You're not weird. I don't care either as long as she has her life and relationship in order.

This should not come as a surprise, given that tens of thousands of Yoruba people were forcibly taken to Cuba during the 18th and 19th century transatlantic slave trade and they fiercely preserved key aspects of their Yoruba identity and legacy which has become integral to Cuban culture till today.

Too bad he didn't die a slow and agonising death

Update: I now understand what the Palestinians are fighting for. Israel, enabled by the collective West are the real terrorists.

LegendHero:
Just say America will attack.

You that should be thankful for USA for intercepting some of the missile.

If not for USA, Iran for chop israel raw.

Israel is very important for USA in the Middle East. It is in USA interest to always protect Israel.

Oil price about to shoot up.

"Iran for chop Israel raw" without US support? Ok na

That's always my favourite seat where I can see the flaps of the wing protract and retract. Needless to say that once you fly Qatar, you may not want to fly another airline. Enjoy your flight.

So many Mysteries in the Earth we live in.
The Human brain and mind cannot fully Comprehend or understand the acts and wonders of the ALMIGHTY GOD in creating and innovating the Earth.
Its only what GOD allows man to see or know, that we can see or know.

Be it as it may! Whatever you find or you dont find in your Soujourn on this Earth, Ensure you Find JESUS CHRIST.
Ensure you BELIEVE and SURRENDER your life to JESUS CHRIST.

This World is winding up so fast.
The Signs of the times are Wide and Clear Everywhere. In the sun , moon, stars, the Earth, etc.
Get ready Ladies and Gentlemen! The World is at the Verge of Full Explosion of Hell on Earth.

The Rapture is the Restrainer. It is at the Door!
Get ready Folks! Live Ready! JESUS CHRIST IS about show up in the Skies.

The read is about a far away galaxy that's more than 8,000 times bigger than the sun. This doomsday preacher is talking about earth . For context, the sun is 1.3 million times bigger than earth. Now imagine a galaxy that's more than 10 billion the size of earth and there are many more galaxies out there than scientist can count. Earth is so irrelevant and there's no sky daddy up there.

Yoruba Party in the UK What an absolute shame

These snakes do come from the small bush not far from our office to get lizards.

This one swallowed a big lizard and couldn't speed as usual.


This snake is very venomous and its venom kills faster than that of a cobra.

This is either a spotted bush snake or a Western Natal Green Snake and both are not venomous.

This is a Snouted Night Adder. (Look at the black V shape stripe on its head) Although venomous but its venom is not life threatening to humans.

The British stole and proudly displays artefacts that represents and embodies our ancestral belief and sold us Jesus Christ. But you want them to take you serious on the issue of returning the artefacts when we are busy replacing our identity ourselves. We really have a very long way to go.

Fvck Israel!

Fvck Hamas 🔥

I still struggle to understand the rationale behind Nigerians urge to always choose a side in wars and unrest that doesn't remotely concern them. Same with Ukraine and Russia. Is your problem Coronavirus or Hunger?

my dream was that immediately I came over, i and my dependant will search for jobs.. work and pay bill. but that is not feasible as I am seeing it.

i started this process with 15 million naira then when naira nose dive i had to borrowed extra 15 million to top it with interest of almost 2 million naira. landed in uk, started seeing the reality on ground

i have been in UK since 1 month plus. but getting a job as a migrant or new commer without UK experience is not easy.
in fact i have sent over 200 job application for cleaner, care assistant etc but all came with a sorry we have moved on to the next stage or you don't have uk experience.

school fees has to be paid. everyone here in tight corner... school has sent mail threatening to report to the immigration if school fees is not paid in the next few weeks to most Nigerians here.

no job, house rent is expensive.. going for 450 to 600 pounds per month.

travelling through student route is not really easy because you have to balance between work and school.. 'even at that where is the job as a new migrant.

Please if you are considering coming to UK for now.. please put on hold. the crowd from Indians, Pakistani, Malaysia, china etc is overwhelming.

it's not worth selling your home to be here.

i sleep in indeed and all this job site.. still yet nothing, bills mounting up.

all my colleague i came with are still with no jobs in other cities

after spending 13 million coming here with extra 3k dollars now almost exhausted chai


if u know you don't have full school fees, house rent for 12 months, upkeep.... running to 35m to 40m please stay back... stay back or apply through skill route.

edited with more info.

Please don't waste your time on indeed. More often than not, the emails you get from them about a prospective job are normally AI generated. Put your CV on reeds, totaljobs, CV library and set your profile to open. Get in touch with Job agencies; bluearrow etc. If you have a dependant, there may be hope for you if they can work. I believe there's a Nigeria community on twitter, you may want to join the community just in case because I've heard people share job updates there. Hang in there and wish you best of luck

Aremson14:
Hey man what would u advise someone with a fully funded scholarship (comp science) vs a remote job in Nigeria that pays 200k hybrid(based on Lagos) to report once a month… currently based in a cheap state ?

I can't think for you sir. Do what you think is best for you. Which of the two options aligns with your long term goal and aspiration?

I remember warning people a while ago to use logic before deciding to come to the UK, rather than the typical Naija's attitude of "We will cross the bridge when we get to it" No one is saying you shouldn't come to the UK but make sure you've paid your school fees in full before stepping foot on the plane and have some money left to sustain you for at least 9 months.

You CANNOT pay part of your school fees and believe you will be able to hustle for the balance on a 20 hours/ week job, especially if you're a solo student with no dependent but it seems people just want to get the UK visa by all means.

I've seen fully grown men and women beg for food, money and accommodation because they either can't balance their school fees or they arrived and realised there's no health care job waiting for them. UK is a hostile place to be if you're an immigrant and broke.

Rico is not a pet. Rico is a valued member of the police force (SWAT), skilled at sniffing out criminals where human police or robots can't reach.

Chinny024:
I responded since you supported it...either way, they are bad..

No Chinny I don't support it but I don't judge either. My point is that men are not Jesus, neither are women saint Mary. The case of men sleeping with housemaid and women sleeping with gateman is different to a setting where either party deliberately cheat on the other outside of their home. It's best to avoid a situation where your morals will undoubtedly be tested. You don't leave a banana dangling in front of a monkey.

Chinny024:
Lol...love of his life u said?.
Is beyond madness if a man stoops so low to sleep with a house help..

But it's within the frame of sanity for wives to sleep with Adamu that is in charge of manning the gate? Your medal for moral policing is still in its design stage.

A woman that is cooking and taking care of a man's household and maybe beautifully made and good to stare at twice as the icing on the cake? Pressure go dey na. That's one reason why I won't have a housemaid in the first place. I see myself as a decent enough person and morally upright (If I do say so myself) but this scenario may present the chance of losing a speck of that moral. Housemaid may want it and you know deep down that you will like to play dirty as well. It may be messy in the end when sh1t hits the fan but we don't think about that mess at first.

Nigeria but also proud that my freedom and right of abode is not limited to Nigeria alone because what the hell!

Yankiss:
This is why I prefer developing buildings to fast cars. You can't hear that a house crashed. Though there are instances of building collapse, but this is rare and can be avoided with better engineering, crashing a car is quite easy. Imagine the amount involved? 700k pounds. Haba, that's 660m naira. God abeg bless me.

Ok but he has "buildings" and has fast cars

I doubt Mohbad died before he was buried. I think he died in the grave

I agree with almost all of them. In my own case however,

(1) Food - An area 20 minutes drive from me is littered with Nigerian/African restaurant and they serve varieties of good delicacies but the real touch of the Naija flavour is missing, also you can hardly get real goat meat. (Ogufe) and you also can't compare the offals to the ones in Nigeria.

(2) Social life: - You may suffer if you are a JJC but overtime you will find your "people" and learn to work around other commitments.

(3) Women: - Given the fact that I didn't have that much experience with Naija girls in Nigeria, I'm curious to explore when I visit but erm... plenty girls here of various race that will happily date/bed you if you know the game.

(4) Work-life balance: - Don't be quick to conclude on this because of the situation of a 48 year old man. This largely depends on job or industry. Majority of office based jobs now are hybrid; 2 days in the office, 3 days at home kind of settings and weekend is all yours of course. Again it depends on job and industry.

(5) Friendliness: - This is true to some extent but I understand what you mean. I prefer it that way though, acquaintances are acquaintances, work colleagues are work colleagues and of course relationship in this settings can grow into something more personal if you share same values, hobbies, etc.

(6) Church: - Erm...Cancelled. I'll rather be looking after myself after a few drinks the night before, or just relax generally. The guys that introduced christianity to Nigeria don't go to church, why should I?

(7) Friends/Naija vibes: - With this, people tend to send invite for gatherings well in advance but when we turn up, we do exactly that. Impromptu get-together are however occasional.

( Weather: - Erm true, UK weather especially in some unforgiven winter months can make you feel like you're in a giant and invisible industrial freezer but I've also basked in 40 degree celsius in Nigeria, making what would have otherwise been an enjoyable short holiday somewhat unbearable to the extent that I was actually counting down the days to my return. Now I know to choose the month I visit carefully.

(9) Family Support: - Very true this.

(10) Christmas and other festivities - This is also very true. I really nearly cried on my first Christmas here but eventually got used to the ambience and atmosphere of British Christmas which is actually not that bad, especially if you have families here but Naija Christmas still wins hands down.

Condolences to the people of Libya.

From Africa to Europe to Asia to Australia to America, it is unprecendented Floods, Fires, typhoons, Earthquakes, Wars, and Disasters.

I Sincerely Believe GOD is warning an Unsaved and Unrepentant world that HIS final Judgements are at the door step .

We are Currently witnessing events that will continue to be more Frequent and more Intense until GOD pours out HIS Final Judgements on an Unbelieving and Unrepentant world.

Fasten your seat belts.
Bible prophecy is accelerating at a High rate of Speed.

The Coming of JESUS CHRIST is soooooo imminent.
REPENT and BELIVE on JESUS CHRIST so as to be Escape what is Coming on this Sinking Filthy World.

All these unusual occurences are direct consequence of the damages we are collectively inflicting on our mother earth, from big corporations down to the average Tom, Ahmed and Musa, not because Jesus is coming. That guy died, let him rest and you should rest too.

I don't mean to sound like I'm undermining your religion but not everything should be attributed to your looming doomsday. It makes you come across as an absolute muppet.
