Hezzyluv:My point exactly... Personally I feel Nigeria would have been a much better place if we never had Crude oil. |
olioxx:I follow him on nairaland and YouTube too... The guy literally changed my perseption about Russia. He has stopped posting regularly on his nairaland diary again. |
This is quite an interesting piece and funny enough it's true. Nigerians and many other Africans living in the United States often make videos on Tiktok where there ask Americans questions about about Africa and other parts of the world ... Watching these videos made me realize how misinformed the Americans themselves are about the rest of the world. This was how I came to realize more about the errors of the Western media. For a very long time , I used to see Russia as a very desolate, cold, rigid place with mean and awful people that is run by a dictatorship kind of government by Putting but I came to realize how wrong that perseption is when I started following a Nairaland diary about a Nigerian student living in Russia and I got to realize that Russia isn't as Bad as the Western media potrayed them. |
BadRadio:No be small thing oh... I don't know how the situation is now but all barracks (army, Navy , air Force etc) were the worst place to raise a child. As a child you got exposed to a lot of vices at a very tender age and parents needed to be very strict with their kids because the place corrupts kids a lot. |
I will go straight to the point... Despite what many people think , Crude oil was/has always been more of a curse than a blessing to us and maybe if we never had it, the country would have been much better than it is now, and I'll give you the reasons why I think so... 1. It was basically the main reason why nigeria fought a civil war: If the Biafran region didn't have oil, the Nigerian Government wouldn't have fought so hard to try to keep them together. 2. It was the reason why Nigeria doesn't practice true federalism today: The unitary system we practice today was to enable the Government control the resources (which was mainly crude oil) 3. It caused the country to lose concentration on other revenue making sources which in turn caused many of them to collapse and deteriorate. 4. Due to the fact that other sectors like Agriculture, industrialization, exportation etc were mostly neglected and underutilized, it caused to the increase in unemployment, inflation etc. 5. It caused the other non-oil regions not to utilize and develop the other resources that they have, since they were all waiting for allocations. I'll drop more points on this thread but tell me what you think... Am I right or wrong.? |
I spent the first 10 years of my life in a military barracks.... I don't even need to tell you how that destroyed my innocence. If you've lived in the barracks, you'll know what I'm talking about. ![]() ![]() ![]() |
tradepunter:I agree with what you said ... However the truth is that , the guy was very stupid. He knew very well that he was an illegal immigrant and still went to a police station. Many people fail to realize that no matter what , "a crime will always be a crime". If I was him, I would have kept the cash and used it to work my documents, sometimes we have to put our common sense first before our moralities. |
APC party as a whole behave like a sore child that is extremely happy when he wins and throws tantrums when he loses. GEJ congratulated the the disaster at Aso Rock when he lost at 2015 and the sky didn't fall. |

I really felt for him, I'll bet he was thinking that after his selfless act , the government will reward him with papers. As long as they was no form of identification in the bag containing the money he should have kept it for himself (maybe that was Good sending him blessings). He knew fairly well that he didn't have any documents but still went to a police station. The Spanish Government has done something bad to themselves because this will cause any illegal immigrant from doing any selfless acts in the future. |
Jesus ,!!! I'm still in shock, I'll comment when I recover from the shock. |
chatinent:Lol

jikins:Whoever you are , God bless you for understanding what the series was all about and not limiting your sense of reasoning.... One of the reasons why our country is so backwards is because of the Myopic sense of thinking we have with some people in this country and Africa as a whole. Many people don't understand that in Biology, an organism will adapt when situations change in an attempt to survive. I'm sure the guy arguing with you doesn't even realize that according to evolution every sense, skill, and ability he possesses is due to many years of human adaptation. It's a really good series but clearly it's only for open-minded people. |
[quote author=Baddestguyp post=107596457]the entire premise makes no sense actually... Humans would hardly survive if they all lost their sight... It's practically impossible... Not just some humans but all... No matter how well the other senses have adjusted, humans would hardly survive... Humans need the build shelter, need to farm for food, need to travel, need medicines and those who will apply or perform those medical acts, need to trade, need to build weapons to survive and also to fight, etc They aren't animals...it's [b]almost [/b]impossible for humans to survive without sight when it's not some but all... But then it's fiction...[/quote]First of all, as u said it's Fiction. But take time and notice someone who's blind especially those who were born blind or have been blind for a very long time and you'll notice that there have somehow gained some level of Independence and a strong awareness for of their environment. I knew of a blind lecturer in my University who was in Mass comm department, he was a very good at giving lecturers and his movement was almost accurate, infact if you are not very observant, you won't notice that he's blind In terms of survival , I don't think humans will go extinct if humanity lost its sense of sight , it might be difficult for the first few years but after a while I think some will have found ways to live, build and survive generally and even have children who would possess even sharper senses than their parents. I know it's Fiction but I love how the show's producers have been able to accurately give us a probability of how the world would have been without sight. With your comment, I think you haven't watched the series yet, because if you have you'll understand what the story writer's were trying to show. |
If this makes it to FP, someone should credit my bank account. |
