Some may not even want to come back - they will rather continue with their hustle there. Some staff are staying out of work especially in factories and ports, migrants are the ones filling up the positions temporary to keep the economy moving.

A typical Nigerian loading goods in container in Wuhan region wouldn't even wanna leave the job and come back home.

Nigerians, always behaving and representing well when with Oyibos. Some will even be speaking and forming with fake accents.

But once they step into Nigeria, they become something else altogether. Is there anything wrong with the geographical entity called Nigeria?

Your contact and address

When Geologists and historians writes and say, one million years ago, my people, do you know what one thousand years looks like? Mehn, it has been long that this world started.

It has not been long since Christ came as historians usually says he came about 2000 years ago.

This means that life and human have been existing millions of years before the coming of Christ. Some believed that animals metamorphosed into human. Honestly, the story of life and evolution is too complicated to understand.

The stories of cave men and Eskimos are always interesting to read

Kai, please nobody should ever refer to Nigeria as a Zoo. From all indication, Zoo seems more serene and better organised than this jungle.

Savage kingdom should be the right word. Look at the faces of those that burnt the man.

People of this country looks and behaves crudely in everything. I am so sad right now. Imagine the fate that awaits the six children of these two people that died.

I pity them and the rough road ahead in this un forgiven country.

My Lord Bishop, I support your statement fully. Mbaka is seriously spoiling the image of the Church.

I wished that Cardinal Okogie was the Bishop of Enugu Diocese. He would have ex-communicated the man sharply.

I don't know why Catholic Bishops in the East are docile when compared to West and North. If you are a Catholic priest in those area, do any how, and see any how.

Talk of Adewale Martins, Okogie, Mathew Hassan Kukah, Onaiyekan and co.

The Bishops in the East are always soft with priests that are misbehaving

helinues:
CBN governor - SE
Deputy CBN governor - SE

Yet nobody is shouting marginalization

Ignorance!!! He just replaced Mr Nnana from South East. The appointment was based on the constitutional requirements of representation of regions in CBN.

All regions should have someone from the region as a deputy governor of CB N but the president can appoint the governor from any region.

When in UK, EU and US, they are treated with respect and accorded special treatment as belonging to minority group of LGBT.

One even got admitted to the prestigious Brown University, an Ivy University on account of being a lesbian.

Nostalgic feeling. Going to Church in my Dad's 504, he played the songs all the time.

All those cassette hawker in the 90's liked playing their music.

Then during burials. Very common in the East.

This immigration overseas, especially to Canada by Nigerians has claimed a lot of professionals.

At least, I could count about 19 of my former colleagues. Some of us that are still in this " jungle" are seen as insane.

A friend asked my wife when she went to put to bed in US what we are still doing in Nigeria.

The hopelessness in this country is driving a lot out of this country, even the professionals that are doing very well still forms the highest chunk of people leaving.

Some of these professionals do not believe that their children would be lucky to have a decent job and living as they did.

Lastly, the insecurity of lives tops the list on most people"s mind. When you are not sure of your life when you leave your homes is a compelling ground to seek safety overseas

See what the death of one man has caused. I didn't support US killing the Iranian General but the burial of the General and other aftermath effect has caused the death of more than 250 Iranians.

How much does it cost to verify NIN on the website.?

I want to start the ptdf application tomorrow.

I think, N500 paid through "verify me" according my niece. I don't have all the information.

When I got PTDF scholarship in 2009, there wasn't anything like NIN verification.

The bottled leopard made me not to sleep well while in boarding school in early 90's. 1991 precisely.

I was always worried about the story after we read it in our literature class in my JSS

Government agencies and poor coordination. NIN is using some agencies to collect money from Nigerians. They have penetrated PTDF, Immigration, JAMB, WAEC, very soon na NEPA, yet the process of getting the so called NIN is too cumbersome.

My niece has been on this NIN for his PTDF application but no success yet.

$4.9 billion dollars in 2019, even if he paid a 1% tax(which is impossible) that is $49million dollars =#17.64 BILLION naira from only one man, Oga Tunde Fowler has questions to answer...........

I can bet you that I pay more taxes than some of these Nigerian millionaires and billionaires. Getting them to pay their fair share of tax is always a problem. That's why the poor are not feeling the impact of these so called millionaires and billionaires.

In advanced countries, taxes from all these millionaires are used to support the poor and provide public goods.

It is easy to loose faith in God in Nigeria because of the enormity of the problems and challenges that we face and most of them remain unresolved even after our fasting and prayer.

Sometimes, it could be difficult to believe God in the midst of huge unemployment, unsafe road, occultic people and other man - made challenges that good governance should ordinarily solve without any recourse to God or spiritual intervention.

During my student's days in Scotland more than 10years ago, I had so much trust in God. I wasn't asking for many things as what I would ordinarily asked have been provided by the government.

It is very comforting and fulfilling being a good Christian and believing so much in God in a developed world than in Nigeria where the worries of life could make you to loose faith and compromise big time.

My uncle and my father. Two brothers that loved themselves so much. Did everything together that it trickled to us their children and wives.

Their bond and unity was out of this world.

My father bought the 504 Peugeot from PAN in kaduna and my Uncle got the Beetle from Volkswagen in Lagos, all mint, the same day.

Christmas of that year was the bomb as all eyes were on our families.

Rest in peace uncle. Just as volkswagen have rested your beloved bettle, God have also rested your soul.

However, sadly, the United family you laboured to build and sustain is fast crumbling because of enmity and outside influence. In Chinua Achebe's voice, an enemy has entered and used a sharp knife to cut off the rope of love and brotherhood that joined us together.

One thing I have noticed among all these cities is the aesthetics appeal of the buildings, environment and landscaping. These are all lacking in Nigeria.

Our architects and builders are not creative at all. The same building designs without consideration for aesthetics.

Secondly, the chaotic, crude and overcrowded nature of Nigeria towns makes our environment unappealing for tourists.

We are too disorganised in this country with absolute indiscipline in all spheres of life.

That's not my problems but how do I migrate to Canada

Canada is too boring o. You better remain here

Beremx:
Someone told me he was asked by a Hausa trader who recently relocated to Onitsha how the federal government managed to build high-rise buildings at Onitsha. The Igbo man simply told him all residential high-rise buildings are privately owned. Federal Government does not own anyone.

The Hausa man was simply amazed!

Igbo Amaka. A naghi m eto onu!!

Unnecessary chest beating. People that always chest - beat have inferiority complex. Why use Hausa man in your narrative?

And some are praising and happy that their Governor boarded first class.... we are just too myopic in this country. How does this improves the lives of Zamfara people?

Let them suffer it. They saw Dr. Alex Otti with his master plan for transformation of Abia State and still decided to return Ikepazu.

Elections has consequence. Let them face the consequences.

Let's tell our selves the truth. The country is simply not suited for tourists. Poor infrastructure and lack of good transportation network coupled with the high level poverty that has made majority of its citizen to look crude, uncivilised in behaviour and chaotic environment with poor aesthetic and unwelcoming disorganised environment.

As someone earlier pointed out, the country is just too dangerous to be moving from one state to another.

OP, next time, localise this tourist attractions per state.

I hope they are tax compliant.

Gate men and stupid answers.

So the lady told him she was going to buy sanitary pad in a store across the church? "Ladies will never do.

The way guys hardly tells someone that he is going to buy condom is the same ladies hardly tells anyone that she is going to buy pad.

Zebrudayya Okoroigwe Nwobodo alias 4:30

May be Jaguar next. Indomie generation won't know about these two.

NTA Enugu Channel 8, una well done o

Chest - beating have already started. I thought it was donated to the school.

After five years now, some idiotic students will be defecating on the floor of the toilet and the whole surrounding will be littered with dirts thrown from the room Window.

We lack decency and decorum in this part of the world.

See what Peter Obi and his Goodluck Jonathan could not do. I just don't understand Igbo's likeness for Jonathan. The man didn't do anything tangible in the East. Peter Obi and the so called PDP leaders in the East could not get the FG to do anything tangible and they will be busy blind - following and supporting Jonathan.

I am not a Buhari supporter but when you look at the what the FG has done so far in the East, it is far more than what the so called " Our Man" Jonathan did during his entire tenure, if he did anything anyway.

Imagine...our problem is not just no enough jobs .

We should start by reducing the number of kids we born , things were not this bad in my dad's time when the population was small and manageable .

My dad graduated with a 2nd class lower and he already had more than 7 jobs begging for him months to his Nysc pop... Even with ones 1st class it's not easy anymore

Honestly, I don't know why we don't have policy and national plan on population control. Population control is taken seriously in advanced societies just to ensure equitable distribution of resources. Now that their population is declining and economy booming, they are begging people to have more kids.

Nigeria should know that unchecked population have serious consequences like what we are seeing. Go to IDP camp and see people breeding malnourished children.

I have three kids and my mum told me that she was looking forward to additional two. The kind eye wey I look am.

They used to have six and seven in their time and expect it to be same now.

Over population is not good for Nigeria at this time.

The level of poverty and ignorance in this country is insane. Politicians are capitalizing on the poverty they imposed on the masses to reap them off.

Mental emancipation remains the best form of freedom.

I like this - can you use it as an outdoor interlocking tiles? I viewed the site and liked the aesthetics - share your contact for further discussion- You should also post pictures of its usage in Nigerian homes.

As some one asked, is it different from the usual concrete interlocking tiles for exterior and road?

I don't know why this is common with keke drivers, messengers, drivers, office assistants and lower class people.

You see a struggling driver, sponsoring one girl in school with his hard earned money.

I had one office assistant then when I was still in the investment banking sector. This guy was practically spending his salary on one chic working as a cleaner in another bank.

The chic was busy sleeping with bankers where she worked. She was later absorbed as a contract staff and bid bye bye to the office assistance guy in my former office.

The guy went into depression straight. His performance dropped and almost got the boot as his work required effectiveness and agility.

Guys, please learn and focus your energy towards developing your capability and capacity to grow and succeed in life than focusing on chics.
