Nigeria: A Failed Colonial Experiment - part 1 of 3 District 9

[JUNIOR4YOU]

THE HOT REASON RIGHT NOW, TO BRACE OUR LAND AND PULL BACK FROM NIGERIA IS BOKO-HARAM, PERIOD!

[Aysha222]

Instead of making useless videos like this, its high time we STAND TOGETHER to create a positive image, help our people that are suffering and also prove our Colonizers wrong. Because ultimately this is what the British intended for us to do which is to hate each other. And you Mr Okoroman are just proving them right, what a shame.

[Aysha222]

I don't blame my people for what they're doing, even thoough I know its not right. But when you are constantly bombarded with negative things and people like YOU putting my people down, its inevitable that they'll live up to the stereotype i.e. Self fulfilling prophecy.

[Aysha222]

Its soooo easy to critize and slander Nigeria and its people but the question is WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO HELP THE SITUATION?!

[Aysha222]

I have to say this is absolutley disgusting. How dare you say that Nigeria is a satanic country when it is indeed the Colonizers that are to blame. @whiteisdevil you cannot say you are a "PROUD NIGERIAN" after you have just insulted of the main groups that make Nigeria what it is today, Igbo people.

[whiteisdevil]

YOUR FAMILY IS A FAILED FAMILY

[whiteisdevil]

YOU ARE JOBLESS

[whiteisdevil]

you are clueless,igbos are the worst tribe in th world,eastern govenors are worst than animals,take ur igbotic accen elsewhere. AM PROUD NIGERIAN

[JUNIOR4YOU]

@whiteisdevil NO WONDER YOUR NAME IS DEVIL!

[TheBanditghettoninja]

The reason Nigeria is so fucked up is because it's borders is a European invention. One thing the Europeans learned was how to divide and conquer. Nigeria used to consist of multiple nations which whom hated each other.Next thing you know they are in the same country, fighting each other trying to dominate the entire country.

[moondear2000]

i have not met an uncrocked nigerian yet!!!!,..someone prove me wrong???

[aaaom1]

Africans blaming other Africans..... Why? All African countries are responsible for its own history. Why blame Nigeria for "African" failures? Even Ghana has its problems. The US, a country every one strives to match, benefitted from slavery. Who were provided by other "Africans". All the countries are guilty of this. Who is to blame for that?

[Biafrans7]

experiment0003 never produces any countering facts to the broadcasts he hears which are full of them. All he produces is a persuasion to ignore the incalculable and unimaginable exploitation, oppression and genocide. What a pathetic individual that is typical of a nigerian.

[olasenialexander]

I don't who the hell you are but I must tell you that YOU ARE JUST RACIST.

[maaruz1979]

i'm glad i'm not the only one who thinks what happened in rwanda was satanic...africans really need to check themselves...some of the stuff going on is indeed devil-worship

[thesensualinc]

I think u are a nutter, and I think you are also incredibly stupid. Please stop saying Nigeria is evil, I love my country. IF YOU ARE SO DISSATISFIED WITH IT PLS GO!! Stop making noise about it just go *sigh* ur a hot mess without any logic. You have igbo governors in 5 states of Nigeria, I dont see them doing any better than any other part of Nigeria.

[Biafrans7]

@thesensualinc The broadcaster did not cause these problems for nigeria. It is actually people with your type of mentality that has rejected the truth and prefer to advance their wicked agenda with lies and hatred. Those who are not for justice are for injustice.

[experiment0003]

@Biafrans7 oh shut up... you're the only victims in Nigeria... all other ethnicity gang up on Igbos? Give me a break!

Self righteous prick... everybody is wrong, and you're right!

[Okoroman]

No experiment0003, Biafrans7 is correct to react the way he is doing in defense of his people. Precisely! Biafrans are suggesting that Nigerians were murdering them just like the jews made the case that the Nazi ganged up on them, and he has a historical account of this. Biafrans know that living with Nigerians in damned Nigeria is not good for them.

Actually why are you complaining? Are you suggesting that you(the Nigerian Nazis) are the ones who are right and that the Biafrans are wrong?

[experiment0003]

@Okoroman I disagree with your terminology... but it's expected from "Okoroman" and "Biafrans"... as part of your propaganda.

..now even though the Igbos suffered great numbers of casualties, other ethnicity suffered greatly too... and I don't feel like one human life is more important that the other.

Listen! Injustice in Nigeria doesn't discriminate... and others have had their share of HRVs too.. not saying its right, but as MLK put it, "injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere."

[Okoroman]

Would you expect the Jew to see go the Nazi as right?

[ADAJ3]

I bet this guy is nigerian; Yeah we have problems but complaining about it instead of trying to fix some problems is not helping. If we were that bad everyone would have left and there wld not be 150 million ppl there. The love of money over the love of helping others is the ultimate downfall of Nigeria.

[Biafrans7]

@ADAJ3 and brokenmask. Bloody hateful, clueless and malicious idiots like you are well known. The Igbo you unjustly hate yet do not want to leave does not need Nigeria's presidency but their human rights including that of Self-determination and so also are other ethnicities of the lower Niger who have made it categorically clear. Nigeria's leadership has ever been motivated and steered by the Nigerian-gripping vile and malignant factors of Ethnicity and Religion. Enough of your idiocy. Shut up!

[ADAJ3]

@Biafrans7 How am I bloody, hateful, clueless or malicious. My parents are from a minor tribe and I have been there like twice. I didn't say anything wrong so chill out.

[Biafrans7]

@ADAJ3 "We" have problems but it seems being the most corrupt country in the world, conduct of the world's worst election ever, stealing $400 billion dollars since 1960, rigging all elections and census since 1960, genocide against innocent people and relentless religious violence costing lives and in all national violence that have cost 4 million lives in 64 years is a problem which to you no-one attempted to fix. Know the problems first because even after hearing them, you still don't.

[ADAJ3]

@Biafrans7 Ok well I live in U.S. and I believe you do to and we have not have a legit president since J.F.K. The U.S. government is really corrupt but the gov is full of the greatest liars on planet earth.

[Biafrans7]

@ADAJ3 Don't be a twat. Your contrasting comparison shows bad logic. Peoples' rights are respected in the United States. You saw US corruption but not its development in your warped comparison. What is it that I have mentioned about nigeria that is an exact historical parallel in the US? Do you believe that the oppressed ethnic nationalities in Nigeria have the right of Self-determination? Please answer.

[ADAJ3]

@Biafrans7 ill ur like 50. nvrmind u win. don't comment back please

[Biafrans7]

@ADAJ3 Only 50? Am much more than that. At a hundred years one can still rightfully communicate with the young. So my dear young one, do not scamper away from reasoning. It is the way to knowledge.

[brokenmask]

Actually it is a shame on the protagonist of this nonsensical rhetoric. A angry Okoroman; now you should be aware of the reason why an Igbo would never be allowed to govern Nigeria! However, I still can't figure out the reasons why all Nigerians have been lumped together in this video as evil. You are entitle to your opinion but not to your own facts!!! Instead of taking issues at government officials, you have directed all your blames towards the people of Nigeria. Shame on you, Okoroman!!!!

[esm6]

oh shit! giant satanic trees!

[DLcKxFTR]

nigga....nigga....nigguhh



[odijie12]

This guy is funny . . . you are just complaining . . why not play your part instead of nagging. We all know Nigeria has problems, stop fooling yourself

[Biafrans7]

@odijie12 Those who are queit in the face of evil are the fools. The wicked must be exposed and justice must be done.

[Biafrans7]

"A report that past Nigerian leaders stole more than $89.5 billion from the national purse over a period of 38 years, from 1970 through 2008 by Global Financial Intergrity also stated that Nigeria lost more money through illegal financial outflows than any country in the world during the period." --- Daily Independent Newspapers. Wednesday April 14, 2010.

[ratbaby4000]

if the oil states dont join biafra, the ibo pple wuld stop pushing for biafra.lol

[Biafrans7]

@ratbaby. For those whom this uninformed or outright malicious person may deceive, Biafra-Igbo (Ibo) States possess OIL .

[ratbaby4000]

e.g?

[Biafrans7]

@ratbaby4000, eg do your research before making untrue comments.

[moscolah]

ratbaby your mind is full of hate on igbos it will damage you and you will be like a helpless rat igbos are industrous and couple with oil and gas in aba imo and anambra in anambra even some town gas is even coming out from the ground cus is too much you can smell it so rat am not surpirise that nigeria dont want you to no about igbos contribution in your failed economy,nigeria is not a good name in any aspect both international level so biafra is what we no, and must be recognised soon in UN.

[ratbaby4000]

i dnt hate ibos, infact ive gt loads of ibo friends, but u guys fail to recognise dat nigeria can easily work if the corrupt bastards in power are wiped out, and corruption is present in every tribe, even if biafra materialises it will still be wayed down by corruption.

[fikty]

The Nigeian situation is over exaggerated. I guess the video composer is a sympathizer of biafra.

[Biafrans7]

@fikty Don't you think your existence is over exaggerated?

[Biafrans7]

Nigerian leaders, for the most part, have been terrorist genocidists since 1960. Any wonder that colonial patch has spelt misery for all who have anything to do with it. Nigeria simply battles on an existential level as a nation. It is unworkable and can only deteriorate to its doom.

[Krazytravis]

Nice bro check out "Macho man randy savage vs. Classifieds" Hella funny yo.

[steppydanl]

This is profoundly puerile and stupid, coming from the mouth of a grown man.

[ratbaby4000]

word! u spoke my mind

Nigeria: Police kill at will

9 December 2009

Press release

Amnesty International exposed the shocking level of unlawful police killings in Nigeria in a new report released on Wednesday.

"The Nigerian police are responsible for hundreds of unlawful killings every year," said Erwin van der Borght, Director of Amnesty International's Africa Programme.

"Police don't only kill people by shooting them; they also torture them to death, often while they are in detention."

[Okoroman]

"The majority of the cases go un-investigated and the police officers responsible go unpunished. The families of the victims usually get no justice or redress. Most never even find out what happened to their loved ones."

Police frequently claim that the victims of shootings were 'armed robbers' killed in 'shoot-outs' with the police or while trying to escape custody. These claims are often highly implausible.

[Okoroman]

Fifteen-year-old Emmanuel Egbo was killed by a police officer in Enugu in September 2008. According to witnesses, he was playing with other children in front of his uncle's house when three police officers came up to them. One officer pulled out a gun and shot the boy, claiming he was an armed robber. He was unarmed. In August 2009, his family discovered his body had disappeared from the mortuary. As of November 2009, the body is still missing.

[Okoroman]

Amnesty International said that some police officers see the killings of 'armed robbers' in detention as acceptable practice.

[olasenialexander]

@Okoroman I NOW THINK YOU ARE JUST A SHEER SHIT.

[Biafrans7]

@olasenialexander Shut Up and counter what he is saying with facts. Spitting useless slurs like agbero does not make a point or convince anybody.

[Biafrans7]

"The Igbo(Biafra) break with Nigeria occurred catastrophically on 29 May 1966. On this day, leaders of the Hausa-Fulani north region(feudal overlords, muslim clergy, military, police, businesspeople, academia, civic servants, other public officials and patrons), who were long opposed to the liberation of Nigeria...launched waves of premeditated genocidal attacks on Igbo migrants populations resident in the north. These attacks were later expanded to Igboland.." -- Herbert Ekwe-ekwe.

[shakesthejoker]

People of the world, hear the cheap cry of a man fighting a lost battle... As if Igbos were sitting ducks, it was a CIVIL WAR and we NIGERIANS have outgrown that. If you want compensation, make your plea to God. He's the only one who can vindicate rather, than biting the fingers that feeds you. Bliss!

[mrabdullah71]

so sad but soo true! insha'Allah it will be healed

[joankim123]

extremely bad video.

"Nigeria is uniquely evil"(!)

Wtf is that!? Nigeria is a nice country, with many nice people, even though a minority is in war and very many is poor. I think people who not try to make life better for africans (including nigerians) is uniqely evil!

[TakehikoKun]

wow. wtf are you actually talking about? did you listen to it?

[empius7]

You don't expect a country with more than 250 different ethnic groups to live in harmony when siblings are killing each other, neighbors fighting and murdering one another, villages against villages. Rather than feeling bitter and doing nothing, I'd encourage you all to join the One Million Youths for Change and The Light Up Nigeria Movement. Look them up on facebook. Remember, the African Americans went through difficult times as you all know. They didn't use violence to achieve their goals.

[TakehikoKun]

No, they didn't use violence..

And they continue to get fucked over..

[Putumintheyplace]

Toronto has a lot of fraudulent ass Nigerians.. always tryna con someone.. stealing from there own ppl and shit/.. im sick of that shit.

[Biafrans7]

In 49 years, Nigeria has been run by the Hausa-fulani fundamentalist Islamic pogromists and jihadist genocidists along with their serving Yoruba Oligarchs. In 49-yeras all elections and census are rigged, $500 billion dollars squandered and Sovereign National Conference refused. Astute former finance minister, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala paid $30billion external debt squandered by Hausa-fulani and yoruba oligarchs and left $67 billion external reserve, yet no infrasctructures, employment, security etc

[Tampinu]

My Nigerian history books tell me that Nnamdi Azikiwe (Great ZIK of Africa) is not only a Nigerian but one of the foremost minds in the creation of the Nigerian entity. Now whether what we currently have as 'Nigeria' with the alleged shortchanging of the Igbos is in line with what Zik had in mind is, of course, open to debate. So please be careful when you insult 'us' Nigerians because ZIK is more of a Nigerian than I am. If you disrespect Nigeria you run down ZIK, learn that!

[Biafrans7]

Tampinu, Biafra already exists as a nation under occupation. Biafrans stand on their right of Self-Determination to demand, unequivocally, the evacuation of Nigeria's government from Biafraland.

[askforjoe]

So sad i'm ashamed to call myself a nigerian

[Biafrans7]

"By 30 May 1967, when Biafra seceded, not only was Nigeria neither happy nor harmonious, but it had for five previous years stumbled from crisis to crisis, and had three times already come to the verge of disintegration. In each case, although the immediate spark had been political, the fundamental cause had been the tribal hostility embedded in this enormous and artificial nation." ----- Frederick Forsyth in "The Biafra Story" page 13. Published 1969.

[waragainstnaijagovt]

there countries bigger than Nigeria but they still get along why cant we the ans is poverty , everyman for himself we need to think on how to impact our world which is our regional origin we are all from the same place but different but the same as african we should build not destroy help your children help our country . biafra will not be the ans but another fresh problem .

[AgainstScienceCom]

This fela is so uneducated...or he is just plain lying.

Search NewsRescue website for information on Leopold for instance and what led to Congo and other African genocidal behaviors= colonialism

[CrazyShakaZulu]

What he says is all true. I visited Nigeria last year.

[OftheSoil]

It looks like there's trouble in Nigeria, things can't go on with the way they are now, especially as the Niger Delta's leaders have come to their senses and have seen their true friends and foe's.

[marantzo69]

what a shame! i left nigeria about ten years ago, and only went back last year for a month. i bet you that all the time i was there, we never had electricity which is ofcos the most important thing one could need for various importance. infact nigeria from my experience has gotten worse for all its worth. the people need help down there but the polititiance are just not bothered. this means nigerians has no sence of legacy.
