Kobojunkie:
The above mentality is part of the problem we have as a people . . .  we have no faith in our abilities that even when handed democracy, an opportunity to chart our own future, and that of our children, on a platter of gold, we continue to mess it all up.

Does it even occur to you that democracy is not the solution?

Crude Oil:
I know the masses are also culpable, but thats not the main problem.
And truly speaking, with the present scheme of events, the future is very dark.

The only constant factor in Nigeria, from inception to now, is the human factor, which makes it the main problem. Kill them all, and the problem is solved. . . he he he , I am just joking. But, i hope you get my point.

Crude Oil:
Lol. Do you think the Nigerian problem comes from the masses? If you do, you are wrong!

We are the problem, but not in the way Kobojunkie described.

To absolve the ordinary Nigerian of our problems, is to not acknowledge the problem at all.

iv4real:
@ seun its not a nollywood movie. I don't knw if such has been acted in a nollywood movie, i am not up to date on nollywood movies. But this happened for real to a girlfriend of mine.

I think I have watched the movie before. Was it Nolly-wood or yoruba-wood.

Yes, I agree it was a very nice script.

OAM4J:
This generation is wasted already, let just hope the coming generation will not.

I agree with you. This is a wasted generation.
Enahoro moved the motion for independence at 28. Ojukwu led his people to self-annihilation at 34. At 33 Soyinka was already taking leadership roles in Nigeria. At age 31 Bola Ige was already a national figure, he "was at the center of the Action Group crisis, when Chief Obafemi Awolowo was pitted against his deputy, Chief Samuel Ladoke Akintola."

This generation, aka The Kokomansion generation, aka the Facebook generation, aka the Skype Generation, aka The 24/7 Nairaland generation, aka The Internet gangster generation , aka The Sit-In-Obodo-Oyinbo-And-Criticize-Those-Working-Hard-At-Home-Generation, aka The Whining generation, aka personality worshiping generation, aka Buhari supporting generation,  is a wasted generation.

The problem then is who would groom the next generation?

The future is really bleak, I tell ya.

Beaf fall my Nyansh I tell you

iwonbaoko:
by editing my remarks in this way you misrepresent them.it is not my job to school you.clearly a bit late now. the question was aimed at the addressee in a context which you have deleted and so it is meaningless, the way you misrepresent me.
you have nothing to tell or teach me i did not know before. you do not not belong among
humans

She is not a Nigerian.

She is a scammer looking for people to swindle. She is latvian

ZnO:
The North will also depend on the South (or get from elsewhere) for the following
Plantains, banana, oranges, Yam, rice, cassava palm oil (okay they will eat g/nut oil lol)

Frankly, it takes a couple of Igbo importers to flood southern Nigeria (or at least Igbo land if the country is dividing) with food produce as a stop gap. Meanwhile large scale food cultivation goes on. In parts of the East, namely Imo and Anambra, land will no longer be an issue because we (the Igbo intelligentsia) will introduce landless farming to augment land still abundantly available in Ebonyi, Enugu and Abia.

The days land dictate agriculture are coming to an end.

[size=18pt]ROFLMAO[/size]

You just copied that from me. There is nothing like Igbo intelligentsia investing in agriculture.

ekt_bear:
^-- We don't need a large # of people farming, lol. We just need to shift from primitive farming techniques to modern ones. 40% or so of the economy is agriculture, but a lot of that is a guy with a hoe laboring by himself over a field. Not using a tractor, fertilizer, chemicals, etc.
The PDF I posted is for commercial farming, which again doesn't require as many people.
I'm GLAD that people are moving off of the farm. Hopefully those old farmers will sell of their farmlands so we can consolidate and have huge, efficient farms.
Moving off of the farms is a good thing. . . the US already went through this process.

I totally agree with you that  if Nigeria is to be reckoned among the truly advanced and prosperous nations of the world, measures must
be introduced that would considerably reduce the number of people engaged in farming and at the same time absorb those
displaced from the farmlands. This must, however, only follow after an improvement of the efficiency  and productivity of the farming population through the introduction  of modern and scientific methods of farming throughout the country, which is totally lacking right now. As of now, at this point in our history/development, what we need is more people pending when we can mechanize. That is the advantage the North has over us in the South.


Right now, the majority of the population is not investment conscious, so the government, either directly or through its agencies, would have to stimulate and increase agricultural productivity . Something I dont think this government is willing to do, for the ROI on agriculture isnt as buoyant or lucrative as importing refined 'oyel' from Obodo-Oyinbo.

Tomatoes can be grown in the south. Nobody should feel blackmailed because of tomatoes  

Absolutely!

No one is denying that. In secondary school, we cultivated Tomato.

But the point here is large scale production. The south is more educated and most people find it beneath them to go back to the farm. Even graduates of Agricultural economics/extension/engineering want to work in the banks.

The people working on farms right now, in the south, are mostly older folks with little or no education. Frankly, 10 years from now, I doubt there would be much southerners on the farms, making us more dependent on the farmers up north for our daily needs.

As long as the trend continues, we will continue to rely on our more hardworking, benevolent brothers in the North for our needs WRT staple foods.

A lot of ignorant posters on this thread.


Ezeuche, i seriously advise you to at least spend a day in Nigeria before you start posting dumb comments on NL.

You are beginning to sound reeetarded and just plain ignorant of anything Nigeria.

mama-gee:
[color=deeppink]You mean people like you?

reetards who can't even seperate complex comments. . .[/color]

[size=18pt]ROFLMAO[/size]

Mama-Gee. FYI, I am a big fan of yours.

How you doing, Mummy-Gee?

rosefleurs:
I'm happy to put a mirror to your whoring scamming self. 

I like you. You've got spunk!

kodewrita:
You are an e-diot.

Y[b]ou expect someone with limitless potential to risk his/her life[/b] for a paltry 15k salary for a government that will not save you when you call. Who gives a flying f**ck about truck drivers. thats a life choice they made. Corpers are forced by nigerian law to give a year for mostly useless activities.

Common? Stop being melodramatic.
You think someone who majored in Igbo language or Sociology has limitless potential?

A graduate of Nassarawa State Univeisty/UNIBEN has limitless potential?

Common, take your head outta your arse for a second and think about what you just posted? So we shouldnt care when truckdrivers, with wives and children, get killed on our treacherous roads? So in your opinion, the life of a barely literate , lazy scammer c/u/m youth corper is worth more than a tax paying, hardworking, responsible truck driver, innit?

Bravo!

Bravo!!

Now clap for yourself.

meine:
Your situation is Pathetic, they should continue to kill the innocent guys abi?

They get paid, dont they?

All jobs are risky, NO?

If you look at the ratio killed to not-killed, you'd agree with me that being a corper is a far safer job than being a truck driver for example. Yet, no one has deemed it necessary to make any noise about the precariousness of truck driving.

You all are bunch of bigots c-u/m reetrads.

ogaemma:
you have my support. if our votes should count,then the lives of our youth corpers must count.t[b]hey are the future leaders of this country.[/b]

Future looters ediot!

All corpers are scammers.

^^^^

Nice article.

Still waiting for you to post your thread on "Yoruba firsts"

When should I expect it?

Mods, what are you doing? NL politics section seems to have gone to the dogs.

This thread:

https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-652390.0.htmll should not be allowed on Nairaland.

Ezeuche, Beaf, Seanet, Alj Uche and Jason are trying to e-bully me. I am not taking this lightly, and neither should you. I think something needs to be done ASAP. I am really terrified for my life The type of Hate that is being spewed on that thread is unprecedented, even by Fstranger's Standard.

Please do something about it. Delete the thread and ban all posters on that thread. Please, i am counting on you guys. Dont fall my hand oooo

gidson12:
in times like this people get reasonable, we re talking about a like of an innocent corper here, and your're still hard bent on being tribalistic, i thought you do all these for fun, man you are heartless,

Well, he is using the death of an innocent Corper to further his anti-North and anti-Yoruba sentiments. How is that different from me not acknowledging the supremacy of an Igbo-life over others.

When Five innocent people were killed in Osun -State, he flippantly disregarded the deaths, mocking it with his usual "Wild Wild West" slogan.

You both can go hug a transformer, I really could care less.

Kobojunkie:
I am sure you do not believe that trash . . . . especially since we are speaking here of the Nigerian situation, not even America  . . . . . ROFLMAO!!

You dont get it.

All the presidential candidates are the same. Irrespective of who becomes the president, the SW, and the individual states, would still get the same amount of money from the federal account. So, the most important election is the local one, these are the people who would be  in charge of the money and would, depending on who gets elected, spend the money right or wrong.

Buhari or GEJ, Lagos State, for instance, would still draw the same amount of money from the federal account. Since the money Lagos would draw from the federal account wouldnt change regardless of the personality occupying Aso-Rock, what is important is who becomes the Governor of Lagos, the ideas he brings to the table,  and who he works with in the State Assembly and at the Local government levels.

That is the meaning of " All politics is Local."

^^^^

Atleast, I am not a bigot like you.

Ezeuche, the king of NL Bigots.

^^^

Kinda look ridiculous really.

These are supposed to be smart people

Even in the US where the climate is really cold, no one wears that shyyt.

I love Nigeria. We know how to copy people wella.

namfav:
even using 'good fiday' to spread his anti-northern sentiment, ezeuche you are a disgrace, i spit on you

I agree.

The guy is a piece of trash.

Whta a waste of or/ga/sm

I spit on his mother's kochie kochie

I spit on Ezeuche

I spit on Ezeuche's grave

May Ezeuche be hated everywhere he goes

What a Arrow!

^^^^

Dont mind them.

Thats why Hausas love to makes Suyas from their lifeless body

Buncha reeetards!

dasa:
tinubu does not have the power to deliver souht west to anybody.  Do u know the number of igbos that live in the region? Do you remember how well jonathan campaugned in the region? Do you know the number of yorubas who like jonathan and are not acn members. All this tinubu talk is baseless. He is not as powerful as he is made out to be. If buhari knew, he would have campaigned instead of hoping on a deal with tinubu.

NO!

I thought only Ibos live in the SW, No?

Alj Uche:
why are u talking like a mo.ron here

people are dying and yet you are post trash here

do u know how many yorubas that are dying in the north daily without any documentation

keep decieving yourself

So you admit to killing Yorubas?

How many have you killed? Be honest with me Ok?

When I land in Lagos. please i want to see you. i will personally avenge the deaths of my brothers you killed.

You are dead to me. Let me catch you ok?

I will rap-/e your wives and daughters before your eyes, then kill you afterwards

You piece of Hausa/abpki trash.

seanet02:
All hail the Most Tactical Politician in Nigeria. the Awo of our Time!!

Shattap there.

You are a disgrace to Ogun state

Why compare a bastarddd to Awo?

Why?

Why do that?

Alj Uche:
happy good friday to my Christian brothers and southern brothers

may this friday bring joy and peace to this nation

Nah, may it bring more strife to Ezeuche and his people.

Sai Almajiris!

EzeUche__:
This is very sad. It is getting very upsetting. He ran to the police station, where they should have protected him and the other NYSC members to the mob. [size=18pt]How barbaric can these people be[/size]?

Not anymore Barbaric than Ojukwu of 1967

So it is fine for Ojukwu to kill Ibos, but bad when the same act is done by the Northerners.

What double standard?

tppv:
@YStranger, i can see that you have totally lost your senses. I wonder if you are normal at all.
To show that you're mentally deranged, tell us what you personally did or posted on nairaland about honouring the people that died in Osun. Nothing!!!

And now you can criticise another person for trying to speak out when you did nothing yourself. Doesn't that tell you something? I know guys like you, you do nothing and when reasonable people try to get things going, you get the opportunity to show the emptiness of your brain but i'm not surprised, deformed brain cells in your head are to blame.

If you have nothing good to contribute besides calling the dead names, you should simply shut up or better still go head a pole.

You want me to go head a pole so you can open another senseless thread about me?

Epic Fail.

Now go back to the hole you crawled out from, anuofia you and your dead cousin.
Eejits!

What is good about this Friday

Your people are being killed by the minute, you are here wasting your youth wishing imaginary people Good Friday

Ezeuche, how low can you go?
