain northern governor that some Fulani herdsmen were paid to stop their murderous activities. If we are not living in the Fulani republic, such a governor should be brought to justice by encour­aging Fulani herdsmen to kill in­nocent Nigerians and pay them for doing just that.
Another unfortunate stance of a prominent northern figure, this time, a traditional ruler, was that these Fulani herdsmen are not Ni­gerians. This is a very beautiful line of argument. If these murderous Fulani people are not Nigerians, what are the security forces and allied forces doing to bring them to justice? There are too many lies, half truth and excuses as far as the murderous activities of these Fu­lani herdsmen are concerned and these are the issues giving the agi­tators for Biafra and other separa­tists enough manure for their po­sitions.
While the governor of Enugu state could take solace in weeping, the Ekiti state governor had taken a legal and legislative position by enacting law against unauthorized grazing. The Ekiti governor should be commended but the issue is re­ally beyond him. It needs a federal might to solve it once and for all.
For a leader who promised to do justice to all manners of per­sons, the stance of President Mu­hammadu Buhari is an unfor­tunate disappointment. I was a strong supporter of Buhari before and after the presidential elec­tions. I used my pen to push his policies. But today I am sorely dis­appointed in his handling of the Fulani herdsmen menace. I appre­ciate his fight against corruption and the defeat of Boko Haram. If the president and commander- in- chief of the nation can use half of that energy, the Fulani herdsmen shall be brought under the rule of law.
It is a common knowledge that the Fulani herdsmen are well armed and some of them bearing AK 47, yet other Nigerians with double barrel guns are arrest­ed for not getting license. It thus translates to mean that the Fulani herdsmen are special breed of peo­ple and that they are above the law.
Oweh, a journalist writes from Asaba, Delta State.

The day will we start to Really Develop has a country is the day we stop seeing Everything Through Religious/Tribal Mindset.

The founder of the Dangote Group, has promised to list his Dangote Refinery on the Nigerian Stock Exchange. He also promised to list every single company that would be created by Dangote Group of companies.

According to Premium Times, Dangote stated this on Monday in Lagos during a bell ringing ceremony at the Nigerian Stock Exchange as part of activities to mark his 60th birthday. He said he would ensure the listing of more of his companies on the NSE to deepen the market. Dangote said that the group plans to significantly expand its operations across Nigeria within the next 10 years in a move that would result in an increase of shareholders across the group’s companies to over 2 million.

How do you expect an Igbo man like me to die for a Yoruba or Hausa man? If it were them, would they die for me?

Nobody is asking you to die for yoruba/hausa, What they are asking yo for is Will you die for Nigeria?

This kind of reasoning is what is still keeping us from developing.

nnamdiokere45:
i hear

All this developed country you are seeing are not developed by outsiders, but by the effort of their own citizen.
But Sadly Most nigerian youth today are seeing the world through Religious\tribal view, Our country cannot be developed if we the youth spend most of our time hating each other.

nnamdiokere45:
can nigeria die for me?

Stop Thinking of what nigeria can do for you, And start thinking of what you can do for Nigeria.

corporateDan:
reason?

Because I Love My Country Nigeria

corporateDan:
Please be honest ....is Nigeria worth dying for?

Yes.

No disrespect for your source but it wouldn't hold water anywhere. Ericsson is a private company, who knows what they were up to?
Nonetheless, 53 % is still paltry for the giant. Kenya was at 75 % when you guys were at 44 %. And you saw the trend. If you guys were at 53 % last year, we must have been at 85 % then. And then have increased since last year.

No mention of kenya.

EricBloodAxe:
So if he launched an airstrike on the terrorists like u said then who detonated the chemical weapon?

Mind u intelligence reports has it that the chemical bombs were dropped on the same location twice by syrian forces. I must ask u, how do the rebels get these deadly chemical nerve agents which are termed WMD? Because the rebel groups are funded and rely strongly on western govts for weapons and supplies.

U don't jst stay in a location​ in the desert and prepare nerve agents except you're a govt like the syrian regime. If it were easy to prepare chemical weapons on the streets then isis would have devastated the whole world with it.

Let'sgo over this again

A Brutal chemical attack happen in Syria.

Syrian Government Response: It was as a result of An airstrake against terrorist weapon facility(That is to store Sarin).

Rebel/Terrorist Response: The syrian airforce drop it Chemical weapon on us.

UN Response: We are investigating the matter.

USA Response: Bombarded syrian airfield and kill 7 government forces.

Something is still not right about this story, We need to ask ourselves the obvious question, What does Assad Gains from launching a chemical attack on syria?, why would he do that when he knows what the response would be like.

I believe they have done that

For real??

GERALD710:
Egypt,Ethiopia, Kenya and South Africa are considered to be the nations the US prioritizes the most in Africa, mainly due to the presence of bases in or near all 4 nations, the fight against terror both in Somalia and the Middle East(For example, Mombasa was used as a fueling point for warships en route to Iraq in the Iraq war).
Compare this.
When Nigeria had the post election violence in 2010 that killed over 1000 people after Goodluck Jonathan was elected, Did the US even bother??
Yet when Kenya had its own which killed a similar number of people, The US was all over the country, sending representatives from the State Department and even Koffi Annan himself .

Even last week, some ranchers were attacked in Laikipia and Boris Johnson is now in the country, admiring our armed forces.
Doe Nigeria get the same level of attention??
When Obama came to Africa, which nations did he visit?Not Nigeria!!
Heck even China prioritizes Kenya,Ethiopia,South Africa and Tanzania , because the gateway to the Congo mineral riches passes through the ports of East Africa, West Africa is not seen as a priority. After all, if it is oil, Angola and South Sudan are their main African suppliers.Not Nigeria.

Seriously, The facts that america have bases for their soldiers in your country now translate to you being a top priority in africa.

Who do you think america value the most, Its largest and biggest trading partner in africa(Nigeria), or the location of it Natgeowild Shoot(kenya).
