There is only one education, not "Western" education as people in the Muslim part of Northern Nigeria have become used to calling it. All the others are indoctrination. I don't know which verse in their religious book will teach you how to wire a house or how to read about space. Although I hear they said they split the moon into two and some prophet rode a horse in the sky. Indoctrination teaches you how to believe any trash you're told and education teaches you how to do real things. The difference is practical. The nations with proper education provided the modern world we are all enjoying today; those with indoctrination only are the ones blaming their abject failure on those who are progressing

Nigeria -- a nation of middlemen whose only effect is to make things more expensive for the end buyer, estate agents, car sales agents, land purchase agents, now petrol selling agents. A middle man is an unproductive person who wants to feed off both producer and consumer

UK na country again? The place that savages from Third World countries have destroyed. Waste of money for any mumu who tries

tuoyo9729:
It's sold but I have a note 20 ultra..send me a message on WhatsApp I am interested in ur 6pro

I only sell my phones for money. 6 pro is 250k last because of screen imperfection (ink and flicker at low low brightness). The ink has become a little bigger than in that picture. Otherwise like new. I just needed the screen of the Note 10+ to replace mine. It is presently being replaced by S20+ for temporary use.

Buy a tablet. Peripherals like mouse and keyboard can be added. I really don't know why people still use laptops. My laptops have developed issues from lack of use/no sales. How will I use them when I can just lay on my bed and carry a phone with a processor faster than the laptops I have and memory 2x the one in the laptop; and I can easily get 6 or more hours nonstop using it and can recharge back in one hour. I really want to sell off the tablets and laptops I bought so I can be free from their stress

tuoyo9729:
Cracked front and back..no ink or line ..working perfectly. 12/256..dual sim variant..cal or WhatsApp.080.....5....2...5...5....323....4......price..160k... swap and cash also acceptable

I'm interested. What phones do you want to swap with? I have many lower phones and pixel 6 Pro with imperfect screen.

I broke my screen of this Note 10+ with many pics and info in there and fingerprint lock that I can't see to unlock. I sell phones, so it's just one of the three I used permanently. Been redundant for a few months now

In 2024! Lol. Kai, Nigeria. So we want to resurrect Buhari 1984 system.

People will be angry about what I said because of their level, but the people running the country? With all their never ending paper they gave them after wasting their time in all manner of silly institutions? I thought at the very least they would know juuuuust a little better. But no -- they're all brutes together.

Nigeria is a joke

I also repeat: in sufficient numbers Nigerians will remake their failed country in any country they are allowed to stay in. The only difference with Islamists is that one is religious, the other is not. They will both destroy anywhere they're allowed in in sufficient numbers.

I repeat: these clowns have no clue how nations develop or what constitute development. Just like their white elephant projects, they themselves are in government as the ultimate ego trip in Nigeria. Nigerians are the reason their country is a failed state. They are the ones who use natural selection to weed out the type of people who would help their society, and promote people like themselves -- from the earliest years. I KNOW!

This Amazon Fire 5th generation Tablet has been on display here before. Now I want to clear it out for ₦20,000.

Nigeria is still a savage society of brutes. No amount of PhD will change that upbringing. The vast majority of Nigerians are either born in these bush towns and villages in these godforsaken states in the hinterland, or are first generation born in proper parts of Lagos, Abuja and maybe Port Harcourt and the few civilised patches in the North.

I know what I'm talking about. It is when I started interacting as an adult with all these people that I understood my own upbringing placed me in a tiny minority as far as the whole Nigeria goes.

All of una wey neva receive biro from America or Europe are the ones blowing hot and cold here.

After you shakara finish, show document till daikindonkon (aka thy kingdom come), receiver will still pay that moni. Unless he uses man-know-man to reduce it (if possible).

Dem neva even hint him of NDLEA o. They will still do their own.

I drag this matter 2 months, even the residency status of sender in America they ask and we provided. I was blowing hot and cold, attacking here and from USA. I use my social warrior status on twitter to fight the "injustice". All na story. Send it back? Ok, you will kukuma lose the whole thing in the labyrinth of Nigerian bureaucracy.

So, if you have no experience, keep your opinion to yourself. One musician said in Yoruba "the people wey do pass you plenty gaan; wan yapa oo, aiye po gan". Lol.

Abeg, please remember that anything you dey buy from abroad, people have gone through the stress to bring same in to sell in Nigeria. Patronize local and save everybody from ruin.

Meanwhile, OP go pay that moni o

FreeStuffsNG:

Eeyah.....

There's an e-evaluation and e-invoicing platform that the CBN introduced to the customs and it uses a kind of universal pricing for the goods. Most times, people who br8ng in goods under-invoice to reduce customs rates to pay while those who export over-invoice so that they can attract export incentives. The e-evaluation and e-invoicing was introduced to curb this and was introduced during the Emefiele-led CBN era.
The best thing to do now is to pay or else your goods will not be released to you. If you go and settle the wrong guys you may end up with double jeopardy niyen.

It's always better to have an idea of the costs of these goods ahead before sending them because a bargain sale may not be the same as the price on the e-evaluation and e-invoicing platform.

And people are here in Nigeria, their businesses of selling these same items are failing because of no patronage. What do you think they would think of this person?

The ones I also suffered customs/ndlea/courier wahala from in 2022, most of them are still unsold.

Lol. Another rat don enter their trap. My dya, you will pay o. Check nairaland for those of us that have come before you. I think the last one was a few months ago. Mine was 2 years ago. The next one is loading right now as we speak. They will arrive on nairaland in a few months to make their own complaints.

Na so life be…

6 pages on, I've learnt very little from this thread. Hopefully some of the few sensible people left in this country who have experience will chime in. Honourable mention to 360Command and one or two others.

Our people have no clue how they really are that other nations see and despise us as a result. It's all "jealously" that we're "successful". If you're all so successful, how come you're all a worldwide nuisance that can't stay in your country and make it a little better?

Don't forget there are statistics that tell how the people of a country measure up against others, and it's not the country's GDP

emmyluizzz:


lets hear you out
what will he invest in

It is people who have never had the money to invest that always tell people to invest in this Nigeria. The country favours salary earners by default. I'm presently confused how to free myself from "investment" in this country of well well over that 4m. The only way out is to make the business international and that's why I'm here.

As someone has said, no one likes Nigerians, but not for the so-called jealousy he espoused, but by the Nigerian attitude I always point out and for which I am hated

As I've tried to tell nairaland members, there are no saints in this country. The politicians only get the bad rap.

When I was trying to be involved in doing things for this country, I met him Utomi. He was a pleasant man, but I was not there to see who was nice to me. I ultimately concluded, along with all the others in the who-know-whos in Nigeria that its all hustling. No one is in there for the betterment of Nigeria and the reputation of the black man in the world. I withdrew, to come on nairaland here to be taking insults from the nondescript ordinary people, rather than join in on the rape of Nigeria under false pretenses.

This is why I listen to politicians also, even though they are crooks. Almost all Nigerians are potential crooks if given the chance, so why should I believe the one that presents themselves as saints against those who have accepted the toga of being crooks? They're far more honest.

Nigeria is a joke. Who no go no know

francisisking:
Dey play
Even your battery will swell and your casing will crack, if care is not taken. And the value will further diminish.
You think

Wong guy to tell. I'm a seller. I have at least 10 Samsung phones your people want for next to free, just like on this thread; so I'm keeping them forever if necessary. At least one is over 3 years old.

A battery swells for who no know road. Been there too though, but I'm not one of them again. My batteries can't swell.

People, check out my own thread for phones and tablets (in case una think say I dey lie)https://www.nairaland.com/7255494/american-phones-tablets-sale-varying/5#131213710

The day your charging port will spoil

The day your motherboard will kaput

That is the day you will know that phone is not only about perfect display.

Seller, keep ya tin or find someone to disassemble the thing for you and sell parts one-by-one. You might one day need one of the parts or you will easily sell one of the parts for the 10k and still have the rest.

10k! Kai, Nigeria. 10k = $6.30 which is not enough for transport for one day over there

Keeping up with the Joneses don put this wretched fool into problem.

That status he wants to enhance, even with no shit in his yansh, don backfire.

You think a wealthy man will be making a fool of himself on the street because he lost a phone?

I can bet you most wealthy people don't carry the latest phones unless they are specifically technophiles -- not all these brutes who will only make calls, take pictures in auto mode, and play games on them. The objective remains the *status*

It's all a fight for resources. That is what politics in Nigeria is all about. That's why its a do-or-die affair. Nobody cares about anything in this failed state

As I've often said, these people have no clue how nations make progress. They're just there because that's where the "big boys" are supposed to be on Nigeria -- in furtherance of their unique Nigerian penchant for megalomania. Having gotten in, they have to look for something to do, and so they come about all the farce because they're course in solving the actual problems their society faces

LagosPrince:
The veterans that killed innocent children and pregnant women in the civil war . May their needs never be met .

I read that some of this old fools still live in their family houses built sometimes around 1920's and 1930's . I thought after killing children and pregnant women in the civil war, they've automatically made it in life hmm

Na God go punish all of una and the people that enlisted you fools in that war

My mom lost her elder brother in that war. He was coming from school on that day and they forced him to join the south east soldiers to defend the Igbo land from the invasion of this old idiots begging for pension and that was the end of him, he never came back from the war.. so I was told.

About 2 million Igbo children lost their lives in the hands of this old fools .

We've forgiven them, but we will never forget.

My MOM is Igbo and my DAD is Yoruba. To those of you calling me out to question which tribe that I belong.

I have not forgiven you Igbo for destroying Nigeria. To this day Nigeria has not recovered from what you did to her. Igbo complaining about 100million children dead (I helped you inflate it so that you can be happy) is exactly tht same happening right now of Hamas crying that 40,000 children have died in the war with Israel. Only a dumb fool will buy that. If you want to kill all your children by throwing them under a moving vehicle, it's your choice. It is not the vehicle's responsibility for the children's death; it is YOURS!

It is REMARKABLE that even after 50 years you will still not find anyone of Igbo extraction who has reflected upon what they did to Nigeria and be quiet; they're still playing victim. In every other way I like Igbo people far far more than these people in the West, but on this point, I can't stand them: Chimamanda, Achebe, all of them are pathetic on this matter

One chance…

thesicilian:
The one they've been hiking tariff in secret is not enough. You'll buy recharge of 1000 naira and before you call for few minutes it's all gone.

You're a typical SELFISH, mean-spirited Nigerian. For the others: I wonder how these telecoms companies have been surviving all these years with almost no increase in rates when in only one year most items in the market have increased 3x and dollar over 2 times. They are the only industry that actually provide 24/7 services in this country. This is how the Nigerian government kills anyone daring enough to invest in this failed state.

I have been preparing for this eventuality for months now

My former area. Thank God I survived 3 years crossing that dangerous expressway.

Ibadan always in nairaland news when it's nowhere to be found among top Nigerian cities. Really low per capita economic activities. I'm almost bankrupt here because of no market for my electronics.

FOLYKAZE:
What is all these yap about dollar? Are we in a dollar economy? Do we earn or spend dollar in this country? Many who have not earned a dollar or hold $100 in their entire life is all yapping hurling insult on Tinubu.

As for the Op, you have ₦350,000 stashed away in your account. This implies you likely own more than half a million liquidated asset and value more than million naira. That whole lot is earned on this land and only on this land. And I need to ask you... How many folks in USA have $200 saved in their account like you that have the equivalent? According to GOBankingRates, below 35% of total Americans have $100 saved in their deposit bank and that does not cover their monthly bills.

So, Nigerians are having it better than Americans? I am sorry for you. You don't deserve any explanation. Clearly there's still room for you to fall down further

We're seriously waiting for first Nigerian man to teach his country people how to make national progress.

Lunatic nation!
