What is all this about nigerians not doing anything for jos? what is happening in Jos? People are choosing to kill each other in the name of religion? should we support that by throwing fundraisers for them? if so we might as well support all the terrorist acts going on in the middle east…even if we were to send funds to Jos, what channel would it go through? what structures are in place for them to receive charity.
They dont need money right now, they need the government to step in.
i think helping haiti out is a very good thing, if we had an earthquake pf that magnitude in nigeria, you best believe we would be relying on international help too…caus ewe have little or none when it comes to emergency services and rescue teams.
as for statements that we dont do anything for our own people, that is load of crap. I know at my church we have the Obalende project, to help peopke there, we give to orphans, and we feed them. On a personal level, i know what i do, charity begins at home but we dont have to shout about it!
Haiti needs us, what has happened to them is a natural disaster, way beyond anybody’s control, what is happening in Jos is man made. What they need is counselling and advice…so you want us to send them momey so that they can do what? Buy guns for killing each other? pleease!
and for all of you beefing these young artists who are trying to make a stand for haiti, why dont you stop being typically nigerian, if it bugs you that much, organise your own fundraiser for Jos, and stop hating on the good these people are doing.
At the end of the day, black, white, yellow, jos, haiti, we are all part of one race, lets be HUMAN!!!
AND DONT FORGET…1 out of every 3 black men in this world is pf nigerian descent….i already know of 3 nigerian families who have lost their loved ones in HAITI.
WHERE WERE ALL THESE FUCKING NAIJA ARTISTS WHEN JOS WAS BURNING??? M.I., MISTA INCREDIBLE…WTF DID YOU DO WHEN PEOPLE WERE DYING IN JOS???? MAYBE YOU DID SOMETHING AND WE JUST DON’T HAVE THE INFO…PLS SHARE (AS YOU REP JOS ON ALL YOUR TRACKS) NOT HATING…JUST ASKING…WHEN WILL NIGERIA HELP THEIR OWN???? MUSLIMS KILLING CHRISTIANS AND VICE A VERSA!!! WAKE THE FUCK UP PEOPLE!!! YES ITS OKAY TO GIVE LOVE TO HAITI BUT WHEN WE HAVE A CRISIS…….WHAT THEN????
THANK YOU DIASPORA!! AND GOD BLESS YOU SIR!!! I THINK WE NEED MORE YOUNG PEOPLE LIKE YOU AND ME TO MAKE NAIJA A BETTER PLACE, I HAVENT HEARD ANY OF THESE ORGANIZERS DOING ANYTHING FOR THE JOS CRISIS BUT WE ARE FOLLOWING THE FASHION OF FUND RAISERS!!!
WE NEED MORE YOUNG NIGERIANS TO STEP UP AND TURN BACKS ON ALL THE OLD PRACTISES AND DO SOMETHING FOR OUR COUNTRY
so what is the issue? You said it, in Jos it is stupidity, what do you do to remedy that? Ive moved back where are you? We need people like you out there making a difference. Dont say that people shouldnt support Haiti, with our infrastructure, useless Government etc, if we had an earthquake here, with the amount of illiteracy, can you imagine the catastrophe? So how can you knock these guys for supporting Haiti……….
I was at the show last night, MI and some other forward thinking young Nigerians are putting together a SOLUTION for Jos. Big up MI
nobody knocks down any haitian supporters we just want all that positivity to be re-directed to the right quaters!! You said u guys r putting together a solution for jos which is commendable!! that what we should be doing, putting our medicine where body dey hurt pass and not throwing it away,
supporting haiti right now is not sensible seeing that we cant support ourselves, the naija delta guys upon not receiving their pay are trying to start wahala again, there will be more religious uprest upnorth and the best we can do is support haiti? common man, be real
WHILE MY HEART GOES OUT TO MY HAITIAN BROTHERS, LET NAIJANS STOP THIS WANNABE-WESTERN-HUMANITARIAN-CRAP!!! WE HAVE LOTS OF AID TO GIVE OURSELVES, THERS ENUFF AID GOING TO HAITI, HOWEVER THE PROBLEM IS LOGISTICS, HAITI AINT BUILT WELL ENUFF TO HANDLE SUCH SITUATION AS A RESULT THERE IS CHOAS EVERYWHERE, HECK EVEN USA NO SABI EVEN HELP THE PEOPLE PROPERLY WITH ALL THE DONATIONS, ISREAL IS DOIN A BETTER JOB COS THEY DON SEE FIRST HAND KATATA FOR THEM OWN HOOD
THAT SAID, HELP THE NAIJA PEOPLE, IF HAARP HIT NAIJA AND WE R PLACED IN THE SAME CONDITIONS AS HAITI, WE NO GET THE THINGS PUT IN PLACE TO FACILITAT SOME SORT OF HELP SO LETS US WORK ON THAT, THERE ARE NUMEROUS PEOPLE AT THE STATE AND FEDERAL LEVELS THAT ARE OWED SALARIES FOR MONTHS, HECK EVEN THE ELDERS ON FEDERAL PENSIONS ARE OWED MONEY ——WHAT THAT FUCK —— I THOUGHT WE HAD A CULTURE THAT TREATED ELDERS RIGHT ==> WHAT A FUCKING JOKE
ABEG PULL DOWN THIS VIDEO FROM THIS SITE OVIE!!! THE ORGANIZERS ARE CONTRIBUTING TO MAKING NAIJA A BIG MASQUERADE PARADE
NAIJA RULERS AND NAIJANS ARE ALL FUCKING JOKES!!
GOD HELP HAITI BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY GOD HELP US COS OUR IDIOTIC LEADERS (OLDER GENERATION NAIJAN, if i must add) NO GO HELP US
My tots exactly, i dont know how naija developed this wannabe-developed-country attitude. apart from the fact that a lot of nigerians need a lotta assistance, there was a crisis in jos, no naiji artists did anything neither did notjustok publish any solidarity video or article. please lets wake up and help ourselves. like our elders say, remove the speck of dust in ur eye before…..
…THEM REMOVE THE PLANET FROM ANOTHER MANS EYE!! DADDY LONGSTROKE THE SENTIMENTS YOU SHARE, I HAVE BEGIN TO NOTICE IT AMONG OTHER YOUNG NIGERIANS TOO, I THINK WE ARE BEGINING TO GET TIRED…..I THINK GOD GO HELP US TO HELP OUR COUNTRY IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION MY BROTHER
You said it all. I rest my case.
commendable my balls…..haiti is currently receiving funds from the rest of the world….heck even Nigeria is giving them a million dolls…..don’t get me wrong, its good to give, but remove the log in your eye before you remove the speck in sumone elses…pls give the money to a rural community in nigeria that will really apperciate it jor…
The state of any rural community in Nigeria is not as a result of a natural disaster. You’re barking up the wrong tree. Hold your corrupt leaders responsible for the poverty prevalent in an oil producing nation. It’s neither a natural disaster, nor the fault of the celebrities that there’s poverty in Nigeria.
Commendable.
Good looking out. Thumbs up to everyone involved.
