Its amazing how hypocritical Nigerians can be, especially here on Nairaland. You spend half of the day bashing igbos and their Biafra ideology, only to comment racism on George Floyd's issue.! |

bigiyaro: Blacks also kill blacks all over America and there are no protests.... Same for all nations So, when citizens kill each other in Nigeria, it won't attract protests but indeed people have been denouncing this slaughter.. What is unique about Floyd's case was the fact the many Policemen restrained the guy because he was BLACK! Knelt on his neck because he was BLACK for over 9 minutes, killing him as if his words " I can't breathe " had no meaning! This systematic I'll treatment and killing of black leaders and young peoples lives MUST STOP! 1 Like |

EleventhWeirdo:Please, don't be deceived, the Nigerian case is pure racism. It is between Fulani and Shuwa Arabs versus indigenous Blacks Africans. The Hausa and Yoruba slaves playing ostrich by dancing on the rope of the devide are just just uninformed and biggotted by religious sedation, sorry. |

lightpurple: You may need to know that the Police Officer who killed Floyd has gotten a notice of divorce from his wife which shows lack of support for the act. Do you think his family should still be wiped out? |

asanwafo:Seriously people got killed. It has been aired on the news, pictures have been shown and you still talk like this haba? Is it until your family is caught in the webs of a bandit attack that you would understand how bad things are in Nigeria. We are suffering brother, simple. If we protest now olokpas and army will let loose on us with bullets. Look at what happened in Ekiti for example. Abeg please let's be reasonable. |

adontcare: Americans are not shooting and killing the protesters. Nigerians are aware that Nigerian life doesn't matter to the illiterate and frustrated policemen you have on the streets and some protests are surest way to fast untimely death and nothing will happen. So people are being smart and wise. I do not blame them. I, for one will NEVER protest on Nigerian streets. A simple example. During the xenophobic killings, SA police were protecting their people in SA and guiding them to go and kill Nigerians, in Nigeria, your police killed at least 2 people while pretending to protect SA investments in Nigeria. Is that making any sense to you? |

bigiyaro: And it wasn’t a tribal or religious or racist killing. Nigerians are exaggerating tribe and religion when rule of law and security of citizens is the main challenge. |

sexylassie2:No one is stopping Nigerians from protesting too. If your protest is loud enough, the whole world will join you. Just as the world joined in protesting "bring back our girls". However, Nigerians can be very selfish. Aslong as it doesn't involve them or their direct family members. They can't be bothered. They would rather watch BBN or other stupid shows. The politicians are even the worse, comfortably sitting on top of the food chain. sexylassie2:Cool down. There is a high rate of crime within the white community too. The mafias in America are not Black or brown. In addition, just because a few people called you an africa "booty scratcher" does not mean you should term over 13 million people bad. It's like calling all Nigerians scammers and yahoo boys. The common enemy, the police do not care whether you are African, American, Carribean or African. All they see is colour. You don't even need to even commit a crime, being at the wrong place at the wrong time can get you into trouble. Also, other blacks (especially those from Africa since we migrate alot) are all enjoying the freedom people like Malcolm X and ML King, both African-Americans fought for. |

Re: George Floyd's Death: Thousands Join UK Protest by salford1: 3:10pm On Jun 01, 2020 |
PaulH07:I have to give it to the US. Their own racism is sort of a privilege and pride. The EDL (English Defence League) are the biggest racist groups in the UK, but they are minions or chickens compared to the racist groups in America like the KKK or other White power alliances. |
