Oseni Rufai again?

Is he never tired of controversy, this guy?

ambale:


But hunger and inflation can be compared abi?

Hypocrites

If you are hungry, go on ChatGPT and ask it for a low-startup cost business you can start in your area.

If you have money to browse internet and Nairaland, you have no excuse to be hungry.

idealogical:
This man is really a first grade nuisance

You abuse and criticize politicians and even the president and nothing happened to you, you criticize the governor of your state everyday and nothing happens to you, countless Nigerians abuse and insults the president everyday and even calling him a drug dealer and not jng happens.

Your brother spent 4 years in office abusing and criticizing Buhari everyday but was never arrested.

So, what is this overfed failed content creator talking about?

Exactly. in ''horrible, terrible dictatorial Africa'' these same people come in here and call the president of the country all sorts of unprintable names including a 'drug lord', 'druggie', 'thief', 'looter', everything.

On a daily basis.

And nothing happens to them.

Make that make sense.

Meanwhile, westerners will see that Fayose video and think ''Damn.. It must be really dangerous to criticise a president in Africa. What a horrible place of backward, uncivilised people.''.

This is how Nigerians crucify themselves with their own mouths.

theredaddy:



You still havent answer the question

What 'question'?

If Tinubu or say the President of Ghana or Kenya appointed a man who was the richest man in the world, worth 400 billion dollars, and a quarrel broke out between them, what do you think would happen?

They would kill him?

Jail him?

What exactly are you saying?

The OP said it was just between Trump and ''a businessman''.

No. It was between Trump and the world's richest man worth 400 billion dollars. Big difference.

If such a person had a problem with an African leader in similar circumstances, Nothing would have happened to him, just as Nothing happened to Musk after he quarrelled with Trump in America.

I couldn’t stand that Okoro voice claiming Tinubu spent “150 billion dollars on private jet”.

All these ethnic-driven dropouts sef.

Reference:
We operate feudal societies in Africa. That's why. And tried endlessly to mix that oil with water to no avail.

African leaders are weighed down by personality issues. They want to be called democratic yet want to operate as maxim leaders.

The monarchies in the west and east have remained strong and relevant yet they stay well within their boundaries and leave governance to the operators of democracy.

Here a commoner is elected councillor and he instantly becomes pig headed.

So Trump that’s been disobeying court orders and firing people from their jobs because of their racial origin, bundling brown skinned people off the streets to El Salvadorian prisons without due process is….what? An African?

Are you aware that Trump is a criminal convict on 34 felony counts who did not serve his term in prison and is instead their President?

Tinubu who has never been charged, much less convicted of a single crime, you insult and call a criminal, while elevating an actual convict in America as someone “inferior Africans” should emulate?

You people are just lost.

SmartPolician:
The reason is that in the west, leaders come to power to make positive impact, create jobs and make things better than they met it. There's a limit to the action Trump can take against Musk because he knows that Musk is the pride of America for being an extremely innovative billionaire who created tens of thousands of jobs and wealth in America and worldwide.

On the other hand, African leaders come to power to massage their egos and loot with reckless abandon. They don't care whether they create jobs or not. If you challenge them, they will introduce one policy that will see you return to your village broke or use security operatives to deal with you. That's why White South Africans argued, in the past, that black people have no business being in power.

All the earliest images of your Jesus, Mary and the apostles were of pitch black people.

Go on Google and type “black madonna” to see hundreds of those images from European churches.

So I suppose God is also “inferior” to oyinbo?

stuffs2002:
Isaac Fayose is just another low self esteemed Nigerian trying to demarked Nigeria at every given opportunity.

AS a Nigerian who have lived outside Nigeria, I can tell you that Nigerians are a lot freer than a lot of those countries.

Honestly, Nigerians have a major issue with racial complex.

I have never seen a Black Country where people are like this.

They just elevate whites to godlike beings while placing themselves at the very bottom.

It’s a scandal.

I have never seen or heard anyone praise the chaotic developments in the US as something “good” to be aspired to, except in Nigeria, this country of self loathers.

It’s tragic.

theredaddy:


call it disparage but the truth no get two name

What truth?

Your only problem is self loathing and oyinbo worship.

A crisis in the increasingly lawless and chaotic US istration led by narcissistic elements like Trump and Musk showing dysfunction at the very peak of authority is somehow twisted by you people to be a Good Thing which “Africans” are incapable of.

I mean, I have no words.

kcbaba007:


Bunch of jokers...

Looking for another way to loot money, knowing fully well that it will not solve anything....

Meanwhile the sponsors of terrorism in Nigeria are in the government and in the military, and other security aparatus

When they arrest you now to point out the 'sponsors of terrorism' in the government, you will start squealing like a rabbit for your 'human rights'.

RaptorX:
Fence that can be easily breached or will you put a soldier or policeman every few meters to guard the fence? What a dumb idea, Nigeria cannot even afford it so this guy is just talking rubbish. Even America dare not fence their entire border, just sections of it.

Walls have been built forever, from Israel in Gaza which you , to the Great Wall of China, and the recent walls by Pakistan and other countries trying to protect themselves from foreign invaders and terrorists.

Nigeria seeks to do the same and you are full of bile because there is no love for this country in your heart.

So there's the door.

Sweet tune
I'm sure many guys must have kept away from her after she sang such song.
Who wants embarrassment from babe because of nyash?

WHO WILL EDUCATE YOU AFRICANS OUT OF THIS COLONIAL-INDUCED BRAINWASHING AND SELF HATRED?

How can the same race of men and women, GOD'S FIRST CREATED PEOPLE, who gave the world the PYRAMIDS OF SUDAN AND EGYPT, THE PHARAOHS, MATHEMATICS, WRITING, ARCHITECTURE, IRON SMELTING, MINING OF MINERALS, LAW, PHILOSOPHY, RELIGION, THE SCIENCES AND THE ARTS THOUSANDS OF YEARS BEFORE WHITE PEOPLE EXISTED ON THIS EARTH, BE SO BRAINWASHED AND CONDITIONED TODAY THAT THEY REJECT THEIR VERY SKIN COLOUR?

THIS IS JUST TRAGIC AND SHAMEFUL.

AND GUESS which country is the WORST in this bleaching madness?

Do you need to guess?

Your useless 'GIANT' nation of white worshiping slaves?

How disgusting.

To the point that even the British who brainwashed you are reporting the news with alarm?

You Africans, especially NIGERIANS, are a total embarrassment.

Sometimes I wish we had a powerful MILITARY DICTATORSHIP that will BAN all these wretched bleaching creams and JAIL anybody caught with such things, after several lashes of koboko.

And also BAN this nasty Brazilian dog hair these women wear.

And BAN THE NASTY ENGLISH WIGS OUR STUPID LAWYERS AND JUDGES WEAR WITH NO SHAME.

Until you Africans cure your colonial inferiority complex and self hatred, you would get NOWHERE in this world. And you will continue to be the objects of ridicule and shame all over the world. Because the world can never EVER value you if you don't value yourselves.

'I scarred my six children by using skin-lightening creams'

BBC News, Kano

24 March 2025, 00:28 GMT

A mother in northern Nigeria is visibly upset as she clutches her two-year-old child, who has burns and discoloured skin on his face and legs.

The 32-year-old used skin-whitening products on all six of her children, under pressure from her family, with results that she now deeply regrets.

Fatima, whose name has been changed to protect her family's identity, says one of her daughters covers her face whenever she goes out in order to hide her burns.




An animal mixing bleaching creams in the market




Another was left with darker skin than before - with a pale circle around her eyes, while a third has whitish scars on her lips and knees.

Her toddler still has weeping wounds - his skin is taking a long time to heal.

"My sister gave birth to light-skinned children but my children are darker skinned. I noticed that my mother favours my sister's children over mine due to their skin tone and it hurt my feelings a lot," Fatima says.

She says she used creams she bought at her local supermarket in the city of Kano, without a doctor's prescription.
At first it seemed to work. The grandmother warmed towards Fatima's children, who were aged between two and 16 at the time.

But then the burns and scars appeared.

Skin-whitening or lightening, also known as bleaching in Nigeria, is used in different parts of the world for cosmetic reasons, though these often have deep cultural roots.

Women in Nigeria use skin-whitening products more than in any other African country - 77% use them regularly, according to the UN World Health Organization (WHO).

In Congo-Brazzaville the figure is 66%, in Senegal 50% and in Ghana 39%.

The creams may contain corticosteroids or hydroquinone, which can be harmful if used in high quantities, and in many countries are only obtainable with a doctor's prescription.

Other ingredients sometimes used are the poisonous metal, mercury, and kojic acid - a by-product from the manufacture of the Japanese alcoholic drink, sake.

Dermatitis, acne and skin discolouration are possible consequences, but also inflammatory disorders, mercury poisoning and kidney damage.

The skin may become thinner, with the result that wounds take longer to heal, and are more likely to become infected, the WHO says.

''I visited a popular market in Kano, where people who call themselves "mixologists" create skin-whitening creams from scratch.

The market has a whole row of shops where thousands of these creams are sold.

Some pre-mixed varieties are arranged on shelves, but customers can also select raw ingredients and ask for the cream to be mixed in front of them.

I noticed that many bleaching creams, with labels saying they were for babies, contained regulated substances.

Other sellers itted using regulated ingredients such as kojic acid, hydroquinone and a powerful antioxidant, glutathione, which may cause rashes and other side-effects.

I also witnessed teenage girls buying bleaching creams for themselves and in bulk so that they could sell them to their peers....''

Take Easy Bro.. I have learnt a lot from the corrections u gave to that fellow...

But I just wonder how Blacks did fall n still remained on the floor without trying to rise

Another IGNORANT comment.

Stop getting your news about blacks from CNN and all these stupid western outlets.

Today, 12 of the 20 fastest growing economies on earth are in AFRICA and the CARIBBEAN.

Africa is projected to become the “next China” in the decades ahead.

When you have money, instead of rushing to London or Dubai, TRAVEL TO JAMAICA. OR TANZANIA. OR RWANDA. OR KENYA. OR ETHIOPIA.. OR ANGOLA. OR IVORY COAST. OR BOTSWANA.

You will be SHOCKED by the level of development in these places, which is NEVER covered by international media.

Which is why they have brainwashed you to think that blacks are “on the floor, not rising”.

EDUCATE YOURSELVES and stop being led by the nose by white racist establishments and their fake narratives.

2elliot:
It still doesn't change the fact that those countries do not belong to blacks.

You are a DUNCE.

Go back to your dirty village because you are an embarrassment.

How does America belong to whites?

Don’t you know who the original Native Americans are?

Do you not know that the whites are FOREIGN INVADERS from Europe?

You think America is their homeland?

YOU ARE AN EMBARRASSMENT, so shut up.

Useless Nigerian youths with empty heads.

That’s why you go around STUPIDLY ing Trump, a racist to the core doing everything to destroy the blacks in America.

Meanwhile in America, 90% of blacks voted against him, and hate him to the core because he is a racist.

You are just a nation of ignorant white worshipping idiots too colonially brainwashed to research the world you live in.

Bendeco02:
You guys should rest

America is a latina/white nation

We all know how black reach there (slave trade and migration)

North America as a continent is not black continent. Africa is the only original black continent.

Stop looking for trouble where there's none

Can you go to Arab nation and be demanding for equal right. I don't know why we blacks like to form strong head to people liberal to us.

If they still give blacks political control of America, they will scatter the nation.

Typical stupid and dumb Nigerian opinion.

JUST SHUT UP WHEN IT CONCERNS DIASPORAN BLACKS BECAUSE YOU ARE DUMB AND KNOW NOTHING.

The US black population numbers 60 million out of the 330 million people of that country.

How DARE YOU call them “outsiders who don’t belong there”?

The blacks BUILT America, not just as slaves, which in itself is not inconsequential, despite your stupidly implying such, but also as INVENTORS, SCIENTISTS, S, and other PROFESSIONALS.

Go on ChatGPT and ask it to list you the BLACK AMERICAN INVENTIONS.

You will be SHOCKED that many things we use today were invented by BLACK AMERICANS, from traffic lights to refrigerated transport.

Do you know that a BLACK AMERICAN, Mark Dean, was a co-inventor of the IBM PERSONAL COMPUTER (PC) in 1981?

WITHOUT BLACKS YOU WILL NOT BE USING THAT COMPUTER YOU USE.

Do you know that a BLACK MAN invented the automatic elevator doors that prevents people from jumping to their death when they enter an elevator?

Do you know that it was a BLACK MAN, Benjamin Banneker, who designed the US CAPITAL, Washington DC?

Do you know it was a BLACK MAN who co-invented the LIGHT BULB?

Some white inventor made the first modern light bulb, but it couldn’t last for more than 2 hours.

It was a BLACK MAN who invented the FILAMENT in the light bulb that allows it to work for extended periods like years and months!

Why can’t you DUMBASS Nigerian youths stop being IGNORAMUSES typing rubbish online?

Go and research stuff instead of being an embarrassment to the black race, which you are, with your WRETCHED INFERIORITY COMPLEX AND SELF-HATRED.

Useless generation.

Quarterpast:


Don't mind them. Always criticising. Same people that can't produce ordinary toothpick are the ones talking down on other people's inventions

Shut up. What is “ordinary toothpick”?

Who “cannot” produce that?

Can’t you useless father produce them?

Benbisco:


You know, you could have made this post without the word "stupid" and still the message across.

Lack of home training is his problem.

OldSkoolHeadBoy:
The big news is the surprise that the unreliable vehicle did not fall apart on the road to disgrace Nigeria

STUPID ANIMAL. GO FCK YOURSELF WITH A STICK UP YOUR STINKY BUTT.

Lanruze:
To put it in the right perspective sir

Nigeria's GDP under Goodluck Jonathan when you led Occupy Nigeria= $510B

Nigeria's GDP under PBAT before the fraudulent re-basing = $300B.

GEJ- Partial subsidy removal. N67- N97 ing for a 69% increase only.

Tinubu full subsidy removal from N187 - N1,100 <N865 ing for a 462% increase.

WHAT IS THIS ONE SAYING?

OH SURE, TINUBU INSTRUCTED ALL THE SELLERS IN NIGERIA TO INCREASE THEIR PRICES BY 1 MILLION PERCENT AFTER SUBSIDY REMOVAL.

Did you factor in the NECESSARY currency devaluation and market forces including demand and supply?

EMERGENCY ECONOMIST FOR IPOB.

udemzyudex:
Lol.. It's shameful when you see an old man with no integrity.

Hypocrite.

YOU ARE THE ONE WHO LACKS INTEGRITY.

YOU IGBOS ARE HATEFUL LIARS WITH NO MORALS WHO ARE PRETENDING NOT TO KNOW WHY THINGS ARE ROUGH - ie the NECESSARY removal of fuel subsidy.

INSTEAD, YOU ARE BLAMING TINUBU FOR THE INFLATION. PRETENDING HE JUST WOKE UP AND UNILATERALLY RAISED PRICES TO OUT OF WICKEDNESS JUST TO MAKE NIGERIANS SUFFER.

OVER THE SAME THING PETER OBI SAID HE WOULD DO, IE END SUBSIDIES.

YOU ARE SICK PEOPLE.

YOUR MORALS ARE IN THE GUTTER.

ukukaegbu:
Stupid tribalist!

SHUT YOUR ROTTEN LIPS THERE, YOU HOMELESS ANIMAL.

HOW DARE YOU?

Soyinka has a BRAIN, unlike you dumb spare parts dealers.

Of course he must bide his time. HE KNOWS NIGERIA HAD TO REMOVE FUEL SUBSIDIES WHICH IS THE CAUSE OF THE INFLATION.

PETER OBI also promised to remove the subsidy “ON DAY ONE”, so the situation would have been the same, and YOU BASTARDS WOULD HAVE ED HIM and asked for everyone to be patient.

YOU ARE PROPER TRAITORS OF THE FIRST ORDER.

adalame:
The Igbo people have now positioned themselves as a major source of conflict in Nigeria, constantly engaging in disputes with others. If they had directed this level of scrutiny and pressure toward their governors, their region would have made much greater progress by now.

I just wish we could expel them all into their 5 state HOLE IN A CIRCLE, and build a wall round them so they can’t sneak out back into Nigeria.

These people are traitors.

I don’t even regard them as Nigerians at this point.

YeyeGbami:
Lagos dey smell but critics can’t leave Lagos to go and enjoy clean air in their villages.

EXACTLY.

IGBO DEVILS.

GO BACK TO YOUR FINE-SCENTED IGBOTIC UMUAHIA AND ONITSHA, UNA NO GREE.

YOU MUST PREFER THE “STENCH” OF LAGOS TO STARVATION IN IGBOLAND.

USELESS, WORTHLESS, HOMELESS WRETCHES AND ECONOMIC REFUGEES WITH AN ‘opinion’.

BadBradley:
What were they expecting when Mugabe was seizing white lands.

South Africa is the next Zimbabwe in that region.

“White lands”?

You must be very stupid.

“White lands” indeed.

Don’t use your stupid head to call it “WHITE STOLEN LANDS” , as you should.

I’m sure you are a white American Trumpist MAGA bastard by the sound of your name.

Stupid thief.

Meanwhile, welcome to Uyo.
