The Yeebos have finally damaged the image of Nigeria outside the country. with their drug and 419.





Yes i said that. And don't call me tribalistic. I just stated the fact.

pansophist:
Giving nigeria visa free status will flood their country with millions of unproductive Nigerians. Nobody wants that. Anyone who deserves a Visa will most likely get it if he applied. After all, Nigeria didn't give SA free visa entry, so?

legitnow:
hahahahahahaha!


Nigeria need to bd disintegrated.


Igbos deserve a better country than Nigeria.



To be a Nigerians is to have no dignity.

oz4real83:
As long as our leaders and their families have easy access to other countries either by virtue of dual citizenship or political power,they will never consider free-visa policies with other countries. They never want others to enjoy what they and their families enjoy. Funny enough,most Nigerians see it as normal. It is Never Normal. If they consider Nigeria good enough for business due to her population strength,then they should also consider her people good enough to have easy movement.

SoNature:
No!
Marriage is not by force.
Even in the Bible, the conditions for divorce were defined; this is something that Nigeria needs.
There must be terms and conditions for pulling out of this contraption called Nigeria.
Yes, the Confab should have been allowed to define that.

SoNature:
He said all the issues were discussed as he gave them the freedom to discuss all

The statement above is false!
Jonathan made it clear that secession was off the table!

Again, not implementing the recommendation of the conference was hypocrisy at its best!
Why didn't Jonathan implement it the minute the white paper was released?
He should never have waited to win the 2015 elections before implementing the recommendation.
Nigeria lacks good leaders.
No, Jonathan was never a good leader!

Abeos:
There's something called cultural difference, don't always use the white/abroad as the standard/yardstick for everything

SheikhMuniru:
This One Don Eat EFO (Vegetable) No Doubt About That

Focusmind:
Next thing now is that the idiotic youths will not question how the massive revenue have been used but to start insulting themselves over, ' our own revenue big pass your own". This is what the thread will turn into. It is not about what your region have generated or received but the quality of life of people living there.

We should focus more on economic development rather than economic growth. Economic development is about human capacity development and standard of living why economic growth is about growth in numbers - GDP and so on.

plaetton:
That IGR for Lagos is consistently the highest in Nigeria is neither news nor surprising.
However, the reason for comparing it to the entire southeast in the article is quite strange, and I must say, a bit funny.

Did I detect a psychological complex of some sort ?

DameB:
I just hope Huawei is able to recover from the financial loss and reputation damage incurred during this period.....

Scorned woman dey learn for where Trump dey . Lol.

Hell hath no fury like Trump scorned.

Rossikk:
BRAINLESS MUMU. So all these MILLIONS OF houses, duplexes, mansions, cars, SUVs, buses, lorries, and various businesses we see on our streets, cities, and roads throughout the entire country, only belong to 7% of the population?? BRAINLESS HE-GOAT, you and the other PEABRAINS here typing ''95%, 90%''..... AWON OLODO. Wasted Education. Functional Illiterates.

Many of you are DISGUSTING in the way you misrepresent and exaggerate the situation in this country.

I recall when Shoprite was contemplating establishing malls in Nigeria a few years back. Majority of you assholes came online discouraging them, and saying that everyone was too poor, and that ''only the tiny few rich'' could afford to visit shopping malls.

Many said it was a terrible decision by Shoprite to come to Nigeria, one they would come to regret, since, according to them, ''99% of Nigerians live on less than a dollar a day''.

Guess what? Shoprite IGNORED these people. ESTABLISHED the malls, and is ESTABLISHING MORE AS WE SPEAK, due to MASSIVE DEMAND AND PATRONAGE from the same ''poor starving Nigerians'' living on ''less than a dollar a day''.

And you wonder why people say Nigerians are dumb and stupid. Keep running down your country before the world. Cursed people.

THE MOST SUCCESSFUL ETHNIC GROUP IN THE U.S. MAY SURPRISE YOU


Because you don’t know what it means to hustle … until you meet a Nigerian-American.
By Molly Fosco
THE DAILY DOSEJUN 07 2018

At an Onyejekwe family get-together, you can’t throw a stone without hitting someone with a master’s degree. Doctors, lawyers, engineers, professors — every family member is highly educated and professionally successful, and many have a lucrative side gig to boot. Parents and grandparents share stories of whose kid just won an academic honor, achieved an athletic title or performed in the school play. Aunts, uncles and cousins celebrate one another’s job promotions or the new nonprofit one of them just started. To the Ohio-based Onyejekwes, this level of achievement is normal. They’re Nigerian-American — it’s just what they do.

Today, 29 percent of Nigerian-Americans over the age of 25 hold a graduate degree, compared to 11 percent of the overall U.S. population, according to the Migrations Policy Institute. Among Nigerian-American professionals, 45 percent work in education services, the 2016 American Community Survey found, and many are professors at top universities. Nigerians are entering the medical field in the U.S. at an increased rate, leaving their home country to work in American hospitals, where they can earn more and work in better facilities. A growing number of Nigerian-Americans are becoming entrepreneurs and CEOs, building tech companies in the U.S. to help people back home.

It hasn’t been easy — the racist stereotypes are far from gone. [b]Last year, President Donald Trump reportedly said in an Oval Office discussion that Nigerians would never go back to “their huts” once they saw America. [/b]But overt racism hasn’t stopped Nigerian-Americans from creating jobs, treating patients, teaching students and contributing to local communities in their new home, all while confidently emerging as one of the country’s most succesful immigrant communities, with a median household income of $62,351, compared to $57,617 nationally, as of 2015.

Herdsmen killings started under Christian OBJ and was out of control under Christian GEJ and both of them left office without lifting a finger to handle the situation while the so-called Christians like you looked the other way unconcerned.

Hypocrisy and religion won't solve the problem or make your life any beter.

alphaNomega:
I won't blame them because black people no dey try at all. Look at Nigeria, the so-called largest black nation with a "lifeless" president. A shthole by all standards.




see na... always find a way to bring in irrelevant issues to the matter at hand. Wetin concern d tin Trump talk with religion?

Rossikk:
Mumu. The right wing fascists you support are NEO NAZIS, the KKK and other white-supremacist, anti-immigrant hate groups for whom Trump the racist, is their hero. If they had their way with a black person like you, you would be lynched or hanged in a second. Don't go and read history before taking sides on what you know nothing about.

SoNature:
Give Obama some credit...he inherited an economy in recession from Bush. Apart from bad economy, he also inherited wars...Afghanistan and Iraq.

He didn't go complaining like Buhari, but he rolled his sleeves and got to work.

Before leaving office, he reduced unemployment rate to less than 4%. Obama did a good job.

Trump is just consolidating what Obama built.

nelsonoba:
Oga, you are there hating and the man you are hating for his leadership style is producing the best economic results in American history. If you were the one in his shoes and that stupid UK ambassador called you INEPT, DELUDED AND INCOMPETENT despite producing the lowest African-American unemployment rate in recorded history(Something even Obama, a black president couldnt do in 8years) and lowest general unemployment rate since 1969, Would you not have hit back at that ambassador yourself? Stay here and be forming HYPOCRITE!

Bimpe29:
Donald Trump is not only blunt, but saucy.

GogobiriLalas:
Not only would he get a second chance, it is likely that a Republican will be President after him.

Freehuman:
Majority of the public really think the worth of these companies as put forward by media houses like Forbes and Brandt are the amount they have in the bank, if they had such money in the bank The USA would borrow from them instead of China.

The worth of these companies are a culmination of their assets, profit from sales, investments and most importantly stock. Aliexpress may make more sales than Amazon and have more money in their account than Amazon but Amazon definitely owns the stock market than them.

American companies have always topped those lists because of their capitalist nature and most importantly because of the ordinary citizens familiarity with words like New York Stock Exchange and Wall Street.

Zuckerberg for instance was reported to have lost 30 Billion dollars last year by Forbes. Was money in his account stolen? Obviously No. His worth is his shares or stocks and how much they are selling at that time. For instance if Apple has 100 million units of ordinary shares selling at 1000 dollars each, Apple will therefore be estimated to be at worth at least 1 trillion dollars, if the price of those shares fall to 10 dollars per unit their worth drastically reduces to 1 billion dollars.
This way Apple Can be worth 1 trillion dollars this week and drop to 100 Billion dollars by next week and therefore lose 900 billion dollars at the stock market.

Americans have an enlightened population of those who invest in the stock market. Facebook's only source of income is advertising which means media houses like CNN and Sky Sports would worth same as facebook or more if their value was reliant on profit from sales. However, the American Stock exchange market favours American companies. In the US, charity organisations and Schools purchase shares of companies ,even companies purchase shares from other companies. This knowledge of stock market investment is what Africa and Asia lacks, and Europeans are not really interested in.

If we had a good stock market in Nigeria, Nairaland would definitely be a billion dollar company. Easiest way to make money even without a single sale is the stock market that's why MTN created awareness when they wanted to make their brand valuable after their judicial loss. Twitter is a fortune 500 company and sold their first adverts space only 3 years ago. Prior to that, they relied solely on investments and the stock Market which would mean the likes of Dangote group and even Nairaland would beat them by far.

iCauseTrouble:
But where is Dangote brand?

DaBogu:
This world is wild sha, married women would be flaunting their rings like marriage is their biggest achievement while their husbands are busy telling 20 year old girls “I wish I knew you before my wife”

NotComplaining:
Rape is part of our global society and will always be. But our aim is to reduce it and not allow our families become victim of it through a moral dress code and enforced rules on interaction between the sexes.

Rape even occurs in Saudi, but its on a minutr negligible scale that it is hard to say our Islamic preventative measures are not working.

So where would you rather your vulnerable sisters be, in a society with little, or one with a rampant culture or rape?
