Toks2008:
we are exactly on the same page.

This thread was created to explain some vital points to a certain moniker by name fortuneTeller who from no where came out strong on me accusing me of a "possible" scam marriage just because I considered an option of marrying a foreigner and till this moment I still can't wrap my head around the fact that some people can be so myopic to ever think that way.

In this present day,guys scam people of good money while some ladies see a green card as a reason for scam..then I ask her.."are there not Nigerians who are still keeping their marital vow to a foreign lady even years after getting their green card through the lady they married?"

There is something fundamentally wrong with the psyche of many people and they are always quick to read baseless sinister meaning to seemingly innocuous moves.

Why do foreign ladies mostly marry black guys? OF COURSE FOR GOOD SX and does that not sound selfish to see a man as a potential intimacy gadget? then the guy marries the lady for nationality but along the line they could get on well and decide to grow old together but it does not change the fact that the condition that brought them together in the first place was selfish....this is the case with 9 out of 10 marital unions.

true words but I'm afraid of you o.

Toks2008:
I honestly love your sincerity.

Now do you know that those selfish reasons you mentioned are actually mutually beneficial for both of you?

Do you know that in addition to those conditions if her character was cool by you there won't be any need to leave her and both of you will be happy together despite the selfish reasons?

this is the summary of my write up....

i guess you're right, but if her character was cool by me,then it would have been a case of loving for the sake of love which would have proved you wrong, i really loved her with or without her money but i couldn't take the daily quarrelling any more.

solasoulmusic:
Well some of us do actually care about trust, honor and a good name. Character is another thing we all really have to look out for. A lot of the men will tell you it's a woman that guided him places yet sometimes you will see men gather and bash the same woman for entertainment.

When I think of Marraige scam is far from my mind it's not a fairytale but it's not just a label as well. You can't misrepresent yourself and the truth not come out one day.

Won't rush it...but if I am tying my name to yours forever you have got to be someone who sees better days ahead

Scams are elaborate but the eye clears one day and the brunt of the trauma gets deflected to the children if there are any.

Trust ....a 5 letter word but a risk if God didn't ordain that Marraige

I agree the best things in life are free.

life have taught me that Nigerians with the sweetest words like you are often the worst in character. average Nigerians don't care about trust and good name.

RealityShot:
I keep trying make people understand this
But it seems people don't care about that..
As long as they get what they want..

Selfish generations.. Smh

the modern generation don't care about trust, honour, good name etc all they care about is wealth and the funny thing is that most good things in life are free or very affordable to the hustler on the street, you don't need a 16million naira handbag,8million naira wrist watch or 1.2 million naira t~shirt to be happy but this generation don't want to hear that sermon.

the selfish reasons os why modern marriages are failing because you're supposed to love whom you're compatible with, love flows because you share the same ideals not because she's beautiful or rich. i almost married an older working class lady but as time was passing, i realised when co~habiting with her that we're not compatible but are only getting married for selfish reasons, she's desperate to marry due to her old age and I'm willing to marry her because she's gainfully employed unlike many present day ladies that don't seem to have a direction in their lives, apart from that, we're both unhappy with each other since we have different ideas about life. so i walked away from the relationship, i don't want to spend the rest of my life with a wealthy woman i really hate her character.

LoveDecay:
@seun.... ban any thread with IPOD in it.... nairaland is turning into a propaganda machine

how many biafrans jump into Yoruba or igbo threads? why can't some of you just read and move on?

southern kaduna should enjoy the change they voted for, el rufai ana ekwugheri.

somebody should just help me leave this country for Sweden, I'm not seeing any hope in this country with the lots of babachir,kyari,Aisha, buhari,amechi etc in power.

anybody that bothered to study buhari's history can easily predict these things.

and yet pensioners are dying of hunger in imo state. what about the workers sef?he spent billions on a useless carnival, bought expensive cars for already rich politicians, would soon claim over 600million for a Christmas tree, ndi imo ntooooooor.

LoveDecay:
Rubish.... thats a rebagging plant... when did anambra start farming rice. Coscharis farms are productive...

How did the rice win that award ... best african product.

Willie is working ....

funny guy.

she's just doing her job,what about kyari?

Was southern Cameroon asking to become an independent nation? Was it after or before Nigeria got her independence?

My point on unity is on the survival of Biafra as a single nation and not on the aspect of leaving Nigeria or not. Can you please state the current states of Nigeria that will in your view form the propose state of Biafra if it ever can come to reality.

Biafra is a lost cause that some Ibo (leaders) people want to bring up everytime to gain cheap popularity and score political relevance when their chips are down.

I feel ashamed that Ibos are so fanatically behind GEJ as though he is an Ibo man when they should be more preoccupied with having the chance to lead Nigeria as a democratic President.

The fact that a southern an Ijaw man got there before them speaks alot about their unity and their ability to submit to leadership under a single person or platform.

you clearly lack knowledge of Nigeria's history going by your questions, southern Cameroon sought secession, what they did afterwards was not Nigeria's business, Nigeria sought independence based on the African charter of right of self determination by indigenous people and southern Cameroon seceded on the same charter, biafrans are standing on the same charter but northern oligarchs like buhari are opposing it because of oil plain and simple. and please stop talking of igbo Unity because it's none of your business,, what we do thereafter in our new nation is covered by the same charter just as Britain can't recolonise Nigeria because Nigeria has failed abysmally in self government because of the same charter. please don't mention me again since you're neither involved as a biafran nor approaching the issue with an open mind.happy Christmas to you regardless of the fact that you're likely a Muslim.

psalmsjob:
You prefer to use a country in Asia to compare an African situation because it's convenient for you due to the success of that country but the question is is the level of unity amongst the people of that nation obtainable amongst the Ibos and/or the states that will form a never possible Biafra state. Massob and IPOB are not even seeing eye to eye to start with not to talk of ordinary ibo man to another ibo man.

i used it because it's a more appropriate example giving our similarity of religion and tribal differences. questioning unity is unnecessary, when southern Cameroon asked for a referendum to secede from Nigeria, nobody asked them such questions.

wait till the so called lake rice make it to the market, no quality local rice would sell for anything less than 15k,buharia and his family should lead by example by eating local rice henceforth.

i only pity the parents, sometimes you wonder if marriage and child bearing is still worth it?

takenadoh:
the number of Bereau de change is a problem,
this crisis didn't start today how can you regulate that guy at the street corner that isn't registered?

The CBN too is lying to themselves, wester Union is transferring for 375 -$ , Black market 490-$ , official rate is 300 smth

ha ha, a nation with five different exchange rates.maybe i should start saving my money in the form of bags of food stuffs, commercial vehicles etc.

smada13:
But the operators are the ones determining the price now. The understanding of OLIGOPOLY market will suffice. They started with creating artificial scarcity to push up the exchange rate of the dollar to the Naira...... The banks seeing this occasionally push their dollar to them to make more profit. That was the beginning of the decline of this economy

the price is determined by demand and supply. none of the operators can single handedly influence or fix the price, there are countless bureau de change offices nationwide competing against each other.

Ximenez:
Yea, a candidate might add that to make it 9 subjects

nope, i said it's compulsory, the current curriculum is totally messed up.

victorvezx:
Ipob knows in their deepest of heart that if Buhari wanted to come to the south east, they can do nothing about it because they don't have what it takes to stop him aside protest. So Are u telling me that Buhari should fear protesting youth? Protest is the least thing that can make A former military general afraid of visiting any part of Nigeria. This Ipob thinks the president moves with two body guard, lol, the escort he carries is enough to massacre a hoard of violent protesters in minutes.

you really "ate".mkpi.

sun newspaper is owned by orji uzor kalu,the latest traitor.

has anyone noticed that every newspaper article must contain glaring grammatical errors? what's the job of the newspaper editors?

Ximenez:
you are required to register for minimum of 7 and maximum of 9. As a science student this combination is good enough (English, Mathematics, Biology, Chemistry, physics, Agricultural science, Economics, Geography) you can now add one Nigerian Language even though it's no longer compulsory.

bros,you're still using the old school formula o,in the current curriculum, subjects like civic studies are compulsory.

SexyNairalander:
where is the law against gay activities cos clearly he is crushing on his fellow dude


those following him and the media are the once promoting him cos this dude is messed up

nairaland owner is among those promoting him by taking his thread to the front-page.

Ximenez:
Please don't expect OAU to accept subjects like fisheries, computer studies, catering and all these newly introduced subjects like home economics, civic education for screening into Medicine and Surgery, OAU only accepts the core science subjects (best That's why Further maths (B2) was picked from her result and computer studies (A1) was neglected.
The second point is that the quota for merit admission is 45% and the merit is irrespective of your state of origin, so for her to be admitted she must be part of the first 45/100 of the candidates that applied since she's not from any of the catchment areas which is alloted 35% and ELDS 20%.
Generally speaking now, candidates now run away from subjects like Economics, Agricultural science, Geography etc in their WASSCE, while they opt for subjects like fishery, Animal Husabandry, catering etc because of the higher chances of making distinctions in those subjects. There are chances that these subjects might not be accepted and screened for you during the POST-UTME screening depending on the department you are applying to. That's why some people would submit 9 subjects and at the end only five subjects would be picked neglecting the likes of woodworks, catering etc.

students don't run away from such subjects but are rather forced into it by the federal government who introduced the new curriculum. it's also worsened by teachers most of whom are either not university graduates or gained admission themselves through the Backdoor, talking from experience .

did i quote you? free me na.haba.

Biafra? Please don't distort my sense of reasoning this morning or drag me along that ethnic dialogue.

My logic is that we Africans are doing much better than those Western countries when they were at our age as a nation and therefore it wouldn't take us as long as it took them to become developed and besides you are quoting about their present age as the time it took them to develop and that not correct.

My prediction is that given another 20 to 30 years from now Africa countries would've developed if they stay united as a nation. South Sudan is a sad example, so be careful what you wish for, even if Biafra ever come to existence do you sincerely think there is unity amongst the Ibos now to ensure survival going forward as on nation with all this greedy and selfish leaders around.

at the rate we're going as a country, we would be worse off in the next 20 years. most secessionist states ended up better than their mother nations, Singapore a tiny secular island is worlds ahead of her mother nation Malaysia which is an Islamic sultanate
this is a better example to describe the Nigeria vs biafra scenario. anybody still having faith in Nigeria is..... . have you seen threads on the 2017 budget.

billions for carnival, over 600 million for Christmas tree. he who voted in a fulani into power should not complain.

didn't bother to read, a man that couldn't develop his own tribal lands telling us how to develop, maybe they should tell him how to reconcile with his children especially his first son that he slept with his wife.

Guy, put a source although i have read the same on the budget analysis thread.

kITATITA:
You should rather travel by road to Libya, not Sweden.

please stay off my mentions, I'm begging o
