Nice one.

Just stay safe and away from any potential mass shooting site.

Our people say beauty no dey complete.

Their Government dey people-oriented, but you fit just say make you stroll go supermarket to buy some grocery the next thing one kolo oyibo wey half done and medium-rare meat don chop part of him brain go just enter there begin shoot everybody for no just cause.

In fact ehn, e no get anywhere wey e be 10/10.

Las las na only God perfect.

With this lockdown I just wished I was in my village aswear.

Easy jeje life...wetin concern you concern coro

I was shocked to notice there were no mosquitoes in my village the last time I visited. I slept with the netless windows open.

Is it Nigeria with Boko Haram, Bandits, Killer Herdsmen, ritualists, kidnappers and armed robbers you are comparing with Canada?

Hmm

Canada's budget this year is $355 billion for 24 million people.

Nigeria's budget this year is $26 billion for 200 million people.

And you expect Nigeria to give palliative of N626000 naira per person or per family?

Nigeria is a mess, but we are not up to Canada's level. Vote for governments who would make us an industrial nation, then we can talk.

To all those people cursing Nigeria up-thread...yes, we have had corrupt governments. But there is no way our government can afford to give stimulus of N626,000 naira to everyone. Not on our budget,without taking even more mega loans.

To be sincere, do we really deserve 5k.

But it wasn't every one that benefited oh..only those who made at least $5000 last year in income..and is not awoof money.. we would still pay back around $400 for every $2000 in tax next year..

Canada land mass is larger than ours times 10...its population is bearly 80million if at all i want to exaggerate....effective data base processing right from child birth to dealth...from entrance to exit of the country population census is intact with relative to time...but 9ja we influence population because of oil, pad budget because of oil, even the tax self it will amaze you that every organization has two accounting books.
One for FG or SG TAX collectors in that book they always record loss while the original account book is private to the company...i guess you know why because black man wants a flamboyant lifestyle without hardwork.

Even giving 100million Nigerians N50000 each a month would involve spending the equivalent of our budget for the year in one month.($26 Billion)

majority of us don't even pay tax.

If you preach birth control to the fellas up north, would they hear? One man who can't afford to feed himself would marry four wives and they'll birth over 10 children. Who does that?

$2600 is not a lot of money if you live in Canada.How long will it take you to spend that .

If you will no longer return to Nigeria because of that amount, I sympathize with your situation.

The coping mechanism in this thread is out of this world grin grin grin grin

grin grin grin grin grin grin grin I'm sure 5k will take more than 30 days to spend in NIgeira.

Thank you sir.

Where is Nigeria going to get this money from?

May be from the taxes paid, from groundnut sold, palm oil or cocoa sold.

Everyone wants free money from Niger Delta Oil income. If you do not have the opportunity to loot it dry, you want it as food and drinks and if you cannot eat or drink it, you buy French champagne, Swiss cheese, Italian pizza or American burger with the income.

While you reduce the same source of income to environmental dusk nightmare for poor fishermen and farmers.

Better still negotiate with fishermen's plights as militia and run out of the country with the money.

Stay in Canada, Italy and America and drive taxi, Uber or work as security guards and at Burger King as essential workers.

My only concern is for the talents that die there trying to save lives they could save in Nigeria




So something did not tell you that it's the talents that are moving en masse abroad
Especially to Canada and Australia

USA and Britain are also using underhand to poach our talents

Like I always say on this forum
With the rate at which skilled talent is leaving

Na agbero and MC Oluomo dem go full Nigeria
Make Nigeria scatter kpata kpata

Useless country with useless people
