NLandIsHypocrit:
You went into the minds of millions of people that made it possible for that trend to emerge as number one and discovered their minds? Why don't you look for something more meaningful to believe than that nonsense. Do you think that everyone on Nairaland are your mate that you can use your childish reasoning to confuse?

No I clicked on the hashtag and read the tweets and they were essentially for the most part saying Nigeria your evil has done enough i'm off to greener pastures nowhere on the hashtag were people saying goodbye Nigeria hello Biafra they were literally talking about leaving the country to go abroad

NLandIsHypocrit:
I didn't start it neither do I know who did, but only fool like Oyigboupdate will think that Nigeria's fraudulent Unity can be preserved by numerous blackmails and propagandas against IPOB and ESN and getting paid peanut in return. Naturally Nigeria is gone. Do you know why Wike boldly and confidently opposed FG from collecting VAT in his State and other Governors following suit, and in less than two weeks he said that Nigeria is gone? Wike and most of his college politicians knows better and they know the reality but all their current politics is for their personal repositioning. Only fools who doesn't know they're fools that does not understand that Nigeria is gone.

Just in case you want to be a doubting Thomas, I got some evidence or better still go to Twitter and confirm it yourself.

Nothing to do with Nigeria dissolving they're talking about going abroad, Nigeria will stay as one nation and progress as one nation our problem isn't the country Nigeria but the leaders we vote to lead the country

Nigga, I know enough to know Igbos brought that arsekicking upon THEMSELVES! ENORMOUS hubris and constant provocation: almost like Somalis in fact!

You ALWAYS screech you were innocent and blameless and I was fooled, frankly. Tell me what happened to the Sultan of Sokotos wife? How did she die?
WASN'T it Maj Nzeogwu who pulled the trigger? AND BRAGGED ABOUT IT ON BBC WITH ZERO EFFS?
How did you expect Northerners to react, ESPECIALLY when he'd been born, grown up in the North and was such a fluent Hausa speaker he was even called Kaduna Boy?
He DOESN'T hide his double murder.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PJ2pcLO9HSc/url

Like Jews and Tutsis you Igbo are addicted to self serving myths and fail to acknowledge the chaos you create. Btw, I've seen this mentality IRL with your boys in Nairobi. ACTUALLY, I wish you'd take on FG forces again! Hopefully, Kanu will lead from the front and won't flee like that other hubristic swindler, Ojukwu hypocritically encouraging his followers to fight on

The anti Igbo pogroms began in July a whole half year AFTER their leaders were murdered. OBVIOUSLY it WASN'T an organised holocaust but a spontaneous reaction to EXTREMELY provocative political events.

- militarily a Biafra win was IMPOSSIBLE unless given a massive superiority in arms as they were outnumbered and outgunned as Ojukwu or even a FIRST year cadet SHOULD have known. Look at that map! What the ACTUAL eff was he thinking!?

- speaking of which how COULD he LEAVE his followers fighting on while fleeing to the Ivory Coast?


[url][https://encomium.ng/how-ojukwu-escaped-from-biafra-in-1970/url]

At LEAST a million dead, MAINLY Igbo civilians thanks to a hare brained scheme founded upon TYPICAL hubris and nigga WANT to go DOWN that route AGAIN?! Let them !

Knowing what I KNOW now it's OBVIOUS typical Igbo arrogance was at the bottom of glaring miscalculations.

- the biggest boosters of Biafra were Oyinbos! Look at Frederick Forsyth on scene since 67 he was ACTUALLY embedded with Ojukwu forces for long periods. He's been a long time Anglo Zionist agent so THERE'S no surprise there.


[url][https://www.bbc.com/news/av/entertainment-arts-34101269url]

Just looking at him he's so hilariously JEWISH it's not even funny!? Look at that nose.

Btw, what happened to the other Impostor working for Ojukwu? IIRC he was doing his PR, Goldstein.




https://www.premiumtimesng.com/opinion/107623-there-was-a-country-deconstructing-chinua-achebes-lies-1-by-nnaemeka-meribe.html

The ENTIRE Biafra narrative is BS. Fyi, the indigenes aren't even Igbo but Ibibio. They've said they DON'T want that ISHYT on their land.


https://www.legit.ng/1111913-ibibios-reject-inclusion-biafra-declare-support-nigerias-unity.html

Postscript: Wiki gives total KIA of combatants on both sides as 45-100k. Assume a third are FRN army. Pray tell; how EXACTLY did they die?

You guys keep on showing how dumb you are not all the Igbos supported Biafra like Azikiwe he was against Biafra and even supported the blockade that starved them so you're claim that all Igbos are allegedly provocative is bs even other igbos like Wachuku and Okpara were against Biafra but continue with your foolishness

rvp20182:
You dont know him because you're ignorant and proud of it.
Azikwe is only recognized for his failed effort to free the Igbo from well known slavery of the Northern Nigeria. He is just an Army dude.
Nkrumah started well - but like Nyerere - made way too many mistakes - Ghanian kicked him out and his entire elite.
Nkrumah died in exile - and his country Ghana would suffer his mistake for 30yrs.

Only the smartest of Africa recognise Tom Mboya.

Tom Mboya was TERRIFIC and by 20s was being elected in Lagos to head Africa.

Tom Mboya with his charisma and oratory skills CHOOSE never to take the easy path to populism

He said the truth - the unpopular truth. Tom Mboya is a legend for those that know him.

I first read Mboya biography in 1990s in university and 30yrs I remain as enamored as I was then. Africa need Mboyas.

Of all black leaders - I'd say only former US President Obama Jnr and Tom Mboya makes the white man recognize African can have top brains

Listen to this audio interview. This Pres Obama kind of IQ. This make the white man turn all colour of rainbow - as they dont expect an African to have such a nimble mind.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zadMwZZ2BD8&t=125s

This proves you don't know shit

Azikiwe wasn't a military person he went to university in America with Nkrumah and he fought against Biafra if you're gonna speak at least speak with sense him and Okpara gave the eastern region the fastest growing economic growth rate anywhere in the world for 4 years straight even faster then the Asian tigers so your claim he was trying to escape the north or that he was a military head are senseless and stupid basically nobody knows Mboya because he wasn't that important

Sankara
Meles
Botswana president ( Don't know the name )
Azikiwe

Those are big African names not this Mboya that you keep hyping up

Bola146:
Nigerians need to think twice about all these parties. We need who can deliver us from all these wicked leaders. The strength the youths use in watching BBN naija should be diverted to Nigeria voting

There are already options there's Youth Party Nigeria, YPP and RNP

Anyways the Christian God would liekly wear cloth seeing how he intervenes and acts human same goes for Allah as for the God of us true Africans he isn't human, never talks to humans and doesn't get involved in our affairs so essentially i'd just say he's a ball of eternal knowledge and consciousness that no human will ever see.

E=MC**2..

Mr geoworldedu, In science God is likened to Energy. He was neither created and cannot be destroyed.
Now, does energy wear clothe? Rather it transforms from one form to another.

Answer me. Does energy wear clothe

We are also made of energy and so is everything in existence so does that mean we don't have to wear cloth?

macof:

That's difficult to achieve without offending the North..
So we still end up with the south doing what they want to do for themselves.. Which are all the things you just listed

The north can be offended but the next leader hopefully will be very strong willed and will rule with a hard hammer the reforms will be difficult and offensive at first but we will see the benefit soon after I just pray we can find a leader like that because so far the leaders that have come out in previous elections aren't what we need at all.

Nigeria has the largest population in africa but the trains have the shortest wagon. Most of the train in Nigeria only 10 wagon

Always looking for some reason to talk shit

SUFFERInSMILIIN:
bloody lie I was in lekki last year and Victoria Island the electricity was less than 5 hours in 24 hours. There is no way in ondo state which gets 24 hours electricity. Maybe some parts of Niger state only. Most of Lagos State electricity is very terrible

Yet my aunties,, uncles and dozens of cousins live in Lekki and they got 24/7 power for about two months and then they had to start using generator and how did you travel into Nigeria at the height of COVID?

rvp20182:
Dutch prints (Ankara) are indigenous to Indonesia. Ghanian soldiers taken by dutch to help deal with revolt in Indonesia (East Indies) in 18th centuries brought them as gift to their wives and everyone loved them. Dutch then went into big business in Amsterdam making them...in exchange for Africa gold.

Later as Netherlands moved the ladder - HongKong took over the fabric industry- and for long they were called HongKong prints. Now the Chinese, Bangladesh, Cambodias and Veitnam are shipping tonnes of African prints.

African still cannot make their own dress...not that it's matters.

Africans have been making their own materials for thousands of years from Nigeria whether it be the Indigo dyes of Kano, Akwete Cloth, Ijebu cloth, plant cloths of Igbo Ukwu, Ife cloths or even Aso Ebi your reasoning is foolish and the fact that you believe Africans walked around naked just shows how stupid and brainwashed you really are, and concerning the dutch prints they're not from Indonesia those in Indonesia don't dress in anything similar to what we know as Ankara the true history is that the Dutch saw the cloths we made and brought in their own with more vibrant colours and was much cheaper so more Africans embraced it stop making it seem like trade was one sided we had very good trade tactics and we had products that they wanted so we traded with them it's not like we made nothing whatsoever

Shma2020:
Busiest airports in africa.

There should be a lot more Nigerian airports on that list but as soon as we start growing and moving forward so will our aviation sector grow in the next 10 years i'm seeing Kano and Port Harcourt join the list and I see Lagos climbing to number one or two still behind Joburg unless Kenya also grows massively at the same rate for whatever reason

Shma2020:


I know. But fairness matters. This lists is based on fairness. When all African countries started to participate in Olympic games.

And why should ethiopia and Nigeria be increased ? Don't you think kenya medals should also be increased?

Kenya's number sounds legible but Nigeria and Ethiopia are quite low for Ethiopia i'd expect 30 something and for Nigeria in the 20s reaching 30s

Shma2020:


Okay. It's simple as ABC.

This list is false South Africa should be number one they have 89 olympic medals in total and i;m sure the figures for both Ethiopia and Nigeria are higher then the reported figures but only by a few

SUFFERInSMILIIN:


You do not know people in Nigeria only get 4 hours of electricity every 24 hours

Amount of power given to individuals varies from person to person and from city to city not all places get the same amount of power for example those living in Ndokwa east and Ndoni land get constant 24 hour supply same goes for those living in Bonny Island and parts of Akwa Ibom, rivers and Ondo state also those living in parts of Lekki get constant power

macof:


I get you. But things won't move forward until the North learns to respect the south and that only comes when the south stands its ground.
The south begining to act in its interest is what it has failed to do for decades

Al leader can act in our best interest whilst still developing the nation can they not? Give us federalism, draft a new constitution ban open grazing get rid of Sharia law you don't have to be a bad leader to do all these things do you?

macof:
it would teach the North that nepotism and Ethnic bigotry can be played by everyone too

Sometimes you need to show a mad man that you too can be mad

But that doesn't move us forward does it? Are you seriosuly saying your willing to live in poverty an the nation stay underdeveloped to prove a childish point?

rvp20182:
Sorry the impression of Congolese I have seen in Nairobi and abroad are not of people who will fight for anything - they are just like west africans - pure savages - who just like dancing and making merry. They are the quintessional negro. They value useless things like grooming for an hour.

I dont think such a weak mentality can fight for his freedom - Rwandese and others like Kenya - need to help them.

There's something very very wrong with you so somehow having fun makes you a negro wtf you're exposing yourself to be a racist piece of shit from some white brainwashed American background you need to get help fast cause I will tell you this now Nigerians and Congolese are very hardworking and very smart especially here in the UK and they're hardowrk doesn't deserve to be denigrated by some random sad Kenyan who can't seem to get off of a random Nigerian forum and basically lives their whole life trying to find ways to up their nation and put down other nations around them but I will say this once for you.

Nigeria and Congo are the future of Africa and the black diaspora Kenya isn't that important in the grand scheme of things if you don't believe this go cry in a corner. Nigeria will be the first to truly grow and expand meanwhile Ethiopia and Tanzania will lag behind but Congo will be a late starter to development but I can assure you that Congo will grow very fast one day I don't know when but essentially the only important countries in Black Africa are Nigeria, Congo, Ethiopia and Tanzania the rest will liekly have no actual influence they may be developed but they won't be that big

rvp20182:
They sold plots of land - millions of slaves and tonnes of gold - for a piece of Ankara dress - that now every Ghanian has been brainwashed in their own clothing. Ankara is actually an Indonesian clothing. And it mostly grotesque.

Ankara was made by the Dutch and slaves weren't sold for Ankara, slaves were predominantly sold for guns and gunpowder in terms of getting Ankara that was bought either through gold or through peppers and Ankara is a staple of dress across Africa as in everywhere and stop acting as if Kenya wasn't colonized by the Arabs apart from your Swahili coast there was no massive empire or kingdom with solid infrastructure you literally depended on foreigners for all of your development and progress unlike civilizations in other parts of Africa like Asante, Edo, Oyo,Kongo,Luba, Mapunbugwe, Great Zimbabwe etc.

PROVERBZ:
we should build more cities in the land available in the middle belt places like benue, Nas and plateau. I feel like people settled around the ports in Lagos because of lack of logistics but with the railway it's would befaster and easier to get thing deep inside.
Mehn Lagos is to congested people need to move up.

Cities aren't just built there must be something that attracts people to it i the first place what we don't need are ghost cities like those found all across China we can use existing cities in the middle belt like Lokoja if we want to benefit off of the land but if you want my opinion Abuja should be expanded to include Lokoja as well it should just be a massive city that way many other areas would begin to develop in and around the larger Abuja metropolitan area and the problem of lack of cities would be killed but we have more then enough space to build new cities in Nigeria so there's no reason for why we need to build new cities from scratch in the middle of nowhere what we should be focusing on is improving the infrastructure of existing cities and towns in Nigeria

rvp20182:
Are they sub-humans not to fight for their peace and freedom?

You think they've never fought? Do you even know how many of them have died fighting against oppression? Over 60 million people since the 1800s have died whilst fighting against poverty and oppression if over 60 million people die and a popular civilian leader killed easily do you not think that most people would give up?

rvp20182:
Who was exporting Ghanian Slaves to America? From 15th to 16th - the Portuguese run the Gold Coast - exporting slaves and gold. Seem even Dutch came - colonized Ghana. I bet even the Spanish too.

Definitely the Dutch introduced the famous Ghana Kenke dress - the Dutch Print (aka African print) - take gold/slaves - for a piece of dutch print - that now Ghanian proclaim to be their own.

Ohoo we Ghanian are very proud of our (DUTCH ) print/heritage
[img]https://image.made-in-china.com/43f34j00ZjDaCmLzgPgT/Super-Hollandais-Fabrics-Dutch-Wax-Fabric-Wax-Print-Clothing.webp[/img]

The chiefs sold those plots of land on the coast to the Europeans and if the Europeans ever tried anything they'd be kicked out and replaced by a separate group which is why the Portugese and the Dutch were constantly in rotation in relation to the Gold coast

And the dutch African print are not Kente dress they're what we call Ankara so both of your points were ridicilously wrong but continue with your senseless argument

rvp20182:
The only people destroying Africa reputation are
1) Ghana - literally named Gold COAST since 18th century and yet still very poor.
2) Nigeria exporting millions of barrel of OIL daily and yet still very poor. OIL is a blessing everywhere except in Nigeria.
3) South Africa the Saudi Arabia of Minerals - and yet still very poor - and even poorer with self-rule.
4) DRC with trillions like Nigeria of potential minerals - and yet still very poor

Kenya has since independence been the beacon of hope - an oasis of peace - that has thrived for long.

The home of world class sportmen, Obama, innovations like MPESA and country thriving despite being almost arid and zero minerals.

Kenya continues to proof all is not lost for the black race.

Nobody can berate Ethiopians - they are poor, barren, no minerals but they try their best like Kenya.

Explain to me how Ghana, Nigeria, South Africa and DRC can be poor? How is that even possible?

All the camel riding primitive desert tribes of middle east - used oil - to quickly transform - Africa countries with similar natural resources just stood there. Nigeria hasnt. Ghana cant. South Africa is going down. DRC is a butt of jokes.

You can't use DRC as an example they've suffered from foreign nations since the 1800s they've never experienced true freedom they literally cannot move forward whether they want to or not?

GMB is a tribalist.

I hope any southerner that becomes the president in 2023, will also be as tribalist as GMB.

GMB have set a precedence.

How does that benefit the nation?

Kenya is rwanda biggest investor - it's not just one random big investment - it investment across all sectors. In Sub-Sahara the quickly retreating South Africa is the only competition.

Bro stop lying if we ask Shma2020 he will tell us Nigeria has more regional investment portfolio then Kenya and our influence in business is larger then that of Kenya only countries we're behind are South Africa and Egypt

LikeAking:
Op hw far your journey?

It's difficult tbh but we've made some progress

Shma2020:


Absolutely spot on. But in all those potential, Nigeria has the biggest.

You have numbers and resources. The only thing that you need to fix is leadership. Once you do that, we'll see nigeria triumphing in the top lists.

Exactly and as Nigeria goes up it can bring dozens of other African nations along with it

Out of curiosity why are you the only Kenyan on this forum who actually argues with sense?

Shma2020:


I can't agree more. If only you get a new leader.

Nigeria has potential.

Most countries in Africa have a lot of potential all we need is someone to bring out the potential in these nations

rvp20182:
You cannot do anything without security. People are trying to stay alive from boko haram, kidnappers, islamist and criminals - and all you can think about is giving them jobs and education.

Gov 1st role is security.

Once you fix security - guns are silent - you can deal with South East secessionist problems - those are mostly economic - oil linked mess.

But first sort out the boko harams, fulani herdsmen killing farmers, islamist kidnapping christians, kidnappers and criminals running amok in towns.

You do realize insurgency will revive itself if no progress is made you can defeat them or bomb them as many times as you want but without creating jobs or providing education it will come back to haunt you so stop talking about security this and security that if you don't give jobs then it will come back again

rvp20182:
If somebody serious revise Yemi Kale crap of statistics - you'll be down and out. Your country already has less budget than Kenya. In terms of real clout - Kenya dominate East and soon Central Africa - South Africa dominate Southern Africas - and Nigeria well can only dominate West Africa - coz that is one big zoo.

Yemi Kale himself said that he refused to cook data for the government even when threatened with imprisonment so the chance of his figures beiing cooked are very low as for our budget relax that problem will be solved soon more then 95% of Nigerians don't pay income tax when they start to pay it our budget would likely increase by 200% in less then a year and Kenya isn't as good as you claim stop hyping up your country a Nigerian company bought up your premier technology innovation hub and also set up the first innovation hub in Rwanda if Kenya was so big across all sectors in these areas why would Nigerian companies be able to have such an impact?

rvp20182:
Yes soon it will be Egypt, South Africa and Kenya - Nigeria ought not be there - it should be with mini Zoo Ghana.

Nigeria will always remain on those lists and soon we'll be topping them or we'll be competing with Egypt this next election in 2023 is going to be crazy for Nigeria we've normally been a two party state but it seems that the current political breakdown is about to be shaken up but all I know is whoever is voted into power in Nigeria will be a decent leader because the people are tired.

rvp20182:
You got it wrong. Until nigeria gov restore peace - none of that is possible. Gov should not negotiate on matters peace. You just have to invest in proper internal security to enforce law and order. Then rest will follow.

If you don't kill the root the problem will keep on coming back the root of the problem is lack of education and jobs solve those problems and insecurity dies this is obvious to anybody why do you think there's no insurgency in the south at the same level in the north? Most were educated and had jobs although things are changing now. If we're able to create jobs for all then we'll be able to move forward.
