The biggest requirement for a job in Britain in 2024 is ability to drive and your driving license. Most employees you meet require it and it is a scarce commodity there as compared to Nigeria.

This is false. Stop the cap. It is a requirement for certain jobs, not getting a job

I posted it for investors basically or those that wants second property
Somebody like me is a property investor so I rather buy lots of cheap houses and pay stamp duty than buy one house for high price cos I mostly buy auction with cash. Just brought it here do other cash investors can tap in. The return 40k house will give you here is bigger than what 100 million naira house will give you in naija cos you can rent 50k hpuse our fo 6k pounds per year but you can't rent 100 million house out 12 million per year in naija and most of those auction houses already have tenants paying rent

I'd like you to share more on auctioning. How does one get started, what are the things to look out for rtc

Jannyfranc:
Hello everyone,is it possible to withdraw visa application for dependant you have paid both IHS and Visa application. Reason is to correct error in the form,then fill it again?please direct me on the process involved.

Your visa application fees would not be refunded. Only your IHS fees would be refunded.

If you have money do another application. The most recent application would override your previous one. You'll get refunded in full for the previous application.

South Africans are abusing you people, Nigerians are here insulting themselves. You guys are more stewpid than the South Africans sef

Stupidity

Yet the same bible says "Money answereth all thing"

cococandy:
This exactly. Penny pinching and scraping for decades with nothing real to show for it. And for what?

The people living above their so called means enjoyed life while at it, traveled the world , enjoyed luxury cars, lived in great neighborhoods and their kids enjoyed fine things of life from childhood. No be suffer head.

In the end both of them will most likely die at approximately the same age. One would have got out of life what God created the earth for. For human Enjoyment. And the other would have started trying to live fully when his bones are weak and joints are stiff.

That is if neither of them died in their youth.

Like someone said up there, money is a tool. Use it to improve your life.
First acquire an important skill or the necessary education that ensures that money will always come then go out there and live life. For goodness’ sake!

There is no problem with hustling. The problem is focusing on the hustle and not seeing the bigger picture.

It is poverty mentality that makes Nigerians focus on hustling when they get abroad. They forget money is a tool to have a better quality of life. Nigerians remember the money part, but forget about ye quality of life part. On your death bed you would cherish the memories and experince iver the money you amassed. Even your children would remember you through memories you created with them not houses you built. Physical wealth is finite and would fade. That house you are building will either be sold or go to ruins. Use money to increase your opportunities and improve the quality of your life. Nigerians don't get this

Which hair you dey plait with £200 for UK? Calm down with the lamba

Botragelad:
What's propaganda about reporting on something that's actually happened?

Muslim gangs, made up of Muslims, are folks committing terrorist acts like grooming young girls, stabbings, and all sorts of other crimes. They're almost everywhere in the UK, so take your nonsense elsewhere. We're not having your deception here.

What about British people who have burnt down hotel, stabbed blacks, looted shops and libraries? One side reportage

Salewa97:
This is huge! Kamala is really making waves in the swing states.

I mean, it’s about time someone stepped up and challenged the narrative. The momentum is clearly shifting in her favor, and it feels like the electorate is finally tuning in.

With the right strategy and grassroots support, she might just flip those states. It’s going to be interesting to see how the campaign evolves from here, but I have a strong feeling she’s on the right track!

Arm chair theories

plaetton:
Lol.
The religious mind is too opaque to understand and and appreciate artistic expression.
The question is: why are peactioners of religion always so sensitive and nervous around art and artistic expression?
They are sensitive and nervous around philosophical questions and expression.
They are sensitive and nervous about scientific inquiries and expression of scientific knowledge.

Religion, itself, is the real mocker of the human intellect and artistic expression.

If I want to give you poison, I wouldn't present it in a bottle labelled 'poison'. I would prepare your favourite dish, sprinkle it with poison and present it to you.

A true artist understands the symbolic meaning of an art

Flamemignon1:
Because science has evolved and realized it's a natural sexual orientation

Science 'evolved' to tell people about their sexuality? Was it science that told people about heterogeneous sexuality in the first place?

The same science which we were told to trust during COVID?

There are many articles and documentaries on how science has been corrupted by politicians and big corporations for monetary gains. I suggest you read up.

Lexusgs430:
If bought with a view of long term investments..... No panic..... 😂

Sure!

Lexusgs430:
Be prepared for a long term hold ....... I believe $NVDA would hit over $500 per share........😂😜

NVDA is overbought and has run it's course. It expect it drop below $100

Flamemignon1:
20% of gen z's identify that way because it's normal to come out now without hate or thinking your life will be over. Back in the day, it wasn't accepted as you will be a social pariah, that's what you people don't get when you bring up this argument

You are still emphasizing my point. Why is it accepted now?

mrvitalis:
Gay is not a character you learn

Why would anyone want to get gay when they can be straight

So why do we have an increasing number of young people identifying as gay. The younger the population the increase in proportion. Soap still dey your eye.

mrvitalis:
I hate when ignorant people talk like they know what's up

Homosexuality exists in every single specie on earth

I feel it's one of nature way of population control

I don't hope to have a Gay son... But if I do I would make sure he lives his life and protect him from people like u

What is the word for homosexulity in your local language since you think it exists in every single species on earth?

mrvitalis:
I don't there is anything a gay man would do that would make a straight man turn gay ... How does tht makes any sense?

Maybe you have always been bisexual and suppressing it

They are not targeting you, but are targeting your kids. 20% of Gen Zs already identify as lesbians and homos. This proportion would increase in the next generation. It's a long term plan that needs to be nipped in the bud

diamond68:
first question - bro it’s port harcourt not Lagos. Even in lekki a 15 million Naira apartment is over the top talk less of port harcourt

Second question ? It’s poverty mentality that makes you think being a tenant is a bad thing. Once you have lived abroad and your mind has opened you will see the benefits of renting which are

1- you are not responsible for the upkeep and maintenance of the building

2- anytime you get bored of the area you can rent somewhere else after a year

3 - you have more liquid cash for high profit investments because rent is cheap. You have like 400 million Naira sitting in your account that you would have used to build a house. With that much liquid cash you can do all kinds of business

4- if the house burns down it’s not your property

Abeg stop the cap. How can you be sitting on cash that would lose value due to inflation? If you buy a house you build equity. You can sell and move. Besides will you be renting house till your old age?

flokii:
Blo0dy opportunist.. same way he sang Tinubu you don hit my car gbese repete.

A talentless musician singing rubbish.

Na PBAT dey allow una sha.. try this during Buhari era and see if they won't forget you in jail.

That was Tony Tetuila

SeniorGee:
Nope, I earned my yearly salary in 2weeks. If you're not lazy, you will make it. Nothing like menial jobs, there is dignity of labour here. Its challenging but you can do it...

Are you spending the money in Naira? Better step up and do a better job

ReubenE:
Those terrorists just want their land to be reduced to a parking lot.
Small water wey dem on for dem yesterday now to save dem from dry throat, dem don start again.
Pray for Gaza pray for Gaza but Hamas is still shooting rockets from Gaza. Maybe they are hoping on Iran to save them.

Iran that's a joke. Their top military general was light up in broad day light like a common criminal. What did they do, they made noise of retaliation for over a week. When they finally did, they could not even direct their missiles properly, had to shoot down their own plane. Then fired some rickety missiles to a US scrapyard that was only able to cause minor headaches to the scrap collectors in the military base.

Imagine a foreign country toast the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff of the US military in a broad day light. That country would be history.
It was done to Iran the noise makers that are only good in sponsoring terrorists. Their serving General that was only second to the Ayatollah in terms of influence.

Even Ayatollah himself had to come out and deny Iranian involvement in the Hamas attack because clearly he knows he would be among the first to receive hell fire missile on his head gear.
Israel is baiting them with "intelligence failure" and they are dancing. Why people even mention Iran in global power play beats me especially where the likes of US is fishing.

"minor headaches to the scrap collectors in the military base" you are very wicked

CoronaVirusPro:
Bad comparison!

The value you will get in Nigeria, is not same with that of Canada.

With 500k monthly in Nigeria, you are a king!

With $3000 monthly in Canada, you are still a pauper., but when you convert to Naira, you feel you are doing well.

Do you know how much rent, gas, groceries, phone and internet bills and not to mention the tax being sniffed out of you.


Your comparison is void. Value is different!

500k in Nigeria you are a king? Can you call the ambulance at 2 am and they woukd be in your house in less than 15 mjns if you have a medical emergency? Can you comfortably drive or enter public transport by 4am without any fear? Can you sleep at night without being tortured by gen noise? Can your child enjoy free primary and secondary school were they would be given free meals? Can you lose your job and it won't bother you because u know that ere lost if jobs around the corner. Na poverty dey worry you, u never see life. No be only with 500k u are a king

Tonubu, a self proclaimed Nadeco activist who ran away from Abacha now appoints a former henchman of the same Abacha. Nigeria is deeper than you think.

10 to 15 years to settle, buy house? Please ask them how they went - if their visa is legit or what jobs they are doing.

After leaving this thread for almost 3 years, I come back and it is still the same issue of hedging with the dollar that is still being discussed. The irony is people would still wait for another 3 years to ask this same question

This is how the demise of super eagles started. The focus on foreign based mediocre players that can't grace the bench of their clubs and university teams, over homegrown players that were hungry. They have brought this trend to basketball. Wether they even made the team on merit is another question

Nigeria has the 3rd highest case of paternity fraud in the world. It is not men commuting this fraud. Stop your single and parochial narrative

HBB1:
You mean the same Yorubas that have the first Drs, Lawyers, Engineers, Professors... in Nigeria ( or even Africa?)

You mean the Yourbas that have the first TV station in Africa?

You mean Yorubas that have the first primary, secondary schools and university in the country.

You mean Yorubas that had free education and free health in the old western region?

You mean the Yorubas that have the most economically viable region in Nigeria.

You mean Yorubas that had an organized kingdom that extended into present day Togo and Benin.

You are a liar!

There are stories of Yorubas giving back property to returnee Igbos ( with accrued rent) after the War.

Mention the companies bequeathed to Yorubas; and the parastatals the Igbo dominated.

Mind you, Yorubas already had wealthy men whilst some people were still dancing naked in the forest.

You make it seem like your folk were cheated out of their inheritance, when it was your attempt at power grabbing that backfired.

Stop the cap, abeg!

Thank you for confirming that education does not equate to common sense

emmabest2000:
China with strong economy and powerful leader has been dreaming of bringing down the exchange rate of USD for two decades by all means but .....
RMB to USD
2003 to 2005 100usd - 820rmb
2006 to 2009 100usd - 810rmb
2010 to 2012 100usd - 780rmb
From 2013 till 2022 the lowest was
100usd - 640rmb
Currently the price now is around
100usd - 710rmb
Believe me if it is that easy China would have force down the exchange rate to 100usd = 100rmb

But for Naira
2003 100usd 130naira
2023 100usd 700naira

How is 100USD = 700 Naira?

We Nigerians voted Tinubu as our president and we are very satisfied with him so far.

Anyone not happy with our choice can go constitute nuisance in public places.

How much you buy fuel?
