Hoodrat:
Lets not misquote Morgan Stanley, he is just trying to be nice and feed us with promises of hope cuz he was paid to do so. But mind you  he said Nigeria economy may Overtake South Africa by 2025 Not Nigeria Economy will Overtake south Africa by 2025 as you can see the obvious difference . So lets put a pause till 2025 to hear the Will,can,could,and would cuz they are been putt on hold for now cuz none of our leader has the gut to open his stinky mouth to say such because the street is fed up so they had to hire a white man to spit the trash. Keep on dreaming fellas.
May I ask you read the heading again and if I may just ask,DO YOU KNOW WHAT MORGAN STANLEY is? just cos you are reffering to them as HE? and a white MAN?

I get waht you mean, but u did not understand my innitial  post  lol ofcos if one buys a land def wanna build a house on it to live(I gues I should have said House) instead of land.Now diviating from our lil argument, I do see some sence in waht teh OP was trying to say  but went round it the wrong way,I do aspire to go back to 9ja at some point(Exit Plan) grin cos the western worl is getting saturated for real.If you check well the for fathers of the UK/US we hear of today wen abroad to achieve the driving force to build thier society of which is thriving today, so I guess we are doing same in our little way.i would like to say that me and some of my mates here in teh Uk,thos amongst my age group are here looking for innitial capital cos thats never available in Nigeria unless you want to accept bribes  and steal public monies.

Is that what you Guys use as a benchmark? The amount of land you have in Nigeria?

It's called priority. I have been in the US since 1986 and don't have a plot of land in Nigeria and I don't need one.

Just saying.

On a serious not anyone earning that much that doesnt have a business or a specifically a house bringing in cash for him in Nigeria or anywhere else for that matter- e get k leg

Even illegal immigrants are able to build houses for themselves just before the boys in blue get to them!
tell tehm Bro, Everybody with his/her own orientation some make it some dont, its like the Gold Rush, I know guys who have been in the UK &Us for more than 20yrs wiv no plot of land in 9ja,might be thier fault might not B.The group of people you get to stay with when you first arrived abroad plays a vital part in your orientation,whatever they do you do.

debosky:
Oddly enough, those people are just wasting their time for the most part - turning off lightbulbs is hardly going to make a dent in your bills when larger consumers like TVs, irons, washing machines and other electricity guzzlers are in use.

If the guy wants to be cheap, he should've turned on a radio and left the lights on instead of the TV grin grin

Get an energy meter - most of the big power companies offer one, and you'll see for yourself that lightbulb wahala is a waste of time, except you're using those fancy spotlights, now those are a big drainer.
you are spot on, the OP seems to think cos someone turns the light off is stingy and saving Energy lol, when you need the light it goes on if you dont it goes off, lol this is the funny side of the storey.
Travel › Re: Turn Off The Light: The Daily Life Struggle Of Nigerians In London by erico2k2(m): 6:21pm On Jun 23, 2011
lol as funny as the poster sounds, its a serious issue which you guys back home do not understand, LONDON IS THE SECOND most expensive  city to live in the world, first is TOKYO, OP  why are you suprised about how Energy is managed in someone elses flat/House? I share  a flat with my Coz since the beginning of thismonth, I have topped my metre up to £40, as per you saying stuff about going to a party and lights where off, do you get lights turned on  at Night clubs? I think its same reason cos people are shy at full lights.In nigeria we are very wastfull in terms of Energy, ie if we where to have 24/7 power, in Nigeria,Energy bills per household would rise to nearly N10000 a month, would you not do same?I for one preffer to watch my TV with lights off  its preferable same as going to the pictures lights are turned off B4  the movie starts so there aint no evidence saying there is long term effect watching TV in this mood,it only creates cinima effect.And plz do not confuse savings with stingyness.

GUys you guys are missing something here, the title of the program was breaking into Britain,
Did they realy show how easy it was to get into Britain?
Did they show how easy it was to get a British Passport?
What the undercover reporter did is an everyday occurance here in the UK,there are corrupt officials as wel on here, its same thing all over the world.
So this is not percular to just Nigeria but then again corruption here in Nigeria has a reason, We are Poor ,under developed and despirate, what reason do the advance worl have to be corrupt

PS,Im not saying waht the 9ja immigration guy did was in any shape or form GOOD, but there you go, in every 12 there must be a JUDAS. grin grin

I like the 10-digit directive by CBN. They should also go ahead to close accounts that are dormant for up to six months.
Would this be a good idea? I think what they do now is the aproprate way, domant account up till 6months get suspended, but this can only happen in Nigeria, cos we have accounts here in The UK we dont even visit for up to 15 months.

Ha I tire for people O! Swift 4G d best Ke? On what parameters?
Considering no technical hitches Glo has no rival. I have downloaded 1Gig in less than 5mins & even in the afternoon my connection hits speeds of about 1.5-2MB/s. Yeah I know people will ask have you used the others & my response is yes. I currently browse with Airtel & MTN @ night 3GB/N2500 options and use Glo 150MB/N1000 option during the daytime. As we say in Benin 'cunny man die, cunny man bury am'. When using glo as well as most capped bandwidth .
Guy are you sure you know what 1 GIG is? a full muvie of110mins has a volume of 800MB which is not up to 1GIG, so you are telling us you downloaded a full movie in less than 5 mins? here in teh UK, no mobile network can download faster than real time when it comes to sound and video,I gto a wired network,Sky Broadband with unlimited downloads its a 10Mb bandwith, I cant even download movies in real time.
