Marriage my ass! Na by force to marry?

Yea right! That is what Obasanjo claims, can he prove all this lies?

Gerrard59:
Congratulations to OP. I am really for you as I know it must have been a huge struggle to pull through.

As for the back-biting, I am not surprised as I have stated here that the older generation in the UK seems to be annoyed or envious (how easy the immigrant routes are these days) of recent migrants. Also, they have this classist mentality that "I have been here before you. So know your place". This is largely mired in poverty as it applies to other migrants from the developing world. Although, a way to counter such is to tighten the immigration system so that only the best and brightest have access to the country. Such as legal immigration to the US and Singapore. Indians in the US are highly respected than their counterparts in Canada.

As for people making it in Nigeria, that is very true. There are people who have very high-paying jobs in Nigeria and live very well (legal money). However, their conditions cannot be used to describe the entire Nigeria. I recall my ex-boss lamenting about Nigeria's politicians, people he praised regularly when he used the roads to his state or somewhere in Kogi. He was shocked at how dangerous the roads were. This is someone who rarely leaves Lagos without flying. This is the same mistake this new set of elites make every day - siddon for Lagos and Abuja then christen everyone in Nigeria as "doing well". To be fair though, I don't expect any less from APC supporters. The reason I don't debate the state of Nigeria with them. Although, I still believe Nigeria holds more entrepreneurial economic opportunities than most countries in Africa aside from South Africa. However, it is important to state that Nigeria goes beyond Lagos and Abuja at least for economic reasons.

The last two years must have been tough for Nigerian students in the UK (especially older ones who are married and with children). As I have stated countless times, should the economy get to pre-2015 levels, MANY Nigerians would gladly return. Many would still return anyway but at a later date. Reading their stories further makes me to be grateful towards the Japanese. I was so pampered and afforded ample financial and economic opportunities here. To be fair though, I had the requisite experience from Nigeria, attended a top university here, worked on the language and I am unmarried with children. Nevertheless, the Japanese have been so good to me, and I deeply appreciate it.

very nicely put. I take it you live in Japan?

CaptainFM1:
Nigeria would be better if people running away could do even just half of what you posted Sir.

Our government get their fault, so also are our people.

I taya oo!




The people are worst than the government. They are willing to live an upright life in the UK but cannot do the same in Naigeeria. The Naigeerian citizens are more corrupt than their politicians.

All i read here is car, car car, drive, drive, drive, license, manual, automatic and more car car car. Even the information on driving is wrong. 5m to learn driving? 5m what? £5m? Or what?

There are millions of brits who do not drive or own a car yet they manage to have a job, go to work and earn good money.

And there is nothing wrong with an automatic car or license, most cars in UK or around the developed world nowadays are automatic anyway, soon manual cars will faze out.

You didn't tell us how owning a car cost so much money. Road tax, insurance, parking fee, MOT, petrol, servicing and repairs. Owning and running a car in the UK could cost atleast £200 month and to afford it you d have to work more hours, working more hours you don't need to just to pay for running a car apart from the normal hours or need more higher paid job to afford to run a car.

Where are you going to that takes 2:30hours to get to? that is nearly more than half of the time it would take for an airplane from Heathrow to land in Abuja, and it would take 13 minutes in your private car? Come on man! with all these Bloody! traffic, traffic lights, zebra crossings, roadworks and speed limits? why would you want to get their in 13 minutes anyway? Where are you rushing to? Work? Wake up earlier! get the bus or train, trains would get there quicker than your privat car.

The public transportation system is very good, you may not need a car to get to work..and even if you are driving as a job, imagine sitting driving 8 hours a day 5 days a week, you d become overweight, no interactions no nothing! Just you on your own sitting there driving, not to mention the backaches, knee pains and piles in your bum.

The Naigerian/african communities are lonely because they like to work, work, work, work, work and work. some leave their kids to care for themselves, join gangs, recruited by drug dealer and ends up in jail or stabbed to death because their parents are always working. Some say they are working, working sending money home so they can live like kings in Naigeeria in the end. And i ask, when? When will you live like a king in Naigeeria if you are in the UK for almost more than half of your life WORKING!


The white brits some black brits relaxes more, goes clubbing more spends more, socialise more and works less hours and earns average wages. Because you desparate newcomers and long term africans wants to do all the work, hours,morning and shifts available at work places and pays huge taxes to subsidize the wages of the white and black brits on benefits.

One Naigeerian guy did around 120 hours including overtimes each week on his first month, he was really excited hopping he will get a huge bumper pay when he gets his month wages. well... He was disappointed when he realised how much tax, NI and pension contrubution was deducted from his bumper pay. He thought he will take all the money he worked for home. Apparently he wasn't aware he must pay tax and NI or didn't think it would be that much. the look on his face indicated to me that he wasn't too jolly and glad to give up nearly 600 quid of his hard earned sterlings to his majesty.

I read that holders of student visas pays huge amount in school fees also every term hence having not much or no savings left for rent, bills and other commodities to pay for imagine having to pay for owning and running a car ontop. Some pays as much as £6000 per term i heard.

Electricity never runs out because you pay, if you don't pay it would be cut off or you end up with a county court judgement for unpaid bills, next thing baifliffs would start chasing after you. if you get a credit card as you suggested, if you are not careful you d end up in more debts to your bank.

The best advice is when you go to the UK you find out yourself how life is in the UK and decide. All these people on social media telling different stories are just telling it from their OWN experiences, when you go there your experience might be different. That's all.

If they are really hungry they should go to their politicians houses to demand for food, they were the fools who voted in corrupt and thieving politicians, they were the onese who were praising corrupt politicians.


They are not hungry yet. When they are really hungry we will know. If you still has the voice and mouth to say you are hungry then you are not really hungry.

Una still dey play

Whois:
God help us

Nonsense! Ebola was an illness, Tifnubu is self inflicted. You voted in a clueless president.

Now you are hopping God epp you, how are about Tifnubu epp you?

Marc3500:

Nonsense! Where is hell fire? In which country? can you proof there is a hell fire? Where you dey go? Heaven? Where is heaven? In which country?


You cannot even answer not one of my questions.


You are a gullible fool.

kingxsamz:
Abi o. Someone has the power to catch people who commit crime without any information but decides to only use it to recover his stolen television. We love believing n0nsense in this country.

correct.

kingxsamz:
This is another common, baseless point you people raise to defend something that is obviously useIess.
So politicians have access to higher ranks of power, based on what? Where is the power coming from and how does it determine who deserves access to "higher ranks"?

Don't mind the dumbo! Politicians has no bloody power the only power they have is the power to lie to some of their gullible foolish citizens.


Politics is something one can learn in school, no voodoo or diabolical powers required. I have a degree in politics, i don't have any powers or voodoo.

Ringstonermask:
wat u don't know is bigger than u.

More rubbish. You can do all these magic yet stagnant where you are.

I dare that your magic to find me, tell me my location right now. Tell me what colour shirt i am wearing?


Nonesense!

kingxsamz:
Lol, rubbish. How about we use this to capture kidnapers and thieves making this country unsafe for us? Or let's use it to recover our stolen artifacts resting in the museum of another country. You people are not serious.

Don't mind the ignoramus! why do we need police if all that magic can be done?

Anyone who believes this crap must be a morron.

This shit can be done yet they are employong police, army, detective, CIA, in his community.

Ignorant africans.

Ringstonermask:
Simple something, just two native eggs, oil, sea salt and tear drop from ur own eye. Know d right word to say, tear will only touch one of the egg. D other must be broken after d incantation. Must not take ur bath until d product is returned.

Just run the package well and nature will send anything to retrieve it. It not guaranteed 100%, so u must be really stolen from and pained for it to work.

Also, it doesn't need ur faith. That's d difference between spiritism and religion.

I actually learnt many of these things while growing up, nawa o. Even one with pig head.

How time flies!

Total Rubbish! If all these magic can be done, why are we employing police?

Obrigardo:
Even maga know putin is lying. And only ignorant folks think putin doesn't want his USSR back.

Killer putin will install his lacky like poroshenko in Ukraine and then focus on Poland or Moldova, if unfortunately the rapist trump is president.

But I believe putin will go the way of Gaddafi in the coming years, because the President Harris admin will cripple his power going forward. Rapist trump will only make Killer putin more powerful.

Can you name one harm Putin has ever done to you personally or harm Putin did to any of your family members.


Just one.

Electorate:
An immature mind believes everything said about someone you don't have any direct relationship with.

Don't the ignoramus! The ignoramus that has never met Putin or even has a chance in a million years to ever meet Putin.

Trump is the messiah! Trump 2024!

EmperorCaesar:

Mongolia had Genghis Khan

Greece had Alexander the Great

Babylon had Nebuchadnezzar and sons

Persia had Cyrus

Media had Darius

Egypt had different Pharoses

Rome had The Caesars


USA in 2024 having a female President looks like a misfit...Just shit

Trump all the way

Trump is the man!

Trump is God! Trump 2024!

Golan007:
Foolish old man.

Just like Tifnubu!

Trump is God! Trump 2024!

Simon Ekpa is God! All the foolish morrons who are against Ekpa should go hang

erico2k2:
YOu know Area boys go think say December don Set ahaha

I tell you! The kinda trouble this will cause eh! Only fork knows

Marc3500:
Wtf u get mind oo 😳

U no know say u dey ruin ur chance to go heaven it's written in revelations that Thou shall not write or add anything to the bible
It also said thou shall not tear away any part of the scriptures guy u don comot ur eternal life oo

Yea right! who wrote those words in the bible? What kinda ink was used to write the in the bible? How was the bible manufatured? And by which company?


I have been using the pieces of paper torn from the bible to wrap weed for many years, so far i am still here. I have even torn the whole bible booklet there are none left.

erico2k2:
95% of the land in Nigeria are free hold, so I don't know where they think they are getting money from.

Don't mind them, come tax me on my land wey dey village mek i see. Na to jus cut pesin head wit cutlass comot be dat.

tojahh:
I didn't receive any such letter o. I have my land here in my village and no one has come to issue me any notice to pay.

Correct, no one will trouble you, theu said, federal government lands. If anyone come near your land in the village cut their head off with a machete.

They are talking about the lands with C of O. Your land in your village was passed on to your by your ancestors i guess, so don't worry.

There are no such thing as bible Oaths, it doesn't exist. it is just an imaginations in your head. Bible is just a book with prints in it. Just like porn magazines, news paper, toilet paper or leaflets.


I use piece of paper torn from the bible to wrap weed always, i also tear part of the bible and use it to wipe my car windscreen sometimes.


You are a morron! for even coming on here to spew this kinda crap.

Tinubu2027Agend:
Japan that is heavily surrounded by ocean and has millions of high rise buildings is still standing tall and no fear of being submerged.

So perish the thought.

I still stand on Tinubu's mandate till 2031.

Okay, if you say so. Japan is not Lagos, is it?



I also stand on Tifnubu mandate till 2041. More suffering for the hopeless masses who voted a drog lord into power.

Izuchukwu70:
Shut up. Na lie because you no get property for Lagos you dey yarn rubbish.

Ofcourse, i no get property for Lagos. You are right. Because i already know that my property will be under water in the next 20 years. you are not intelligent atall! If you get property for Lagos.. welll... You are doomed!!

TheTundeMuniru:
You can never make it in life, your evil mindset is your grave enemy. The hatred in you will definitely cosume you and your generation.

Yea, tell that to your forking father!
