PortHarcourtcit:

This is why you should create a playlist

PastorUwagba:
Blacks may vote kamala

no one cares who the black m*nkeys vote

When I said FG should suspend tertiary education in Nigeria till further notice, people came for my head. The whole tertiary education system is in shambles and is just as useless as their certificates

YorubaPrince:
She's a South African with Nigerian parents.

We blacks are our own biggest problems. All the past winners of this useless event have been whites, and these fools had no issues with it till a black lady with Nigerian background.

You wonder why black pple can never progress.

with all due respect, you sound racist. The whites were south Africans and I am very sure Nigerians will not tolerate a Ghanaian winning anything in Nigeria.

Wildkat02:
You call Russia true Christian country? You think they’re predominantly Christians?

The truth is most of u here on nairaland are kids. If u were aware or born when Christians were being persecuted in Russia you wouldn’t say this warped statement

Lies! Even during the days of Stalin and Lenin, Christianity was never in danger

Olachase:
alright thanks for your point of view

Now can you please advise the Federal government what to do, since you have the wisdom of Solomon

government can sell at a fixed price in naira. It doesn't change anything if the price of crude is still tied to the dollar.

Nigeria is a country that was never intended to succeed. It was formed solely for British gain, so therefore it's leaders don't have any reason to care for it's well-being. Plus the attitude of the populace is not encouraging neither are the tribes compatible with one another. No government however diligent it is can impact long lasting change as long the exploitative system exists

China has a billion people, yet they are not blaming their population. The north is not backward because they are too populated, but it is because of leadership issues. That 12 children a singular northerner has is a big blessing if harnessed for farming and manufacturing. North has everything to develop themselves, except poor leadership and religious extremism.

china has low population growth. High population growth is one of the issues hindering African development. This is not the 17th century where one needs his own children to labour on his farm.

Good because Nigerians will certainly no allow a Ghanaian to hold any position of authority in Nigeria

Giving a dog a bad name to hang it🤮🤡

My great grand father; The Great Ikuku Mmuo used to tell us this story and many other stories when I was little.
He told me how africans were so close and inseparable with nature in time past that they communicated with the earth, animals, trees and all lived in harmony...
The white man came with corruption, greed, disunity,diseases, and their religion to create enemity between brothers who slept in the same womb of mother Africa.

they lived in Harmony yet bini empire conquered half if south west Nigeria, yet Usman Dan fodio conquered northern Nigeria. African Kings literary sold their own people to Europeans and performed human sacrifices all over Africa 🙄

helinues:
That almost a month protest was just useless, imagine how many lives was lost, how many properties destroyed. The finance bill has been secretly passed, the main opposition Raila is now openly working with president Ruto.

John Mbadi, Hassan Joho, even Opiyo wandayi which nobody has ever critized president Ruto more than him have all been appointed as ministers.

Infact, those same protesters jubilated about the appointments of the people above, all president Ruto's sins forgiven as their tribes man are now in government. No more protest

Price of basic things have gradually increased according to my source in Kenya. The businesses that were touched, the foreign investors sent packing which would cost more job loss and add more to Kenya's woes would still be there .

The destroyed government properties, hahaha easy way to embezzle more money all in the name of renovation or rebuilding.

Nigerian youths, any lessons to learn from that?

what source ?

budaatum:
Jobs are never in place. Hopefully, the educated will be able to create jobs for themselves.

As for "Tertiary education in Nigeria is a very big scam", lots of Nigerians are using their Nigerian Tertiary education to improve their lives, but I guess those are the one's who don't believe skool na scam or expect government to employ them.

so what is the use of tertiary education since we can learn skills online and through apprenticeship?

budaatum:
Unfortunately, we have a lot of "skool na scam" people who don't understand that their lack of education contributes to the lack of development, and think government must feed them.

They will of course die of hunger in the end.

why jobs are in place for these loan beneficiaries to enable them repay theur loans after graduation? Tertiary education in Nigeria is a very big scam.

AguluLiar:
Na wá oh!
Why do you people like attaching yourselves to Ikwerre tribe?

Are you coveting the abundant natural resources in the Niger Delta?
Why can't Eebos stay on their own and stop eyeing Niger Deltan resources

stop saying rubbish. Ikwerres are igbos with identity crisis

Omoawoke:
Ogun go kill that white woman!

When they were invading Africa and looting our resources and destroyed our economy and mortgage the soul of Africa most especially west Africans, they did not know?

Every west African have every right to enter the uk and be whatever they choose to. One day, a Nigerian will become the prime minister of UK, that day will surely come.

As a Nigerian, try to get at least one of US passport, British, Australian or Canadian passport. It is your right. And when you get it, you have the same fivking right like this white British bastard and if she dares talk trash to you, show her hell and let them know we own the country together

then stop complaining about colonialism since England is your birthright 🙄. If igbos claim ikwerre land now, you guys will rain fire and brimstone.

clefstone:
you have lost the debate already, move on or provide evidence to counter me. "Onitsha that my mother comes from" is very very weak

whatever makes you feel better bro

This is why abortion should be made legal.

clefstone:
your claims here are uneducated and are at best based on similar things you were told but did not bother to research.

Explain to me why the Onitsha people did not see themselves as Igbo as late as the 1960s( just before the Civil war). Were they also scared to be called Igbos then because of retribution? Or are you not aware that before the Civil war, the people of Onitsha did not accept being called Igbos

lies. The same onitsha my mother comes from?

Obrigardo:
😎

still doesn't answer my question

Obrigardo:
bro, the convicted felon is a rapist. No amount of yapping will change that. America won't vote for a rapist to be president.

and which court convicted him?🤔 Plus Lisa is Simpsons has been a president, mayor,governor and influential figure several times so I don't think this is one of their prediction

saintbillion:
Yeah, but check the dress of the characters involve

there is no prediction here, Lisa in Simpsons has been the president, mayor, governor several times

LocalStandard1:
Firstly before you have the right to talk about the "failings" of African people you should make sure you've contributed to the society first too, else you're just a loud hypocrite.

But you Should also educate yourself enough to realize the "White man" did not single handedly create the "platform" I am using. Their are contributions of every races and peoples to the creation of the phone, internet, rockets, aeroplanes, medicine every areas of life you can think of Black people are even now contributing to things. Infact, you're able to hold the phone in your hands thanks to the contributions of a Black man in chip technology making the telephone portable. Along with plenty in all areas of life.

But if you are only allowed to exist based on your contributions to a so-called "platform", then you do not deserve your life, first of all. And if that is the case then 99.99% of the entire humanity and living things do not also deserve life, as only the most tiny percentage of any groups have any direct contributions to most things. You see how st@pid your logic sounds?

Then again Africa has come a long way, it only gets better for us from here, we've seen it all and have survived it. Now is the time and this is the generation to start getting really educated and enlightened about what Africa and Black people can do to change things for ourselves and start fighting back head on.

People that think like you, people with such little knowledge and ideas about solutions, and people with such low self-esteem and passion can take the back sit quitely.

this stupid ignorance and chest eating mentality of yours is one of the reasons why Africa will remain stagnant forever. You are talking about self esteem when Blacks are the ones claiming Cleopatra and Jesus Christ as Black simply because you have no worthwhile historical figure. Juliet in the Romeo and Juliet story ic being casted as a black person in the movie because blacks want cheap validation to boost their stupid self esteem.
Respect is reciprocal. There is reason why Asians are well respected in America, because rather than shouting about racism and slavery all day, they actually contribute to society on a far larger scale than black Americans can actually think of.
Then you see Africans entering boats and invading another man's land while claiming right and justifying their stupidity and illegality with slavery gaslighting along with bringing their uncivilized behavior with them and refusing to assimilate and adapt into their host society. No one going to respect you if you are dead weight and a constant pain in the ass

Court has overturned his conviction dumbass🙄

Massiveglory:
Dangote don cause trouble.

clefstone:
Is Igbo a language, an ethnic group or both

This question has different answers depending on the time in history. However, one thing is constant and that is the fact the Igbo has always been a language spoken among people of the lower Niger tribes, though of varied dialects.
On the other hand Igbo was not an ethnic group before colonialism. The various Igbo speaking tribes at that time were of different origins, had different culture and did not have any central authority. The Aboh man and the Owerri man was as good as the Aboh man and Yoruba man except for language. The Abohs and their immediate Igbo speaking neighbours during this precolonial times regarded the hinterland Igbo speakers as Igbos. The situation is different today, in that most Igbo speakers East of the Niger have by the process of ethnogenesis, triggered by factors such as colonialism and the Civil war become Igbos. However, not all Igbo speaking tribes were influenced by those factors to become Igbos, chief among those is Aboh.

y'all just keep deceiving yourselves. The reason why igbos didn't have a sense of togetherness before colonialism was because we didn't have large kingdoms like the binis or the Yoruba or the fulanis but we're living in small villages dozens of kilometers apart from each other so it unlikely an obosi man would know another man from ukwani unless he was one of the traders who travel a lot . The western igbos and the 'ikwerres'only started denying being Igbo during the civil war to avoid the Nigerian army. They changed the name of their towns like in Rivers where umuokoro became rumuokoro and obigbo became oyigbo. They lied so much that they began believing their own lies probably because they forgot to teach their children the actual truth. Ibanis in Bonny and opobo do not deny being ijaws, nor the oron in bakassi and Cameroon deny being of the same tribe as their fellows in akwa ibom. Even the Taiwanese still claim their han Chinese heritage. 'Ikwerres' and the 'delta igbos' are just being silly clowns. It gets even worse when they claim to be of descendants of bini empire.😂😂
