Fake Story. That is not Warri. 1) Bikes are not allowed in Warri, especially in that Robinson Plaza part of town 2) Those buildings don't look familiar at all. I've spent over 20 years in Warri! 3) The girl in pucture 1 is different from the girl in picture 2. |
Politics / The African Story by geezzzyy(m): 3:36pm On Jan 22, 2016 |
Source: https://aganbigare.com *Seventy-five percent of the world’s poorest countries are located in Africa. *According to Gallup World, in 2013, the 10 countries with the highest proportion of residents living in extreme poverty were all in sub-Saharan Africa. Extreme poverty is defined as living on $1.25 or less a day. In 2010, 414 million people were living in extreme poverty across sub-Saharan Africa. According to the World Bank, those living on $1.25-a-day accounted for 48.5 percent of the population in that region in 2010. *Approximately one in three people living in sub-Saharan Africa are undernourished. The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations estimated that 239 million people (around 30 percent of the population) in sub-Saharan Africa were hungry in 2010. This is the highest percentage of any region in the world. In addition, the U.N. Millennium Project reported that over 40 percent of all Africans are unable to regularly obtain sufficient food. For a continent blessed with abundance of natural resources, arguably the most blessed continent in the world, the above data is shocking. For years, I have wondered why Africa is so far behind other continents in terms of development and technological know how. I have wondered why we have terrible leaders and irresponsible citizens. So often, as much as I hate to admit it, I am ashamed of being African. If I was white, I would probably have been very racist. I would never have understood how a certain group of people just find it impossible to think and create a civilized society. The west has donated hundreds of billions of dollars in aid to Africa, most of which as been misappropriated by corrupt officials and leaders. This is the African story. Big global organizations have made tonnes of cash, exploiting this black continent. From oil companies like shell to mining companies to leather and coffee companies. They get raw materials from Africa at outrageously cheap prices, with little care about the impact of their processes on our environment; then export them to more developed countries outside Africa where they are processed and exported back to Africa for the few very rich people to purchase and flaunt with. Wicked multinationals! They do not care about us. But on a second thought, why should they? It is not their responsibility to care for us. We are supposed to care for ourselves, we are supposed to set standards and regulate their operations and processes. We are supposed to innovate, manufacture and refine our products here in Africa. But we do not. We do not care about what happens to the rest of the continent as long as we are getting some bribe money. No amount is enough, so we will steal until we run out of room to keep the stolen money. This is the African story. Nigeria is a typical example of the African irony. A country termed the giant of Africa. Blessed with fossil fuels, solid minerals and diverse agricultural products; one would expect Nigeria to be a global power expecially considering the large work force the country posseses. However, for over fifty five years of independence, the country has shuffled one bad leader to the next. Corruption is the national theme, every sector of Government is saddled with corruption. Billions of dollars get missing like car keys. Progress has been slow, laudable milestones are few and far between. This is the African story. Why is this? Are we incapable of thinking? Are we incapable of leading? What happened to our conscience? Has the hot sun damaged some brain cells? Did Christianity come too late to Africa? Or maybe it’s the mosquitoes, they probably affected us some how. I write with a deep sense of grieve. Grieve which has turned into anger. Anger which turned to hope. Hope that a new breed of leaders will arise in Africa. Leaders that are brave and selfless. Hope that Africans will love and care for Africa. Hope that my generation will rewrite the African story. https://aganbigare.com

Well.. I don't agree with Times. Shekau is influential, yes. But Oby and Adichie, I'm not so sure. Influence is the ability to make people do something they'll usually not do on their own. If Oby tells Nigerians for example to boycott road transportation or something similar, nobody will take her seriously. But if Oga Jonah tells his followers the same thing, bus transportation will cease for the given time.. If Jonathan didn't accept defeat, we could have had a taste of how influential he is.. Thank God he did.. The taste for sour.. 1 Like |

Jesus said 'woe to you if all men speak good of you'.. (Paraphrased).. Pastor Chris I love you. I'm not surprised many people are speaking I'll of you.. They don't know you and they don't know God.. It was the same way many Jews spoke I'll of Jesus.. All true servants of God MUST be persecuted... I'm not a Christ embassy member.. I've never attended your Church.. But I got your messages when I was in 200L, my life has never been the same since then.. God has used you to bless me mightily... You are a man sent from God.. Keep doing your great work.. Jesus is Lord!! 1 Like 1 Share |

Politics / Re: President Jonathan's Message Ahead Of Tomorrows Election. by geezzzyy(m): 5:33pm On Apr 10, 2015 |
Sir.. Have you asked yourself why other South Western, Yoruba dominated States are not as developed as Lagos? Here is why: 1) Lagos was previously the capital city of Nigeria.. Hence, the first set of multi national companies had their head quarters in Lagos. And oil revenue in the 70's and 80's was concentrated to the development of Lagos. 2) The Apapa sea port: Hence, the first set of imported products were brought to Lagos.. Note that these early importers where Igbos and southerners like Ibru.. Now that we know that Lagos was not developed solely by the effort of Yorubas.. How dare you come here and insult Igbos and blame them for all the ills in Lagos.. They are not Saints but we have a lot to thank them for.. Stop this tribalism.. LordExecutioner: |

I and my team came up with an idea that has the potential to disrupt a big industry/sector in Nigeria. We've done our market analysis, feasibility studies and all that 'serere'.. The potential is really huge. But the problem is lack of funding.. I don't know why it's difficult for tech startups in Nigeria to access investments.. Sadly, great ideas are dying daily because of this.. If there's any venture capitalist in the house, hit me up.. |
Business / Re: How To Create Wealth As Real Estate Entrepreneur by geezzzyy(m): 7:44pm On Apr 02, 2015 |
I'm really interested. I read sometime ago how many Australian and American entrepreneurs became multi millionaires with no start up capital. They basically got loans from banks and made wise real estate investments. In a few months the value of their properties sky rocketed and they made a killing.. The problem here in Nigeria is that our banks request for double digit interest rates. Doing real estate with bank loans in Nigeria is very risky because the appreciation of your properties might not be able to beat the outrageous double digit interest rate. Moreover, how many banks in Nigeria will give you better loan wen you no get assets like Dangote. But there is potential in this sector sha..Expecially if you are interested in flipping.. We bought a piece of land in Warri in 2012 for 900k. Today people are begging to buy it for 9M. I'm not exaggerating! 1 Like |
Politics / Re: Asari Dokubo Issues A New Threat by geezzzyy(m): 10:35pm On Apr 01, 2015 |
My dad told me if the militants rise up, I should take my sisters to Ghana and start a new life there. He warned me not to join any stupid Niger Deltan that'll want to disturb Buhari's regime. Don't get me wrong, I am pro GEJ.. I believe he has been unduly critized and antagonised by many Nigerians.. However, men like Asari and Tompolo are our real enemies. They are only concerned about their pockets. The Niger Delta has been greatly cheated, I agree. Especially when you consider the environmental impact of the oil spills. But I believe love is the answer, not war. We should unite to rebuild this country. North, South, East and West. We are one. I told my dad that I won't go to Ghana. God bless Nigeria. 7 Likes |

GEJ has tried, he hasn't been perfect but he don try. He can only improve. APC's economic policies are not feasible, even their smart followers know this.

Guys can be vain sha. The same people that insult and criticise girls that bleach are the ones that are scampering for the fair chick.. Truthfully, if I were to chose between the most beautiful girl in the world or the best cook in the world, I'll go for the beautiful chick.. But beauty is just one of the many qualities that make up a perfect bride.. There's attitude, humility, compassion, confidence... That's why I can't chose between these two girls, I gatz date to know more about them.. |
