Una sabi each other...

What I know is make all terrorist and their supporters bomb together. Either Igbo, Awusa or Yoruba.

Abbeytoy:
He's bombing terrorists not you... Abi you dey among?

olasubomy:
I am not sure I understand you but no worries.

jjohndoe83:
I don't understand you. Someone comes here looking for someone to accomodate them. NOWHERE did they say they wanted free accomodation. An idiot, yes she's an idiot, then insinuates that they borrowed POF. I rebuke them for their unfounded insinuation and they double down while insulting me and I return their insult by just calling them an idiot (this is not a insult in fact because anyone who jumps to conclusions can be fittingly described as an idiot) and I'm the one you're coming after. Have you bothered to chastise them too?

And yes, I have no problem helping out random strangers. Thank you.

Good day everyone, I need to claim some funding that came in from my school. I was asked to put my bank details but I'm still in Nigeria. What do you advise

olasubomy:
I understand. I was writing about getting a place. Sure, you can book Airbnb from anywhere. Not many people coming to Canada know so much about how it works here, and it is just humane to communicate nicely with people. I don’t think asking the POF question was necessary to me, but hopefully, the moniker can sort out the accommodation issue

Felimax:
Respect, much respect! This comment of yours is legendary.

jjohndoe83:
You're just an idiot. You're using generalizations about others as the basis of your insinuation in a specific scenario for which you have no context at all. Isn't that the height of infantile reasoning?

So because there is a general problem of people borrowing POF, you believe that a question insinuating that this person borrowed POF (without any context about their specific situation) is a logical question? You're questioning whether someone committed immigration fraud based on their simple request for assistance? Something is surely wrong with you and it is my duty to point it out that your reasoning is subhuman.

Now that the person has explained why they're seeking for assistance, what other silly insinuation are you going to come up with?

olasubomy:
It is not that easy to get a place from outside Canada. You can book an Airbnb, as oluayebenz stated and start your aggressive search, and Kijiji and Facebook marketplace is your plug.

Just look for one affordable Airbnb within your budget, at least to have a roof over your head, then search from there. It gives you opportunity to inspect what you would renting.

Rents are paid first of every month and most rents kickstart first of the month. Plan your schedule to checkout of your Airbnb at the end of a month.

All the best with your search.

Grandma should be around 55years minimum and above,so getting a visa from canada to usa should not be a big deal,moreso super visa are allow to live in canada up to 5 years at a go. And it one in a million situation a person crossing into usa from canada illegally.

Afolavid:
Personally, I can sponsor a spouse PR from Nigeria and all that as long as she's worth it, no issues at all but flipping the switch, I'll NEVER allow any girl to do that for me, even when I was poor and seem hopeless, I don't take favors from girls, it'll most likely hunt you back. Most of the guys I know and I've heard of, that were sponsored by a Nigerian lady later developed Ear problems or mental imbalance from the regular "after all the things I did for you" song... Abeg ooh. If your guy can get his PR by himself, he should put efforts and try to, it'll save him from any unforeseen circumstances. Peace!

temmitats:
I think she actually dodged a bullet, I really hope you find peace too, it can’t be normal to think like this.

temmitats:
Okay look for another victim, since she didn’t fall

einsteino:
It is alright if she doesn't want to sponsor a man for whatever fears/reasons she might have, we all have those. So long as she doesn't wake up someday and blame it all on men, then that seems perfectly okay to me.

Its the growing trend of making men the fall guy for women's woes that disgusts me. I have met several ladies in Canada that start sentences with "Why are you guys not blah blah..." or "You Toronto guys are this and that", all the while I am standing there thinking you barely even know me. Then a few minutes into what is often the most illogical conversation, you realize she is partly responsible for her ordeal. When you provide honest answers she gets combative because it isn't soothing. It is just convenient for her to believe it is all our doing. These struggles are not exclusive to women, guys do have challenges in the pool here too. We just seem to be better at quietly rising to the occasion or coming to terms with what is within reach. Some of us do choose to die alone too than get married to what is out there! When a guy is having a hard time with women, it is his fault. When women are having a hard time with men, y'all make it the men's fault. Oh men have low self esteem, they are threatened by women, men are of such poor quality, women don't want to be in unhappy marriage blah blah. Please own your struggles, that's all I ask! Me wey be say I dey see how e dey be for some of my guys wey dey married for here, wey dey even make me thank God say I single. Na only for social media all married man dey happy and seem to have a wife who is a blessing, when you draw body na oppo, and high tension. Cos men no dey wan loud matters, e come be like say na only we bad? Abegi.

There are many reasons why finding your preferred husband/wife or any at all in Canada or the diaspora at large can be challenging (I can write a whole page based on my lived experience here). You either make the necessary concessions and re-adjustments or you hold to your gun and make your peace with the probable outcomes. I actually belong to the latter group but you don't see me blaming not having my pick of the litter on a lack of decent/marriageable Nigerian women.

There are tough conversations to be had in our culture and community that could help our single men and women better get along, and overall yield better outcomes, there is no doubt about that. However, that's never going to happen and if it does we would not change because we are an obstinate bunch. So, let's continue casting aspersions and deluding ourselves, like our men are women are completely different animal species rather than sexes.

temmitats:
You’re funny o, you knew she was smoking and had knife-fight stories and still introduced her to your friend. It’s obvious your plan was to take advantage of her and she didn’t fall for it.

einsteino:
Those few single ladies must be really few or unattractive. Frankly, I have personally met quite a number out there that have me cackling. I wouldnt want to burn my time talking about the obvious but it doesnt even matter who is right or wrong. This is the one thing that I dont advise anyone on. Make every come and live out their convictions. Afterall no be me go help them cope with the outcomes. Life na per head.

It is fine to die single, its not a crime. So long as that is a choice one is happy with. Quite frankly, even some married people today would die single. So me no send who dey lonely or single or not.

What I personally take issue with is folks blackmailing guys with labels. As though we are somehow responsible for the inability of Nigerian ladies finding "decent guys". Last I checked, Nigerians are a minority here. If we are not decent, then they should please marry other nationalities. Afterall, say we come from the same country no mean say we dey betrothed to each other.

Men and women are free to create whatever standards they desire of a partner. Lets forget standards sef. In my experience, the actual problem is does the type of guy you want, want your type of woman? Get past that first. Lord knows there are decent men marrying every now and then in this Canada. I personally have many friends that have in the last 3 years.

You can write up a contract with any terms you fancy but you can not force anyone to sign it. Let alone one that only exploits them esp if they are better served elsewhere. Too many "me, me, all about me" out there and what is astounding is that they dont even notice it. Many atimes, they would rather pass the buck to us. Just like you would never find them ever say any of their past breakup was their fault. It is always somehow men's.

Again, if there are no decent Nigerian men, are Nigerian men the only men in Canada? Or are all the men of other nationalities also not decent? When Nigerian men(esp newly landed guys or guys yet to get a professional job) cant get a nigerian girl to take them seriously, they bite the bullet and go date/marry non Nigerians. No noise, no passing the buck. Same way when folks feel the pool here is too small to give them the exact type of lady they fancy, they go home to marry. Is it not the same permanent resident card that the guys have, our ladies have? Or does the pr card of women forbid them from going home to marry someone?

Dont even act like its a convenient choice for men. The total cost of going home to marry someone and sponsoring her pr, supporting her to find her foot here is downpayment foe a house in some Canadian cities. Mind you its also men that stand a greater risk of being ruined by marriage in Canada(Heck even Canadian men rarely marry these days). Yet, nigerian men take the more torturous route rather than have the ready made here, rather than label the women here. You really think all the men choosing to do that are not decent and do it for no reason?

Them no exile anybody come Canada, if e tire pesin make e go Naija or any country wey e feel say decent men/women dey in abundance.

We have to believe that the rain will stop. My point is about the principle. If such tax is to be collected let it be domiciled where it is collected and if it is to be stolen let it be stolen locally rather than in Abuja

marenalexander7:
Nigeria is an heterogeneous nation, and anyone who seeks to govern her must include that politics of inclusiveness. No law was written concerning Muslims and Christians occupying the number one seat. But for the importance of equity, fairness and justice. Any person seeking for the office of the president that put religion aside doesn't respect the politics of inclusiveness. The big issue here and I know Muslims especially from the northern will not and will never accept
1. A Christian taking over from Christian after eight years of Christian.
2. A Christian/Christian ticket after a Christian have served for eight years as a president
So those saying religion should be put aside are nothing but sycophants who support it because it is in their favor. Should have a rethink.

aribisala0:
Well I was thinking long term and constitutionally not just about today but in terms of resource control

aribisala0:
My issue is why should this tax go to the FG and not the states
