toshmann:Hahaha Nah mehn. I am one of those naija kids their parents brought home as a teenager to get primary and secondary school education. I visit home every other year and I identify with my peeps the most. Many naijas are lost here though, mostly the ones that have family members living in states. |

toshmann: Houston is the lowest of the lows. Too many freaking Nigerians. If you call a taxi/cab, chances are that it will be a Nigerian and in few cases, Senegalese. Too many Nigeria prostitutes competing with Akata around. For fun, go to Legends on Richmond Avenue. The real sh.it starts around 12midnight. Nigerians there know the Nigeria runz girls and will gladly give you their numbers if you need company(?). God forbid bad thing! Houston is just a clean version of Lagos. Chilled there for 1 week. No need of 18hrs flight to get the Nigeria feeling. |

bootlegaz:Yeah I know. I'm not paying any money online. I find where I like I'll go visit the place, if I dot like the place or if my spirit doesn't feel comfy with the dealers/agents I'm out. I'm also using rent.com and apartment.com So no worries. Cheers for caring |

InvertedHammer:Bros with all said sha Houston is the bomb to live in almost all the big cities in the US especially considering the environment and weather.Only few cities in the US can be compared to the place especially when you are feeling home sick you will always have peeps to visit |
Re: Nigerians In Diaspora: What Do You Miss Most About Home? by InvertedHammer: 9:06pm On May 24, 2013 |
toshmann: As if Nigerians understand "illegal" when owo is involved. Na runz thing is en vogue over there. U know...as in A knows B that knows C that knows D. ..Then the hook up. They don't need girlfriends in Houston..not when you have $50 big booty girls around. I tire for that city. |

toshmann: you have a odd taste in woman, from Chinese babe you shift to tattoo babe |
Re: Nigerians In Diaspora: What Do You Miss Most About Home? by InvertedHammer: 9:09pm On May 24, 2013 |
Diasporan: True talk! But too many Nigerians in one place comes with its attendant issues: Envy, jealousy,scam, fraud,drugs,divorce, adultery, snitching, etc. Am surprised jazz/otumokpo and poisoning have not been added to the list. |
Re: Nigerians In Diaspora: What Do You Miss Most About Home? by toshmann(m): 9:12pm On May 24, 2013 |

I definitely miss suya, especially chicken suya. That is the first thing I will order for when I visit Naija again. I miss the lively and crazy Lagos!!! Despite all the wahala, you always just enjoy the city, full of life, hustle and bustle and fun. Even if you take commercial buses to work, there are things to talk about, people to talk to alongside the ever unfolding drama. In the UK, everybody just reads a newspaper or book or e-book on the train or tube. Dead silence all the time. No one talks to nobody, even to sing sef, you go look round. You get funny looks like you are a nuisance Everybody just stays indoors. You can't go and knock at a friend's place without notice. In Naija, people come to visit you and ''pass by''whether or not you are expecting them. Can't believe how much I miss those things now. But, that does not mean I want to go back sha I never ready to face NEPA, traffic, bad roads, thief, bribery etc One day e go better |

REALITY101: If you live in the US and feel like you're missing anything about Nigeria, time for you to relocate to Houston Texas. Nigeria community much.. Too many African food store and restaurant, incase you miss their whooo loudness, go to some Nigeria events/parties. Gala dey Houston ? |
