Hahaha. Naija boys for Yankee day knack old obese Yankee women . Few handsome successful Nigerians are dating foreign women. A lot of naija women are the sexually frustrated ones. Our naija girls day do lesbians or dating old Oyibo men
I am curious,
- Why are our women not able to attract okay men who want to have sex with them?
- How attractive do they stand up when compared to African American/Caribbean women?
- Why don't our men and women knack themselves?
- Do our women in states with a high Nigerian population also get sexually frustrated? States like Texas, Washington, Maryland and Georgia? States with a high Black population.

This one dey think Chile is a first world country. South Africa is more developed than Chile. Women are easier in most south American countries because they are poor and love sex. You snap with random girls on the road and you claim here that U r nacking them. Please there are very exposed and internationally travelled people here. Not everyone is gullible
Not entirely true, please. The HDIndices and Chile's membership in the OECD are enough metrics to dispel that belief.

Seriously bro, it's very easy to spot a girl that belong to the street.

The easier way is to approach a girl casually, you'll get to know her true self if you approach her casually but once you bring in relationship, she mount her guard especially the 30+ ladies but still a good guy man will spot a street girl within days
Yes, I have always considered being platonic friends with women before stating any romantic relationship. I find it surprising and odd that men out there toast women straight up to be their romantic partners. I no fit o! grin I like it methodical.

Ayra Star is by far the sexiest and fittest Nigerian entertainer these grateful eyes have ever seen.

Can't wait to see her bikini pictures. A 20-something woman who is fit, naturally busty, nicely toned in the midsection and not afraid to flaunt her body is a MASSIVE turn on for me.
Lord have mercy.
The nearest to that was when she accompanied Rihanna to Barbados for last year's Crop Over Festival.

BTW, regarding your last statement, such women are abundant in the Caribbean.

for Nigeria to be well run, every tribe has to invest in their states of origin.

Nigeria cannot progress equally, some ethnic nations will be more advanced than others because their own people re-invest into their ethnic nations within Nigeria.
Nigeria cannot progress until all ethnic nations within Nigeria develop their own ethnic territory.
I agree with all three statements. The country cannot be equally developed because all cultures are not equal/the same. Some are more creative and entrepreneurial than others. Some are more risk taking than others. Some are more aggressive than others. These traits would apply to their regions.

These girls make it too easy for discerning men to unravel their covert activities. Maybe it's because I'm too knowledgeable about it or just mere assumptions. But with the rate of alpha male ideology being preached on social media, our young women should be prepared for men who won't be like their fathers. After all, these lasses boast of not being like their mothers.

Patronising sex workers is expensive in the abroad, especially in more wealthier countries. Sex work is inversely linked to prosperity. The more prosperous a country is, the fewer its women venture into it and vice versa.

As I've always said, Nigerian elites, especially the political class are very unintelligent, arrogant and stoo pid in the grand scheme of things. Not even up to a week Isaac Fayose said our elites prefer Nigeria because it's lawless, we've a typical example.

Tomorrow, they would want the rest of the world to view them as intelligent people. It's not a Black man or sub-Saharan African thing because our cousins in the Caribbean, United States and even nearby African countries wouldn't behave like this.

I chose International Students Hostel. Today i received settlement permission email from my school and i have been allocated single room (at the International Students Hostel). But when i clicked the website, the money is huge o. Abeg, is this doable ? i thought School hostels are way cheaper.
Below is part of the email:
3) Cancellation(
In case you need to cancel your stay in the dormitory, please contact International Student ........ by 5:00 PM on .....day, August (Japan time), with the reason of the cancellation. If you stay in an apartment, please notify us its postal address.
Requests for reallocation of the dormitory or room will not be accepted.
Ask them that you would want where Japanese students reside. International Houses are usually expensive. Get where Japanese students live.

Also, is the school in Tokyo? What exactly are you hiding? huh

Tallesty1:
Do you get? A nice article but he nearly ruined it with that part.

Nearly everything men did in 1985, they’re still doing today, but you don’t see anybody telling them to stop because it’s 2025. Look at marriages, even after divorce, the core things a man provides in marriage, he can still be mandated by court to keep providing for the woman and kids. But nothing binds the woman to do anything for him. It’s crazy.

In my family, everybody cooks. And being the one who stayed in the village longer, I cook local foods better than all of them. Recently, we were in the village for Easter, and I was the one cooking. My brothers were there, their wives too, and my sister, my mother, and others, I was cooking because I love cooking and I trust my own food. But all this talk about 2025 doesn’t move me. Yes, it’s 2025, I can order any food from my phone; heck, I can order both the food and the chef.

Nobody remembers it’s 2025 when we tell men to be the providers and do all the heavy lifting. Recently, because a woman died over ₦500k, the internet was full of “don’t settle for less” and “marry a man that can always cough out a million.” This is coming from a POS attendant that earns ₦15k monthly without any allowance.

Recently in a conversation with one, she said she can't marry a broke guy because she doesn't want to suffer; and I asked why she would suffer because of his brokenness when he isn’t asking for her own money?

Women have all the opportunities that men have, they have the education men had, they can get all the skills men have access to, and for some good reason, it’s even easier for them. But nobody reminds them it's 2025 when they hold back their own money and expect everything to come from the man. Nobody tells them it's 2025 when they're planning their dream weddings without contributing a single kobo.

Na man dey do man las las, NEPO kids dey buy off the whole food in the canteen because they no wan queue while LAPO kids are being told to start cooking because it's 2025. Na money and fellow man dey do man.

I dey live in one beedrom, I marry woman put inside, she no add extra room, na me dey pay the bills but na she settle for less.

Chineke kpọkwa ha ọkụ
Thank you for this reply. I have realised that it's no a "man's world" in today's world, but of women's. It's why today's men have to be more knowledgeable and cautious how they navigate life's challenges.

grin grin grin Context is important.

First, the guy isn't living in Nigeria. He is a doctor in the US.

Second, his wife is not Nigerian, she is American either Haitian or some other central American country, but she isn't Nigerian. The guy just wants to pepper you guys and everyone is arguing about this. The rich father in law he is talking about is just another American citizen living a great life in America, not under T-pain's reign. grin See why I said context is important?
These are important aspects people should understand. I have followed most of the tweets recently and many are so unrealistic for the vast majority in Nigeria. Also, they don't reflect real-life experiences as people still marry within their class in Nigeria.

Many netizens forget that Nigeria is a country full of poor people.
RomanceRe: Marrying Into A Rich Family by Gerrard59(m): 3:00am On Aug 07, 2025
It is not by marrying a woman from a rich household, especially as a man who has built himself. But by marrying into a family with fewer children. Marrying a woman who has too many siblings, especially young ones, is a red flag to me.
RomanceRe: 10 Honest benefits of marrying In late 30s or early 40s - A sober reflection by Gerrard59(m): 2:43am On Aug 07, 2025
AfahaAbia:
For me a divorced man in his early 40s with 2 teenage daughters living with him. I would advise Nigerians never to hope on their children for money and others. They have Thier lives to live and soon they will live your house to start their own families. You better keep funds for your old age and live and inheritance for your children
This is the most important thing: whether marrying early or not - have fewer children, and prepare for gradual retirement. Except in cases where the man is well-to-do. Too many people marry and have many children, thus putting pressure on the children to take care of them in old age.

Marrying early has its advantages. I watched Isaac Fayose's interview on the HonestBunch, and him playing with his teenage son was very lovely to hear. Interestingly, Mr Isaac wants to undergo a vasectomy in his early 50s.

SE and SS have 4 seaports which is more than anywhere in Nigeria..

There's a seaport in Rivers state called "port harcourt".
There are also:
Calabar port
Onne port
Warri port..

the only thing Lagos and the SW has over other regions is the spending power which means the buyers and consumers of most products in Nigeria is the SW..
A business person whose market is the SW will not import from the ports in the SE/SS regions then transport the goods to the SW to sell because that is waste of funds and will destroy the business before it starts..
you have never started or owned a business in your life so you don't understand how businesses work and make profits.
Calabar Port is largely moribound. It's only used for exports when there is delay at Lagos ports.
Onne port is "working". However, it's not all goods that are allowed entry via the port. I have no idea about Port-harcourt port.
Bomadi port in Warri isn't working. It's worse than its Calabar counterpart.

Yes, it makes sense to cite offices, factories and businesses in Lagos because of the population, but the favouritism towards its ports over others contributed to the population increment.

Despite the hike in cost of rentage in Lagos where i was born more than decades ago, i will still prefer living there if i find myself there again cos of the multi lingual nature and the fact that you can come across people who share same ideology as u. Now take Ibadan as an example, the youth ideology is an eye sore. For the first time in my life, i refuse to mingle with the youths here for my eight years in this place. I stand with Lagos any day any time. It is not about the cost of living, but about how lives are affected in place of residence.
How do Ibadan youths behave? Isn't that the birthplace of UI?

I do agree that Lagos hosts Nigeria's best and brightest. Abuja is in second place.

Bros, if you want complete reign over who migrates to Lagos, push for the disintegration of Nigeria. Moreover, should the bold be implemented, Lagos won't be what it's today. Check all major metropolitan cities, they're diverse and accept investments from non-citizens/outsiders/non-indigenes.

But hey, if you want to continue on the path of tribalism, you're free to, but do the first line I stated.
