Foreign Affairs › Re: Did King Charles Ignore A Handshake From A Black Man In Viral Video? by wirinet(m): 1:47pm On Sep 20, 2022
Reference:
Abeg sit down and read your history before speaking.
America was a nation of British want aways, persecuted folks who would not bow to the crown on account of religion. That is its origins.
Australia on the other hand was dumping ground for British castaways, those who will not conform to society where sent there to eternal exile.
See what bothe nations have become today, friends and allies with their former tormentors.
It is not only blacks that have suffered in this world. All humanity has been inhuman to man.

Most blacks think history started in 1887 and that it is only Africa that was plundered and her people enslaved.
How can you compare Australia to Black Africa? Australians see themselves as British migrants with Britain as their home country. The original aborigines has been almost eliminated. Black Africans were seen as slaves and their lands exploited for colonial interests.

Reference:
America fought a brutal war with Britain between 1775 and 1783 that secured her independence and ended the First British Empire.
Since then America has developed itself to the point that today their President is given special privileges.

Much of Africa meanwhile negotiated its independence in and around the 1960's and ended the second British Empire in the process but has seen a steady decline ever since till the point they have assumed the position of third world nations whose leaders ride the bus.

Instead of introspection, her citizens are still punching at shadows.
In a world where everyone was practically conquered by the British at one time or the other from Asia to the Americas, from the Arctic to the Antarctic, in a world that is all but english speaking, with english customs and traditions dominating, it is only Africa that still cannot surmount this fact of history. Every other continent has moved on and are all bigger and better than the British today except Africa.

The endless whining and groaning and sighing is the clear sign where the problem is.... in the African head, the African mentality that has lent itself to excuses for failure and the inability to take responsibility for becoming great in itself.

I have said it time and again.
Britain did not become Great by excuses. They were overrun by the famous Roman General and Emperor Julius Caesar. Before then the Kelts, Vikings, even the French all at one time in antiquity conquered Britain and enslaved its people. They too fought to become what they are today. I do not see any Briton today hate on these people, the sons and daughters of their former foes for things done in generations past.

WHEN WILL AFRICA LET GO AND BEGIN TO RE CREATE ITSELF TO BECOME GREAT.
Every day of excuses will never move us forward as a national continent of blacks. FACT.
Respect is earned not given. What has black Africa done to earn the respect of other races? Instead we disgrace ourselves both at home and abroad and then expect other to respect us for the sake of pity.

Arabs respect dogs more than blacks, Asians respect cockroaches more than blacks, while are the only ones that tolerate us because of pity.

Rubbish. If you drive dangerously and endanger life in UK you will get a driving ban or be jailed. The guy below was jailed for 27 months so don't come here peddling ignorance.
Yes dangerous or even drung driving can lead to jail time, but not to forfeiture of property.

Per driving ban that is very effective in the UK, how many road users have driving license in Nigeria, to be on the road in the first place, let alone fear a ban?
That's implicating the numerous traffic agencies as being useless. Who's fault is it if LASTMA, VIO, FRSC, Police, etc, that populate our rides are not doing their jobs?

Make them pay a fine, I know nobody wants to pay maybe 50k every day due to driving offences.
In another country, you pay a fine, for wrong driving offences. In Nigeria, they sell the car even after going to prison.

Nigeria operates like a mad country.
Meanwhile politicians that cause the terrible traffic situation in the first place by embezzling billions meant for road construction and maintenance are according to the law told to pay fines of a few millions with little or no jail time. They don't realise that embezzlement and corruption kills far more people than traffic offenders.
Nigerian laws are stiff on minor offences by poor people but very lenient on major crimes by the rich and powerful.

Because many Africans are ignorant and mentally lazy. They cannot remove their heads from tribal bigotry to see the global issues affecting the black man worldwide. They do not want to come together because of their selifsh hearts. You will hardly see any positive posts in the media about what African is doing right. Even Seun, the owner of this website will allow posts to degrade "black women" on the front page, not realizing these types of things further add to the division of the black race. You cannot be strong if you are divided.
Gbam. You just summed up all the problems blacks face with one word - Division.

Division was the tool the slave merchants used in enslaving black Africa not conquest.

Division was the tool colonialists uses in colonising and govern Black Africa.

And Division is still the tool the neo-colonalists used to control Africans resources post independence.

The divisions are so ingrained that it's difficult to unify to achieve a common purpose. The division was created among tribal, religious and class lines.

Old is relative... to continue to ascribe subsaharan Africa's present failures to the slave trade & subsequent colonial times is disingenuous & an excuse for African rulers to continue to fleece the masses.

Neocolonialism exists because Africans continue to show that they have little regard for themselves.
Even I feel we should have gone beyond slavery to start building modern societies, it is sad that we have not. The effects of slavery is still ingrained in our sub-consciousness. This is further reinforced through religion, education, language and economy.

We need to undergo psychological evaluation and evolution. Just like someone who endured decades of mental and physical abuse would need psychological treatment to be able to function properly in society.

We are still suffering from Stockholm Syndrome, where we are hopelessly dependent on our colonisers.

Understatement of the century. Ask student that studied in Ukraine whether Ukrainians are racists. When the Russian invasion started black Africans were not allowed on trains going to border towns and some had to trek hundreds of kilometres to get to bordering countries.

The government of Russia obviously cannot be racist, just like any other government cannot openly exhibit racism. But government officials and ordinary people display their racism, particularly outside the capitals and main cities.

The below is unrelated, but I decided to share with all anyways - especially for those “exporting” the rot in Nigeria to foreign lands.

"Up Till About 25 Years Ago, Singer Nigeria Limited had Factories In Nigeria where They Produced Television Sets, Radios, Refrigerators, Standing Fans, etc.
Singer Had A Unique Corporate Marketing Strategy.
They Didn't Sell On Cash-And-Carry But On Credit To Their Wholesalers.
I Don't Know The Reason For This Strategy Though.

Soon, Nigerians Began To Apply As Whole Sellers Using Fake Business Names And Addresses.
Many Would Pack The Products And Never Paid Up As And When Due.
By 1996, Singer Went Down And Closed All Her Factories In Nigeria!

At The Cocoa Industries Limited, Ikeja, As The Company Was At The Verge Of Closing Down Completely, I Met The Last MD Of The Company.
As At That Time, Himself, His Driver And Four Security Men Were The Reminant Members Of Staff Of The Company.

I Asked What Led To The Terrible State Of The Company At The Time When There Was Increase In The Consumption Of Cocoa Products.
He Narrated His Experiences In All The Oodua Groups; How The Various MDs, GMs And Managers Would Collude With The Drivers And Security Men To Load Products Out Without Proper Entries.

How Those Goods Were Delivered To Oga's Concubines In Different Towns And Cities Who Would Never Remit The Proceeds To The Company.
Of All The Over 150 Companies Wholly Owned By Oodua Group, None Is Functioning Again As At Today.

Only Those Companies Where Oodua Jointly Owned With Others Are Working.
When Next You Are Worried About The Serlous State Of Affairs In Nigeria, Maybe Some Children Need To Ask Their Parents To Sincerely Tell Them The Sources Of The Money They Used To Build Their Various Houses.

You May Need To Know The Sources Of Their Wealth. Is Their Wealth Part Of The Over-Invoicing Or Non Invoicing Of Products And Services? Ask Them, Was It Part Of The Shared "Annual Unspent Budget"?
The Ruination Of Nigeria Didn't Begin In One Day. It Didn't Start With PDP Or APC, JOnathan or BUhari. It Was Through Minute Indiscipline, Deliberate Impunity, Arrogant Exercise Of Power, Ineptitude And Greed.”

The Indiscipline, Impunity, Arrogant Exercise Of Power, Ineptitude And Greed Still Continue Till Today, Not Till We Look Inward And Change Our Ways, We Will Never See The Nigeria We Hope For.

All The Countries We're Running To Are Not Better Than Nigeria, It Is The People That Are Better Than Us.

Let Us Change Our Ways, And We Will See The Nigeria We Hope For.
Thanks For Your Time.
Unbelievable. I had thought your only compulsive obsession was Donald Trump first, the MAGA wing of the Republican Party and finally right wing media. That you could come back to mother land and focus on our own problems is quite impressive.

This post summarises all that's wrong with Nigeria. Its the people themselves and not necessarily our leaders - be it political, religious or traditional rulers. Afterall leaders are gotten from the people and they represent the character and aspirations of the people. Any religious leader that promotes real values like honesty, selflessness and integrity would quickly become unpopular. Those that promote vain primordial values of greed, selfishness and even narcissism become popular and is quickly pushed up the leadership ladder.

What we need at this critical junction is a moral reset, a moral revolution. We need to stop promoting and celebrating unmerited wealth. We need to start rejecting criminals rather than rewarding them with awards, positions and fame. We need to go back to the days when a good name is better than gold.

British people sha Well. All the monies made during colonialism dint just disappear it went into their society nhs budget is 100 billion pounds. That’s more than our entire budget for years. Just thier health ministry o

. It was common for most British people to say I have a family member working in Nigeria Ghana. India. Egypt Gambia etc. all over the world. During colonialism. Before almagamation they had underground train tracks with almost modern trains , while they built coal trains for Africans and Indians They exploited everything. In fact as founding members of UN. and other financial institutions they made it hard for countries to get assess to finance, if any, these finance loans comes with weird clauses like thier engineers or companies do the construction etc

They watched on as Rwanda killed themselves. Them and France oversaw the killing of prominent Africans All them lumumba, Sankara ,khadafi Them and Americans exploited the most beautiful place in the world “the Congo” they turned the country inside out. They saw Mobutu do what he did nothing happened



Inall these they are far better than Asians. Asians treat Africans with utter brazen contempt.
When I lived in Bristol I saw an Asian man hit a little black kid maybe aged 10 or so. I challenged the situation immediately. He feigned apology the moment he saw the type of car I alighted from. Anyways I made sure the police came. But this is something you can’t stop he will do it again or some other Asian will. But they won’t dare hit other Asians or whites, never. Rich Niger or poor nigger. You re still a nigga

After living and staying abroad you only know that our only point of rally is our skin colour. We must unite and build a strong nation . People like Buhari lawan etc have no business leading. Because they re weak. The Chinese have puppet govt in Pakistan Bengali Nepal and may African countries now. The Chinese can just wake up tomorrow to burn Nigeria to the ground. We can’t protect our selves. If no country comes to our aid that’s it. They will burn Nigeria while we squabble between youruba and Igbo. In the eyes of foreigners they only see the black skin.

I wonder how people don’t know this.
The bolded is the crust of the matter. As long as we neglect and destroy our country while hoping to take sojourn in the countries of our colonial exploiters will only make us perpetual slaves. I lived in the UK and the US very briefly, and I could not stand the way we were denigrated. Forget life is not only about materialism, else wealthy nations like Japan won't have such a high suicide rate. You have to have pride and dignity as a human being.

As you said the Asians and the Arabs including the Jews despise the black skin even more than the western Europeans. Eastern Europeans racism is in another league.

WHAT DO YOU THINK SHOULD BE DONE IN A CASE OF A TRAFFIC OFFENSE SUCH AS DRIVING ALONG 'ONE WAY' WHICH RESULTED TO LOSS OF LIFE DUE TO ACCIDENT.
The driver should be charged for manslaughter, the car should be fined appropriately and returned to the owner.

Whether he drove one way, drunk while driving or drove dangerously, once a life was involved, the driver should be prosecuted for manslaughter.

There is no need to confuse yourself here. It's like we are saying the same thing till you made another turn.

The thing is, Lagos trafic law was violated and vehicles were towed and the owners will pay to get their cars back as it's done all over the world. So tell me did Lagos not give them the option to get their cars back for fees?

Please be clear, what did Lagos do differently?
Lagos State Government officials have been telling us that the law for driving against traffic (one way) is forfeiture and auction of vehicle as well as one year imprisonment of the driver. I am yet to see the edict passed by the Lagos State Assembly to support the law. (Even though it would be unconstitutional if it did so)

Now, I have no problem with the one year imprisonment of the driver, but why punish the owner of the vehicle for a crime he knows nothing about?
I have 3 vehicles plying Lagos roads everyday. Even though I put it in their ears everyday to obey traffic rules, why will the Lagos State Government confiscate my vehicle if one of the drivers decides to go rogue? If it was to be a reasonable fine. I would pay the fine and deduct it from the drivers salary, but how would I deal with the impounding of my car?
Don't forget there might be all sorts of obligations on the car - Loan, lease, insurance, etc.

Wrong! If the states can't make and have power on motor vehicle ordinances, then Nigeria is a slave warehouse as I said earlier. For example all over the world, it's not a crime If you park in the wrong place but your car can still be towed, impounded and auctioned off if you don't pay your fines. I'm sure Lagos gave them that option but they didn't meet up. How can you people love being tied down like animals and be proud of it?
No one is questioning the powers of states to regulate motor ordinances or even land and property. What I am saying is no state should have the power to deprive citizens of their property without following constitutional provisions.

Abroad as you stated, they do not confiscate your car by towing it. They tow it in lieu of you paying the stipulated fines. The government do not convert your car to your property. It can only do that if you refuse to come to claim your car after a stipulated period and going through a proper judicial process.

Even in Nigeria there are laws and procedures for confiscation of citizens properties (and even money) which are tied to criminal offense.

Here are the legal procedures for confiscating citizens private property.

How is it unconstitutional? What is the local law got to do with Abuja constitution? Impounded vehicles are auctioned off all over the world if the terms to get the cars back are not met. If dept of motor vehicle too, cityhall or whatever it's called is under Abuja, then Nigeria is a slave warehouse. What power is left for people in their homelands? Sick!
Abuja law is what binds the country together and it is superior to any other law.

Vehicles are impounded and auctioned off all over the world if they proven to be proceeds of crime or used to commit a crime after the owner had been found guilty by a court of competent jurisdiction, and not for civil traffic violations.

Section 44 of "Abuja law"
(1) No moveable property or any interest in an immovable property shall be taken possession of compulsorily and no right over or interest in any such property shall be acquired compulsorily in any part of Nigeria except in the manner and for the purposes prescribed by a law that, among other things -

(a) requires the prompt payment of compensation therefore and

(b) gives to any person claiming such compensation a right of access for the determination of his interest in the property and the amount of compensation to a court of law or tribunal or body having jurisdiction in that part of Nigeria.

Kindly read what you quoted over again and especially the last part. Aren’t we saying the same thing, sir?
Away from that, every state has its own set of rules which must be enforced and if any of these enacted rules doesn’t go down well with you, you’re free to leave the state to other places not enforcing such laws. You have no right to say other people’s state laws isn’t right , and if you think you can, go to Saudi Arabia and challenge their public execution capital punishment laws. We can only appeal to the Lagos State govt to review this particular law with a view to ensuring that the punishment is reduced to making these offenders pay heavy fines or just locking them up as no punishment is too much for someone who doesn’t care if his action causes bodily harms or death to other humans. No punishment is too much for attempted murder. The rate of insanity going on in Lagos is way too much. Go to the Republic of Benin or Togo by road and the first thing you would notice is how orderly the motorists comport themselves while driving (I think something is inherently wrong with most Anglophone African countries). There are dedicated lanes for motorcyclists who are always wearing their protective helmets. Traffic sanity must be restored in Nigeria by fire by force. Nigerians need iron-fisted type of governance.
You are still engaging in emotional blackmail to press home your point. I have lived in Lagos more than you have time you have lived on earth. I have higher stake in Lagos than you do, so quit that nonsense and childish rant of "leave Lagos if you are not happy with the government or laws".

Just like I was screaming about the Lagos State Environmental Laws passed by the Lagos State Assembly over 10 years ago before It was overturned at the courts, the law impounding and auctioning people's cars for traffic offenses is unconstitutional. It cannot survive judicial scrutiny. If someone is motivated and rich enough to take the law to a federal high Court all the way to the Supreme Court, the Lagos State Government would lose. I have already outlined the main problem of the law, which is that traffic offenses unless injury or death is involved are civil matters and that most times the driver that commit the traffic offense is different from the car owner.

Nigerians are unruly not only in traffic situations but in almost all facets of life. This is because our laws and institutions are very weak, especially against the rich and powerful. They rich and powerful elite break the law with impunity without any fear or consequences. The ordinary man see these and feels tempted to break the law alsk, but suffers the consequences when caught.

You’re also right. I was not fully in support of this auctioning at first but that stance changed when I started seeing people narrating their ordeals just because some mobile fools decided to be unfortunate. Why should anyone suffer as a result of someone else’s stupidity and negligence?
Oga barrister should go and tell this to the faces of people who have had their loved ones either killed or perpetually restricted to wheelchairs without any hope of ever living a normal life again. But I still believe a heavy fine should be the best way to go. Encouraging people to buy auctioned items is nothing but promoting the habit of stealing and I see no reason why that should be legal in the first place. Also, this defaulters should be tried in courts with pictorial and video evidence.
You are looking at the issue with emotions instead of logic and fairness. Most negligence or laws that are flouted often results in death or injury. That does not justify the seizing or appropriating of someone else's properties. Over speeding, breaking traffic light, drunk driving, driving without a valid license, etc has resulted in death or injury to others. So also building without approvals have caused buildings to collapse resulting in numerous deaths.
Eating and drinking non approved drugs, foods and drinks has resulted in even more deaths. Will the seizing and auctioning of the buildings used be appropriate punishment while leaving the actual perpetrators of the crime?

The law is like religion: different people will always interprete it the way that best suits their own narrative.
The impounding and auctioning of peoples properties without following due process of the law is unconstitutional. If there is any law to that effect by the Lagos State Assembly, that law is unconstitutional.

First of all, Traffic offences are civil offences unless where cases that resulted in death or injury. Then we can start talking of manslaughter or injury.

Secondly, in most cases the person that violate the traffic law is not the owner of the car. It might be a driver, a borrowed car or even a stolen car. Which law permits the punishing a person for offenses commited by another person? What will be the punishment for the driver of a car not belonging to him or her?

Thirdly, the Lagos state government is adept at taking law into its own hands. They believe they are the accuser, judge and executioner for all alleged offenses. They can impound your car for the flimsiest reasons, they can seal your house or shop with little notice all without passing through the courts.

They take the advantage of the costly, slow and tedious judicial process to exploit and blackmail citizens, as they know most people can't sue them to court for all their excesses.

Of course you are not daft
You are the daftest. How many other third world countries that you see their citizens go to other countries and start constituting nuisance? We have Ghanaians, Jamaicans, indians, Sri Lankans, etc, immigrating to other countries - legally or illegally, and they work quietly making money for themselves and families back home. You guys go to other countries and start doing drugs, scam and cultist. When the government and the people start reacting, you will start shouting hate and looking for who to blame. From South Africa to Ghana, from India to Malaysia. Now even UAE a tourist country, is restricting Nigerians from travelling to their country.

This is one reason I support division of Nigeria into Biafra, Arewa, Niger Delta and Oduduwa. The international community would be able to identify the criminal tribes and sanction appropriately. I am tired of being profiled along with tribes that spoil our image abroad.

Oh you agree Harold Wilson supported the war? But you think Eliza and her cabinet were oblivious of such support? Do you know why the House of Lords and commons was established? NO decision on international politics can be sanctioned and taken without the House of Lords approving it. The people there are NOT elected. They come from a long line of dukes for centuries.
The House of Commons was created when farmers started agitation and demanding for proper accountability of their taxes to the British monarchy. To avoid a catastrophic rebellion they gave them a parliament to give the peasant farmers a sense of belonging. They elect between themselves BUT still come to the House of Lords for approval. That way the common man gets what he wants while the monarchy and the Lords keep their authority. So if you think the monarchy didn’t give full authorisation for the war, pick up a book and read.
What do you mean give full authorisation for the war? You mean the monarch was informed and gave authorization for war before Ojukwu declared independence and Nigeria sent troops to stop the secession?

It is then that this make-believe academic will display her ignorance and stupidity for the entire world to see. Making stupid rants on twitter is one thing. Defending your statements from pointed, penetrating questions/dissections from a debater in front of an audience is a completely different universe, a thing that requires good education, significant knowledge base, poise and most importantly, intelligence, all qualities that this ignorant mentally challenged lesbian degenerate lack.

That's why I suspect her professorship. I can excuse ipob and its supporters because they are mainly illiterates, but for a so called professor to display such ignorance is unbelievable.

The British monarch has no powers to declare war or engage in foreign policy. That's the job of the government of the day. It was the government of prime minister Neville Chamberlain that declared war on Germany not the king. It was the government of James Harold Wilson that supported the Nigerian side in the Biafran war and not queen Elizabeth and it was the government of Margaret Thatcher that declared war on Argentina in 1982 and not queen Elizabeth.

The tax imposed on them was abolished. Her people fought in the civil war and she lost family members (which was her main anger and reason for that tweet). And YET you say her forebears chose slavery over death?? Do you now see how dumb you sounded? Instead of demanding history back into your academic curriculum from fellow men like you who you call ‘leaders’ you are here cussing uju. Uju has more balls than most Nigerian men.
Her mother's did not fight the British, they only rioted against taxation. Many other tribes in Africa fought the British directly in a war and lost. The Binin kingdom fought the British and lost, the King was murdered in Broad daylight and the Benin people massacred. The Benin people had moved on. You won't find them bringing back old wounds and making an enemy of the British people.

If most Igbos supports Biafra movement. Then the same percentage of them that support it will also support uju arya statement. That is how you get the picture
So most igbos see the British monarchy with is the sovereign of the British people as their enemy?

Will that help them in getting their Biafra?

Of course Eliza isn’t the problem now because she is dead. The point uju made was that Eliza oversaw a civil war that claimed the lives of her family members.she didn’t accuse Eliza or the British government for anything else! My point still stands, those who call her a coward will NOT dare to exchange words with the richest man in the world no matter what he says against them. Infact they will take the condescending tweets from bezos as an achievement lol. Nigerian men are that lowly minded. Most of them calling uju a coward can’t even look face to face with their local government chairmen for fvck sake!
What do you mean by oversaw? Was she the one that instigated or started the civil war? Was the the one that instructed the government of James Harold Wilson to support Nigeria as against Biafra?

What exactly were her direct roles in the Nigerian civil war according to your accusations?

A man was dating three women and wanted to decide who to marry.
He then gave them a test. He gave each woman $10,000 and observed what each did with the money.
The first one did a total make-over which included a fancy hair style, make up and several new outfits. She then dressed up for the man and said, "I have done this to make myself more attractive to you because I love you so much." The man was impressed.

The second woman went and bought gifts for the man. She bought him a new smartphone, a Rolex watch and very flashy clothes. As she presented these gifts to him she said, "I've spent all the money on you because I love you so much." The man was again impressed.

The third one invested the money in the stock market. She earned $40,000 and gave him back his $10,000. She then deposited the remainder in a joint account. She told him that she wanted to secure their future because she loved him so much. Obviously the man was very impressed.

The man thought for a long time about what each woman had done with the money.
In the end he left all three ladies
And married one of his side chick the one with the biggest buttock .

*MEN will always be MEN.*
Happy weekend
The moral of the story is, the first one should have used her own $10,000 to include big bottom in her make over.

Our problems in Africa is that many of us don't know History.
Do you know how Attah of igala died?
The Queen contributed.
Do you know what killed Jaja of Opobbo?
The Queen killed him.
The Queen stole large amount of diamonds from S/A.
Mandela survived by God's grace.
Wishing the Throne well is bcuz of God
If not She commited Atrocious acts in the world.
And did any Igala person wish the late monarch a painful death?

Did any South African insult the sovereign of the British monarchy and by extension the British people?

Why always the Igbos? You guys take about everyone hating the igbos, why don't you mention the igbos hating every other person first?

The British people are still grieving their monarch, you will see a worse backlash after they are through grieving. You don't insult the parents of a grieving person unprovoked.

So proud of you Uju. she got the warrior blood in her.

Now just wait and see bitter lamentations from our brothers now on this thread.
Are you insinuating that igbos support her insults on the newly deceased British monarch? Is it her personal opinion or the the opinion of the generality of igbos? The British public might want to know.
