mrakin: They did a survey the other day and nearly 90% of Egyptians said they'd love Mubarak to return. That things were much better in Egypt under his rule. So much for ''revolution''. 1 Like |

since_1914: Don't mind them. They don't even realise that Nigeria has evolved politically much further than Egypt. Egypt are still at the stage where people are cheering the military into power! Nigerians realized over 20 years ago that the military can never be the solution to any political problem. And some people say ''we should be like the Egyptians''. I really wonder at the IQ of some posters here. Meanwhile... latest: ''Civilians have added a layer of menace to Egypt’s violence in recent days, as so-called popular committees set up checkpoints in neighborhoods, searching cars and occasionally robbing their drivers. On Friday, armed men roamed Cairo freely, their allegiances, to Mr. Morsi or to the military, unclear.'' http://www.nytimes.com/2013/08/18/world/middleeast/standoff-in-cairo-as-security-forces-surround-mosque.html?_r=0 You really want that to be the report on Abuja or Lagos? Be careful what you ask for! 1 Like |

Aligned with Rossiks view here; Nigeria will never descend to such levels. |

Afam4eva:Only Egyptians can figure that out themselves. What I just know is that: I've not heard in History where Violence solved anything. This is how the story will end with Egypt if they continue like this: 1. The world will start stereotyping them as a violent people/nation with no peace. 2. Instability steps in. 3. Foreign investors will run away from their country. 4. Furthermore, their region/country will face great underdevelopment for a very long time and will continue to suffer other repercussions this violence will cause in the long run. 5. Above all, all this their 'revolution' bullsh/it will amount to nothing cos it will be over and nothing will change (it will only worsen). This same story will apply to all the northern states inflicted with boko haram (and even the north at large). Remember they are also 'fighting for a cause', but violently! That's how it has always turned out in history. |

speedyboi:What's happening in Egypt and bokoharam is an apple and orange juxtaposition. They're very different. I'm against this sort of violence but i don't think those protesters thought that things will get this bad when they trooped to the streets to protest. It's the right of every citizen to protest what they feel isn't right. Whatever happens after that is not their doing. Are you advising Nigerians to remain mute like they've been despite all that has been happening in the country. How do you think the Nigerian problem can be solved? |

Afam4eva:Yea right! So boko haram are fighting against what they think 'is right'? This kinda 'citizens can fight for what they don't want' or 'is not right' is what led to Biafran war of the sixties. What is the repercussion of the war on the south East till date (and even Nigeria at large)? Afam4eva: Are you advising Nigerians to remain mute like they've been despite all that has been happening in the country. How do you think the Nigerian problem can be solved?There are a thousand and one other alternatives to change things my bro. For now, I think Nigerians should change their ways first! Their attitudes is more of the what is bringing down the country than anything else. That Government Anthem is what is blinding us. Do you know this thread (https://www.nairaland.com/1401750/nairalander-win-nigeria-centenary-awards#17519790) is one of the attitudes of Nigerian workers that is bringing Nigerian down? Secretaries in the civil service employing those they know (qualified or not) at the detriment of more qualified graduates. Is ordinary secretary part of the leaders? The bitter part of it is that we've employed the unright things as right (even on Nairaland) to the extent that such threads even make frontpage! It's just pathetic. Changing our ways will also enable us to blind our eyes to sentiments and choose right leaders. Even these leaders were once like you and I. They didn't fall from the sky. I am sure Jonathan also attributed his 'Shoelessness' to leaders that were in power then. Now he is leading, what has changed? We need to open our eyes....Leaders are the least of the problems in Nigeria! And until will realize that and change! Not even God from heaven will change Nigeria! (Africa at large sef). I'm sorry to say this but Our cultures also contribute a little to all these things. Cos our Culture for example encourages nepotism a lot! |
