More and more facts are adding up. Today, May 1, President Uhuru Kenyatta of Kenya announced an 18% increase in minimum wage. Meanwhile, we can see our president, just wonder if we'll ever see a new minimum wage then.

Awww, so sweet! All Naija women can always testify that Naija men are the best in Africa. Other African women too also testify.

But, many Habesha Ethiopian women marry us. I have seen many who married Nigerian men. There is even a thread on that on nairaland.

Do you find Horner men attractive? I doubt if other Black women will, they look like Nigerian fulanis. Usually very slim and light-skinned (like women oops!)

Yea they are more likely to marry Nigerian men than the other way. This is similar with many racist communities where the women are more likely to datw black men. I've seen 2 attractive Horner men the rest are . Yes I would agree Nigerian men are the best and the better looking on average, with Congolese and Senegalese and Massai men coming close but I'm horribly biased . Yea they look like Fulani men so not very appealing.

Lagos changes everyday bro, Lagos is behind yet it has an economy greater than most African countries. dude it's turning to a mega city. New York wasn't built in a day

Oga you too yap about Lagos too much!

TayserMahiri:


Dude are you for real? I thought we were making things better for you here?

Bro really sorry. I was just joking, but there is no joke like this. You guys are helping beyond I can't imagine. I love❤️ all of you guys.

your pics add no value nor do they change any perceptions, you think we cant also post many pics ??

Hate is inborn in you guys like a DNA.. your fellow countrymen asked for it anyway.

There was a shortage of rain once in Jamaica, he had to pay them a visit that day. And as he landed. . . . it rained. So, they worshipped him. Some one told me that the Jamaicans were told by an important person, that a very different person that they will have to worship will come and let it rain. Then both thing matched.

You think Bob Marley died remaining a Rastafarian right?

NOW, I SEE.........

Nigeria is a unitary state hiding under federalism. Too much power and responsibility is given to thr Centeal Government which is why you see so many states that aren't economic viable going to Abuja to beg for money every month. YEs, Lagos ia doing that. My father has told me the improvements with Lagos power supply because of this. Yes, I have been wondering why each state doesn't generate their own electricity
Imagine how far we can go with each state instilling solar power, though I have heard a few states like Enugu doing exactly this.

African leaders are greedy that's why! governors would rather save money in
offshore accounts than develop their states. states like imo, port harcourt, rivers, Kaduna can produce their own power through solar like you said but it's all about greediness.

Baba what is causing ur depression and anxiety? I had clinical depression and anxiety about 4 years ago.

Nowenuse:


I have also seen surveys where Lagos ranks among the best cities in Africa.
Is Lagos the only city in Nigeria?
Did your shamelesness stop Lagos from having among the highest per capital incomes and flow of cash in Africa? Did it stop the city from being the entertainment and financial capital of Africa?

Pls, for the fact that you grew up in Ajegunle or Shomolu in the low income or less priviledged parts of Nigeria is not enough reason for you to transfer your bitter and frustrated life on me or other patriotic Nigerians ok? We are not the cause of your family's poverty.

No Nigerian will ever argue that Nigeria is a perfect country or that we don't have terrible problems. Just that only a very foolish and frustrated Nigerian will watch other Africans from other equally terrible African nations insult Nigeria.

Do you think i would ever argue with an American, Canadian, Malaysian or Japanese who calls my country backward? Hell NO. But not and never other Africans whose countries are no better than mine.

No such surveys exist though that portray Lagos that way. At least, no credible one. If you think Lagos is Africa's "financial capital" you're a cretin.

And I actually DID grow up in Shomolu - in the choicest areas of Gbagada and Ilupeju. And even Maitama in Abuja when my dad was transferred. FIRS treated their directors well before most benefits became monetized. But don't let me stop you projecting your wretchedness on me. Feeling like a big boy on the Internet.

If other Africans insult Nigeria, it's because it deserves to be insulted. Hold your leaders to account and acknowledge your problems. Don't come to the Internet and be beating your bony chest over a country messed up and let down by worthless, hopeless leadership.

fanficgirl:

Why was it neglected?

inadequate funds, lack of proper planning. you know we are a centralized nation right? so the funds were used by government for other commitments. successive mayors have not really done much in raising funds for the upgrade.

Nigerians can clearly see where their shops coming from, We are the ones who gave you the status of Giant, at the end! You don't use that status VERY WELL, Now! I am decided to take that status back to my ''SA''

We give it back to u...............u are the worthy champion, now can u let us learn more about a non-colonized country unlike u?

That was a bad joke. Try to cheer up. There is a lot to live for man. Visit kenya if you can, the wildlife has its way of soothing

I'm very sorry don't give up!! What brought about your depression if I may ask?

Obi1kenobi:


You're frankly the ones that sound like children. I used to brag a lot on the playground about my father and how rich he was when I was a child, but he was just a civil servant. I grew up. Looks like you need to do the same. This thread embarrasses me, because you guys project an utterly false image that even anyone with internet connection who has never visited Nigeria can rebut easily with small research. Lagos consistently ranks as one of the worst cities to live in the world in many surveys and yet, many of you here are peddling falsehoods and posting mediocre pictures that have been beaten hands down by your thread adversaries.

You're telling me to "get a life", yet, you're the one wasting your life on this embarrassing thread. You get sense?

OK , we are beating chest for a useless country, Lagos is d worse place in d world


is that not wat u want us to say?

oya plsss unfollow d thread, nobody cares or asked for ur opinion. wat Eva u say is ur own opinion don't generalize it. clearly u are one of d many frustrated Nigerians lool

Now I see your frustration. You people leaved in a low income area in Lagos but got transfered to Abuja to leave in one of the best areas and after your father retired you went back to where you came from and you don't enjoy all those privileges again.

Bros, you don't have to pour your frustration on the government because your father failed to plan.

Maduawuchukwu:


Lol. They will still beat us hands down? It is your type that will see Eko Atlantic in Lagos and then berate it to no limit and when they see the same thing in another African country they will use it as a metric of how more developed these countries are as compared to us.
A Nigerian will see Skyscrapers all his life in Lagos and will see nothing special in it but once he see just few in Kigali we will not hear word again about how Rwanda is more developed than Nigeria. Iranu!

Eko Atlantic? More hype. For your info, skyscrapers don't interest me (and even if it did, Lagos and Nigeria's skyline and architecture is highly mediocre). I'm more interested in when pipe-borne water from municipal water treatment services would reach most homes. When planned centralized sewage and water treatment is available to the 99% of Nigerians that don't have them. When regulated urban housing following city master plans become reality, rather than free-styling anyhow. When uninterrupted power is available to all. I'm more interested in practical issues that affect everyday urban dwellers.

Just30:
read over your stuff and make the corrections begging for attention . Lagos has just 25% of it population covered when it comes to water supply
the entire Nigeria average is around 34% or so and this is really not good

sometimes, I don't feel like answering some nonsensical assertion but proverbs 26:4&5 made me change my mind.......can u kindly post a link to proof ur claim?i don't wanna say something that'll cos unnecessary stuff.

Obi1kenobi:


I've been to Banana Island and there's nothing special beyond usual Naija overhype. You can post your Banana Island pics, they will still beat you hands down. Nigerians applaud mediocrity a lot. Don't expect me to follow the sheep.

In your village, Gbagada and Ilupeju are low income areas, abi? And yes, my father retired and we moved to our shiny new house in Festac. One of the only places in your useless country with central sewage (which is decaying like everything in Naija) But you can abuse my father from your keyboard. As if some anonymous loser on the Internet changes a thing about his life.

Maybe if more people were frustrated with a worthless government, accountability would actually move things forward in this armpits of the continent.

This is not necessarily about prostitution. How do u know if the lady is a prostitute or not?
She is probably just obsessed with white skin as most kenyans are.

good.....seems this Emperor Menelik is the most powerful Emperor of Ethiopian descent.

about ur topic, the AU headquarter should and will not be moved out of Ethiopia, where do u expect it to be moved to?

is it this shitty Nigeria that can provide 24/7 electricity? or

any north African country that don't consider themselves as African but prefer to be related with Arabs? or

Ghana?....that would be disastrous!!!their citizens wont let us rest with brag or

South Africa?....HELL NO!! they're still battling freedom, I pray they get it very soon or

Kenya?...they already have the UNAN, so no monopoly on that or

who else

it belongs to ETHIOPIA only, being one of the two countries never colonized. or

LIBERIA......no,no,no......that country is still lagging behind in many things

Man,we aint gonna take the AU outta addis-ababa.
she's our source of inspiration.

I believe also the same that it should remain here in my country. The reason I created that topic is to hear the reasons from those who wanted to it to move out.

Yeah I knew yhat but that's so sad. It just needs to be dusted up. BTW do southern Ghanaians ( primarily Ashanti) view Northern Nigerians in a similar manner that Southern Nigerians view Northern Nigerian?

Guy stop complaining if your brain is not functioning.

To understand what overpopulation means, put all the population of Ghana in Accra or put half the population of Kenya in Nairobi and see if the infrastructure will be enough to support that size. Even China with all the wealth and technology build 100,000km of road on a yearly basis and the demand is still increase.

If you still don't understand, go to under populated countries like Namibia and see for yourself. Everything that has advantage also have disadvantage. India, China, Pakistan and even US still don't have everything.

It's funny when people complain but hardly contribute anything to the growth of the country. All people like you do is to carry negative news to feel special but you are nothing my dear but a failure. Only people who have failed in life that always carry negative news.

well when it comes to insults the whole world knows it's Nigerians who insults. twitter is my proof. secondly u got me wrong. I said we know more about Nigeria than u think. we know your positives and negatives but it depends on the moment though. if Nigerians are saying bad things about my country at a point in time, would you expect me to retaliate with good things about your country?

and if u can check the first 100 pages,tell me where a Nigerian bashed Ghana?
