Even though, exotic foods are delicious and enjoyable; once in a while, some of these foods can make you feel rootless and homesick.

We know it is not easy to bring Nigerian foodstuff abroad. If you try it, you will be shocked at how people will snigger at your bags packed with Nigerian foodstuffs at the airport, especially when you have Iru (locust beans) in the bag.

There are certain foods Nigerians miss most when living abroad. Although, these foods are not necessarily our favourites, but they remind us of our fatherland and it is no wonder we get sad when alternative foods do not meet up with the original ones in taste and appearance.

Here are 22 foods Nigerians miss most while living abroad:
Seriously OP. What do you mean by miss? i have just finished a plate of pounded yam and bitter leaf soup. How can one miss what one always has? You talk as if one does not have access to these foods abroad.

The nigerian education system needs to be overhauled. What does "beware of some internet fraud" mean? So, the OP is pretty much saying that there are some that are good abi? correct me if i'm wrong; aren't all internet fraud bad? God help Nigeria.

Oh I see. But the oath of allegiance doesn't invalidate a naturalized citizen nationality of their home country. If such laws are in place then it means it's not being enforced or the State doesn't regard it as there are millions of U.S. citizens with dual nationality.
The point is, it must never come to light that you have it. America does not go after some law breakers; they come to them. lets say you have a series of parking violations, the cops won't go after you but one day, you will definitely get pulled over for some minor infraction, then all your records will be put out for all to see. Same thing with this. It takes one complaint for you to get in trouble. I consider myself to have dual citizenship but i would be crazy to let them know that. The government would tax the hell outta me and probably revoke citizenship status. it's been done before.

U.S. doesn't recognise dual nationality?
Technically no. Because the day you get your citizenship you swear to denounce whatever nationality you once had.
Education › Re: Pictures of University Of Ghana Beautiful Hostels by Bollinger(m): 11:05am On Aug 13, 2015
Fellow NL's. I would like you to know that the pictures are not photo shopped oooo. I can attest to it. That is just how Ghanaians are. They are normal people. I remember the first time i went to Ghana and saw a gas station with the sign "open 24 hours", i thought it was a joke. That night, after clubbing we passed the said gas station and the damn thing was still open and the time was 3am. I was amazed. Who born gas station in Nigeria to open pass 8pm.

The guy better tread carefully. The american govt does not play with it's citizens, especially children. They don't even recognize dual citizenship so if the kids were to complain, the question would be asked that why are they in Nigeria in the first place.

Every one knows the south east is fond of special centers and exam malpractices. Stop sounding like the IGBOS are super brilliant. Yorubas are the best in Nigerian academics. The Igbos are only good at selling fake drugs and piracy of other peoples hardwork. This trash u posted up here will never change the fact that the igbos are semi illiterates angry
Seriously? All those that liked this post are the dullest Nigerians ever. For God's sake, what does "Nigerian Academics" mean? It is like saying that our educational system is somehow different from the standards of the rest of the world. The statement makes no rational sense. And 93 dullards did not catch on to this. God help Nigeria.

They could have returned it to a nearby wildlife sanctuary but then again , a hungry crowd is an angry crowd angry angry
Seriously? where is the " nearby wild life sanctuary" located? Nigeria can't even provide sanctuary for it's people and you are talking about sanctuary for animals. Well, good luck with that.

Be careful with buys for GA. It's dangerously getting close exhaustion. if 21227 is broken then all uptrend is done. 21227 is the confirmation price.

If 9553 is broken for the AUDCAD pair, open two lots and take first tp at 9408 and the second tp at 9230. SL is at 9620.

The way you curb these sexual offences is the same way you curb any offence. You enforce the laws already in place. We all know that's never going to happen. Nigeria can't even enforce tax laws not to talk of laws relating to sexual offences.

Cul4real:
Please house, which one is even most easier or less complicated between binary option trading and forex trading especially for newbies? Thanks.
Good question. One constant recurring criteria in binary trading is that you make money only if price meets a certain point in X amount of time. Also, the way the brokers volume/lots for trades are structured, it is impossible to utilize compounding. In forex, you choose your volume/lots per trade which is perfect for compounding. That alone should tell you that forex is way better than binary options. You see, making money in the markets is about your knowledge in the application of probability, math, and odds. If i give you a strategy that has a 5 percent win ratio and part of the rules is that you must religiously place your stop loss at 10 pips but your wins would generate 250 pips, you are well on your way to being a millionaire. But here's the thing; you will still manage to screw it up. Why? with the scenario i just gave, what will be your downfall is time and frustration. A 5 percent win ratio means you would have to take 95 trades and each time would be a loss and you would only win five times. you would never know when those five win trades would come up. It could be days, or weeks. Eventually you would change parameters because of frustration. This simple concept is what most traders don't seem to understand or want to understand. As traders we have an EGO problem. Almost everyone (including me) has a nostradamus complex. We all want to be the first person to crack forex. Which is why people flock to Binary option. Binary option is basically telling the trader to predict where price is going and that my friend is impossible. The overall movement of price is not news based, it's trader/people driven. Can you honestly tell me you know what your fellow man is thinking? if you can know that, then yes you can determine the direction of price. But that will never happen. Anyone who tells you they know what price would do the next minute has ulterior motives. Which is also why binary option should be avoided.

True. But, your way of trading is different from mine. I don't swing trade nor scalp. The spikes never took me out. So, until it does, i'm still in it.

Damn. That spike almost took me out of the gbpusd and audusd trade. Fracking News. If 15688 is broken on Gu then i'm out.
