Ive got my G in U.S... he left some months back. He js the one tht bombards me with calls and keeps insistinf Nigeria is Useless and hopeless! He is d reason ive applied to study abroad for my masters...never really liked abroad but cos of his persistence, wanna give it a try. My point is, a G will always be a G....forget yankee or no yankee. Dont even greet them and when they knoe u cant call to beg for cash, Ur relationship will be smooth

the environment has so bastardized our collective psyche such that people celebrate what shouldn't ordinarily be celebrated.

Some admin of some SM group act as if they have made it in life likewise some mods.

Some pickers and dealers carry this arrogant air too.

At the same time, people travel abroad and think they have made it in life.

That's why people are easily scam with the "I'm calling from abroad trick"

My broda just keep on hustling and praying....and stop worrying yourself. He will turn around and try to contact you someday.




I only look up to God.

The truth is that these guys were close in Nigeria. Before his friend traveled he got some favour in form of his Friend's shoes and suit. I think its unfair of him to act that way, no matter what he's going thorough.

Two months and you are already hyped because he sent money to a non significant person.
When will u guys change.
This is exactly the reason they block u guys or refuse to call.
I'm still waiting for that person that will just end it in exchanging pleasantries.

At two months the guy may not have started work.
The sis is still taking care of him. Sis is yet to recoup back money spent.
You didn't actually help him from your heart.
U helped him with the intention of gaining and was taken aback when he gave something to his girlfriend first before you.

Go and buy another shoe or jacket and stop sounding like an immature kid.

See sense of entitlement already bc you gave him shoe and jacket.


Leave them baba, i dont think people understand how tough life can be in the UK.
Yes you earn a lot of money ( but the mistake people make is that you are not earning this in Naira, everyone is easy to do the conversion for you 500 Naira to £1, so if you earn £1,000 every month which is the minimum wage, suddenly you have 500,000 Naira in your Nigerian Bank account.

What takes the £1,000 away, they dont care and they dont wish to know, even if you explain to them, they are unbothered.

Life anywhere abroad is hard. It is hard because bills are expensive and therefore consume up to 50 percent of anyone earnings. Once this happens the remaining that is left is what the person would wish to use to enjoy his life too in the UK or anywhere abroad too. Even Primark that sells cheap clothes, there isnt much quality things you can buy there. Typical shopping might cost about a £1,000.

Even if you later even decide to go to other discout shops like Lidl or Aldl to buy food, its still the same ( Typical £20 here £30 there ) The £1000 you earn in that month is gone.

Now please people of God, imagining after all of these, someone from Nigeria asks you to send money to them. From what again ?

This is what people in Nigeria fail to understand, people abroad change cos there are just about BROKE as you, and im 100 percent being serious with you.

If im lieing God should punish me
If the girl fucck around like u said, is it your biz?

The funniest thing is they only disturb you when they need your help... desist from bothering them with messages (forget they exist) and keep doing your thing, you’d be surprised when they start calling to do this and that for them.

There was this brother of mine who is my landlord then during my school days. He told me he needed to travel out of the country, though his junior sister stays in London, he wanted to use that influence to travel out.

The day came when he is about going, he got his visa, he showed me and he said to me if he gets there that he will not disappoint me that I should not worry ...

Though he is managing too, his sister sent him money for travelling and processing of the visa. He told me to dash him my suit and winter coat also one of my shoe of which I did. He is very local and not sociable.. It was the suit I gave him and my shoe he wore to UK.

When he got to UK, two Months later I heard that he sent money to his girlfriend and that one is just fuckinng around.

Fastfoward to this time i sent him messages on Facebook just to say hi and to know hope he is doing well. He did not reply but he saw my messages. Llater again I resend him message he told me that he will block me. He pretended as if he doesn't know me. This is the brother that do borrow Maggie and salt whenever he wants to cook or even beg me for soup.....

My intention is to greet him not demanding money from him. But now is it a crime to say hello because you stay in UK or Yankee? I don't know why people staying abroad always change their attitude whenever they travel out of the country.....

The truth is you guys bother them too much.

2 months might be premature for one to act the way you've described but it is quite scary how many of you act.

Should he get on Facebook, within minutes, sometimes seconds, he'll get pings and buzzes.

Most times, it's all about what he can send to the "friend".

Very true

That’s because they made plans without checking with the realities of those already living abroad. Sometimes we sit here and do the maths because someone wrote somewhere that the moment you enter Yankee, your life don change finish. People believe this stories so much they fail to plan before leaving Nigeria thereby finding it hard to settle down abroad but as dem don make mouth for you before them travel nko? Na to hide face o my brother!!!!

Mostly, it’s not the fault of the person oversees, it is the nature of the place that has made him go mute.

Lesson: Always look before you leap. The price of ignorance sometimes could cost you some real good relationships.

You called this person a friend and even brother. Do you do favors for your friends or family in expectation of a reward? The guy might actually be living a hellish life abroad and might even end up borrowing money just to send to his GF because that is where all his hopes lies. Just thank God you are not the type to depend on a friend before you survive!
