ReplyDeleteWat is the motive behind it? Let dem stop 'washing' us jare! All the so called 'assistance' we ve received from the international community is just a way of milking us more, I know some of you will be quick to scream 'corrupt leaders' but trust me our leaders are 'dumb thieves' but them people are 'intellectual criminals' they will be stealing from ur country and in the eyes of the citizens they are doing us good and we will be thanking them(just as u all are doing now)! Africa Wake up!!! "Intellectual myopia" is a serious problem in Africa, even more serious than 'Corruption' every1 is screaming..... T.

ReplyDeleteIs gov Rotimi Amaechi really in a sizzling relationship with Nuella Njubigbo, find out more on

Doing for us what we should be doing for ourselves, anyways, all good still for those kids it will help educationally.
ReplyDeleteI sincerely pray that Boko Haram should not burn the schools down... But it's a nice gesture. The northerners really needs to be educated!
ReplyDeleteVewy thoughtful of dem,every country coming to our aid,soon it will be Haiti.
ReplyDelete~BONARIO~says so via NOKIA3310

ReplyDeletethanks to japanese Govt...remain who to attend
ReplyDeleteGod bless them!
ReplyDeleteHmmn , AID my arse . These Japanese officials want something that they consider valuable in return , u guys watch and wait for the news . I am sorry I don't trust these Asian people , they r very greedy people on the surface it will seem they r doing something nice but we all know that's not true .
ReplyDeleteI know this comment will cause a lot of controversy , so fire ahead
In Kano state,dats really nyc cos the north really needs to come up' educationally
ReplyDeleteOn the other hand,Our leaders will never do what will take pple off the streets cos they need dese urchins to use as political thugs!
This government and its incumbents have no shame.
ReplyDeleteJapan dashing us classrooms, whilst our incumbents ride around in flash cars, living in mansions and awarding dodgy contracts to their cronies to fill their pockets. Shame, shame on them.
Thank you Japan. God will bless you and replenish your pockets.
Don't worry, they plan to replenish their pockets with whatever it is they are "eyeing". Wake up Nigerians: there is no free lunch! Be ready to hand these guys your "birthrights".

ReplyDeleteno controversy you're 100% on point. The real world works on give and take barter and only Nigeria doesnt undertsand this bilateral concept. Education is actually the most IMPORTANT ministry in Nigeria bar none. It shouldn't even look like it requires aid to an outside donor if ou our leaders had any visoin at all.
33 primary skuls in 22 LGA's of one state..
ReplyDeleteWhat happened to a citing a skul in every state of the "Federation"?
Isnt that part of d true federalism we'v been sreaming about?
I wonder, and to think these Northerners hardly value western education, I doubt if those classes will be put to good use,
DeleteGod bless them ooo,but we should be very suspicious abt things.I think they are interested in our fertile land,for agriculture this 2013.and are trying to invest on it.cos very soon,there will be famine due to climate change.and Nigeria is one of the country in Africa that have almost all the opportunities in agricultural aspect.even if our government don't know the benefit
ReplyDeleteNo!!!! Common, we dont need all these aids in Africa. They should leave us alone and let us develop on our own.
ReplyDeleteTrust me, if a country givea you an aid worth $1, they will reap $100 in return. All these aids are soft ground for them to penetrate your country.
We need to get our acts together. We have the money. Just confiscate 2 jets that all these politicians and militants have bought, you will build double the number of the classrooms japan just gave to Nigeria.
Nonsense of a country with dullards and thieves in power.
My one cent...I know it doesn't get nowhere though!
i hope plateau state governor is aware,may be he will see d relevance on education. not leaving teachers 10months without pay
ReplyDeleteNigerians love getting aids, we always want to potray a hopeless and helpless situation to †̥ђε̲̣̣̣̥ international community,but they see us for what we trully are, a bunch of greedy corrupt people with no love for eachother.
ReplyDeleteAs for japan this is definitely a greek styled gift Nigerian government should beware because †̥ђε̲̣̣̣̥ japanese worked really hard to build their country,they spend wisely they just don't hand over gifts for free..
2.31 billlion for 317 classrooms. Very impressive. Believe me, Nigerian govt will spend that same sum on 50 classroom. Smh!!!
ReplyDeleteAfter donating milling machines to flood devasted states. Hope our stupid politicians are seeing
ReplyDeleteKudos to the Japanese organization and it was evenly distributed base on need.
ReplyDeletehttp://www.fastweightlosstipsnigeria.blogspot.com/
AND what are we giving in return? allegiance? because we nigerians have nothing to offer the Japanese government except OH WAIT loyalty! if shit goes down in japan, they would expect us to throw our people at their door steps to do as they like. all these aids in disguise, why accept from strangers when we could take care of our own?
ReplyDeleteNa hausa wey no dey go school na im dem dey give classroom, no be cow dem suppose give dem to rare
ReplyDelete@ anon 8:47,Your papa! U dey craze.no be only cow sef,na goat.its stupid derogatory ethnic comments like this dat I'll make d country forever divided.first of all its d fulani's that rear cows,not d hausa's.nd second of all not everyone from d north is hausa or a muslim.where do you think d highest number of languages spoken in Nigeria are found?
