Impressive grad. 0.02 less than Aminat Yusuf's 5.0. Nearby Covenant University's BGS whose CGPA is 5.0 currently works with BCG Lagos. Let's see what Olawale has to offer in a few years considering his UNILAG counterpart also worked with BCG before winning the Knight Hennessy scholarship to study at Stanford.

You think every woman who records herself in a restaurant or out having fun must be doing it based solely on a man paying for it?

This is why I’m convinced most of you don’t have sense

It is a pandemic o. The majority of Nigerian men in that country don't have sense. Lots of refining to do. Honestly, they don't have sense.

Good education and proper parental upbringing should never be disregarded in this life.

Must you people view everything from a dumbazz feminist angle? .

She's feeding fat on another person's ( a man) money. If she could afford to buy herself such dinner she would not be making a video of it to post on IG. These are actually hungry, deprived girls.

I really detest such girls. I would rather take a beautiful, young and shapely plantain seller ( I've seen a few on Lagos streets) out than all these fakeazz RUN'S girls. She is now probably dead. Now her suffering ends.

There is nothing wrong with making a video while eating. Many ladies do so even while with their female friends/colleagues. Men usually take pictures. I have witnessed a Japanese company executive take a picture of his meal before eating. I do the same too even while in Nigeria, largely for review purposes. Nothing wrong with that.

This una mentality get as e be.

We have young women who got killed because they went for interviews. Those who got killed because they went for jobs such as catering, ushers and make-up. I recall Bamidele's case who got murdered by a BRT driver and Umoren who got butchered when she went job hunting. So, it is disgusting to read that Nigerian men, especially young ones lay the blame on women for meeting people online. Even if she does hookup, it does not warrant her to be killed. It seems our people don't get it: prostitution is not a crime, but murder is. Tomorrow, na the same una go complain say ladies don't like visiting men in their houses. Heck, even the girlfriend of a boyfriend got killed by him. All in the name of rituals.

Na part of this reasoning make me comot from that country. It irritated me to the bones to share the same oxygen space with retards who don't understand simple logic. Here, young women walk late in the night without issues, travel long distances for interviews and even tour countries for adventure. One worked part-time jobs to save money while studying then took a year's leave to tour the world.

E no dey easy for young Nigerian women wey wan enjoy life. If you find a way to japa legally, please do. There is a whole world out here for you to enjoy life without being murdered simply because you want to enjoy life. If harm happens, the perpetrators get punished without the victim being blamed. I read crime stories from Singapore and in all sexual harassment, the culprits are caught and thoroughly dealt with. No one blames the victims.

I recall Bamidele was going home after work. Umoren went for an interview o. The one in Enugu went for a makeup job.

Tomorrow, when foreign women get scared by the presence of black men, na una go first scream racism. Something is mentally wrong with the average black man. Hopefully, I get to know what exactly that is.

omoredia:
She has a right to enjoy herself. It should not be an excuse to make light of her disappearance.

This has been my argument. Everyone has the right to enjoy life, but using it to justify murder is terrible. Honestly, there are lots of retards in that country. The reasoning is disgusting.

If lots of men know this, they won't worry about toasting or spending, they will go and work on their appearance.

Men are compensating with cash, simping and toasting when they can just ignite that raw, burning desire in her if he puts that effort into his appearance.

al terms. When one have enduring issues like being short, dwarfism, then the rules above does not apply lol

Appearance in Nigerian dating parlance is for the man to have money. No romance without finance. Sure, a fit and trim dude who is financially comfortable will be attractive, but if he does not show workings, ladies would say he is doing cho cho cho.

One intellectwat olodo in the US would think the black race can make it with these people at the helms of affairs. 😂😂😂😂

KingLennon:
Women have tripled the number of men in Nigeria. That's why I tell my fellow gender to always know that they are the prize. All the make-up and Silicon is just to impress us

There are more men than women in Nigeria and almost every country on earth.

tensazangetsu20:
Independent contractor in what country? Is it an independent contractor in Europe or where. If it's to work in the US with your EU passport it's still insanely difficult except on an L1 company visa transfer which I can get from here in Chile too by working for a US company locally. If it's to go work in the US, that's where the Chilean passport beats all of the European passports as Chileans have a work visa to work in the US similar to the TN visa enjoyed by Canadians and Mexicans and the E3 visa enjoyed by Australians. You only need to find an employer in the US rbid

As much bad rep the UK gets, it remains the best place for non-EU citizens to work and earn well. I think there is a tax rule which penalises income earners who earn above 70K euros in the Netherlands. As for Switzerland, I am really curious to know the black folks who work in non-UN organisations. I want to hear their stories. The work visa process for that country is insanely difficult.

In all, the white man has built functioning and thriving economies for his people.

lastkingsman:
See wetin Tensa dey talk about EU countries.

Cc: Tensazang.etsu20

Praise be to God because Numbers 1 - 3 are what I have preached for donkey months on Nairaland regarding relocation via study route. As a black African, the best way to get to the door is to attend a good school. At least, make them hear wetin you wan talk. Going to a no-name school does not offer that opportunity. So, how do you showcase what you have to offer? The worst thing to happen to a job seeker is not getting invites for tests or interviews. Even my friend working in the tech firm I mentioned earlier was asked which scholarship is he on as there is a certain kind of scholarship the firm does not like foreign students on.

Gerrard59:
I feel I should try to elucidate some things with my little knowledge on migration:

- Individuals should understand that at the end of the day, your finances (aka money) is more important than the destination. You can have all the dreams (anyone can dream) but to actualise those dreams, you need the money. Mere sending documents via courier costs a lot and you might be required to send more than once. Another expense is English proficiency tests, I keep reading folks who ask about the possibility of getting admission without writing these tests (GRE, GMAT, IELTS, TOEFL etc) but you need to understand schools who would waive these tests (majority do now because of Covid-19) are low ranking, won't offer scholarships and will be expensive. The last thing I can advise a black African to do is to attend a low ranking institution abroad, don't compare yourself to blacks there who are citizens. Is it bank balance statement? Flight tickets? Living expenses? School fees? Quarantine period expenses? Tests' costs? So, everything boils to money. Start saving rigorously but do so in dollars (I got to know this hack from Kemi Onabanjo - associate partner @McKinsey&Co who went to INSEAD, France - who saved the bulk of her school fees in dollars before devaluation occured five years ago as a result of decline in crude oil prices) not naira, and save under your pillow. Emefiele aka Meffy has been very funny. .

- Passionately learn the language of the country if her lingua franca is not English. Don't expect employment opportunities in Germany to be offered on a platter of gold yet you are not interested in learning German even though job ads of almost a million are advertised daily or same in Brazil yet to learn Portuguese na wahala for you. Don't be surprised or angry that Seoul University requested you submit IELTS score even though the official language of Korea is not English. Newsflash!!! Nigeria is not regarded as a native English speaking country, only South Africa has that title in Africa. Even if you are offered the possibility of gaining admission without it, write it 'cos it can make the difference in scholarship opportunities.

- Stay away from Woke people! They might share the same skin colour but their experiences differ from yours. When listening/reading tales from people in the abroad who warn you from relocating, ask questions. Try to know their migration route and citizenship/economic status. Someone who left via tourist visa and another who went for MBA at Haas School of Business would have different experiences, learn the mistakes the former made and strategies the latter did. Anyone who discourages you from relocating when s/he has not relocated to Nigeria is hypocritically wicked and does not wish you well (and if you check those who relocated, they are already citizens of developed countries). Flee from such people.

Best wishes!

I suppose open church.

lululovesblue:
They always seem to think it makes the woman less of a woman. Very nonsense mentality. One elderly woman in my street was arguing that children born through CS don't have rights to claim inheritance. Wahala. As if carrying the child for nine months wasn't enough.

Wow! Thank God for exposure because I honestly can't point out any wrong with C-section o. I'm trying to find the correlation between C-section and inheritance.

Everyone should have known by now that the average APC supporter is a two-faced ret@rded and unintelligent hypocrite.

This is as water is wet and the sky is blue.

jedisco:
Even folks wey don gel go stru

My only prayer is that after all this struggle, let their kids grow up with sense appreciating their parents struggle.

Proper upbringing and once in a while living in Nigeria are the best ways to go about preventing such. They need to see how and what the alternatives look like. On the other hand, they need to see/experience that there are other ways black people succeed rather than the few means in the UK. I believe it is important for black kids raised in societies with few black people to live and experience life in black-dominated societies and see that it is possible to thrive in any condition.

That divorce dey fear me. Its one of very few things that can take man back to the trenches. I don reason whether to pack some investments in 9ja first. But the currency dey evaporate. Na why I still dey single lane but man gats join dual carriage soon.

With a British passport, you are almost a global citizen. Nigeria should not be your only option and is not the only black-dominated country. There is South Africa, the Cayman Islands, Barbados, Ghana etc., depending on how your investments grow. If it gets too big, there is Hong Kong and Singapore.

Women are more brutal in their choices of partners than men.

Anyway, none of these social media rants about marriage show in real life. I see wedding and childbirth pictures every day on my timeline.

dustydee:
Nairaland moderators now promoting falsehood. When did oil market become oil price? By market he probably meant getting new market for our oil as well as sanitising and making the local market more effective.
Seun please modify the topic, this is clearly intended to malign Genera Buhari and the APC.

Oh yeah! Dustydee who is still in the yukay instead of slugging it out in Nigeria!

1.we ve seen d best of jonathan
2. it's ok to try any oda person,maybe shekau himself too
3.maybe buhari makes promises beyond him,he means well still and we can be sure he'd deliver all his realistic promises
4.lastly,nigerians are smarter @ dis pt than doing things d same way and expecting a different result;something must change

So, why did you japa to the abroad instead of Borno?

Ab initio, Buhari has ALWAYS been incompetent but this is the man Alore campaigned and voted for in 2015 only to flee his 700K job.
You people voted for a man whose cattle-rearing business defied basic economics and biology only to flee to the White man's country. Till today, you people are still fleeing knowing full well you voted for a monumental disaster. Tomorrow, una go follow shout say "black people are intelligent and can govern themselves!"

Most of you here don't understand. Go and ask Gaddafi and Hugo Chavez how they stabilized oil prices in their countries & you'd see and understand that it takes a determined Leader to do great "unbelievable" things. Most of you don't understand anything about good leadership so what Buhari said sounds absurd to you guys.

Stoopid miscreant! How has it gone for you since then?

there are women who started with hustle jobs in US, got into nursing and later entered tech with the scrum/ cybersecurity.

Nigerians dey hustle yet Haitians cannot do the same in Chile even after being afforded all necessary support by Chilean authorities.

Dey wine, you think everything is as blue and black to you. Dem tell you say no be street him be abi him no get him money. Even if he's not registered now, if he works his way around he will have all he desires. Are you saying people who migrated through the Mediterranean Sea to Italy won't later get their residency with the same persistency they used in crossing the border. Dey play.

Italy or Europe in general is different in asylum conditions compared to Canada. If it were the US, it would have been better.

Not all developed countries are worth seeking asylum in.

The WhatsApp screenshot does not look real. A cover to lay the blame on the deceased while the man is still free.

Too bad!

chukkystar:
not True. She can pay a professional Hacker to remove all Her nudes online just as Tiwa Savage did. U wouldn't even know it's Her unless You go close. The Sextape was a boyfriend girlfriend sex. She has obviously moved on with Her Life so Kudos to Her..

Tiwa Savage did no such thing. The video is still online. BTW, you don't pay any hacker to do it. You petition Google and Microsoft to remove the links.

There was absolutely no need for Dr Brown to even mention this girl's feat. Now, those who didn't watch the video would go to search for it. Blogs would repost it. It would now look like a recent event.

What a stoopid decision!

RodgersAkpafu:
are people really "doing well" in Nigeria as you asserted?
I'm not so sure
N1 million a month with a wife and three kids is not doing well, if really you wanna give your kids a good education, live in a proper place, and live the nice middle class lifestyle Nigerians used to enjoy pre 2010.

just saying

We have to define "doing well" here. That is where most analyses of Nigeria and middle to high-income earners do not cover. Also, we should understand that Nigeria goes beyond Lagos and Abuja. Although, I agree that replicating pre-2010 or even pre-Buhari era go hard this time around.

RodgersAkpafu:
no matter what you become
you are still a Nigerian and the stigma sticks with you
Mo Ibrahim despite being a billionaire has said that he does not ever travel with his Sudanese passport

so it is what it is....
that's why I laugh at those deluded "make it big af home" fellows in Nigeria

What shocked me was the insistence of the Egyptians for him to have an American visa to issue him visa on arrival—no bending of rules for Africa's richest man who is also a Muslim sef.

wonlasewonimi:
Dangote is not your friend and not in business to help Nigerians. Why are you people so easily deceived? What other products is he currently selling that is cheaper than any of his competitors? Now, he has monopolistic powers with the refinery, what are you expecting?

For the time being...BUA by Rabiu Mohammed is building his in Akwa Ibom. There is also another built in Rivers and one other in Imo, but I am not too sure.

“I mean, you look at it today. I’m going to Egypt tomorrow, but I need a visa. They are saying that, yes, okay, fine, they will give me visa on arrival if I have an American visa. But I have an African passport and they are part and parcel of AFCTA.

“But they are saying that, no, if you have American visa, we’ll give you. So they are discounting me being an African. So how do we trade if you are not allowing me into your own country?nbsp; What I would have loved to see is to see a South African coming to even get a job in Nigeria with no hassle.

A whole Dangote

You asked a very valid question and I will give you a Factual answer.

A MARRIED MAN SLEEPING WITH A SINGLE LADY IS NOT ADULTERY Contrary to the general definition of adultery.

Adultery can only take place if it involves a married woman.

Story. Tell that to ignorant Christians or religious mumu. So, your God is now a partial being?

This is my problem with some Nigerian Christians - blatant dishonesty and changing the goalposts in the middle of the game.

kay29000:
@happney65 I have always told you this, and you always refuse to accept it. An average female sleeps around more than an average male in Nigeria. To sleep around as a man, you need money...to sleep around as a woman, you just need a will to do it, and men will be available at your beck and call.

A boy needs money to have sex with multiple girls, a girl just needs to have a great body (which she is born with), or beauty (which she is also born with), and greed for money without the willingness to work for it in the proper way.

Pansophist has said the same. Pareto's principle comes to mind.

otherway:
You are heading for destruction in life.

Adultery is a serious grave sin and there's reason GOD condemned it twice in the ten commandments.

There are billions of single ladies you can play with. STAY OFF MARRIED WOMEN

But in your earlier comment, you said married women should not demand faithfulness from their husbands. But here you are admonishing a man for having sex with married women. How is the adultery of a married woman different from that of a married man?

When una wan dey religious, please choose a struggle.

Lordbinsmar:
You saying there are no jobs paying 4k dollars to people in Europe shows is either you are naive or biase about salary in Europe, especially considering the fact that you are into tech.

Also let me ask you what is the median salary of people living in Chile? So everybody living in Chile will have the opportunity to be paid 4K dollars per month.

It all depends on how skilled you are man, if you are well skilled you will make money regardless of your geographical location in the world.

Most of the best guys from my set in OAU are into software and they are all balling. Just of recent one of my classmate in Ife got promoted to a Senior Software engineer role in a US based company. Although I don't know how much he would be paid but maybe he will be paid more than 4K dollars and he is based in Nigeria. So what are we talking about.?

Its a know fact that software engineering is one of the highest paid profession in the world, so it has nothing to do with Chile or what so ever.
And also don't compare Scandinavian countries to UK again ooo. please don't be naive.

The bold is a universal fact.

As for your last statement, I would say for the average black African, the UK and France are better off than Nordic countries.
