Looks like a nice place to have a break from the Lagos hustle

Godson201333: These are our problems,When you people spend just some days at a particular place you come back praising them neglecting your father land.

Who told you Togolese are friendly?whre are the girls?Do you know how many Nigerians that are rotting in their jail right now for just paper works?

so people aren't friendly because they enforce their immigration laws?

there are many people rotting in Nigerian jails also because they've broken the law and if nigeria doesnt detain immigration offenders then thats ouR problem

2-0 1st match

2-0 2nd match

being negative?

these corpers/ unemployed youths are effectively being sent to do police/military work! no training, no weapons no guidelines--just dungarees
How are you so sure they wont be hassling local motorist and traders?

thought there was no government in borno--- emergency rule uh?

^^ exactly

Deor03 explanation was better than that selfish punk who wrOte in the Punch newspaper

knew all along the situation could only have been as a result of the worst form of customer service

bump

helloooo

probably one of the problem with african tourism, the logistics.... you can easily arrange a tour of europe from your laptop

you can start from West Africa, atleats you wont have problem with visa and coach from Lagos to all the way now

or try Eastern Africa

In fact dont use GUM TREE at all for accommodation...lol too many imposters on there

PurpleHouse: All these aren't the handy work of South Africans! The South Whiters Built all these!

i keep reading things like these, is this a way to console ourselves in nigeria?

so neat, i doubt Banana Island and abuja is this neat

there must be some sand-sand somewhere near the pavement sha!! [thats if there's pavement]

justwise: -He does not need any English language test.

-Relocating before applying for him is the right decision because you need to prove that you have an accommodation suitable for family for a child at his age.

-No TB test is needed, if one is needed it will be carried out at the POE.

-You need to prove that he is actually your son (birth certificate etc)

- With permanent resident paper or British passport you will pay as home student.

@gemini
I think she'll need to have lived in the UK for 3 years prior ... to qualify as a home student- not sure if thats still applicable

Garki Hospital (Area 3)
This used to be the popular Garki General Hospital until it was privatized by the Federal Government

Abomination

and this made front page??


the dude is holding a phone and smiling like a don

i bet it's a nairalander

thanks for understanding Vic

justwise: That is the last place i will advice anybody to buy laptop or phone, any good laptop or phone you buy too cheap from them is most likely a stolen or damaged then patched up one, those group of pple are the most fraudulent you can ever come across, they are the equivalent of Nigerian 419ners/yahoo yahoos.

Ebay is the best place to buy such thing, register with ebay and Paypal, its safer and cheaper.

for real, you dont wanna buy phones and laptops from these pakistani traders- most of them import phones from asia, so basically you are getting the phone quite alright but they are 'asia grade' or have been repaired and repackaged- chances are you wont be getting your money back if anything goes wrong, they will try to fix the phone at most

Carphone warehouse do good deals and you have guarantee covering your products, you can take the phone in if you're not happy with it and they also offer very cheap inurance

Ebay is very good for used laptops, but make sure the seller is not new and have very good ratings
I think PC world also sell refurbised laptop

all in all you need a reputable place with customer service and guarantee- somewhere you know tey have a reputation to protect!

great, what's the experience like, from where to where ?

good for the community

but why isnt the road closed off , the road leading to the bridge? no barriers no pavement

CECC just taking over, where are the nigerian companies?

Xxpress: back to the main topic, the nigerian locomotives are not dat worst.

Have you been one the trains lately?

in most cases you can use you NUS card as a form of I.D [ i think most uni cards are integrated with NUS logo nowadays]

you can use your NUS card to get discouts 10-20% in most shops!

hitman2911: How are u sure he can speak pidgin. This is a guy who possibly has never been to Nigeria or even interact with the Nigerian bred guys leaving in UK.
Chiwetel is a. Briton with Nigerian parentage.

he got the scar on his head when he visited Nigeria as a child with his dad in a car accident

he's previous played nigerian immigrant in a film some years ago,

_{you cant live in the UK without interacting with Nigerians-except you live in cornwall}

[quote author=shoot@sight]Good morning nairalanders ...
I have noticed most people in Nigeria shy away from diesel engined automobiles when making a purchase decision.One prime complaint u'll hear is that diesel engines αяє '' problematic'' , ''oga diesel engine dey spoil quick quick and Ɛ no dey last''.

Infact I had a first hand experience at a filling station @ gbagada estate. A man pulls over with an Audi Q7 for gas/diesel and the lady while filling up queries him why he would buy the diesel version of such a luxurious automobile. As if that's not enough she chips in an ''advice'' that he should trade it for a petrol version if he wants †̥σ enjoy Τђε ride.

I was surprised †̥σ say the least because I know diesel engines †̥σ b easy on gas consumption , and αяє even naturally more torquey than their petrol counterparts. Or perhaps its ∂ assumption diesel engines αяє noisy? Which has almost been eliminated in newer car versions.

So Let's have ur opinion ![/quote]havent you heard? Nigerians are experts on everything!!!


I think most car users are city drivers
and our dear mechanics

ogb5: What Ribadu should have done to be effective was to have pushed through legislature that would have ensured that those who are mandated within the system check the executives were forced to perform their roles. And were punished when they failed to provide the necessary checks and balances.

The result is that today the houses of assembly still act as rubber stamp for the govs, approving anything sent to them by the governors.

The heads of civil service still allow contracts that did not pass through due processes to be awarded by the executives and used to syphon money

pushed through legislature in this same nigeria?

with this house of assembly?

Orikinla: Thank you.
Many people don't know that Dede is a seasoned actor.[b][/b]
Dede Mabiaku played a major role in Render To Caesar, 2013, "Captain Yusuf" in Jeta Amata's Black November, 2012, and "King Oche" in Inale.

there must be a reason many people don't know 'a seasoned' actor

you have basically listed the only 3 films this seasoned actor have on IMDb and even on those he's not listed as the top billed actor

tut tut whoever considered him for the main role definitely started off on the wrong foot, at most he can be used as a consultant

Orinkinla, I believe you're the nigeria film experts on Nairaland

please help us list the films 'Award winning' Actor Dede Mabiaku has featured in and perhaps the Film and award he won some years ago

hes not an american...

whats the nigerian swag? whats the nigerian accent that people cant do sef?

We are not exactly from mars!!!

bloody hell!!

prof800: ...which won him the oscars right.?
...and De Niro also gained alotof pounds to play "Al Capone".
-----
But that's not the question.
The question is why do we need an 'hollywoodian' to play something that an 'unknown' person on the street can kill.?
"go to Felabration or to The Shrine and see many felamanias"
...Look what happened to HOAYS at The TIFF.

perhaps because he's a professional, he's of african/nigerian descent, he's played several roles including well and plus he's marketable

if there are several 'felas' in the shrine and professional pidgin speakers....why have we waited so long for outsiders to make a film about Fela?
Why arent the Big Nigerian producers taking a shot? Why have we waited so long for outsiders to back the film then now dictate who we want to play the role?
