IBEXY:As a matter of fact I am swimming in Yoruba culture and won't trade Naija for anywhere else. Meet me at Yorubaland www.yorubaland.org |
While I do not support irate behaviours I can at least half understand why some Nigerians may have a special hatred for citizens of some countries . If you have ever been singled out for "special treatment " at airports abroad just because of your Nigerian passport I think that it will not be too difficult to develop hatred very easily . I have heard terrible stories from several people including religious ministers and I have personally sworn that if it ever happens to me it will be last time I will venture out of Naija ![]() Iwosi ni mo hate @ibexy I thought Yankee is US and not UK . As a matter of fact the word was derived from Cherokee Indian word meaning "cowards" . Not many Americans and Naijas know that of course ![]() |

AFAIK:[b] I get am from dictionary.com schiz·o·phre·ni·a 1.

Students are different from immigrants. With the new rules coming to force soon , going as a student might be a lot more difficult as you may need to have not less than 9000 pounds declared for your living expenses before being permitted in. Also HSMP I think is being replaced by Tier 1 which requires that you not only have a substantial amount as living expenses when coming in , but also proof that you have a good job from where you are coming by showing that you constantly have a minimum monthly balance of I think not less than 3000 pounds in your account over a period of time before applying . In both cases they are demanding substantial inflow of foreign exchange from both students and immigrant workers. No free lunch again ![]() Hardly worth it is my honest opinion.

I am still baffled that this thread is used to compare Naija and UK which is completely out of the context . Nobody even knows whether Pafun is Nigerian or not. Even if he's not Nigerian I wonder if it will even cool down the temperature of this thread |

[/b] JJYOU:you are not being very truthful to yourself either and when someone begins to lie to himself his life is in serious trouble. britain is hundreds of years older than "nigeria" . where were you in the victorian time of the plagues and other calamities which were of poor hygiene in london ? go to london museum and see for yourself and then go and get a hair cut my brother they didn't get where they are overnight but by working hard at it[b] with slave labour from abroad[/b] |
who is nigeria ? this is one question i always ask myself . nigeria is not a person . is it not me and you ? and if nigeria has to be fixed it will be by fixing up me and you and our perception and attitude to ourself and the name we call ourself collectively . in developed countries if the citizens see something they don't like they organize protests and carry placards and change the system. but if my naija brothers see something they don't like they run away and curse from abroad. nobody wants to die , they want somebody else to die for them . i no blame them sha. eba dey sweet o ! @pafun anyway sha bros pafun you sure say you no be british man who want to discourage the rest of us from coming to your country . no be say i wan come o as time don nearly reach to dey dress like crazeman . winter don come ![]() |

pafun:Diss-ing naija syle !! both of you should be rappers on MTV. That was extremely funny and I think it quite hit the nail on the head . The message I see is that living in naija is like inside mental hospital wey them build inside maximum security prison It is not only our leaders who have problems ; all of us should examine ourselves. |
It is a lie . See www.rateoga.com |
@ Afam I went away from Nairaland for along while after I and a friend emonkey were attacked by mad dogs simply because we felt different to statements such as "most Nigerians are fraudsters" . Suffice to say that the main proponent of that idea on this forum (a US based security guard) fell silent to the question about how many members of his own family are among the "most" Nigerians who are fraudsters. I have since accepted that it takes all sorts to make up Nairaland - the good, the mad and the hungry (and angry) . Let people rant , if it is the way that they can keep from going stark raving mad. I have several times observed as well that once you are seen not to be insulting Obasanjo , either on Nairaland and elsewhere and not calling for his public execution by hanging and firing squad, then you are anti-progress. May be it would have been a good thing if an industry is officially built around all this and Fashola permits street traders to sell "Kill Obasanjo" face caps, T-shirts , flags , keyholders and other stuff on Lagos roads. Of course we may wish that other people are as sensible as the rest of us when making allegations in public , but remember no two heads are alike - there are good ones, there are bad ones (ori buruku), there are empty ones , some are full of stone and lead ( ori dota) and a lot are just full of sawdust and garbage. Peace. Afam: |
