glitest: In the U.S.A you can be anything you want to be if you're willing to work hard . That's not the case in Nigeria, success in Nigeria is 100% dependent on connections and greasing the palms of officials. 1 Like |

With a threat like that she may be jeopardizing her chance of becoming a Canadian citizen. Westerners are not as sentimental as Africans. They are not going to congratulate her for what she said or reward her with citizenship, instead they are more likely to think that she would also burn a Canadian passport if things didn't go well for her in Canada. It reminds me of the Afghans who, seeking to put pressure on Australia to offer them asylum, threatened to toss their children overboard into the sea. The Australians responded by saying that they were not going to offer asylum to humans wicked enough to murder their own children. Nobody trusts a traitor. 1 Like |

Personally, I don't blame that girl for saying what she did, I'd probably have said worse in similar circumstances. Let's be honest, Nigeria's a mess. The same Customer Service attitude the average Nigerian worker has in Nigeria is transported cross continent. Rude, obnoxious, indifferent. The Nigerian High Commission in London is just as bad. Forget about that false sense of patriotism - Nigeria sucks! And until we can admit that, Nigeria will never get better. A country where nothing works. Is it any wonder that poor girl was so frustrated? She'd be more than justified if she reduced her Nigerian passport to a pile of ashes! 5 Likes |

Nigerian High Commission Staff members are the same the world over. Dress up monkeys with the most expensive clothing and jewelries in this world, they are still ANIMALS and would eternally behave like subhumans--that's precisely what Nigerian High Commission Officers are. The last time I was at the Nigerian High Commission Office in London, a lady flew in from Belfast wanting a new passport because only few pages were left unused on her existing passport. She was denied this request and asked to come back when all the pages had been used up. Needless to say she was alarmed and rained abuses and curses upon them. It's a PAIN being a Nigerian in 21st century CE. 2 Likes |

Just so the picture is clearer, flying from Calgary to Toronto takes about 3hrs 30 mins. By train it will take you 2days,10hrs and 22mins (No go slow oo)and to Ottawa will definitely take longer. CAD1,000 is approximately N160,000 and the distance is farther than twice that between any two points in Nigeria so when you pay all that money and probably sacrifice wages for being out of office, it isn't really a pleasant situation to be in seeing it's all for nothing. When I become Canadian, I will not burn my Nigerian passport but i'm not sure who would enjoy going through the process. How many people get their passports seamless even in Nigeria? We need to channel this energy to correcting the issues with Nigerian Embassies and Nigeria as a whole. I'd be going to the same embassy in November to renew my passport, I hope things will be positively different then. 1 Like |
