Rolling on the ground for what exactly? He must face the consequences of his actions to deter him from repeating it. It's annoying that people do stupid and careless acts in Nigeria and expect you to forgive them simply because they ask for forgiveness. Forgiving people for their reckless actions just because they rolled on the floor encourages stupidity. If you crash a person's car here, they don't even come out of the car to talk to you. They just take pictures of your plate number and call the police. It'd be then left for you to call your insurance company or get your car towed. No 'oga abeg' no 'it won't happen again sir'

Tell her to visit Nigeria and marry you. You can even sponsor her visit to let her and her parents know how serious you are. Convince her that Lagos is safe. Once she marries you in naija, you'll be half way into the US.

Point of correction I am a typical IGBO Biafra for that matter and ready to vote any competent Nigerians who can lead this country forward and when it comes to issues concerning Nigeria I don't do political or tribal sentiments. You are busy deceiving Nigeria youths to leave the country because they voted Buhari as if travelling abroad will solve Nigeria problems.
You enter Nigeria with a foreign passport .... story for the goats. Why did you even entre Nigeria again when you done Japa finally. Having a foreign passport doesn't make you a first class citizen there and they still see you as Nigerian! You know what you get when you mention that word Nigeria to a foreigners? This is as the result of Nigeria youth disgracing Nigeria abroad with illigal activities because they want to Japa by all means .
I only visit Nigeria because of my family. And within the East, I'm treated as equal among my igbo brothers. And I'm sorry, even though I'm a naturalized citizen here, I have almost all the rights as the natives. Infact, the people here treats me with more dignity than how most Nigerians treated me while I was in Nigeria. And don't worry about mentioning the name Nigeria. I try not to mention it as much as possible. When I'm asked here where I was born, I simply say Wakanda lol and laugh it off. If Nigeria didn't get better before, is it now that it will get better when they borrow to pay recurrent expenditures? �

You really want me to help you fix Nigeria when you intentionally voted Buhari, a man who couldn't present his certificate in 2015 election, simply because he is a Fulani muslim with a yoruba VP? You rejected world class minds like Ngozi Okonjo Iweala and Peter Obi because they're Igbos.
2023 is on the way and you're already gearing up for Tinubu a Muslim. � Go to most federal agencies and you'll be shocked at the level of nepotism going on there. Sir, Nigeria belongs to the educated Muslims/northerners and we're now leaving it for them to do as they please. Have already received my citizenship here where they don't discriminate against me because I'm igbo and guess what, I only enter Nigeria with my foreign passport ���
HRprof:


How much are you earning currently and how much do you spend ? Yes they have better environment and you have peace of mind but not 100% (racist ) meanwhile most Nigerians are not travelling for peace of mind, they want greener pasture and is not as easy as you said otherwise Nigerians wouldn't be committing crime abroad.
I weep for this country because the youths that supposed to take over government and fix the country are the one running away and keep blaming the old people in leadership forgotten that the youths contribute to the development of that country they are running to. Our mumu suppose don do by now

I left Nigeria in 2015 and it was the best decision I've ever made in my life. The peace of mind, clean environment, water, food, health care, being surrounded by civilized people, no generator noise and a better future for your unborn kids. Did I forget to mention that this is my 7th year here and I've not taken any malaria pill! grin Like the posters above advised, that your 300k salary is nothing compared to the peace of mind you'll get abroad. And what is more, you'll earn more if not more than double what you currently earn . So bro, if you're not an educated norther/Muslim find a way and leave that God forsaken country as soon as possible. Do not procrastinate!

Business / Re: Naira Tumbles To N435/$1 At Official Market As CBN Adjusts Forex Rate by benpedro(m): 11:38pm On Dec 31, 2021
rentAcock:
Even if Naira drops to N4000/$, I will continue to believe in this country because I can see what's coming. The wise are heavily investing in Nigeria while the weak are looking for how to go abroad. The whole world is tired of China, they are looking for cheap labor, Nigeria is the next China. We have the population, the youth and the literacy level to be the next manufacturing power. Plus, several countries that benefited from slavery (U.S, UK, Spain and Portugal) have proposed ways to pay back Africans for all the abuse, exploitations throughout our history. There is a conscious effort to make Africa the next industrial hub. Those lacking foresight won't see this, they only see the now and not the later. Ignore the noise and look for a small factory you can start; In the next 5yrs all the big multinational companies like Amazon, Walmart and co will be pouring billions into our infrastructure just to enable us to manufacture goods for them. So many people will miss this boat, but you are hearing this now, act on it.
This must be sarcasm lol. You mean Americans and Europeans pouring billions to a country that generates less than 6000 megawatts in its 60 years of existence? Please cut it off with this clown show of yours!

Autos / Re: N1,200,000 or Less Tokunbo Cars by benpedro(m): 11:17pm On Jul 31, 2021
You can always advertise cars with new prices. Some of us even earn foreign currency.
I for one don't mind buying a car of 4 Millon or thereabout. However, it must be from you. Someone said we should look elsewhere and don't cry because you didn't reply our WhatsApp messages. I must make it bold here. I trust Amdman more than 99.9% of the people living in Nigeria right now. I have had dealings with many of them from here and most have proven to be mischievous and can't be trusted. I'm afraid. I will wait for Amdman until he's ready.

the thing tire me,
Have left him tons of WhatsApp msgs and none has been replied.
I could bet my left ball Amdman ain't Igbo. Dude is pretty comfortable with the few sales he makes yearly and neglects the opportunity to double or triple his sales by simply employing a customer service agent.

Come on, which serious business man ignores potential customers? Some would say he ignores messages because people only wanna waste his time when they aren't ready to make a purchase yet. However, how would you know a client who is ready or not if you don't reply all text messages?
A serious business man wouldn't mind giving you expensive perfume to spray all over your body. At the end you can decide not to buy. The business man smiles and bids you farewell knowing fully well you might return tomorrow.

Mexico keh.

Please help me understand how that is possible since most of them are running away to the US
I owe you no explanation sir. I just told you the minimum wage ñ and the employment situation here. You should now use your common sense to compare the aforementioned minimum wage to what is obtainable in God's own country, the USA. Also consider how easy it is for any Mexican to get into the US through trekking and do the math. If Nigeria had a border with the USA, lol I can't guarantee Buhari, Tinubu, Atiku and Peter Obi wouldn't jump fence illegally to enter lol
Jobs/Vacancies / Re: Things You Should Not Say In A Job Interview by benpedro(m): 9:01pm On Jun 25, 2021
If the firm needs you, they don't pay attention to all these minor issues. Nigeria's problem is unemployment. Here in Mexico, they advertise and even pay you bonuses to apply for manufacturing jobs. I mean unskilled labour jobs that pay not less than 200k naira equivalent, with lots of benefits, free food, free transport, access to house and car loans worth millions of naira. If you say you wanna work, they'll ask you to start immediately. Sometimes, they'll even be dragging your cloths lol. Fix unemployment in Nigeria and forget all these dos and donts for jobs that pay peanuts!

Great performance overall, I was feeling sorry for Pulisic with his poor passes, but he redeemed himself with that run and assist.
Well deserved victory!

However, we need to improve on our final balls and goal scoring; we won't have it this easy always. Also in the league, our goal scoring hasn't been good.
That sprint scored the goal I swear.

In a developed country, dude can end up becoming a millionaire by suing off the behind of those uneducated hoodlums who think accusing someone with a loud voice equals evidence.

However, to tell a judge in the UK that this dude can kill people or make them run mad at the comfort of his home by simply talking to that rubbish he has in his hands would make a hit funny video lol.

Is there any body that evaluates the worth of a building in Nigeria? Or do you people just insert your hands in your crotch and quote 75 million. With 75 million naira, I can buy at least 2 duplexes in the United States. In a quiet , secured neighborhood with concealed drainage system, 24hrs electricity etc. I've given up building a house in a Nigerian city. Will just build a house in my village and invest my money here. Period!

Sir could you please specify what you mean by the 'carcass' only? Is the roofing included in the carcass? If yes, what roofing material?
Timtol:

This building shouldn't trespass 15m for carcass but what's on ground is 16.2m which even seem impossible to complete,labour is higher than Lekki Lagos,materials and many more.
Granite 10tyres truck 265k
Lowest amount per day is #2,500 for labourers
As we always ensure the client buys his materials himself and even some part of workmanship for perfect transparency and we are spending much higher, only cement is fair here so far...

If the design is well noted, you will notice we have cantilever on the lintel which such design is scarce and to last long it must be cast-in-situ(R.C) and two primary purpose is to serve as shade and aesthetics,in this case increase the cost a bit on both iron,sand, granite, cement,workmanship as well.


I hope your comment is well attended to Sir.
