A beautiful and an economically viable bridge that would enhance businesses between SA and her neighbours. Way to go,SA!

Some fools still have the gut to abuse Tinubu on China thread, shameless idiots from a certain impoverished region who should hide their face when men are talking...

The best state in Nigeria: Tinubu Lagos
The richest state in Nigeria: Tinubu Lagos
Infrastructural wise: Tinubu Lagos
Economy: Tinubu Lagos

Still some certain people whose dream is to come to same Lagos with their polythene bags will still criticize same Lagos...

I've never seen people so shameless before...

I've always tried to avoid this 'Tinubu built Lagos' arguement because it is total bollocks. Tinubu performed his constitutional duties as a governor. Was he perfect? Absolutely not! Did he enrich himself and his cronies while in office? Without a doubt. Now coming to this nonsensical notion that Tinubu built Lagos. Permit me to ask you lots some questions:
1: Where was Tinubu when Lagos had LSTC?
2: Where was Tinubu when Gen Buba Maruwa ( a Northerner) was governor of Lagos State?
3: How many universities did Tinubu build in Lagos?
4: Where are the bridges that Tinubu built? The most important bridge in Lagos (the 3rd Mainland Bridge) was built by Babangida.
5: Where was Tinubu when Lagos State was known for orderliness and cleanliness?
6: Where was Tinubu when Jakande was building housing estates all over Lagos?
Most of the great landmarks in Lagos were built way long before Tinubu got into politics.
Make una leave story abeg!

U guys should not forget to post beautiful pictures of china. I wonder if cue64 is still in China

Nurse na good money oooo! May all the goodies God Has packaged for you in Australia come to fruition. Amen! Regarding Cue64. I don't think he's still in China cos he hasn't posted in a long while. He must be doing fine wherever he is. Alright, you take care. God bless!

See sweat for Ice face! Gra-gra don do am something. Humility don hug am.

LOVEGINO:
My Her gentle soul rest in perfect peace

Sorry, mate! My deepest condolences to you and your family!

Sweetvie:
Wow! Big girl already. Time sure do flies. That's something, I don't think am willing to stay in a country that i won't be granted a citizenship after so many years kinda discouraging. How are you able to secure ur permanent resident? Still doing that ur Esl job?. Am still gonna visit china, am just still holding my horse for now.

You're right. Well,China's just the way it is. The country already has about 1.4 billion people, that's a humongous population to provide social, health, infrastructural, medical ...amenities for. Granting citizenships to foreigners will be stretching the amenities extremely further, perhaps that's one of the reasons citizenships aren't granted. Personally, I'm not bothered about it because God has used China to bless me financially way, way beyond my imagination! Regarding permanent residency, I'm currently on a 2-year category. I'll apply for a green card next year because I have met all the criteria such as owning of a property (optional but advantageous to own one), being financially stable, having been married and have resided in the country for the recommended amount of years and having the stipulated amount of money 200k Yuan ($31k) that will be deposited into an account designated by the immigration department for a period of six months.. Above all, and most importantly, one must not have any criminal records..Things are looking good so far! And yes, I'm still in the ESL sector. Aside from that, I'm also into procurement services for clients in Nigeria.. How about you? What do you do for work? Did you get Canadian citizenship before you emigrated to Australia? All the best, mate!

Sweetvie:
Hmm that's serious. I thought u are supposed to be granted since you married a Chinese. Aww I still remember when u posted ur daughter hair, am sure she is a big girl now. When are you bringing her to visit Nigeria? Lol, I got abt two friends over there they were not able to get permanent residence.

Vivid memory you have! My daughter's now in third grade! Time sure flies, doesn't it? China isn't there yet in terms of citizenship status via marriage, and frankly I don't think it'll change anytime soon because here, in South Korea and in Japan,the concept of citizenship is defined by bloodlines. So here you'll find foreigners that are disgruntled about not being granted Chinese citizenships after being married to their Chinese spouses for a couple of years because they had assumed they'd be granted citizenships. And this has led to some foreigners, who perhaps got married for the wrong reasons abandoning their marriages because even with a Chinese spousal visa, one is prohibited by from working - taking up paid employments! So what most people do is to set up businesses in their Chinese partner's name, and start making the Benjamins because after all that's the main koko! And others find employments under the radar. Anyhow, anyhow,monkey must jump!

Sweetvie:
Smile. Yeah, I just move down here little over a year now i was in Canada b4 i moved here. Seriously am so amaze on how NL turn to campaign center.

Canada to Perth is one helluva long flight. Why did you make the move since Canada is considered by a lot of people as the place to be? Yes ooo, has turned a political campaign centre with supporters of Tinubu, Atiku and Obi pitched against one another.

Sweetvie:
You guys now leave nairaland for us. We don't see post abt the beauty of china again . I missed it. You're a citizen by now, right? I heard they don't give their citizenship to Africa like that?

They don't give citizenship to anybody regardless of race. Citizenship is only granted to people whose parents are Chinese; a parent (either the mom or dad is Chinese),grandparents or anyone with proven blood ties to the country. Babies born to foreign couples residing in China are not granted citizenships. My daughter is Chinese but I'm not. I dey manage my permanent residency jejely..

Sweetvie:
Lol... They're doing great. Hunan, right? That's good to hear. Naija is just there o
They're still trying to make same mistake n vote for the wrong person. Am somewhere around Perth.

Perth,Aussie! That's cool! I have some mates that end. How long have you been there? Yes, Hunan, it is! The possibility of Nigerians again voting in the wrong person is quite hight from the comments flying around on NL..

Nice thread. Observing mode activated.. China has numerous beautiful cities, and tourist destinations to explore. That could've been Nigeria if our past and present leaders had placed the development of Nigeria above their greedy, selfish and corrupt practices.

Sweetvie:
Am good. How are you doing and family?
I decided to drag u out it been a while u post. This is serious... How are you guys coping?

And u did drag me out! Thanks! Family's fine. How's yours? We're in the south of China, no droughts here whatsoever, only the crazy humid summer heat. Lucky it rained yesterday, and today the weather's turned cloudy and windy with the lowest temperature being 22 and highest 27! How everys for naija?

Sweetvie:
@chukxie what is going on over there

How you dey? The heat has been extremely crazy this summer with temperatures hitting 40°C in a lot of provinces and cities across China. With no rainfalls, prolong heat waves come drought, that's what's happening. In Chongqing Municipality, the government used cloud seeding technology - shooting silver iodide into clouds to induce precipitation. As we approach autumn, the weather is expected to let up!

There's nothing special about this property to warrant such an outrageous selling price. Nothing! Abi na because say na ikoyi e dey? Still not worth it.

I like to scratch my balls, and sometimes sniff my fingers. Most guys do it. It's not a conscious act; it's something we do without realizing it. Another thing I do is using my phone in the toilet, it makes pooping pleasurable !

Congratulations to him! It's sad that Nigeria is still a mess inspite of all the academic degrees politicians / policymakers in Nigeria possess.

The wicked will always be with us. Under Buhari's government, thousands of Nigerians have been abducted, raped and killed. So, Buhari deserves to be on that list. Btw, I would've thought Mao Zedong would make the list, too, considering the number of Chinese people who died as a result of the cultural revolution he initiated.

I dislike almost every word that comes out of Buhari's mouth or any word attributed to him. What an idiot!

richiemcgold:
hasty or no hasty, Mr governor still have to do something about uncontrollable influx of northerners and those unregistered migrants into ondo state.
As of today, there's no corner in AKure where you won't see these people in their numbers. Some are even from far away countries like Burkina Faso, Mali, Niger and Senegal. They are now bringing in their wives and children to reside here. They are literally everywhere from arakale to old garage to araromi, odojoka, oke aro, ayedun, ijoka, benin garage and many other parts of Akure. Are we supposed to fold our arms and look on while these people dominate us in our own land?

Sad! A ticking time bomb is what we have in our hands! The picture you've described is playing out across all non northern parts of Nigeria. The Fulanis have encompassed us to strike whenever they activated. May God help us. Amen!

Hi! You alleged the dude is a scammer. Can you substantiate this allegation? Thanks..

Honestly speaking, some Nigerians are horribly stupid! Calling a President Zelensky "a coward","a fool" for standing up to Putin, and defending his country in the face of Russia's invasion is ludicrous. It is akin to saying the Nigerian government is a coward for standing up to Boko Haram terrorists who are trying to dominate and control Nigeria.

What did you guys expect? I'm sure Nigerians in the diaspora aren't surprised one bit by our nation's abysmal passport ranking. When some 9jas carry Yahoo-Yahoo, azza, drugs, cultism, human trafficking and every form of negative behaviors go abroad! Although the average Nigerian is resilient and can survive in some of the harshest conditions, a few of our brothers and sisters don cast our image. Before COVID-19, obtaining a Chinese visa na war,but across the border for Niger, the same visa na akara..Sharply you don get visa..

My prayers are with her. She'll not die but live her years to the fullest. Amen.

What better standard of living is that?
Same thing most ignorant Germans said during Hitler's time,they took him as a mini god.
At least you can insult your country's president as much as you like, try that out there and watch what's going to happen.
The little freedom you have here is something compared to Russia.
There are even weird laws against disrespecting Russia and speaking against Putin if I am right.

Too many fatheads here! Educate him more.

kingthreat:
China is doing well without the West. Same with Iran and North Korea. It is time for Russia to do the same.
India can also do the same. As for African nations, we are dependencies till tomorrow.

Putin has failed to develop Russia beyond being a military superpower. Russia under Putin lacks the business savviness of the Chinese, Indian, Japanese, Koreans...How many Russian products have you seen on the international market?

Officialgarri:
Russia won't use any of these. Ukraine is too little to enjoy such a blessing.

In an instance where NATO chooses to be used by the Devil, then Russia will unleash the Satan

France has nukes.
The UK has nukes.
Russia - 6,255 nuclear warheads
United States of America - 5,550 nuclear warheads
China - 350 nuclear warheads
France - 290 nuclear warheads
United Kingdom - 225 nuclear warheads.
May this crisis be solved through diplomacy..

It is a dog-eat-dog world! In international political, everyone lies. The Americans,Germans, Russians, French, Indians, Chinese...You name it, they all lie in order to obtain whatever they want; change narratives; sway opinions or simply to obtain public sympathy. Opinions are changed, influenced, obliterated through information, and that's why there's something called Information Warfare. The countries mentioned above all have propaganda information tools which billions of people consume daily. CNN, BBC, CGTN, Fox, RT, Aljazeera... all serve as propaganda tools. The often 'innocuous' FB, IG, Wechat, Weibo... can also serve as propaganda tools. The only people inept at information warfare are black Africans, and that's why we are always at the lowest step of the ladder of international politics. We are good at consuming whatever garbage the West, the Chinese,the Russians, the Indians and even the Arabs feed us. We munch on them hungrily then off we go to beer parlours, FB, Twitter, Wechat, WhatsApp...to discuss the latest gist in town. We pick sides, form teams and argue amongst ourselves endlessly. Ever wonder if the West, Russians,Chinese...argue amongst themselves about us as we do them? They don't give a rat arse about us. Frankly, why should they? If black Africans must survive this century, we need to build our own global news networks where our stories will be told the way we want them told.

Robot Buhari has gone to recharge his lithium batteries as light no dey 9ja. A president go travel to another man's country just to consult with his physicians meanwhile better better doctors dey him country but sadly no good hospitals cos govt no care about hospitals for 9ja..

Good! That's a beautifully crafted watch. However, in my opinion, that money would have been better invested on a piece of property, or some profitable investment. Can't tell a man how to 'chop' his millions sha!
