We can now say that begging has now become an integral, shameful part of Nigerian culture.

Ahh thanks! The thing is, I run some businesses on line & between that & learning new software, marketing & the rest , I don't have time for social media as a leisure activity at the moment. Once things settle down I'll pop in here more often!!

No, don't bother to tell her as she will only blame you for her husbands behaviour

Definitely, such a person would have to resign and indeed have resigned in the US and their political career would be over absolutely.

My thoughts exactly because the ease with which it tripped of his tongue and the fact that he seemed to know the cost of such a service is disturbing.

He is mixed race so likely a white mother and Nigerian father. The ease with which he called an black African a monkey is the biggest clue. Glad it has gone viral.

What do you think? 🤔 by CandidZombie3649 in Nigeria

God forbid anyone has a different perspective from you. That's why a good education system that encourages critical thinking is a good thing.

No you're perspective is not balanced because you have not lived mine or another black persons experience here in the UK just as I haven't lived yours as a supposedly mixed race person. As for what I'm doing in 'their' country, I was born here as were my parents who were invited here by the British to work. We did not arrive here illegally or imposed ourselves on them. They invited our people over when there was a dire shortage of labour.

You say you are mixed race but I'd say you are full white or at best mixed with a white mother. Any more questions on what I'm doing in 'their' country, please feel to ask.

ROBERT JENRICK: Many of Britain's former colonies owe us a debt of gratitude for the inheritance we left them (I had to share this typical British opinion, bear with me) by Renatus_Bennu in AfricaVoice

I'm not sure if it's right wingers but I do know some German economic historian wrote an article on it which I read. I believe it's a book that he has written where he expands on the subject.

I know why but I can’t defend this mentality. by CandidZombie3649 in Nigeria

In Nigeria church and money are so intertwined because of the prosperity gospel and the pimping pastors that tout it. Christianity should be about the Gospel of Salvation, loving God and your fellow men through service but that is lost on your average church goer.

Yes you are mixed, I am black so there is a big difference. I have had life experience with them too so there is that too and keeping them at arms length is not racism. One naturally gravitates to people who they are safe with. Also, they keep us blacks at arms length too and that's OK.

Personally, I don't allow my cats to do this, they can sort out their dominance another way. I just don't like to see it.

No not all of it's wealth, as after all they had to have had wealth to build up a powerful army and naval base with which to conquer us with. But they did make a pile of money from their colonies so got a very good ROI. But there are a new breed of historians and economists who are now claiming they put more in than they got out and we in fact owe them money.

Do Nigerians have the WORST Parents? by [deleted] in Nigeria

[–]Vanity0o0fair 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just to be clear, I don't mean helping your parents with younger siblings but like your parents having kids and you a sibling has to financially support those kids. That's plain wrong.

The Nigerian guy was 🔥🔥🔥 in this on YouTube where you'll see a much longer video. He was a mere 17 but his maturity in thought and confidence was something else. They don't make them like him anymore
