Nothing but the plain truth...
It not just Nigeria but many of these countries that their people as black as fuvk.. especially west Africa...
pacespot:


It is the sad truth. Black Africans are not yet civilized, it is better they accept this reality or they get consumed by their thoughts of living in fool paradise. Education does not make one civilized, there is a huge gap between being educated and being civilized. Civilization means the acceptability of a group of humans of being equal to each other and working together to achieve a common destiny. It is a simple definition but with deep underlying meanings to it, most of which are missing in Africa today. if you take western civilization out of Africa, the continent will still be living in stone age by now. Even to copy and replicate other people's successes is a difficult task for Africans sad

And to think that this man was a former Government employee,
These are the kind of people still getting employment opportunities in government,
No wonder they loot all monies and invest abroad since they never get to see hope in their fatherland.

If Rwandans and Ghanaians had this same mentality would they be as developed as they currently are?

Very true. You are on point. I have an uncle who achieved almost nothing for the 45 years while his secondary school classmate became a two term Governor and a serving senator. His professional colleagues who remained are the Big boys and TV owners in the media. So everyone's destiny is not the same. I totally agree with you.

Former Director-General of Bureau of Public Sector Reform, Dr Joe Abah has advised young Nigerans to leave the country if they have an opportunity to do so, IgbereTV reports.

In tweets he shared, Abah recounted seeing a clear path on how he could own a car, buy a house and build a career when he arrived the UK but couldn't see such in Nigeria. He also advised those who want to return to Nigeria, to do so by choice.

He tweeted;

History has us enlightened us that showing off your so called 'european/amerikanah' cv is not directly proportional to contributing one's quota to overall national development. If you wanna jand( or it's equvalent), do it cos of life betterment and preservation of sanity.

That's if Rwanda and Ghana are has corrupt, nepotistic, and shallow has this country. Rwanda has one of the best road network in Africa, while Ghana now has steady supply of electricity. But then what do we have, corrupt leaders who debase us and smile at us. In 1982 when my mom brought me from the village, I can still remember electricity been rationed among neighbouring streets then at alapere ketu side, fast forward to 2021 some areas around my house here still ration electricity. That's good 39 years and yet we can't boost of steady supply of electricity. Your pot may be filled that doesn't mean all pots are not empty. Naija is a failed nation, so live with that and let the good man say it the way he sees it.

All those fools discouraging other Nigerians from migrating abroad are MAD people!

The last time I checked, Nigeria's first lady Aisha Buhari and her children have been out of Nigeria for over 5 months now.

Tinubu's children mostly live abroad and only come back to Nigeria to milk the cow their father kept in the name of Lagos state.


Saraki children all live abroad.


Osinbajo's children are abroad.


Atiku Abubakar's children are abroad.


Almost all Nigerian senators, Governors and Ministers' children are all living abroad including popular Lagos agbero MC Oluomo's children, you can imagine that yet some fools keep telling unemployed, jobless Nigerians in Nigeria not to relocate but wait and die hungry, dejected in Nigeria, na Amadioha joined with Sango go fire all of una for there!




Please dear Nigerian youths, if you are not earning up to 250,000naira monthly income as a single person or 400,000naira as a married person, please if you see any legal opportunity to leave Nigeria to a better nation like Canada, US, UK, Australia, Germany, France, Korea, etc, please leave asap!!!


Nigeria and all West African or black nations can only get worst by the day, it is their destiny.


You can only work for your personal and family breakthrough, it is the saddest truth about black nations.


Which black nation on earth is doing well to give you hope that Nigeria will be better someday None!


Go and check, black nations with less than 5million population and massive crude oil resources are struggling to exist, take Gabon and Equatorial Guinea for example. But take a look at Qatar, Oman, Kuwait, etc that have the same crude oil these small black African nations have, check their level of development and compare.


Black Africans blame European Colonial Masters for their failure to develop their nations, but they forgot that Hong Kong was also colonised by Britain. What about Singapore, Canada that was shared between Britain, France and Belgium


Black Africans are shameless people. It hurts me a lot that I am one of them because I know I was designed to be a pure Caucasian but mistakenly landed in Nigeria angry


How can someone like Buhari be my President and someone like Liar Mohammed be my Minister of Information, how


Just take a look at the crop of individuals representing smart Nigerians as government officials making critical policies that decide the fate and future of over 200million people Are they supposed to even head their various family meetings in a sane nation to talk of becoming federal government officials angry

The people you mentioned have deep dollar pockets overseas. You, you are going there with your nylon bag, unrecognised university degree and Nigerian mentality. If you are older than 30 you are already at a disadvantage. Go if you must! but don’t be shocked if you come back to find that your mates in Naija have gone far in wealth, comfort and achievements more than you.

Go if you must!

But it should be clear to anybody giving birth to children that our only long term option is to build our own country.

Your response is the best post on nairaland ever!

The Buhari presidency is an insult to every Nigerian who honestly sat and wrote WAEC and got at least 5 credits

The Buhari presidency is an indictment of our collective will as a people to be rational and decisive about matters that concerns our nation’s development

The Buhari presidency is an endorsement of incompetence by the Legislative arm of Government for failing to impeach this visionless and directionless religious bigot and ethnic nationalist from continuing to plunder the country’s resources and oversee an unsafe country.

The Buhari presidency is a testament of cowardice of the Nigerian people by failing eject a total misfit from occupying the nations’s highest office while capable and competent individuals are overlooked because it doesn’t suit the “north must complete its tenure” narrative

The Buhari presidency is a mockery of true federalism as the federal character of due representation of all units is non existent in this north dominated administration


Lastly the Buhari presidency is a confirmation that the black man is unable to make smart political decisions and hence incapable of ruling himself.

The reason why South Africa is even developed to the level it is right now is because BLACK RULE did not happen until the 1990’s and when it finally happened with Nelson Mandela, he advised his fellow BLACK South Africans to leave running the economy in the hands of the white people, and yes South Africa did for a long time after Mandela became president and they are enjoying the fruit of their decision today

NIGERIA IS A LOST CAUSE, and those believing in it will LOSE too, either now or someday, it is “cry my beloved country....”
