KHAYGOLD:
From what I just read, I think we should be more concerned about Kenyans comments about Nigerian leaders. The world knows our leaders are corrupt and wicked and depriving us of lot of things, yet we are smiling in suffering. A revolution that will swallow them all is around the corner, believe me.

Paraman:
The Kenyans attacking her post are stupid people. I wander how they can just conclude she's talking about them without any evidence

WizardOfNG:


Don't mind them. Many Nigerians are mentally unhealthy and self-hating individual who think any attack against Nigerians, their government and existence is automatically valid and justified.

This lady made a comment on her own Instagram page and did not mention Kenya or Kenyans. Yer they attacked her over issues ongoing in their nation that has nada to do with Nigerians.

Talk about overstepping boundaries.

ceejay10:
Whether it concerns Kenyans or not, let them give it to her wotowoto. It's only in Nigeria we glory suffering instead holding those responsible accountable. We are not ready for change.

zombieHUNTER:


Nigerians suffer because of tribalism and religious bigotry not because they have patience or resilience

Moreso this was a stupid post from the c list actress, Kenyans have the right to protest bad policies that affects them.

The question is can Nigerians emulate such brave move


Exactly well said bro. I don't blame the likes of Destiny Etiko for waking up and spewing such rubbish, because they are part of the minority elites who benefit from the corrupt state of affairs in Nigeria. I personally I'm livid with the fact that we aren't protesting the current hardship in the country, beginning to look a lot like cowardice suffering and smiling. A Giant thumbs up to the Kenyans for fighting for their rights!!

Bobloco:



It's the truth, no doubt, but I don't know the divide you are on; that post was insensitive and an insult. 

jayce232:
That was a nonsense post she made
How can anyone be glorifying suffering??
Nigerians are not patient, but fearful!
There is a huge difference between being patient & fearful!

Bobloco:
Destiny Etiko was indirectly referring to Kenya in her post, and she deserves to be berated by the Kenyans.
Infact, Destiny also insulted Nigerians in her post

Giving the impression that Nigerians don't hold their elected leaders accountable.

This your comment is better but if you think you can use vulgar display on them, my brother those people will skin you alive raw. Using the word "stupid" can aggravate their anger the more and they will not spare your day with strong words. Their words are not like ours that will throw directly, see those words they are throwing, they are below the belt missile.

JAMO84:
Kenyan youths are desperate to ruin their Country.


Modern African revolution has been nothing but disasters. From Egypt, to Libya, to Algeria, Sudan.....the Countries got worse.


The Kenyan youths doing the revolution have been looting stores and burning properties, if you can't take your eyes off groceries, how do you intend to take your eyes off public funds if you get to power?

omooba969:


What you refer to as doggedness is foolishnesss actually.
Fela Kuti called it 'Suffering & Smiling'.

DevilsEqual:


Hows that post insensitive?
I bet not even you would regards this as insensitive if Kenyans hadnt reacted to it this way and thats to tell u its all about herself and her people

And who asked you not to hold your state Gov accountable for your suffering? You can go to your secretariat tomorrow to share your grief,bro

We( also Kenyans) arent all that matter in this world, the world is bigger than us all and it wont stop just cause some people are mourning

JagabanB:

So what are the positive changes in Kenya so far?
U all don't even know how to make comparisons.
Few weeks ago it was Nigerians praising Kenya and how Ruto is a great leader.

IfnobeGod20:
See what ethnicity, religiosity and sectionalism have caused to our nation that fellow Africans now dragging Nigeria on the floor and lambasting the dossier citizens and the government. They have even labeled the government as illiterate and a broken system.
Now, let me requote three of the comments that really hit us below the belt:

Sellasie’s comment read: “Continue to be patient as you suffer in your motherland while a few people enrich themselves and the rest of you languish in poverty. I’m proud to be Kenyan, and we fight for what is just. Our president has conceded in the fight against the Kenyan Finance Bill. Power belongs to the people.”

Furthermore, Luvv Vanneyy emphasised that Kenyans are educated and deserve fair employment with adequate pay rather than resorting to theft and fraud like Nigerians.

“We’re not dwelling on the theft and fraud that your fellow brothers and sisters are committing here in our country. Your whole generation is flocking to our country; take them and be patient with your broken and uneducated government. Your brothers are busy stealing from older women and men. Speak for yourself”, Vanneyy said.

And some people say they would not changed that we shall continue in this mess, even as they pass it over to their unborn children.

Let me quickly point this to our regular government hailers and the enemies of Nigeria that think they are more patriotic than those talking. helinues, seunmsg, madridguy, Legendhero, Paraman, Freestyle,, Swissmass, Trutharena, yarimo, BondRiv, DevilsEqual, WizardOfNG, Segzy19 are you all there,? Kenyans are talking to us.

dauntless15:
Go hustle, are you handicapped?

Okoroawusa:
Na social media cause am. The world is now such a small place that anything you say and do now is heard and interpreted worldwide at the same time.

However, this incident shows how Nigeria entertainment industry has conquered Africa and the Black World in general to the extent that Nigerian stars are not just Nigerian stars but African stars and what they say or do carries weight. I don't think Nigerians would be concerned with what a Kenyan actress says. Hell! I don't even know any Kenyan actress!

nolamicautos:
If Nigerians truly understood how the world views them, we would be compelled to hold our heads in shame and stay silent. The actions of some Nigerian youths and the government's shortcomings have severely tarnished our global reputation through rising incidents of fraud and other illegal activities. If this trend continues unchecked, it is only a matter of time before external forces take significant actions against us.

membranus:


Did she mentioned Kenya, did she post it on Kenya news-line? No. But because the Kenyans are making mockery of her, and your country and we its citizens out of envy, it suited your hateful agenda, and you therefore rise in support of them.

You that have been writing and posting diatribes against government and tribes here, because the person ruling the country is not from your tribe, what difference has it brought on public perception, except to titillate your ego on this inconsequential Nairaland platform.

Ojuntana:

You know my tribe based on what I write about govt. DeepSight come and see what I was talking about.

Sapasenator:


Who gives a fvuck what Kenyans think about us.

They have no right to come after Etiko.

Mrexcell:




Nigerians are not actually a fearful people but they are not yet matured and civilised to leave behind their tribal and religious differences to unite and fight for the things that will benefit them all corrupt evil nigerian politicians clearly see this weakness and take advantage of it to capture power for themselves, their families and their cronies.

unite and fight for the things that will benefit them all
