girl22 did you study math in school at?

Don't you know what the meaning of percentage is? When you say 43% of 2 million Africans have degrees it means out of every 2 million Africans, 860,000 have degrees meaning if 10 million african immigrants arrive next year there would be 4.3 million of those with degrees.

On the other 18% of 2 million black americans will be 360,000. So in relation to a relative size of the other ethnic groups africans have the highest degrees.

Those are just rumors, they are still very much together.

That's human nature, we always wish for the next level of satisfaction. Even billionaires still complain.

amazing story and pictures!, can't believe what these guys go through just to crossover to Europe.

I just finished my bachelor's in Nigeria when I applied for my student visa for masters here in the U.S, I had never travelled out of Nigeria yet I was given the visa with little questions asked. Maybe I was lucky, but you never know until you try.

Too bad, that was the airline I took when leaving Naija. Nice service onboard I must say.

That must be the silliest thing ever, 10 million dollars worth 2 pounds.

@ majik1
My dear, welcome to Nairaland. . . lots of empty headed and immature brats here.

take the advices that u feel will work for u and discard of the others but be careful which ones u hid to.

I don't know why some people wants to make it their headaches because your husband is not attracted to nigerian girls. You don't owe no one no apology.
Is it by force a nigerian man should marry a nigerian girl? fact is alot of nigerian guys these days ain't attracted to nigerian girl.
In as much as I don't like or agree with the way your husband is treating u, especially when it comes to the issue of Food.

since she mentioned that her husband ain't attracted to nigerian girls, I noticed that the topic kind of changed.
Hun, please be careful if not some people will just end your marriage.

ALL THE BEST!!

Busta and Davidylan are making a lot of sense here.

Someone brings a problem asking for solutions and people are busy criticizing the lady's husband for not liking Nigerians and even insinuating all sorts of things that the poster never thought of. One thing you should have in mind is, insulting the lady's husband is an indirect insult on her, she's still married to him and loves him.

Calabar seems to be really progressing, Donald Duke deserves some real praise

Land Test For Crude Oil Deposit

NAIRALANDERS, Please I really need serious advice here. my dad has this big piece of land in the village. of late i have been having this strong feelings that there is oil deposite in the land and my instincts hardly fail me. i need to know how to go about test on the land and what it will cost. looking forward to sound advices

dude, I know a barrel of oil is about $100 right now, I can see where the instincts are coming from.

This is really sad. Imagine the conditions kids have to study in, is it too much to build ordinary classrooms, what do these governors do in their states by the way?

Gamine:

Divorce is on the rise

because the more we imbibe western culture

they pass on every rubbish to us.

If u don't like someone why shld u marry the person

if u feel u can take care of yourself and be all alone

why marry

is it by force!!

please people ooh, be reasonable!

That's a smart one.
When people talk about independence and all that it pisses me off, for christs sake, stay single if you don't want any stress. The last time I checked there is no law against being single anywhere in the world.

Interesting piece of information i must say, It's always good to get first hand information from those who have been there and witnessed the situation first hand, back home everyone thinks anything Europe or America or even 'abroad' generally is heaven.

janami:

dafman, dafman. not all d girls in naija are like d ones u know. sorry to dissillusion u. why shld i collect money frm a guy? is he paying me to date him? i ve money of my own so sorry dear, rechard cards and takeaway as well as money does not work for me. i prefer to accept what i cannot get on my own. ROMANCE!

ok, I believe you

That's sweet and lovely Rubbermaid, good to know we still have sistas who appreciate this much

janami:

this reference to money and take away as gifts to naija babes is really embarrassing me. one thing i know is that i get pretty angry when a guy is asking me out and he offers me money. kai! insult! slap! i dey suffer? now if he comes bearing flowers, oh well, he has gotten my attention. a guy will be sweet to think to bring me flowers

I'm sure you know you're lying through the teeth

A typical Ajepako and Ajebota girl

Don't be so sure, the so called ajebota girl might not have looked different from the Ajepako when she was a kid. Most of them 'brush up' and 'wisen up' when they get older.

davidylan:

No be by force.

after all the wahala of resizing picture, NEPA abi PHCN fit take light for cybercafe, your visa form go hang between Lagos and Benin Republic, e no go even leave africa not to talk of reaching Kentucky consular center.

It sure hurts when foreigners say these things about Nigeria. We have people in government who pursue external glorifcation with zest more than attending to the crucial issues of nation building and alleviating the suffering of the masses. They can spend millions campaigning for the rights to host the games and even billions to host the actual games just to prove that Nigeria has arrived, but when it comes to basic things like "Lagos-Ibadan express road", electricity, water etc, they will set a 20 year plan.

na by force

lol

Nigerians are just too funny. Every problem needs a spiritual deliverance

Even as a kid I knew there was something really fishy about wrestling, in a sport where you can use your fist to hit your opponents about anywhere, I always wondered why teeths were not falling all over the place.

Why did you post the travel alert here? is this an American forum? they are trying to scare their citizens from going to Nigeria, and you are swallowing everything hook, line and sinker. i don't see what use that information is to Nigerians abroad. we know wetin dey happen, afterall na there we grow up.

Good for him, He won cos he's real, no frontin. The show is not about who has the best behavior, or the most responsible. If you can be yourself as much as possible you got my vote. Big ups to Richard, he's the MAN
