She has singlehandedly succeeded in bringing out Igbo genocide to the limelight of discuss. The british empire really need to do the needful to put this issue to a final closure for everyone.

asanausana91:
Yoruba mumu I swear. The igbos are using ipob to stop any Yoruba from campaigning in their land, while Yoruba are allowing these idiots to campaign in Lagos as they want.
I remember when Kumuyi wanted to have a crusade in their land ipob warn him and they succeeded in stopping the crusade.

Kayclite:
Uju Anya is just another agent/puppet of Western propaganda. Pushing gay agenda, rewriting African culture and trying to destroy the Black family unit.
These fake cries are just to gain sympathy from the gullible, while she takes instructions from her white masters.

Hi bro,

Is it possible to land a big 4 job in UK without any prior experience with big 4 in Nigeria? i am asking because i had a friend who got an invite for advisory services with KPMG but skeptical about his chances owing to the aforementioned reason. The guy is a chartered accountant and an assistant manager with a coy in Nigeria.

That's true. I remember Richard Nixon also came to the Eastern Region then to loan some money from Ojukwu for the US space program. He also got many great Igbo astronauts to take along to help in that. Without yeebos the US wouldn't have been able to send a man to the moon in 1969.

franchasofficia:
Journalists should also not forget to tell the world how Prince Philip, Queen Elizabeth's husband cheated on Queen Elizabeth with another woman, or why are they hiding that part of history?

OnionBandit:
This child thinks other countries are like Nigeria where anything goes. Well, maybe the general overseer of OPM(or whatever that church is called) will employ her in his pure water factory as a supervisor

plaindealer:
When we say they are toxic, crude, crass, violent and unruly, they get mad, throw tantrums and prove us right.

Sadly, this is part of their social cultural madness and a reflection of parental hate and bitterness indoctrination and radicalization from bath.

This is just too bad, bad that sometimes I ask why must I share the same country with them, if I ruled the world or even Nigeria, I won't hesitate for one second to let them go and partition them off for good.

lowander:
Hello All, please I need clarification on something. I recently got a job in the Uk with salary of £50,000.

Below are my questions:
I) is the salary above fair enough for a single guy
Ii) How easy is it to get side jobs outside the one on my work visa?

jclassiq:
But even those two, I'm sure they want to be trivialized. Fashola worked harder than tinubu by far. If tinubu were to get another 8-year chance, i do not imagine he could match Fashola's giant strides. Ambode's performance, also, sterling! But they cower in fear wherever tinunbu is present. He must have such a strong hold on them it gross.

zaki2:
Yet these same Igbos voted Obasanjo. I'm sure Obasanjo is not Yoruba but Egbira? An Igbo stepped down for Olu Falae to fly the AD flag in the same 1999, yet that is not enough. Until the Igbos go extinct before bigot like you will be satisfied. The world is watching.

MrAAA2:
Nigeria politics is something else sha.
I'm not defending anyone and not a big fan of any.
These events are so far with undertone of other events.
I am not defending Obi, rather I am just being fair in reasoning.

There was a conference organised by Coca-Cola in Köln LANXESS ARENA it was to cost 1,700 Eur. I couldn't!

So also, we both know that if PO asks for public funding, it's within normal polity as in global politics.

JOemmy:
Obi is an intellectual and an advocate for good governance no one will pay $250 - $1000 to come and listen to a complete dunce who don't have anything upstairs to offer let atiku and tinibu organize their own town hall meetings let's see if anyone will be interested to pay to listen to them.

JOemmy:
Obi didn't loot anambra state during his time in office like the way other corrupt politicians did to their states so how do u expect him to fund everything about his campaign where do u expect him to get the money from? In civilized climes it's supporters of presidential candidates that contribute to fund the campaigns of the candidates they are supporting not the candidates themselves. Nigerians are used to presidential candidates funding their own campaigns and even paying them to vote for them with looted public funds you people really needs to commend and appreciate peter obi for trying to change how things are normally done he doesn't deserve all these unecessary criticism.

lightnlife:
Ridiculously shameful.

Her crassness and crudity is another level.

Was hopeful the son abi na the husband wey come down would have a better approach but

Naajjii:
They think we will be deceived and scammed .The last time it was Buhari alot of people had high expectations, change change blah blah. Now these Obidient people have come again with New Nigeria, messiah blah blah. They don't even have structure on ground like Buhari's case.

JOemmy:
Do you even know how much nigerians in the UK and US pay to attend davido and wizkid musical concerts? What is wrong if they also now decides to pay to support the hosting of peter obi who they see as a leader who can turn things around in their home country? Let tinibu and atiku supporters also orgernize their own paid town hall meetings let's see if nigerians will also pay and attend.

MrAAA2:
Obi was in Frankfurt last week, about 2 hrs from me.
The fee was €20 Eur.
Some persons contacted the organisers to clarify why there is a fee payment, the response was that the cost of associated was from the event organisers and you pay to use their hall and space.
If Peter Obi was not willing to pay, that's when people will pay for admittance.

As for this one in the US, it is the organisers, just as you pay for conferences, workshops and seminars. Peter Obi is a Guest Speaker.

Of course he knows that there will be financial gains to help him in his ambition, it's a win-win for Speaker and Organiser.

Let's call Obi, Kizz Daniel, and the organiser, a show promoter. Who wants to hear Kizz Daniel sing will have to pay an entrance fee to the show promoter/organiser, from the money realised, the halls, facilities, ushers, protocols, lunch/dinner etc will be paid.
The balance goes to the organiser and Guest artiste/speaker.

It is not a LP event nor PO event... Anyways, I am apolitical but critic.

JOemmy:
Do you people even know how much it costs to rent the venues and other logistics that is involved in the hosting of those town hall meetings? Peter obi didn't loot anambra state while in office like the way other corrupt nigerian politicians normally do so u can't expect him to fund everything. The nigerians that attended the events are not even complaining they paid willingly to support the hosting of the events so I don't understand why people who didn't attend are now complaining more than those that paid to attend the events. America and nigeria are not the same country economically peter obi won't do this here in nigeria.

Poanan:
Ok thanks do you still have access to the mail connected to your username?

Poanan:
Please i am looking for a referal into consulting. I was told referaal is the surest way. Any type of consulting; mangement, fiancial, audit etc.

Abdu81:
Awolowo was the brain child of the Nigerian civil war blockade of the Biafra territory.

Millions of igbos died of hunger because of the blockage.


When Gowon rejected the idea of the blockade because of its consequences on his country men and christian brothers.

Awolowo convinced the army general that every thing is acceptable in warfare.
And so the blockage started in 1968.

Over three million igbos died not of bullet but because of starvation, most of this are children and women.

Awolowo had planned a total annihilation of the Igbo race, but general Gowon had to stop when it became obvious to him that Awolowo was out for genocide, and so in 1970 he recalled the Nigerian armies from the battle field.

But Awolowo was not done, as the then minister of finance he ensure that all monies belonging to every Igbo man was seized, to impoverish the Igbo race for all eternity.

However God have another plan.
And here we are today.

The same battle tinubu with his Muslim brothers are fighting against the IGBOS today,
but this time politically.
As always God will always have his plans.

The IGBOs will never avange.
Vengeance belong God.
And he shall avenge.

But never again will such happen in our eyes.

All the Nairalanders who claimed the infrastructure gave people COVID and cancer have gone silent. Let me go through that thread to see double mouthed members. No shame, no scruples and confidence in ignorance is rife in this forum.

Advision:
I think you are generalising. I stay in the surrey area and a -bedroom flat here is around 1k and they are very tiny. So you would have a very difficult life here on 22k and most jobs will offer well above that for a full time role (even low skilled).

I thnk its best people ask around for what is the best salaries for what they do and where they stay.

Solumtoya:
Bro, you were wrong about the clearance stuff sha. You can get a high-paying job soon after landing here and pass clearance. I did. So that was quite misleading. And students can pass the security clearance, I have a friend who did.

I think the topic can be closed now. The points are clear: be content, but always strive for more cos the job market is in a great shape now, it has never been this good for immigrants. So, don't short-change yourself especially with the rising cost of living. Citizens can comfortably take low-paying jons and be okay with it but we have a different situation and many of us aren't even entitled to State Pension, etc so we gotta be really smart! Develop yourself, get certifications, negotiate better, get side hustle, whatever it legally takes, keeping increase your finance. The old gees may not understand, na we wey just enter go hear am. But if you're on a low pay for ILR, not bad still, you have a good long-term goal, if you have a spouse, encourage them to push for better-paying jobs.

If this whole post is putting you under pressure or making you sad, check yourself, we are only sharing personal experience and encouraging our Nigerian Community.

P.S: this argument was just that £22k is peanuts COMPARED to Care not that £22k is bad in itself. I no know how we drag am reach here but e don tey we drag matter like this.

Amarathripple0:
I think people tend to confuse personal opinion or assumptions with facts. I literally shared screenshots in an earlier post of messages I get from recruiters with salaries ranging from 50k upward. I also do a lot of research on the company I’m interviewing with and use that as a benchmark to mention my salary expectations. The only blocker for me is that I’m still a student and this can put employers off . However, this would end in September and I can work full time from Oct in a role I’m experienced in. Hopefully, I’d come here to testify because honestly, our expectations are not unrealistic.
