Many Nigerians here are lost souls up to no good
That has always been the claim! THE UK IS NOT WHAT IT USE TO BE...bla bla bla

When was anything ever as it use to be?

Even my septuagenarian uncle who Stowaway in the early Sixties told me folks they met there were telling them the UK isn't any longer what it use to be.

Can you imagine

Yea they do, they are all sailors, mostly captains. The least earned $3000 a month working with shell petroleum then. But the glamour of coming to USA almost blinded them before I opened their eyes.

Now his wife have given birth to all his children here. And those kids always come here for medical checkups that cost tax payers a lot. Yet he pays nothing even though he's a rich boy.

That's the best way to take advantage of those who wishes to labor here.
Then this your (caliber of) friends are not whom this thread (OP) is counselling for.

The people in question here are the hand-to-mouth (though able bodied) folks, who would happily go through what you over there think is "hell" mainly because they are simply after "earning a living" while your (the diasporas) own ideology of a career is already obfuscated by the natural trappings of wealth, after living in the west for a while

An hungry man is asking you for a loaf of bread to sustain his soul and you went on ranting about the absence of cheese, jam, butter or coffee for him to gulp it down.

Does that makes sensehuh

Does living abroad automatically make one a charity organisation?
The person you're asking to pay other people's hospital bills, and buy uniforms, has he finished paying all the debts he's in abroad?
No but when you look at it from the economic perspective of FOREIGN EXCHANGE ADVANTAGE , usually a little above a token (from diaspora) would translate to mean MUCH MORE back home.

The second person to comment have already answered your question nicely, but let me add to it, only if Nigerians will be truthful to themselves they will realize that abroad is just mare hype. Let me talk about USA, to me American Dream is just a mirage. I usually tell my friends not to move if they have a good job. Then most of them used to ask me why do I not come back if it's so bad, well I came back now I live in Nigeria. And am happy.
Will your friends talk about Migrating in the first place if they have good jobshuh

sadOp that's not true. You just don't understand. I will never encourage someone above 25 to come to Germany. I mean forget it, you just WON'T cope and will have to settle for less. The language is the big deal here. People think it's very easy to learn a language, they don't even plan and most think Europe/America is a place where the streets are made of gold. Sometimes you have to be EXTREMELY patient, sometimes you will be forced to give up on your dreams etc.

The truth is the younger the better. You don't want to come here and do some jobs you don't want to, just because you can't speak the language and therefore have no other choice
...yet you remain there. You seem well fitted and settled in, which is contrary to your cautions (assertions) you gave.

You even have enough leisure time to do Nairaland

Aba! why now? are you guys so scared of competition from new comers?

You assertions are kind of right except that MOSQUE don't preach RICHES. MIRACLES, POWER and so on.

In Islam, you walk into a mosque, observe your prayer, whether by congregation or privately, and you walk out.

Occasionally (Fridays mandatory) you attend sermons and during some months (depending on your personal schedules) you may attend general preaching where basically the WORDS OF GOD and TEACHINGS OF PROPHET MOHAMMED are the sole highlight and focus.

MOSQUES don't sell RICHES, POWER or MIRACLES. They don't tell you your mother or Aunty or Neighbour or some Six years old orphan is a witch (behind your failure).


They encourage you to accept that NO FORCE in the entire universe has the power or privilege to write, rewrite or alter your destiny from what God originally ordained.

In Islamic teachings and congregation the message is usually about how to live "righteously" in this world with the sole aim of inheriting a place in paradise.

So while it remains inarguable fact that the case of FAKE and MISGUIDED clergies exist within every religion of the world, it is pertinent that we accept that some (religion like Islam) came into existence with clear "rulings and prescriptions" over all aspect of Mankind; and no degree of semantic gymnastic (under whatsoever guise) can be successfully use to justify alterations and/or derailment from the "the accepted and the prohibited"

Alas, Islam is "corrupt proof".

Saddam Hussein case is different.

Operation desert storm (as it was called) was a war fought by ALLIED FORCES against one country that had previously been "economically and militarily" crippled by sanctions for well over a decade.

But here and now we are talking about ONE-ON-ONE, no pretence of fighting terrorism, no excuse of liberating oppressed women.

It will be a battle of superiority not a war of engaging "gullible unsuspecting Islamic militant" for proxy dirty ground work.

Forget about drug dealers. They are not your problem. They don't force the drugs down your system. You should worry more than about those who cart away public fund meant to develop and put the right infrastructure in place.
Really?
How come developed countries with very, very buoyant economy (eg Kuwait, America, Brunei, Britain, Saudi Arabia etc) still consider Drug dealing and Drug abuse a threat?

How come these countries (with all their surplus infrastructures and standard way of living) still have citizens who involved in illicit drug dealing?

Stop making excuses for "hardened" souls.

There are hundreds of thousands of people like him but I'm sure if people like you could provide jobs for people like him, people like him wouldn't be attempting to leave the country.

Nigeria is a country for the rich only. It's a country that doesn't invest in its youths. The result is a hopeless and frustrated generation of young people who'd do anything to survive.

In some countries, you'd only need to show interest and apply for job to be employed. In Nigeria, it's not the same thing. That's why people go on social media or churches to give testimonies of securing jobs that pay peanuts.

We should have a law that severely punishes and discourages individuals who steal or mismanage our common wealth.
...and until that happens we should continue to sympathize and encourage drug dealershuh

This is sad.

He had to choose the Country,with the largest numbers of Muslims in the World to go do drug business.

A people that has a doctrine of punishing anybody by death when caught even with one "KLARO" of WeeWee.

Still,our brothers that everybody is "Jealous of" will not,and cannot stop drug dealing,even if they are killing them like Bushmeat around the world.

Sat near one that was getting deported many years ago,on a flight from France to Nigeria. He told me he spent 14 yrs in Switzerland,and out of that 14,he spent 13 in Prisons for drug related offences.

So i asked him what his plans were when he got to Nigeria?and he replied he plans on returning to Switzerland.

I just gave up hope on him,and told myself these guys never learn.
It's not that they don't learn, ...it's just that they are simply destined as a "hardened" race.

Once met a bloke who spent Five years inside a London prison for drug related offence, and within Three months of his release and deportation he was arrested again in Cairo city for transiting with Drugs. He got convicted and sentenced to Six years which he served.
When I asked him what he plan on doing next he promptly told me he was now an information gold mine. That he was going to invest those Eleven years of incarceration into a grander foreign drug dealing operation.

What a sense, what a race.

freethesheeple:
it might take time but someday Kanu will be free!!!!!!
I agree with you

Though I never liked his style, he started this liberation thing on a wrong foot. Maybe if it was during GEL reign he might have successfully forged some headway,

but things were already fragile and delicate when Kanu tried to rise. The whole nation was looking for a rebirth from years of misrule plaqued mostly by insecurity and poor economy management. Tensions were hyped.

The new government needed to establish a firm, unwavering, Un-Jonathan like kind of assertive authority. Basically "scape goats" were sought to set examples.

Alas, Kanu presented the opportunity with himself.

As an advocate of "One Nigeria" I do not pity him but when I think of all the Ibo indigenes (the Governors, Senators, Legislators, Commissioners, Ambassadors and all the numerous influence wielding vips in the same Ibo geography) that Kanu is suppose to be fighting for, and how they all continue to successfully advance their various personal endeavours as a citizen of Nigeria while Kanu rots in detention, I feel very very bad and sorry for him.

Even the late Nelson Mandela enjoyed psychological support from his kinsmen while locked up for nearly three decades.

As a conclusion I seriously doubt the existence of loyalty within the Ibo race themselves. As recent history has shown the only thing the Ibos owe Kanu is the half hearted ceremonial act of waving of placards.

Yes, maybe he'll do worse. Maybe not.

But provided he is not hiding behind religion. provided he didn't use God's holy name to scam innocent (gullible) people off their money to build the wealth, then he is free to do the "worse" you talk about and without being criticize.

These people are simply reproaching themselves. Wait for God's time, they said 'no, we must collect power from the devil to deceive people that we are God's servants whereas we're His enemies. Then to maintain the power, we will be committing ritualistic sexual sacrifices and nobody would know. And even when the lids get blown, we will vehemently deny it and claim we're being persecuted; or we'll simply ignore it and make believe otherwise'.
But who gets the shame now? You or God? Of course, you!
They never had any intention of doing any God work in the first place. They went into Pastoral mission with master scheme to cheat and defraud right from day one.

It's not as if devil or anything distracted them along the way, they are originally bound for fraud, from day 1.

Nobody here is even trying to analyse the CLAIMS, CASE, or ARREST.

Everybody just feel he is guilty. None of his followers or church members has even bother to defend him online, all simply because it didn't happen on Nigerian soil.

It's like any situation that cannot be successfully pinned or blamed on our government (eg El Rufai, Buhari), we simply accept the global media trial over it.
