Hey, lol @ this take by Le-confiscate-the-tape. If that's the case why so he so anxious to sweep the tape under the rug.

I think it was his sponsors that didn't want the tape to see the light of day.

This shows that most naija guys love intelligent women. Tell me which naija guy would love to marry a girl who didn't go to university?

OGA POSTER,
YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELF FROM QUOTING FROM A SOURCE THAT LACKS ANY CREDIBILITY. IT SEEMS THAT NOWADAYS ANY BODY CAN CITE ANYTHING FROM THE INTERNET AND EVERYBODY WOULD BELIEVE IT. I NO BLAME UNA , NA COMPUTER ILLITERACY DEY CAUSE THE PROBLEM SHA.

LadyT:
seriously its this stupid mentality of ignoring serious issues that has bleeped Nigeria up to no end rubbish. If you can get 100% proof tell her jare

Thank you o jare my sista. How can somebody call himself your friend and look the other way when she sees your man cheatin on you? abi what are friends for, if not to watch out for each other. [size=18pt]I AM SURE THIS IS WHY AIDS HAS SPREAD A LOT IN NAIJA[/size]. People see there friends fiancee or spouse cheating on them and they say nothing.

Poster,
[size=28pt]IF SHE WERE REALLY YOUR FRIEND, THEN YOU WOULD TELL HER THE TRUTH, IF IT WERE YOU, WOULDN'T YOU WANT TO KNOW?[/size]

What if the guy gives the girl AIDS while being married? then you would also be responsible for her situation. Remember that you can prevent a potential situation like this from happening. FRIENDS ARE SUPPOSED TO ALWAYS WATCH OUT FOR EACH OTHER.

No i am not a retard girl. This is what bleaching does to people.

oops, terrible comment on my part, i apologize for that.

Priceless!!!! ha ha ha ha oga poster you too much jare.

johnkent:
Sir, u can say all you want but someone in nigeria will neva understand. NEVER UNDERSTAND.
let them come and see how easy it is here. Am a student and I have a 4 bedroom 3 bath house outside of chicago and I just got done paying off my 2009 Nissan Murano(costs about $32,000 USD). With a student visa man, the sky is your limit. u are just as good as a US citizen. As soon as you land for america, scholarships and assistanships will be everywhere for ya especially if you are nigerian. If you want a work permit, just show your nigerian passport at USCIS office and it will be all yes sir, yes ma and u'll get your employment authorization card (EAD).
Life is good guys. Who say surviving as a student in America dey hard.
This is what most of you want to hear and here it is.
Goodluck

ha ha ha ha ha ori e pe jo. Now you understand what i am saying.

C2H5OH
You are soooooooooo right. If anybody watched the playoffs last year they would realize that even comparing Lebron is so unfair because Kobe is waaaaaaaaaaay much better than him that its not even funny.

kizzyaka:
No, I am not crazy. I regret that you took my comment this hard (maybe based on personal experience), but I am sure there are much better ways to address your concerns without being abusive. My statement(s) have been based on personal experience(s) also. Just because it did not work for you or someone you know does not mean another person should not try. It does not mean a brilliant student in Nigeria whose potential for growth has already been stunted by policies or non-policies in Nigeria should not jump on the gun when they have the opportunity to develop themsevles into someone that makes a difference. It is your obligation to tell these youths of your experience(s) so they may learn from it. But please do not advise them stay back in Nigeria where brilliance is not celebrated. Again, I am not saying life in the US as a student is a bed of roses. It requires positive thinking, focus, and patience. As a student here, I had to work as pizza delivery driver to make ends meet, I had to deny myself some material comfort to pay my fees, once in a while i had to be incommunicado with my friends back in Nigeria, and I had little association with my fellow Nigerians here. But all in all it worked out, and I would do it again if I have to. United States is still a land of opportunity but you have to work for it.

Davidif, I really think both of us can contribute immensely to this thread without tearing at each other's throat. Note there is a reason I put the words as 'love' and 'marry'.

Sorry for the disrespect, but i just took it too personal. I might not be in that situation but i have friends who have been there and it really really breaks my heart.
Have there been Nigerians who came here with nothing and made it? Of course, i am friends with some of them but the way you put the situation, you made it sound like it was a given that everything would just work itself out and that you would just find somebody who would just 'marry' you or 'love' you.
I know people who just lost there financial assistance and her now stuck in limbo so i don't want you to raise peoples hopes so that they don't end up in a bad situation. If you want to come to yanki and you don't already have assistantship or a full scholarship, then you must come with money. Even if you have assistantship, bear in mind that you might lose it so one must always be careful.
I have heard of people who won the lottery and decided to leave there middle class life in naija ONLY to be be doing menial jobs. That is sooooooooo tragic. Now there is nothing wrong about doing menial jobs when you are going to school (i've done several) but when you are out of school and that is your means to an end, then that is really sad.

funkybaby:
shut up there, you bloody fool !

what do you know? idiot ! 

or are you so daft that you do not know that certain creams even though they appear okay can darken the skin and cause damage?
or did i reccommend any cream to the woman? Or are you suffering from cataract of the eye and you missed the part where all i did was condemn the use of vaseline?

the way you have been going on and on and condemning the woman.
Boy, take it easy. Stop drinking ibruofen on another woman's headache. If she decides to use undiluted hydroquinon on her son's skin, how is that any business of yours?

I do not know why fools like you find it hard to address posts to others without being insultive.


idiot !

Your mother is the fool, you stupid ugly bleached idiot. See as ugly and terrible your skin is and you have  the audacity to give  other people tips about skin lotion. Foolish old looking idiot. Why don't you go and get plastic surgery so that we don't have to see that eyesore of a face you hag.

Omo, Dez Bryant's appeal was turned down meaning that he is effectively banned for this season. So sad.

Wow, finally the courts are working in Nigeria.

This is what the courts are for, to stop the FG from overreaching.

LaNiger:
NYU is a good school, but I did not like the way we were treated when we attended an information session. My company is paying for part of the program so I would have to quit my job to go to Columbia. It is not recommended to do your BA & MBA in the same university, a diverse educational background is quite important so I chose Fordham which has a great MBA program.

No I don't attend the Redeemed Church of God in the Bronx, I have nothing against them. I go to Times Square Church.

Good luck with your program.

WHAT?!?!?!? YOU HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO GO TO NYU AND YOU DECIDED TO GO TO FORDHAM!!!!!! CHAI, Nigerians, that's like someone giving you the opportunity to stay at the Ritz Carlton and you decide to stay at the Holiday Inn.

Like the saying, nothing is impossible. I am almost sure some people that have come to the US with F-1 visa has made it, and they did not come from wealthy families or have someone send them money, or even on schorlaship. The first year is usually the hardest one, since the student has to pay for the full tuition ( but I think to receive the I-20 in the first place the student must have paid the tuition ahead). However, once the student is in the US he/she might be lucky to find a citizen they 'love' and eventually 'marry' him/her. This will help change the student's imigration status and the student will get work permit from DHS to legally work outside the school. This will also change the academic status of the student in terms of school fees paid. For the undergrad, if this is a state school, there will no longer be a tuition just registration fees. For the graduate student there may still be tuition, but it may be considerably less than the international student tuition. I realise I am a bit vague in some of my explanations but I am sure if you are in such situation you can find more answers if you dig deeper.

KIZZYAKA
[size=18pt]ARE YOU CRAZY?!?!?!?!?[/size] OR DO YOU EVEN WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT. Please don't decieve Nigerians into coming here on false hopes. I have seen Africans in perilous situations because of these nonsense.

Do you know how stupid that sounds. If a girl from sierra leone or rwanda came to naija looking for citizenship would you marry her? Gosh, people don't think at all. Do you know HOW RARE IT IS FOR A YANKI PERSON TO MARRY A NAIJA? or have we forgotten that we are not the most good looking people on earth. It is very rare for a yanki person (especially a good one)  to marry a naija person and the ones that do are usually UGLY AND FAT or those that can't find any men or women. If you see situations like that then you should beware of that marriage, or don't you know how extremely tough if it is to be a relationship with oyinbo people (especially if the person is crazy)? I don't think you know, because if you did you wouldn't want to mislead our people. Even if at the end of the day, you marry the person, do you think that your visa status would just automatically change? or don't you know how long it takes?

Omo if i sound a little angry then bear with me but what is pissing me off is when i see naija students who came here believing all the numerous untruths that they have heard from people when coming here.


[quote author=yankeeboy$ link=topic=344772.msg4856734#msg4856734 date=1257290012]I sometimes wonder what is wrong with you senseless idiots that paste nonesence on nairaland, who tells you that Nigerian students are suffering in the US. I have a friend of my about 5 of them there are parents are so poor in such that they dont have 3 sure meals a day and there son is doing well in the US as a student, It depends on the school you go to in US and how you make payment arrangements with the school, If you dont like to go to school in US then dont discourage others. you can remain in Nigeria a useless country for the rest of your miserabel life, Idiots[/quote]Look at this one!!! because they told you that they are doing well does not necessarily mean that they are. I have Nigerian friends who came here and who thought America was heaven, now they are finding out the true reality that IF YOU DON'T HAVE MONEY DON'T COME TO THE US TO SCHOOL. Yes, there are some very lucky few who get assistantship (for grad students) but what happens when your proffessors says that the department doesn't have funding anymore and you lose your assistantship. Then you have to leave school and spend the next 20 years of your life washing dishes and mopping offices for a living while your friends that stayed in naija are building houses and buying cars.


The bible says that one must always be dilligent in ALL THINGS and that he that is the most dilligent would always prosper. The problem is that Nigerians love to leave everything to chance or 'divine intervention'. God gave us brains to plan also. So if you don't have your financial house in order, THEN DON'T COME TO YANKI.

tRoOE:
use Aveeno Baby Moisture Cream and wash

funkybaby:
what body cream are you using on him?

if you are using vaseline or any form of petroleum jelly, stop it.
it darkens the skin especially in hot climate

Look at this shameless ones replying. Instead of loving the skin that the almighty gave you, you are rejecting it. Later when they have skin cancer at 60 years old, they would be blaming it on juju.

OgidiBoy:
Sorry my brother, the game was over at the half, but if your boys didn't keep turning the ball over, and all the dropped balls in the first quarter it could have been a game.

Anyways I'm hoping you'll kick some sooner ass when you play em.

Yep, if the NCAA had not suspended our player, Dez Bryant who is hands down the best wide reciever in the country, then our QB wouldn't have been forcing throws to those second rate recievers who were just dropping balls left and right.

This is an example of how the press picks who the best player in the world is and everybody follows. For the real fans who don't always watch the "big 4" or the Milan's and the Madrid's. They would conclude that,
[size=28pt]SHAY GIVEN IS THE BEST GOALKEEPER IN THE WORLD. [/size]
He is right up there with Julio Cesar, Saint Iker (Iker casillas) and Buffon.

dayokanu:
Adebayor got banned and lost his rhythm

Yep, it seems so.

OgidiBoy:
I'm just playing nah

Girl that your picture na woooooo chineka slim you too much I swear

Look at this one, don't you have your own girl? ABEG SHE IS MINE.

So you do attend University of texas right?

[size=18pt]NO.[/size]

Kevin Durant was at my school yesterday, to watch his alma mater whoop my school pretty good on national television .

[size=28pt]YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY, [/size] See how Texas taught us a lesson. I was at the game, by the time the Longhorns scored in the beginning of the 4th quarter people started leaving. What a depressing game.

SEFAGO:
i thot u were in the US? well the ones in the UK i dont know anything about- but i have met lot of nigerian girls who went to secondary school in the UK and came to school in the US. They are quality to quote olu maintain

I'm in the US and not the UK, i thought you were in the UK based on some of your comments i've read.

SEFAGO:
man there are some hot nigerians girls you just have to know the right ones. The ones who lived all their lives in VI/Ikoyi/London and who have grown beautiful on the stolen wealth of nigeria as a result of their pot-bellied politician fathers. Those are the ones you should be looking for

Me?? date the child of an aristocrat? abeg no o . They are just as snubbish and condescending as there parents who feel that the world belongs to them. Some of them are just as mean as there big "yanshed" fat mothers.

Also, i don't know whether you are in the UK but the quality of naija girls here is sooooooo very poor, i guess its because they are all from a specific strata of society (the upper class).

german007:
Gosh amaka, u sabi write no be small, lol

I am telling you!!! She has very very strong opinions on everything.

SEFAGO:
I will comment

you mean in the US? or in naija?, well in the former, Man I haven't like met any straight up from naija girl- here like I mean straight from the African bush . All the ones I have met are either the kids of ambassadors/politicians (part-time nigerians) who are very sophisticated I can say, but who dont want to associate with village boy like me with my thick accent and the fact that i still use the word "you know sha".

But as Dbanj says when the money starts rolling, they will follow you

I said village looking girls and not village girls as in a huge amount of them are not attractive at allllllllllllll.
