Majority of Nigerians in America don't have 2 million naira anywhere in this world including heaven. But they make that money every month or two depending on job. The bills here is crazy and unbelievable.

I lived in New York City for 5 years and know what am talking about. Now work for myself and make good money. Money however is not everything, life in America is extremely sweet and stress free if you don't wanna kill yourself with jobs. Don't let anyone discourage you from coming to America. I was in Nigeria last year and fell in love with Abuja and Lagos but after few weeks the whole drama began to irritate me and I ran back to America.

That is a lie. You may be a loser. You are probably living above your means. New York is an expensive place for an illiterate to live. Some Nigerians think they can live on high-end cities without being educated enough to get high-paying jobs. You cannot be a janitor in New York and expect to be rich. It is a city designed for professionals. Besides, why stay in a state which taxes income?
Places like Texas does not tax income, only federal income. Also: Alaska, Florida, Nevada, New Hampshire, South Dakota, Tennessee, Texas, Washington, and Wyoming have no state income tax. So when you make $60,000, your federal tax rate is about 22%. You bring home $46,800. $15, 000 can cover your living expenses in states with no state income tax, if you are living within your means. That should leave you with $36,000 annually in savings.

I can tell you this, because I know some Igbo elderly men here who are not educated but they save +$36,000 or so doing blue collar jobs. Jobs like maintenance or such! Besides federal income tax rate which is reasonable ( 10% or less for people who make $40,000 a year) and income tax is charged based on income level, states with tax income should be avoided since they have exactly the same things as states without state income tax. BUT , YOU KNOW THAT ALREADY.

I can't say for other people, but as a medical professional- I make about $230,000. My federal income tax is 22% which is $50, 600. I bring home $179,400. I pay about $1,300 monthly on rent. I pay $208 monthly on car notes. My utility bills is about $75. Car gas is about $120 monthly (And yes- I drive every day. Even if the malls are 1 mile away from my residence). Car insurance is about $144 monthly. Food expenses is $600 monthly. In fact, let's say I still have about +$140,000 breathing in my bank account.
Half of which goes into my retirement fund, indexes and other financial equities. Every quarter (4 months), I get about $7500 net in dividends, but those are from my indexes and stocks. The retirement fund and 401K programs cannot be touched, until a certain age or else I will be taxed on it. As for people saying Nigerians in American suffer more than Nigeria, IT IS A BLOODY LIE.
In the United States, you cannot work more than 40 hours per week. It is federal law- all states must obey. If you work more than 40 hours, your company must pay you your hourly age + 75% of your hourly wage- ALL PER HOUR. This is the only country illiterates can live more comfortable than the most educated Nigerian, by just doing blue collar jobs. Welders for example here make about $60K to $120,000 depending on industry. If a Nigerian here is making pennies, then he or she came with visitor's visa. Probably has been hiding from the law, hence the shitty jobs.

I vex.

I woke up angry this morning. It is only 10:46am, but I dey vex mad for Nigeria. First thing first, I am angry that I had to leave my country of birth because it could not let me grow. Since I left, nothing has changed. In fact, things have gotten worse than my time over there.

I vex.

I am angry that my grandfather's generation are deciding the future of my siblings generations. I dey rage my generation's testosterone has lowered. The new men in place today trade their future and descendants' for a little money from old politicians. There was a time men picked up arms for their rights in Nigeria. It hasn't happened , since 1973.

I vex.

I dey rage. My heart's mouth dey foam like a rabid dog. I am angry each time a Nigerian American has to come back to Nigeria,he or she has sleepless nights over security. Personally, my PTSD gets triggered because I have had to fight my way out of being robbed at gun point three times in Nigeria. After a visit, I go back to the United States and my body's high-alert mechanism has to readjust itself. Lads, na only una dey poor for this world??

I vex.

Una dey complain of problem this and problem that, but una go shoot the first savior wey raise his or her head. Giant of Africa my goddamn ass! India, China, Canada, Mexico, and United States HAVE WAY MORE DIVERSITY, CULTURES, RELIGIONS AND LANGUAGES THAN Y'ALL. You do not see their countries stagnant due to diversity. However, una be the tiny chihuahua dog wey wan bark pass a wolf. Go and park aside joor. This is why the world does not take y'all serious.

Mtchewww... Man, I dey vex well this morning.

What y'all get paid in a year is what I put in my monthly car gas! Yet, y'all are happy with the status quo. Just what on earth is wrong with Nigerian millennials today, eh? Old men don dey promise una a whiff of power and chicken change to sell una sons and daughters' future; and, most do not even think twice before selling them. Una ignorance bad!

God... my heart is burning with ANGRY. I am as furious as a castrated baboon.

Na only a Nigerian go see another nigerian, come to vex for the nigerian wey e no dey feed. Which kind yeye be this nonsense for una Nigeria? Person go go work six days a week and 14 hours a day, then comes back with $3. On election day, e go live the average capable guy wey promise to fulfill his political needs and vote for his grandfather's age mate with outdated political principles. Tell me Nigerians, na every year una dey repair the same road?

Can't you make another road?

Y'all are laughing at black Americans and calling them akata, but they are way ahead of y'all. Y'all DID NOT EVEN PASS THROUGH ONE FOURTH OF WHAT THEY PASSED THROUGH, yet they are way ahead in their communities despite the hurdles. Abeg, forget the degrees y'all have. Una be the most arrogant, self-righteous, enslaved and under-paid citizens of the world. THE THING WHICH HURTS ME THE MOST IS THAT Y'ALL ARE VERY BRILLIANT AND DOCILE.

I vex, because I will not contribute to the pussification of a nation. I am going go some coffee, and let una think about una lives. Tufia kwa!

All I can ask is, "When is he coming?"

Abroad is not Nigeria, Wike. We await you

Guys, this guy is not a real American military staff- Army, Navy, Air Force, Coast Guard and National Guard. The American military does not allow beard or mustache. Not even Officers are allowed to bear, talk of enlisted men.
Unlike Nigeria, the military camouflage uniforms can be purchased and won. As long as you do not put fake ranks, name, the American flag on the shoulder and claim to be in military service, it will not be considered as STOLEN VALOR. Stolen Valor is an act that can get civilians prosecute for claiming military service while wearing a replica of the American military uniform. Besides that, it is not a big deal to wear the army camouflage. THAT IS WHAT THIS FOOL IS DOING!
I have seen a lot of Nigerians in American do this a lot whenever there is a problem in Nigeria. They claim to be in the military, while they are not. It pisses me the hell off, because I have friends in the military risking lives for the freedom these Nigerian fools take for granted. Now, you can recognize fools by these:
1) Beard or mustache (no matter how little, it is NOT allowed).
2)Talks about fighting a country that has no enmity with the US (You get court-marshaled for that. Besides, the oath you took for being in the military requires only allegiance to the States and no one else. Or else, you will be considered AWOL. Aka gone rogue... You will BE hunted down, brought back and prosecuted as a traitor. That is a lot of years in a military prison.)
3)Claims to have access to top-level officers- Generals and Lieutenant-General (Bullshit. Most officers which start with a second-lieutenant rank never get to see a General. These guys are in the Pentagon. They are the military brains in the brain. It is fucking hard to see one. It is like saying a mayor of an American city gets to see a President because he is a mayor. Nay, it does not work like that. The difference in experience between an American General and junior officers is +35 years of outstanding military service. To get to a colonel which is some ranks below a General takes 25 years of distinguished military service. So, you understand now.)
4)Boasts of American military intervention in Nigerian civil crisis (It is unlikely to happen. Well, let's say only Africans care about Africa. The rest of the world DOES NOT GIVING A FLYING HOOT. That is why a military dictatorship can happen , and the developed nations will still trade with the dictatorship government.)

So, do not mind that bearded-goat. He is not in the military. If you do not believe me, go to US military websites to check the pictures out. Or google. Say he did not have beard, he DOES NOT HAVE THE LIVER TO POST THAT ON SOCIAL MEDIA. The fear of MP (military police) is the beginning of wisdom. Even para dey catch the officers when MPs are involved , talk of this goat!

You are a fool. Do you mean to tell me that you were able to read European alphabetical letters at that age?

Onye iberibe! This is how we indoctrinate these kids into forsaking and despising their mother tongues. The funny part of this is that no matter the english you learn, Europeans and Americans will hardly understand you after you get here. So, why don't you encourage him or her to learn to read and write your native language first?

Perhaps, let him or her learn English when mingling with peers. That is how I can read and write the language today. And, I am better at expressing myself in written Igbo language than the so-called English grammar. Anya ka m noo n'ele gi bu onye nzuzu!

It took the elected slowpoke nine Goddamn days to spill beans. It kinda begs the question, "Where have you been during the times SARS murdered innocent Anambra people, Mr. Governor?"

Besides, firing the last element of SARS irreducible rascality in your state does not solve the problems of SARS. Will he dismantle the numerous illegal police money-exhorting road blocks in Onitsha and other Anambra cities or towns?

After SARS, the police are still out there in the entire Eastern state illegally collecting bribes. As a diaspora in the US who received serious slaps from the police for reciting my civil rights in Onitsha when the receipt of my 4-year old laptop was asked, how do stop those cocksucking hungry-looking arse-torn shameless sons of whores from blocking roads and streets to collect bribes in your state?

I am not surprised. These are SARS personnel on regular clothing. It is the same people. There is no way it is not SARS. Nigerian civilians know these protests are very important to them. The rascals in their midst want to storm police stations. So, there is no way these attackers are SARS personnel in mufti.

sigiyaya:
The North is the problem of Nigerian but i don't blame the the North for the problem of Nigeria. I blame the south especially the Igbo's and the Yoruba's the most foolish ethnic groups in Nigeria. The Igbo's and Yoruba's are not the only ethnic groups in the southern Nigeria but the
are by far the biggest in population, and if they should sit up other smaller ethnic groups in the southern Nigeria will have no choice other than to sit up too.

It was a fact that before 1960 the south where ready for independent from the British but Zik said no to Awolowo and demanded that the south should wait for the North to get ready (imagine today southern Nigeria as a country since 1960), no matter how badly managed it wouldn't have been as bad as the present day Nigeria. During the years the regions where allowed to govern themselves for some period of years we know the regions that did well in times of sustainable development, (If not for the civil war the eastern Nigeria would have developed more than its present day condition; (Yet not as bad as the North).

The southern Nigeria has been so foolish (courtesy Igbo's and Yoruba's) that they allow the North to dominate, rule and manage Nigeria even when it is clear that Northern Nigeria are mentally backward with meanly illiterate populated society. How do you expect people who couldn't manage and grow their own region to manage and grow Nigeria as a country.

Since 1960 the Northern Nigeria has successfully been using one part of the south against another in order to achieve their aim which is to acquire political power ( use the Igbo's against the Yoruba's and again use the Yoruba's against the Igbo's) the divide and rule system used by the British to conquer eastern part of the present day Nigeria. The North used the Yoruba's in 2015 and the same North will use the Igbo's in 2023 to retain the presidency and nothing will happen, because both the Igbo's and the Yoruba's are foolish. How can the most two advanced and educated ethnic group allow the most backward and illiterate ethnic group to govern and manage them and expect positive development , Can one give what he doesn't have.

I read on Nairaland that one Yerima Shettima President-General of Arewa Youth Consultative Forum saying that the North will lobby the Southeast for 2023 presidency and one of his argument is that the Igbo's are are not yet organised and ready to take over the office of the president of Nigeria. In the comment section of that report i was amazed by the comment from the southerners; Igbo's and Yoruba's, while the Igbo's appears to be happy that the North has betrayed and abandoned the Yoruba's on the other hand the Yoruba's appeared to be happy that the Igbo's will never get to the presidency in the possible future ( you can see why i call them the two foolish ethnic group of the south).

Some of the statement of Yerima Shettima are "You can’t have a son, on one hand, calling for the separation of the country and on the other hand, you are asking to be trusted with the office of the presidency. Shettima went further by stating that the issue of power is that of trust, once there is no trust nobody will give you power" (obliviously referring to Nnadi kanu and IPOB) now to my question.

Nnadi Kanu and IPOB, Boko Haram and Fulani terrorist who poses more threat to the division or separation of Nigeria. Despite all the well known, organised and well established terrorist groups from the North the south has continued to give them support, they needed to take over the position of the number one office in Nigeria.

In 2015 he Yoruba's supported the APC(North) because majority of the south westerners (Yoruba's) believed that the GEJ administration gave more political powers to the Igbos (though i believe that GEJ government was a huge failure) despite Boko Haram publicly naming Buhari as one of their spokes person some time ago before the 2015 general election that saw the same Buhari becoming the president of Nigeria ( a stack illiterate with a professor of law as his vice). Could Boko Haram terrorists have named someone they dont know or trust? (some of us are still surprise as to why the so called repented Boko Haram boys are given attention and support by PMB administration.

Mark my word in 2023 the North will retain the presidency using the Igbos just like they used the Yoruba's because now the Igbos would want to pay back the Yoruba's for voting out GEJ in 2015 and also voting against peter obi's vice presidential candidacy in 2019 and at the end the North will retain power and nothing will happen, other than the two Foolish ethnic group of the south to continue attacking, fighting and abusing each other on and out of social media while the illiterate North holds tight on to power.


THE FOOLISH SOUTH!!

Man, this has been my perspective since DAY NUMBER ONE. If I point it out to people here in the States and in Nigeria, they do not take serious because they are so busy claiming loyalty that they cannot see their toes from where they stand. Your mind is an extension of my political observation. This is well-articulated. Keep it up!

George Orwell was right, when he depicted this level of human ignorance and manipulation with a novel called The Animal Farm. There is nothing else that encapsulates the Nigerian political and legal system. It is a zoo with different colors of animals operating in the disguise of the same species.

How can Nigeria call itself a federation when the whole North practices different political and legal systems from the rest of the country? Bloody fools!

Obviously, Nigeria cannot be a federation or a republic at all. This is because its federal constitution endorses civil rights and freedom of speech. Yet, a subset of it snatches them away from other citizens in a particular impoverish section of the country known as the Almighty Improverished North. The only backward region where religious and civil suppression are championed more than the Federation's constitutions.

Take a good around other regions of Nigeria. Particularly the Yoruba states, there are Muslims there. However, Yoruba states observe the Federation so-called constitutions. You do not see the State of Lagos prosecuting its citizens using an archaic remnants of Arab barbarism called Sharia Law. No, instead you see the states with the rest of Southern States prosecuting according the federal laws. Since this is the environment, Igbo , Yoruba, Ijaw and other southern rappers can rap whatever they want. Jesus is teased. God is toasted. Sex is appreciated. Love is caricatured. Yet, the court of laws- both state and federal levels cannot infringe on these rights because they know what these federal laws are. And, they hold the fundamentals at high esteem although they screw up the rest.

On the other hand, the Poor North with its ignorant Islamic-schooled sons of fatherless whores would rather condemn a singer to death than obey the same federal laws than hold all the states. Kinda makes you wonder whether they think themselves above the rest of the country?

Come on. Think about it. Why would they sentence a singer to death for the so-called blasphemy of a dead Arabic prophet who has created so many Almajiri children and poverty in their midst? Let's forget the region's religious belief for an instant. What about the Nigerian constitution? Does it mean the region does not recognize it? If yes, then why are they still part of us? Obviously, the other Nigerian regions CANNOT sentence a citizen to death just because they sang about their perspective of God. Our Federal laws cannot allow the state courts to do that. So why the special privilege granted to the Impoverished North?

This Northern stance in Nigeria has severe repercussion. Y'all do not see this the way I do. Think about it. Does it mean that a Yoruba, Igbo, Ijaw, Efik, Anang or other citizens can be sentence to death in the Impoverished Northern States for expressing their perspective of God?? If yes, then can the states of the citizens retaliate against the Northern states for breaking federal laws that protect each state's citizen? If no, won't that tell you now that Northern Nigeria is a different country from the rest of us? I mean once you cross into that dung hole, you are subjected to their own Archaic laws which are not bounded by Federal laws. As a result, it warrants the thoughts of non-inclusive into the Federation since federation citizens are subjected different laws once they cross into the Impoverished region.

Let's talk about this, shall we? I'd like to hear your perspectives, animals of the raging zoo.

With all due respect, I think you are whining. If this friend was in Nigeria, you would not be asking us why he is not talking to you. Since he or she is abroad, I will tell you why though. Well, it depends on some factors. These could be time difference, amount of responsibilities, number of jobs or work hours one does, new friends, and other reasons.

As a Nigerian living in Texas, I dropped some Nigerian friends that did not suit my current lifestyle. The ones I am in touch are loyal childhood friends that were for me, when I had nothing. And, they have always believed in me. Not once have they asked me for money. One of them called to tell me his mother was sick, but never asked for a penny. The conversation was not directed to finance; it was just a way to release the emotional stress on him. Out of the very few Nigerian friends who still share my life principles, I have encouraged three to leave the country. They are in developed countries now.

Never asked for a penny.

Now to the Nigerian friends I dropped, obviously these were not actually friends. I mean I had two bestfriends in secondary school, and they stopped keeping in touch when they got into FUTO. When I got into FUTO two years later, I made efforts to reconnect but I guess my swag no reach their big boys status o. So, I minded my business. Fast-forward a year later, I moved to the United States. I called them to reconnect, but they were doing big boys things. I cut them off. Three years ago, they heard I did a huge project in our city and my hometown. They rushed to reconnect, but it was too late. My thinking and lifestyle have surpassed them. They were losers. I could not even connect mentally during a conversation. It made me sad, and I cut them off completely in my life.

Besides these two, I had other Nigerian friends who I tried to connect with. That was during my first and second year in the States. People like my favorite physics and chemistry teachers. Everything was going greatly, until the chemistry teacher scammed me of 150,000 naira for his business. Never paid back at the agreed time, and he cut off all contact. He burnt himself a bridge that could have made him rich from my yearly stock-fish importations from Norway. Other so-called friends always texted and expected replies immediately. When I was busy at work, or with friends or even doing something important, they thought I was avoiding them. Sometimes, they blew up my phones. After a few hours, they resorted to insults. You know, try to remind you that without America, I would not have the guts to ignore their messages. Of course, I kicked them out of my life. No one wants that kind of negativity and stress in their lives. Inconsiderate bastards!

I will tell you why the Nigerian friends I am in touch with, have been with me all these years. They treat me the way I treat them- with respect, kindness and understanding. We literally grew from hungry poor kids to the men we are today. So, there is a kind of understanding there. If they text me and I do not reply, they know I am working hard to put provide food, access to health, and education to my family and people. Because of the nature of my job, I could go for days without replying a message. When I find the time to call them, they always appreciate it. It goes the same way with me when I reach out to them. Every conversation never mentioned money. Rather, it is about uplifting ourselves or an unfortunate mutual friend.

AND MORE IMPORTANTLY, CALL ON THE DAMN PHONE. Some busy adults do not have time to spend hours texting about irrelevant things.

If your friend is not keeping in touch with you, it is either huge responsibility, time management or simply because they have outgrown you. So, there will not be much to talk about with you.

LegendHero:


You guys and your usual wailing and tears over simple issues. All what we are doing here is just setting record straight and here you are attacking me personally just because I air my opinion.

I might not be where Innoson is right now, but at my current age, I am doing very good for myself. I am not even sure with all sincerity that Innoson achieved what I have currently achieved (educationally and financial wise) when he was in his mid-20s.

Ogbeni we are just starting and stop bringing all those emotional rubbish on here. Because I don't own an assembly plant doesn't imply that I can't air my opinions freely online.

You just made my point. You went to school, and he did not. If you weren't such a fool, you would appreciate his economic liberation of Nigerian youths by providing jobs. Instead, you are hearing measuring balls with him. Listen boy, go and write it down somewhere. With all the degrees you have, you cannot reach that creative non-formal educated Nigerian man's height. It must be painful, isn't it? You went to school. He did not.

LegendHero:


LOL.

Any man that has to say I am a king is no true king. I won't start chestbeating or wailing with what I have achieved on here BUT I am pretty sure you can't even come close financially to the people I employ in my co-owned non-bank MFI back home in Naija?

I don't know why you guys are wailing too much on this thread. It is not that serious especially when I am just showing the truth with credible sources.

Oh, are we beating chests now?

You are right though: No, I won't come close to it. I mean you are there jobless. I am here a medical doctor earning the kind of money that will pay your descendants living expenses for about 300 years (all things equal: say they remain in Nigeria, never left and grow old). As for owning a bank, bitch please!

For someone who owns a bank, you surely painfully jealous of Innonson. I mean he is a fellow entrepreneur.

gwafaeziokwu:





Drug manufacturing technology is not a Nigerian technology. Infact almost all pharmaceutical companies in Nigeria borrow drug formulation from British pharmacopedia with little tweak in active ingredients here and there. Can you now say that a company like Emzor do not manufacture paracetamol because the formular is not originally theirs. Use your brain for once and stop talking rubbish.


Innoson do not hide where he got his technology from. It is all over the internet. He is not in competition with the big boys in the industry who can afford high cost of R & D into new models. Badge Engineering is his sure bet to stay afloat until he gets to that point where he can give Nigeria a place on the map.

That is how Tata started! Look at the company now. Toyota started like that too. The owner was knocking out Ford cars prior to WWII. That is what I pointed out to this fool, but he would not see it. Once a technology is formed, it is copied by everyone. That is why car batteries, laptops, electric fans, generators, cars (sedan, trucks and SUVS) and planes have the same primary design with little tweaks. Innonson has created jobs for Nigerians there. I appreciate his efforts. He is not competing with anyone- the big dogs or other local manufacturers.

gwafaeziokwu:



What is on discuss is clearly above your pay grade. You lump together so many different terminologies to defend what you are ignorant about.

Control operations, subsidiary, franchise all in one post and then finally ask at the tail end what bagde engineering is. Meaning you are just talking for the sake of it. Let's even assume that Chinese control operations at IVM plant, what exactly are they controlling? Is it coupling of knocked down parts or actually fabricating from the scratch? If it is the later then you have no argument.

It doesn’t matter whose technology Innoson is using in his plant , what matters is that he utilizes the knowledge in manufacturing his vehicles to market standard.

Exactly! That is what I was trying to point out to this fool whose has nothing going on in his life like the rest of us. The Chinese knockout most of the American products- from military to basic phones. They did not import it. The designs are there for them to knockout. Innonson does the same. Does not matter what they look at alike. The shit that matters is that he has physical locations that build 80% of these mechanical structures with hundreds of Nigerian workers.
Look at the car batteries in the world- are they not the same designs? Do not mind internet warrior joor. Only an illiterate or a jobless so-called graduate will spend all day copying and re-posting post to bring down a Nigerian whose companies are providing jobs for jobless youths.

Come to think of it? The idiot cannot even get a job at Innonson or NORD. He is not that skillful. Someone tell the house Nigga to keep waiting for your colonial master

Iegendhero:


Stop wailing.

You should have advised your kinsmen that attacked NORD in the first place. I only respond to their ignorance.

And no, Innoson is just like the other several African companies selling rebadged Chinese cars. They are completely different from the example you gave about Toyota and the likes.

He is basically replicating everything on the Chinese car 100% even down to the rims. Check the Interior of the cars, they are 100% thesame without any difference.

I am not saying he won't grow later coz people always start from somewhere, but I presented that 100% of the cars by Innoson are Chinese cars because our people try to badmouth the new guy on the block Ford.

Let me give you an example. All vehicles bear a VIN which identifies the country of manufacture. Even if it was manufactured in a different country different from the home country, the VIN will bear the identity of the country of manufacture.

At least if Innoson is doing General Mechanical design or anything you want to call it, it should have still carried the name of the manufacturing company as Nigeria. Why is it that all his car VIN are branded Manufactured in China?

Below is Innoson. Everything is Chinese.

Chinese or not, you can never reach his height. His manufacturing companies employ a lot of Nigerians. His cars sale quite well. What Innonson is doing, you can never do what he has done. Your Grandfather did not. Your father did not. And, you will not. I mean Nigerians will remember Innonson once he is gone like EkeneDilichukwu and co. Must be painful to watch Innonson progress every day? Everyone cannot contribute to society, my little boy. Some of us will fight battles on the internet, while the rest will accomplish things in real life. Invincible people come and go. Such is life. It is what it is.

For that guy posting pictures of Chinese car brands and accusing Innonson of rebadging his cars, I want to make you aware of something you do not know about since you have never been to a developed country before.

Outside Nigeria- In developed international communities, there is something called General Mechanical Designs. These are designs of any mechanical structure that are open for anyone to copy and reproduce. They do not have PATENTS. Any engineering company can reproduce these designs. It does not mean they imported the mechanical structures and rebadge them. No!

Look at Toyoto trucks- Tundra and Tacoma designs, they look like Nissans and Fords. Here in the US, companies feed off each other's mechanical designs with little modifications to avoid lawsuits due to GENERAL MECHANICAL DESIGNS. The Chinese are well known for doing this. In fact, they are worst because they copy and reproduce every single mechanical design to its finest details.

On the other hand, Innonson does not import these cars. He follows General Mechanical Designs. Just like these Chinese knockoff American products or Americans knockoff each other's with little modifications to avoid lawsuits. So, Innonson is free to use the design as long as he can successfully reproduce it. That is the standard in the world.

There are other examples of this principle too. Your car batteries are the same design from different companies, aren't they? It does not mean one company imported and rebadged them. Nay, it is called General Mechanical Designs. All companies follow that. So before you open your stinking mouth to expose your rotten teeth in order to criticize a man whose companies give employment to jobless youths like you, travel outside Nigeria.

Besides, you are so pathetic. I cry for your soul. This is exactly why I left Nigeria. People like you scream about Nigerian unemployment rates, and people like Innonson provide employment by manufacturing cars; Instead, you turn around to bring him down. When he decides to move his company to Congo now, y'all will call him a traitor. slowpoke, go and park joor! Innonson and other Nigerian car manufacturers have come to stay. If I have to invest tens of thousands of dollars in Innonson to keep his company afloat, I would without a second thought!

Innonson had proven to me again that black man's reasoning capacity is equal to a European's. All my stay in the United States, everyone has been throwing to my face how Europeans did this or that. Innonson shows me he can copy and manufacture with ease just like the Chinese. His engineers are mostly Nigerians- Blacks like me manufacturing what Europeans think we could not. Of course, he has my support! You keep being a house nigga. The rest of us field niggas are fighting for total economic freedom and breaking out of these colonial master's chains called economic dependence.

Damn! They just had to have a professional black disgraced herself. Just look at how the other doctors stood silently and watched as their black colleague ranted on like a clueless idiot. She may be a doctor, but her practice is obviously limited since she has no idea what is going on. What do you expect from a Nigerian-trained doctor that moved to the US??

What an incompetent brat! This is why we have 4,000,000 damn infected Americans. And, we are still counting our losses. Y'all are not making our jobs around the world easy with this nonsense.

One of my girlfriend's friends caught the corona. She is dying. Just last week, we had a video call with her. She is confined in her house with oxygen tanks. She CANNOT breathe without artificial respiration. Her sons had to go away, so they cannot get it. Also, I know a woman that used to deliver food to us at the hospital. She got corona and she died within a week! Her husband was not even allowed to see her due to a high risk of infection.

For the so-called illiterate experts that are out there- people who think they know it all because of an out-dated medical education, hydroxychloroquine CANNOT kill a virus. IT IS MEANT FOR THE PROTIST GROUP. A protist is a microscopic organism that can cause a disease when it invades the body. A notable example is Plasmodium- which is responsible for MALARIA. Plasmodium is a parasite. It is its biological byproduct that causes malaria. Unlike plasmodium, a virus is NOT AN ORGANISM. It is a strand of RNA or DNA wrapped in a protein shealth.

What does it mean?

It means that once a virus finds its way to your body. Its outer protein coat has spikes that are codes. If its code matches the cellular code, your cells are tricked into accepting it thinking it is one of them. Once the virus goes into your cells, it tries to use your cell's chromosomes to replicate exact copies of itself. It will keep doing this, until your cells cannot hold it anymore. So your cells lyse themselves due to pressure to release the virus- meaning they burst. A notable example is the mouth sores (Herpes Virus). This is why cold sores are very infectious. It happens all the time too for infected people!

Now, malaria drugs are ineffective against viruses. This is because viruses cannot be knocked out by anti-malarial drugs, so that the virus can be eaten by your own body soldiers (white blood cells like phagocytes, T-Cells and B-Cells and Macrophages). A virus is a genetic code that becomes active inside your body. So why exactly are you looking to knock out with Malaria drugs and zinc??

The reason why anti-malaria works against Plasmodium is because they either numb them for the white blood cells to attack overwhelmingly, or they kill Plasmodium. Either way, Plasmodium will not be able to use its enzymes to get into cells in order to feed. Compare to Plasmodium, viruses are so small that Plasmodium will not even see them , if they lived in a world together!

I am angry that they had this black doctor say these things, when everyone in second year medical school knows that there are ONLY TWO ways of killing viruses in the body. First, viruses are killed in the body through vaccines(an antigen containing weak viruses) injected into the body. When the white blood cells see them, they can attack them successfully. When the virus are eaten, the phagocytes will regurgitate pieces of the virus to the B-Cells and T-Cells. These cells store the bits of the virus, so they can learn to recognize the virus entry again. And, use the strategy the phagocytes used for successful viral elimination. If you do not believe me, ready any advanced medical microbiology textbook or GOOGLE. The second way of killing virus is to stop their cycles. Viruses have cycles. From cell entry to cell lysis. Once anti-viral medication messes up one of the cycles, a whole generation can be wiped off due their inability to continue the cycles. The second way does not always work, because some viruses can recode their protein shells to match the cells. So, your white bloods cannot see them in the blood stream because they blend as body cells and white blood cells only attack foreign antigens (except in extremely rare cases like cancer and others). Also, anti-viral medication cannot work because the viruses are so smaller than cells that they can hide in your cell nucleus. There is no way a drug can reach them or even white blood cells. White blood cells do not even go into cells to attack! They have to get the virus before it goes into the cells. Sometimes, a cell has to die early by bursting to send invasion signals to other cells who will create little gaps for white bloods to get in and attack whatever was released.

Besides this, anti-viral medications rarely attack the strong protein coat of viruses. That is why cold sores, hepatitis A B C , HPV, HIV and others do not have anti-viral cure. Rather Hepatitis and HPV have some sorta vaccines to introduce weak viruses that your body can take care of and store the memory of attack for next viral invasion.

Anyways, enough of microbiology.

Now, it takes a fool to say COVID is not real. It is as real as you. And, it has come to stay like HIV and others. Remember HIV killed millions during its early stages until it was regulated? Still no cure today. There are actually no viral cure. Only vaccines help boost our body soldiers- the white blood cells. That is why HIV first kills off your white blood cells, before cell entry. So, protect yourself. Wear masks. Just because a person is a doctor does not mean they have all the answers. Medical doctors ARE NOT research scientists. If scientists say to wash hands regularly, wear mask and stay six feet, just shut your trap and do it. Stop being selfish. Stop spreading fake news with no evidence. And Good God, stop being an instrument of mass infection!

It is as simple as that. Geez!

Firstly,

Whoever came up with this idea is a stagnant fool. Offering two cows for a gun as a mean to stop banditry is the most ineffective way to stop banditry. This is because it does not address the issue that gave birth to banditry in the first place. Also, the bandit will sell the two cows to buy as many as five more guns since the cost of a cow can buy about three of the Russian-made model. This is according to research done by the developed societies, as why accessibility to gun in third worlds is easier than accessibility to food. So, Zamfara state's plan to offer two cows for a bandit's gun is not effective at all since it empowers the bandit to enlarge his arsenal. This is by trading his broken, old or rusty guns for two cows that will buy new ones for him or her.

Secondly, this attempt by Zamfara state to reduce crime is ineffective because it offers a short-term solution to banditry. By short-term solution, I mean what on earth happens after the two cows are sold or eaten by the bandit? It points to the questions of what do they do then. Of course, they will return back to banditry due to nothing else to keep them occupied. Besides, bandits do not have the patience to raise two cows into generations of cows to sell. That is why they are bandits, O great political fools! The minds of bandits have been drilled to follow a quick-rich scheme. The floated ideology that a bandit is a bandit because he has nothing else to do, is partly true. The rest is an excuse to cause mayhem to innocent citizens who wear the same shoes as them, but have found ways to stay busy and create a sustainable means of income for themselves. I sincerely believe that Zamfara state government could have done better.

Thirdly, why offer good incentives to criminals when your state citizens are suffering, your children are begging in school instead of being in schools, or even hunger is punishing the living lights out of enlightened state citizens? It does not make sense at all. I feel like Zamfara state is rewarding them, after these elements of irreducible rascality have ravaged their land and citizens. It is Zamfara state's responsibilities to take care of their citizens first. Since the bandits have made life miserable for them, the two cows per bandit could help a very poor Northern family with many kids. Even selling a cow by the family could help them create small businesses (raise about 1000 chickens for meat and eggs, and still have some change?). The decision to give away two cows to hot-headed impatient armed rascals to reduce banditry is not the way to go.

Fourthly, it is the police job to reduce banditry and state job to make sure citizens are taken care of. I bet Zamfara state has federal police all over the state. Obviously, they are not doing their jobs. So, direct any money meant for the police to the citizens. If the police are doing their jobs, but they are thin, then support them to help take care of these damn bandits. If the state can afford to give two cows to bandits while millions of people are hungry during this COVID-19 era, they can afford to equip the police.

Now enough of this rant, let me offer my solutions before the vein on my head pops from anger at this reckless move of the Zamfara state government. Here are my solution:

First, enforce your state laws on crime. If a bandit is caught, prosecute him to the highest extent allowed by the state law. This is after you have investigated him or her in order to inquire about the members of the bandit and their affiliated groups. This is going to help catch many of them. Put their faces on the television. Televise their prosecution in the court. If this does not deter others from joining banditry, put posters with rewards of wanted bandits all over state media: newspapers, radio and televisions. It will not cost a dime since it is state-run media. Remember the days when armed banditry was rampant in the 70s, and the police caught up with every single one of them? This was how it was done. The infamous bandit, Anini, had his wanted posters all over federal and state run media. That was how he was tracked down to a LovePeddler house. No government offered two cows for his gun. He would not have taken the cows anyways. Or probably take the cows, sell them and buy more guns. Bandits are arrogant ego-maniac bastards. That is why they commit crimes, as if they are not touchable.

Secondly, work with your local DSS. You cannot tell me that the Nigerian DSS cannot locate anyone they want to locate. The Nigerian investigative branch is very advanced. I can tell you this because when criminals are really wanted by the state, they are caught. Look at the infamous bandits that operated all over Nigeria, they were caught. Even Osisikankwu whose bandit mercilessly dealt with Aba city for months, was located, caught and shot. Thank God! When Nigerian state governments really care about their citizens, they work with DSS to help curb crimes. The DSS is there for state government to use. They cannot just waltz and do whatever they want, because they are a federal entity. The state has to let them know what they want. Nigeria is too small for anyone to hide, unless the government is hiding them!

Thirdly, the Zamfara state government should create incentives to promote job opportunities. What if the cost of the cows that are being donated to the bandits, are used to start industrial scale poultry farms in each local government area of the state? People in each local government will feel the ripple effect. This is because people will be employed, earn salary and have food available to them. I have always preached that the poultry farm is the salvation of the average man or woman. This is because it costs next to nothing to start one! Besides this point, employed people will work hard to make sure that no bandit robs the place. This is because local bandits are known by local people. When the bandits want to take food away from the mouth of people, they will let the state security agency know.

Wow! I seriously cannot fathom the irresponsibility of the person that came up with giving two cows to bandits to stop banditry. It shows a lack of creative and productive intelligence on his or her part. Kinda makes one wonder whether such a person should be given a political position. Good Grief!

Hello there!

I read what you put up, and I must say that this is quite a way of displacing your brother to the world. You must have had good intentions when you wrote this, but your article projects great dislike for your blood kin. That's awful. Now, to enlighten you:

Your brother is going through a mental phenomena that is completely normal. The phenomena is called learning difficulty. It could be due to lack of interest because of low levels of intrigue, or it could just be a biological predisposition. You may not agree with this because you keep projecting your standards on him, while neglecting the fact that people are unique in their own ways. There are literally millions of human beings around the world with learning difficulty. These are/were people who can't cram arithmetic formulae like you and regurgitate them to solve theoretical problems on papers. Notable examples include some billionaires you may know: Henry Ford, Steve Jobs, Richard Branson and so many others. Richard Branson alone had dyslexia. He failed standard tests. It got to a point when his principal told him that he will either end up in prison or be a millionaire. Guess what? He is one of the richest men alive today, and he still has learning difficulties!

What is my point? It is the absolute fact that people with learning disabilities are not morons or "dumb". Some are just not intrigued in a way that fascinates them at the same of your fascination in similar topics or subjects. History has shown us that the 1% of the world's population that controls more than 70% of the world's wealth are actually people who never did well in school. Cramming and regurgitating words and ideas in school don't make a successful man or woman in the real world out there. Instead, it creates another worker bee that adds value to billion-dollar companies, not society. The latter explains the reason why majority of Nigerian graduates CANNOT start up a venture successfully or even grow it to such a societal value level. You know, not everyone is good as cramming and regurgitating stuff like you. Someone may not be adept at it in school, but put them in practical aspects of life, and they will excel in the art of living beyond your wildest dreams. Or shall I say "theoretical dreams"?

You said your brother keeps to himself. Well, have you gotten to know what he likes? Or even the things that intrigue him? I really doubt it. It feels like you are watching from the outside; you judge and evaluate him using your own standards. He can never meet those standards. You already know that. It would be nice to go easy on him. Pressure makes kids withdraw. Get to know your brother. By that, I don't mean focusing on his "Dull qualities" as you call it. I mean really focus on his good side. Encourage him when you see him doing the things he likes to do. An example is when you see him playing a game of football with his friends or people, don't yell at him to go do his homework. Nay, don't do that. Instead, cheer for him, and ask how the game made him feel. After football and a shower, then a homework could happily follow (In which , you lend your almighty arithmetic brain in a creative way).

Let me elaborate more on cheering him during a sports game. A question like, "How did you feel when you scored a goal?" can create a connection that will open so many opportunities for you to positively influence the kid than the orders you bark. And yes, I know you bark orders because we all did too since we are older than our siblings . Everyone wants to be liked. If you or anyone else in the family is constantly reminding the kid of his limitations, how on earth is he supposed to stay motivated to learn? He won't even have the confidence to do that.

Listen, your brother reminds me of myself when I was a teen. I kept to myself when I was a teen. This is because I liked to think and I enjoyed reading novels. My teachers taught I would amount to nothing because I could not speak good English grammar. I could write very well though. I was the kind of kid that everyone laughs at in class. You know the kind that arithmetic people like you bully or give a nickname that stick for awhile. For some reasons, I could not understand mathematics (I had this difficulty from primary school to SS1). My father did not believe in me. He always remarked that school education was not meant for me. He would grumbled whenever he handed me my school fees. He even suggested sending me on an apprenticeship to one of his cousins to learn a trade. Of course, I refused. I told I would jump off Head Bridge in Onitsha if he did.

When I got to senior secondary school, I had a physics teacher that encouraged me despite my learning challenges. His name was Mr. Ken; this guy was born to teach. He not only taught, but inspired kids like me then to become a better version of themselves through public speaking, student social gatherings/debate, sports and even invited eastern Indians to talk to us about needlework knitting! It made a huge difference because at the end of the SS1 third term, I started to become fascinated by physics. I could not get all I wanted from Physics because i lacked the mathematical skills to understand its concepts. So, I had to enjoy mathematics in order to fully understand Physics theorems. By SS3, I became the 4th best student in Onitsha. This is because we took a state exam to select three Onitsha best students that will represent our city in a mathematics competition. I came 4th out of a few hundred students from many schools. I did not qualify, but boy- were my classmates and teacher so proud of me! I made so many friends as a result that even 9 years after High school graduation, I am still friends with a lot of them. The junior worshipped me. Here I am today- Mr. "Dullard", in the United States of America making top dollars while paying schools of some family members, building projects that are adding value to the residents of my native city and a few more that will benefit Nigeria in afew years.

It is not about the books, degrees or name of Federal university you go to. It is about having a conducive environment to follow your passion. If I had gone to "Boy" as the Igbos call apprenticeship- due to my lack of interest in school and formal education then, I would never have had a quarter of the success I have today. Today, I still have learning difficulties. Some Americans still think I am dull lol That's fine because they don't even know I am way more successful than them, although we have the same job position or they are above me in the corporate ladder. Cars, clothes and good grammar don't count just like cramming and regurgitating the crap majority of us are taught in schools. Your brother is a kid for Christ sake. The poor bastard is probably under immense pressure and confusion. So, better stop putting your brother down and you better start lifting him up!

1. At the bolded, that's a student VISA right?

2. If applying for Physician assistance programme, and I'm married here in Nigeria to a Nigerian wife, will it increase my chances of having my student VISA approved? Because I have strong home ties.

3. While doing the physician assistance programme as a married person, can I in the long run obtain green card while studying and working? Especially without having to marry a USA citizen.

4. If I bear children here in Nigeria before obtaining the supposed USA green card from my employer or school, will they be able to obtain citizenship as well, even though they were born before their father became citizens.

5. Having obtained green card, can I now go on to run an MD programme, supported by student loans since I'm a citizen? I understand it's very long years. But the toughest roads are the most rewarding.

6. Someone advised I should come there as single, while applying for a Masters degree programme, run it, work, marry a citizen, get green card and run my MD program. But I have a woman here who has really tried for me and she's looking forward we get married. Wouldn't want to hurt her by cutting it off after many years, so that's why I'm trying to access that other route I had been listing.

7. Thanks very much for your deep insight and effort to enlighten me. I'm sorry for talking about money. I understand now Americans don't like bribery. I'm deeply sorry. Thanks once again. God bless you.

Physician Assistance is for everyone. The catch is that you will not be able to practice outside the US. It was a program specially created to suit the needs of American hospitals and clinics since the last 70 years now.

You do not have to marry a citizen to be a citizen. Even joining the military (reserve), automatically gets you citizenship within one year. All you do is come in once a month for your fitness check as a reserve and the military pays 100% of school fees plus expenses tied to your education. However, to join the military is only for people with Green Card (Permanent Residence); people who came with immigrant visa. You can still get work permit with student visa since you will be in the medical sector. Your employer can sponsor your green card if they find you valuable or if your could convince them that you are valuable to them. Once you have Green Card, you are free to bring whomever you want as long as they are family.

You are married. Respect your marriage. Don't throw away your marriage for a woman here who would not respect you. Marrying here for the papers is A BAD IDEA. You will be foot mat for your American wife. Besides, your wife has been there for you. There is no need to discard her to come here.

Yes, you can bring your wife with you if you could show that you can support you two here. I know an Iranian woman I did a summer research with when I was going to UTSA. She came with her husband on a student visa. They were both doing their PHDs there. They had work permits, although they had student visas.

In fact, I know a Nigerian girl that came with student visa. She did a two year PT degree. And now, she is trying to complete the remaining two years in a university and get a Bachelor's degree. She has work permit that lets her work full time. She lives comfortably and she makes a lot of money monthly as a medical professional.

Finally, any advice that I give or someone else gives you won't do much because it is the interviewer that will decide at the end. They are quite strict over there. I believe that having a wife should be able to give you advantage because they will see that as an incentive to come back after school. Single people finding it hard because they know people like that intend to stay after school.

If you ask me though, I'd say your chances of coming here is slim given the current hard stance to immigration and the leadership at federal level. Your chance is quite high with Australia. My kinsman from village kindred and friend at FUTO left for Australia 7 months ago. He is working two jobs now, while doing Masters in IT. You may want to consider great options before you give your money freely to the embassy.

I tell you this because when I got rejected my third time at the embassy in Victorian Island Lagos, it was not because I did not qualify. The young American said everything is in order, and he was going to tell me my visa will be mailed to a DHL. However, his supervisor walked in. He whispered something in the man's ears. When he left, the young interviewer's attitude changed. He even lost his smile. He denied my papers. You have to understand the odds are great agains

flexyndavis:

which type of business will you advice him to go,that will easily return the cash,just ur advice.

Depends on how good your patience is. I'll advice you to steer from any post or success story that offers quick wealth. It is usually a loser trying to trick a sucker into giving up his hard-earned money.

Now back to my advice, you need to invest your money, don't you? What you need is a poultry farm. Breed broilers; they take 4 weeks to mature. The broiler meat does not have season. They sell like craze when I was back home. It does not cost more than 70 naira to buy a chick (I don't know much they sell for now). If you are patient enough, you will be amply rewarded. Layers are even better; however, they take a long time- about 6 months to start laying. If you have 50, 3 will probably die. Raise 47 and you will get at least 47 eggs per day when they are ready. That's about 1000 naira or so every day.

Remember, raising these do not require your attention 24/7. Chickens can take care of themselves as long as you provide the conditions of a healthy living.

Need money real quickly? Get into Okporoko or Crayfish. Start with a bale. Go into market and make inquiries of retail prices. Set up a table, divide into portions and start selling. If you feel like it is too local, I did it too. When I was 13 and I was sent on two months school holiday to my maternal grandparents' in Aba, I hawked those. I convinced my grandmother to buy me a bale which i hawked in a market called Ahia Ohuru (I don't know if it is still called that name) and I paid her back the money. The angelic woman never took a penny from my profits. My middle class parents or maternal grandfather never knew. Made 40K before returning back to onitsha at the end of my holiday. It was a secret my grandma and me knew only. She carried it to her grave in 2016. Now, you know too.

Hone your patience. Step out of your comfort zone. Watch money trickled in slowly if you have a solid plan.

samicine:
I've gone through the whole thread, and read every single comment, and the predominant one which is " stay with your mother".

I've made up my mind to stay though .
I'm not trying to make my mother the villain in a seemingly sob story to seek validation from strangers. like I said, I did not take my mother's money. I've told her I work and she knows I have such money in my account because I told her I'm saving up for a computer to continue what I've been doing, she knows and she told me its a good idea. But her sudden change is freakishly scary. maybe she thinks I stole her money to add to the one I have to get a computer. I don't really know. But before the missing money, she knows of my plans.

I just needed advice and guidance, because I'm impulsive and sometimes my emotions get the better of me. I won't form hard man, hard man.

some people accused me of being a thief, some accused me of being stingy and not humble. In all, I'll say thank you and to the ones that gave reasonable advice. I value it. still, Thank you.

and to the ones who didn't understand the post, please do read again and I hope you grasp this time around.

It is your decision. Everything said here was quite subjective. You have always known this. You just posted this to make you feel better. At the end, you are the only that know your conditions, strengths and weaknesses. This is because you knew there was no way you would leave your comfort zone. This is probably not the first time this kind of incident has happened. And, it is not going to be the last time.
However, it is better to contribute monthly to your family living expenses if you are going to live with your mother. It will increase her respect for you. She certainly not accuse you again. This is because it will prove to her that you can kinda support yourself; and, you do not need her money. Let us know how it goes in a few months.

BlindedIrony,

If you read your name please just take one minute to skim my post.

I don't believe my destiny is in Nigeria, ever since I was little as 9years old I had fantasized about USA. Grace has not shined on me yet due to financial limitations.

I am in 400level studying pharmacy here. I will be awarded Bachelor of pharmacy degree upon completing my programme next year.

However, i found out that USA issue PharmD. Meaning doctor of pharmacy, in contrast to what is issued here, and I don't know if i can transfer to USA with that.

So please, is it possible to come to the USA after my graduation and practise there as a Pharmacist, with just my Bpharm, or do they allow only PharmD degree holders?

Any information?

I just desperately need a US based "friend" who can assist me with advice and guide my direction to the USA.

I don't mind paying him any amount if he guides me successfully until I arrive my real fatherland.

See i'll likely have suicidal thoughts if i don't realize my American ambitions.

Please reply me sir.

Breathing Nigerian air depresses me every second and you don't understand what i've went through as first son. Note: I'm 24 year old and from Ebonyi state.

Oga, no one needs your money (with all due respect). Also, help here cannot be sort by offering money, especially to a virtual person. This is how people get duped. I would not want that for you.

To your questions of coming here, it is hard to start working in all the 50 states as a foreign medical graduate ( as a Anesthiologist, MD, DO, Pharmacist). This is because the US is set up in such a way that medical professionals that want to work in their medical sector, have to pass through their qualifications of their certificates and licensure. They are very strict with international medical graduates. Even medical doctors from other developed nations can not work here without passing through the US medical schools and getting license again to get license to practice. This is because THERE ARE SO MANY RULES AND STANDARDS when it comes to the medical sector here.

Take for instance, Nigerian medical schools and some other developed countries let students enter directly after senior highschool graduation. Here, you must have a Bachelor's degree to get into medical school. Not just only Bachelor's degree, but also take some classes that are mandatory. You are allowed to take the MCAT after you have met these requirements. Once accepted, you are going to go through four years of medical schools (two years in class learning, two years clinical rotations at hospitals). Then, you graduate from Medical school. AND YOU ARE NOT ALLOWED TO PRACTICE until after you have completed residence (which is another 2 to 6 years depending on your specialty). For instance, an Orthopedic surgeon may spend 12 years in school (medical school and residence), not including his 4 years Bachelor's degree program. That's why surgeons here make about $350,000 to $750,000 a year depending on specialty and skills.

Now as for Pharmaceutical colleges, you need a Bachelor's degree too be,fore you go into the program. However, some colleges offer classes where you can only do two years in a regular college before you transfer directly to the Pharmaceutical school. It will take about 4 years to finish the program (It depends on the state or college. Each state have their own license rules. However, education and training requirements are always in the same Federal standards so anyone can work in any state they choose). The pharmacy school here and the one in Nigeria is not the same or equivalent. The Nigerian idea of the pharmacy here is what Americans called PharmTech. It is a two year degree training. After which you take licensure exam to be able to work. NB: The main Pharmacy program takes time, and you earn Doctor of Pharmacy after graduation. Starting salary is around $110,000 to $150,000; about $50-something per hour. Compared to a PharmTech who makes about $23 per hour or $30,000 to $42,000 range annually.

Also, everything here has a License and you have to take an exam before you are able to work in a field. Even a welding education needs a license to practice after graduation. I observe that this is to maintain standards. When you fail to maintain standards, your license can also be taken away regardless of how rich, skillful or famous you are. This is why your Nigerian pharmacy degree will not work here. Also, it has nothing to do with your being Nigerian. It is the same for any other international professional. It is about different system of standards.

My advice for you would be to come and do Physician Assistance program here since you already have a degree. It is a two year masters degree program. You go to medical school for two years. The only difference between you and a medical doctor is that an MD did four years and you did two. Also, you are licensed to operate under an MD supervision. Supervision doesn't mean the MD will be watching all the time. It means you consult with an MD in decision making. You are licensed to diagnose illnesses, prescribe medicines and perform minor surgeries (minor surgeries are only under a surgeon supervision). Starting salary is $90,000 a year. After tax, you will take home about $78,000. Not bad!

I'll give you a tip! It is this: Even with student visas, your chances of being employed by a hospital who will sponsor you to live here after graduation is high as a medical professional. If you are doctor (Anesthesiologist or Doctor of Medicine), THE COUNTRY WILL DEFINITELY TRY TO RETAIN YOU. This is because you are very valuable member of the society. Most people do not know that. That's free of charge from me

Let me know if you have more questions. It may take me time to reply, but I promise to reply to them when I get a chance to come online here. Good luck, man!

Listen good man, it is not normal for adults to still live with their parents after 20 years old. I understand your situation due to Nigerian economic situation. However, in developed countries, kids leave their parents once they turn 18. In Igboland, young men who go into trading or learn a trade at a young age become independent from their parents around 20 years. I am Onitsha born and bred. So, it is not really an Oyibo thing.

That brings me to the reason why i decided to respond. Your mother is obviously tired of supporting you. This is her way of making you leave. Do not blame her. She is doing you a favor. If you actually think about it, you will see that she doesn't have the heart to kick you out as a mother. This is due to her love for you. However, she wants you to be able to chart your own way like some of the young men around the world who already have the skills necessary to support themselves (I'll come to the skills shortly). Some women are like that. They don't want to tell you upfront or face to face what they want, so they use subtle actions to tell you. Note: These are only done by women with poor communication skills. It seems it is a single parent household. DO NOT BLAME HER.

Now to the set of skills you possess. Good man, you are an adult now with a set of skills that are highly valued in today's society. You can design a website, write and afford to make an income currently. This is a tech trade skill. Use what you have right now to chart your course. I saw someone here advice you to wait until NYSC. No, do not do that. Comfort creates problems in the long run. Such problems include not having problem-dealing skill set when you are finally a graduate. You will find it extremely hard to survive out there even after NYSC. This is because you did not acquire the skills you should have acquired living alone or with roommates as a young man. There are ages a man has to learn a particular skill. Once you miss a certain skill in a particular age, it is hard to learn them later in life as an older man. I know as a young man that you are, you probably have a lot of time in your hands. Start a blog while working for the current job you have. Milk the hell out of the current skill set you have, so you can escape having your self-esteem crushed. Trust me, it takes longer to recover from a crushed self-esteem. You don't want to be that newly graduate guy in an office with little confidence.

Why am I telling you? Been there, done that. My situation was not like yours. I was constantly underestimated by everyone. I could not even express myself much because I live under my parents' roof. This was partly due to Igbo culture of respect, partly because my father has rights to the apt we used to live. I knew if I become a man in Nigeria (under my parents roof), I'd be messed up for life. And it will take me years to acquire the life skills necessary to succeed as a man. So at the age of 21 years while I was still studying at FUTO, I moved to the US after my immigrant visa got rejected 3 times. No one in my family or friend circles contributed a penny! I had nobody in the US- no friends, no family and nothing at all, but afew hundred dollars I saved from teaching JAMB students mathematics for 2 years. It was not easy. It took me a month to find a job, 4 months to make $11.25 per hour from the lowest wage ($7 per hour) I was making then. Fast-forward 6 years later, I have two degrees and I am making 3 times hat per hour. My parents live in a house I built for them... so many wonderful things have happened since I was 21. Both the good, the bad and the ugly. Has life been easy? Nay, life is not easy. However, I took my chance and I made it life bearable for me and the people around. I still take the chance every day as a late twenties man now. I wake up happily everyday knowing I carved an independent man out of a scared confused young man who was so afraid of the future. You- my man, are true definition of everything good in life. Arise and Become the captain of your ship!

Good luck.

NB: On a second thought, you could just be an attention-seeking victim-mentality good-for-nothing young man with social anxiety, crippling low self-esteem and Peter-pan syndrome. I come to this conclusion after coming across your other posts on your profile. One of your posts is repulsive. You definitely have a problem. I could be wrong. By God, I hope I am!

Ehmmm... Let me clear some misconception about the US that some people who have never been there believe. First thing first:

1) The number of homeless people in America is ACTUALLY 552,280, not 50 million like an idiot here mentioned earlier. This is exactly the data on whitehouse.gov. These data are accurate (unlike the numbers our Nigerian politicians throw around). American employment, social, disabled and other social data are gotten from social security and other records. An example goes like this: Say the American population is 350 million (twice Nigerian population, yet one of its 50 states called Texas is bigger than Nigeria), and one person gets a job, sick or disabled, the government track this because it is the only way people are helped. So there you go, folks, 552280 homeless people out of 327 million population. Not bad at all, right?! I was impressed too, so I took classes during my college years on how it happened to fully understand it.
2) There are so many jobs opportunities that they are constantly allowing hundreds of thousands of people into their country to fill the job vacancies. If you know anyone that moves to the US and he or she has problems finding a job, that is because they came with a visitor's visa. So, they overstayed and they wouldn't go back. You can't get a job (white or black) without a social security number (SSN). So, the jobless Nigerians you know here probably came with student visas or visitors. That's illegal when they try to work; when they do, it is probably shitty jobs like car washes where they are paid under the table (no tax). When they are discovered, they get in trouble along with the company that employed them. However, the Nigerians who came through the legal way- immigration visas are ALWAYS GAINFULLY employed. I have not met the so-called jobless Nigerians here, and I am yet to see one looking for a job. I know hundreds of Nigerians- all educated professionals or students.
3) There is NO SUCH THING AS OPEN DISCRIMINATION. This is not the pre-1960s. There is subtle racism or bias, but it is individuals. Mostly, few uneducated whites; not just afew whites, other races have afew people with bias and racism (Y'all have seen the videos). Americans revered industrious, educated and socially people. As long as you are these, Americans will LOVE THE SHIT OUT OF YOU. My first job here, my boss fired a co-worker (white) because he gossiped about my accent and African background. In college, I had many of the San Antonio College smartest students who adorned me because they taught I was smarter than them. God knows we were all in the same shoes. All my professors liked my Nigerian heritage. It got to the point where I got a scholarship (he was not qualified for) and a campus job for a warri student on student visa. I just talked to my history professor about the student's academic performance, and the professor was very eager to meet him. After a conversation to ascertain the young man's character, the professor was impressed. My warri friend got the scholarship. The campus job was later in his second year.
4)Most Americans have more than $1000 in their accounts, not less than $1000 like someone said here. I will tell you why. Most Americans have very good paying jobs. The population has very poor people in their midst, but most of these poor people are not like the poor people of the third world societies- they are trained technicians (some- not all). They can afford cars, meals and other necessities just like the rich and the middle class can afford. The only difference is that they can afford the cheap versions or small versions. In fact, there is an American joke that the poor can afford exactly the same things as the rich, just the smaller version. Example: A toyota corolla vs. a Mercedes benz. Understand?
Let me explain better. America has society classes (also called tax or income bracket): Upper class ($1,000,000 and above annual income), Upper Middle class ($80,000 to about $900,000 annual income), lower middle class ($30,000 to $70,000 annual income), lower class ($8,000 to $29,000) and poor (less than $8,000). The latter and former are usually confused, but they are not the same. Majority of Americans are middle class. They save a lot of money too. The reason why some may have less than $1000 in their account is because they have IRAs or other variety of retirement funds. When you have a job here, you set up a retirement fund where you contribute a TINY portion of their wages. The TINY portion is invested in stocks, mutual funds, trusts, and other financial packages. 64.8% of Americans own a house! Google it. That's 209,280,000 homeowners out of its 327,000,000 million people. I know people paint America as bad, but you have to be here to see for yourself.
5) Some said Chicago is bad. Well, it has a crime rate slightly higher than other cities in the US but not like the bad you see on movies. Every city has a low income side aka ghetto. However, the funny part is this low income part looks like the best developed part of Nigeria . The only difference is that the crime rate is high and it is the low income part of town. They still have electricity and social amenities like the rest of the city. The difference is that it is the low income part of town lol You won't even know until someone tells you, and also perhaps the cheap-looking houses.

Well... I guess that completes it. This is the only country I know where citizens of the most developed nations are trying to get into. Germans, Japaneses, English, French and so on lol I can tell you this because I saw many of them when I went in to swear on citizenship ceremony. People keep saying Nigeria is not bad, but you don't know how Nigeria is until you move out of it. I had PTSD for afew years after I moved here because the only thing separating my house from my street is just an inch of glass. My Nigerian mentality kept thinking armed robbers were going to break in. This is my 6th year, and I still take 1am or 2am walk when I can't sleep at night. That's how secure the country is.

Also, in case of fire or emergency, it takes 4 mins for firemen or police to come to you. It CANNOT exceed 4 mins. It is the same anywhere in the US. Oh! Before I forgot, I made $11.25 per hour in my first year as a new immigrant with no friends or family. After tax, I brought home about $25,000. And it was a shitty job lol all I did then in 2014 was greet people from 9am to 5pm with 3 breaks! Pay was biweekly, twice a month plus federal law says no one can work 40 hours per week or else, the company will pay you your regular wage + half your wage per hour (back in 2014: $11.25 + $5.63 per hour). IMAGINE WHAT IT IS NOW AS A MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL! You still think we regret leaving Nigeria??

What is there to miss in Nigeria? The Nigerian people are here- the restaurant (the better version), culture and cultural festivals. If we miss the culture too much, we come back home and flex , then go back home. Ever wonder why majority of American citizens (from all countries in the world never go back to live permanently in their native countries? Man abeg pack aside.

Hello,

As a diaspora living in the States, I want you to know that you are the world's most ridiculous idiot. What kind of insect made its way to your brain to whisper that diaspora regret living Nigeria??

I am 28 years old. I have a saying I adopted when I graduated in Nigeria and I could not find a job. It goes like this, "ANYWHERE , BUT NIGERIA." Now, you may ask why a former patriot like me says something like. Well, let's look at it this way. There are things I regretted about not getting out of Nigeria sooner than I did. A lot of diaspora (afew hundreds) told me the same. They are:

1) I am so glad I don't have to witness mob justices on innocent and accused peoples who don't have the opportunity to be trialed in court. You have a bunch of devoted religious people that will lynch someone today and tomorrow you will see them in churches smiling. It made me throw up many times when I was growing up.
2) I am so glad I don't have to see dead bodies on some Nigerian cities' streets on my way to work, school or to visit my friends. Sometimes, some of these corpses lay decaying for days, and people walk past them as if it is the norm! Well, I guess it is normal in Nigeria( Lagos, PH, NORTH, Onitsha... no city is excluded.)
3) I am glad the police doesn't harass me now just because I look and dress better than them.
4) It sucks that I had to spend 1/3 of my monthly salary just to charge my phone, and have electricity because of epileptic power supply.
5) I am so glad I don't have to be at bed at 10pm. In anywhere but Nigeria, cities are alive until the early hours of morning.
6) I don't have to put up with the Nigerian police inability to response to emergency.
7) Bank queues suck like hell there.
I no longer have to put up with mosquitoes on borrowed dracula teeth that suck the souls of hardworking men and women.
9) I don't have to lose my money to armed robbers now.
10) Armed robbers NO FIT come into my house here because American constitution gives all people rights to bear arms, unlike Nigeria where armed robbers fit come and command you for your house.
11) I don't have to take 11 classes in a semester. What am I a robot?? Here, the most are 4 classes per semester, and you can work too (full time and part time). Classes are very flexible.
12) I don't have to put up with professors who think they are better humans because they have degrees, yet their moral compasses are rusty and they beg me for money to grade my exams.
13) I don't worry about soldiers retaliating when they assault me because I can sue them now no matter their rank, and also they cannot come to my house because the Texan state law says I could shoot armed trespassers in my property.


There are million things we do not regret about leaving Nigeria. How on earth are we supposed to regret leaving a country that pays doctors 100K naira, when their American counterparts make $250,000 to $500,000 depending on surgery specialty?? It is people like you that often come up with very stupid diaspora shaming posts like this one. You cry of patriotism for a country that has never given me a kobo, taken my last kobo and deny me an opportunity to make a kobo! This is the Nigeria you want us to regret leaving.

Oh! As for regretting, I have no idea what you mean , but any diaspora can come back to visit and enjoy the culture whenever he or she wants. However, no one is going to leaving heaven for hell permanently, even if hell has the only fire that can roast yams.

First, you are a simp. You are the pure definition of a radical betamale provider. Now let me break your heart further, you little man-bitch. What i am going to write is going to hurt, but it is from experience and the pure truth.

Your wife cheats a lot. When I first read the text messages, I already know she is cheating. This is because when married women flirt without the intention of screwing, they usually come from the direction of self-approval. Meaning that they flirt so a man can tell them they still got the look and body; sorta like a way of feeling good about themselves. However, your wife went on a whole pole-sucking and orgasmic carousel riding. She bleeped that man that she was in contact with.

There is something called women hypergamy. It is a biological factor in human evolution. Women screw around while they have a nice man who provides financial comforts to them- they come home to this guy after screwing the man with the bad boy complex. Women tend to screw around every now and then- married or not. When a married woman is not screwing around, that is probably because she has not met anyone better than the husband. So, she would not want to risk it all. However, under a certain condition, she can still cheat. Your wife obviously does not respect you. The fact that she writes about opening legs to some men show she has already done it. You are the nice guy she comes home to because she knows you don't have options. Or perhaps you may never leave her. Your statement about her being the kind of woman every man wants tells us that you are Mr. Nice guy, and you did not do a lot of shaft/gear shifting with the opposite sex prior to meeting her. Women can tell that shit. Do you even have many friends?

You screwed up big time. When you discovered that she was texting other men about licking the balls and pulling their balls' hairs with her teeth, that is why you should have addressed the situation. What other evidence do you need? If you were a player prior to marriage, you could have used your skills to get her to confess. I bet when she does, she is going to say she slept with only one or two men. My friend, do not believe her. She slept with a lot.

I am not going to tell you what to do, but I can tell you this: when a woman cheats on you and you do not drop her like a bag of fleas, she WILL NEVER RESPECT you. She will start testing you. One day, you will come back home to a man giving her a big one on your matrimony bed. Listen, when we get married, we marry someone of great character and quality. We want a woman who can raise our children to have good morals if we suddenly die, your wife does not have it. I am sorry. She is not a good person. Listen say we bypass the moral character, she is still not worth it. This is because she does not respect you enough to stay faithful. It is your choice on what you want to do, but I think your kids need a great woman to raise them to be good men and women with a strong character (moral or not, but great integrity).

So buddy, it sucks that happened to you. However, there are afew million men passing through the same problem.You gotta move on. You deserve better. Or you could be Mr. Nice guy and keep providing comfort for her, while she kisses your children with the same mouth she sucked a shaft with! LOL

Son,

You made so many mistakes. Firstly, your post shows us that you are an incredibly lonely man who is not working on his life purpose. Not only are you a very lonely man, but also you are very naive when it comes to women. You are probably a very nice guy- the kind that tries to get into a woman's panties by being so nice. Good thing I was passing by, so I will let you have a little piece of experience.

First thing first, you do not text or call a girl more than once. It will show you are very needy. You are very needy indeed because you blew up the poor girl's phone. You are probably one of those guys that are very scared of being rejected by a woman. You are probably scared to talk to a woman too. I will not judge you. However, you can't call or text a girl twice. You can text or call her once. Then, you wait for her to get back to you. It will show that you have a lot going on for you. It will show you are a busy man. Mostly, it will not show you as a needy man. Women are very scared of needy guys. Besides them being frustrated, they can get easily jealous too when no relationship bond has been formed between the girl and the guy. DO NOT be a needy male. DO NOT blow up a girl's phone because it will show you are a jobless bloke who is not working on his purpose.

Secondly, you do not have a life of abundance. You need one. A man with a life of abundance (lots of friends, working on your purpose and meeting other women) CANNOT take time off from working on his life purpose to go meet a girl he doesn't even know in her own house. This shows you are thirsty as hell. A life of abundance takes care of rejection. If you had one, you will not post here. You will move on because there are many other women out there. Also, how the hell are you bothered by a jobless woman who does not make more than you? Unless you see her better than you or that she is actually better than you, we could all see why the pain of rejection is eating you up! Besides, no serious man working to improve his life or working on his life purpose will travel to see a jobless & nonindependent girl he doesn't know well. Again, it points to the girl that you have nothing going on in your life or even worse, you think she is better than you because you left your life for a second to come get some.

Thirdly, you handled this very badly. I don't know why you were not taught how to date a woman. This is how you meet woman: when you meet a woman you don't know, introduce yourself and ask her name. After she has given it, ask her you would like to get a drink with her some time, and exchange numbers. Then, say "I gotta run now. it is nice to meet you." Walk away and do not text or call until 3 to 4 days later. When you call, immediately set up a date. You are not there to chitchat or text about the weather. A woman gives her number for two reasons: to make you walk away and stop bothering her, or she sees the possibility of sleeping with you. So, set up a date (make sure you have a specific place and time), by asking her what her schedule is like. When she tells you, ask her whether she is free on saturday or sunday to get a drink. She may say okay or she may say, "I don't know. I am working or busy that day." Tell her to get back to you when she figured her schedule out and tell her you gotta run because you are doing something (mention the thing). DO NOT CALL her again until she gets back to you which is probably going to do within a week or two if she finds you attractive. If she doesn't get back, she doesn't want you- so move on.
You DO NOT ask her to come to your place without a first date (unless she has a high interest- lesson for another day). You DO NOT drive to meet her at hers. You DO NOT start texting or calling her to talk about why the second Niger bridge has not been built or even why Nigeria has only one seaport in a country of 180 million strong. No one cares about that. You are NOT there to entertain her, Son with Mr. Nice Guy Syndrome. In fact, I know your Mr. Nice guy's mind will tell you that it works, but a woman's mind does not work that way. She knows when you approached her, you wanted to have sex with her. Any other behavior from you that is contrary to that will make you appear as a man who does not know what he is doing. She will flake on you or your dates.

Fourthly, WORK ON YOUR LIFE PURPOSE. This is because when you are so focused on yourself- working on your worthwhile goals and improving on yourself, women are attracted to you. They know you can never give them the time of the day, so they will fight to get that approval from you. If you are jobless due to the state of the Nigerian economy, work on yourself. Lift weights & be shredded. It will increase your confidence. It will make you friends. This is because men will look up to you because they want to look like you, and some women will dream of having you in them because they will assume you probably have other women in your life. Oh yes, boy, i said it! Women want you when you have other women in your life. Anyways, work on yourself with the mindset that a man's life is not about a woman.

In conclusion, I hope I have given you a tiny portion of my experience. Feel free and reach out if you have any questions. Best of luck!

Ah! Nigerians and their senseless savagery.

How is it that whenever you meet an animal you haven't met, seen or heard before, you instantly want to kill it? You kill stray cats, snakes, rodents, birds (including owls that take care of poisonous snakes) and other wild animals. You have caused extinctions of many a species! This post obviously show what an ignorant illiterate the Nigerian that posted this article is. It is something to be an illiterate, but it is another thing to be very ignorant.

You had your phone. From your picture pixel, one could obviously tell it has a web app. All you had to is take a picture and post on google search engine if you were that paranoid or incredibly curious like you are trying to project to us. You did not! Instead, you are telling me that two animal babies of a very rare and nearly-extincted species got drowned by your kids , while you were contemplating whether to kill or not to kill them. Look at the bright side, your kids succeeded where you failed because you were won by their cuteness instead of their rights to exist in the same space as you. Feel for the animal mother. You are a mother, aren't you? Would it have hurt your hands to take them back to their bush and let their mother find them from their cries like all animal mothers do?

You did not think the animal mother must have left its young to go folder for their food just like you go to the market to buy foods for your young. You don't think humans alone have that maternal extinct, do you? I bet you have not experienced a mother bird snatching its young from a human when a human picks one that have fallen from the nest.

Some third world countries are trying hard to save the remaining wild life they have left, but Nigerians kill any suspicion looking animals and in a few case even suspicion-looking humans! This is very sad and pathetic. At the rates at which these non-threatening and threatening wild animals are killed, our great grandchildren will be lucky to see a native wild animal in their life time!

First thing first, Soobaba, you did a good job by shit-testing your woman. Ignore other things every other person says here. Listen! A man needs to check on his woman every now and then- the same way that a woman shit-tests a man to see if he is still the alpha male or a pussified beta male she can whoop around.
Your woman obviously cheats on you! You mistakenly found out recently. It is the tendency of a woman to cheat- married or not. If she is not cheating on you, that is because she has not found anyone better than you yet. It means she sees you as the alpha and you are doing thing rightly (meaning- you don't like her walk all over you and you are very confident about yourself). Your woman failed her test. Not only did she give the time of the day to a stranger, also she gave her address because she wants to get laid by the "Alpha traits" dude that had the guts to call and turned her on.
Honestly, she would have opened her legs to the man if he had not been you. Look at it this way- no loyal and normal woman will give time to a creepy stranger who copied her number behind her back in a public setting- a bank! A loyal and normal woman would have thought, "What else did this creep calling me copied?" and she would have blocked the line. No, your woman wanted to have a pipe lay inside by her. Do you think she is still the innocent darling woman you used to know?
I read from your post that you wanted to beg her back. Wow! This confirmed my initial suspicion that you are probably a beta male. That is why your woman is getting laid by all manners of men behind your back. You see, she likes the alpha like every other woman- so, she is going to lay around every now and then by men who treat her like trash, and she would come home to the noble naive man (beta male- you) that will never leave her. A normal alpha man (a man who sees shit for what it is, and says his mind plus stand 100% with his word) would have seen the woman for the slut she is, and never call her again. You see, this is an opportunity to make her submit to you! She has already proven that she doesn't respect you to take a huge one behind your back, so you called her, tell her a piece of your mind and never reach out until she gets back to you begging. When she does, you will make her submit.
How do you make her submit? First, if you reach out to her now, she will see you as a spineless beta-male who cannot stand up for himself. It will give her the confidence to start shit-testing you often which will make your life very miserable. So, you have to ignore her now and DO NOT reach out. DO NOT EVEN APOLOGIZE! This is because you should be very mad that your woman wanted to cheat on you. When she sees that you are standing up for yourself, she will reach out- they ALWAYS do. This is when you make her submit by asking her if she will make it up to you. By making it to you, I mean there will be a whole week of ball licking and Mouth Gig civil duty for her. DO NOT EVEN TOUCH HER that week. After each job, just stand up erratically and leave saying angrily she is not even good at giving head- that you know a lot of women that could do better. You say she is not that good, and yet she wants to mess around on you. Leave abruptly and DO NOT contact her, until she reaches out. Hang out with other women or else, kongi will make you senselessly crawling back to her. This is why you need to have a life of abundance (working on your purpose in life, having a lot of friends and other women in your life). A life of abundance will help you stay busy and not even think about the woman.
Note: If she refused to do these, be ready to walk away, and DON'T YOU DARE reach out to her. Whenever she reaches out, ask her if she would make this up to you, go straight to the point and do not even waste your time chatting. Meanwhile, post pictures of you in social media having fun with friends- males and females. If she walks away, bro, walk away and let her go. Do not go pursing. YOU DO NOT want a woman that will screw around behind your back. Remember she is a woman, and sometimes a part of her smells like fish once a month lol She is no better than you.
After two weeks or so, she will be broken down and she will submit. She will come crawling back. That is when you make her a booty call since she has proven not to be worthy of your attention. This will only happen if she sees that you have options. If you don't, you are finished. Again, this is where the life of abundance comes in. I see you don't have this or else, a grown man like you would not been writing about crawling back to your woman when you just found out she is willing to get laid by a stranger- not even a friend, a goddamn stranger! That means anybody could lay a big pipe in her. Lucky she has not met the likes of me, or else the likes of me will run a train in her. That is if it hasn't happened yet, you cuckold! Of course, she will not tell you until you find out like you just did about her cheating tendencies
To conclude the time i have wasted on you, son, I am going to say that I know you will go back crawling to that woman like 95% of the beta males out there. And yet you ask us how she could do such a thing? In case you decide to heed my advice, bear in my mind that none of these are evil. Ask your father or elder family members or player friends. Women do exactly the same thing: lies, cheats and manipulative. Actually, women are better and smarter at these things than us - men. That is why a man will feel guilty doing any of these, but a woman won't even give a shit about your feelings when she does them. A woman will flake on you during dates. She will string you along to get your approval and non-sexual attention , but will never tell you she is not interested in you- that is why we have millions of friend-zones in the world . She will intentionally try to make you spend a lot because she sees you a potential money-cow. She will Bleep your friends without considering the consequences on the friendship. She will try manipulate you to gain power in relationships. And others. Besides, a man's life should not be about woman. Work on life purpose and stop pursing women! You will see that women will swarm toward you and when they mess up, your high value will boot them aside to make room for better quality women without feeling guilty.

This article is a pure indication of the ridiculous life and social perspectives that an average Fulani man has with respect to his neighbors and other countries. A Fulani man doesn't need visa to cross borders?! What an absurd thing to say!

I must say this stance is one that is in total disregard of national and international laws- be it immigration or civic. They NEED visas to come into countries which they do not have landed property or ancestral heritage. The Fulani in Ghana like he mentioned are more civilized, and some even have landed property. They don't go around destroying farm lands like the rest of the entitled hoodlums that other Nigerian tribes have as neighbors. Furthermore, the idea of non-indigenous Fulani coming in without visa exposes our great country and its peoples to elements of irreducible rascality; the worst part of it is when these elements turn rogue, the Nigerian departments responsible for culling such crimes will not have any record of the law breakers. Visa keeps records of everyone in the government archive in case of necessary action by the government. If all manners of aggressive non-conforming non-indigenous people are let in without visa because they happen to have people that speak the same language like them, how is the Nigerian government supposed to keep track of them when they resort to crimes?

The issue of Fulani from other countries having a stake in Nigerian is utter nonsense. The Hausa have landed communities in other West African countries, yet they identify with their countries. You don't see a Ghanaian Hausa claiming to come to Nigeria without Visa and occupy Sokoto because he or she shares the same ancestors 400 to 600 years ago with the Hausa communities in Sokoto. No! You see them prospering in Ghana, and they are delightful being Ghanaian because that's their core identity. When they come to Nigeria, they will come in with a Visa and they will comply with the laws of that great country just like a Nigerian will to their laws. It is a mutual observation of accorded respect! The kind of respect that stems from years of the West African peoples toiling, learning and recreating themselves throughout from their colonial history to their post-independence times until they learn to tolerate the presence of one another in another's tribal land/state/country. To disregard this respect is what this non-tolerating Fulani man is preaching in this article, isn't it?

One understands that the Nigerian politicians use thugs to create havoc during election times, but let's not forget this man forgot to mention the numerous threats that the Miyetti or whatever they call their backward uncivilized association of uneducated clowns - have issued in the past few years against peace-loving Nigerians. This is a guy that heaped blames on our greedy-infested maggots called politicians , and he forgot to mention their well articulated threats in the media. Let's call a bull's shit a shit. We all remember last year when the incumbent president tried to force RUGA down the 36 states of the federation's throats; this is because he wanted his Fulani people to have free lands all over the federation without consideration of each state's local farmers and states' autonomy rights. Most of these states denied president and it is so within their state rights- the Miyetti went mad and they threatened to deal with these states. Anyone else remembers Benue state? Does this sound like an insincere guy who wants "peace-loving" well-armed nomads to migrate from all parts of Africa without visa with their cattle into the Nigerian civilized cities and developing countrysides?

He mentioned about colonial masters giving them grazing lands all over Nigeria. Dude doesn't even look as old as the Nigerian identity. No one gave the entitled Fulani a kobo like the rest of the Nigerian peoples. Besides, prior to the Nigerian independence, the Fulani never left North. If one checks the Nigerian census prior to 1960, the Fulani were actually a small population of the core North. Today, it is about 15,000,000 people. My point is that they only started moving all over the country after independence unlike the Hausa that move around the country like the rest of the Nigerian peoples. The Fulani movement was only North-based- they did not even know about the rest of country due to the high illiteracy rates in their ranks. A few of them knew; a very portion of their ruling class that lived in Hausa states (a notable example is Ahmadu Bello). The Fulani started moving all over Nigeria after the civil war. Besides this fact, the so-called colonial masters respected the lands owned by each tribe of Nigeria. That was why the no one's land was given to another group of people. Any division of land happened post-independence and it is probably as a result of the civil war or presence of dictatorial military leaders.
In addition, one doesn't see the reason why the so-called colonial masters were brought up in the man's speech. Nigeria is an independent country with states owned by the independent peoples of the federation. All presence of colonialism with the exception of those that still exist in our psychs and buildings, have been total disregarded since post-civil war. This includes beautiful structures of democracy, great security, good quality education and above all the state/regional rights that the so-called colonial masters brought with them. Yet, this entitled Fulani man wants to take lands that do not belong to him, and not even pay for them.

In conclusion of my response to this gut-wrenching (painful to read) article, one thing left for me to say is: if one can't keep up with the rapid rates of civil development and social civilization of the Nigerian society, then one should get out or adapt. No one is here to feed the entitlement of a robust whimpering group!
