i remember that race i was about 5 and nigeria hadnt won anything or came close to even a 3rd place. then they ladies won bronze, a fantastic relay between the russians provalova and usa torrence in the final leg and ngr 3rd.... then the ngr mens team won silver in the mens relay behind carl lewis of usa and world record
After they won the bronze medal, these three women went back to their computers and sent mass emails to people indicating that they needed help in freeing over 12 million dollars left to a widow in Europe. For helping, they would give each person $23,000.
Hell would be Nigeria, a country rife with corruption, disease, and savages who kill their own people and cant even use their resources wisely. I dont think a country with people with less scruples exists in the world. Nigerians would sell their own mother to make money
Every country has got corruption, maybe on a different scale or covered up but they do. And I'll have you know disease is not much of an issue in Nigeria relative to other developing countries. How many Nigerians have u heard of killing their own people? In the US, there's loads of serial killers, In the UK there's British people who attempt to bomb others. These things dont even happen in Nigeria. You know NOTHING about Nigeria. How many years of independence has Nigeria had? In that time, have
NIgerian Muslims massacred Nigerian Christians not even 10 years ago. African savagery at its best. Hmm, I guess do know something about Nigeria. Workers who kidnap foreigners and try to affect the price of oil, A country so stupid it has killed all of its wild animals that even lion, giraffe and elephant cant even be found there anymore
and yet have not killed one hundredth of how many have been savagely killed by westerners in wars, terrorist attacks and oppression. And unlike eastern, central and Southern Africa, animals like those you mention were never dominant in the west historically. Its just like me accusing England of stupidity because they killed all their camels. If you were smart, you'd know that camels don't thrive in England, just as these animals are not native to West Africa.
Westerners? Um, the African and Asians have reguarly done genocides on their OWN PEOPLE. At least we destroy an enemy. People in Africa are so stupid and backwards that they destroy fellow countryman because of ethnicity and religion. Middle Ages anyone? BACKWARDS CONTINENT. It was better off being COLONIES. Hardly any of those countries is better off being independent. Democracy doenst work for everyone, espeically an undereducated gentry.
Um, and what of the Americans who were oppressed and sometimes killed because of their religion in the aftermath of 9./11? And the British who were bombed in recent years by British muslims? And the many different people in the West who are killed for being from a minority ethnic group? I would say africa was better off pre-colonialism, before your daft ancestors came and forcefully clumped wholly different nations together, dividing some nations as well, and resulting in ethnic group tension.
u a bloody twat. next thing you'll be telling us hitler was an african or that stalin was an african as well. how many of his own country men did stalin kill ?? yeah yeah . you know and i know. millions. hitler was responsible for the death of millions of his own people as well. so fuck u and fuck ur stupid analysis. Your racist dumbass is the one that is backwards. and independence beats colonialism anyday anytime. we dont need ur dummies.
I mean come on, look at your continent: 70 percent of the world's diseases, a lower child survival rate than 40 years ago, a lower standard of living, and mass hunger. Like I said, the continent is good for two things: natural resources and animals. .
Wait you killed all of the animals I forgot, for bush meat...you guys cant even take care of your environment...Common sense animals bring tourists and what do you fucking idiots do? Burn all the trees for charcoal and poach all the animalsMy friend always said they should take out all of the animals, blow up the continent, and then put those precious animals back, Agree Agree Agree!
Zimbabwe killing off whites, u forgot to ask how the whites got the land they inherited from their parents , who killed off blacks to gget it . And they didnt kill off any whites they just took the land back.
And your ignorant self thinks they kidnap foreign oil workers to affect the price of oil. who cares about the freaking price of oil? They are asserting their rights to be heard, even though they could have done so through more peaceful means. They are protesting against the exploitation of their land by foreign oil companies. In the Niger Delta, fishermen can't fish anymore as their water has been polluted with oil leakages, farmers have lost farmland as the soil has been polluted...
Nigerians dont have the LOCAL resources to develop their industry so smarter foreign countries do so. Exploitation? Trust me, if Nigerians ran their own oil industry, I can assure you that the output would be half what it is now. Nigerians, like all Africans, want a piece of the pie. Let them work an honest days work instead of demanding and being violent. And blame themsleves for their problems because their countrymen are CORRUPT who sold themselves to the highest foreign bidder!
If you knew anything, you would know that resources needed to develop industries take time to develop, and what these so-called 'smarter' countries really are is just 'older'. They have had the time to develop these things as opposed to the young nations of Africa. And there are in fact steel plants in Nigeria. FYI, many Nigerians do honest day's work, but when put in a situation where you are oppressed by big headed fools, its in human nature to fight back.
thats why the oil companies are crying that the new nigerian policies work against them as nigeria is taking it own works into its hands. Many nigerian owned companies in oil are doing very well thank u.
common people have to change their roofing multiple times a year as the fumes in the air destroys their homes. the foreign companies keep exploiting the land and giving nothing in return. the people tried protesting peacefully, no one listened, so they took physical action, and whilst their action is wrong, they have reason and are not just doing to affect price. do some research before you talk nonsense again please.
we done things on half as terrible as scale as has gone on in the US? Have we oppressed millions through slavery, segregation or such means? Have we gone around imposing our own systems, which it took us centuries to develop, on other countries that are barely decades old? Have we got media that celebrate only the shortcomings in other nations, so we feel better about ourselves? You can say whatever you want to say, wallow in ignorance all you want, but Nigerians are happy people who will keep
Yeah, lets, unfortunately they wouldn't win, because what shallow minds like yours will always find it difficult to take in is that there are many Westerners like them who have moved to Nigeria, they are one of many and thus not worthy of a Nobel prize.
on living their lives, learning and growing stronger day by day. I, unlike you, have actually been to Nigeria as well as your country and various others around the world. From experience, it is anything but hell, so it is alright for you to say nonsense, after all, you don't really know anything about Nigeria. Keep propagating wrong views about the country, it does not change anything about the country because frankly no Nigerian cares about u or what you think, and if u even care at all. peace.
wow, it must really suck for you having no argument. pity, you can keep repeating your nonsense, i won't bother replying after this coz its your own piece of shit, and it doesn't change the fact that there are millions of Nigeria living in their mansions, driving cars that you will NEVER be able to afford, and living great lives in their country with honest money they made by working hard. There's no denying there are spammers, but there's crime ALL OVER the world...
I seriously doubt that most of those Nigerians got that money in an honest way. I drive a Mercedes, so before you say I cant afford things, do YOUR research.
No, go and get your eyesight checked and read again, i said millions, not most. There are over 150 million Nigerians. Millions of those are stinkingly rich, and many of those millions got their money through honest means. Look up Dangote, Otedola, both on the world's richest list. And millions of others who aren't- research Babalakin, Ovia, etc. These people don't drive mercedes, lol. Any Tom, Dick and Harry in Nigeria drives mercedes. They ARE DRIVEN in hummers, have private jets and yachts.
...and that does not make everyone in the world a criminal. so please, try using common sense next time before you make such ignorant statements, because you sound just like an illiterate ten year old.
Its Naija! Yes o, e no dey easy at all!! Congrats my sisters! Mary Onyali and co...Thanks for putting us on the 1st map with our 1st ever Olympic medal!
