Have u been to the Bole Intl' airport in Ethiopia?
I heard it is comparable to the Jalingo airport

CFCfan:

The article didn't allude to that. It said she owns her own shop somewhere in Lagos Island.
The girl blows $45,000 per year on shopping in London's Woolworth and other high-end stores.

CFCfan:

Those stuff are usually for family and friends back in Naija, or for sale at their shops.

I read the story of a 25 year old Nigerian lady who travels to London 6 times a year. She typically spends 2 weeks in London on each trip. Her shopping bill for just two weeks is around $7,500.

booqee: you're perfectly maadd! U quoted dat long post just to write nothing?! Na thunder go faya ur yansh!

adaobi123:

Paentera:

Very true and there're many more who spend even more. My sis does pop into UK & USA for a combined 6-8 times annually and spends double that to stock up. Initially, she would come with so much luggage (to claim her VAT) but these days, she prefers her peace and sends the goods by cargo. No wahala of bribing some customs officer or her baggage taking hours on end to all come out of that nasty baggage section.

israel007: What of when u land and everyone just stands up wanting to get out of the plane as though there's something eating them on board!

adaobi123:
This boy you are serious. Even when she shops at a pen and pencil shop, you still want her ?

Jollof: Like me, I bet you've all run around with your bathing towels wrapped above your shoulders like a cape and pretended to be Superman (and if you haven't then it's never too late!). Ever since I was a little brat I wanted to take to the skies. Air travel is the next best thing and I'm always looking forward to having a glass plastic cup of ice-cold apple juice which always tastes better at 10,000 feet. What could possibly disrupt this moment of long-awaited bliss? Cue the Nigerians... On my recent return trip from New York alone I encountered 7 annoying things Nigerians did on the plane:

1. Securing beds...in Economy Class! There's a game Nigerian passengers play whenever they're on-board a semi-full airplane - It's kind of similar to Musical Chairs...but without the music. Passengers snub the seats assigned to them and scout for a stretch of three to four empty seats before take-off. Handbags and other luggage items are strategically placed on empty seats in the hope for that Business Class experience - pathetic.

2. Making dramatic Nollywood scenes. Whoever said 'Rules are meant to be broken' must have been a Nigerian. We're pretty damn good at breaking rules...into smithereens, just for good measure. There was one woman sat at the front of economy class with her less-than-a-year-old baby. She put her baby down on the empty seat next to her when the seat belt light was off (not sure if that's proper in the first place but I'll let her off on that one). The moment the seat belt light was back on, however, one of the air hostesses called her to order and told her to strap her baby in place - RED ALERT! RED
