Foreign Affairs / Re: Why Are South Korea And Japan So Prosperous by XANDERBOY85: 10:45pm On Jun 21, 2020 |
Nigeriabiafra80: You're getting things muddled up a bit. I was only saying that as an off-shoot of the cold-war between the US and the USSR after WW-II, that the Korean peninsular was divided between the two world powers at the time. My post was on the reason the US was backing South Korea, and not why some countries the US supports do well economically while others don't. There are many factors (mainly domestic/local) that come into play to determine why one country the US support does well while another doesn't. 1 Like |

South Korea, Japan, Singapore and UAE are prosperous because they don't have their heads in the sand....thinking that quota-system, federal character and handing over their country to some backward, islamofascist supremacists is such a good idea! 3 Likes |

AbakalikiPress: I know what your aim is on this thread! You're not Igbo....probably Yoruba (or Fulani), and you just made this post to make it look like Igbos are attacking you guys so that you can start the abuse and dick-measuring with the excuse that it's the Igbos that started it! Why can't you guys just create a thread showcasing your cities....discuss amongst yoursleves and leave it at that! Must you create a thread with the intention to use it for a dragging match with the 'okoros'? It smacks of a serious case of childishness! 12 Likes |

Politics / Re: Anambra State Government Bars Journalist From Covering Anambra Airport Project by XANDERBOY85: 9:44am On Jun 18, 2020 |
For a variety of reasons, i don't support anyone just waltzing in to the project site and asking questions or taking pictures in the name of being a journalist. That doesn't mean i'm against asking the gov't questions on the status of ongoing works at the project site.....just do it through the relevant ministry or dept. There are many negative people whose only interest is painting the entire project and state gov't in a bad light for political, personal or ethnic reasons. Of course the promise to deliver the airport withing 18 months was made before the COVID pandemic, so no reaonable person would still hold the state gov't to that promise. 1 Like |

techmo: Yeah.....it's our 'disgrace'! We didn't complain to you so why taking panadol for our 'headache' (apologies to Davido )? But for the Nigerian political-economy in place since the late 60s that has helped cover up your fuckup, you hateful, bigoted lot would have seen so much socio-economic dislocation that even Zimbabwe would look like paradise in comparison! This is why we don't hear any agitation for the breakup of this unworkable union that even your god Awo declared a 'mere geographical expression' more than 5 decades ago.....you think you can't survive without Nigeria! You dare have the effrontery to advice the south-east.....a region that's been marginalised, cheated, had its hydrocarbon rich areas removed and placed in other non-Igbo states, and undermined by wicked bigots like you? All this, yet it has managed to hold its own in comparison to other regions! You have the temerity to advice such a blessed region when your own region needs such advice more? The south-east hasn't produced a head of state since Ironsis' short spell in power; has only recently been given a regional int'l gateway with the coming of Goodluck Jonathan as President; has been denied adequate exploitation and benefit of the hydrocarbons God has blessed them with (even the ones you evil lot forgot to carve into Rivers state); has been ignored or placed on the back-burner when federally enabled infrastructure, institutions and other benefits are being distributed; etc, yet this plucky region and its people have managed to hold their head above the water and are doing comparatively well in all socio-economic developmental indices! Your own state that has taken your diseased advice and doesn't have a sovereign wealth fund, but has spent all incoming receipts and invested in all the stuff you're advicing Anambra to invest in, are they now El-Dorado? How does your state now compare with Anambra that's part of a region that has suffered all the wicked ethno-religious inspired iniquities listed in the paragraph above yet still manages to soldier on by his grace? It's ignorant fools like you that will advice people not to save until they have satisfied all their wants in life! 37 Likes 2 Shares |

techmo: The day Anambrans start taking advice from a chronic Igbo hater like you is the day i'll book them all a visit to see a shrink! Use your unsolicited advice to advance the interests of your own state or region.....either that or you can stick it where the sun don't shine! Anambra, a state that has one of the lowest recurrent expenditure in the country and, as far as i know, is one of the best states in financial prudence and fulfilling its salary and pension obligations....this is a state you leave your own state to go and advice how to manage its funds!? If Anambrans see the need to have a sovereign wealth fund to save for future generations, how is that a bad thing? Did they tell you they're starving and so desperate for funds that if they don't spend the saved 95 billion naira that they will have socio-economic upheavals? Look how well they managed themselves during the lockdown compared to other states. 131 Likes 14 Shares |

Admissionclass: Na so! Nigeria is not like 'every other African nation'! Fact of the matter is, ANY ethnicity or region (besides the Fulani or core muslim north) that manages to break free from 'one Nigeria' will set the ball in motion that will see others rushing for the exit door too! Tell me what has changed now from when Awo declared (and i paraphrase), 'if by omisssion or commission Biafra is allowed to secede, the Yoruba nation wouldn't bother staying behind to see how 'one Nigeria' works out with just them and the north'! |

Racoon: Since this useless man was sworn-in in 2015 after campaigning, amongst other things, on ending terrorism (they claimed GEJ either allowed it to fester or was directly promoting it because he hates the muslim north), things have not only gotten worse with the once relatively peaceful north-west now just as dangerous as the north-east, but we also find that despite the thousands that have been slaughtered in cold blood, we can't see any terrorists caught, convicted, and sentenced to death! All we ever hear about are terrorist camps being bombed with hundreds of terrorists killed in the process, or we hear of 'repentant' bokites going through rehabilitation and then released back into society! Notice how they call the ones wrecking havoc in the north-west 'bandits'!? They do this so it can't be said that terrorism which was largely confined to the north-east during the GEJ years has now spread to the north-west! You now also hear of brazen attacks in the southern part of the country, but they've craftily called those ones 'herdsmen'! A people (especially dumbass Nigerians) get the kind of leadership and governance they deserve! 17 Likes 3 Shares |
