On Tuesday while Speaking at the United Nation Assembly President Macron Called for a New World Order ..

In the month of September 2020 alone, Isreal signed 2 Peace treaties with 2 different nations. With about 5 other nations ready to follow.
It took about 26 yrs to sign the last two that was signed.

my advice is to do a Google search of a DHL office around you and walk in to ask them. It's your country nobody go chase you, sending things through unverified sources you are connected to on phone will only end in tears.
Thank you bro

Travel / Re: Why Do Your Friends Ignore You When They Finally Travel Out Of The Country? by frainc(m): 2:41pm On Sep 04, 2020
optimusprime2:


Hey I couldn't just ignore this post...
At first I wanted to be blunt and straight out savage in my response, but it ocured to me that your post was honest and sincere meaning you are not aware of certain realities that exist outside of Nigeria, especially outside African territory, so I decided to be very detailed in breaking down certain things for your understanding ...

1. Adjustment: moving to US means moving to a new way of life, new setting, system, culture, environment, norms and practices etc now these aforementioned factors differ starkly from what one is accustomed to in Nigeria, infact strongly sticking to Nigerian norms in US hinders one from integrating properly in the society and that makes one a cultural deviant and of course that blocks one out from opportunities inthe society ... so how can that be avoided? Simple... by adjustment, evolving to catch up, however the results turnout differently with different people, some completely reject the past and move on while others hold on to the past but still look forward.

2. New Associations: there's a saying, "bird's of a feather flock together" look, if you change location you are likely to build strong relationships with new people and these new people tend to make you see the world from their own view, now that has it's advantages and disadvantages...
It's likely they move on with the progression of new association, leaving the old associations behind or pay less attention to old association as it is of less relevance.

3. The reality of being an immigrant: look, no matter how bad Nigeria is, you can never be an immigrant in your own country, you still enjoy specific "privilege". However in the US as an immigrant, it's not the same... firstly you have to bust your butt 24/7 to keep your head above water, you see these things called bills? They are real, and they can end up haunting you, especially if one just arrived and one is still trying to figure it out. Your friends may not tell you of some jobs they are doing just to stay afloat, honestly some jobs that they may have looked down on in Nigeria could be what they do on the regular and they may not have that state of mind to keep up communication with you, because you have no idea of what they are going through... then again maybe they left to the US on a visit visa and the reality of being illegal has caught up... infact ... bros let's stop the explanation on this immigrant life, just know that being an immigrant anywhere in the world is not an easy thing, not many people make it out in one piece at the end of the day... and this point is actually the most important point.

4. Time difference: this may seem like a little reason but bro it creeps up on you trust me... especially when one is working hard to pay them bills. Being in some parts of the US puts you 6, 7 or 8hrs off Nigerian time and that really just knocks it to you at the end of the day that, you live on different worlds. Now some people come to that reality and move on, while others may still hold on to the home team, look it varies across different people but it is a real condition. Relationships have ended due to the reality that time difference is actually a spatial separation.

5. "The Naija factor": I had to put this here because I ain't gonna lie, once one leaves Nigeria, the problems of Nigeria become very visible, appalling and disgusting when viewed from another country (I call it the enlightenment phase) especially in a system where everything works, in fact you ask yourself how you got stuck in a backward oriented system for so long... some people respond by totally alienating themselves from Nigeria or anything that has to do with Nigeria ... including people. Sad, but true.

6. Cultural struggles: This one right here is real... it first hits you when you realize in the U.S. that your accent in a language you thought yourself fluent in, is un-understandable... some people take in that fact very hard, like they literally go through socialization again just to straighten out their accents, sometimes even food becomes a difficult situation, because some people are not used to American food, others literally bump into boyfriends or girlfriends that culturally format them... in essence, people stop associations with people who don't help them in achieving social integration etc so the response level for different people varies

7. Education and training: Nothing is as enlightening as education, and trust me that is usually obtained in the US quickly, merely living in the American society educates you.
Once one becomes enlightened, old habits tend to be dropped, including old friends with old habits... the only thing that solves this particular point is if you are also updating yourself with a similar sort of education or training that enlightens you on the same level, otherwise a gap too wide on that regard, is a gulf indeed.

There are many other reasons but I decided to pick a few major ones to let you know why your stated instance happens mostly.
You just hit the nail bro

especially that "Naija factor"

Coronabirus:
YOUR MIND IS STILL ENSLAVED WITH YOUR FELLOW MASTERS, NORTHERNERS HAVE THEIR WAY OF LIFE WHICH NO COLONIAL BRITISH COULD CHANGE FOR THEIR WAY.

Over 700yrs back there was Islam in Northern Nigeria. Northerners accepted Islam through trade with Arabs which they usually meet at Senegal, Mali, Niger and other Sahel nations and that was how it propagated to Yoruba lands in Nigeria. But some bigots always create evil theories about the religion they know nothing about saying Usman Danfodio gave us Islam with sword, Islam was in the North centuries before Usman Danfodio's father was born. Danfodio only restored the true virtue of Islam & fought the then emirs ruling contrary to Islam teachings and propagated the religion.
When white people came (the explorers, missionaries and colonial masters what amazed them was the complete system of government in the North. Northerners were found educated, they could read and write using Arabic inscription, they've religious and community leaders at all level, they had good looking traditional attire. That was why it's easy for them to rule in the North. Northerners fought dirty, lost a lot of soldiers before being defeated by the British army. Unlike other part of this nation that accepted everything white man came with. They didn't have proper clothes to cover themselves, they didn't have religion, they only had traditional rulers that only extend their leadership in small settlements instead of larger society. No wonder they feel comfortable dressing half naked in the name of civilization despite being unacceptable in their religious book, no wonder they always worship whites and emulate anything they come with. Only few northerners were victims of slave trade as a result of strong leadership put in place.
Many bigots here are alleging that North is the beneficiary of amalgamation not knowing that North sacrificed a lot to stay united. We uphold Sharia system (Islamic constitution) we practice many decades before the coming of British which is now limited to only States and National laws supercede Sharia laws.
Christians traditions are adopted in the name of National Anthem and other government body organs anthem. We used to go to work from Saturday to Wednesday and compromised to the colonial system of Monday to Friday. Despite the fact that in Islam we're enjoined to go to mosque on Fridays but no where in the Bible where it's mentioned for Christians to go to church on Sundays.
[/s]

That thing you typed is JARGONS
You said a white man brought Christianity to Southern part of the country and your Islam has been existing before the arrival of the white people, okay
The Arabs who brought islam to Africa are what? Black?
or are Arabs no more white?

what your post claim that Christians are suffering from is also what Islam is suffering from, slavery mentality

White men came to Africa and succeeded in enslaving you both (Christianity and Islam) mentally and left you with confusion

find your root and save yourself from mental slavery

Music/Radio / Re: What Artists Should Learn From Burna Boy's New Album Twice As Tall by frainc(m): 3:11pm On Aug 29, 2020
deepwater:
Op

I stopped reading when I saw this line below

Puff daddy Executive producing the album was an act of genius from Burna boy and his team.


Simply because I do not want to hear more from some one who knows nothing about "westernization"

First off, any monkey with money will get Sean john combs produce his fcking album.

This is what happened to Burna boy, he was stripped off his originality, he was made to loose touch with the music genre of his people. Burna craved for acceptance, he needed to do things the western way to get accepted !

He did not release a good album, he released what the west wanted...

And for the Grammys, trust me it means nothing!

Create your own award for your own kind of songs, enough of pleasing the whites. We accepted their names, their music, their religion, their educatio their everything and we say we wan grow!!!


How??



Remember Dbanj, wizkid, davido once had their own International stint right....it is Burna boy time now..it is called use and dump!

Most of these foreign peeps are not relevant in today's American musics. They are trying to reach out to greener lands to feed.
But as e be we dey like rest oyibo things pass.

Make I hear say Japanese or Chinese musicians they fight for Grammy. Who Grammy epp
