Would you blame them?
When you approach people telling them you know how to cheat the system in a way not to get caught, what would you expect them to believe?
Adding to that Nigeria is a country that is well known for 419. So if you are a Nigerian in Canada, anyone from any community you will approach with suspicious and undisclosed information the way you just did will think of you as a 419er.


On a different note, some people run away from their community because they have built a very bad reputation about themselves within that community. And as a result, they will escape from the Nigerian community and then shift the blame. They will start talking bad about the Nigerian community. Maybe you are the problem and not the Nigerian community you are blaming here.

Just going through the post on Nairaland, can't you see that Nigerians are very intelligent people?

My mom always use to say before giving me a beating, "before you I was". I use to always think I'd be able to trick her but she'd catch me. Because she use to do it herself as a youth. My friend I've been around the biggest fraudsters Canada has ever seen. There's a huge and vibrant naija 419 community in Toronto. They ALL inevitably get caught. They think they're original with their crimes but aren't. The police have seen it all. And this is first hand experience from family members who have been jailed in Canada. I also know many police officers both federally and municipal. The feds allow you to commit your crime while they watch you. Sometimes even for years. When they catch you and present you with significant evidence (They have to build their case), that's when your eyes will shine.

Those Indians and Asians get caught all the time. Every fraud especially on a large scale inevitably gets caught. You know why ? Because of greed. Once most people cheat the system they simply get greedy and can't stop. That's when they come into police radar. Law and order is what makes this country go around. Same with other countries like the U.K., U.S., etc. Trillions and federal government resources are spent each year on it. Without no law/order and it being taken seriously, a country is essentially like Nigeria. It'll be hard for one average guy to beat the same. See how many people in the Trump administration getting arrested. See how many corrupted police officers are arrested and charged in Canada each year. And these are the people who work on the inside and have the ability to hide their fraud. Yet justice is still being served. If trumps admin can't get away from prosecution, you expect me to believe an average man will ? Maybe stealing a chocolate bar fine. You can get away with that one. But big time fraud ? Bros your days will be numbered. I've seen people like yourself say such a thing. Years later after the police breaks down their door and arrest them they understand the game.

Giving money to charity to get tax breaks isn't illegal

I have said it earlier that the Canadian culture is about mutual respect.
Therefore, we can't stone a gay person because of his sexual orientation like the white people were killing anyone in Africa who didnt convert into their culture.
We can't discriminate against gays neither because they are protected by the constitution.

However, for you to say Nigerians have a prehistoric mentality because they don't agree with homosexuality is a low self esteem in itself. It is like we have to accept anything the white master dictates. We can no longer choose what is permissible to teach our kids and what isn't.

The stone age mentality is letting other people defining who we are the same way they did in the past.

Well said boss, most importantly i think we need to teach and train our kids the African culture, i am not sure i would want my kid growing up to be gay or homo, i also think that taking our kids back to visit home( Nigeria) once in a while is very important, i am so scared that he care is not taken the western agenda to dominate the world economy and culture would eliminate our culture. I see another colonialism again.


Yes, our kids should respect everyone.
But we cant let them embrace just anything.

Please guys, say NO when your girl wants to marry another girl or her dog.
Teach your kids that homosexuality is unnacceptable in Africa. And we should be proud of our African heritage.

cochtrane:
I agree with most of the points you are making. But you should know homosexuality or being queer is not Canadian or western culture. That's not the right way to look at it.

Jasmine17:
Thats the problem. We all want that utopia but nobody is willing to bell the cat. I'm also guilty of the same crime.

But if we dont speak out, how will most people ignorantly wallowing in the cesspool of inferiority complex ever know that they deserve better?

There are times i read comments and choose not to say anything or give my opinion just because i dont want one fellow picking on me. But if we all keep quiet to keep peace, is that not hypocrisy?

That said, I think people should think through this Canadian journey well. Most married people are in it for selfish reasons and its just a matter of time before the cookie crumbles.

Well said you have spoken my mind. That is the trend now, some are migrating not because they want a "better life", but some "freedom". look at the case of the woman i said left her husband whether the guy was right or wrong i can not say until i hear his said. but she wanted to sleep with me, once i sensed it, i just stop talking to her, before she frame me up for rape and sexual molestation later on to use that to extort money from me. My advise to couples check yourself well and sit down and carefully analyze if "love exist" before you immigrate else..............

Some of the men are only using their spouse to get acceptable CRS points, ITA, and in some cases, funding for the journey. While some of the ladies in addition to using the men for the same purposes, are in it to escape their marriages or relationships.

Nigeria has good culture and morals. If only we had same quality of leadership, nobody will apply for this PR.

It is well

Guitarlife:
lol has it recovered really ? I see all this discourse are ofshoots of that very discourse I cant believe we dragged an issue for more than a week.

Its never happened before lol.

greyham:
I separated a portion of your text. That is their way of life (and they have laws guiding such) So when in Rome do like the Romans.

Stop being pained Sir, you can always move back to Nigeria PERMANENTLY if you want.
