Nigerian High Commission in Ottawa Canada is a huge joke! Well, the 2013 issue was in the news but same thing happened in 2014, between July and September when Chief Ojo Maduekwe, the tired old scam, locked the passport office without prior notice for 4-5weeks on the basis of the lady in the passport office being incompetent. Lol. It was a disaster! People, mostly students, trooped in from far away Regina, Sask, Vancouver, etc to get their passport only to get to the building door to see, sorry, we have closed the passport office indefinitely! People fainted. Students couldn't renew their study n work permits, workers couldn't renew their work permits, etc One week, 2, 3, 4! Locked.
In my aluta mode (because I was on the verge of losing my job), I composed a rather long and mean letter directed to the clueless old man Chief Ojo. I tweeted at Okupe, Ezekwezili, Nigerian foreign service, etc. Mehn, that place is just a write off...lazy fatsos, old and tired looking market women, bad English, bad dress code, ill mannered, etc
Smh

ℓσℓ... It is in no way Igbo, it is Yoruba literally meaning "I would be happy if I see" (hope I'm correct)

Can you imagine. Mbari = If I see
Mbayo = I would be happy or I would have been happy if I saw it...Omg! Makes sense

Aunty Ayo is actually a very very good school located in Obalende/Ikoyi axis.
Another wonderful school with a funny name I know is Mbari Mbayo Nursery and Primary School in Jibowu, Yaba, Lagos.

I use to that Mbari Mbayo school then. I couldn't figure out the name cos it sounded ibo...

I remember one Aunty Kenny nursery n primary school on Lagos road, Ikorodu...lol. Some name.

Chai! I sure say na that Mushin, Agege, Ketu, Fadeyi area u grow up.
I remember that Laide Perfume Jelly (jolomi lara, jolomi ni run, ohun s'itoju omode pelu. Laide Perfume Jelly, ko see ma ni fun gbogbo ebi) usually during one popular tv soap opera then. I definitely know Uncle Soyo is no longer available.

Its Awin
Botanical name: Dialum indium

You are right. English name is Velvet Tamarind.

Trust me it is not the selfie that's the problem...it is the pouting of the lips that's the real problem. So unattractive

Since you know the cause of the problem - forking out money from your joint account - then split up the account, not the union! If aside from the sending money home there is no other problem, split up the account, simple. Whites are not like us dishing out money to every tom dink and harry - village head, late uncle's second widow, daddy's cousin, cousin's cousin, gateman at home, gateman at the office, area boys, etc. They save their money and encourage people to work to earn it. So save your marriage, do the needful. Jah bless

That curling thing is unbelievably uninteresting and meaningless. I tried it once, giant rocks sliding on ice, two sweepers cleaning the slide path like it's some real deal...on top of that my sole were freezing at some point cos I didn't use d rubber boots...dry game

I see no sense in this. Nothing connects together. So everyone will watch haplessly and hopelessly as Tinubu will become president? Very weak conspiracy theories FFK. Thou can do better

..."Lollzz dunce you don't even have anything to say..you're just a swine and a low life we aint in the same class so go play with your fellow swine and stop seeking my attention. You're a disgrace to your family and a shame. Well your stupid family is busy being useless so they won't notice....


And thank you for admiring my pic.

I warned your arse, those who live in glass house don't throw stones. And those who have glass jaws always watch their mouth. You don't call out other people's mom just like that. You try it again, I will not only wreak havoc on your miserable life but on your entire clan...This is just me being nice. Trust me

iphanyiuma:
I just checked it guess what I saw...go bleep your self in hell dead poo

Lol. Ifeanyi. So I checked your profile pix. Your fried gay head looks way bigger than your skinny toothpick frog-leg arms. Then I thought, it could actually be your dead mother in the picture hanging on that unpainted wall behind you.
This is pathetic. How could she have given birth to deep fried brainless big-for-nothing wide-mouthed sickly dunce like you! Was your entry into this world the cause of her exit outta this world? Poor bi'a'tch...Your large head must have caused ontold damage to her tiny punnany. Pathetic bi'a'th...even more pathetic product

So nigeria use chalk or white marker to mark her boundaries and borders ni, abi?

Hello Nairalanders, Please I need ur advise. Am currently 2months pregnant, and My husband is thinking of us relocating to Canada. I currently work in the bank while my husband is into Forex and Securities Trading Business. We were doing averagely okay until last year when business started shaking, my husband has lost a lot and now he is thinking of us relocating to Canada to start afresh. If I resign and we sell our properties, and the little savings we have should be enough to sponsor him for a Postgraduate Course (2years), while I follow him as his wife ( then I get a job), he wants this option cos am a professional and I have good work experience. Option 2 is for me to do a post graduate course and he accompanies me (mayb I will get a good job fast cos of my qualifications). if I wait till we have our baby, the expenses will be much(I.e the financial requirement for the visa). My hubby's uncle is ready to assist us, but my husband doesn't want to take the risk of investing in business again. He has Sasacheskwan or Toronto in mind. I will really appreciate advise thanks

High risk alert!
You are 2 months pregnant, there might be questions asked as to why you want to give birth to your kid in Canada and not in Nigeria. For a newcomer, health insurance and stuffs that come with baby birth in Canada is something to consider.
Two, have you started processing the relocation thing? Do you have the PR offer yet? If you have not started, then everything is still but a dream because that isshhh takes years to materialize in some (most) cases.
If you or your hubby want to enter as student, it might be hard to drag the partner along at the same time. First you cant fill the form and put in there - married, spouse coming with me. Lol. You wont even be considered talk less offering you an admission. Second, international students tuition is expensive unless there is absolutely more than enough money to take care of both you and junior, the unborn baby.
Most importantly, think about the unknown. You are going to a land you have never been before to start afresh...as in from the very scratch. Cultural difference, language barrier, no prior Canadian experience, etc.

Think like this: There are many people in the country who are highly qualified, both citizens and PRs, yet work eludes them. I'm not saying there aren't jobs but you coming from another country (Africa esp) and thinking you 'll just get in and get that job and get those $$$ rolling in is a mirage. You might be disappointed. As a newcomer, to start having a meaningful income takes years - 3 at the least. It's a fact. Check it! And say you carry belle come join, lol, my sister no be small something o...As a pregnant lady, you might not be allowed to work or you work very limited hours barely making $$...Your hubby being new in the country, and regardless of his qualifications, might have to take to menial jobs for the 'time being (which might run into years)', and your sponsoring uncle isn't gonna provide that dream job for you...so mehn, Odikwa highly risky.

My advice? Read the above again. Still not clear? Abo oro laanso fun omoluabi...

iphanyiuma:
looks like your mother prepared that poison for me

Aww! So you be mumu sef.
Mumu.
I pity you. Na my mama you spread that your wide camel-ass-like mouth call like that?

Watch, those who live in glass house don't throw stones. Check my NL history newbie.

Grab a bible, read psalms 119. If after reading the longest chapter in the Bible she never gree, get on the bus and find another scape goat...no dulling.

Chai! All the young entry level female workers go yie ween! Those randy senior management guys go bang anything bangable as those girls run helter shelter to save their jobs...

its a long story bro..to cut it short a yoruba woman's cooking is horrible....

Mumu

Lol...sorry o but e be like say popsy sef don turn fish be that. Maybe momsy was just sending out a warning to popsy...

If he had been acting this smart in the last 6years, maybe by now he would have been our concensus candidate. Yoh, it's too late to be Rambo...

Gandoki is no longer a warrior. He is now a politician in Sokoto.

So Dara is watching mum n dad do the thing? Dara na sharp pikin o

I have never admired GEJ nor any of his policies but on this one GMB is wrong totally wrong in Democratic setting everyone says what he want to say, Obama is called monkey etc so if he cannot take it he should back down

Obama is called monkey but was Obama at any point in time threatened with deaths and death wish? Who would pay a national newspaper to publish such ad without being tried for hate, libel and the likes? Fayose is a brainless fat head.

Don't be so harsh on her, yes I agree there are many conspiracy theories and twists to the story but if this story was true, and she had any hidden intentions, do you think she would have broadcast it on social media like she's doing? There are various degrees of boldness, and not every woman reacts to such harassment by slapping their assailants, some exhibit shock and flee from the scene. But from experience, I tend to agree that there has been "harmless"contacts in the past which the guy misconstrued as signals. The best bet is to tell her husband, even if he takes it wrongly initially, chances are that he will see reason when he calms down. what am saying is that the benefits of her telling her husband far outweighs the disadvantages. My two cents

No, I am being harsh on her. this is a real life issue. It's my best candid advice. Besides, there is no boldness here, it is Nairaland, everyone has hidden identity so i dont really think posting it here can be termed boldness, she's just seeking out advice and before one can give advice, you must try to spread out the facts. Otherwise all the pieces of advice here are just baseless and could cause unexpected results for her.
And when you say 'harmless' contacts, its kinda funny. Unless you know the lady in question, I think there had been contacts, harmless or not. Contacts that would warrant such touches and rubs...Bro, it's just my candid advice. When i first read the story, i thought to myself that if my wife told me, my first reaction would be to go face my friend...then i thought again, what gave him the boldness to touch my wife? then i reasoned my wife must have encouraged it someone and not telling me about the earlier seemingly harmless touches is another story. So let's call a spade a spade, not spoon.

Lol. Say the truth, he's done this before. That wasn't the first time. You must have been involved in this for a while and you never complained. That's y he came at you in the kitchen otherwise no friend will have the balls to go grab his friend's wife's yansh without a pre-existing relationship.
If I were your husband and you told me this, that's what I'd ask you - was that the first time? I don't think you are faithful enough in this marriage. you still doing side kicks. You are only concerned because the man is well known to you guys. Check yourself and assess your marriage.
On the other side, if that was his first time, when he grabbed you, an instinctive reaction would be to slap him. But you didn't You indulged him, encouraged him...next time he's gunning for the real deal, and God knows you will open the gate without resistance
Final point : if this was his first, and you didn't like it, and you are determined to keep your family-marriage, tell your hubby. Advise him on how to deal with it peacefully. The guy has to be cut off. But prepare for your husband fight with you if he's a sensible man. But if you don't see the future in the marriage you have now, don't tell him. Bang the guy and face the consequences of another marriage collapse.
Your marriage is shaky atm, you have sown the seed of extra marital affairs, only time will help it germinate.
Cheers

MsPweshy:
and if she is a sharp girl she wil deny it or maybe the mum wont even believe

True. It's a very risky stuff. He should just bone n face his own issue. Even me sef go suspect he has hidden stuff for the girl if I were in the mum's position. Abi SS1 chic never start to dey piake?

Don't. Please don't.
You can talk to her. Advise her...and take your mind and eyes off it. It's not entirely your biz but if u must make it your biz, then just talk to her and let her be.
Period
If you carry am put for head like gele, it could end up embarrassing you. Her mum could say u were interested in something, the little girl herself could say u were smooching her something, anything could happen. So Woju ko gboju...

Oh boy, e be like say na on Nairaland 20million of the 21million dey o...I sure.
