I maintain my stance. Nigerian women abroad who are looking for a partner should either get with Nigerian men abroad who have their own legal staying documents or marry interracial, to avoid stories that touch. Or he can apply for a visa himself and come join her, if he can. I’ve seen some older interracial couples, though not common but it’s probably because most people marry in their own race. I don’t ever see myself going home to find a man, of all the options, white men, Asian men, mixed race men, black men. I’d leave all those and go home lol never! Haha
You should grow beyond that thinking. It is part of what is causing all this kasala wey dey ground. You don't want to come down from your high horse to get a man without a visa. What's in a visa anyways?

If I were a lady based on the diaspora, I will gladly hook up with a Naija guy. What I will never do is hook up with a guy that wants to escape Naija because of poverty. I will direct that one to WHO.

If he has a good job and reputation, we are good to go. Lots of Naija guys are already doing well here, they just want thats security for their kids- hence the relocation.

Will the marriage to the white woman last? How many aged mixed couples have you seen? Women that can tend to the whims and caprices of the Naija man are not so many.
You make it sound so easy. It's not in the repertoire of the Nigerian girl to reach out or approach a guy. Just as they won't do it in Canada here, they also won't extend it to Nigeria. They have the wrong opinion that it cheapens them. And that's their major failing. Probably why they will remain single for a long, long time. The outlook or thinking needs to change. You just don't stick with those you are familiar with all your life.

$3.5k a month is a very poor salary here in Canada. Which city does the person live? If Toronto, then that's equivalent to earning 120k naira per month in Abuja. A one bedroom apartment here inToronto goes for 1500$ per month cheapest. Some areas goes for 1900$ a month. Does she drive? She spends like 200$ per month for auto insurance. Phone, internet and other utilities gulps like 500$ per month. Reserve about $300 for feeding per month. Plz how much money is left? By the way, 1cnd$=280 naira as at today.
She doesn't live in Toronto. Not everyone in Canada lives in Toronto, oga.

Every diaspora thread always gets derailed at some point becos of all the desperate guys wanting to leave Nigeria so bad, they'd turn the thread to a FOREIGN VISA HELPDESK.

For the record in case most Nigerians back home don't know, every country has an official website.
The official website has all the information you need about moving to your desired country.

Secondly, there are international forums with a lot of immigrants giving you all the information you need to know about migrating to your destination or living there.

The OP has posted a topic worthy of intellectual discussion...instead every 4 lines, "sir, how can I ." or "Ma....how do I....."

The ass licking part is the part that gets to me the most. You can ask a question in the most subtle manner without seeming too desperate. Most Naija guys in diaspora detest that and they will tell you if you ask

Went to the embassy once out in VI and saw how a foreigner was talking down to Nigerians like they were scum and this was supposed to be the receptionist. A Nigerian receptionist who did not even speak the embassy's foreign language yet she got hired

Stop licking foreign ass. You are human and no white, blue, yellow or green man in a foreign soil is different from you. Just be yourself at all times.

Ass licking is the another reason why foreign countries look down on us. Becos we forever depict that slave mentality. Only the wise will learn, the stupid will only talk out their noses.

Just venting



The thing tire me no be small

1. google it. there are so many examples and incidences of oppression.
2. societal norms change all the time.
+100 years ago it was unthinkable that a black person could even walk in the same street as a white person.
+100 years ago it was unthinkable that a woman could wear pants.
+100 years ago it was unthinkable that people could stop worshipping pagan Gods.

See how society changes? It's fine, nobody is pressuring you to be an advocate for human rights. Just know that society is changing with or without you. There are more people who want the change. After all, norms are determined by the majority. Sorry guy smiley
Good reasoning, actually. I share your opinions

Canada is quite expensive. $3500 is not a heck of a lot over there. Translating $ into NGN is not like for like because the purchasing power is quite different..
Who doesn't know that? If you keep your bills low though, you will still save a lot of money. This girl has saved up to 10kCAD in six months cos she has kept her bill low. She never could save a quarter of that here in Lagos.

Lol you’ve just shown that you haven’t been to western world , lived in the west or Have very limited knowledge about living in the west . $3.5k per month is a low salary in Canada below the national average ($50k p/a)which means she’s also on a struggle in Canada . 3.5k in Canada is not equivalent to 980k in Nigeria (purchasing power).
See this one....lol

How many Nigerian single ladies in Canada did you meet? How many Nigerian single men in Canada did you meet? How many native single Canadians did you meet? The truth is that the country is not as socially inclined as Nigeria, UK or USA, so most single people take a while to meet other single people. In fact, the Canadian singles rely a lot on online hookups like tinder, etc to meet people hence the reason our yahoo brothers are making some money there now.

Well, maybe if you traveled to Canada too you would know what I'm saying. Looking at it from Nigeria, you can never understand. We wey dey shuttle, we know.

Do single girls migrate?

Why would a single mature girl migrate alone?

She is not going to college or university where she can meet people and integrate into their society.
Dey there! A lot of single girls from Nigeria are in Canada. These are girls with good education (masters) who left good jobs to go to Canada. Them plenty from kmpg. And some of the banks.

Social scientist, to be specific.
We theorize so that we can find solutions. Even what you just said is a theory and it's a good one.
So therefore we can suggest the solution of educating people about the differences in culture abroad?
I'm totally on board with that smiley

See? that's why people debate smiley
Anyway, i hope those girls adapt and that they realise that some societies in West demands something different than some African societies.

To be honest, i find dating easier abroad because it's very superficial. Men just ask you out on a date randomly. But in SA people will want to get to know you first. I like our way though smiley

I guessed as much. Wasn't that evident, lol? I agree, it's a theory. And I don't think you'll find significant untruths in this theory if you manage to take it up as a research subject. Honestly, i don't find it bad that they are lonely. I just find it ridiculous that they would want all their wishes (and with a cherry ontop) met like they were in Nigeria. High time waking up to the reality that CA is a different society where man (or woman) has different concerns or demands. Are you SA?

Okay, I hear you smiley
In that case, I know the dating world in other places are tough. Maybe they are struggling to bridge the culture gap?

Many things that would be okay in Nigeria, for example, may not be okay in Canada. Dating is different everywhere and maybe these girls are just struggling to adapt. I have also seen the same thing here in SA. Nigerian ladies don't date much. So I've also theorized about it.

These are just my theories. I always think there's not just one answer when dealing with a large group of people over a large geographical or cultural area.

There can be many reasons why these girls are not finding relationships. I'm also just trying to find explanations for this phenomenon.
Lool. You must be a scientist. Which explanation are you trying to find? You just dey try reason am away. This is reality. Though it pains me sha for them, I just kind feel they didn't understand what they were getting into before going to Canada. Some had stable lives and were in some kind of relationship in Naija, even if it was shaky. But now, they can't even figure the direction their live is going. If they were struggling to adapt, that would have been better. But these ladies are molded already, and it will take a lot to do away with the thinking they took with them to CA in order for them to actually see a glimmer of light at the end of the single, lonely tunnel they are looking down.

Maybe, just maybe, they're not lonely and they are actually enjoying their lives...

In most countries, it's normal to be focused on your career as a woman. It doesn't mean you're lonely. So maybe these girls just adjusted to their surroundings and maybe they're finally happy because they live in a society where people don't expect them to get married at 25.

Just because you don't understand or agree with a culture or ideology doesn't mean that it's wrong. So just because you don't understand why they are single and career driven, doesnt mean you are right in labelling them as lonely.

If that's your logic, you can label me lonely too. I'll proudly accept grin
You didn't get my point. They actually WANT marriage, that's the primary reason they feel lonely and dejected. These are not career women types.

I have 4 ex colleagues that married themselves over there. I also know another friend who is a nairalander that is getting married to a 9ja babe. Even in Nigeria here lots of babes cant get a man. This is 2020 no time for forming and shakara as time no dey. Marriage is alsoa trap most times for men abroad so he no worth am
Bad as it may be in Nigeria, it's easier to get a man here. Men would actually look at you or whistle or somehintg like that, even if it's bad tactic. Why not then? After all, they are your "kind" in some way. Trust me, some Nigerian women in Canada don't as much as get looked at twice. Some who I know who didn't dress too well back in Nigeria have seen good reason to up their dressing in CA, if only that will at least get them noticed.

The problem is that most Nigerians here don't make deep research about their intended destinations ( Canada, US & parts of Europe)... Those guys over there live a very private life and not being related to any of them makes it difficult to accept you, of which most have trust issues if you happen to be a person of colour.

Strong point! And their thinking is just immature.

Charleys:


How much do the average make immigrants earn over there?
$15 per hour is the minumum wage. That's what moooooost people earn, Nigerians inclusive. On the average, it gets to about $2k per month. But the bills are also expensive. Phone is about $45 per month, rent varies depending on where you live, it is usually about $500 anyways. I think some girls I know are paying $800. Those working better jobs are able to pay higher rent.

But trust me, most will give up all that money if only they can get a guy. Most of them are staring down a tunnel into their future and that future has no kids and no man even things continue the way it is. The chances are very high that the average Nigerian girl immigrant will end up unmarried. Not that it is important that they get married o, but the problem is that they all WANT it.
