My grouse is even with the term 'infested' as if nigerians were rats or worse still some parasitic organisms, or lower life forms.

please the topic should read 'why are there so many Nigerians in Peckham'?

Lets stop denigrating our roots!

Peckham is a dirty mark on the city, nothing more nothing less.

The truth is Nigerians in Peckham do live like lower life forms in Peckham and south London, in fact half of them don't officially exist in London society because they're illegal. People back in the village where they have the most basic of things look 30x better than those in Peckham.

Some people just need not open their mouth before you know they are mentally maladjusted, How can you conclude that everybody living in Peckham are Illegal?

So mr ezeagu, where does it say half of the people in Peckkam are illegal immigrant? I meant most people that live in Peckham are british citizen, you knw why, people coming in newly have heard stories abt peckham and wont even think of getting accommodation there.
So, the steadfast ones have been there since ages past and wont leave for anywhere.

Nothing do Pecham, Brixton, Camberwell et all, at least people who leave there are happy, no fuss,but London is just too expensive. What you get for $10 in USA cost 10 pound in London with 1pound = $1.7 you are paying almost double for same goods and services.

Newsflash! Of course we know about the exchange rate.

I doubt that the bolded part is true, London is a city that diversity is truly embraced if not even encouraged

Don't mind Sefagao. The Dude thinks the U.K's race relations is comparable to U.S where racial & ethnic tensions is a daily occurence.

London is the best place to live in if that is the only place u have lived in i guess. I have lived in london- for sometime and also other places. London does not top the list mate. And its not just because of peckham

That's your opinion and that does not necessarily count. I wouldn't live in Paris if paid me but that does not count either because it makes top 20

No need to try and decipher what is good about London or Milwaukee. Just pointing out that anyone can come up and say that their city is better. I don't live in Milwaukee either. London is actually a city I love visiting. Won't live in Brixton, Peckham, Barking, Hackney, all them dodgy areas either.

Nah mate. London is definitely not the only place I have lived in. I've also lived and holidayed in other parts of the world.

London might not top your list but it sure tops many peeps list.

Not everyone can say with a straight face that their city is the best.
I however can see your point of view when you say u won't live in some of those areas cuz I too won't live in Most rough/ghetto areas in the U.S.

Re: When Did Peckham (In London) Get Annexed By Nigeria? by Theblessed(f): 1:58am On Nov 13, 2009
[b]Hmmm! Perhaps, you don't realise that Peckham has always been a black zone and will always be.  And with Brixton a stone throw away, with its increased black population, the area will always remain unkept. Why??  Politics plays a big part!  After all, its mainly black people that live there and who cares if its derelict?

But, why moan and complain about the area when you can always move out? The problem is that, most of the black people there are frightened of the unknown and that could be the reason they chose to bury their heads in London.  Look, you'd be much happier when you EXPLORE to find out the real people you came to visit.  Living among your own in a foreign land is like revolving around the culture you left behind in Nigeria yet, nothing had changed and nothing developed. It means, you just left Nigeria whilst still in Nigeria. But why leave home in the first place if that's how short-sighted you are?

Personally, I dislike London! It is a place where everyone is matching on top of each other - you don't even have a space to breath without bumping into someone/something and without the neighbours next door eavesdropping into your conversations with your family/friends as the walls are so thin. 

So get out and learn about other areas of this country, learn about the people you actually came to visit - the English, the Scottish, the Welsh, the Irish etc and stop burying your heads in those your little cramp one/two bedroom flats. That way, you get to know the BRITISH as you don't really know them when you are stuck in one place watching British television every weekend.

So get out of that place, and get some FRESH AIR IN YOUR LUNGS/SOMETHING decent in the Country or go back home and stop MOANING!

"@poster , very useless topic, You made a video of peckham market ,, and did you also make any video of the residential areas in the seemingly dirty peckham?, And for God's sake its a market!We get fish, meat,crab,snails and you name it fresh from peckham. without peckham london would be pointless. Granted it isnt the best of sites., what is your business about whether its infested with Nigerians.
I think your stupidity overshadowed your common sense and your topic should have been :'why do many Nigerians leave their motherland where the roads are bad,no water,no job, no good health service , no security while our leaders gulp billions of naira.?'
well I am sure you know the answer to that!"


well stated, ty for that
