^^^^ PDP doesn't work like that though

Nigerians dont respect themselves PERIOD why is everyone crying kini big deal?

Rebarobyn:
this is exactly my point, when obama didn't come to Nigeria, it was as if we were gonna die, we've been liberated since 1960 but we are still colonised in our minds. So what Hilary stepped foot in Nigeria and we are suddenly blessed

and Nigeria does have colonial mentality, Prince charles goes to visit emir of sokoto, so wetin you dey yarn?

so America is safe?? what about the suicide bombings and serial killers? how many people were killed in the recent Iraqi war when the non-existent WMDs were being searched for by America, which killings are worse than the thousands of innocent civilians and chidren that were killed and even american soldiers were involved in rape and unwarranted killings? Pls stop supporting America b'cos you've lost faith in your own country, they are not saints either


but I definitely don't support the undiplomatic manner in which she was received anyway.

WHOA!!! LOL whether Iraq or not those things you listed that the American soldiers do in Iraq, are the same things Nigerian soldiers do to their own country rape, kill and murder all day every day. Americans ATLEAST have the dignity to treat their own well. Nigerian soldiers treat everyone like shit unless you have money but In Nigeria those who have money, is small compared to those who dont.

and I haven't lost faith in Nigeria But i have lost faith in the government and many people!!!! But i will never lie to myself and say Nigeria is a great nation or Giant of africa. Nigeria isn't a good country because they don't respect themselves, exactly what Wole soyinka said. Only a country like America can tell Nigeria where it needs to improve, cause Britico peeps dont give a shit about us.

EXACTLY -America's corruption atleast has officials who reinvest back in the American economy while making money for themselves. Nigeria corruption is TAKIN TAKIN TAKIN and not investing in better roads, schools, low income housing or anything.
Americans who are corrupt can never make money and live in a shit hole for a country. Nigerians just keep taking money and except the way Nigeria is.
I live in Yankee,Everyone is living comfortably senators take trains even Barack Obama had a nice small house ,one car and the vice president Joe biden took the train for 20 YEARS, up till he became Vice president.
In Naija Senators will have 16 fleet car Big house ect nonsense,

ME ohh i have no problem with Americas form of corruption but Nigeria's corruption is just looting like thieves. And they dont care about the economy.

manuel:
for once Yar'adua has pleased me. Lemme say i personally dont like that Hillary Clinton of a lady. I do not see sincerity in her inner being to help Africa. I believe she is just yielding to Obama's (her boss) demands. bravo yara'promising

What are you saying Nigeria has been on clintons mind since Bill clinton was president. Im sure you dont reside in America because if you did you wouldn't be talkin such Rubbish, Obama himself didn't want to go to Nigeria.
ALL NIGERIANS OR ALL AFRICANS IN AMERICA LOVE HILLARY

Rebarobyn:
I agree diplomacy must be shown at face level even if all is not well.

but America deserves such treatment at times, they blab so much about the flaws of other countries when they are no better. the world has worshiped that country so much that they now think they are the savior of the world, wetin she go do for naija sef? I watched her on TV yesterday when she reacted quite rudely to a question she misinterpreted during a press conference in DRC.

America has Flaws FAR less then Nigeria. What do you mean wetin she go do for naija sef? isn't Nigeria a third world country who NEEDS advice from a top leading developed nation. Lol as if Nigerians aren't dying to leave Nigeria. Nigeria is even blessed to have her step foot in that country.  You said"wetin she go do for naija sef?" you might aswell ask "wetin naija peeps dey do for yankee, Jand, South africa, Spain, Portugal, Italy etc, ?America must be doing something right because people aren't dying to leave it.

simmy:
on the contrary, i gathered that twas the american govt tht snobbd 9ja and didnt intimate the feds with info abt hillary's itinery and plans. they said it ll compromise her security

tijehi:
A host country should be informed of any intending visit by a foreign diplomat. Fine Nigeria is corrupt, our government is not living up to
expectations, yes we have so much unscrupulous people at the helm of affairs, but this does not excuse what Hilary and her people did.
I'm not making any excuse for the kind of country we have today, but please, lets be truthful, its not as if we are the only corrupt nation in the world. What about the recent discoveries as regards corruption that has been uncovered in the U.S. in recent times (since the recession hit them hard).
Okay, they made excuses for not informing FG of her intending visit based on security reasons. The Nigeria government might not be what we desire it to be, but I know that as per security concernin a top diplomat like Hilary, FG would have really set up a tight one around her.
It is wrong what the American emabssy did by not informing FG, I think they should apologise.
And for all you haters of your own country, Nigeria can become better today, tomorrow or in the near future.

America will not try such with Libya.

Idont blame them. Who feels safe in Nigeria sef? to tell the truth , After what the whole World saw fed gov police kill the Boko haram people, not even an ounce of proof, that all the people killed were in Boko haram. Nigeria is not a safe country if the robbers dont get you, the Fed Government will.

mehn dis shit is disgusting is this what Obasanjo calls DEMOCRACY i mean it doesn't make sense. The south better wisen up and form an opposition party who is strong in numbers something like the US's democrat and republicans because all these small parties in the south isn't takin the country anywhere. i mean the past elections have had like 23  different presidential candidates

The PDP might try and be slick and give it to Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi . LOL but hes a fake under the PDP too so,

thieves dey in every tribe 

Tinubu might be alittle iffy but the guy is better then what we have now and seems  to be the head of the leading opposition behind him is FASHOLAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!

i dont see anyone from around the country beating the pdp without tinubu and his party's help

GO TINUBU for now,  lol

SHeeet mehn who the hell does this guy think he is i mean ah Nigerians always try to use big words. They should be simple and straight to the point Like America.

literacy has nothing to do with poverty in nigeria there are alot of jobless graduates esp in the west

man that is US

wow people should be scared it looks like they were all hand picked for top positions- ITS THE FULANI OLIGARCHY

@sjeezy8

I can tell you for peanuts, 90% of governors and pastors or imans cannot brandish their tax receipts for this year.

you sound like all those fanatical optimists who aim to generate water out of air and quench the thirst of millions over a period of 1 thousand years

far from a fanatic optimist, im an Economist and i see Nigerias first problem is its weak middle class. Nigeria cant change, until the Gap between the poor and rich is made smaller. That can only be achieved through proper taxation. The payment of taxes is like investing in the economy and the enviorment you live in. If we keep bringing china to invest in Nigeria we wont own Nigeria china will, so when they want to raise prices they will do so.

Like i said in different threads the PDP is for the detriment of Nigeria.

The north have always been poor, the governments in the South east and South west are becoming PDP states. As long as the PDP are in the governments, the poverty rates will continue to rise especially in the south west, where they are heavy.

Afaukwu:
Dem dey oppress Igbos, the people dey get better and better than their oppressors. Who talk say God no dey??

you sound so DUMB no one got better the north west and south south aren't opressing igbo. The Elite of everytribe are opressing everyone. you are very senseless, igbo leaders who've become PDP are opressing their own people. You sound very stupid,senseless and above all ignorant by pointing out the higher poverty rates of other regions and boasting that the south east is doing better, when its rates have also gotten higher.

REBRAND NIGERIANS NO ONE IS READY TO SPREAD THE WEALTH THROUGH TAXES.

No one pay substantial taxes so we get what we pay for. Poor roads, Poor health, Corrupt police, No 24 lights, Bad sanitation.

Until everyone who is making the most money pays the most taxes then nothing will change

KEN NNAMANI is moderate so was OBASANJO- i think anyone from the PDP stands a chance of winning. Also reports have said that OBJ is getting out of control within the PDP and trying to take it away from its founders(the Elite north), there are two sides now OBJ vs IBB.

KEN NNAMANI and his pdp supporters have sided with IBB.

Igbos and easterners should not be fooled by this man, when OBJ ran for president, majority of yorubas didn't support him even though he was Yoruba. They knew it was a gimmick and were right. SHINE YO EYES OHHH

But if it floats igbos boats, the pdp will elect an igbo president, Igbos will see he was fake (like yorubas knew about OBJ)and come to their senses on how Nigeria really is.  That there are just as many corrupt igbos, as yorubas, as fulani-hausas.

Anyone who isn't with the pdp and is for a better Nigeria should win
but if it takes KEN NNAMANI to make the EAST shine their eyes then so be it. The Aftermath of another failed pdp presidency by an igbo after a fulani who was after a yoruba lol. Everyone will see tribes don't matter.LOL

Nezan:
No body goes into politics and become the same

True sha but Nigerian politicians are blatant criminals

make money and mind my damn business as i've been doin

^^^ guy you make no sense
