BusinessRe: How Can We Combat Fraud In Nigeria? by sofadj(m): 12:08am On Jan 04, 2010
"FRAUD" I DONT THINK THAT IS WHAT WE SHOULD TACKLE BUT "CORRUPTION" AS A WHOLE.


AN AVERAGE NIGERIAN IS CORRUPT.

WE ALL ARE JUST CORRUPT MINDED. I DONT THINK ANYTHIN CAN CHANGE IN THIS GENERATION ANYMORE, WE SHOULD JUST RAISE THE NEXT GENERATION RIGHT WITH D RIGHT MINDSET, but obviously this would b ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE SNCE WE OURSELVES ARE CORRUPT.

MAY GOD HELP US

THE.AMAKA:
all this gist about European languages sef. sigh. . .

how many europeans would say they wanna learn some african language? they'll probably just laugh and say we talk like animals.
ah ah ah, let me not get into this crap.

I'll always embrace my own, no matter what. stop all this french, spanish, italian crap.


**my 2 cents**
yeah i get d embrace ur culture thing but dt does nt mean languages dont sound more pleasing to some ears dn others.

i'm yoruba bt i like hausa!

okay yes culture is dynamic,

yes culture can be imported and exported .
i'm just wondering why we are always on the importing end.

Having imported clothes, fuel, food, etc must we import culture as well.

Have heard never-travelled-nigerians speak with american accent dy see on tv, speak d informal american english-"we was" etc never heard of americans speakin our inf pidgin.



I dont want to agree that its happening everywhere, americans copy britons/europians or vice versa sometimes asians(martial arts) , indians (music) a lot of mixing is going on here and there but it seems no one is gooing after "AFRICANS". Our culture seems to be going down d drain.

Is there anything like 'nigerian' culture?
pls dont find flaws acting like u dont know what we mean!
nigerian culture=ethnics culture i.e. yoruba culture+igbo culture+ hausa etc

kulyie
our culture is retrogressive,if u luk at d western culture it enhances dia lives but here its in our culture 2 marry more dan one wife (even wen u know u dont have d means 2 provide 4 more dan one)-increas in poverty n illiteracy,it is in some warped culture here in naija 2 circumcise a female (so she wont be promiscous)-increase in mental,physical n emotional pain,it is in our culture 2 wear silly aso ebi (even if u nid 2 borrow money 2 wear it)-increase in debt.bleep naija culture!!!!! followers of naija culture r bunch of hypocrites, so called culture is just increasing our poverty n we r oblivious of dat fact.westerners dat dont have a culture of morality r dey not much more developed n civilized dan we are? our culture is bull poo
No culture is perfect, every one has its flaws, dt u feel there's something wrong about a culture doesn't make it all wrong and doesn't make another perfect.

IMO CULTURE SHOULDN'T BE SYNONYMOUS WITH COUNTRY.

CULTURE IS OF A PEOPLE , THEIR WAY OF LIFE,LANG,FOOD,ETC

WE ARE NOT GETTIN BACK AT THE COUNTRY BY DISCARDING OUR CULTURE AND PROMOTIN WESTERN ESPECIALLY WHEN WE CAN NOT REALLY PRACTICE THEIRS.
THEIRS IS GOING TO POLLUTE/INFECT/CORRUPT OUR MINDS.
THE COUNTRY REMAINS OURS WHETHER WHATEVER!

^^^kinda get ur point

Lacrisma:
I get what you mean BUT its a larger issue than you are stating.
so can we trace d prob back to d govt?

Some people don't feel obligated to a country has not helped them or assisted them in any manner.
so they are like gettin back at the country or what.?

More than half of Nigerians live abroad.
well even those dt live here still neglect our culture

my real concern is this:
americans preserve their culture, asians do, indians also etc,
but nigerians dnt ,
------some families dont even encourage their kids to speak their native languages,
------greet in traditional way, etc
------native language is forbidden in some families,
-----many youths prefer d foreign/western cuisine to our own native dishes

Angeleyz:
the only thing i can think of is the mtv generation syndrome
what do u mean by that?


Lacrisma:
as technology continues to be readily available to ALL, cultures will be challenged and deprived. undecided undecided
i dnt thin technology is an excuse!
if all cultures are challenged,why are we not on the exporting side? we are on the importing side becuz we dnt feel our culture is good enough.
CultureDeclining Interest In Nigerian Culture! What Is Responsible? by sofadj(op): 10:30pm On Dec 27, 2009
One cant but wonder what wld be left of our culture in the future(say 200years).


With d way children are are raised nowadays in Nigeria, we pay more respect to western culture,

We find western culture trendier than ours(food, clothin,language etc)

NIgerian culture may cease to exist in the future.

The problem is dt western culture is really not compatible with african thinkin, personality etc

i think inferiority cmplex is pushing us to embrace western culture this much

what do u'l think?

RomanceRe: Im Fallin In Luv Wit My Female Friend by sofadj(m): 9:30pm On Dec 24, 2009
i dont think there's any wrong in a friends becomin lovers, it happens.

i think there's smthn wrong wif guys and girls hangin close when not datin, u can talk casually but sleepin in the same bed, that's over d line.

d fact dt d fellin u have started after u kissed her signifies dt u dont love her.

just d sudden realisation dt u can get more romance/sex is shacking ur brain.(been there)

ADVICE:
it will be very difficult to get her out of ur head, cus lust is as strong as love just dosnt last as much
just go ahead and ask her out, u really dont have much option here.

if ure lucky she refuses then u ld be able to get her out of ur head, if she agrees, well just go along with d relationship and see what happens.
