gidgiddy:
Nigerians always recognise and cherish their right to have sought after independence from Britain. Nigeria even has a day, 1st of October, set aside to celebrate its independence and freedom from Britain


But if Biafrans like Ojukwu and Kanu talk about getting independence from Nigeria, the same Nigerian will start screaming "treason!", "python dance!", "war!"

Hypocrisy is a Nigerian

what is this one saying?

kayjay69:
Zlatan and Ronaldo, cult members, youths of nigeria, so-called leaders of tomorrow, Nigeria is f***ed I swear.

fvcked beyond repair

Reelmii:
all this musicians that are cultist, are they swear that some young people look up them as role models??


what are they teaching the younger generation



this was how that one upcoming artist was killed in LASU, cant remember his name




it is well o

damoche

most people don't remember him tho

Akinola2543:
believe me or not palm all Nigeria celebrities belong to one cult group.

to what end tho?

everything naija is upsidedown

HigherEd:
I have learnt long ago never to be discouraged by a denial. We humans are largely myopic, we cry over delays and denials but God sees the entire picture.

The Google brothers once attempted to sell Google to Yahoo at $1 million. But when they got to present at Yahoo they left disappointed as Yahoo mgt was not interested. Today Google has outpaced yahoo. Some even say Google has kicked Yahoo into oblivion.


When Stanford jnr died, his father wanted to honour him with a memorial building at Harvard university but he was denied. That drove him to establish the Leeland Stanford Junior University AKA Stanford University founded on entrepreneurship education.
(Disclaimer: there's a lot of controversy on this story.)

Today Stanford, though hundreds of years younger is of equal prestige as Harvard. It's alumni community is wealthier than many nations of the earth and the second highest producer of billionaires in the world. Second only to Harvard. It's not an Ivy league but has surpassed most ivy leagues - Yale, Cornell, Princeton etc.


I know people who were tormented after relationship breakups. Today, they cringe at the thought that they could have ended up with those persons.

While I refuse to say Covenant was a lesser door, studying in the UK is definitely an higher door.

People should always learn to accept denials in hope of something better. If you did your best and were denied then something better is coming!

you have spoken well

mrvitalis:
For once me and this man agree on the same thing

Not just the leaders most africans are not smart at all that's why they vote the kind of leaders we have in africa

A smart person cant win election in nigeria

How do u explain to a nigerian u need to pay more for light before u can pay less

How do u explain rice most be expensive for it to be cheap

How do u tell a mallam if they have few kids he would be richer

How do u explain to someone its better to buy a nigerian made goods for 20000 than buy an imported one for 10000

I have given up ...bihari is dumb , jonathan is dumb , smart morgarlu couldn't win ...even dumb sowore got more votes than him ....

Honestly i give up

you have said it all.

An average African is DUMB

D1zion:
How can a decent married woman dress this way. No matter how civilized you are.what example are you showing your children.kai! Oh! Africa my Africa.they have forgotten their culture & taken over western civilization.

African attire, like the real African attire is quite revealing
Exposes a lot of skin
It's a matter of perception

why are MANY of you mad at him tho?

fabyom:
If the Canadians did not develope their country where will you run to. Lalas you are second class citizen!

what Is this one saying

ADMAF:
You have a point sir. However, if a Country like Ghana has our kind of wealth, even with corruption factored in, Ghanaians would be significantly better off because they have less population to exhaust such wealth. This is why the well being of a Country is measured in Per capita income basis or income per household. It's not Wise to continue unsustainable populatiin xpansion just cos of the Chinese xample. Scandinavian States have some of the most stable governments and economies cos of population control.

you have said it all

Biglittlelois:
Crowned kings of old do not move about, they are always in their palace, what is really wrong with ones

times have changed

Oyinlomobambam:
I know most people will find it difficult to understand his point of view

yes
they don't get it

BlacSmit:
I hate when people feel they know something when they know nothing.

He should use this same theory to explain why China isn't poor,,,

Corruption is the Major reason Nigerians are poor.

China population has been shrinking decade upon decade.

When population exceed economic growth

Poverty sure

chloride6:
Foundation was faulty because he wanted to buy beer?
Wetin person no go hear?

no mind am

Hadampson:
Prayers and fasting cannot develop Nigeria boss. Let's be realistic

A country where corruption is seen as normal thing cannot develop even if you fast for 1 million years.

the guy is being sarcastic

that is his style

AngelicBeing:
Prayer and fasting is the key to the development of Nigeria, we need more prayers, fasting, mosques, churches, and Nigeria will be great again in the year 2099

hahahahahaha


I don laugh oooo

id911:
Nigeria image is being battered everyday by our compatriots and it's getting out of hand. This is making things difficult for genuine travellers. Something must be done urgently to curb the rate of crime and 'I must make it fast and show off' attitude of our people.

The rate of crime and evil in our society is caused by the failure of parents to train their children the way our forefathers trained their children. I'm a Christian, baptized and confirmed. But I would outrighty ban or regulate religious activities in the country if I were in charge of the affairs of this country because I personally think the proliferation of religious houses hasn't done a thing to make our society better. I don't care if I'm killed in the process.

I remember having a conversation with a foreign lady online, she asked where I was from and I said Nigeria. She immediately told me Nigerians are too intelligent and smart, that she can't have any dealings with people from that country and that was the end of it. It's pathetic!

it's a shame

to break the thing down


it is breakdown of moral values, and widespread indiscipline


I think our music industry has its own part to play in this mess

toprealman:
Is it me or what.....too many unknown Nollywood actors popping up!!! Baba show us the way.

Sanyeri is unknown?

bloda how old are you?

AngelicBeing:
Hahaha, no dull moment on Nairaland, Lol at all you listed above , let's keep praying and fasting for Nigeria, Nigeria will be great again, we should all go on dry fasting for Buhari and APC led federal criminals, Nigeria will be better, we should pray more, prayers and fasting is the solution to Nigeria problems, we should forget about science, technology etc prayers will develop Nigeria in the year 2099, Ugosample has started organizing 180 days prayer and fasting in Senegal for Nigeria

lmao


Werey ni e se




2099?

who amongst us will be alive then?

kingharzy:


If Glo was a publicly traded company, this guy will be apologising and explaining long explanations to the SEC while crediting Glo's bank accounts.
i'm not against calling out business/govt. outfits over poor service, but respect is demanded.
Don't Quote

apologize my black arse

he is not a "connected person" so that will not happen

lukui:
because your papa get money does not mean that you have sense, morals and values,

check most drug addicts like cocaine heroine or marijuana are usually rich kids, why because their papa is rich! they have everything! all what's left is what to spend money on

check most musicians too are usually rich spoilt kids 1. davido ----adeleke family 2. DJ cuppy ----otedola family 3. DJ spinall etc

most of them are well to do guys, all they spend their money time wealth and health are clubbing , party , and threesomes. just imagine no positive moral or value from them!!!!!!

and what did you expect before may be their father stole or looted the money in the first place! like father like daughter!!!!

what is this one saying?


the poor and wretched in Nigeria are the most spoilt, useless, entitled and ungrateful spoilt rats in this country

I know because I have come across many
Family dysfunction and lack of home training is more prevalent in these wretched homes

PotatoSalad:
Yes.

thanks for the info

PotatoSalad:
This is what happens when you lose weight very fast especially when you're overweight.
They should have consulted a good dietician that will span the weight loss over a period of 6 to 8 years at least; Gradual weight loss.
Now he'll require surgery to remove the excess skin and wont have that "summer" body again

So losing weight gradually will not lead to this kind of situation?

Sparkle777:
Its always better to loose weight thru exercise and monitoring of diet than Gastric Bypass or any other surgery. Now see a small boy carrying excess skin like an old woman. He will still require another surgery to tighten the skin which will not still look good.

If u want to loose weight, pls go thru the honourable door. That said, I need to loose 20kg. I need strength oh Lord

if one more weight "the normal way"

Will the person still be liable to loose skin?

KingLennon:
What baffles me is that in Nigeria the poor steal from the poor.....

this one surprises me really

PeacenLove2:
Abeg, leave Buhari out of this one na. The whole Nigerian system and orientation was headed this lane.

Well, if your grandma enjoys her own company and or can get herself busy, I can see why she wants to remain in the US. And it's better to file for her than having to renew visas every 2 years. Mind you, how long does she spend at a time before coming home? Being a resident, she won't be able to spend so much time outside America. Is she sure she won't miss Naija sha? No place like home o

most of us are based out of the country

When you are with your kids and grand kids, is that not home?

planetx:
Stay in your country and develop it, America is full and the American people does not owe the world's poor a living so that is why Trump will be reelected with a landslide.

Nigeria CANNOT be developed

that's the fact
the current structure and demography is against its development

Tho you are right thst America owes no one nothing

if they refuse to open the door

it's theur RIGHT

it's also ones right to want to flee the HQ of extreme poverty and wickedness
So it's a two way thing

PeacenLove2:
How many elderly people do you know wants to spend so much time in America? They know these old people always can't wait to go back home, the cold weather, the abandonment and boredom they encounter with the busy lives of their American relatives. They know what they're doing in that regard alright.

ah

these days they are staying o


my grand ma has refused to come back
tho she was sent home sha, and get son is filing now for her green card.

She says in igbo that Nigeria is cursed lmao

so when the petition is done sha
she can then go
more and more old folks are staying in the USA from NIGERIA
they come visiting once in a while

That's the extent to which Buhari has damaged the country

megareal:
Why? Because three of my elderly aunts were never denied visas.

my grand mother's get visas all the time.
But as for my cousins
Ela upon Ela
these embassy people wicked gan

Susu888:
Wetin we no go hear??
They hv evry right to protect their countrymen md women! 90% of Nigeria’s export r drug runners, fraudsters nd cultists! Thanks to our fellow compatriots from the East.

Before u come for me pls read again.... these r facts i stated nd the whole nairaland can vouche for me* plus I didn’t insult any tribe... jst stating the obvious

typical of your ilk

blame the SE

Afonja007:
I want American and European embassies to make it mandatory that every one must be interviewed in his or her mother's tongue ,so all this am igbo but I don't speak igbo will stop, if you don't know how to speak your mother's tongue stay in your country ,many my papa tell me say I be igbo full Lagos and is terrible,the only place a Nigerian behaves his or her self is in Europe or north American embassies

What sort of stupid talk is that "my papa tell me I be igbo"

Does any one needs to tell you your ancestry?

Common sense una no get

mamatwiny:
Let us blame GEJ for this.


God please send me money to exit this country b4 it finally crumbles. Australia, Canada, please give me PR. I promise to be a law abiding citizen. My children must not pay for what they know nothing abt.
