justwise:

I removed your post because you started by asking the OP to contact you, there is no need for that and i don't trust people who are quick to take discussion like this offline.

Ok, no lele
was only trying to be nice, no hard feeling

pappilo: I also cant understand this no job stuff. Where I work there is a new Aussie or Kiwi fresh of the plane starting a £300/day contract job almost every other week.

There are many young Nigerian boys I know personally making mega bucks up doing contract work on unbelieveable daily pay rates.

And finally, I find it funny that the people that say try US, Canada or Australia have actually never been to these places so know Bleep all about life in those countries.


my friend didnt finish his degree at OSU but he earns £350 per day in london, you are right, i just start my degree course, wont disclose my package but am happy .
Its your mind set
Crime / Re: 6 Arrested For Ritual Murders In Imo State by clapham(m): 11:10am On Dec 06, 2013
I really feel sorry for my country of birth and am grateful to almighty that i can claim another nationality today, while growing up in naija, i travelled west ,east and south,I am originated from lagos.
My main reason of commenting here today is "crime has nothing to do with religion, tribe or colour" until fellow leaders of tomorrow change their idelogy about another tribe, religion,colour will things move in the right place
I wonder how some people will get a job if you already have bad thing about another person tribe?if these happen locally i wonder what you will do when you get to a country like America or United Kingdom where you have different type of people, please remove all this sentiment from your mind , it wont take you anywhere, the same leader of today dont play tribalism, they use it to achieve their selfish desires.

You people will shout racism ,where does it start from? please, i will never critize any tribe, am yoruba but people who knows me it the past hardly figured my tribe as i relate with everyone and which has take me to where i am today by God grace.
Thanks

Romance / Re: Nigerian Men Abroad Prefer Marrying From Home? - Why? by clapham(m): 1:30pm On Dec 03, 2013
PureOhio: They come home because girls in nigeria see those guys as a big deal. "He's a jand guy.. he lives in yankee".
The girls in abroad however know the guys'' secrets-- we're all doing the 9-5 hustle together. No one is special here.

But but but, the guys abroad are getting wiser and ignoring these foolish stereotypes. Most of those girls wifed up from nigeria come here and become liabilities. They see all the "goodies" and start misbehaving. grin
It's better to marry someone in.the same system as you (if you plan on staying here).

The naija-based girl think you can afford brazillian hair. The yankee girl know you've got bills to pay.
All the talks about being more well cultured and better cook is BS. It's even easier to cook here-- there's youtube and constant electricity cheesy

Make dem talk
me i go yarn
@ op you are on your own
What make people here conclude that naija babe are the best submissive and good housewife? its a great mistake many guys in the land of great britain have made.
Most nigerian ladies in UK are even more worst than thier british born counterpart,its our ladies who were born in nigeria and migrated to britain that want to explore and in the course of exploring they dont care and why do you think a guy will settle for such.
everyone to his own opinion, guys coming back home is just a trick and maybe to use the lady to serve one purpose or the other, their are still good naija babes here,i still have loads of suitor back in naija ,nothing will make me think of going there to bring someone here, believe me experience is the best teacher.
Many of my friends are happily married to oyinosha and they are very excited,some osha are even to supportful than naija babes who are secretly saving money to build mansion back home.
yea some occasions where some guys are engaged before travelling occurs where the guy goes home to bring the babe but personally i wont support that idea cos when the babe see london finish ................... you know what will happen.

Culture / Re: Why Do Igbo People Detest Marrying Other Tribes? by clapham(m): 5:14pm On Nov 28, 2013
Have read through load of crap here and cant ignore things, i just have to comment.
I am a product of lagos, precisely Mushin and schooled there as well, most of my friends are from the east but back to the main issue, marriage should have nothing to do with tribe.
As yoruba guy, family will say no to Igbo lady that is crap ,i remember some years ago most igbo lady i asked out always say no because am yoruba "my mum will not allow me marry outside my tribe" so i decide to chill but years later i met Uchechi, menh she was so sweet, dont think about it jooor. with uche things were going on fine but i learned one thing from her, the igbo ladies that say no think or know you dont have money (eegoo) when your pocket is smiling,once they know you can pay the bill forget it.
Even among the Ndi igbo there is hatered as per state, Imo cant marry an Anambra guy etc , i lived in owerri so am talking from experience.Ndidi chop my money ,chizoba was too tribalistic, mary typical aladinma babe start showing proper interest once she heard i went to obodo oyinbo.
Forget it, Real love has nothing to do with tribe

Romance / Re: Why Do Guys Run From Successful And Financially Independent Women? by clapham(m): 5:18pm On Nov 15, 2013
Real live scenarios
I met lady A who happens to work at a very popular bank in Uk and lady B who works with a german bank in UK as well both are good looking ladies but what differentiate both is attitude.
Lady a feels like " am on top of the world" you have to wash my i quote naija english "nyash" before you can talk to me as am very busy
Lady B , older than me very mature but she plays low, life has givien her loads of experience
Me as aperson , no one advice me before i know which one to follow because ego is good but its your attitude that matters, am not a poor bloke, am fine in my own little way

Its a lady attitude that will determine if men will approach of "flee"

Travel / Re: Nigerian In Diaspora Faces Pressures From Home by clapham(m): 5:35pm On Nov 01, 2013
Phder: 1. Don't call yourself what you're not. Don't give people back home the impression that you're rich by posting pictures of you standing in front of another person's car on Facebook.

2. Don't burn bridges, but you can block them pending the time; until you're stable.
NB: This might cause a long term fight/malice, but trust me once you throw a few thousands at them, they would forget that there was a time you refused to pick their calls.
3. Be sincere with your parents, if you're doing well, let them know, if you're not let them know.
4. Deactivate your Facebook account, use twitter (I am really serious about this)

I like your write up, believe me, back in the days, i always upload pictures on fb but after it dawn on me sincerely speaking at moment no one knows my location except my family .
Friends even spread rumour that have been deported years ago, who cares,secrecy is the key when you are outside 9ja shores and know the kind of friend you keep cos some are informat.
i rest my case

I miss Owerri tho even though am yoruba

Am a typical mushin guy priviledge to be where i am today by God, my contribution is straight, help people when you can because you are in land of plenty today but you dont know what tomorrow holds.
As per giving, loads of friend back then changed their number the moment they secure job but the family they were affording then was the same family they ran to in time of trouble.
Give when you can because their prayer goes a long way.

@ Magic bishop - you think its that easy? i wish you well

jp philips:

personally, i don't see any problem, the OP is simply paranoid, im glad you admitted a lot of men have failed their families, a married man will be outside his matrimonial home by 2:00am drinking beer with bachelors and manchelors, arguing stupid soccer while oogling all the hotties around (not the case with the OP), yet, they have a family at home, are they the kinda husbands their wives do things without consulting them?
what exactly does most Nigerian men have to offer these days?

I will not blame the OP's wife if she chooses not to consult a hubby she believes is mentally incompetent.

there is no problem here OP go home to your family.
I totally disagree with you, if a man is not responsible,that doesnt pave way for owning a property elsewhere,some women in the past have been in that situation and they inform thier children about properties they owned,some involve husband family.
And by the way, some nigerian man are still very responsible ,am not married but remember there was promise or vow of "for better for worst" oshaa in my preverance but people around want 9ja women.
many women here are doing the same so nothing is wrong about it.
a property you can not boldly tell your children,smhh
european ladies share bills with their husband no matter what they earn,9ja woman saves her money and build secret mansion.

At your age you don't know that a Nigerian woman runs amok as soon has she is financially liberated? if you don't know this ABC of Nigerian women, what exactly do you know? why will it come to you as a shock? you should be expecting it.
you don't need any advise, you just need to grow up and summon the temerity to stand up to the realities of life.

what is the big deal in your wife building a house anyways? oh! she didn't consult you, ah! perhaps you don't have anything to offer, yes! a lot of men have failed in their decision making capacities, what do you expect your wife to do? continue seeking the opinion of a nematode because you are the man of the house, with no economics? lol! you really over rated yourself.

are you trying to justify the op wife?
men have failed yes,accepted but is that the end of the road? cant both resolve it?
is having secret properties the solution?

Mintayo:
what are you saying sire,you are not making any sense(no offence).
Can you try and read the last post of the Op?
@Op,it is a serious issue,with your mother-in-law involve,with her being aggressive even after apologizing,it is a serious issue,something is not right somewhere,you need wisdom to resolve,I hop it has not gotten to the point where you will tell your wife to choose btw you and her mother+the building+the priest.
God will give you wisdom,i am seeing a redlight o.

my Ex gf and i agreed to get married few months ago but her family decide to change it few years later,so i sense that if i dont dump her now soon or later her mum and grandma will be the decision maker which i can not allow,i would rather marry a white lady who cares.
i dont know why some mother in laws still want to know what is going on in thier daughter life.
typical 9ja mentality

Mehn, i fear some women comment here oh, some are still insisting the operator wife has done nothing wrong, typical myopic mentality,not african nor european mentality.
Its called selfishness,why you a married woman have a hidden property in the face place? i can see some people blaming the man
women always feel insecure when the man is financially capable , after what have seen here i think i may dump my 9ja babe and find oyinosha here
