If u ask the owner of the restaurant where david is. He won't tell u cos they are not in good terms .. good luck

fyncutz01:
Do you mean to start up any kind of business as a foreigner in Gambia will cost about a million naira?

There are alot of ibo guys on the road selling phone accessories, some yorubas and ghanaians make Akara and road side chops , but the truth is a million naira is less than 100k dalasi.
Shops are expensive in good locations .
It all depends on what type of business you want to do exactly.

Utomid:
Thanks OP for all the info.
I want find out if I can run a pharmacy business over there in Gambia.
What are the regulations and how do I move the medicines from Nigeria to Gambia,is it allowed and will it be possible?

Most drugs I buy here , always have Nigerian NAFDAC on it, once you register your business and meet up with some government regulations, I think you are good to go.

Here in the Gambia.. multiply any price by 9 and you will get the figure in naira..
Bag if rice 25kg is 850 dalasi
Bag of rice 50 kg is 1600 dalasi..
Bag if beans 2100 dalasi
Bag of onions 50kg 900 dalasi.
10 liters of sun flower oil 600 dalasi
Crate of eggs 240 dalasi
6kg gas 500 dalasi
Egusi 1kg 300 dalasi
Tubers of yam 100 dalasi for a kilo
Carton of chicken 900 dalasi.
Carton of titus fish 500 dalasi
Peugeot 206 direct from Germany 100k dalasi
Indomie hungry man size 800 dalasi
Can coke full pack 600 dalasi 33 cl 24 cons
Ok I am out ..
Plate of food in a Nigerian restaurant 100 dalasi full plate with chicken or beef .. with diet coke + 25 dalasi

You will lose your wife soon.
Just a little freedom and she is misplacing her priorities.

Sometimes i winder why it is difficult for some women to play along as a team reaching a goal with their husbands

I will advice you not to worry yourself, the cure for this isn't to run yourself down with hypertension. Stop caring and acting like you cant live without her.

Be specific .. not some women, Nigerian women ..

Nigeria don cast lass lass

Other african countries are not as terrible as you think .. most of them offer you good security , atleast 22 hours of electricity and a good enviroment for business which is not guaranteed in Nigeria.. ordinary Togo is a very great place to be .. I am currently in the Gambia and it is really wonderful here .

Zaksart:
We are looking for first hand information for people on ground. Me and my friend had heard so many beautiful thing's happening over there ... We can't wait to get more enlighten.

I once met a hausa girl , she studied medicine in south Sudan and even married a Sudanese . She never said anything wrong with south Sudan 'she said Sudan is like a low budget Egypt but a really nice place to live .

walkbrazil4k:
Brazilian lady showing us how much she earns in the USA, you just work hard to earn and the good thing about countries like the USA is that the tax you pay would work for you, unlike countries where they embezzle the tax the people pay.

https://www.walkbrazil4k.com/2022/09/brazilian-lady-shows-how-much-she-earns.html?m=1

Not so impressive, my car wash business in Banjul gives me as much as $850 monthly , and I am still able to save atleast $600 monthly . The tax I pay is less than $10 monthly, electricity is stable no jokes.. point is instead of running to the u.s or western europe to suffer when your money never complete, try moving / investing in some smaller african countries with prospects.

I just came across this post on Facebook and decided to share here in other to get more information from our Abroad based nairalanders.



Nigerian Guys in diaspora is this true? And why?


I just need you guys to elaborate more on this if it's true.

Why should Nigeria ladies be avoided abroad??

I am currently living in the Gambia' let me tell you something , Gambian girls are real sweet they ain't leeches , they treat u with respect and adore you as long as you a good man. No billing , they aren't materialistic all they want is real love care n affection. They won't even allow u pay for their taxi trip , here women like to split the Bill's..
In Nigeria most girls feel you gotu spend on them to prove that u really do love them.

Godsprojectayo:
Teaching job of 20k salary 7:30a.m to 4p.m or okada hustle for a bsc holder? which would you recommend?
All contributions will be appreciated please!

20k a month is terrible enough for a graduate.
If you care too much about what people will say, why dont u move to where nobody knows u? then get a bike do your hustle. set a target probably a year and save up for a keke . I know bike riders earn as much as 3k or more daily in the north.. people will laugh at your hustle but won't give u shishi when u are broke ..
Use your head.

Munachimso30:
Can I ask some questions please, I really need help, have been planning to come to Gambia, am actually in Côte d’Ivoire right now, don’t really like here because of the language barrier, want where I can do business
I picked some info on what you just said con the rent please I want to know exactly the kind of business they do there and like how much will it cost someone to manage start up a business
Then which area is good for business
Help please

If u can sell Nigerian food stuffs here , fortune will smile at u,
Nigerian foods are extremely expensive here.
Food stuffs are costly here more than in Nigeria x5
Best market for u is serekunda market which is also the biggest in the Gambia.
To start up a business and register will cost u about a million naira. Shops are quite expensive to rent so u either pay 3 months rent or six months. In the Gambia u dont pay one year like in Nigeria, some landlords accept monthly too.

chukwubyk:
@BULLMAN, what is the average cost of house rent in Gambia? (average safe contain)
I plan relocating to Gambia for hustle.
Thanks

Cost of house rent doesn't have a fixed price over here, some landlords are extremely greedy, some are lenient.
It also depends on the area where you wish to reside.
Most Nigerians stay in serekunda due to proximity to the market.
People that want a soft quiet life like myself prefer to stay in Burisibi senegambia(tourist area)
In serekunda u should get s decent self con for 18000Dalasi a year.180000 in naira
In brussibi its around 300000 to 500000 in naira
Senegambia area is more expensive.

[quote author=Kamkamdd post=114685451]Hello everyone. Please who knows d current cost of Flight ticket from Nigeria to Gambia?
2ndly,how did Gambian immigration treat ppl with one way ticket or must u've a return ticket?
Finally, must u have a hotel reservation to convince immigration even wen u have where to stay?
Thanks. [/quote

Currently flight cost to the Gambia is not stable due to fluctuating dollar rate.
Last I checked it is about 250k naira with air peace one way ticket.
U must not have a hotel reservation to convince any immigration officer, this is west africa.
Immigration officers are corrupt baztards at the airport once they know u dont have a return ticket. They will ask u to pay 20$ or 40$ to stamp your passport or they detain u . U must pay something but u wont be deported good luck.

godofuck231:
a friend of mine who schooled in the US returned to Nigeria. For her horsemanship, as a mortician, she always badged into the morgue and the elderly men did warn repeatedly that she's being wreckless and she said same , due to her American and scientist belief thats they were medically dead and certified , it wasn't possible for corpses to come to life, she one day by 6:45pm she cleaned and prepared to leave for home when she realized she forgot something inside the morgue,
She went back in , and picked up the item only for the morgue door which was damaged and could not be locked in anyway closed itself behind her and refused opening , after some seconds to struggling with the door she panics and starts banging hard calling for help as all other attendants had left, she realised movements in the dark , turned to around to see a huge man with a spear wearing a tiv war wrapper , facing 6 walking corpses, in a way backing her and he told her in tiv language "run"

That was when the oldest man in the morgue opened the door , her grand father asked her about the details when she narrated the story to her family, and he asked her if she saw his feet and both of them responded "6 TOES"

thats was their family guiedian spirit

Best story ever , this is really good i swear .

PresidObi:
Please make it two bottles of Hero beer.

Mortuary standard please..

bro do you know about bitter kola business in Gambia i haerd is high demand there

It is in high demand no lies, gambians are lazy they cultivate nothing ..

idpompe:
How can I get to Gambia from Lagos by road?
Can someone who is conversant with the route share with me and the experiences.

I wont even suggest a road journey from eko to Banjul for my enemy but if you doing it cos you tryna work on your budget it's simple, just see every country as a bus stop.. before it used to be Lagos to Ghana then Accra to Burkina Faso to Mali which was quite faster. But there are serious rebels now in mali. On a safe side u need to go throw the longer route countries on the coast. ABC transport will take u to yamasukro or Abidjan directly for an equivalent of almost 35 k it's a day journey. Abidjan to free town u just need to keep asking at the garage for direction . When u get to free town get a bus heading straight to Conakry or daka directly. There is no straight bus to the Gambia when u get to Dakar u cross to the Gambia from daka senegal via one ferry..
The whole trip could take more than5 days u may end up spending more on the road than via flight . I didnt put the cost cos I dont know how much things have changed for tp aren't fixed I know that of ABC cos my cousin visited Abidjan recently said he paid 35 k to get ther by road .. good luck. Always ask for directions when u get to a new country everyone will be willing to help trust me

Bowagatetravels:
you cant get airpeace ticket to banjul for 235,000...

One way bro that's what I paid some weeks ago .. except things have changed overnight drastically

Itodojohn1119:
Kindly advise me on how I can travel from Nigeria to Gambia with my Nigeria passport through air without spending much can I buy one way ticket? As first time traver?, please more details how to go about it

Just buy air peace ticket it will cost u about 225000 naira if u book it your self and almost 235000 if you book from an agent .. using one way ticket you will definitely pay those immigration officers at yandum airport about 60 $ or 40$ depending on their mood before they stamp your passport . Truth is you are not supposed to visit a country with a one way ticket when u don't have a residential permit or card .. good luck

Officiallyme:
Hello guys, met this girl some time around January this year and asked her out and we started dating ever since

So recently, I got to know about her past. Her past was so reckless that it is giving me a second thought about everything, started having s*x at the age of 15 while in secondary school and travelling to see a lot of men whom she claimed was asking after her hand in marriage. This girl has slept with so many guys that it's freaking me out, funny thing is, she's been lying and hiding some things but as a smart guy, I've always had my way around her to tell me the truth.

She told me she did a "mistake" abortion for one of her boyfriends then and just last year December, she had s*x with a married man and she knew very well he was married. These are just few of the stuffs I recently found out about, I know it's all in the past and she claims she's changed and want a real relationship with me but I don't believe at all, she claims to love me so much and cannot do without me and honestly, I love her too but I'm scared this may just change a lot about everything.

I don't know what to do, I'm hurt and disappointed and I don't know what to do now. I just need someone to talk to me, please don't insult me, I just need some pieces of advise.

Thanks

Don't ask questions when u don't want to know the answers
