More good news from Africa.Unbelievable!

[contemplator]

I got an email from one of those guys asking me to help them get their share of that money. All I needed to do was send them a little money to get the ball rolling.

And I have received emails from Nigeria offering to split over 1B$.

Hit em again, Hit em again, Harder, Harder

You can find out how to do that here.

Question; what signifigance is two pieces of white bread and a cricket as a breakfast choice? I think I got everything else, but, that one I don't.

[sgtbono2002]

If you took money and used it to wipe your butt it would at least do more good than sending it to Africa to be stolen by the corrupt while their own people starve. If you send food or medical aid instead of money they will charge for the food or medical aid and steal that.

There is but one way to save Africa and that is to take charge and place your own govt. there and no one has the gnads for that.

Hah!~ I've got millions of their money in my private acount,but for some reason I'm unable to access my password,
probably just a glitch down at the bank.

[Vicomte13]

You too?

They told me that it was very exclusive, so you must be somebody very important.

Given this latest news that they have all this money, I'm expecting a great return on all that cash I wired them!

Glad we got in while the getting was good!

[river rat]

This suggests two points....

Lack of money was NEVER the primary problem in Africa.
No amount of money will be sufficient with the "culture" that exists.

Putting more money in Africa, while under African rule -- is insane..

Semper Fi

[Blue Champagne]

Most of that money is being offered to me if I'll just help them move the cash via a 'perfectly legal' method. Top offer today is a share of $152 million.

[xrp]

Another reason why all foriegn aid should be private donations and funnelled through private charities.

[ken21]

believe me, they're not on the same wave length as us.

in college i got to know a nigerian student of the ibo tribe. he considered himself to be royalty, was very well educated by the british, but had no sense of responsibility towards others, whatsoever. he believed other people were to be used.

[reagan_fanatic]

I think they're just poking fun at the relatively primitive cuisine offered there.

[muawiyah]

Ah, yes, they stole everything, but on the other hand they gave the Moslem North Sharia Law with which to harrass each other.

All is not lost.(/sarcasm)

[muawiyah]

I remember when the Democrats and the Main Stream Media objected to Americans aiding the Ibo insurrection against the Nigerian thieves.

If the Ibo had won independence, at least some of that loot would have been deposited here rather than in Bahrain.

[muawiyah]

BTW, if you encountered an Ibo with royal pretensions, it would have been his ancestors that captured and sold most of the slaves who ended up in America.

[crazyhorse691]

Thanks. I sometimes over analyze and miss the point. But, I still won't let you share in my rescued Nigerian money:)
