Emeka does not realize his thread has lots of meaning

This emeka boy is one frustrated soul. I'm beginning to think he has started taking hard drugs!..

fernandoc: No one asked u to jump into this thread with ur negative aura and discourage people. Even with ur self acclaimed status u reek of negativity. Guy carry ur rantings to smwhr else and leave the good woman alone. Uninvited advisor.

I tire for the guy oh!...

[quote author=ozo_emeka]At least you argue like a literate.

saying I am "indirectly" doing anything is you making ASSUMPTIONS. And you know what they say about assumptions?

Any SANE objective reasonable person will LOOK at this thread and decipher what needs to be deciphered. This thread is not geared to "hopeless naija boyz/illiterates"

It is geared to those who can REASON and are OBJECTIVELY considering moving to America. It HIGHLIGHTS some of the harsh realities of America and allows the reader to make an HONEST, and INFORMED opinion about moving to America. There are "opportunities" in New Zealand, Canada, Switzerland (the best economy in the world, HQ of World Bank etc) Sweden, France, etc.

It may NOT be a "healthy" option to DIRECTLY move to America (if "making it" is HONESTLY the reason for wanting to move), perhaps "making it" in less harsher countries might EASE the transition to America.

A lot of people want to move to america JUST TO SAY they are in AMERICA - we all see those who claim they have MBAs from schools ranked 650th. Are OAU and Lagos Business school not better than that?[/quote]Now tell me why is everyone against you having at least a point comparing both countries?

What you don't simple get is this. A Nigerian with the intention of migrating will read your thread and get the message you are passing across, He/She will then look at where he/she is coming from(Nigeria) then look at where he/she is heading to(USA) then weighs both and make a decision. Now tell me what does this boil down to? Nothing but COMPARISON. You are passing across a message to them and at the same time comparing both countries.

[quote author=ozo_emeka]One thing I have learned is that Nigerians can really be blocked heads. No wonder the west just uses you all and takes you for a big ride. I see why now. The way you all "SEE THINGS" is amazing.

1. Did I ever "COMPARE" the US to Nigeria? What is the title of this thread?[/quote]Young man, your thread is indirectly comparing the US and NIGERIA. You are asking nairalanders who intend migrating to the US if they really know where they are heading to, so that would leave them with weighing their opportunities in both countries. An average Nigerian would want to stick to migrating anyday anytime. Go take a look at the visa lottery thread/ Study Thread. If you're having a difficult time in the US then get on the next flight to Nigeria.

You obviously don't know what graduates face in Nigeria. After spending years of studying hard coupled with strikes and all, you end up in the labor market for years searching for jobs....

You are still 20 years, when you're all grown and face the challenges of life rather than checking google then you'll know what grown men are talking about

Originalsly: Comparing USA to Nigeria...is that the topic? If it were the topic I would agree with you....but that is not the topic. You guys tire me.

Use your initiatives, The topic boils down to comparing surviving in both countries

Originalsly: Moderator...why is this thread not on front page? Is it not topics like this that bring traffic to the site?

We have the best moderator I've noticed so far on Nairaland and trust me he did a great job by not putting this on the front page.. Common who will be so stupid to put a topic like this on the front page? YOU CANT COMPARE THE USA WITH NIGERIA. And that's why the thread never hit the front page!!!

Guys cut it!... We don't need all the insults.. We all know the US can't be compared to Nigeria. It'll be dumb to put both on a scale.... My on view is if God has destined you to make it big, even if you migrate to a troubled country such as Afghanistan, you surely will make it big... I understand the OP is trying to say US has its own defects too, but we all know and everyone knows you can't compare Nigeria to the US

We don hear... E don do... Haba

Ms Nas: E no good oo. No dey take the guy laugh na. Only that the free part is

No be you start am?

Anyone who isn't ready to stick to the rules deserve a ban.... IDK about any about any one, but I've noticed the teenagers here keep breaking the rules.

Ms Nas: I'm sorry if this is rude, no pun intended. But this post made me

Me too!

500? For what?

Kids!!!

Ok

First time I got to the US I was shocked to know beggars exist in the US too. Most people in Nigeria believe every part of the US is clean and developed. They believe every american is living large. I wouldn't blame them, its what they watch on tv. I'm not discouraging anyone from traveling abroad neither am I encouraging it. My own advice is to always have a plan and know what you want in life.

My brother played the US visa lottery and when the result was out he won but before the result came out he had started a business which had started booming. He didn't go for the lottery win and today he doing very very well in Nigeria.

Not everyone is opportuned to make it in Nigeria but they have higher chances of making it in the US than in Nigeria. 7 out of 10 who travel to the US always make it. Come to think of it, why was US visa lottery ever introduced? If it isn't a bed of roses in the US why would America come up with "US Visa Lottery" ?

Interesting!!! Making it in life isn't about where you are. After all we have lots of Nigerians who have never stepped out of Nigeria and live like kings.... My advise is think before you leap. Not everyone who travels out of Nigeria come back better off... But I'll say from my own experience that Nigerians are good hustlers and can survive pretty well overseas.

Idk about any of you but I am impressed Kenya even has a mall.

I asked a question.. Who moderates this thread?

Who is moderating this thread?. Why are my posts hidden?

onegig: Can the ladies posting on this thread tone it down and not post with sentiments and lack of understanding.

Heartfelt condolences to the people of kenya.

We should remember we only have good and bad/evil people and nothing else. Same way some retard wielding guns killed twelve people in a navy yard in the US earlier this week.. Violence is now the order of the day around the world.

May God see the hostages held in this horrible situation out safely and may the souls of the dead rest in perfect peace.

oh! And was the killing in the US associated to religion?

Oh! There goes the religion of peace again!. Very peaceful religion!

Naija mentality

What about Windows phone?

Is it going to be available on windows phone?
