Reasons Why The World Talk Of Nigeria

It's almost impossible not to talk about Nigeria and Nigerians. You meet them any and everywhere.

The most populated black nation in the world. People talk about us for our ground breaking achievements and of course, our unpleasant deeds.

Here are some reasons!

1. It's only in Nigeria leaders will come out to say they have built a world class hospital only to fly to India or the UK for medical treatment, even to check blood sugar level. They never go close to the hospital after commissioning.

2. Nigerians have been heralded as one of the most educated citizens living in foreign countries.

3. A place where every weekend is a celebration; bars filled up, colourful marriage celebrations, clubs filled to the brim, religious services echoing to heaven and even burial's of aged relatives call for a party.

4. A country where leaders continue to convince the youths that "they are the leaders of tomorrow" but the same leader has done all he can to remain in power in one way or another since I was born. Oga, which tomorrow are we talking about? Abi, is tomorrow a name of place?

5. A country that is still at the top of the jollof rice pyramid in West Africa despite our minister of information who's name is undoubtedly Lai Muhammed, claiming it was the Senegalese. Nigerian jollof rice is still the best!

6. A Country recently awarded the poverty capital of the world. And home of the fantastically corrupt leaders. But managed to remain the largest economy in Africa.

7. The church headquarters. Land of miracle workers. Home of rich pastors, poor members.

8. A country where leaders have successfully out maneuvered and enslaved citizens and has kept them begging for a drop of crumbs from their golden dinnings so the masses could continue fighting for their longevity.

9. A country who's citizens have given up on their government and has launched war on survival, battling against every odd, launching businesses to fight hunger and rewrite family histories.

10. A nation who's citizens have all become vigilante, guarding and protecting themselves because the majority of authorities have been bought over by rich political leaders to guard there empty houses, parked cars and sleeping wives and children.

11. A nation where citizens have realized Democracy as a demonstration of madness, a sick system that has giving the majority tribes and the ruling parties power to continue to determine our future in the worst possible way while making it look pretty

12. A nation where after graduating from tertiary institutions the first place graduates go to is to learn hand-work, instead of heading to companies or government offices for interviews.

13. A country where hundred thousand persons apply for hundred available positions in a company wanting to employ qualified personnel. The good news is, they are all qualified for the job. A tough choice for the company, and tough luck for applicants.

14. A country where people work tirelessly to turn stone to bread as a challenge to poverty... say poverty no reach, as a pure Naija blood.

15. A place where every Jane, Grace and mary from some fancy country claimed to have sent their hard earned savings to. And are now working tirelessly with the FBI to get them back after discovering it was a false promise... That's what the world call a romance scam.

16. The only country that could block a government road because of a marriage or a burial ceremony, thereby causing the most dreadful of traffic.

17. The only country in the world where you pay development fee before developing your own land, or constructing a road in a community. One practically pays to develop an undeveloped empty land. We are fast to blame the government but never our individual evil acts.

18. The only country people write “not for sale” and “beware of 419” on their properties. My English friends wouldn't stop making jokes about this at my previous job.

19. A country where a taxi driver carrying crate of eggs is more careful than the one carrying human beings. Life is a rollercoaster

20..A country where the most effective way to convince people to do a thing is to ask them never to do it... and vice versa.

21. A country where one could experience one of the closest relationships within and outside the family. What ever you own is also a property of your close relatives and friends except the person is unfriendly, and he will automatically qualify for the name "wicked man". Most women won't feel comfortable in her husbands house without the blessings of her husband's close relatives.

22. A country where activities like sport, music, marriage, burial and birthday celebrations could unite sworn enemies. No,...not religion, that's where enemity starts.

Oh! no, he didn't commit any Crime, it's a marriage invitation. One of “Only in Nigeria” moments.

I can go on and on....

Why won't the world talk about such a country?

A country where everything is complete.

Our news stations have a big story to tell every day.

On a good day either a Nigerian has done something absolutely beautiful or terribly wrong.

Life is drama down here. A game of thrones!

Fact: Any country you can't find Nigerians is unsafe and not profitable..

Florida's Messiest Execution

Florida's Messiest Execution On July 8, 1999, the execution of Allen Lee Davis set off a shock wave that rippled around the world. During his time in the electric chair, Davis bled profusely from the nose and suffered burns to his head, leg, and groin area. As the switch was thrown, the “Tiny” Davis, who was executed for the May 11, 1982, murder of Nancy Weiler and her two daughters, reared back against the restraints, giving witnesses a chilling glimpse under a black hood designed to hide the faces of the condemned. Blood poured from his vivid purple nose, ran down the wide leather strap that covered his mouth and soaked the white shirt. After the power was turned off, Davis was still alive. Witnesses said his chest rose and fell about 10 times before he went still. After the execution, state prison officials and Governor Jeb Bush said the Old Sparky functioned properly. Three photos of the incident have been published on Florida’s High Court official website in an attempt to argu...

The Macabre True Story Of Edward Paisnel, The Beast Of Jersey

The Macabre True Story Of Edward Paisnel, The Beast Of Jersey Throughout the 1960s, Edward Paisnel appeared to be a pillar of his small community on the English Channel Island of Jersey. He was a family man who was devoted to his wife Joan and her young children, and he even played Santa Claus at Christmastime for the young foster children at the group home that Joan founded. But when he wasn't spending time with his family or doing good deeds, he was donning this mask and sneaking into his neighbors' homes at night in order to sexually assault women and children. It would take more than a decade for police to finally catch up with the “Beast of Jersey" as they repeatedly focused on other suspects, blind to the fact that a man like Paisnel could commit such crimes. Officers only caught him when he ran a red light one day in 1971 and they happened to see his mask sitting right there in his car. Edward Paisnel committed more than a dozen rapes and assaults in the Channel Is...

The Daring Escape That Forged Winston Churchill

The Daring Escape That Forged Winston Churchill Future British Prime Minister Winston Churchill (far right) in a Boer prison camp. He was captured by the Boers after his train was ambushed in November 1899. He subsequently escaped in December 1899. When Britain went to war with the Boers in southern Africa in 1899, the future prime minister saw a chance to once again make a name for himself. Confirming Churchill’s assessment that “my literary talents do not exist in my imagination alone,” the London Morning Post won a fierce bidding war for his pen by agreeing to pay him $150,000 in present-day money for just four months’ work—a sum that exceeded those paid to either famed authors Rudyard Kipling or Sir Arthur Conan Doyle for similar work covering the Boer War. “Churchill was an excellent reporter. He understood history, so his analysis was insightful and brilliant, and his prose was incredibly beautiful,” Millard says. “I read a lot of coverage of the Boer War and his was head-an...

James Dean Posing Inside a Casket Seven Months Before His Death, 1955

James Dean Posing Inside a Casket Seven Months Before His Death, 1955 Throughout April of 1955, Life magazine commissioned photographer Dennis Stock to do a “visual biography” covering the life and times of actor James Dean. In addition to photos taken in New York City and Hollywood, it included a trip to his boyhood home of Fairmount, Indiana. In what would seem like eerie foreshadowing, Dean decided to pose inside a funeral parlor coffin for a series of shots. Sadly, the occasion would mark the last time Dean would visit Fairmont. He died just seven months later on September 30, 1955, in a car accident near Paso Robles, California. Afterwards, in 1956, George Stevens, director of Dean’s last and posthumous film “Giant,” was forced to address the photos while promoting the film. He told the Associated Press, “Jimmy Dean lived every day for the future. He had no more premonition of death than you or I … the picture beside the coffin was made when Dean visited a high school chum in his ...

He told me he would kill me like the others."⁠ ⁠ In 1999, the small town of Elephant Butte, New Mexico, was rocked by a chilling story from Cynthia Vigil, a 22-year-old woman who had narrowly escaped being murdered by a local mechanic named David Parker Ray.

Instead, Ray chained her up in his soundproof trailer, where he raped and tortured her with whips, medical instruments, and electric shocks with help from his girlfriend. ⁠ ⁠ Fortunately for Vigil, Ray's girlfriend accidentally left the keys to Vigil's restraints out in the open on the third day.

How Bedlam became London's most iconic symbol

How Bedlam became London's most iconic symbol Known colloquially as "Bedlam," Bethlem Royal Hospital in England was once a torturous facility that crammed people with mental illness together with violent criminals. Indeed, for hundreds of years, Bedlam was simply a repository for society's "undesirables," and with poor management and even poorer resources, the hospital soon came to define chaos. Because the hospital relied on donations from patients' families, many of whom did not have the means to pay more than was required of them, Bedlam opened its doors in the 18th century as a sort of sideshow attraction, charging the public for admission as though it were a carnival. Some 96,000 visitors a year came to Bedlam to gawk at the patients. As one travel writer observed in 1725, "Lunatics of every description are shut up. Many inoffensive madmen walk in the big gallery. The second floor is reserved for dangerous maniacs, most of them being chained an...

This 1960s Invention promised to Ease childbirth--- by Rapidly spinning the mother around untill the baby flew out

This 1960s Invention promised to Ease childbirth--- by Rapidly spinning the mother around untill the baby flew out The Blonsky Device, A Spinning Machine Invented To Fling Babies Out Of Pregnant People Everyone knows that childbirth isn't easy. But what if pregnant patients could simply strap themselves to a table, spin at a high speed, and propel the baby out?⁠ ⁠ In the 1960s, Charlotte and George Blonsky invented a contraption to do just that. Called the Blonsky device, the machine was designed to facilitate birth using centrifugal force. For safety, it came with neck, body, and thigh straps to hold down the pregnant person, and was also outfitted with a net meant to snatch up the baby after it flies out. As ridiculous as it sounds, the Blonskys actually got their patent approved in 1965 — though, perhaps fortunately, there's no evidence that the device was ever actually used. Read more about this bizarre invention by clicking the link in our profile.⁠ Witnessing an elephant...
