If only the Iboes did not put all their eggs in one basket, we won't be here. If they did not derogate and engage in a campaign of hatred (instead of ideas) against Buhari and the North/ SW, we won't be here. They're only reaping the fruits of their hatred and politics of exclusion.

Dont be deceived, NDA is an iboe agitation at its core going by their rejection by the SS indigenous communities & the IPOB request, and I'm hoping they launch a major attack at the end of the ultimatum so that they can justify whatever level of military force that will be deployed to wipe them out.

Please explain what you mean by putting all eggs in one basket?

Study your history carefully. Fulani's are foreigners some not too long ago. They brought religion to 'colonised' the North, then they started fighting jihad war.

Before then, all the kings are Hausa, there was no sultan of Sokoto or Emir of Kano, Gwandu or Daura, and the Fulani's extend their conquering to Yoruba land in Ilorin. Remember that Sokoto is now a caliphate.

Nigerian for all her independence has been run either by a Fulani directly or indirectly. Out of 10 of our President, 4 are Fulani, and Fulani's are only 7% of Nigeria's population.

Nothing happens by error, these advancements by way of herdsmen is strategic spying and testing the water. They want to colonised us and turn the country into an Islamic state.

Their founding fathers in Nigeria, Uthman dan fodio Said that they will dip the Quran into the Atlantic Ocean one day as they look to capture the south.

Wise up, Turkey was once a Christian country now a full fledged Islamic country.

I have read my history already, lol... I just wanted to hear from you.
But one thing you have to know is that there is no way the fulani people will turn the whole Nigeria to a Muslim state, bro, , that is not possible, and second, if you really know fulani history, you will agree with me that their level of co-operation and unity is one trait they have, that we in the south do not have, and that is why they technically run this country.



Especially we Igbo people. We need to be like that proverbial broom that is tied together, and is difficult to break. Once we can get that, then we can be more relevant politically.

Igbo people used to run this country, too bad events blew it, and since then, it has not been the same.

These are my thoughts anyways.

nkemjacob2:
I am an igbo man. It seem religious/tribal setiment is becoming higher in dis administration. This gvt have to do sometin about it if nigeria wants to grow. However the current state of the economy is not d fault of buhari neither GEJ if u want to blame d economy failure start 4rm d military regime. Just dat nigerians will have to swallow bitter pills according to FASHOLA to fix tins rite. Ur hate speeches will not contribute %1 to d economy woes.

Nwa-nne m....
Nice one

Just look at what Igbo people are saying online about their country. smh When will some of my people have sense in Nigeria?

Hausa people are under the control of fulani. Fulani guys are politically minded fellows their grand plan is to take over Nigeria. God is really merciful, just imagine if fulani were to be the ones having oil in their backyard, I believe the whole Nigeria will be begging them for a plate of indomie

You think so? Okay o.

waternogetemeny:
Statemanship whilst the rape and murder continue.


Fulani are hell bent on taking over the south like they did the Hausa in the North.


It wont work for them.

So fulanis took over Hausa people?
They have taken over Hausa people?
Please explain further.

Its 150% safe trust me. Not sure about the current price though. Should not be more than 30,000CFA. Majority of Nigerians on that route are usually heading for Dakar.
When you find our way to Cotonou, tell any bike man you are heading to Bamako and they will take you to the park. Its also fun. Its also an opportunity to see Burkina Faso because the its a gateway country to Mali. Sometimes, I stop at Ouagadougou or Bobo Doulasso to catch some fun before proceeding to Bamako.

quote author=Ugosample post=45965411]


Is it also safe?

Did you use your passport in that route, and do you advice anyone to?
Besides, how long did you spend on that route

Abidjan-Bamako be two days journey.

writemeshyahoo:
There are several direct buses from Cotonou to Bamako. That has been my favourite route.

Are you serious?
How much do you pay?

isn't this lovely

cuhkiees:
Please I want to ask, which of the passports is used in travelling out Nigeria? Is it the standard passport or the ECOWAS one. Thanks

There is only one.
The ECOWAS one

4nobody4every1:
We are already visa free to Ivory coast, Ghana, Senegal according to the Ecowas treaty which l think is 90 days on arrival, Kenya is l think you pay 50 dollars on arrival

Exactly

Keneking:
Really wish it can be the following States:

- South Africa
- Kenya
- Algeria
- Senegal
- Ivory Coast
- Ghana
- Angola
- Ethiopia

But Nigeria has visa free travel/visa on arrival arrangements with Ivory Coast, Ghana, Senegal and Kenya.
I have been to some of those countries, and I did not need a visa.

KelvinLamar:
5 Cedis is 1000CFA. I came into Accra about two weeks ago or so from Abidjan with CFA. In fact, when you wan drop for immigration guys dey will ask you to either pay 1000CFA or 5 Cedis.

Maybe the Naira analysis was wrong sha. I withdrew via ATM. Didn't even check the charges. I am using online conversion rate.

You mean the university of Cocody? When there is no WiFi at home, I take Gbaka to the university and enjoy unlimited free internet.. LOL. I didn't visit the zoo. I don't like going to see caged animals sha.

I went to Grand Bassam, Dabou, Yammousokro and then visited the park and malls around Plateau and Deux Plateau.

For Lome, I spend 4 days there. Apart from the beach, nothing so special for me. Maybe I didn't explore enough.. The horizon of the Ocean is great. Especially at night..

If you have name of places, drop them biko.

Next year, I will be off to Central and East Africa with my girlfriend.

Nice one bro.
Me I will soon start my tour this year, but I gotta hustle first o

MAKE I NO GO WASH PLATE FOR PERSIN COUNTRY

KelvinLamar:
I agree on that..Cabs are expensive. But 20 Cedis is 1000 naira(Official rate). 3500 CFA is roughly above 1000 Naira(official rate).

When I was in Abidjan, I did everything to stay away from the red Taxis.Lmao.. I used Gbaka mostly and then the Suburb Taxis that charge around 100CFA or 200CFA.

The highest you will pay for Gbaka or the suburb Taxi is 400CFA. Highest..

I fit use that 3500 CFA buy Acheke with confirm Chicken and meat still collect change. Lmao.

Say No to Red Taxis.

That your mathematical analysis no correct o!!!!
The analysis should have been between CFA and Cedi. Don't bring naira into it o.
The last time I checked. 6.5 Cedi equals 1000CFA.
Do the maths using that instead.
I used Gbaka too. Apprenti!!!!!!! lol

I'm happy you enjoyed the city, as it is a city I will visit again and again.

Funny enough I don't like attieke I just eat the fish and leave the rest.

Did you visit the university?
What ofthe zoo?
Enjoy Accra too o, and you can finish in Lome before coming home. That is another magical city.

KelvinLamar:
Communication is also way cheaper here. They are robbing us in Nigeria.
You can get 200MB of legitimate airtel data for 2Cedis. That is less than 100 Naira.

I bought Vodafone and subscribed for the " X" package. I paid just 11Cedis and I got 1.7GB with free calls to Vodafone X users and free SMS to all Vodafone users.

Can any network beat that in Nigeria?

I know data and calls can be very cheap. MTN gave me 180 MB for 2 cedi. I feel cheated right now; D

But cabs are costly here.
20GHC upwards
paid 30GHC to the airport From east legon. can you compare that with cab price in Abidjan? the highest I paid for cab is 3500 CFA and it is because the distance was far (Basaam)


Light bill is costly too.

And other stuffs tho

KelvinLamar:
Abidjan is splendid city, great city. It is by far the best African city I've been to yet. I lived in Abidjan for one month and roughly one week with a family host, so it helped cut my spending. Abidjan have the very basic of a modern society: Electricity and clean water. Abidjan is a lot much more organized than, say, Lagos. And it has a very large expatriate population with an above average night/fun life. Modern bars with Acheke joints flanking them are scattered all over the city. The road network is great.

I can go on and on and on!!!! So many good stuffs. I didn't spend on food and internet(I got that for free at my host family) so I can't give you an idea on cost of living. But if there is a Francophone city worth visiting, it is Abidjan.

I am currently in Accra. And it is as shitty as Lagos. Just less expensive.

I agree 100%
But Oga, Accra is expensive o!!!!
There is nothing really special though about Accra, but there is light.
But if you can, go to cape coast and have fun.

Continue roaming about.....
It's good for you

Philpham:
I know she did a good job but these white people should stop portraying Africa as a place that needs constant rescue by the whiteman. There are lots of people suffering in Denmark too such as abused children, drug addicts and poverty stricken children. These white people should stop acting as our saviours. They should remove the log in their eyes before they start looking for specks in other people's eyes.

Has the black man saved himself?

Don't talk that way

Noblepeace:
Out of experience, if u marry ur age mate in no distance time u can't take decisions in d house... she must force her own decisions on you. if u doubt it try it time will teach u

It depends on the culture of the woman involved This is not universal tho

dinachi:
Hey are you among those gullible boys hopelessly in love with Genevieve? Sorry to bust your bubble but she is more interested in women than she will ever be in you! So stop sulking.

What is this one saying?
Do I look like a groupie?

dinachi:
Everyone missed it. Chinny is Genevieve's Lesbian partner. I am very sure of it.

And what is this one saying?

Raziii:
I used to think corruption is our major problem in Nigeria but not anymore... we are too divided to succeed. We are too divided to be like Singapore. We are too divided to reach our true potential. I think the president if he want to succeed should spend more time quelling the hatred that exist between the various regions in the country.

Right

Wealthgang:
U made sense. But FG is not forcefully taking lands from anybody or planning to do so. The N940m is for d ministry of agric for land purchase. Pple are just brewing storms in a teacup

My question is why is land bought in behalf of the herdsmen? Can't they use the money to buy it for themselves?

So true!
Anytime im out of the country, I miss my gala....


But I guess it's because we grew up eating it, and our taste buds are accustomed to it, that's why, not necessarily because ours is better.

Just my thought tho

Stupedinluv:

You dey mind them?

obaroiskool:
People thinks public romance and touches is a way of telling the public they are best lovers, but I tell you now, you are only telling the public that you are inresponsible, who cares if you are the best lovers or not. Don't make people see you as a kid because you want to show affection. I will tell, there are many ways love can be expressed without touching each other. Jacob served another 7 years just to marry Racheal. That is "labour of love" . No touches or public romance. But Racheal felt loved

Oga there is nothing wrong with PDA.
The only problem is the cultural inclinations prevalent here.

criuze:
After taking their oil and destroying their ecosystem someone come here ranting 'They are lazy '. they are so blessed that they shouldnt suffer. Have you been to UAE and Qatar and see what laziness is. Now my good op is advising them to start pushing barrow and doing concrete works to prove how hardworking they are, while almost there oil blocks owned by hausa babarians and yoruba smeagols . Pls my southern brothers need better works not the one left for abokis'. Pls op or whoever it is look for better advice next time

What is this one saying?

ibedun:
Yet igbo towns and villages are desolate? What and what did Igbos develop in Lagos? Keep feeding your kids with lies, Igbos are mere refugees in Lagos.

Have you travelled to the east before?
