Ever since I was born, I only heard that there's juju.


I have never witnessed it.


Until I witness it, Juju is fake!

Fool.
You think this one is argument?

UyaiIncomparabl:
OP. I admire your steadfastness and patience in times like this. As it is, I'm already fuming to a comment a Nairalander made up there. So much sentimental folks.

You have to let him choose between you and your kids and his family, not at the detriment of leaving responsibilities for you. Look, you're a woman, and as such, you should know how to use your veto power, not insultively, but enforce it maturedly that he'd see many ways not to reject your request. Things like these are what scares and irks me about marriage, but then, I accept that challenges will surely come.

Your husband isn't a MAN. I'm not even sure he can give rational decisions, let alone make them. As a rule of thumb, I'll never accommodate any family member to stay in my home for a lengthy period when I get married. I love my solitude, peace and sanity. NONE. Not even my sisters, brothers or whatever, and I expect my husband to adopt same measure. This isn't hostility, but it's a measure to be taken so that it doesn't give room for snitches prying into private and sensitive matters of another's family.

He mustn't live to please everyone. He possibly cannot help every member of his family. The only help they need is a JOB. Leeches inform of relatives.

Look. Have a heart to heart talk with him. If he blatantly downtalks your opinion, serve him a rational decision on a platter of gold. Stop covering for his loopholes, but take care of your children. Don't join to pay the bills, let him do them himself. Since he doesn't want to have sense, get him one in the grocery store.

I repeat, your WIFE and CHILDREN must come first, whatever that follows is inconsequential. I have no time for arguments.

You will be the paragon of a wicked spouse. You are bereft of facilities that incite empathy or sympathy.

Infact you are a sociopath. Having a chequered upbringing is bad.

This is africa where we have little benefits from the government hence we do everything ourselves ranging from taking care of siblings to even in laws.
It's part of our heritage.

It's nothing to me o.

If this is 419. What will you call buying Chinese products less than a cent on Alibaba or AliExpress and selling them on Amazon or eBay for higher prices.

It's a skill and not for everyone.

Its 419.

the buyer offered 50 dollars cos he felt it was original.

Izuogu1:
could you please elaborate more at the bolded?

I thought you said you were in Enugu!?

I am busy ogbeni

Izuogu1:
What do u know about Enugu?

Which lie?

Is there water in Enugu? A gallon of water 30 litres sells at 50 naira around college road close to UNN Enugu Campus.

No water. You cant get boreholes because of topography. People use wells.

Is there money?

How will the op survive?

How will he cope with language?


The city is cursed sef.



.Accommodation?


Shitty 9 by 8 selfcons goes for 230 to 250k at the same place.


Have seen the type of accommodation in the neighbouring Awka? 120 to 170k selfcon in Awka is frosh with water, sit out added even.



I know the reason why there are no much houses in Enugu especially selfcons. I wouldn't go into that except anybody demands.

Let me stop here.

Is there food?



Is there business?


Which is lie?

Resener13:
Don’t mind those shouting Enugu, uyo, Akure. Are these cities economically viable? The answer is no. It’s either abuja, Lagos, Ibadan or ph but there is cultism in ph. So narrow your search to Abuja or Ibadan

All these places are almost same. In all cities you have expensive places and cheaper places.

People say Enugu prolly cos they heard it from others.
Ask them to defend it they run away.

Same way they shout lagos lagos.
.some stay in Aj, surulere, ojuelegba etc and be forming lekki.

Some stay in Mpape, nyanya , gwagwalada, dutse, bwari and even suleja and be forming Abuja.


its well

TifaTravels:
Well, my counsel is that: a territory of operation is very sensitive to the outcome of your pursuit. The best person to ask where to reside is the Holy Spirit. A man can only suggest, only God knows the future and the best. Any place is good depending on where God has destined you to reside. There are many Nigerians in US and UK homeless, looking for what to eat. So, my friend, ask God, define your vision/purpose, analyze your movements, discern your decisions, use your discretion and justify your spirit. Thanks!

Naive.

How do you know that God has prepared a particular place for you?


Are you sure there is anything like predestination?




It has been a big philosophical issue.

Izuogu1:
Are u married with kids? What do u do for a living? Do u have enough financial backup? Why not try Enugu, a very peaceful state. I'm in Enugu and will entertain your questions.

Rubbish place.

No money

No food

No accommodation. This one is very bad.

No good market.



The worst part is water scarcity.. No water in Enugu.

90 % use wells and buy water in tanks.

Tufiakwa..




.@ Op, no place is better than the other as such


Again, I guess you are yoruba, if yes forget east as language will be a barrier unlike lag or ph that uses pidgin or English, east uses igbo.


Oga no place will give you everything.

123abcclown:
I was as ignorant as you. I’m over it now.

People study various courses for different reasons. Respect that and move on.

Puerile logic.

Same way people steal or cheat for different reasons.

We should respect it right?

All graduate studies abroad are useless if they are not STEM or Health.

Why would someone engage in graduate studies in other fields other than mentioned above? Imagine graduate studies in Philosophy or Religion or even Law.


Take law for instance, I know many lecturers of law that studied in Canada, USA and the UK. None is sound in Nigeria here. This is because you are most likely studying their laws and not Nigerian Laws.



No single successful lawyer here will owe it to studies abroad.

Admitwithschola:
You were against absolutes and I agreed with you..But you have made an absolute here..I'm referring to the "you have no business...."

It is actually possible to get partial (not full) tuition waiver and work your way here while you study...I say this because the friend I referred to in my earlier message did this, and a family member did it too..But three bad things fit happen..1) Grades will suffer, 2) The person can overwork and thus destroy their social security records and 3) The person can be frustrated out of schooling..

But in terms of possibility, it's possible. I know so. However, in general, your point holds a lot of water...E go harrrrrrd. The partial funding needs to be close to 100% to increase the possibility of pulling it off.

It is much easier, as you said, if people came to the US fully funded, i.e if dem get tuition waiver plus monthly stipend. Many Nigerians get such opportunity - a lot. Abi me I get am for 2009/2010..Lol.

Please elucidate on overwork and destroying social security.

i cant read pms
write me here pls

Although I have not made any concrete plans about relocation but it seems my life has ground to a halt since I started thinking about it.

I am tired.

They have politicised everything

Just like the post or share it. When you need the post, go to your profile and click on post I've, post I've shared. You will see it there.

I just liked your post and shared it now.

Yet not in my shared or liked post.

Colourich:
That's not true, in the school I worked as a trainee teacher, there is this girl in my class, her daddy and mummy are both doctors but guess what? she is not intelligent, not even close, when I was scoring their exam scripts, she scored 6/60 in one of her exam scripts, not to talk of other papers, this girl has American accent, its no joke but not intelligent and she is a slow writer. This thing happened this year.

I believe the reason for that is 'cause doctors are always busy and they don't have time for their children, in my class, only few parents check their children's books and assignment, the overall best pupil in that class has an attentive mother that always check her home works and class works.

As an educationist who did child and development psychology as a course, I don't believe intelligence is hereditary, I believe it is acquired. I believe in catching them young when they are still in nursery and primary school, that gives them a good foundation cause that's where they start from. If I'm made Minister of Education tomorrow, I will make sure primary and nursery school teachers are well paid ,they are doing a great and hectic job.

Intelligence is hereditary in the main.

If you like nurture a dunce from here to sahara, they will be a dunce.

Obinoscopy:

I sell cars and I can tell you with all boldness that it is easier to make it in Nigeria than abroad. Why do people abroad keep on shipping cars and goods to Nigeria if it was that bad? Those who try to paint Nigeria in a badlight here havent gotten their feet wet yet. It is very possible to have eyes and yet still be blind

Why do you think so?

1kingwriter:
I laugh in Swahili!

A friend of mine, a nurse moved to USA 5 months ago. She got her first pay check last week having worked for a month. As a starter in nursing, she earns $15 hourly and works on the average 16 hours : 15×16 = 240
Daily earning - $240
Monthly earnings - $6000
$6000 × N365 = N2,190, 000.00

Here in Nigeria she earns about N48, 000 monthly as a nurse here before moving to US.

If you divide her monthly earning in the US with what she earned monthly while here in Nigeria, that will be about 4 years earnings.

With the above picture, going abroad has it.

Oponu

So you justed converted pounds to naira?
Does she pay house rents in naira?

NONNYG:
During my NYSC in Nigeria I was earning 19,800 monthly, with that I feed myself, pay for accommodation, transportation to PPA, flex small etc; but after my NYSC I moved to Dubai and I’m earning above what I earned in a whole year just in one month, with free accommodation, free food, free transportation to workplace, free medical, 24 hours uninterrupted power supply etc.

U wan make I come back to Nigeria abi? Unless if I’m offered a job in oil company

So you just converted dirham to naira and assumed you earn your 1 year alawee in a month?

Do you do expenses in naira?

Do you know economics at all?

AtikuDeman:
What work do you do online please?

Leave that iddiot

He is as broke as f.

1500 dollars is roughly 550k. He makes this monthly and he is looking for where to go with 800k?

This animal is looking for whom to scam. Soon he will sell an ebook to u.

Kuwaitian dinar is about the strongest currency in the world and 1 kd exchanges for 1184 naira.

Tell me how the ewu will cope.

He didn't even do any research to know that such countries are no no.

To slap this imbe dey hungry me.

internationalman:
$16 per hour..
Assuming he works for 8 hrs $16 X 8hrs = #44800
Assuming he works for 28 days a month #44800 X 28 =1254400million..
So gateman pays way better abroad than a bank manager in Nigeria...

That's how illiterates with no understanding of economics think.
So he pays bills in naira?

Do you know the cost of a haircut in jand?.
