Do you know how much it costs to run an MBA in London? MBA tuition for most schools in London is not less than 30K GBP. Thats about 45 million Naira only in tuition.
Are you saying that because you earn in Naira, spend in Naira, you do not save in Naira? People who relocated to these countries dont do so permanently.
Most Immigrants do not have the best standard of living, they do not relocate to the UK to live like Dangote. Most people relocate to have a better purchasing power back home. Most of the investments in nigeria are owned by Nigerians in Diaspora, does it mean they live the best life wherever they are?
Again, no matter where you live as an immigrant, your investments are in Naira else you promised yourself not to return home

A bank manager out-earns a skyscraper cleaner in the UK, judging from PPP. The comparison is an apple-to-orange comparison. Hence, it is senseless. That is why the original post is false. A bank manager in Nigeria, if he decides to attend school, runs an MBA at London Business School and becomes an investment banker or management consultant. LBS does not admit people who eventually become skyscraper cleaners.

Again, your cleaner spends in pounds, not naira. And should he decide to send remittances instead of improving his income, he is bound to be poorer in the UK. Read about the black tax.

If he earns an average of 23k per annum - 20% tax He has 18k left, transport, accommodation and feeding takes 8k, accommodation is only about 500GBP depending on location and could be shared.
All in all, he should have 10k left as savings annually, and thats 15m, a chance to citizenship and an opportunity to apply for jobs in his field that could shoot up to 50k GBP.
Easier Canada and USA application. The benefits are endless

BigDawsNet:
Means he will be living on free rents, utilities/bills, feeding and transportation

Lol, 10k and you didnt know 10k Pounds is 15million naira?

His average salary as a sky scrapper is 23k (its obviously higher because they take about 12-13GBP per hour. I only removed 20% tax plus other expenses and you'd still be left with 10k plus. You think GBP is Naira's made? 1Pound is almost 1500 now. Sit down there and be earning your 30K while castigating people who took a bold step to better their lifes.

Available9:
You didn't tell me one can pick money on the streets of UK and US

Do you live in the UK? Average salary of sky scrapper cleaner is 23k per annum (This could be higher depending on the company). As an ex bank manager, he has other prospects and an opportunity to land a dream job that could give 49.9k per annum, I dont think any bank manager makes that in Nigeria. His only expenses in UK is accomodation, feeding, transportation and visa renewal which would be done by the home office except health surcharges.
All investments will be made in Naira/ thats what we call foreign remittances, I dont know if Nigerians have stated taking GBP for buying houses or buying lands. Investments in Nigeria are done solely in naira.
If he paid 20% tax and only left with 10k Pounds per annum, he still have 20m saved for the year.
He is on his way to Citizenship in 5 years, easier relocation to USA and Canada. Now tell me what you can achieve as a manager here in your shithole without embezzling money

Gerrard59:
BS!

His standard of living has fallen off. He spends pounds in the UK, not in Nigeria. So why convert pounds to naira as if he is spending in naira?! The tale is false. But let's assume it is remotely true, the living standards of a bank manager is FAR HIGHER than a cleaner in the UK. For proper comparisons, you compare a cleaner in Nigeria to a cleaner in the UK. A bank manager in Nigeria to a bank in the UK.

And he would have an average of 20m per annum after tax, he would be 100m richer in 5 years

Available9:
And what will become of him at 60 years over there ? Hahahahah...he will be thinking of coming back home and by that time his colleagues who retired well as bankers in Nigeria would have left him far behind in life

Assuming he is able to safe 1500 Pounds monthly, he has 2.2m monthly. I dont think any bank manager gets that a month

bolabizzle:
Just got word from a friend about someone who made the move from being a bank manager in Nigeria to working as a skyscraper cleaner in the UK. 😕

Smart move or not?

Whould have ordered for you via twitter.
Youtube should help though!

descarado:
.
Nope. Youtube can do. Thanks.

They still sell, just that its not so common. Do you live anywhere in the southwest?

descarado:
How can I try what I don't know how to cook?

Na werey full this nairaland oooo

u no get chill at all?

NFBI:
Use pen to write 1st for her since you know more than the teacher 🙄

Having 15As does not mean shes the best. The aggregate score matters. She had 91% performance, other kids might also have 15As with 95% performance

Josephamstrong1:
I don’t really understand some schools this days. My baby girl cleared all her subjects with distinction, all As and she was given 3rd position. She has been sobbing uncontrollably since yesterday. Yes, she was promised Christmas gifts and present if she takes first position in class this term.
I think she deserves the 1st position. I want to go to the school on Monday and appeal for result recheck. It can’t be!
I am not taking this o! My baby deserves 1st position with this result.

Thank you.

kingreign:
I fix cars, and I ask what symptoms to narrow down on time spent checking thru all the whole car systems. Then I perform professional diagnosis to pin point the exact fault and part at fault.

This is similar to what occurs in healthcare.

Lmao, I did a mistake at the time, it was the reason why i created this moniker. Its my alt. account

LeeSmart:
I no get problm with ur comment oo but na ur moniker be my main concern lol

Why is symptoms diagnosis necessary?
If scan or serum test will be the first recommendation, there is no point in asking for symptoms. Is there?

kingreign:
You want to tell an expat in his field what to do and how to do things, when it all goes south you'd still blame him.

Nigerians are something else. A scan is also one of the simpler diagnosis too. Just so you know.

You see how stupiddd you are? anyone that is sensible and bold enough to call out your hypocrisy is termed IPOB or Almajiri. I am full Fledge Yoruba Son and I am unapologetic about my stance.
How many Forex did you pump to the economy when naira was 216 in 2015? Yet you and your APC government castigated it. It wasnt on free fall back then. Lazy one like me who is not even there with you tp

favor914:
Lazy Almijiri Naira is free falling you say, how much forex have you made to help your Naira fight back?

Or the lazy ones like yourself, it is the sole responsibility of the Federal Government’s duty to provide foreign exchange to satisfy your insatiable demands in an open market?

Which class are you showing?
Calling people who have contrary opinion with yours "Lazy Youths" isnt abusive. There is no class someone who have zero sense of reasoning beyond tribalism can show me. Naira is free falling and you are here disgracing your generation.

Vision101:
@Error401
You are extremelly stupiddd.
Your daft brain couldnt even tell you an APC governor is blaming Another APC Ex governor while Naira is Free falling, All policy established to stabilize naira worsened it. naira is now exchanging at almost 1300 from about 750 in just 6 months.
If stabilizing economy takes time, should it get worse in 6 months without any foresight but blame games?
You people should use your brain, you have it sitting in your skull for a reason. Im Yoruba btw, so that you can know the kind of Omoale you will call me.


@me
Insulting me and using gutter language for a comment that was not directed to you personally shows your level. Must I rub mud with you? The answer is no. Class must be shown. How? Ignore.

Who own Nairaland again please?

Paystack:
First President of Nigeria and First military ruler of Nigeria is from that tribe you so hate.


Any position Una think of occupying, they occupied first

Vision101:
These are lazy youths. Those that don't know the meaning of micro and macro economics calling Cardoso names.

A messed up monetary economy you want to be stabilized in few months of appointment. Lazy youths

So if Naira wont stabilize in 6 months, should it be getting worse? Its insane that Naira is almost 1300 and rather than work, they are blaming
You can think , use your brain for once

AbuTwins:
Do they think the naira will get stabilised in 6months just like that?

Well, thank God they are not complaining of the terrorism in SE anymore! That Monday sit at home is the new normal from Ekpa Simon Al-Ebonyi!

Even no complaints as regards Nnamdi Kanu Al-Abia!

Always blaming others for their woos!

Its really nice. You can try it sometimes
Its an indigenous Yoruba food.

descarado:
It must be very sweet since its corn.
Will love to see what they combine it with and how it is made.

Yes, after grating

mignone:
Right but d outer part of d corn is usually removed.

As long as everything is pre-destined, I dont see the reason why anyone should be blamed for their actions

AbuTwins:
Sadness and depression is not immaturity or insanity!

Even when sad or depressed you can still act maturely and sane! Allah won't ask you what you did when immature or insane!



Allah wrote the destiny based on His unlimited knowledge of all things! For example, I ate Rice and stew with plantain and beef and offals....in the morning! I couldn't have eaten anything other than that if I didn't visit the person who cooked such sumptuous meal. And I wouldn't have visited if we didn't lose someone close to us that I had to visit to drop the kids.

No one forced me to do anything! I did it willingly!

Destiny is a complex subject; your entire life journey from conception to death!

You should have it in Congo. Back then, my mum buys the normal dried maize in congo and take it to those people who grinds in the market to grate it. Im talking about 2007/08. I dont know how its done now

Love800:
How do they sell it. Is it in derica or custard bucket?
And where can it be purchased?

I ate last in 2018

Fearyourcreator:
Chei you Sabi die ... I ate this last 1995 in the village

Yes, that's how its done, my mum used to prepare it overnight back then when we were young. Its best with firewood or coal pot.
I dont know if the method has changed overtime, but its done that way.

mariahAngel:
10-12 hours? 🥺
That means one has to begin the cooking the day before, and on a coal pot too.

I never said he was, I only said he could have thought of a simpler diagnosis first!, if it turns out negative, then a scan should be recommended.
He never examined, he only thought I needed a scan till I explained my findings for consideration because of my current financial situation back then

Abcruz:
Doctors are not magicians. We do not know it all. He recommended a scan to know better about your clinical state, that doesn't make him incompetent.

No please, its made from sun dried white maize grit
You only need to dry the maize and grit into smaller particles and cooked for 10-12 hours. Its quite easy to make.

mariahAngel:
Do they remove the outer part of the corn (like how you'd do with beans for moi-moi) before cooking it?
I kinda looks smooth and creamy in texture.

Why should Oil and Gas be subtracted? Is it not a natural resources to generate revenue?

BeautifulMind2:
Minus oil and gas Anambra is 3rd largest economy in Nigeria After Lagos and FCT,

where are those Ibadan that were celebrating landmass

Has she done anyhing bad?

ShoeGetSize:
This is what happens when you allow just any riff-raff to enter a prestigious profession.

What were they looking at as she passed through 5 years of university and 1 year of law school?

Because I'm quite sure that this madness didn't happen overnight. Someone, somewhere must have seen the early onset manifestation of the madness while she was in school and just ignored it.

Egbo and Ewa.
Made from overcooked white maize grit.

mariahAngel:
I've come across this dish (the white stuff) a few times, but I don't know what it's called or what it's made from.
What I do know is that it is a dish from the Southwest region of Nigeria.


Do you know this👇🏼dish? Let me know.

In 2023, NO PICTURES? Or Videos? You go explain tire without evidence o

Do you know you can be arrested and prosecuted for this? Mind what you post online okay?

victorclean:
Who can tell me how many ogboni ritualists that are in the picture?. Correct answer will get 100k. Please don't joke
