opad:
Haha funny, I'm from the lineage of warriors (omo Akin) not heir. You speak the language fluent?

for where? I can't speak the language o. Why is it that most, if not all of you will always code switch? A typical ondo indigene won't be hard to get noticed anyway.

opad:
Osan o. Egin

lol my future Osemawe... well, I'm from Edo state but base in Ondo state.

OjaP:


Yes, I am from Ondo Kingdom. The only town in the Southwest where we speak our dialect freely and with pride

baba ondo... Keeti i?

Idazbawz:

e ka bo sir

I be deeeeeeeep christian but I dey chop any food wey pass my way. So far na say food. At least, ebi o gbodo pami ku now.

MsNas:
Damn. Nigerian Christians can be despicable and judgy Tho!! what gives y'all the right to say we are worshipping idols? Cos you believe you're going straight to heaven after you die? I seriously SMH for some humans. To all there own. I eat Christmas meat with my Christian friend. If my parents give you slag meat and you dont want it, throw it in the trash.

The MOD who brought this to front page is a fool too. I guess it's anything to bash Islam!

Naija xtians claim to be holier than thou. I'm a xtian (not the chair warmer type) but I doubt if you ate sallah meat as I did last night. Most probably, I'll be coming back to it after church service today. No shaking!
Msnas, it's been some time. How's studies?

lymelyte:
y are you contradicting yourself.. If education is not important , then why did he go back to school?

don't get me wrong. I never said education is not important. The world is an investment paradise. Regardless of who you are, you can succeed in Nigeria.
To make my point clear, Your destiny is not tied to school

abeycityx:
@charzyh2 I went there on Monday and Tuesday they told me to check back ... I don't know what is wrong ..

there's no probs sir. I guess it's general. You can contact them.

chycco: 'look before u leap' and who told you that Dr, orji uzor kalu is uneducated?
Well it might interest you to know that Dr. Orji Uzor Kalu holds a Bachelor of Science (Honours) degree in Political Science from the Catholic University, Washington, USA and MBA certificate from the Harvard University Graduate School of Business Administration, Boston Massachusetts, USA. Dr. Kalu is a member of the Institute of Directors and other numerous professional bodies.
Next time do your research proper before update @op

Uzor Kalu was uneducated until he became a multi billionaire. He pursued education when he wanted to join politics. So, you're the one to go for extensive research

Unclerukus: All those who have failed jamb repeatedly or those who didn't have the opportunity to experience the uniqueness of the four walls of a university and campus always bank on this point to ease their frustrations. They won't want to say it but most of the degree critics would definitely FLY at the chance to have a university degree if time could be reversed. Ignorant bunch in here,Nigeria is very harsh to entrepreneurs with little or no capital venture,you think you are abroad, clap for yourselves,don't worry send your children to learn trades and give them 20 thousand naira to maintain the business,poverty will be your companion,go and check the background of all those Nigeria's great and powerful. Bunch of frustrated losers.

can you see what we're saying? When you've never lost, how are you expected to maintain success? The people listed by the op are never afraid of failure.
Michael Jordan said and I quote: "I failed several times, that is why I succeed".
Are you ready to leave the 9-5 rat race?

Amefrica: I taya oo bro! Thank you jaree. To be honest, if I were to list my TOP 10 on this thread, Slim del would be the #1, I loved her too much. There's nothing we basically didn't share/discuss together.

It's alright sha, I still love her

bro, that's the spirit

newbie2014: My Conclusion: Amefrica na th.ief and we all neeed to be careful. some pple are not who they say on this thread. some are fakes!
Pple like amefrica have like multiple usernames on various thread.

please, shut it. Amefrica has been on US thread for more than a year and to be frank, he has been more than just amazing. @slimdel, i'm not saying you lied but you guys ought to have figured it out in the private.
@Amefrica, please do not be harsh. Just flash back to when she squeezed out the money for you.
*hugs*

asalimpo: this is a sick philosophy .
If those engineers @ microsoft dont know what theyre stuff,theyd b no product for microsoft to sell and get rich on.

what's sick? That a drop out directs first class graduates? Mark Zuckerberg became the youngest billionaire at 23 while as a doctor earn roughly 400,000naira monthly with hard labour. As a civil servant, how much does the govt pay you?
All what the op and I mean is that your destiny is not tied to school.

rattlesnake: But somebody else who went to university on their behalf was behind their success......

Don jazzy cant make music without some software developer
Coscharis cant sell cars without the engineers who made the cars
Famfa oil cant do business without the oil engineers
Mercy Johnson cant have Big braests without Dr 90210

etc etc etc

I will rather go to school

true intelligence is when you use other people's intelligent to achieve your goals. Bill Gates said his classmates in Havard are now engineers in Microsoft while he's the owner of microsoft.
Give me a name of a doctor in Nigeria that became a billionaire through his profession and I will give you hundred names of entrepreneurs that are multi billionaires through their enterprise. If you know your onions, you will be successful instead of settling down with a job (Just Over Broke).

abeycityx: Can someone please reply to this post pls
Hello people ...my visa was approved since 25th September but i have not given my passport and visa ..when tracked online , it was on administrative processing ..pls can someone help me with what

hello sir, your visa is ready. My friend had the same issue. Go and collect it with the white paper that was given to you.

teddyrain: sure! Which FAM is that bro?

I'm a close family friend to them. He won't regret his stay.

meekpie: Visa approved this morning @ Lagos. Bless God.

congrats bro I'm so glad for youu

teddyrain: Who is in Chicago ? My friend is arriving December but his school is opening January so he needs a nigga to stay with before school opens

can he stay with a family at a nearby town (45mins drive to Chicago)?

MsNas: Don't mind them jare. Poverty is indeed a bastard. Suffering and smiling they say. Very soon they will start using reverse psychology on you, just like the kid that keeps quoting me up and down.

100K which is around 600USD isn't even up to the measely salary I earn as a graduate assistant. Mind you. I earn minimum wage o... With full tuition waiver. Somebody will now say I should be earning 100K a month in Nigeria and be contented that I'm living a good life? E no go better for poverty and poverty mentality

don't mind him. If I have the chance to leave, I will.

MsNas: Can you read? If yes... Go and re-read what I wrote and pint me in the direction where I laid the blame explicitly on the government. And TF you mean by "Your America? "

that's your overall conclusion anyway. You really sounded like a potential immigrant like your colleagues in the diaspora. And if you did not blame the govt, who owes the blame? To make my point clearer, I'll say most Nigerian youths are blind to opportunities. They'll forever keep searching for job (Just Over Broke). Are you a true patriot? If yes, go and study your friends who are from China. We gotta learn from the Chinese. They have the nose for opportunities. They go back to their homeland to invest with the money they'd made. As for naija, upa! Who cares? The reverse is just the case for my compatriots o. But Nigerians why?

MsNas: I haven't seen one job that somebody in Naija can wake up and decide "oh darn it. I'm gonna stop walking the streets of Lagos looking for a job. This is gonna be my day job" Twitter celeb you say? So I should go trolling all over twitter space searching for followers so that I can amass enough to make me worthy enough of being able to advertise for them on my page? I'm really dumbfounded.

Nigeria is a great place and people can survive and make a real decent living here. But for many, it's a real dream killer. A place where excellence is not applauded, they will rather turn their nose up at you an "yinmu". Saying, "Na today? E Don tey. Somebody did this sometime back". So?? Encourage, praise, and we will be motivated to get better.

Why won't people wanna get out of Nigeria? When I can be here and not have a dime in my pocket, but I'm not hungry nor homeless. I can afford to overdraw my account and pay back later? Things work. I get my money's worth for services rendered. I went to school and while in school I earned enough to pay my rent and bills and still have some left over to enjoy life moderately? I go to the hospital and after being treated, my bills runs into say $950 but because the medical sector and insurance works well, I am only required to pay the $15 copay and carry my yansh home. Yet you're still asking me why I couldn't stay in Naija?

The corruption has eaten deep into the echelon of the Nigerian society and the youths are the ones at the receiving end. Nigeria where they are screaming youth empowerment, youth empowerment. Yet the youth leader of those political parties are 35-45 year olds! darn!!! what sort of rubbish is that?

Everybody has a choice of. Stay or leave, but the OP should not turn is nose down on people that chose to leave.

It will be too dumb of us to owe all our blame to the government. Nigeria is a consuming country and Nigeria is an investment paradise. If you know your onions, your enterprise is most likely to grow in Nigeria than your America.
