That's the point.. the economy was not as opened as it is now n the economy was not as dollarized as now.
Those earning that money then also include new generation banks .

Telecom were beginning to get libereated then.

So aside these few sectors, which other sectors were doing well?

So year 2000 was not a long time ago.

10k tho a good money was not a big money .

Most Nigerians were not as lucky as you to have a 100k naira per month job in the early 2000s.
 
The majority of the population was making less than 10k naira per month in 2000, and the purchasing power of our currency was higher in those days compared to today.

Conversely, if an item had a price of 10k nairas in 2000, it will cost 200k nairas or more today in 2024 due to inflation.

10k naira was a lot of money for an average Nigerian in 2000, contrary to your opinion.

peleson1:


All those in oil sector.and telecoms


Pls 2000 was not a long time ago.

Within 2000 and 2004 were same thing

Now I know that you're not being realistic, and you don't have any point to back your claim.

What was the population of employed Nigerians in 2000, and how many were in either the telecom or oil sectors?

The answer is "less than one percent.".

peleson1:

There was no much difference in naira and salary within year 2000 and year 2004.

70k to 120k range were ok salaries .

Nitel staff were earning around 60k n above n were making lots of money.

Be realistic and forget about tips or other money made illegally. How many Nigerians were making 60k naira from 2000 to 2004?

10k was not lot of money then .

It was just a little money that could pay ur transport to n fro Lagos.

My salary then was close to a 100k tho

He was meant to be paid 35k not 10k

To you, 10k naira might be a little money during the year 2000, but to the average Nigerian, 10k was a lot of money because my salary before I resigned from my job in December 2005 was around 25k naira per month. 

Considering that the minimum wage in Nigeria during the year 2000 was 5500 naira, therefore, your 100,000 naira per month salary made you one of the highest-paid individuals in the country.

The airport is beautiful

Yes, it is. The truth is that we don’t have a standard airport in Nigeria. MMA is nothing but a shame.

Why are you adding pain to those who are already in pain?

Instead of demolishing the houses, the government can ask the landlord to pay a fine.

Dear men, make sure you marry a woman who has visions not a parasite and a liability

The bitter truth

Gone are the days when things were normal, but these days things have become abnormal to the point where we don't cherish each other anymore.

Nowadays, the Fulanis take more joy in killing innocent human beings than any other thing.

RIP to him. In a normal society, an incident like this will be investigated for any foul play.

There are so many things you can learn online yourself if you’ve the time, money to spend on data and laptop.

Also, don’t allow guys to introduce you to yahoo because that’s what most of the folks are doing but they will lie to you.


@drella

This is not new. Nigerians will vandalize rail roads. We are worse than our leaders.

Nigerian rich men and shady businesses. After a few months, people will dig into his background and expose him like they did to Dozy Mmobuosi.

No one is talking about Hushpuppy Dozy Mmobuosi anymore.

Poverty and slavery mentality

Firstly, if you had your previous two children in the USA on a B1/B2 visa, why would you need an interview again to secure a new visa instead of using the dropbox option? Moreover, your previous USA visa should surely enhance your chances of obtaining a Canadian visa. The Canadian visa officer will compare the date you applied with the date your USA visa was refused. Some officers might still send you a procedural fairness letter to explain this, noting that you have not violated any regulations. Indeed, some people are refused entry to the USA and still obtain a Canadian visa. Therefore, your USA visa refusal under Section 214(b) is not a ban; it simply means you were refused without having committed any crime. So, just relax, pray, and hope you get the Canadian visa approved.

She attended the visa interview because she doesn’t qualify for the US visa interview waiver.

Applicant must meet each of the following criteria to qualify for visa interview waiver:

- Your previous visa was issued in Nigeria.

- Your previous visa is in the same classification as your current application.

- Your previous visa was a full validity, multiple entry visa.

- Your previous visa expired within the last 48 months or will expire in the next 3 months from the date of application.

- You have all your passports covering the entire period since receiving the previous visa and the passport with the most recent visa.

- You have never been arrested or convicted of any crime or offense in the United States, even if you later received a waiver or pardon.

- You have never worked without authorization or remained beyond your permitted time in the United States.

I intend getting a new phone and my budget is 120k. Please I need advise on the best option to go for with regards to my budget.

Different individuals have different problems. Some folks are crying about this economic hardship and looking for cash to put food on the table for their families, while others are out there shopping for houses, cars, or phones.

This life is not balanced.

Yes I know, I'm more concerned if the usa vo's note of me going to have a baby will affect my canadian application

Madam, stop being worried. The US and Canada don't share this type of information.

Both countries share information relating to applicants' identities and determine which applicants are potential security threats early in the application process before they enter either country.

Also, they share information as to whether an applicant has previously been refused a visa or removed from either Canada or the US.

Guys, this back-and-forth is just an act of humiliation. Would everyone kindly put aside their differences so that peace may prevail?

This lady dodged a straight bullet for walking away from this marriage, because I couldn’t imagine the type of shit she will encounter by staying with this boy for one day more.

Partially true, not 100%.

The CEO of Google is a salary earner. His salary is $2 million a year. In 2019, he was compensated with a triannual stock grant, and this was valued at $281 million.

In 2022, he made $226 million including triannual stock grant.

Also, some salary earners in Nigeria are super rich. Although, they made their money through illegal means.

hasbunallah:




Forget other saying you shouldn’t declare asylum. Many form rich here a lot. Over sabi kill our people. So far more than 4 people I know too after long talk and over paying hotel bills they ended declaring asylum. Hotel bills is choking. Better to declare asylum from airport. You will be taken to lodge, while you wait for hearing. All these aren’t hard as people make it look.

Out of 6513 Nigerians that applied for asylum in Canada in year 2023, only 1086 were accepted. The approval rate last year for Nigerians was around 17%.

Anyway, I don’t think anyone is forcing him not to do whatever he plans to do. Who knows, he might be among the lucky ones.

Can I apply for Irish visa for barbing skills as work visa pls

All you need to do is go check the Critical Skills Occupation List to see if Barber is included in the list, and then you can start from there.

Hello, my cousin is, but on the condition that:

You don't have excess luggage to carry
You don't have any suspicious (not necessarily contraband) item you're carrying

That you're the only one travelling.

The reason I asked those questions are simple. Someone was introduced to me sometime ago. She was going for her master's degree. She had relations in Canada but had never travelled before so I was asked to help out since we're traveling along same route. I accepted cos of her aunt's kindness to us at home.

We met at the airport. Come and see luggage like someone running away from home. She also had 2 kids, lots of orishirishi packed in luggage. I started becoming a courier assistant right from the airport, yanking off my suit to help out. We landed safely and I was still same person who assisted her in taking her luggage off the carousel one after the other. I wheeled them out for her to take a cab to her location.

If you're not in that lady's description, fine. I'd ask him and revert

I don't know if you've ever heard of this airport announcement that says, "Don't leave your bag unattended and don't accept anything from anyone.".

Also, I have heard, seen, or watched videos of travelers being arrested at airports for having prohibited items in their luggage. As a result of this, I will not assist anyone with his or her bag because I am not going to jail for anyone.

I hate this phrase "if I had known, I wouldn't do it.".

What authority does he have to ruin their day with this ridiculous postponement?

They are both adults, and I don’t think they need anyone's approval to do what they believe is best for them.

This type of nonsense can only happen here.

Take your partner to the registry and marry her. The certificate issued at the registry is more recognized than that of the church.

My good man,

Quick question, at time of applying for your wife's visa, did you authenticate any government issued document - marriage certificate, etc?

I'm seeing conflicting information on the internet.

Kind regards.

She applied for a visitor visa, not an immigrant visa. I don’t think visitor visa needs any authentication.

Anyway, she went with the originals and photocopies of her documents.

ifycoly:
Please I need help, for a visitor family visa. 2 adults and 4 kids all under 16 of age. My question is after payments who will go for biometry. Because the payment is 500 Canada dollars and 170 Canada dollars. Please I urgently need answer.

Biometrics collection is mandatory for all foreign nationals between the ages of 14 and 79 who are applying for temporary residence visas.

The World Guinness Record has been rendered completely worthless by Nigerians.
