Northern Nigeria Youth need to STEP UP

The History of Nigeria has always been deeply rooted in Religious and tribal warfare and quite frankly the change lies in our hands as the youth of this beloved country.  The current insecurity that is going on in Nigeria today as a result of this Boko Haram nonsense to me is just a cry for help by the youths of the Northern parts of Nigeria.  Since the 1960s, the South West and South East have continually progressed in terms of education and trade and thus the development can be seen in their respective regions but the northerners instead have turn their back on education and chose to send their kids to the military or just Islamic schools but have failed to get them educated so they can compete with their fellow Nigerian youths from the south.  The focus on Islam needs to be reduced because quite frankly this is 2012 and Technology is the order of the day.  These youths need to educate them selves and develop their regions instead of fighting everyone for no reason.  The Sokoto caliphate and all the emirs up there are stuck in the past and the youths need to show them that they cannot move forward unless they they abide to Western customs like Lagos is currently doing.

Can someone tell me what these guys are fighting for?  They say all Christians should leave the North and then the next minute they are fighting the Government.  Sounds to me like these guys are just crying for help because they can't compete with the intellectuals and Technocrats down south.  The governors up there are also to blame because they cater to Islam way too much when they should be educating the youth and make them innovators.  Most of the kids are intelligent but their  Islamic scholars won't let them harness their potential because they want to control them for their own gain. 

Time is NOW or NEVER for Nigeria

In one of my earlier posts, I said that we needed to start a revolution called Occupy Nigeria and this was even before the subsidy removal palava.  My rationale was that we as a country was too blessed with natural resources (Oil) to be living like this.  A country that has that much Oil but yet 70% of its population lives on less than $2 a day?  A country that flares enough gas to power the whole of West Africa but yet it's citizens live in darkness, a country that exports crude oil but yet imports petroleum products, a country where refineries are operating at 10% or less and the NNPC is allowed to defraud its citizens and enlarge their pockets.

Why did it take so long for us to begin these protests and strikes? Is it because we love our lives so much and don't want any commotion? Is it because we are so infatuated with the rich and all want to be politicians some day as well?  Whatever the reason may be, Its about time we put that all aside and fight for this nation and cut off the rot once and for all.  We need new leaders who are younger and are way smarter than those we have now.  We need to expose and eliminate the so called Cabals who are so greedy that they could care less about the masses. We need to stop fantasizing about their lifestyle and mansions and worry about our own well being.  We need to STAND up for our Rights and protect our country so that our children can have a country to call home.

Those bastards in the north who think Nigeria is their own and think they can use religious violence to disrupt our peace must be exposed and eliminated.  They have been in control too long and we need intellectuals to run the government and not old fools who are in their 70s and 80s.

Misconception of "Swag" and how black men need to get it right.

Black men of this generation face all kinds of problems from high incarceration rates to high unemployment rates and while some of these problems are caused by the plans and systems that the "Man" has put in place to put us down; majority are of course by our own doing.  One of the issues that we created and we must fix asap is this new phenomenon called Swag.  Swag I guess is a man's persona, style or just the way he carries himself and presents himself to the world and also what make him cool.

I had to blog about this because i was having dinner with a young black woman who I had so much respect for until she told me that the one guy she had a crush on was Lil Wayne because he is the black dude with the most "Swag". I asked her what she meant by Lil Wayne having swag and she started rambling on and on about the way he dresses and what he says to women in his songs.  This dumb broad even went to say that she would sleep with Lil Wayne just because of the things he says?  Wow, the same dude that said "I wish I could fuck every girl in the world" and has like 5 baby mamas  and can't stay of drugs or out of prison.

Now to me Obama is a guy that has swag because for one he ain't never been to jail and has a nice job, dresses appropriately (no sagging here).

So dear brothers, instead of you sitting around and whining about the problems the society has poured on you, please know that how you present yourself to the world matters a lot and could be the key to you breaking that unemployment jinx or meeting people who can help get you to good places in life.

Some stupid hoes might have you believing that looking like wayne or Soulja boy is swag and may even give you some pum-pum for that but you have to choose between being a successful man in life or getting regular hood rat pum-pum.  

Kim Kardashian files for Divorce after 72 days. What a Nutcase!!

Okay so by now most who know me already know that I don't believe in marriage and I feel its just an old tradition that will eventually become extinct.  Majority of men nowadays will cheat on their spouses within a year of marriage so why do we even bother to go forward with the lavish weddings (a la Nigerians)?
I knew Kim's wedding was not going to last like the rest of the world also knew but even I did not think it would be over so quick.  This is going to be a big deal because how can you spend $10Million on wedding and then less than 3 months later, its over?  What were they thinking and why did they not take time to get to know one another before making a stupid mistake  jumping the broom?

How should the guest feel that a wedding that they took time out to plan for and spent money to get nice digs is already over before they can even say Congrats?  How should the sponsors feel after investing millions into this garbage of an event? Or how about Vera Wang who probably created an entire staff to attend to Kim's wedding dress project?  How should Kris's parents feel after inviting family and friends to share the joyous occasion with never mind the fact that they must have had to explain why their son is doing such a stupid thing anyway.

I mean seriously, what could have left them to come to such a decision so quick?  Word has it that Kris wanted to live in Minnesota and Kim wanted to live in LA which makes no sense at all because shouldn't they have had that convo within days of being together?

I had a friend in Nigeria who also had one of the most lavish weddings that I had ever seen in my life and within six months of marriage , we were out in Vegas together with girls all around us and yes he smashed a couple of them.  I am counting down to the divorce date on that marriage because it also has SCAM written all over it.

Obama the Messiah or Obama the 419?

I rarely cry in this life because quite frankly I am not an emotional dude but I will say that I cried twice because of the POTUS Obama; once when I was at that polling booth right after I voted for him and second the day he won the general elections and was giving his ever moving and motivational speech.  However, after the tears and hoopla has settled in, I am beginning to ask some questions about who really this dude is because all the promises that he gave during his campaign seem to be kinda empty now because for one, we are still in Iraq and Afghanistan and secondly the Big banks who got America into this mess were given hefty bail outs by the guy who was supposed to be against the financial special interest and lobbyists.

Politics by definition is a process whereby groups of people make collective decisions  but who are the group of people that are making decisions about America and the rest of the world.  Research the Bilderberg group and you will see who runs the world.  The Black man was just used as a pawn once again to be a puppet to calm down the revolution that was about to start.  They put him there so that he can continue their agenda of world domination and all that campaign rhetoric was nonsense.  Take a look at his cabinet and you will see the same people who ruined USA but he wants us to believe that the change will come from those same people?

So while we are happy and celebrating all over the world about having a black president, we must not forget that the world is still controlled and dominated by Anglophones and they just used a black man to calm the world down while their agenda continues.....

Occupy Nigeria NOW!!!

The new wave of occupy Wall street and other cities all over the globe has got me thinking why we as Nigerians who have been hoodwinked for years have not yet had Occupy Lagos or Occupy Abuja?  The protesters are protesting the way the rich keep getting richer and the poor keep getting poorer and is there any place more evident of that in the world than in Nigeria?

The band of Elitists that control most of Nigeria's resources and keep pummeling us into debt have had a free run for years and yet no student protests nor revolution has occurred.  Is this how we will continue to sit down and watch these bastards as they treat us like slaves?  Americans and Europeans have started their own revolution and we all saw what happened in the Arab nations with the likes of Ghadaffi; so when will we rise up and say ENOUGH IS ENOUGH?

Should / Would you let a mate know that he / she is just a fling?

So I just got off the phone with my friend who recently relocated temporarily to Nigeria for business and while we were politicking (guy talk) he informed me that he is now prancing around in a Range Rover jeep and that the owner of the car is a girl he is dating / sleeping with.  That will be fine except for the fact that the dude is married here in the states.  What really caught my attention is when he said that the girl told him to please not hurt her and he said to me that he was thinking to himself that "abi she should not hurt herself" LMAO.  We laughed for a second and then after I realized that this is not funny as the poor girl has probably started telling friends and family that she has a new guy who just relocated from USA.

So my question is should one just keep it real and tell a new acquaintance that this here is just a fling and nothing long term will come from it?  Keep in mind that if he had kept it real, he probably won't be getting free dinner, sex and of course riding around in the range rover.

Ladies, wanna know the real reason why you are not married?

Nowadays, it seems as though marriage is a hot topic of discussion and different ideas are raised like "There are not enough good Black Men" to "Marriage is a tradition that is on the decline".  This is definitely not the seventies and things have changed but a lot of young black folks are still getting married and for the ladies that can't seem to get to that promised land of matrimony, here are a few reasons why Mr. Right has not come knocking yet.

1. You're too High maintenance - This in my opinion is the leading cause of women getting old without getting wifed up.  The truth is that most black men are very insecure with their financial status these days due to the global economic crisis and they would hesitate to approach a woman who looks like she is a manikin for Gucci or Christian Loubintin.  We don't want a woman who will spend all of our life savings trying to be a fashionista but instead we want a very conservative woman who can help manage the family finances and raise our kids beyond materialism.  
2. Your attitude stinks - Black men generally want peace at home simply because we face major bullshit everywhere else outside our home, so the last thing we need is a woman with an attitude problem.  So ladies, if you are dating a man and your bad attitude comes out frequently then he is probably going to hit it and quit it asap.  We want loving and caring women who have done all their soul-searching prior to meting us and not women who just seem to be mad at everything around them. 
3. You have no Class -  This is strictly from an educated and progressive black man's point of view because some dudes don't seem to care much about this especially when they have no class themselves.  However, if I am worried that you will embarrass me when I take you to a function or you will make my friends laugh at me because you lack class, then i'm probably going to delete you number asap.  I mean really, who wants a classless woman to begin with.  So read a book or magazine and start to carry yourself in a better way.
4. You're too desperate - With age comes desperation for single women simply because their clock is ticking but ladies please "take a chill pill" when you meet a new guy and let things flow.  Do not start discussing marriage withing two months of meeting the dude because most likely you will push him away except he is as desperate as you and that itself is a very bad thing.  Take time to get to know him and learn about each other rather than planning a wedding in your head the moment you meet him.  I have argued this with a few of my single 30 year old female friends and they keep telling me that it's not as easy as I think and I told them that no man wants to feel rushed into marriage of all things so even if they are justified but the man perceives it as desperation then he would bail. 
5. You're not a HUSTLER - This is the biggest reason why most women are not married in my opinion because men don't like to talk about it much but we do think about it.  Black men are lagging behind in the income department these days (actually always) so if we run into a woman who is a hustler (Lawyer, DOCTOR, business woman, pharmacist), we do the math immediately in our heads and the numbers look good so we do whatever it takes to keep that woman.  Take me for instance, I earn a six figure salary and say there are two ladies, one makes $120,000 and the other is currently working as a waitress or hair dresser, who do you really think my brain will tell me to choose for marriage assuming other criteria are similar?  

These are just five reasons why ladies are not yet married and another five reasons will be released shortly.  Do you agree or disagree?  

 

Glen Rice is my hero for "Smashing" Sarah Palin

So apparently Sarah Palin has and probably stills has the "Black Man fetish" as we are made to believe in the new book soon to be released by Joe McGinniss, a writer who studied her for a couple of months and interviewed people close to the former governor.

This makes me wonder how many non black women actually fantasize about being with a Black Man and also how many actually have a fetish of such.  We black guys are seen in so many ways in the world society today but one thing that is for sure is the fact we are seen as the Mandingos of the world and every woman wants to have the feeling of sexual domination every now and then.  

Word around town is that Glen Rice has an 11inch penis and I'm sure the former VP candidate enjoyed every bit of it.  Also am I the only one who thinks Glen looks like Lexington Steele the porn star who himself is very endowed?

Anyway, white women please feel free to enjoy your fetish and if you see me on the streets, please let me know that I can fulfill your very last fantasy.  LOL

You must be used to me spending and all that sweet wining and Dining but I'm ______ tonight

I have been dating this pretty woman for over 6 weeks now and we have been on a couple of dates so far but yet no affection.  By my calculations, I have spent over $500 on food and drinks all in the name of getting to know her and I am about to give up but i feel if I do then my $$$ would have gone to waste.  What should a man do at this point?  I can keep "trying" to get to know her and keep spending or I can just say fuck it and tell her to go kick rocks.  She is very beautiful and that is what keeps me going although my old self would have given up after date # 3.

Guys, do you have any rules regarding dates and sex?  Let's share and women please feel free to let us know what exactly would make you keep going on dates without dropping them panties?
