Thanks for making me laugh with those AA inventions.
I'm not saying whites are superior race. No!!!
But 80% of inventions in America was done by white people. Whether Germans,French or whatever those inventions we're from white people.

Glad to have put a smile on your face.

So you know it's wrong English to make a statement like: 80% of American inventions were made by Germans.

That is wrong: it is no longer an american invention. American inventions are inventions by people within the boundary of america.

You do not know much about white people with your feeling comfortable with them: Do not trust them and do not loop them together.
Not all whites are white. Not everyone that is devoid of melanin is considered white.
It was only recently that scandinavians accepted that Italians were white.

See ehnnn if not that sleep dey my eye I for finish you. But it's not worth my sleep.
U skipped many questions I asked.
Like I said it's not all AA that are like this
Just a bunch of them both in the hood and cities. The worst is those hood boys who got money from gang or crack
Until you travel to U.S and interact with AA's that's when u understand what I'm saying

Son, since I moved to this place, here is no summer that I dont drive in from Niagara in Ontario to the US to see my kids that are studying in US. I have a lot of AA as friends.
No wahala, we can continue the debate tomorrow

I'm off to sleep.

My final word here is if someone doesn't like the situation, move from that circle.

If you are seeing a lot of AA guys jobless and loafing around perhaps you need to move out of the hood and go where the creme de la creme are.

For those talking about the girls, go on LinkedIn but make sure your profile and brain are good, so the girls do not look at you as ghetto trash as well.

Africa will rise again (don't know about Nigerians, maybe until we stop our victim mentality)
God bless us all and Goodnight

ChizzyBuna:
Nah bruh
Someone said 80% of inventions in America was done by black slaves
80% ohhhhh not 20% but 80%
Meaning everything from trains,cars,telephone, and all were invented by black slaves.
I proud to be black but this wan off me I just dey laugh since
80%

But I have just explained to you that these inventions you are talking about were mostly not invented in America. If you bring inventions from American alone, the black americans will take the lion's share of inventions. Dont add European inventors just because they are white

Even if the inventions were small, we are talking about quantity

ChizzyBuna:
God bless you. You just answered yourself
Lol Frederick was born in USA where he was taught physics which made him invent those things.
So they didn't teach Africans physics that's why they couldn't produce those things like trains, satellite abi

Aba people use machines created by Chinese to make goods
Did Aba boys invent the generator and sewing machine and computer they are using to produce those goods?

The generator they use to power their shops who invented it?
The silk material they use who invented Silk lmao
You must be a comedian

My dear, The study of math, physics, chemistry, astronomy, metallurgy, medicine, navigation, architecture began in Africa.

If Mr Jones learnt physics in school, it is because someone in Africa, taught someone in Europe, who taught someone in The US who taught Jones.

At least the origin of this knowledge goes back to Africa.

Its insulting that you think so low of Africans. and you are projecting this self-hatred to African Americans.

Like I told you the biggest libraries of the ancient world was in Africa. Africa was the center of knowledge

and so you know, silk was not invented by an american but discovered by a Chinese woman.

I dont get why you want to elevate white americans to god status. They have nothing. They only know how to hype themselves

ChizzyBuna:
So you mean that Africans invented all these powerful tools but can't invent ordinary gun to defend themselves when white people came to destroy them??

Why didn't Africans fight back?
Because if they invented so much that means that they should also invent weapons since that period was an era of aars and conquest.

You keep exposing your delusion

Have you heard of the slave trade? Do you know why Africans did not fight back? It was a TRADE. Very few slaves were kidnapped. It was a TRADE.
Do you know how angry one of the kings in Bonny island was when he heard that slavery was going to be abolished. ( Bro, go and research)

Go and read of Madam Tinubu and King Tegbesu, and Nwaubani Ogogo. You will know why slave trade was never stopped by Africans.
Who sold Olaudah equiano? Who sold Jaja of Opobo? They were sold by their kinsmen

Always remember that slavery was a trade from the locals to foreigners

ChizzyBuna:
Why did Frederick Jones not invent AC generator here in Africa
So he waited until he was brought to America before he invented all these things.
this guy your delusion is amazing
I'll wait for ur answer
Why did all these inventions happen because the slaves where in America ?

First off, you need to stop referring to someone you are debating with as delusional. It's wrong practice. I have been on nairaland since 2006 so I am not a young lady and I should be accorded respect.

Now back to our debate. The victor in war writes history. Africa had inventions but these were destroyed. Join the facebook The Nigerian Nostalgia. You will see journals shared of white people marvelling at the system of governance and amenities in Africa. Worthy of note is the Benin kingdom. I am not from Benin.
So my dear, we had inventions. They just destroyed them

Now Frederick Jones did not wait to get to Africa. He was born in the US so he had to invent there. Have you gone to Aba and seen the magic that the young men do there? Does it not tell you that Africans have some extreme intelligence?

ChizzyBuna:
The phone you are using
A black man invented it too right?
The ship that whites used to travel the Atlantic to carry slaves, a black man invented it right?
You are showing me mailbox invented by black man.
Now answer this
Why didn't the black man invent those things here I Africa
Why did he invent these things when he was brought to America?

Africans invented ships actually. http://www.taneter.org/maritime.html I also attached a screenshot about the oldest evidence of boating in the world.
Africans invented so much. They were destroyed.
Africa had the two greatest libraries in the ancient world.
Till date, white people cannot figure out how africand built the pyramids of Egypt or the Benin Moat in Edo state.
So they destroyed the moat.

The father of Medicine is not Hippocrates from Greece, but Imhotep from Africa. Imhotep (through disciples and apprentices, not directly) taught Hippocrates medicine and when they conquered africa they changed the story

Google will lie and tell you that it was the American Wright brothers who invented the plane but it is a big lie. The first person in flight was Alberto Santos a Brazilian. Trains were invented by the British. Africans invented ships

Frederick Jones, a black boy invented the AC, Generator, refrigeration for trucks.

White americans hardly invent anything. They only know how to dominate google search engine so their names come out on first click

Black Americans could hardly get anything patented https://www.investopedia.com/contributions-black-inventors-industrialization-5207956 https://www.blackenterprise.com/black-history-month-inventions-black-slaves-denied-patents/

ChizzyBuna:
Hahahaha hahahaha
OmG
You say 80% not 20 but 80% of inventions where made by blacks in America
Omo!!!!
So a coconut scrapper, a headrest, a steam proppeller, wooden bed, ladder, biscuit cutter, self levelling table,have attachment

This is what you call ground breaking invention

Bro , u made me laugh so hard
So this is the 80% of invention in America
You must be delusional

White people are inventing trains, areoplane, electricity, oil refinery, gigantic ships and your are here showing me shampoo headrest, biscuit cutter invented by black people during that time.
Hahahaha bro you're funny.

Do me a favor and Google search who invented cars, telecommunication,spaceships, nuclear power
Then screen shot it for me

Okay perhaps I did not explain well. In America about 80% of the inventions were from the black people.
We are not inventions from whites in Europe because we are not talking about inventions in the world but about inventions in the US.
And I can tell you that whites in the US hardly invented anything.

The first car was invented by Carl Benz a German. The spaceship was invented by a team of Russians

You would need to do a lot of research.
Bro, I know my stuff: there are very few non-black american inventions.

To the guys looking for AA women on twitter and IG, why not go on LinkedIn and try to chat up those that went to Ivy league schools or those with Magna Cum Laude and Summa Cum Laude beside their names.

You went on sites like twitter and IG and you complain about the calibre of people you found there. Go on LinkedIn let those girls school you

ChizzyBuna:
Name 20 things a black man in America invented during that period.

Did a black man invent Electricity?
Did a black man invent Silk clothing?
Did a black man invent cars?
Did a black man invent plastic?
Did a black man invent light bulb?
Did a black man invent spaceship?
Did a black man invent telecommunication
Did a black man invent radio?
Did a black man invent X Ray?
Did a black man invent camera?
Did a black man invent aeroplane?
Did a black man invent chemistry?
Did a black man invent nuclear power?

I'm waiting for you to tell me the 80% of things that you say a black man invent in the U.S
80% please tell me

First off, no race invented electricity

https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.blackenterprise.com/black-history-month-inventions-black-slaves-denied-patents/amp/

https://theconversation.com/americas-always-had-black-inventors-even-when-the-patent-system-explicitly-excluded-them-72619

Please check these in the screenshot as well. was going to upload but file is heavy

you would need to do more research on your own. Like I said slaves were property so could not own patents

ChizzyBuna:
Simple
We have very corrupt leaders, who do not give a damn about quality of life of it's citizens. That is the curse of Africa
The European are blessed with leaders who care about the quality of life of it's citizens.
In Nigeria and some African countries
No electricity 24/7
No basic human right
No clean water
No technology
For a continet to develop it needs this basic amenities.
Because those in charge to make life easy for Africans are very corrupt,greedy and heartless.
Corruption is a reason why Africa is stagnant
Until we get rid of this corruption nothing will change.


[/b] Those Ancestors did all those sacrifice just for their next generations to be successful, what did the next generation of blacks do They decided to be LAZY That is my point!!!
It's like a father who worked day and night to make his children succeed
Only for his children to turn out drug addicts,gang members and strippers.
Us from Nigeria understand what those ancestors did, that is why we develop ourselves to make them proud.
Those ancestors didn't fight all that fight for this generation of blacks to be lazy and useless. If those ancestors come back to 2021 and see how lazy black Americans are, they will shake their heads in sorrow.



We don't go to U.S and look down at THE ANCESTORS for what they did for us blacks.
We are only angry that all they fought for will go in vain. When their current generation is busy playing victim and getting lazy instead of developing, working hard and evolving to make their ancestors struggle not go in vain.
We appreciate what they did, that is why we put so much effort to make money and not play the victim card.
If those ancestors where to time travel to 2021 they will be disappointied at how lazy and irresponsible this generation of black Americans are.

The Ancestors saw far WORSE
They were hanged, lynched
But that they kept their head up high and still pushed through
Despite the terrible horrors they faced which is 10 times worse than what this generation is facing.
But did that stop them from pushing ahead No!!!
It's not an excuse to be lazy
If your Ancestors faced far worse treatment and still didn't play victim card
Now that things are a bit way way better still these generation are playing victim card.
When they didn't even see half of what their Ancestors saw?
There is no excuse to be LAZY!!!

Who do you think provided the basic amenities in the US. It was not the white man. 80% of inventions and amenities were black made but slaves cannot own right to inventions.

My question is why are we upset that they are playing the victim card when we as Nigerians play the victim card ALL the time.

The same way we are shocked about their "laziness" is the same way that they are shocked at our stupidity of not being able to vote out bad leaders.

So when you say "African americans stand up and work" let's also remember to tell ourselves "Nigerians stand up and get rid of these corrupt people in power"

The problem of Nigeria is not the leaders. The problem of Nigeria is the people with victim mentality who will not rise and change their leaders but prefer to lament daily.

So you know, a lot of those boys and girls on crack and weed became addicted in utero (in the womb) by their addicted mother who was supplied enough crack by white people. They are also doing it to the native Indians here so you have newborns addicted already.

To any African American reading this, I apologise for the comments here.

It is easy for a bird with full feathers to fly around and laugh at the one with a broken wing inside a gold cage.

Do you know that african American women have the highest mortality rate in America even when they have the money to pay for medicine and care. They are attended to LAST.

Do you know that there is a monthly quota in the US police of how many african American boys are arrested. There is no quota for white boys.

Do you know where the word "m*therf*cker" comes from? Your white people forced boys to sleep with their mothers to raise children to work in the slave farm.

My dear if you come from a family that saw these horrors for 400 years, it will take God to restore your thinking faculty

That victim mentality is as a result of trauma.

Come to Nigeria, people are sitting down and complaining against the government. Go and get voters cards then? No way, they won"t. Victim mentality

Come to Canada. See the native Americans doing the same thing. They have been broken.

Have you seen a broken person before, who does not believe in themselves. Who does not feel they are worth anything. These people suffered rape (even the men were raped, children were raped), hanging, slavery, for 400 years. It wont be easy for them to recover.


It is not time for us to point accusing fingers at them until we turn Nigeria into Utopia. This same OP opened a different thread gloating about how he wasn't going to pay down the loan he took from a loan company. He is killing someone's business, rendering people jobless and coming here to tell BAs how they don't want to work.

There is something inherently wrong with a black man.

OP those people are beaten down, traumatized. First off, it was not the capitalist way that made the US a land of opportunity.
It was on the blood of their fathers that America became a land of opportunity.

If Africans and Nigerians are so resourceful and hardworking why cant we turn our own country and continent into a land of opportunity.

If not for them and their sacrifices, Africans will still be made to do the video editing work you did and the whites will not pay.

We go and take advantage of what they built and look down on them.

Do you know that African American boys are targeted to be convicted and sent to prison WHETHER THEY COMMIT A CRIME OR NOT just so that they lose the right to vote.

Nigerians go there and turn their noses up at them yet cannot go back home and make Nigeria great.

Uyi168:
..
And from her other thread about her dirty counsin, she claimed the counsin who is 28 was way other than her..
Meaning she should be around 24/25..and her son that was caught with hardcore porn in his phone is 17...

In all, is like she gave her at a very tender age of 7 or 8.

Nawa.

wealthyhenry:
Your marriage is 5years and you have a son that's 17years old according to one other thread you created.

Is God not wonderful?

Over here it is common. You have people that live as common-law partners for 10 years, have kids and maybe -MAYBE - after that time they get married. So yes, you can have a 17 year old with a five year old marriage.

And you know that some single parents finally get married, or don't you?

I just went through some of your topics and figured out why you made this comment

barnny:
We all know getting a job in this country is another hell graduates is going through till date, talk more of getting a dream job.

I will try to be brief as much as I can.

Haven applied for so many jobs and attended some interviews, I finally saw one graduate trainee job (my kind of dream job tho) as at January this year. Although is a banking job which is actually my dream job. I wrote their aptitude test which I passed. We were eight that was invited for their interview out of over 70 candidates that applied and I was lucky to be part of those eight. To the glory of God I scape through at the first stage of the interview. At the Final stage of the interview (One on one interview) was where my righteousness or should I call it "Being Truthful" deprive me of my dream job. You may ask how did I know, but the truth is, that is what deprived me of getting the job. I don't want to explain further on that just to cut the story short.

The question they ask me that lead to my disqualification was: "Do you know anyone in this bank?" And my reply was "Yes". And truly I know someone working there but he wasn't even the one that ask me to apply. I only came across the job and I applied. But I never knew I'm suppose to say NO, I also never knew the answer will snatched the job away from me.

After all the sacrifices, sleepless nights on night journey from one town to another, After almost getting an accident on these our bad road, not to talk of the time and resources I have invested in getting this job. look at my life?
See where my righteousness has brought me into?

Just yesterday some of my colleagues got invitation for their medicals. And since that yesterday I have been so deeply down. I feel depressed. I feel like just giving up. Why me? What is really wrong somewhere that I don't know?Just imaging the kind of opportunity I have missed even when I know age is no longer on my side when it comes to this kind of job...

Honestly I'm tired. I feel like not going to church today. I am confused and feel like it's over.

Sorry to hear this, but it is not that question that made you lose that job.
There were 8 finalists but there is always a preferred candidate.

In 2007 I interviewed for LNG (my dream job). We were 2000 candidates and finally reduced to 4 but I was not the preferred candidate. In same 2007 I had a bank interview. From 400 we were 15 left. I failed my interview ( I know because the interviewers told me I was too opinionated and too argumentative) I was basically asked to leave the interview room. But what is yours is yours. I got the job.

If I had been in LNG, I would still be in LNG, but my stay in the bank (it was difficult and toxic) hardened me, built me and pushed me to where I am now (and I love my life at this moment)

This job was not for you

AltarBoy1:
Just like the story of Kankara school boys. See new clothes on them. Who took their measuremnet for the new cloths. Did the officials know when they will be released for them to get the cloths ready. Or the boys all have new cloths at home waiting for a day like this.

Even a toddler knows that this kidnap is staged.

These boys look well-fed

zedegit:
The man doesn't provide for her. He's a loafer; always in one betting shop or the other but feels entitled to food.

He bares her from coming home after 7pm and often locks her out of the house.

Yet same nincompoop comes home anytime he wants. What should she do?

She's tired of his nonsense.

Husband might not be the problem. Let's hear his side of the story

In Mosdii's voice: Nigerian women are..... - sound familiar?

uuzba:
I used to give "lift" to people before on my way to work and back. People generally understood and paid same money they pay for bus. N200, N300..
That kind small change.
One day I carried 4 people. 3 men, one lady and we were in traffic, all that kind of stop-go traffic.
Me I was tired and upset. The guys already understood and were just chilling and looking. I was using AC to avoid smoke and fumes from other vehicles.
Na im, the girl come dey make noise.... mtchew.... mtchew.... mtchew....
Can you imagine?
I'm the one stressing and doing the driving, then you are the only one in the car complaining. And I had covered like 75% of the journey and not even collected the miserable N200 O!
I just parked the car at the next bus stop and told the girl, to get F*** out my car. She can enter any other fine car that is faster than my own.
Girl come shock. She no wan open door.
I got out, went to her side, opened the door and told her to get the f*** out my car with her f***ing N200 before I descend on her.
Na im she carry herself go.
The remaining guys were just chill.
We continued our journey went our separate ways.
Ladies can really irritate car owners. Don't ever enter somebody's car and be forming big.

What if that girl was recently bereaved, or lost her job, or was jilted and she was sighing about the unfairness of life. 95% of the time we are wrong when we assume

Dalil8:
Good for you!

That's what you get for having a sharp tongue.

What is with you youngsters! Don't you calm down to read. She admitted that her sister NOT HER had an verbal altercation with the driver. How does this now translate into her being deserving of a beating?
Read again. She is not the one with the sharp tongue.

edoairways:
Be fair for once, how did gay affected the family structure when it has been in existence? Secondly, how does verbal condemnation treats a menace in the society? Thirdly, how does sexual preference affects performance ( not sexual performance in this case)? . Fourthly, some of you claim to be Christians,is this how to win lost sheeps back to Christ? Did Jesus vehemently condemned the adulterous woman like this present generation of Pharisees and Sadducees?

No condemnation at all, but Jesus always instructed people to stop the sin in question

doxijaw:
The comments on his page says it all.

Igbos are homophobic asf, e be like say na Yorubas go accept this homo thing pass.

Lol, but the subject matter is Igbo

x123xlolls:
[color=#ff0000]This CAN should be arrested. Why bother with our Hijab?[/color] what is the issue in there? are not muslims girls the victims of terror? look at what happened yesterday at zamfara, no any xtian girl kidnapped but the useless bastards are here saying rubbish.bSo you came to a muslim state and want to force them to wear clothes your style ba? are you CAN at least serious? how comes? WE WILL NOT TOLERATE THIS NONSENSE.

...

AND IF THAT IS THE CASE YOUR XTIAN GIRL SHOULD WEAR THE HIJAB ALSO. its in your book....

...

I honestly believe that many Christians criticize Islam, without reading about Islam from reputable Islamic sources. Furthermore, I believe that Christians do not read their Bible. Take, for example, the head scarf, may Christians think that women in Islam are oppressed because men forced them to wear head scarf. How about the hundred of thousands of Muslim women in the West who put Hijab on? Can men force them to do that in the west?? This is just a big lie against Islam.

Have you ever seen Virgin Mary in a movie without headscarf? She used headscarf in normal life.

Hijab is a part of dressing. Sikh wear Turbine. Western women [not Christian Ladies] wear BIKINI. Even then media is not allowed to show First Ladies in their Bikinis !!.

Now let's see what the Bible say about covering womens' head:

Genesis 24 64-66. (New International Version (NIV)

64 Rebekah also looked up and saw Isaac. She got down from her camel

65 and asked the servant, “Who is that man in the field coming to meet us?”

“He is my master,” the servant answered. So she took her veil and covered herself.

66 Then the servant told Isaac all he had done.

67 Isaac brought her into the tent of his mother Sarah, and he married Rebekah. So she became his wife, and he loved her; and Isaac was comforted after his mother’s death.

1 Corinthians 11. (King James Version)

5-6 But every woman that prayeth or prophesieth with her head uncovered dishonoureth her head: for that is even all one as if she were shaven . 6 For if the woman be not covered , let her also be shorn : but if it be a shame for a woman to be shorn or shaven , let her be covered .

10 For this cause ought the woman to have power on her head because of the angels.

13 Judge in yourselves : is it comely that a woman pray unto God uncovered?

Hello, these are students not prayer warriors.
You pray with your head covered.
Nobody sends their child to school to learn how to pray but to study.
When you are not praying, you have no need to cover your hair

I think they just did him a favor. I don't follow Nigerian music but here I am listening to the banned "Thunder fire you"

Childofthelord:
Hi everyone,

My name is Grace, 21yrs, I am in my 3rd year student, pursing a BN degree in Nursing administration (UBC) in Canada. However, since I left Nigeria in 2018, my life never remained the same. Let me start by saying a little about myself.
I come from a Christian home in Nigeria, my parents both attend deeper life.
They are hardcore disciplinarians and prayer warriors. My mum especially, each time i came back from school, my mum searched my bag. I was not allowed to have any social networking apps, not even WhatsApp, my mum always checked my phone. All my parents ever care about is my education and getting good grades. If i am not talking about books, i am not making sense( i was not allowed to attend prom). I had no outfits, just normal clothes and school uniform. I am never allowed to visit friends, go out or have friends over. I spent a large chunk of my time in my bedroom. I do not know how to socialize or communicate with people.
My social life was in bad shape and i never realized it.
I realized that my upbringing and the way i lived my life has really affected me now. I have trouble making friends and even sometimes when people approach me, they go mute after some days, it appears like i cannot keep friends. There are 60 students in my department and i could not make friends with one person, i do not have anyone to check with after an exam or test, nobody checks on me either. I always conatact the professors directly if i have any issues.
To be frank, I did spend 2 years in Unilag before coming to Canada and I had quite a number of friends, many guys were toasting me. I even lost count as some point. But ever since i stepped into this Canada, no guy, i repeat no guy has ever asked me out. white oh, black oh, hispanic oh, nothing. Though i have a number of acquittances but no one to share a drink with or talk about how the day went. This was different from when i was in Nigeria.
Right now I am really trying to make friends but each time i try, the energy is always coming from my end and sometimes they ignore me. I have no best friend, no boyfriend, no padi padi. I believe i have a bright future ahead of me but sometimes i just feel lost with how lonely i get.
Sometimes i feel like there a spirit of loneliness following me, i have no roommates too.
This has not stopped me from doing what i have to do and studying well, but i find it a little disturbing.
Is this normal? for students studying abroad? Maybe I am just different, I dunno.
I am willing to answer any questions?

Hello dear, I'm so sorry to hear that you are facing this here.

First off, you need to find a Nigerian whatsapp group in your area. I know each province has a group.

Now you are not making friends, most likely, you have an unfriendly aura, so people can sense the negative energy even when you try.
Fortunately its easy to take care of it. And I will tell you what worked for my son: Go to the mirror each morning and say " I am happy, I am kind, life is good, I am great at making friends, my friends like me, I am the best"
You might need to say this for months until it gets deep in your spirit and then boom.
Now this is something tried and tested for ME and my kids and not something that I read up.

When you go to the stores, or anywhere attempt simple short conversation. Canadians like to talk.....A LOT.

Finally if you are a Christian, talk to the Lord about it. He knows how to put friends (not sexual ones for now, because you re not married) in your path

I wish you the best and just know that there a few impossibilities in this world
