in America a SINGLE fingerprint nailed the suspect while in Nigeria SEVERAL video evidences haven't been able to nail a certain man named Ganduje

Since all Americans are immigrants (everybody came from another country), they are easier to control by the government. Everyone is registered, has a social security number and a house address on the Government database.
We Nigerias are indegens. We came out of the soil. Democracy is an alien culture. Asking an alien to register us all to home addresses is a futile exercise. We identify as family and tribes. But are not tied down to specific home address.
This is the same situation for the Native Americans. They stay "off the grid" created by the alien immigrants. They are the Real Americans. But which of them do you know? They're just offline.
If you take their finger print, you won't ever find them a second time.

fabienjoe:
Who are these pitiable souls using Nigeria's abysmal standards to view events in a functional first world? If you don't know any better, you can only do one thing...LEARN!

Always remember that the people you see in America are all immigrants from Europe. None of them is a native indege. The real native Americans have been killed off or relegated to the background.
When immigrants travel to a new land, they repent of their past mistakes in their home land and make sure things work in the new land.
We Nigerians are all native indegenes. In fact all Africans. There is no impetus in us to make things work, afterall, we can comfortably relax in our villages right here.

In Nigeria, the post office would have exploded. As in...

Scientifically, this wood can't float, it will collapse by its own weight in the water. How this piece could contain two blue whales, and thousands of other animals outside their natural habitat is a joke

If this wood cannot float, how come Iron is floating in the ocean?

OkaNaUbe:
The word, "duh" doesn't exist in English Language.

"Sorry" is misused by a lot of youth, even corps members and graduates alike.

Imagine, one day, I was standing in the
an ATM queue waiting for my turn to make withdrawal and one Corps member asked me, "sorry who is the last person?", I retorted, " Why are you sorry? You haven't wronged me" and "I am not the last person".

I went on to tell her that she should have said, " Excuse me, who is the last person in the queue?"

The "Sorry" that they used originates from the British culture of being excessively polite. It is short for, "Sorry to bother or distract you from your thinking or contemplation" can you tell me etc.... British people are always quiet, calculating and think and solving one problem in their mind. So tell them sorry for breaking their thinking process before asking your question.

A person whom you think is so smart and wise, you say "Sorry" could i etc...
A person whom you think has empty dunce head no thinking going on inside the brain, you say, "Excuse me,, blah,blah". Since he kukuma just blocking the oxygen that you are breathing.

tuzle:
I will like to know the top 5, and see Nigeria is there.
Not surprised at all, just found out Nigeria doesn't even have one

With all our corruption, somebody will use fake material for the suspension cable of the bridge. The thing will now cut and bridge will fall and kill people. Abeg leave it like that. Let us not have.

Olalan:
They don't repeat in private school for the fear of the parent taking their kids to other schools

...for the fear You will tell a child a lie, decieve the child just to collect money.... ...for the fear of telling the truth.
Will anybody stand on judgment day at all? Abi fear will not even allow anybody to enter heaven?

ilevic:
Thanks To The Government But When Wil Govtl Rescue Our Sisters Who Walk Have Naked On The Street

Unfortunately, never. Since the same government officials patronise such ladies

Alexrayz:
Rubbish human so dey should know about every human in the state animal are u not still in d zoo people like u go see ur house dey burn u go add fuel instead of finding way out I will not be surprise that u there begging for federal appointment why go to sch here u nor know road to through Morocco or Libya bigot

What work does the government have except to provide for the people? If you don't know who the people are , whom are you providing for?
It is 100% government business to know each and everyone of us. Are we not registered citizens of Nigeria?

Throwback:
I wouldn't mind sailing a ship that wasn't a drillship.

Maybe I can save up and be on the maiden voyage.

This kind of ship is a cruise ship. It is like a hotel ontop of water. Black people hardly ever sail in such ships. Black people do not like ships or sailing, nor do we build ships or like going near water.

jerryunit48:
Wow good.
Some Catholics wey no dey take pills won’t like this

If you need to limit children, get yourself involved in positive activites, don't have sex with anybody. Not even secretly with yourself. This is called abstinence.
This is the God given approach.
2nd method is Natural family planning. Monitoring your wife's fertility cycle and having sex on the days she is not fertile.
If you cannot do these then you might be a sex addict and do not believe that God can do anything to control you. How then will you get to heaven if you cannot control your own private part?

GRACEGLORY:
You guys don't ever see anything good in Nigeria.
You'd only see what you choose to.

When a Chinese buy shoe, slippers or car, he checks the label and it is written, "Made in China". He is happy with his country and himself.
A Nigerian asks for "Made in Germany or Belgium" before going to the market. He is never happy with himself or his country.

SilentListener:
If na Nigerian now one person go just thief the money run go u.s go stay, god help us all.

Chinese people have national pride. They are proud of "Made in China".
Nigerians hate seeing "Made in Nigeria" on anything.

soberdrunk:
Wowser!!!! "65 million POUNDS"!!! If i have that type of money i will still be living in my middle class estate so i can torment people, anyone that doesn't greet me with respect i will buy the property next to their house and open poultry....

Your own house will be smelling of fowl mess. Death by 1000 small-small messes from their small nyash
Don't put poultry near residential zone.

PUSSYBBQGRILLS:
They should use what they have to get what they want.

Reduce the shuttling.

Social media is a place where you can write anything you like.good or bad. However, whatever style you choose eventually affects you in your real life.

GeorgeTheCoder:
The lady is stupid.

First she writes the name of her friend in the attendance register showing her immaturity, next she lets a man who assaulted and demeaned her go free.

How can we move forward as a nation when we are too cowardly to pursue our rights and seek justice ? Forgiveness comes after judgement not when the sin is unatoned.

I repeat, the girl is a fool. The commissioner of education ( who has no business in this case, except to implement the decision of a competent court) had just implied that her dignity it's worth only 50,000 naira and the principal has gotten away with battery.

Eh, when you go about falsifying evidence by telling a lie on an attendance sheet, your dignity will be reduced. What do you expect?

She can continue lying and say the money is N50million

kunleweb:
You are a f0l, what wrong did the corper do?

Did you not read that the corper wrote down the name of her absent friend on the register? That is giving false evidence.
If the friend was involved in Armed robbery or prostitution outside, is that how the legal system will be decieved by attendance sheet that No, she was in school?

klashe:
I'm so disappointed with the comments of some people... The principal made his mistake by over reacting. The corper girl should have been dealt with severely... Why should we blame our leaders of corruption when we ourselves are corrupt?

When I was in Sec school, the corper teachers we had did not look like the kind of people principals can beat.
When I later became a corper, all of us were of the order of 24-25 yr olds. We were physically intimidating.
Maybe some corpers these days are 18,19years. Small and childish. Hence the flogging.

bafex:
how will they flog someone as big of that

Big? But probably behaving like a small child.

yeyerolling:
Both were wrong and shud be punished. Sack the man expel d corper

The corper must have been behaving like a small child. Or probably was a small child. This gave the principal the power to fall for the flogging temptation

wicojosu:
this is so gory. why are nigerians killing themselves in name of material gains

The rulers and leaders and preachers attach so much attantion to material gains with their pompous lifestlyes which we see here on social media.
The people believe that indeed material wealth is the ideal. They stuggle to gain the whole world and lose their soul in the process. People have forgotten Jesus.

lexy2014:
Are d traditional rulers in Nigeria working against d president of d federal republic of Nigeria? Are they galvanizing their "subjects" against d Nigerian state?

A simple yes or no will suffice supported by ur reasons. All u have been saying have no relevance 2d question I asked

The yes or no you are requestion is so difficult that even the Nigerian government is unable to settle with a constitution that favours even we the people. So stop asking as though ruling nigeria is a piece of cake.

This is why Buhari himself does not give a damn when cattle rearers murder 100s in villages. And flies himself overseas for 4months break.

Either we return to military rule or some form of Autocratic rule as you can see the democracy is not working, has bred massive corruption, and many have fled the nation.

Continue looking for Yes or No answer.

Should God kill Devil? Yes or No?

lexy2014:
U are going round in circles&u still havent answered d questions I asked:

Are d traditional rulers in Nigeria working against d president of d federal republic of Nigeria? Are they galvanizing their "subjects" against d Nigerian state?

Whether or not the traditional rulers are physically pushing the people or not, their reaction to issues matters. If a traditional ruler does not react to a minister embezzeling government funds, surely he is indirectly promoting the rest of the people in the kingdom to follow the same.

They are called Traditional Rulers not Traditional Followers. Their ruling position has a moral significance to the people. Whether they speak or not is significant to the people. What is the point of a tribe a village if there is no ruler?

If a traditional ruler publicly declares, "Yoruba People do not steal", a lot of heads will turn.

lexy2014:
Is there any traditional ruler in d country who is a senator of d federal republic of Nigeria?

No there is none.
They are all excluded.
So where do they fall? Inside their kingdoms.
Whom do the people obey?

You cannot exclude tradional rulers from the governance of the nation and expect their loyalty to the nation.
-
In England, Queen Elizabeth is their one and only traditional ruler with royal subjects under her. Their national anthem is "God save our Gracious Queen. Long live our gracious Queen...etc". Alll the denomination of all the currency notes and coins bears her face alone.
The land of UK is her own personal property. Even their Anglican church is under her rule (This is what made Catholics separate from Anglicans).
-
Then the prime minister and co are performing democaracy under with her permission. They report to her palace and kneel down to her before proceeding with their tenure.
UK cannot operate without the monarcy. Which money will they use? What will be their national anthem? Whose model character and behaviour will they emulate?
-
Nigeria has disregarded traditional rulers from gorvernance of the nation. So they take it out sabotaging government work.
People will easily identify as I am igbo, I am yoruba, before they even remember, I am a Nigerian.
Two Nigerians meeting overseas does not mean they will get along. You can even see it all over this website.

lexy2014:
In all this grammar, u haven't been able to point out how traditional rulers are culpable in working against d president. Are they galvanizing their "subjects" against d Nigerian state?

Take a situation where the traditional rulers are the senators.

lexy2014:
Are d traditional rulers working against d president? Are they galvanizing their "subjects" against d Nigerian state?

Whenever the federal government has to build a road or pipeline, all construction is delayed by the chiefs and elders who want settlement.

Government workers (civil servants) steal government money (bogus contracts etc), and use the money to build some mansion in their villages which is applauded by the traditional rulers, which the villagers then support.

If you have a federal CofO (Certificate of Occupancy) some document to state that a piece of land is yours as authorised by the federal government of Nigeria, you can't still walk over there and build your property. You will be met by representatives of the traditional rulers of that land - in Lagos, they are called omonile. Similar group in every other state. You must pay them money again before building
They also collect money from your transport vehicle... All in the name that THEY are the owners of the land NOT the Federal Government.
----
In developed countries that have democracy, they don't have any chief or traditional rulers in their villages. People just move round the country and settle in any part they like. They don't owe anybody any money. They pay tax to the government, rent to the landlord or mortgage to the bank. No village chief comes to disturb them for anything. Government builds roads and bridges without settlement to anybody.

fastjett:
Nigeria can never be repaired again it has spoiled beyond repair fake news, lies from everybody even including the leaders and the masses, excessive hatred and divisions. How can a country progress and prosper with all these kind of people. God is ashamed of the kind of people Nigerians are no honour and shame at all anywhere belly face. Its all about APC and PDP now as if these name can save them instead they will put them into more problems, poverty and hunger. I search all over Nigeria to see if there is any one righteous person but behold all i see are unrighteous people fill will hopelessness and bleak future. Nigerians change thy ways and turn to God, embrace love, truth and righteousness so that you can prosper.

Take Nigeria as a Kingdom. The head of the Kingdom is the president. He is in charge. Under him, he has governors, and ministers, Army and Police. They all work together under him.
Then the citizens of the kingdom, you and I.
-
Now consider this.
Traditional rulers and chiefs.
They are the heads and rulers of tribes and kingdoms. All the people of Nigeria belong to one tribe or another. The traditional rulers are not appointed by the President. They are a separate kingdom unto themselves.
-
How many rulers are the people serving? A kingdom divided against itself will fall. One cannot serve 2 masters. You either love the one and hate the other.

Can you see the reason why we have problems in Nigeria?

There was this tree that was looking for my trouble eh....

GrammarNazi1:
...Nigerians don't...

I feel that current students are actually being taught this bad English in schools. It is so rampant all over this website.

jantofubu:
South Africans are cowards... Only a lazy coward would feel insecure when he sees a neighbor being more successful than he is

Feel for them. They are oppressed. White people are there by force by fire and they cannot chase the white people away. Like they never gained independence unlike the rest of us that gained independence and pursued all the white people away.

waleadex:
Quite similar to the picture of Adam and Eve in the garden according to the scriptures.

There was no social media and there was no sin then. It's like telling a new born baby that his nyash is open. The baby cannot understand what you are talking about.

mysteryman2014:
It is in there gene. Part of their culture, no amongst them that they entertain their guests with their wives.

That's how the Tivs roll.

You are not better than anybody.
Everybody is capable of doing bad. It is only the Grace of God that keeps one doing what is right
None of us knows what the other is doing as you are even browsing this website and commenting.
