Politics › Re: An Expatriate’s Email From Nigeria by blacksta(m): 11:17am On May 06, 2009
AjanleKoko:
I did my NYSC in one airline like that. Operating locally, but almost wholly-owned foreign airline (Dutch in fact).
We had one cleaner lady who used to clean around our hangar and the workshop. This old lady would go on and on about how these 'Oyinbos' were so much better than black people. She would say 'In fact when you clean toilet for black man, e go so dirty so tay black man to stand on top toilet bowl, but the white man own, always clean!' I would always respond 'Mama, like your people o, no prefer oyinbo to your people!'.

One afternoon like that, after another of such banters, we went off to lunch, and by the time we got back, I heard she was gone.
Apparently, the Dutch MD was strolling around the hangar and found the old lady asleep in one corner. He promptly fired her.

A while later, I saw her, she had joined one other airline. My only remark to her was 'Mama, shey you don see say na we fit like ourselves, and Oyinbo no fit like us?' She smiled.

Of course some people would say 'well, serve her right for sleeping on duty, that is why the white man is so productive, they don't tolerate any slacking!'. I expect such reponses in fact.


Peace.
That is why the level of decay in the fabrics of Nigeria is so rampant - it sounds like you agree to the fact " sleeping on duty " is o.k

Why the hell should i pay you to sleep on the job.  Oyinbo no get time for sentiment.   Would any of you ( u and the mama) be employed if things weren't done properly

nuzo:
Your likes are one of the reasons I miss Almondjoy dearly here.

Forget those set of cowards and losers. Their hands are even more soiled than their PDP counterparts.

@Adebayo

Time have almost proven that the "hero" was a fraud as I have stated earlier.
PDP, AC and majority of ekiti people are also a bunch of fraudstars, cowards and noise makers.
I second that - Nigerians are weak willed people . I am very sure members of the AC are already switching sides possible looking for a contract. Status quo is norm in nigeria. As i said earliers we are masters in the area of suffering and smiling.

Fhemmmy:
that was the most stupid thing u could ever do.
Evidence can be planted easily.
Next time, show the ID and go on from there.
refusing arrest cld be interpreted in several ways and while you were struggling, i am sure u would have laid your hands on the officer and the translation of that, u might not like it.
For the sake of your mother and father in Nigeria - just show your id and let those bastards carry their cursed life away from you. On this instance i think you can go all the always - seek legal advice

Congrats Segun Oni!

Now i can buy my popcorns, sit down, cross my feet and watch Ekiti state implode into extinction with this result because i trust AC to cause katakata in Ekiti to make life unbearable for all parties. Dont be suprised a state of emergency might occur in the nearest future to stop the future madness that will occur there! undecided
Yu actually think anything will happen - after one month . people will accept their faith . Nigerians no get liver.

It started with the coming of Gazidis and continued with signing of  Arshavin.I doubt if Wenger will be the ALL in ALL again,and i am sure he will have less thinking hats to wear now.

[quote author=T@meD0 link=topic=267940.msg3821731#msg3821731 date=1241472675]what's cool about this video is how fluent and somewhat proficient this oyinbo bobo be with pidgin English considering he's a foreigner.

on the other hand, what i find not only uncool but distasteful is the naija guy in the background trying too hard to talk like an American. 

cursing and carrying on like it's cool.  here we have a foreigner embracing our culture while this American-wanna-be is making a darn fool of himself trying to
sound American despite hin thick naija accent.  *shakes head in disbelief* some people sha. . .    olodo buruku!
[/quote]Nigerians suffer from serious inferiority complex. Them plenty for U.k and i am sure in the U.s trying so hard to force the accent. Many times i just laugh " see this agege bush boy or with trying to blow phonetics" . One thing they dont know it sounds awful.

Why dont you just speak clear english.
