New Topic : The return of Colonialism and Colonial Mentality.

Will American or British Politicians under any reason travel to Nigeria or any other country to hold meetings on issues concerning their countries?

There’s what we call national dignity, everyone who took our national matter to hold meetings in a foreign land has betrayed our country.

There’s no justification for this action. Disappointed at Elder Statesman Obasanjo he should know better and should have discouraged this.

They can still gather at Otta farm and hold meetings. This is not pre independence era this is 62 years after independence, you still take matters like national elections which bothers on national security to discuss in a london hotel? This is unacceptable.

It reminds of the pre independence meetings in London in 1957 and 1959. Akinloye, Zik, Awolowo, Tafawa Balewa will be turning in their graves seeing our national leaders 62 years later in London discussing Nigeria. One day the federal executive council will also hold its weekly meeting in London. What a shame and a National disgrace.

Question: What Is colonial mentality?
I was actually going through on my FB and I found this decided to share here let see what we can view from many people.

I personally don't see any big deal with them holding their meeting in London or any other place they choose, and there's no need to compare the activities of our politicians with those politicians in America and Britain, e be like "white man mentality" to me like say we must always compare our actions with their own for validation. The main issue of concern for me is the details and wetin dem resolve for the meeting. If you observe the picture wey Obasanjo dey, you go see say Atiku nor show face for there regardless of say e dey the same london and na OBJ former vice. E dey do me like say OBJ and am still dey get problem.

It is only those who are from the social sciences understand the OP point of view and also the pain he has. Frankly speaking what the OP said is 100% correct as 4 me. That is those men have love, value and respect their own country. How can a leader go out to another country to discuss their country's affairs. Is there war in their country? They can only go out to discuss Nigerian issue out country if there is serious war in the country.

I personally don't see any big deal with them holding their meeting in London or any other place they choose,

Everything is wrong by going out to discuss their country issues in another country. Is there any war in Nigeria? The OP is right. The money which used to lodge in London would have been used in Nigeria.

I love it when issues of national interests are brought up for discuss. I feel that sometimes, when we compare Naija with the developed countries we fail to be all encompassing. Personally, I am up for anything conversation amongst elder state's men that will  take us out of this mess we have found ourselves in. I do not care whether the conversation holds in the Sahara Desert, the Zenith of Everest or in Antarctica. For as long it is something that borders on national development, economy empower and political stability, I am up for it. Besides, I think it is a self-sponsored trip not with tax payers money.

Ideally I don't really love the fact that people who are supposed to fix the nation are just politicing everything and I can't just imagine how an old man would want to rule to the instead of training up young and vibrant youths who will take the country to a better position than before. I personally noticed that Obj and Atiku Abubka are not appearing in same picture yet he wants to rule a country I will to love to asked
Is that a good example of a good leader?
No simply because what have passed have passed and he should forever forget whatever that came between their two and seek for the further development of our country nigeria instead fighting each or wasting money just to be at the top.
They knew Obi is able and capable to rule and raise the country from sinking and drowning.

Oh God, I can not discuss politics in this place. When I see some comments I  hurt badly. Please the bolded part of the quote. Who are those people in Nigeria? Whenever money spend by those people people belong to me and you, mostly the Niger Deltans. Also do u Know how much is spent in that trip? If that money is spent in Nigeria it will increase the country's Economy. Now oya look at this. The hotel they paid, the owner will spend it in his country which is making the country Economy to increase because extra money has been sent to the country Economy. Then the same thing to the food and and clothes and others things that were bought by them. If that money was used in Nigeria it would have a benefit to those people that own the businesses and the money would been circulated in the country. And any leader who is not thinking this way to develop his Country is not a good leader. A good leader must think this. Once again, reminder, any money these Politicians dey spend belong to the Nigerians.

This thing wey Adbicto post dey increasing my anger. I have forgotten this guys for a very long period of time. Since after NYSC. I stopped this arguments. Bcoz whenever I think about it, it hurts me badly. Any Youth support a Politician that is not supporting the youths, the poor masses and other lower class people is already my enemy. Please nobody should support any of those Politicians they are wicked as their master the devil.

Now listening: There are three phases Africa Politics. The first phase or period dey tok about di culture of Africans. Di wey we been dey do things 4 we kwantries. We bin dey eat 2geda, we bin dey killed twins, we bin dey married plenty wives, wen a woman gave birth, Dem go carry di pikin go 4 juju man 2 see d future of di pikin, nd Dem bin dey used Communism type of government nd a lot more, nd dat is called pre-colonial Phrase.

Di second phase is colonialism. In dis phase. Oyubo don come 2 di African scene. Wey bi say di following words were used. Balganization, oppression, subzigation, discrimination, separation and tintinbabolation of di echo sounds. Nd there were 2 group of pipo were in di parliament. Conformist nd non-conformist characters. Conformist characters r di ones dat agreed 2 shared any money met 2 develop dia constituencies, regions or local areas. Nd non-conformist r di ones opposes di conformist. So di non-conformist r called scapegoat, fools etc.

Den di third phase na di stage Africans were very happy dat di oyubo don commot 4 we region, na our fellow black man go rule us, bt ironically, all di characteristics u see in di second phase e dey di 3rd phase. African leaders e don become devil incanate 2 dia fellow blacks di way di oyubo were doing d same way our leaders r doing.

Therefore, everything Adbicto said is very correct. I am angry again.

Must the meeting be held in London? Do you know how many aids went with each governor or other VIPs. This is waste of government funds because you cannot tell me that it is self-sponsored. What are their sources of income apart from politics.They would never have a meeting in London if it was their personal funds. They are not discussing any issue of national development but how to grab power, distribute political offices and device revenue sharing formula. These meeting can be held anywhere in Nigeria behind closed doors. In fact Wike's private residence in Port Harcourt would be very suitable.

Honestly this pepo same no dey catch me again. Me I don tell pepo around me say I no dey discuss naija matter again to say this one right or this one wrong becos all of us sabi the way forward.

Even if to say na me dey the pepo wey attend the meeting shoes and e com be coincidence say we meet dere for London or anywhere for abroad say make we come hold national meeting about naija as things be like this wey nothing dey move, Omo me I go avoid the meeting and advise against it. One of our guy dey say the meeting na self sponsored meeting lol. I dey laugh because some of us no say many politicians lie pass lie Mohammad. Notwithstanding who pay for the trip or say na coincidence, abeg me no support that kind meeting, meeting wey dem dey do for Aso rock every Wednesday, senate, federal house of reps and states houses never yield any result, na their "London conference" go bring result

[Coyster]

There’s what we call national dignity, everyone who took our national matter to hold meetings in a foreign land has betrayed our country.

Don't you think you are blowing things out of proportion here bro, to betray the country will take way more than just holding meetings outside Nigeria, take for example, APC have betrayed Nigeria because when they were voted in to lead the country a couple of years back, quite a lot of people had high hopes and aspirations that they were going to be the "change" we so wanted, but it has been the complete opposite since then till now, they have taken the country many miles backward, and the state in which we are in now is prolly the worst in our history. Now that is what you call a betrayal.

Having said that, i respect your opinion that they prolly should hold their meetings within our shores, and whilst i don't think it matters too much where they discuss issues of national interest, i also do not think you are wrong with your own opinion. Prolly that location was the best place all parties could convene at, maybe if it were held at a specific location in Nigeria, some of them might have turned down the meeting for security and personal reasons, thus if they can get a venue that will be convenient for all parties and ensure attendance is complete, then there is no problem with that for now. Don't worry, let us just work together and get our country back, then we prolly might not have to go anywhere to hold meetings of our national interest.

Thank you @Coyster for echoing my points. While I understand where Adbitco is coming from, I do beg to differ. Just to buttress my point once again, I do not think these men actually left the shores of Nigeria just to have a meeting. What I think is that the meeting plans coincided with their abroad engagements and they just added it to their schedule. For me I am all in for whatever will bring peace, progress and unity to our beloved nation.

Adbitco, I do not want to dig into the source where you got this post, but with the one I read, I am certified and 100% in support of the writer.

Taaaah! Who do us?
E do for our leaders and politicians, these guys are fvking dumbass and I no go fail to slam dem for any misbehavior dem exhibit.

Any small misunderstanding, na for outside country dem go reconcile, small thing dem go jet commot.

If them sick, na abroad for medication.

Even Baba Buhari for throughout his tenure, na for abroad him dey address Nigerians. I believe say na Abroad him call us Lazy youths.

For Ojokwu and Gowon time, na for Ghana abi dem sign accord wey cause wahala.

If we no speak out, next government go continue.

There is 1000000% everything wrong with those fizzy buzzy men to dey run outside to make decisions. I no know where dem copy that rubbish from.

I bet you that every decision wey dem don take for Nigeria, na for outside dem discuss am, our assembly people no dey make law, na Bill of decision dem dey pass.

Make all of dem getawt, government wey never help us na today dem go get sense?

Congratulations to all of us, we dey on page 200 now. Let's go for page 300

Political Exposure of the 2023 General Election

APC Government which is led by Buhari has be given Tompolo the Niger Delta war lord a surveillance contract of billions nairas to guide the oil blocks in the terrain. Now why this contract is given? This contract is given because of the 2023 general election. APC Government is trying to buy the youths minds to join them. And the contract is to mobilize all the youths from the cross root. Each community in the Niger Delta will provide 200 youths for surveillance employment work. Niger Delta youths have been asking for this work since 1954 when Azik also disagreed with them from the ports.

It is only those youths that doesn't understand Politics will fall for these traps, and also the greedy ones. This is called Political calculation. I want to encourage my fellow youth. Please no matter what. Obi is the one. Collect the money and vote for Obi. Whether they look you or not.

I am fully back to the Political scene. Adbicto has taken me up again. Any analysis of Politics call my attention. Nigeria must Stand Again.

If we are being honest, everything in Nigeria should not be seen as politics because it is dragging the country backwards. Tompolo has been on this contract since the GEJ administration, and the sole purpose was to protect oil facilities and combat illegal bunkering in the Niger Delta. When the Buhari-led administration came into power, they canceled the contract because they felt it was unnecessary, and declared him wanted. Today, the country is struggling to produce 1.2 million barrels per day, compared to the 2 million barrels per day the country was producing under GEJ when Tompolo was on the job. This is for the good of the country, not for political purposes.

Each community in the Niger Delta will provide 200 youths for surveillance employment work. Niger Delta youths have been asking for this work since 1954 when Azik also disagreed with them from the ports.

This is false, you are spreading propaganda.

My own point on the meeting be say except na coincidence make them meet there but if to say na persin pay for the trip say make dem go dere go do meeting or say na tax payers money, me no see any sense for their journey dere.

For me I am all in for whatever will bring peace, progress and unity to our beloved nation.

Lol that thing wey dem go discuss for London wey go make naija better, we dey wait to see am.

You know I have been asking myself say all the past musicians been don sing about the ills in naija and till today instead of being beta, we dey enta more more into ocean. The likes of Fela and plenty more. Sonny Okosun own (which way Nigeria? ) just dey slam for my head.
