U respect the right of individuals to decide for themselves what they would do with their lives ....

Then why condemn men that have decided not to spend on a woman , a man that has decided to dump his wife or girlfriend cos he has found some other chic... or a man that has decided to sleep with other women , desoite having a wife ... why condemn them...when he is simply living his life
Also why abusing and condemning a person for deciding to vote APC. After all, it is the right of the individual to determine for themselves what they would do with their own lives

They are doing exactly what they want to do, they want easy money and to them prostitution is easy money.

I had had an undergraduate that started hook-up tell me she doesn’t plan for get a job after university, that office work is stressful lool.

OP dey underestimated the power of laziness, love of money and greed rolled up into one grin grin
Unfortunately, even those who are hardworking hardly have anything to show for it.
So, hardworking is not too encouraging too

Kai! Look at the posts on this thread!

Election season is a very bad season, you see people posting about things that they don't even understand.

Tanzania has made it easier for Nigerians to travel to Tanzania! We no longer need special permission from Tanzania Immigration Service to travel to Tanzania.

Because of this people on this thread are saying that Nigeria has collapsed!

Can you imagine that??

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, HERE IS ANOTHER EXAMPLE.

TANZANIA IS MAKING IT EASIER FOR NIGERIANS TO TRAVEL TO THEIR COUNTRY. WE NO LONGER NEED A REFERRAL FROM THE COMMISSIONER OF THE TANZANIAN IMMIGRATION SERVICE. THIS IS PROBABLY DUE TO DANGOTE'S INVESTMENT IN EAST AFRICA.

BUT ICEBERG3 THINKS THAT IT IS A BAD THING.

EVERYBODY LET US LAUGH AT ICEBERG3

When they say go to good schools you won’t hear, when the govt says they want to increase fees to improve the quality of education you will protest……now see your life?

Removal of referred visa status is an upgrade not a downgrade. It means no further checks or scrutiny required.

To be honest, aside from size, what's the difference between Nigeria and Jamaica? Jamaica is simply a southern Nigeria in the Caribbean.

JESHAL007:
i dont think there was ever a time women got married for love,they do it for security purpose and due to societal pressure.
Because love don't pay bills bro and in marriage, not relationship it is hard work for both parties and lot of bills to pay.
In relationship or casual sex, money may not play too much role and love may but in marriage, money plays a lot of roles.

After another back and forth, calling and typing on screen, I was cleared.
After all these stress coupled with Egypt/Morocco issue, I had nothing to do in the plane from Calgary to Denver than just silently and quietly praying for Nigeria and Africa as a whole for God to just help us.
I am not a fan of prayers nor am I a chronic Christian but I had no choice than just to keep praying for Nigeria to be good.
A strong country economically won’t be passing through high visa bans, border scrutinies and stress like this.
A UK, Canadian, Australian citizen to name a few won’t need an embassy visa, border scrutiny like me.
I don’t blame them sha. It’s well.
I don’t know if election can change anything nor prayers but I just had to just sha pray.

Then came the second phase - US border immigration.

- what do you want to go and do in US? Vacation

Have you been in US before? No.
Please move to this side.
Then I was taken to another room for a secondary assessment.
After so many back and forth, I was allowed to check-in.
Then after announcing the check-in starting to enter the plane, the boarding section checked my ticket and visa once again and claimed my visa has been flagged by immigration that I can’t board the plane - Ohhhhh, not again please, not again

I had little trouble at Calgary airport.
First, I was told all my bookings had gone out of their system because I didn’t check it at my city airport. Skipping it without informing them means I didn’t show up at the airport and missed the flight, therefore the system canceled all flights in the booking totally - ghenghen.

Not again please, not again.
Why is there always issues when I want to travel especially for vacation for God sake.
It was Egypt/Morroco early this year for the African cup of nations tournament where I was turned back at the last minute at the airport and now this again?
After so many back and forth, calling top managers, it was rectified and I was given ticket.

Before I commence, remember: Whatever happens in Miami, stays in Miami.

Okay, let’s start.

I traveled from my province in Canada to US for this trip.

Let’s call my city MT.
I have Canada and US visas before but after booking the trip, I had to book a Bahamas visa for $160/ 220k. It came out in 10 days.
Requirements are police report, 6 months bank statements of at least 1.5m naira, flight in and out of US, hotel booking and cruise booking.
Everything was done online and got it by mail.

Did my cruise booking on booking.com likewise hotel reservations.
Bought Kolet eSIM that was globally - 1gb for 30 days that works globally. Something to use in between airport, hotel and city before getting onboard.

The itinerary is as follow -

Saturday - MT to Calgary by Bus.
I initially booked my flight from MT to Calgary on Sunday, Calgary to Denver and then Denver to Miami but after paying, noticed I only have a short time of 75 mins to move from local airport section of Calgary to international airport, so my booking, pass through immigration and then board the flight.
I knew it wasn’t going to work. That I will miss the flight thereby missing the 2 subsequent flights altogether and missing the trip.
It was an early morning flight at 6am to Calgary so no other earlier options.
I had to forfeit the ticket and used 11 hours luxurious bus to Calgary a day before which was on Saturday.

SpecialAdviser:
Chinese people are very ungrateful. After Igbos helped them to capture African market with thier goods, they are now moving towards the retail chain to challenge Igbo dominance.

Igbos should reply this by going into serious productions. This will be the best way to revenge. Unfortunately, Igbos have no leaders to galvanize this revenge. Or more so Nigeria is not a country to help this
Manufacturing is very very hard in Nigeria terrain due to many factors - bad road, no power or electricity, high loan interest, low manpower quality and output etc.
If it is easier to manufacture, many traders and importers who has made good money from importing would have leveraged on it as another source of income.
It is not easy bro

You are at a loss in terms of dollar.

Average dividend yield is about 5% plus the share price growth rate of 8%. That will give about 13%.

I love for a minimum of 16% which is about the yield on a 10 year FGN bond
This is true.
You raised a good point
Investment › Re: Nigerian Stock Exchange Market Pick Alerts by emmaodet: 4:52pm On Sep 15
Avacap at #4.5 per share looks like a good pick because the it is trading at a discount to the fair value of #5.5 according to my calculation and with the incoming increase in asset under management, though increase in shares outstanding, i think it should get to between #10 to #15 in the short and medium terms.

CMFC at #2 i also very good pick.
Investment › Re: Nigerian Stock Exchange Market Pick Alerts by emmaodet: 4:49pm On Sep 15
emmanuelewumi:
Dangote Cement was listed at N135 in 2010, the stock price is now N1035 after 16 years. During this period they have increased the price of their product by about 300%, production capacity also increased. Unfortunately the compounded annualized growth rate of the stock price from N135 to N1035 is just 8.5%.

When I wrote about the listing price of Dangote Cement on SMN in 2010, I said the stock should not be listed above N80.

Assuming it was listed at N80 it compounded annualized share price growth rate would have been over 17%
but i believe adding the dividends in the past 16 years would have given it a good return.
