I dislike this comment. (Seun please add dislike button)
Why?
Are you planning to move to Russia?
Do you know anyone who lives in Russia?
If you were offered today a choice between 5 countries you could move to and asked to place them in order of preference (Canada, USA, UK, Australia, Russia), where would Russia rank for you on that list?
So why are you lying to yourself and others?
Why do you dislike my comment?

It's funny how pro-Russia stories must be believe at face value but anti-Russia stories are western propaganda.

More than 10 people have commented and none, I mean absolutely none has raised the question of the accuracy of the number.

Are the foreigners registered by the Russians before they are allowed to fight for Ukraine or is there a central database that both countries have access to where they are registered.

very funny
Only God knows why you are so smart. All these mumus praising Russia, I don't see them hustling Russian visas. Every other country mentioned as contributing fighters is where all these bozos want to move to. They want to move there while idolising a despot and his murderous regime.
Every bad thing you think GMB is, Putin is times infinity.
My challenge is simple, which of you Russia praising bozos want to move there?

This is deep. Nigerias situation is beyond redemption. But the problem is we can't all leave....



It's painful... And presidential form for the ruling party is 100 million naira.
Hmmm...
I used to think like you. But it's really not that hard to leave.
If you can read and write, find a sch. Any school abroad. Apply for admissions, apply for scholarships, apply to everywhere, apply yourself.
Don't pay anyone to do it, don't be scammed. That is all Nigerians are good for, scamming their fellow suffering citizens.
Since I left Nigeria, I realised there are people worse than you from other countries who have made this move and succeeded. If they can, why can't you?

Emmm...
Just checking on all those who were encouraging this "oyibo" to come live in Nigeria that year.
Feeding him/her delusional ideas and not facts about how hospitable Najeria was/is.
The BIGGEST problems with Nigerians are 2 things
1. Disconnect with reality/facts
2. Lack of intuitive foresight

1. Disconnect with reality/facts
Even in 2006 when this "oyibo" asked this question, Nigeria was bad. I had just left uni 2 years before. Fresh engineering graduate. Finished from a class of 186 engineers, as at 2006, Nigeria had not yet let me start NYSC 2 years post graduation. Young, ambitious, wasting away. But already, I could see the reality on ground. 3 years or so before that, MASSOB had declared Biafra. Niger/Delta militants had been formed. Plateau crisis was in its 3rd or 4th iteration and thousands had been killed by Christian/Muslims and Fulani herdsmen/farmer clashes. The first batch of corrupt Nigerian govs had been exposed. Alams in jail for Bayelsa, Dariye dressed like a woman escaped from the UK, Fayose run away from Ekiti after the infamous "your chicken no dey shit" scam. In the midst of that, there I was unemployed. Imagine if a dear/personal friend in the abroad posed this question to me about relocating to Nigeria, what should have been my honest reply?

2. Lack of foresight
I eventually did get a job. And I stayed in touch with my graduating engineering cohort. Remember that 186 that I graduated among? As the years went by, less than 40 got jobs at all and less than 18 or so got really meaningful, good paying jobs. Among the 18 or so that did, gradually they lost their employment and fell into Nigeria, joining the 3/4 of the class that NEVER EVER got jobs in the first place. Nigeria happened to them. IPOB was created, fulani herdsmen graduated to fulani bandits. Election fuelled massacres started to happen in the north. Boko Haram was founded. None of these events came as a surprise to me. I had from around 2010 made it my life's ambition to leave Nigeria. I did eventually. I am a citizen of a 1st world country now. I just completed a 1300km solo drive through lonely roads in the middle of nowhere, stopping to rest and take photos, with not a care in the world for safety. And as I did that, I juxtaposed it with my 2 armed robbery experiences on Nigerian roads. I said a silent thank you to myself for seeing Nigeria has I expected it to evolve into, and planning a great escape. Then I compare my foresight/insight with these people who advised, nay, urged this "oyibo" to come to a country I was desperate to leave. And I wonder what became of them. Did Nigeria chew them up and spit them out as it had countless millions since they told "oyibo" to come too? Were they truly so short-sighted to not see that the saying that "sometimes everything that can go wrong, all happens simultaneously" was applicable to Nigeria? Or were they just from the "I cannot come and suffer alone" school of thought. Whichever it is, my disenchantment with Nigerians stemmed from the eternal optimism of the people there, with no work put in to change things, their low engagement with the political process and their faith in things they cannot control. A toxic cocktail I knew would kill me if I stayed. So I ran.
Nigeria would only get worse. I knew this in 2006. Just as I know now that Nigeria isn't yet at rock bottom, it will get worse (adding before it will get better is a lie I won't add to the statement). Many Nigerians then and even now lack this foresight.

Dear "oyibo". I hope to God you listened to Seun and stayed in the UK.
If you came to Nigeria, then I have to ask you, HOW MARKET? ? You should be familiar with that saying by now

Ogbeni this matter hard gan oo. You borrowed her 10m she returned 15m, which kind business she do to give you such crazy interest within a short time frame? And who even borrows anyone such kind of amount without a collateral. She set bait for you, you sef kon swallow am. The EFFC would be your best bet in this type of situation. Good luck with recovering your money.
loaned her 10m, she returned 10m. then later loaned her 15m, she returned all of it
she did not return 5m as interest as you are suggesting.
Modified in case it does not read well.

WEALTH304:
this is so funny.am also a graduate of mechanical engineering from University of Lagos.
To God be the Glory I run my own company now.
But before doing that I worked as a graduate trainee for a year,in which I was oportuned to witness so many projects.(Dangote,Bua,Plans,Nestle and co) I was then promoted to site engineer, project engineer and I left the company as a project manager.
one thing I know is that no individual will award a contract to you without some necessary documents been presented.
1.you don't have a registered company name.
2.No office address.
One thing is contract of this huge amount can not be paid into a personal account.

Don't know who this might help, but if you have a 1st class degree from Nigeria, certainly give this application a shot.
You might need to write IELTS to prove your English fluency. Check https://www.ielts.org/


Find the job at https://www.trafigura.com/careers/graduate-programmes/global-graduate-programme/?utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Trafigura+Global+graduate+opportunities+now+open&utm_content=Trafigura+Global+graduate+opportunities+now+open+CID_eb1c559333e1bb34f592e041b559c69f&utm_source=Campaign+Monitor+traking&utm_term=wwwtrafiguracomgraduate-global

Remember, only apply if you have a first class degree. Any course will do, but definitely try if you have a maths, economics, accounting, project management, supply chain/logistics, statistics or engineering/science degree.
One more thing. Please get your resumes done to a very high professional standard. Don't send that your same resume you used to apply to Baba Ijebu here.
Good luck everyone grin





Our two year graduate development programme is designed to provide you with a structured series of rotations across our core trading business in areas such as trade finance, operations, deals desk and analysis, with the potential to rotate into our mid and downstream supply and warehousing and logistics business’, ensuring that you have a comprehensive understanding of all areas of the business, opening up a future of unlimited opportunities within the Trafigura group.

As part of the 2 year programme you will have the opportunity to carry out one of three 8 month rotations in a different country to that of your initial application. 8 month rotations may include any of the following locations: Geneva, Johannesburg, Mumbai, Montevideo, Rio, Shanghai, Singapore.

The programme encourages an entrepreneurial attitude where participants are highly visible and are expected to create opportunities for themselves through exponential performance and networking.

You will be asked on application to indicate a (non committal) interest for a particular area: deals desk, operations, trade finance and analysis but will complete rotations across 3 areas before entering a chosen area, ensuring that on completion of the programme you enter your role with the full understanding of how each function operates and enhances the other in order to maximise profit potential for the group.
*We will ask you why at interview.

As with all employees within the Trafigura group, opportunities for exceptional talent are unlimited and employees can expect to spend time in several locations globally (including some more remote), throughout their development either within their teams, across departments and throughout their career. This ensures they are equipped with the increased cultural awareness and business development skills required for a long term, successful career.

It is worth noting that this is not a trading programme: Those looking to enter a commercial (‘front line trading/ business development’’) role should expect to spend several years within a department after completing the programme ‘mastering’ the product specific techniques and skills that will ensure their long term career, be it management or commercial, is enhanced to guarantee their full career potential.

A minimum requirement of a 2:1 / 3.4 GPA (or equivalent) in any discipline and fluent English is essential.
