Africans, exterminate that "white saviour" mentality from your brains. Nobody can love you more than yourself. You have all forgotten what it mean to be second-class citizens. And here we are talking of ordinary foreign students. Black for that matter in a Eastern European country. Are you all surprised? You know nothing about this world then.

humberjade:
Nah! I beg to differ...our mumu authorities would still ensure every white or fairer foreigner gets evacuated first, followed by the rich and influential...then much later the masses. Nigerians might later come first before other African countries, but definitely not before the Whites and Chinese in particular, our authorities worship those folks, they can kill even fellow countrymen to protect them.

But apart from the corrupt and slave angle to it, Nigerians are kinda wired to treat visiting foreigners better than we treat ourselves. Bitter but true!

Yes, bitter truth. It's happening everyday all over Africa, and most especially Nigeria. A place where security officials would hold umbrella over the head of a foreigner in order to protect him/her from rain.

aboyaji:
To me, there's nothing bad the Ukrainian Government did to Nigerians in Ukraine.

This is unrest and security breach. Priorities must come first.

Why were even Nigerian citizens in Ukraine running away from the chaos?

Why did they not stand by the Ukrainian Government to fight the war coming from Russia?

You do not run away from your house while your enemy attack, you stand and protect your interest.

Ukrainian soldiers are doing the work while the strangers were running away. So, there's no way same treatment can be given to all. It doesn't happen.

Priorities first.

I don't want to talk about the South African menace. They're worse off. Xenophobia is hell.

If I may ask, which part of your body is your brain located? So, you are saying that foreign students should stay back and fight with Ukraine against Russia. You should first ask if they used to get the same benefits as Ukrainian citizens before the war. Senseless!

Ecos:
U don't mean it! How are we even sure that God is aware of this country sef. Just 'curiously' asking sha.

Aa far as God is concerned, any country that promotes injustice doesn't exist.

Wow
How true is this information?!
Jagaban is stinking rich no doubt even atiku can attest to it
Although it is necessary Nigerians ask for the source of wealth of someone aspiring to lead them , but it should be done without bigotry or hatred

Stinking rich? From what source? How many companies has he founded. Those that I know of are those he wrestled from the original owners, and this he did while in government. I know an individual personally, who was forced to hand over his company to him in return for some "change". Tinubu used state vehicle to do that because these individuals had went to Lagos State govt with some bright ideas their company want to partner Lagos in. However, Mr Jagaban will instead hijack the individual and make an offer in return for large chunk of the company. This is not hearsay. I discussed directly with someone who had similar experience. In fact, they would let you know that their way is the only way because you can't go it alone. Because, the govt need to issue you one permit or the other. Up till now, he control the entire resources and govt in Lagos.

Fernandez and Ronaldo should be out of man utd team

Matic should be given the captain armband.

Matic? You sabi football so. Matic, that's now so slow.

yuping:
na only rubbish African evil spirit dey do, when the rest of the world are becoming rich and powerful. Shame.

Positive human characters create positive environment and positive initiatives and less antagonizing interest. This create less chaos in a society. In such environment, dark forces have less negative energy to feed on. Though still not 100% ideal society.

Compare the above to the scenario below.

Negative human characters, including injustice, corruption, extreme greed, mass killings and spilling of human blood, excessively colliding human interests. All these create chaos in a society, and because most humans are reactionary, chaos lead to more chaos. This create an enabling environment for dark forces to feed on.

If Nigeria as other African country pursue justice, and change their character by 50% positivity, a lot of things will change in the physical world around them.

Ofiadiegwu:
Please Nairalanders, can this be real?

I need to be sure this is possible in real life .

What I know is that whenever a person is in financial difficulty, he thinks of many things and may blame wife, children, servants, neighbors, landlord, rodents, pets animals, parents, siblings, village people, government,...

I also know that when a person is poor or peniless: there is one or more thing that person can do to break away from the shackles of extreme poverty.
The task therefore is for such person to find that ONE OR MORE THING(S) AND DO IT.

OP, your task is to rise up from where you're now and do something different.

I recommend that you:
Wake up earlier from now on,
Think positive thoughts more,
Talk to positive people often,
Read motivational books as if your life depends on it.

More importantly, pray with your spouse without ceasing, agreeing together.

Don't see your God-given wife as your problem. That's wrong.

Be ready to work more than one job in a day. Do two or more jobs (even menial jobs). Let your source of income be more than one and don't put a boundary or limit to the jobs or duration of time you use working. No odd hours for you, except for security reasons..

Do these and see change in your finances.

Your advice is logical but it still might not be enough. The guy could adopt this approach but he will still need to take other steps. Because if he doesn't, the problem may still persist. It's sad that most of us are walking this world blind. It's even sadder if the individual is Yoruba. All the tools are there for him.

Mercychen:
The only thing I'm going to ask you is.. did you perform the marital rites on her or are you two just cohabitating without being properly married?

Where did they see the vision and where did you go for prayers? Hope it's not in a white garment Church though.

Well If your answer to my first question is yes, then that ( living together without Marriage ) could be the cause of the setbacks. But if youre properly married, then relax and believe that God will make things beautiful very soon; especially since you've prayed about it.

Blind faith. God will not come down to earth to make things beautiful for any humans. He has already provided us with all the tools, guide and knowledge we need. We human beings think too much of ourselves.

Needadvice200:
Thanks bro am a Christian but right now am in a state of unknown.

I see, you are a Christian. Obviously because of this, you will not do what you are supposed to do. Foreign religion has been used to turn the lives of most Yorubas upside down.

Young man! Here is your problem just like most Yorubas. Lack of understanding of yoruba spirituality. The same woman you are thinking is "doing" you, can also be the one to uplift you. Problem.is that you are going to the wrong people. Go to a genuine Babalawo or Ifa priest. There are times those Egbe attached to your wife may have issue with you as the husband. The best place to get advice is not on Nairaland. Go to a Babalawo. If you don't know the meaning of the word Babalawo due to foreign religion influence, it mean "Father of mystery". Most Yoruba don't know what Olodumare has given us. We are custodian of the most sacred and deepest spiritual knowledge on the face of this earth. And we are either neglecting it or misusing it. May Olodumare give you wisdom to navigate this issue. And just to enlighten you. All humans come into this world with an Egbe. They are mostly spiritual guides. But it depend on the pact your woman made with her Egbe in the spirit world prior to her birth into this world. Because you don't see or experience them doesn't mean they do not exist.

Baba, God give you brain, no doubt. But what have you used it for? You have used it to steal from Lagosians to enrich yourself and your family. And you have been one of the most undemocratic politicians by selecting who can participate in elections in Lagos, from governorship position to LG chairman.

tamzi:
I totally agree with you, it all begins and ends with a good leader which unfortunately we don't have.

Problem is that if they present a good leader with good character to Nigerians, they will prefer the evil ones and act as if the good ones doesn't exist.

Which Nigerian will do such? To leave all their comfortable lives behind to defend their country. I know 99.9% of Nigerians will not because there is really nothing to defend. And I can't blame you. I wouldn't either. I will never defend a land of injustice and pure corruption.

Aboks:
as you small like dis

See your life! Mr Nobody.

Igbofam:
Information is power. Live a clean life is all there is to it.

NDLEA is backed by the law to search at will without warrants

Problem is that Nigeria is a lawless country that everything is prone to abuse. NDLEA agents will abuse it and they will be doing trial and error random search of individuals home without carrying out enough investigation. There must be check and balance.

justosee:
They should have listened to the warning signs and left when European citizens were leaving.

Many Nigerians were still resuming school in Ukraine until the very day of the invasion.

You know Nigerians are their "God is in control" mentality. Or they will say "God will do it". Ths is planet Earth, where God has put you like all other humans in charge.

Babaheekmat:
Ungrateful ediots..

When the county needs you, you want to run

Some people are just mad. You can head in that direction to go help Ukrain fight its war. When does Nigerians become Ukrainian citizens? Reason why living in East European countries is a No, No. It's not like those in the West are any different but shame will not allow them to be segregating people on the basis of skin color during war time. They will never do it openly like this.

Frigga13:
All this noise on Nigeria cyberspace, how e wan take help Nigeria and Nigerians ..

Funny analysts everywhere claiming to know all and drop g bullshit.. some even call a.m. world war

Anazp:
To all the ipobians craving for war im sure they can see what War has done to Ukraine in less than a week. They better use their heads but wont be surprised if they dont since people from that part of the country hardly do until they are destroyed

First send your advice to terrorist Buhari and his evil northern cronies. Is it by force to be together? We say we no do again. I am not even Igbo. Up Odua Nation.

The white man continue to use his knowledge acquired and given to promote and rain evils upon the face of the earth. Time is running out for him to change his ways:
-Use of atomic bomb
-Use of arms to pursue wars
-Use of biological agents
-Global warming and depletion of ozone layer
-Genetically modified organisms that displaces use of natural ones and distort natural balance.
-Racism and colonialism at global scale.
-Imposition of un-natural sexual tendencies on people of other cultures at global scale, and use of economic sabotage to achieve this.

If he continues to choose to live at odd and above nature, Mother nature will find a way to crush him into nothingness like she did to the evil ones of the days of old.

eldoradoxx:
Some years back, I followed my sister to her Call to Bar ceremony and was greatly impressed how the organizers enforced decent dress codes. The ladies were on one line and men on another line. The ladies would show their nails to ensure it was not painted with anything, I saw the enforcer digging their hands inside the ladies hairs to ensure no form of hair extension or attachment was fixed, they were all on their natural hair. They also inspected their ear rings to ensure it was not dangling.
When people appear in any educational setting dressed like prostitutes and hooligans, education suffers because they learn absolutely nothing.
Universities must enforce dress codes, if u can't cope, education is not your thing, go and learn handwork.

Now, I am not for indecent dressing, but your mindset belong to a barbaric society. Nigeria is a country of zealots. It's only teenagers in your you can treat that way.

Mooh247:


lol

Why should security of the institution allow a poorly dressed person into the organisation

US is the most liberal of all countries, but they respect themselves when going into a government building

Even a notorious criminal wears suit and tie when facing a Judge


.

University building is not government building. I don't think it's the lecturer responsibility to turn back fully dressed student except such female put on a see through dress or a dress that exposed the body too much. People in position of authority overstep their boundary too much in Nigeria. Everyone should learn self control. That lecturer need to learn to keep his eyes of female blossoms. He is the one with no self control.

Eastlink:
I might disagree with him, but he's right on this one. A new world order where Africa becomes equal with the west is needed. And that might begin with a third world war by taking our destiny into our hands from the neo-colonialist.

How this make your continent or country equal? What kind of mindset is this?

immortalcrown:
People doubted me when I said those in Nigeria are in worse situations. These ones in Ukraine understand the reality in Nigeria.

God! I pity the Nigerian mindset. You mean you will prefer to die in a war torn country than take the offer to return to your country? Ah! Is it that hopeless? What kind of hopelessness is this. It's even too late because any evacuation should have been done long time before now. Both Nigerian govt and those Nigerians I'm Ukraine are not serious. Here, I am seeing Femi Gbajabiamila, house speaker saying one of his men in the chamber is going to Ukraine to bring back Nigeria. At this time? These people are crazy.

FreeStuffsNG:
Hmmmm...That Chief Commander Ebenezer Obey's old classic song with warning for those who defame others and what happens to them is playing in my head right now.

#abanijeekuofoarayinleshe

What do you expect from foot soldiers of Jagabandit, the grand commander of Agberos of Lagos. Do you know that no one or outfit has ever won a defamation case or any other case against Omoyele Sowore? Is this surprising? Another loss coming for enemies of the people. Omoyele is different from Saharareporters that is based in New York.

Kevinjap:
Maiduguri to Yola is 6500 naira sir

Are you not seeing my post on your issue? It seem someone has offered a helping hand. Good then.

Kevinjap:
It's not funny here in unimaid.
No light and scarcity of water.
I'm just stranded here with the increase in transport.

I will be more than happy if anyone can link me up with a free ride back to Yola

todaynewsreview:
There's nothing new here. Everyone will get to old age. Let's support the candidate of our choice and mobilise massively for the person. Also we come out to vote. So far, he seems to be the only candidate campaigning. What are the rest waiting for? Nothing good comes easy. Inasmuch I want Peter Obi, no message from him so far.

Umm! There is nothing new here? Only in Nigeria! And not "Everyone want to be the president"

Tobedated:
The weirdest place i've self-service is in a church i was just beginning to lose faith in god one day i just decided that Bleep god went to a secluded place in the church then wanked. It was that day i lost faith in god because if he was real he should have struck me down with lightening or something

Why not go try that in a Sango shrine. Then you will be able to tell which religion is real or not.

I remember the time I was living in Europe. There was this small bus terminus where I always got on the bus to the small town I used to live. It's like 30 minutes or so from the main city. There was a public toilet at this location. Almost on each occasion I went there to pee, there was usually one or two old junkie men "wanking", and pretending to be peeing. Any time of the day.

Expect Tinubu to be making his cut from this fraudulent scheme. That's why they were trying frustrate the private ride share company. Everything about the Lagos State govt is shady.
