Should this be an issue?
This has been in existence all over the world yrs ago including Nigeria.

Hassanmaye:
)
We will not make the same mistake by GOD grace

Hahaaaaa
Majority of us are already towing that route.
Habits formed over multiple generations don't just die.

.

The problem is our parents don't plan for old age.
We have that sense of entitlement that our children must take care of us.

We that are complaining are making the same mistakes.

He looted and ate with his family only. That's his weakness.
He should have learnt from his master Buhari. He spread his looting across his tribe and religion.
Can u se why he is still their God e an in vegetative state?

Or,do they think we don't know Buhari has been AWOL since?

Uzodinma, after your tenure, we will hear about your own looting.

Nigerian men.
Huge disappointment.

When u see them changing corruption here, u will think they are diff from these politicians. Mtcheeew
Same ol',same ol'

Like UK like Japan.
What do people expect?

Family life between man and woman is still the best. It cures loneliness more than a 60%. That's the effect of freedom and liberation.

In UK, instead of the to embrace their fellow human and learn how to tolerate one another, they will choose cat or dog.

A 24 yrs old babe will prefer cat to human. Only seek guys when she want to fk. By 30, she is very depresses with one or two kids( kids that she willingly didn't use protection for and the man is paying child support, maybe two diff men) . Kids will rebel cause of absent of daddy in their house officially, mum is of course using drugs. By 50, she may end up in care home supported by tax payers money and money our politicians store in their various banks.

kellytuns:
igbo culture and the Catholic church doesn't permit that.

I will like to know why u said igbo culture don't permit that.

Igbo has different cultural practices.

The owner of wiz oil married 2 sisters and he is a Catholic.

I agree with this lady.
U build house, you show online.
Buy new car, online
Marry, online
Get belle, online
Born, online.
What manner of inferiority complex is this?

You even have new boyfriend or girlfriend, online must see and hear that.
U break up, u become emotional motivator online.
Mtcheeew.

Land that has been rugalised.

Gwari people started crying too late

Sighs. Like politicians like their followers.

Let's continue defending all of them.

As long as our hands are greased or we have hope that it will be greased when we continue defending them

Most times I really don't blame ignorant parents for thinking they are doing their best using these crude methods on their wards.
The Nigerian society is living in denial of mental health challenges. Families with mental health issues are stigmatized. Our pastors act as health professionals. Govt look the other way.
How many mental health institutions do we have in Nigeria?
Parents are left with little or no choice. Seek out pastors and native drs. Do what they were instructed to do or handle it their own way. Mostly people with mental health problems are tagged witches and wizards and treated so.

Poverty is another contributing factor. You haven't seen money to eat yet, not to talk of flying someone out for psychiatric treatment as Nigeria don't have such hospitals yet.
Yaba left isn't a standard psychiatric hospital and it's supposed to be our number 1 mental health institution.

The Nigeria We live in. Everybody is after national cake.
Good luck to us. We really need that

This life is never fair

bukatyne:


Or translate beautiful native name to English.

Goodluck Jonathan when you are not a white man!

My dear. It's colonisation that caused it with its baggage but in this one, our people are now waking up.

We can now baptize exclusively traditional names without blinking.

bukatyne:


Non-fanatic islamic countries/families is on point.

The calmness which is derived from their absolute belief and submission to Allah's will.

Agreed.
Woke has finished us.

mariahAngel:
Yeah.

Nature is very therapeutic and tranquilizing.

Tell me about it. I naturally seek places like that to work or live.

The landscape around my office is breathtaking. Some of us living close by sometimes trek just to enjoy the serenity.
Fresh air always.

All of them in the north has one goal.
To subdue the north even if fulani colonize them.
Both the Christians and non Christians.

This is the best food thread I have seen here.
Guy, if u are making your money there, don't ever think of relocating.

If one roast corn and pear there, e go make sense.

Naturally hate the city but sometimes we have no choice.
Luckily one can still live in the city but not in the metropolis. Hate the noise

SatanicPriest:
not really africa but nigeria. i have been to ethopia and tanzania and for some reason my normal aggressive behavior was about coming out. the way they looked at me like a mad mad eh, no be person tell me to lock up my gra gra behaviour . naija just makes u aggressive . so its more of a Nigerian thing than an african thing

Thank you.
A Ghanaian outside Ghana behaves better, represents Africa better than a Nigerian.
Or is it those from southern Africa?

We only chest beat when we see other African countries but outside we behave like animals.
Look at this forum e.g, so vile, u can't communicate without cursing and we call that the naija factor. Money overrides every other thing and we answer only to money.
We only pretend to care if its a means to a financial outcome.

crackhaus:
Amazing, isn't it?

You'll see a 10year old son/daughter of first generation Chinese, French, Japanese, Thai, or Indian immigrants, speaking their local dialect so fluently... While their 10yr old Nigerian counterparts can't make a complete sentence in Yoruba, Igbo, or Bini, without reverting to English.

And who is to blame for this?
The same immigrant parents who end up complaining of course. Most have the mentality that anything of Nigerian origin is below par and of no significance, so they end up raising children who have been stripped of all cultural, religious, and indigenous values.

The consequence of the above is that it leaves a vacuum in these children, and makes it easy for them to assimilate what we love to call "western" behaviour.

Gbam!
I don talk tire.
Western culture no dey my house o.
I don't actually like their culture.
When in Nigeria I introduced my kids to Asian culture. Music, drama etc. West have better culture before but cancel culture has striped them of everything with their yeye feminism( the new religion).

Even prefer some Muslim countries not the radical ones.

crackhaus:
The earlier that you lots get to understand that most Nigerians of southern origins, generally have deep-seated issues of inferiority complex, the faster you'll understand that the western system is NOT the problem at all.

The same way Nigerians migrate, live and raise kids in these countries, is the same way Asians and Middle-easterners do.
Yet for some reason, those races still breed kids that generally adhere to their ancestral lifestyles and overall behaviour in terms of attitude and disposition, despite living their entire lives in western societies.

The difference in the respective outcomes above, is all the answer that you seek.


***
And yup, I specifically alluded to Nigerians of southern origins in my first paragraph, on purpose.
There is something about children raised in Islam (the true tenets of Islam) that makes them remain very well-behaved regardless of where they spent their formative years (Africa or the West).




If anyone said this to me, I would ask him to first go to his Asian/Middle-eastern friends, then ask them what they are doing that makes their own kids respectful and organized.

Oil dey your head
I wouldn't have explained this better.

Sometimes I'm in complete shock on how black man behaves out there. And u are so correct, the northerners dont have time with this nonsense.
The inferiority complex is too overwhelming. More than how an average income earner bows to somebody he assumes or see that's better than him. Or is it our ladies?

In Nigeria alone we are forming team foreign accent.
Gosh.
An Indian, Chinese etc is in far away America still cruising his accent while in naija, I want to speak English more than the queen.

Ogaa o.

The audacity
Serves us well.

SmartPolician:
Safety, you say? The same South West that the herders have overrun?

Wether south west or east, it's the same.
They have taken over while u guys are pussy falling over part, tribe and money.
What's the difference.

Okorocha courted and invited fulani herdsman to imo state. He even built settlements for them thinking his wish of becoming president or kingmaker will be met. Used and dumped. They planted uzodinma again to use and dump him and he is so into the role they casted him for. Shameful southern politicians.
No matter how rich, they will always be pawn in the hands of fulani man be it politician or cattle herder.

It's insulting to say will you permit your wife.

If I have the money and want to indulge myself, why not?
Some men can buy that for their wives too.

Some are rich in foreign currencies. One million naira is nothing to an average worker that live where money has value.

banmee:
Lazy cooking today

Be proud of whatever you cook.
Nigerians

BlueRayDick:
I actually have a plastic set of spoon for the nonstick, but I do notice the plastic melt at times when cooking on high heat hence why I used the metal. I guess going forward I should be shopping for the wooden set.

Thanks for the heads up

There are plastics made exclusively for cooking.
I prefer wooden.

It's fking cold and windy everywhere. Sometimes I feel like not getting up

Archaic and outdated tradition.
Others have moved on.

SenecaTheYonger:
They can only do that because they're White and they have soul, therefore they feel shame.

Fulanis can't do that because that don't know what it means to be ashamed. They don't know what it means to take responsibility.

They have no soul. Make no mistake about it. Every USA politician is worst than Buhari 3 times and they do worst.
Wonder why u guys worship these people. It's politics that's played out. Some core deep state politicians in USA are worst than fulani and the upheaval u see all over the world especially middle East then spiralled to Africa are caused by them.

USA, how the mighty has fallen.

Going the way of CCP. Even Nigeria isn't as bad politically as she is now. And they dont know that they are in dictatorship. Nigerians in US and US aspirers dont really care as they have crossed over.

Lexusgs430:
Yes, if you used ielts.......

No, if you used naric or now have naric........

Thanks
