Most of the so called women are Akunna.They use the owambe forum to execute their escapade and this gets the men frustrated with the feelings of betrayal.Perhaps the woman was brought from the village by them to the US and when they start working(Nurse) and mingling with other owambeish women they start flirting around

Ah at all mehn.
All my chopping was done at Lagos Island Cafe. I gbadun dat place.
I feel clubs are a waste of time so I usually do other things with my time. cheesy

Houston was fun because of the people I knew there, and the "naija-ness" of the environment which I have missed. The people there are also easier to talk to I think...at least compared to western Canada.

There's no place like South London in London Town.

That's where everything happens - the rest are still playing catch-up, trying to imitate us. But they can't see us! Just tell anyone you're from South London in London Town and watch how they'll rate you. wink

You need to come out here for South London hospitality

It is poverty!

Some of these women are nurses and make between $50K to $80k (double shifts and overtime) in a year. For them $80k is a lot of money, as in African Bill Gates. So they start harassing, disrespecting and cheating on their husbands. And as the saying goes "hell has no fury as a woman scorned" without remembering that "a woman scorned has no fury as a dejected husband with a gun who has nothing more to lose".

You got the picture? Those women forget that 6ft is 6ft until the inevitable happens. And the cycle continues....
