Yes, go on, we need real foreign investments that will create jobs for the teaming jobless youths roaming the streets in search of ends meal.

Has love not died before the world was created? Wealth of course!

Must religion be brought into everything in Nigeria?

Tell the whole truth and she'll hate you the more.

Don't reject her suggestions, even if they'll escalate the problems.

They tried, but............

Obama's citizenship made way for him [/quote]Was he not borne in the US? Besides, Nigeria doesn't Need you to proud.

FFK is irrelevant and so should be ignored

Until the head of Shekau is brought down the continues.

A Lion is killed and eaten up by an Antelope, a regrettable truth.

At the point of no return, what can someone do?

At the point of no return, what can someone do?

One more chance for Keshi and if he doesn't improve the fire.

A good report from JTF, keep it up. Please JTF, get me the head of shekau as quick as possible.

That's the power of Hopelessness, it turns one into nothing. For their courageous act, bravo.

Tony Spike: Let me share some of my personal experiences with Africans and a Chinese so far:

1. A Swazi lady once asked me why I was studied (and was studying) when all I needed to do as a Nigerian was to forge certificates and use it for employment. Well, She said Nigerians are expert at forging any documents and University degrees is no exception.

2. A Kenyan once saw me certifying my credentials (transcripts, degree certificate) and the next thing He said was, "Bro, are you sure that your degree certificate isn't forged?". He has been fed with many stories of the Nigerian stereotype. Funny enough, the two years we spent together changed his opinions on a lot of things about Nigerians.

3. A South African policeman once asked me if there were University degrees in corruption in Nigeria.

4. A Chinese Professor we shared an elevator together asked of my nationality. The moment I mentioned 'Nigeria', He immediately muttered inaudibly, "oh, that country is so corrupt!"

There are so many examples I can give. Nigeria has an unpalatable and damaged global profile. Infact, the name Nigeria sends shivers down the spine of many internationals. This is not a joke, I have experienced it so many times and I'm sure many other Nigerians in diaspora will give a list longer than what I've experienced. The reason we have a forum like Nairaland is to discuss how we can redeem our image. I don't think this forum should be used to lamblast other African nationals. Let us sort out our own inbred issues before we start accusing other nationals of being lazy, hateful and bigoted. Thanks, y'all.

Nigeria's image is badly damaged, her internal security challengs is a mess and yet attracts the highest direct investment in Africa. No Nigeria No Africa

otumfour: Again, I say, Nigerians shud never compare thread problems wit any other country, cuz urs is always 200% worst, this ur blind patriotism ideology needs to stop.....I tell u, if u had J̶̲̥̅̊u̶̲̥̅̊ƨ̣̣̣̇̇̇̇τ̣̣̥ abt 500 Nigerians like shymex......M̶̲̥̅γ̲̣̣̥ lord, Nigeria wud have turned around now.......


Sad but true, there's no light at the end of the tunnel now.....Ghana can easily turn its problems around cuz
1. the population ain't tht much,
2. Democracy is living here,
3. We the people have a say

Can u say same to ur 1 party state Nigeria ?

You've a say on what ground?

Prices of petroleum products are annually increased regardless of their effects on helpless Guardians, for instance, Jan 2012, what Did you say to reverse the increases?
Last three weeks, your MPs increased their salaries by 50% in present of adject poverty of her citizens. What did you do to stop that selfish move?

One police officer can hold 1000 Guardians to ransom due to their Cowardice.

Rastamann: You are right! That was how Kidnapping started in Nigeria - When the Niger Delta guys were kidnapping the Oyibos in the oil companies government and other stakeholder did not do anything and after all the oyibos were kidnapped, they started kidnapping their brothers and sisters and presently anything "kidnappable" is being kidnapped.

You are the next to be kidnapped.

SA government should as a matter of urgency call her nationals to order before it becomes an eye for an eye situation. Our leniency has hit its limit. Be warned

Ironi: Truth be told, Nigerians are a problem anywhere they go.
They don't play by the rules, not law abiding and are lawless.
They in no time become like pests you would wish to get rid of.

Do you play by the rules or law abiding? Do you exhibite the best of behaviors, certified by who? If there is nothing left in your fickle mind, then, shut up.
Note, Nigeria will continue to dictate for Africa at large.

Nigerian nationals in SA, don't be jittery over the outward expression of hatred and envy by SA nationals towards You, for the war is being won and in no distance time, the songs of victory shall be sung. In Ghana, it's the same as well as other African nationals. They are angry at the pace of Nigeria's increasing influence and dominance in Africa today. Position of authority has been placed upon Nigeria by God, and not even hatred from any quarters can Change it. God bless Nigeria.

Scores pls someone!

God have mercy

Amaechi, stop the fight or else!

That's a good adventure, go on
