Unfortunately you and your parents acted like the average Nigerian, una go see people wey don go the same route face obstacles and challenges yet una go believe say e no fit happen to una.

If your parents actually studied the data and saw the writings on the wall, they would have either come up with extra funds for you to attend private university or fund your jaapa journey and if hey couldn't do either, they could have at least gave you a reality check!

Even if 9ja didn't alter your plans, ogbeni which jobs did you think were waiting when you eventually graduated? DEY PLAY!

varicose veins. Fortunate na for hand u get am. If na for leg, e for stress u too much cos u use your legs all d time

Make una try to dey fact check before commenting, E GET WHY! These are not varicose but bulging veins, they're generally harmless and primarily exists due to genetics or strength training. Na wa o

Is this supposed to be a joke? Death may be inevitable, but it always stings the bereaved, regardless. Not everything should be on camera. They may even end up dying before their grandpa.

Not at that age, once my grandpa passed 80, na him dey remind us how he wants to be buried and so on, death only stings if you've not lived a fulfilled life!

That grandpa will relish these moments because to him seeing his grandchildren means he's the mosst blessed man in the world, the grandchildren have bonded with grandpa to be able to play at such level, grandpa is chill unlike some uptight people wey bitterness wan finish

My guy is in USA over 12 years now ...no papers

If your guy narrates all the shit he's been through, you might weep for your guy, his eyes don see wonders

The problem is not encouraging or discouraging but setting unrealistic expectations. Many young folks jaapa with the hope of making it big only to come to the realization that they've just signed up for a life of struggle. For example, you made it to the US, you no get papers, you no get skills yet you want to compete with the Latinos wey sabi hustle underground, AS HOW?

For UK, you came with sponsorship but work no dey, now you're at the mercy of someone shady that you'll be paying just to keep your papers active....NO BE JUJU BE THAT?

Some European counties, you no sabi their language, you mistakenly enter wahala and now you're rotting in jail or you made it to Russia and found yourself signing up for their military where na you dem go use test the front line in a war.....JESU!

Even those in the US wey jamb one akata or whitey, it still takes years to have the proper papers and meanwhile you don give am belle, even if you got your papers, you're at the mercy of child support until the kid turns 18, for women you might end up sleeping with different men before getting your papers or you might find yourself stuck working under the tables until Trump's people send your ass to Bolivia or some unknown country.

All in All, if you must jaapa do so with SENSE! Be prepared, have a plan, have some funds that can last you a year minimum and know which countries are favorable to immigrants and which ones sees you as a TABOO....May the gods favor us all!

Notice they didn't call him Igbo or Yoruba, when it comes to crime and bad news, all Nigerians suffer the same reputational damage but una mumu brothers and sisters continue to crucify one another all in the name of tribe and/or religion......DO BETTER!

No, Not stealing from Oga,but Wise business acumen.

They're smart and pushful. It's not stealing.

Stealing is when they don't remit the cost price to Oga.

Clearly you're not a business person, so you're saturating the market and limiting oga's profit potential, you believe it is okay as long as he gets his normal profits and this is why many Nigerians never build generational wealth. If I employed you and I gain a profit of 10% per product but there's a potential to gain 20% and you hide it from me, na armadioha I go send to you o

Kewekubosineh:
They inflate prices when selling to the customer.

It's the difference in price they pocket. They don't remit the difference. For instance,good to be sold for N10k. They could push the price for N15k. The N5k difference goes to his pocket.

You now understand?

Basically stealing from the oga, typical

Kewekubosineh:
It's real.

Go to Aba, Nnewi, Onitsha and Awka, you will see Nwa Boi(Servants) doing very well. Richer than Bank Managers.

There is money in the East.

Na lie, you no go see any legit ones with that kind of money, either they are stealing from the main boss or they're into some shady shit!

IbnB:
There's always that one viewpoint..

There are many viewpoints, most of yall just lack the necessary IQ or exposure!

zinaunreal:
Should be a compliment but it's not because he compared him to other evil people he has met

That's like ritualist calling another ritualist more evil, credibility is lost . Like pastor wey dem catch wey bury cow for inside church ground come dey talk about another pastor wey dey use jazz, no be madness be that?

zinaunreal:
Trump was described by Epstien as the most evil person he has ever met

That should be a compliment, if devil dey fear you, are you not its kryptonite? If Epstein had called him the nicest person he's ever met, na that one be real problem

The end is near, come midterms he would have little to no power left, the Democrats will control both legislative chambers and almost a 100% chance they'll try to impeach him. At the very least, they won't fund his immigration agenda thereby rendering him useless!

Bonapart:
Skipping lunch you mean?

If you like skip lunch and dinner, if you don't observe and practice the other elements of ramadan, na ofutufete!

If you're broke wetin concern you and woman? Your priority should be survival, even if you get extra change na to think how that change can grow through proper investments. Even something as simple as learning a new skill could raisse your income by over 1000% if you learn the right skills.

Brokeness/poverty is a state, anyone can fall into it but to stay there and accept defeat, that is a CHOICE.....A very useless CHOICE!

There is a reason a man is the bread winner. You can never have those times u put up there. We deceive ourselves a lot in this country. Men and women responsibilities in the home are different and are meant to complement each other. It is pure evil for one to take the advantage of the other. If I'm always on the field looking for daily bread and u have the advantage to be in the home with the children, the woman should not take advantage. Is it that difficult?

Maybe it's time to wake up and smell the coffee, women are working just as much as men in advanced societies, it is only in a zoo like 9ja that men still believe women don't work and even at that, there's a growing population of Nigerian women who are actually the breadwinners of their household.....E go shock you say most have been covering up for their nonentity husbands!

This one just wan put her mates for trouble....Come back where? At least in America na physical battle but 9ja, make I no talk too much

Jayhome24:
Hahahaahahaha so you know all these and you are asking for dollars bet?

So you want to show you are in US ba? I know your type.

No I didn't know, I just logged into my Escrow account and saw the limitation, no biggie!

Jayhome24:
Yes let's go for it.

You will learn a lesson...

Oya su Mitchell your details and submit my details in that your escrow. Let's go.

You think I'm one for those you can scare with dollar? I dey spend am, spend Euro and pounds you go embarrass yourself I swear...

How I wish I can see you face to face then you will understand.

Just looked it up, Escrow does not allow transactions over 30 days and you no dey inside US wey we fit run am using local third party....$1000 na small change na, so I don't understand where the embarrassment wan come from

Jayhome24:
Malema is 100% correct and I can says t with all boldness Trump will break record to be the first US president who will leave office and straight to jail this is sure.

Are you willing to bet, put your money where your mouth is, we can start small, how about 1k dollars? We can use Escrow.....You must to learn a lesson

Most Nairalanders are either comedians or genuinely dumb, guidelines for repayment is normal with any loan and if you signed for a loan without reading the terms and conditions then you don't deserve to be a functional member of society!

Those of you who framed it as free money, your eyes go clear now. There's no such thing as free money, government backed education loans must be paid back, whether you graduated or not, whether you found a job or not, it must be paid back!

ceejay80s:
Oga go and have sit,
U are comparing an old man who wears only pant to sing on tv and his lady dancers who wear only pant to dance and comparing him to WizKid?
I don't give a sh*t about WizKid or fela,
My children will not watch a man singing naked and smoking indian hemp on national tv and U tell me it's music,
During the olden days most of our parent told us not to watch or listen to fela song

It's cute that you genuinely believe you have influence over what your kids will listen to once they turn to a teenager or adult......Very cute, ignorance is bliss even if na lamba

Na Osimhen hold them legs make dem no fit score penalty? Oliseh dey craze, without Osimhen that team would not get that far, it's like having prime CR7 on your team and asking him not to dictate to teammates.....Are you alright?

anonimi:
Which America are you talking about here?

The one that is filled with almajiri children who are deliberately uneducated by leaders looters who steal the money that should employ well paid teachers for their free education?

The America where governors increase TAXES and other revenue generating burdens on the public without employing well paid civil servants to make ordinary water available for every household?

Is this the 300 million population America that you are comparing with our Nigeria of 200 million people?

Your point? I can change America to Syria, Iran, North Korea, Pakistan if it makes you feel better!

ADAMUdaCOWBOY:
Pray for God to pity and forgive you for the nonsense you just said. Humans have a will that even God respects. If a child decides to be wayward, it is not guaranteed that there is anything the father can do about it. Good people end up with terrible kids and that is why we have the phrase "black sheep of the family".

So when he plucked out the eyes of his sister and killed her, why didn't the father voice out? Why was he not arrested since? LEave God out of this, inaction is just another form of enablement, if na America, the father would have eliminated him long ago!

Inept government always looking for a scapegoat, make una leave our Igbo brothers and sisters alone, even if na just one Christian life lost due to bandits and other terrorists, that's one too much....A sane country values all lives irrespective of tribe, religion or political affiliation!

esnbrutality:
Na wetin CNN tell you abi?

No na wetin living here for almost 2 decades have taught me, as a Trump voter myself, the writing is on the wall!

Relax guys, things are playing out the way they're supposed to. The Republicans will lose the midterm, Trump becomes a lame duck president and all that tarriff bullshit goes away by 2028. The people of the United States needed to witness this chaos in order to appreciate the next president.....CALM DOWN CALM DOWN......Tactics ni

We4all:
There is nothing wrong in comparing Wizkid to Fela. Fela was great in his time, and Wizkid is the rave of the moment right now.

I'm not a fan of either, but saying Wizkid only sings about women, while celebrating Fela is the height of hypocrisy. Fela was a morally bankrupt musician who used his craft to promote nudity and sex.

Morally bankrupt according to what? The westernized standards or the traditional belief system? His ancestors married many wives and walked around in nudity but all that aside, we are talking about his music not his lifestyle! Know the difference and come back here to tell us how Fela's music and Wizzy's own resemble!

Trump has nothing to lose, US laws are clear, he can't contest again and midterm is around the corner where the Dems will take back control of the legislative branch, so Trump must do all he can now to achieve his agenda. This one no be 9ja where yu don't fulfill the campaign promises of your base, Trump genuinely believes in what he campaigned on, apart from the economy, this whigga is doing exactly what he said
