why is that only Southerners are guilty of corruption in Nigeria in the eyes of the West. look at Northern Nigeria, if they are so honest how come poverty is ravaging them the most! why is the UK, USA not interested in certified thieves like IBB, Atiku, or is the whole fight against corruption a sham. nearly all the wealth of Nigeria was stolen by Northerners, money they are now using to fund boko haram but the UK and USA are not focusing on the finances of the terrorist group. they are not interested in helping Nigeria fight terrorism which frankly is the most pressing need now, not the extradiction of Alamiesieyha. i feel the UK and USA are shying away from the issue of boko haram, and bringing up flimsy issues to distract us. and they are probably doing this because they see the North as their allies because the Northerners are uneducated and unresourceful and therefore can't develop to challenge them. unlike the Southerners especially the Igbos and Yorubas who they see as too bright for their imperialist tendency.

"his husband"!!!
i just can't stop laughing. I wonder if his wife has a honeypot. white people have taken "freedom and advancement" to a totally crazy level.
so when they have "sex", who provides the 'hole', or do they take turns to hammer each others 'honeypot'?
ROTFLMAO.

that is not a private jet but Arik Air Airbus A340. in the first picture he is sitting in business class judging from the configuration. in the cockpit picture, you can clearly see it is an airbus aircraft judging from the joystick to his left hand (in boeing, you have a center mouth yoke). that aircraft costs in excess of 200million euros per unit. pls use this forum to enlighten Nigerians. we are to naive!

all these years, i have been hearing that yorubas are back stabbers and betrayers. i tried not to believe it. how can such a "progressive" people stoop that low?
but as i matured and and continued to experience Nigeria, i realized that the claims might be true.
otherwise how else can you explain the so called merger of yorubas and hausa fulanis to remove a fellow southerner from power?
look at the profile of the privileged in Nigeria, from the oil industry, to banking to the professions, yorubas have the lion share.
all these years while benefitting immensely from the fraud called Nigeria, yorubas would make the rest of us believe they are on our side. they used their control of the media to paint the hausa fulanis as the villain whereas, we now know who the tyrants and villains are!
any non yoruba southerner who does not see the game plan of the so called merger is naive and that is quite frankly pathetic.
the resources scourged by yorubas come from the Niger Delta. where these resources in yoruba land, well your guess is as good as mine!
yorubas are trachearous.
so all the claims by Chinua Achebe are true after all. well my fellow south south people, a word is enough for the wise. wind don blow fowl yansh don open.

both the commandant and the prodigal son need overdose of discipline. the commandant had no right striking someone no matter what. NYSC camps should have laid down rules, and should not be ran at the discretion of camp commandants. and the prodigal son is an embarrassment to the human race. he is supposed to be a graduate but by his attitude and behaviour, he is an agbero. but Nigerian educational institutions are no loner citadels of learning but breeding ground for hookers and touts who are merely there to pass time. we won't appreciate the problem we have until Togo colonises Nigeria.

The most gullible people in the world

NOVEMBER 6, 2012 BY COSMAS ODOEMENA 4 COMMENTS
A Harvard study said the most gullible people in the world are the Filipinos. The study said, “The causes of this gullibility include the inability to question information and an over-reliance on interpersonal sources.” The study also said, “For Fillipinos, a tsunami warning from the government does less than a mother’s directive to avoid the sea because of syokoys (mermen).”  According to the Mosquito Press that reported it, “The study involved content analyses of over 500,000 historical documents from 300 societies. The documents were then evaluated according to a quantitative metric called the Gump Index.” The study went on, “What’s curious about the Filipino condition is despite a respectable literacy rate, many of its people still believe that condoms cause cancer – or that Appolo Quiboloy, CEO of kingdom of Jesus Christ, The Name Above Every Name, Inc. is the son of God.”

The Harvard Institute of Socio-political Progression may have gone through a rigorous effort in arriving at the Filipinos, but the same can be said of Nigerians. Recently, a 62-year-old male patient was brought to us by his son who was not satisfied with the treatment he was getting in a ‘home’ in Cotonou in Benin Republic where the children had taken him for treatment because the man was “behaving abnormally.” What amazed us was that we were the ones who pointed to the injuries which we discovered on the man’s body. Apparently, the old man had been traumatised to ‘remove’ whatever was ailing him. And it took our pointing these out for the man’s relatives to realise this. The face, the body and even the genitals were all assaulted, for the dementia we found he has.

All too often, Nigerians fall easily to swindlers, especially money doublers. Usually, the customer brings a small amount of money say N10, which they hide under a scrap of cloth. The trick is for a few customers to win small amounts to convince those with big money to play. Those who win the small sums are smart when they take their winning and walk away. But the greedy will stay and stake a bigger sum. The customer is given the cloth with the money and warned not to open it for a given period of time. When the customer opens it, he finds no money but scraps of paper. And when he returns to complain, they lay the blame on him, he must have opened it before the given time. Even now, Nigerians will go for ‘wonder banks’ that promise unreasonable returns.

Aristotle said, “Youth is easily deceived because it is quick to hope.” In Nigeria, the youths are lured easily by politicians for their own selfish purposes. And when the politicians have no need of them they discard them. Looking for work to do, and finding none, the youths become a menace to the society.

At no place than the church is the gullibility of Nigerians most manifest. Nigerians, believing that whatever the pastors tell them is divinely inspired, accept everything in ‘faith’. People have been flagellated to exorcise their purported demons. Men have allowed their pastors sleep with their wives believing that it would be the solution to the couple’s infertility. Nigerians, seeking for any means to get wealthy, go to witchdoctors who are poor themselves. Idolaters carve images and call them their god.

Nigerians have an unrivalled herd mentality. Suicide bombers have continued to bomb their own fellow Nigerians in the dubious belief that they are carrying out a divine injunction. And because of gullibility, there is no shortage of recruits. Without asking questions, without examining facts, Nigerians gang up to mob and burn fellow Nigerians alive; petty thieves, anybody whose voice cannot be heard allowed, with the Aluu Four the latest victims. It has happened many times where Nigerian men, women, children, or even a whole family follows the leader who has gone to vandalise oil pipelines or gone to scoop oil when it has burst, as if they are all in a trance, and getting roasted in the event.

Tribalism is not left out of the consequences of gullibility. Nigerian children grow up hating other tribes because their parents told them that those other tribes are their enemy. When the children grow up, they pass it on to their children and the cycle goes on. It is this deep-seated prejudice that has made Prof. Chinua Achebe’s new Civil War memoir, “There was a country”, an issue of truculence.

Perhaps, the most gullible among Nigerians is the government, particularly to organisations such as the International Monetary Fund and World Bank and some other so-called international lenders. As of today, Nigeria’s debt profile is $44bn, and recently it signed a new deal to borrow $600m from China’s Export-Import Bank, supposedly to build a railway to service Abuja and its environs, a deal said to be in dispute. If our earnings from oil are judiciously used and leprous hands of corruption don’t touch them, we would not need to borrow money to finance any projects. Our creditors sold Structural Adjustment Programme to us, and we took it because anyone in debt is a slave to the one who lends.

Debt is a tool for manipulation by neoliberalists led by these institutions and other institutions known as the “Washington Consensus”. They sold to a gullible Nigerian government the idea of fuel subsidy withdrawal. They preach privatisation but are on hand to make sure local industries are not protected, and do not survive, so that they will have a leeway for their own exports. They are the ones who sold devaluation of currency and high interest rate to our government.

The line usually starts with “Fellow Nigerians…” and the yarn goes on. Only gullible people are taken in by “Shelter for all by the year 2000”; “Food for all by the year…”; “Health for all…” or that by 2020, Nigeria will rank among the 20 biggest economies in the world.

I am not done yet. Gullibility fosters corruption. That is why fuel subsidy thieves can manufacture any figures to get undue payments under the nose of gullible Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation and government officials and still get away with it.

In Nigeria, many still ascribe the cause of stroke to an attack from the ‘enemies’ or from the gods. Such is the way of Nigerians that the very sight of two goats fighting can attract a crowd and keep them standing there and even cause a traffic hold-up, or even an accident. It is in Nigeria where a juju man has more credibility than a professor of science. It is in Nigeria we vote politicians in because they had no shoes growing up.

If we must develop as a nation, government, institutions, individuals should be critical and refrain from swallowing everything hook, line and sinker. As G.K. Chesterton, journalist, novelist, and essayist said, “Do not be so open-minded that your brains fall out”.
