A whole Cardi B was spraying NGN200 notes on strippers yesterday at Silverfox, Lagos and some of you here will want to over do with the small money you don't even have.

And also drank stout

bilulu:
Na so them dey deceive people for Nigeria.... He should tell us how much mortgage he went into to get the house. There re a lot of Nigerians here in Canada who own houses but we know e Dey play. It’s possible he might not even be practicing yet if their system there works like here. Don’t be deceived

Canada na English colony

Most Uk trained Doctors can't even buy a house in 3yrs let alone a Nigerian trained Doctor.

He is a coded Yahoo boy

Mumu spotted. Did you miss the part where he stated that he saved £500-£1000 every month? Now let's say he saved £500 every month for 3 years that is 18k. From what I see that house is not in London. So let's say the house cost 180k and paid 10% deposit and they multiply his annual income by 3 (as a doctor he is guaranteed 60k per annum) to be the equivalent of the mortgage. Tell me its not possible? A doctor in England can never be a yahoo boy

Temptee101:


Of course, you don't expect her to be shown the way out like that without essentially taking the ogas at the top through some special Marshall skills she got on bedmatics by the able and worthy supervision and mentorship of that Calabar boy

Spits

Those oga at the top no fit try them go loss the job

This one no be small police officer o o. She is actually an officer not a constable

allthingsgood:
Lol I get ur point.
But stop pretending u are not a Nigeria. That juju there is not a religion

It actually is a religion

Last of his kind.... Very great man... Imagine the government colleges he built... LASU used to be government college ojo not a university. My great GCL, GOCOVI, GCI all of these colleges are now rubbish. The road he built are nothing to write home about now. All these thieves have really messed up lagos. Otedola also did a good job as governor of lagos, Marwa also tried, Jakande Mr substandard. Of all the governors that ever governed Lagos this man still leads by miles shame on every governor from 1999.

Lovelyn451:
truly, something went wrong and it's still not right, this is beyond the physical, people like this makes me very prayerful

I think its the Nigeria she came back to. Its nothing spiritual.

Good thoughts . 39 adults were going for greener pastures in the UK . So maybe somthing went wrong inbetween . I am
Into haulaging of trucks which I manage lots where I am . With that truck I saw on BBC website there is no way the driver would hear screaming or banging . That’s a sealed refrigerated truck. When you see the interior of such trucks you would understand better .

And the trucks are sealed and drivers don't break the seal until it gets to final destination. All they do is just drive from point A to B. He normal to charge him so he can convince the court that he only took over driving the truck from one point to another and he is not obliged to check content.

A driver delivered parts to Perkins on getting there when the logistic officer broke the seal a lot of migrants from Afghanistan rushed out of the truck and was running around like headless chickens. Drivers are only guilty if the seal us broken

Nigerians & Dramas are like 5 & 6.

I usually attend their Owambe Parties on Saturdays & Sundays so I can be able to Eat Nigerian Food.

But I always stay clear of joining their Associations like Members Abroad Association & Brothers United Association because it always breeds envy, power tussle & in house fighting.

I also attend Redeemed Christian Church of God but tend to leave the church immediately after service.

Keep it like that bro. Once you join their associations you won't integrate into the system and eat out of the big apple

abbey621:
Oh no, the places you are mentioning are luxury living. They're almost comparable to some places in LA and Beverly Hills but Alpharetta/Roswell? Those houses were going for 150 to 250k after the 2008 financial crisis, it's a shame man never hammer back then....lol.

So Na slum you still de?

abbey621:
Empty drum....With all your greatness dem no know your papa for UK Omo Ale Jati Jati

Atleast I don't have to be stuck in traffic for hours or catch the trains anymore or live in one town Monday to Friday and another over the weekend. Please what's the difference between that and living in Nigeria? Look some people don leave that life behind. Abeg who knows Adeleke in Atlanta with all his billions?

You are the bastard that can not see any good you can bring to your fatherland.

abbey621:
LMAO...It's past your bedtime, go to bed & stop this foolery

Past your papa bed time. You that live in Mushin kind area outside Nigeria. Next time don't quote people that are greater than you

abbey621:
Hahaha....Now if we showed your comment to your 16 year old, would he or she be proud of you? Grow up man, stop making a mockery of yourself

Lol mockery of myself? You are actually right she will be wondering why I'm wasting time on a commoner like you. Some people are done with living abroad, pray you reach that class where you can stroll in and out of any country. Hey try and explore the world more and be exposed.

abbey621:
If you sat in traffic for 2 hours in Atlanta, you go know say e good make person use money buy convenience

You don't even come across exposed. I guess you are the type I don't associate with. Atlanta is a shit hole.

ajl:
I left Nigeria as a student in a foreign land nearly 2 decades ago. There is a point in your life you get to that foreign passport will not matter to you. Maybe for ease of traveling from point A to point B without wasting time and money for Visa application. So that's actually reason I eventually got one because I always need to go for conferences here/there. Even if you leave Nigeria, don't fool yourself, their societies are not designed for you to thrive to the level of the natives. But if you just want to live your life as a normal 9-5 guy with no big dreams beyond your own selfish ambition (house, car, personal comfort, etc,) then you will be fine. You just have to learn and get use to "kissing" asses.

Don't waste your time on uneducated literate people. This year alone I have been back home 5 times and Na people be the problem of Nigeria.

johnmartus:
I'm a business man and I visit uk almost every 2months.

On visiting Visa or residence permit?

johnmartus:
Guy stop deceiving people.this is not uk i knew.

That's because you did not go beyond South East. A lot of Nigerians live in London but do not go beyond London. UK is far more developed.

abbey621:
I live in Norcross but during weekdays I'm at my second home in Dunwoody.

So you are not even settled? Lol. Going from one place to another sofa surfer.

abbey621:
Low lives....LMAO. Spoken like a true Nigerian, visiting the States?....So you've not actually lived in the states, worked in the States and fully utilize the system in the States? Kid when next you visit, come to Atlanta, I would love to show you more about the States

You never know the people behind the keyboard on nairaland. My 8 years old 6 child is more intelligent than you are. Yes my 6th ,I have a 16 years old child all born in England. Where were you 16 years ago? I left Nigeria for good in 1997. Atlanta is a shithole I'm sure you live around Nigerians there. Quote your level or your generation.

abbey621:
Yea right....lol. Have you lived in the USA?

I have been visiting the states since I was 6 years old. All this low lives on this thread. Seun do something about these rats

nairalandposter:
Your rejoinder makes no sense.

Another thief supporting his fellow thief.

Next time quote someone that is on your social class not me. I am you dream come through okay. 21 countries visited where have you been to quote me? And yea we know what bombing is its sending scam emails.

Alvin212:
Bleep off

You are a thief

To get both passports she mist have stayed minimum 12 years in both countries combined and how are we sure she is telling the truth? Lol

Don't come to conclusion because of the illegal immigrants you know in the UK.

UK is far better than Canada and USA I can tell you that for free. From health care, transport system ,support for families, student loans buying a house and you can become very settled in one month of getting to the UK. What else do you want ? Oh to be spoon fed ? Well no other country will do that for you but UK will literally help you put the spoon in your mouth.

johnmartus:
I wonder what is going to do in UK. If you use your money purchase UK visa you're on your own .Because uk is more less of Nigeria.

Mumu spotted

HollySCH:
I know how it feels to move from your beloved country, for whatever the reason, and settle in another country.
I myself have moved to another country, and have spent so long here, I have got citizenship.
Awesome I thought.

But then you start thinking about friends and family you have left behind. You become disconnected, not really knowing your true citizenship.
It is a strange feeling.

Did you not have a Nigerian passport before getting citizenship?

I have lived abroad 2 decades now and have teenage kids but I still use my Nigerian passport even though I have been eligible for citizenship 15 years ago.

36STATES:
Your number two is so on point.
When you begin to analyse the way average Nigerian reasons, you might be forgiven for thinking you are in a mad house.

To overcome this, don't go and live in the city when you are in Nigeria. Make sure you find yourself a place in your village, a bit away from most people.
This was exactly what I did, and I enjoy Nigeria now. I moved about 400 metres away from everyone and built myself a house with a very tall fence around it. Many people only know I am around when they see my car pass.

If you have been overseas for over 19 years like me including the academic accomplishment, it is very difficult for you to find people that think like you who live in Nigeria.

Very valid point.

Nigeria itself is not the problem of a returnee, its Nigerians themselves because someone that have lived abroad for long can live a very simple life but as soon as a Nigerian trader, Uber/taxify driver find out you live abroad they try to extort you.

The mentality of an average Nigerian too is not what a returnee is used to. so how do you start a business without involving a Nigerian resident?

It is Nigeria residents that breaks ordinary civil laws like littering and making the place dirty.

Its Nigeria residents that will cross the roads even though there is pedestrian bridges.

It's Nigeria residents that won't use the walk way but walk in the middle of the road.

Its Nigeria residents that expect you to budget for them when coming back with all the wetin you bring come instead of them being a host you becoming the host.

It's Nigeria residents that vote in old clueless men that grew up in villages without civilised education or exposure.

A Nigerian abroad can start a business in Nigeria with only 2 million Naira but Nigeria residents will make it impossible to achieve with all the extortions.


I have visited Nigeria 4 times this year and this is my personal experience.

Oga saint, alcohol is not sin but too much of it can lead to sin. Not all of us check bible verses but I know the part where Jesus said if your right arm cause you to sin cut it off does that mean to cut it of because it can cause you to sin?

Noah and his family were spared because he believed in God but the same Noah got drunk and was dancing naked when his son saw him.

In the 80s Pastor Kumuyi asked deeper lifers not to own TVs because it can lead to immorality and sin does not mean owning a TV is sin.

You are all children of INDOMIE GENERATION

And didn't see lekki as swamp

shadeyinka:
Interestingly, it is the so called non-indomie generation who you said "developed themselves" that call you Indomie generation.

They are the generation whose hopes were dashed. They saw the goodness but didn't taste of it. They see the up coming ones as blind; who never saw a reference other than this messed up Nigeria. That's the truth.

Who be this guy? You make a lot of brain.
