OP correct the title: Buhari plotting to bar Tinubu

Fahdiga:
Let the delusion continue. It is good that Tinubu is wasting his loot this way at least boys will be happy. imagine a world renowned drug lord who is in the same mould as El Chapo, Pablo Escoba becoming Nigeria's president. imagine the kind of embarrassment Nigerians will be facing in the hands of airport workers all over the world when they present their Nigerian passport simply because Tinubu, a well known druggie is our president. God forbid bad things

Nigerians refused to learn.



After handing over Nigeria to a renowned terrorist for 8 years, they now want to finish what is left of Nigeria by handing it over to a drug lord.


Maybe after drug baron Tinubu, we will look for a ritualist to complete the tenure, Nigerians must get sense by fire

Habby222:
Advice needed pls.

I've been with this guy for close to four years now and its not really been a perfect relationship. Lots of ups and downs due to what I can term insecurity. At some point we're cool and the next minute issues arises just like every other relationship.

He's a good guy to some extent as he showers me with love ( my thoughts)and a lot of times he gives gifts not money though. I've had to give financial assistance to him alot of times, he returns some if he deemed it necessary and doesn't return if he so wishes. I've never complained about this and still always willing to help him out whenever he is in need. Pls note that we're both financially ok.

This gesture of me offering him financial help stopped when I realise he doesn't do same to me. I've had to test him on serval occasions that I needed financial help and he has never for once helped out on those request despite knowing he has. I never needed the money though, I made those request to know if I could actually fall back to him if I'm in need.

Last year October, I told him about my plans of getting a new car as I got tired of the one I was using. Pls note that I did not request him to buy for me neither did I ask for any support whatsoever. I contacted my source in the US with my budget and spec, was able to find one in a short time and I paid for it. All of this moves were known to him. By December, the car arrived and cleared accordingly with every expenses incurred payed by me. He gave some moral support though.

A week after getting the car, he called me one morning and started apologising for not supporting financially in getting the car which I told him I had no issues with that. I told him I wasn't expecting more than moral support from him since I could afford getting the car on my own. I also made him realise he doesn't owe me no apology as I wasn't t his responsibility since we weren't married and that even if we were married, ill always want to get my stuffs myself as long as I can afford it. The next I heard was him ranting on phone that he doesn't expect less from me, said I'm a proud and that he knew I wasn't going to be a good wife. He said he has always known I wasn't going to be a submissive wife and a whole lot of other derogatory words despite not having issues whatsoever prior to that time. I ended the call as I was so surprised he could say those mean words to me.

All through that day he didn't call back and I did not as well cos I was expecting him to realise I was hurt by his actions. A week pass and still no call from him so I decided to call him and he didn't pick. I'd sent a lot of of messages to him and has not replied to any. I'd gone to his house to check up on him and not met him too. Its been three weeks now and we haven't spoken and seen despite all of my effort to talk to him and or see.

Guys please I'm confused and do not know how to handle the issue. Pls advice.

Hmmmm......I will be blunt with you, and it will help you and a lot of other so called financially independent single ladies and even married ladies who wish to enjoy a beautiful relationship or marriage with their spouse.



Before you judge or assume anything about a man, first remember, a man is a man and can never be a woman. A man responds first to his natural traits as a man before societal conformations.


Every man have ego....even that little boy of 5 years...go and observe how he carries himself among girls of his age. It is not arrogance or insecurity or whatsoever the society paints it, it is being masculine and exhibiting natural traits of a male.


Men love it when their ego is massaged, especially by their female partner....it tickles their brain and makes them adore her more. Any lady that enjoys shattering the ego of her man in any way will definitely be having a rough, dangerous relationship with her man.


How did you shattered his male ego you maybe wondering

You have a boyfriend, a possible fiance who may have been considering and observing you codedly for marriage, and then boom you decided you needed a new car.....you didn't allow him play a major role in the buying of that car......to at least massage his male ego......you played a loner....a super woman that have all she needs at her beck and call......


You maybe wondering how you went wrong Let me explain to you again.......every man, I mean majority of men desire to spend and cater for their partner's every damn need....that's the desire and wish of every Nigerian man....but due to the harsh economy of Nigeria, this wish, this desire, this dream hardly comes to pass for most Nigerian guys.......having this in mind, you ought to have allowed him play a key role in the buying of that car unless he declined.

Playing a key role not just financially.....because he may not have enough to contribute to the buying of the car at that moment, but there is a way you could have carried him along and made him feel like he contributed in the purchase of the car to make him feel manly and in charge and to also make yourself appear submissive to him.....no matter what feminists say or what western culture say....Nigerian men are Nigerian men no matter their status or calibre....we all cherish and desire to spend our life with a respectful and submissive lady....it makes us feel so big and important lol.


You should have asked him if he had a friend in the US that he could talk to to help you purchase a car.....doing this will make him feel so important in your life.....if he then says no he doesn't have......ask him what he suggests....he may suggest buying the car in Nigeria.....you then politely and lovingly explain to him that honey or baby or sweetheart it will be more expensive here.....do you want us to dash people our money just like that.....that its better you guys buy from abroad.......this will lead to some beautiful lovers' conversation that may end up in a passionate kissing and cuddling and stuffs like that and then you have gotten his ego massaged and have also gotten his express permission to buy the car through your contact in the US. This way, he will feel his girlfriend is submissive and respectful to him. He may even be bragging about it among his friends.


Unfortunately most financially buoyant ladies cannot do what I explained above because to them it means stooping too low for a man.......and that is the major reason why many of them ends up single for life......divorced and jumping around.......and emotionally starved to the profit of trouser sagging jigolos and rich playboys like


But then, his reaction to this whole issue was really extreme and reeks of insecurity and overbloated ego too........another thing is, who knows if he is alright.....if he is even alive oh cos things de happen for Naija daily........so find out if he's okay. If he is okay and refuses to apologize so you guys can mend things and move on, then you need to move on too but learn one or two things from this

Mcslize:
Of course, everybody cannot move. But those that choose to move and have the means, should not be discouraged.

No matter how we tried to paint Nigeria to be a nice place to stay, we should always have in the back of our minds that we will always fear for our lives.

There have been so much gunmen gunning down people lately. If you do check front page, you will see so many issues of people being killed here and there.

If we go out and we get back home, we always thank God. Cuz some go out and never return. That's Nigeria for you.

And I still insist, we should not make it look like those Nigerians that stayed back in Nigeria are fools......because in the real sense, they are the heroes.


It takes a courageous heart to remain in a place that needs fixing or to stay with someone in his or her time of trouble.....the faint hearted run away at the slightest fear.

Leaving Nigeria for abroad does not make anyone doing it a better person.....its just a decision. No matter how bad we paint Nigeria or how bad Nigeria becomes, some people, in fact a lot of people must stay back. If 30% of Nigerians make attempt to leave Nigeria to other countries, many countries will start repatriating Nigerians in their countries back to Nigeria irrespective of your residential status.....citizenship can be revoked so long as its not by birth and by indigenous parents

pocohantas:
The house is not too bad to be honest and I like that she has gotten a mastery of how things work. I like the part where she said they take turns to pump water with their generators, lol. Typical Nigerian arrangement.

The problem here is that the ease of life in her country isn’t in Nigeria. To have such a life, the guy must have money. If he had money, he won’t be with a midnight newspaper for papers.

Last last, contrary to popular (Nairaland) opinion, most young Caucasians won’t follow a struggling negro because of some fairy tale love. That is why even black entertainers peak in wealth before they go for white women.

hahahahaha, you have too much sense, u sure say you no be man disguising as woman on Nairaland ni, I de suspect this moniker

Mcslize:
I was stopped today 12/01/2021 by a Nigeria soldier and almost got harassed just because I looked fresh. The mumu was asking me what I do for a living.

Do you know in Nigeria, it's a crime for you to look fresh and you can be killed by any police just for looking fresh? Do you know in Nigeria, it is a crime for you to use an iPhone? You can get killed just for possessing an iPhone. They no born you well make you follow olokpa drag and speak English.

Do you know once you drive a nice car you are tagged a Yahoo boy in Nigeria even if you make your money legitimately? If you try dragging with them just know they will pull the trigger and you are gone.

Brothers, this country is not safe for human beings to live. People live like animals here. All the rubbish they do here, do they do such in saner climes? That's why people are making the move cuz they don't want to die an untimely death.

On the 30 Dec, 2020 around 5pm in a broad day light, my phone, 2 ATM cards and wallet were collected from me with a locally made pistol by 2 robbers.

Now, after experiencing all these ordeal, you will now be preaching to me it is nice to stay in Nigeria and make all the money so as to top forbe list when you know that insecurity is a big issue in this country.

You haven't secured your life, it is money that is our issues? When you know that even the common basic needs of humans saner climes offer are celebrated as luxuries here in a country of over 200 million people.

When our lives are not safe, is it money that will now be our priority?

Let's be honest with ourselves for once.

My top priority right now is not money but peace of mind and freedom to move even in the night without the fear of being kidnapped or robbed.

So, let' be guided with what we wish for.

Insecurity in Nigeria is really a big joke, I honestly agree with you on that. What more can I say

All Nigerians cannot flee Nigeria to abroad, its not possible, so we must keep encouraging those that wish to stay back to do so without regrets

It’s nothing. C300 is an average Benz. Some buses used in selling herbs here in Lagos are expensive than that C300.

Basalt:
Watch out people, this was the exact advice that held me back for years in Nigeria earning less than #30,000 as a private school teacher hoping to among those that would make it to Forbe list.

I lived in such imaginary illusion for years before I came back to my senses and traveled out to Germany for my Msc, and through my part time Jobs, I came to realize what salary actually means.
The first thing I did after arriving in Germany was regretting not leaving Nigeria earlier.

Since the OP has started giving you Stat ask him to give you the total number of Nigerians making it to Forbe list.
The last time I checked the Forbe list, I doubt if I saw upto 4 Nigerian names there.
Four out of over 200miliion people.

You see ehhh, I hate unfair analysis. You guys should stop discouraging people.
If Nigeria favours you, good but just understand that it doesn't favour everyone.

I was actually angry with the OP until I saw his last points. He said it all, if you are doing well in Nigeria stay, but please if you are not doing well, please find a way to leave, come back when you have made money.
Nigeria hardly favours the poor, I have lived in for over 25yrs of my life and believe me I saw it all.
I have lived abroad for almost 2yrs and I can tell the difference.

Comparing Nigeria to abroad is unfair unless the person is from a wealthy background

This has always been my own advice to people too.


If you are doing well in Nigeria, stay and work towards increment in income and then plan for your kids to enjoy the abroad experience you couldn't get, that's it.


Quitting your good paying job or thriving business to immigrate abroad is stupidity to me because once you land abroad, you will definitely be starting life from scratch. Many go back to school to study the lucrative course in their destination country. That's years wasted

demanuel:
@ bolded, I talked about this sometime ago, and someone was saying that the purchasing power in Nigeria is very low, as most Nigerians spend a larger sum of their income on food alone, hence the environment is not conducive to build a good business. Also taking into consideration the level of insecurity.
Your thoughts?

Don't mind all those theory talking parrots lolz



Trading and anything business thrives in Nigeria. There are a lot of services to render to Nigerians. There are a lot of products to be sold to Nigerians. All you need is to study your environment and find out what is in highest demand and try to queue in with your creativeness.



Which job can earn you 500,000naira in one day in Nigeria or abroad

Samsung004:
Which university will you suggest for a Bachelor In Nursing in Nigeria.

Don't stress yourself looking for best university in Nigeria. Any federal university is very okay, just try and graduate with 2.1. While in your final year register and write IELTS while your brain is still hot and active to give you higher chances of passing it. Or you can write it towards end of NYSC. Then follow the UK nursing career pathway

ToksZee:
HEY NAIRALANDERS
so basically I'm currently in ss3 will be writing my waec this April I'm 14 years old will be 15 by April,i want y'all to drop your opinion. Should I study nursing (registered nurse) here in Nigeria and further it in USA (nurse practitioner or CRNA)
Or complete under grad here (babcock university) then go for PA (physician assistant) program in USA
OR medicine here in Nigeria (unilag) and complete my residency in USA,, and I heard medicine is SO so tough for average student (like me)...whuch path would u advice me to go I don't want to have regrets in the Future

Before you can study medicine in the US, you must finish a science course like Biology, etc, then enrol for medicine. The years is very long and financially demanding too.



My honest advice would be for you to go for Nursing (BSN) and then work towards registering as an RN in the US or start from UK which is easier because you wouldn't need to seat for NCLEX.



As for income, medical doctors earn more, but your income abroad as a professional is also dependent on the number of hours per day you are willing to work.

I don laugh fall for ground, na so 2021 go be like this

Mightymanna:
The Igbos of West Africa, who ever they support is bound to fail.

says a Yoruba Muslim who have been supporting failures since 1960:


- Yoruba supported Chielf Obafemi Awolowo's founded Action Group (AG) party in 1959 and they lost all federal seats to Nnamdi Azikiwe's NCNC party which got Awolowo suicidal and plotting to overthrow Nnamdi Azikiwe/Tafawa Belewa's government and he got imprisoned


- Yorubas supported Obafemi Awolowo and his Unity Party of Nigeria (UPN) and was beaten blue black by Shehu Shagari/Ekwueme's National Party of Nigeria in 1979.


- In 1999 Yorubas supported Olu Falae but got beaten by Olusegun Obasanjo's PDP massively supported by the Igbos.


The only time in history of Nigeria's Presidency Yorubas supported a Presidential candidate and he won was Muhammadu Buhari...and it was because Hausas and Middle-Belt massively voted for Buhari not for Yoruba low marginal votes.

Next time before you come outside to talk nonsense, go and study your history, inugo

IMASTEX:
Agreed. Though economic factor is the highest reasons for migration among Nigerians. Security is fast becoming another big reason, hence politicians & wealthy people keep their families abroad. If you earn 1 million in Nigeria, with just one adoption & ramsum paid, the person can remain in negative for long that is if he made it alive. Outside that, sustainability from whatever that is bringing in the cash is also at risk all the time. Even worse when it is an employee work, i.e. oil company staff, etc. We all know the level of sack. . . And the chances of ever getting such highly paid job again. If it is in business, that one is another new level of risk. With no government or system in place to come to rescue. Lastly, if the system favours you as an individual perhaps because of luck or few connection, what happens to the children, what will be their own fate?

Na only insecurity de fear me for Naija, nothing else

If we can have good security of lives and properties in Nigeria, my brother I can boldly tell you that Nigeria is second paradise

SIRTee15:
Significant number do the wife and children relocation thing while the main applicant remain in nigeria...esp oil company workers....that's what my FIL did.
But the point remain people are leaving and has nothing to do with economic opportunities. It has more to do with future security...

Let's be real...Nigeria's future prosperity is wrapped around international crude oil price. If that thing drops to less than 20 dollars per barrel....thats the official end of Nigeria.
This country can't survive a significant drop in crude oil price...it will descend into anarchy, massive poverty, uncontrolled insecurity n possible civil war.
And if u follow events in international media.. its only a matter of time crude oil goes the way of coal....
Some are ready to stay behind and take their chances...some are not. Not everyone is a risk taker. To each his own...No need castigating anybody. Thats my point.

Personally, the only professional guys I'll advise to stay back in nigeria are the IT guys.
If u are good and confident of your skills, live and work in nigeria but earn in dollars. That way, u are guaranteed of a stable income, spend less n can jump the ship anytime it's about to sink.

In as much as I desperately and seriously wish for Nigeria's economy to be diversified beyond crude oil sales, saying that if crude oil sells below $20 per barrel will lead to economy doom in Nigeria is a very big FAT LIE and I will take my time to explain it to you.



First, Nigeria's economy is never dependent on crude oil sales because the crude oil proceeds revolve around the pockets of few government officials and their looting gangs. Nigeria will budget 1 Trillion this year, 500billion for Lagos-Ibadan road, Kano-Kaduna rd, Abuja-Kaduna rd, Enugu-Portharcourt road, Onitsha-Enugu road, etc....and at the end of the year, none of these roads gets constructed at all......they end up spending less than a billion on these projects it was mapped out for.


So when Nigeria budgets 1 Trillion Naira.....most times, less than 200billion is used to execute substandard projects in Nigeria, the rest of the money is looted and moved abroad by government officials to countries like UK, US, Germany, France, etc.


What has been sustaining Nigeria's economy and Nigeria are:

1.) Nigerians and their hardworking nature - do you know how many Nigerians in Diaspora remitting hard currencies to the tune of billions back to Nigeria annually

2.) Nigerian drug traffickers and Yahoo Guys - yes we condemn them, we call them all sorts of names but these guys bring back huge FOREX back to the Nigerian economy, so much more than even your so called crude oil that gets looted by the elite politicians

3.) Nigerian Freelance Workers - it will shock you to know that these guys bring back huge FOREX to the Nigerian economy more than those yeye Agriculture corrupt Nigerian governments had been using to scam Nigerians since 1990

4.) Sportsmen and women - these set of Nigerians no doubt contribue immensely in Nigeria's FOREX income, thereby keeping Nigeria running


Crude oil is a big curse to Nigeria if you don't know. It is the major reason Boko Haram was created and the only reason Boko Haram have not been defeated after 11 years running.

Let Nigeria's crude oil dry up and watch Boko Haram shield their sword and embrace peace as their political sponsors in the North and in the Nigerian Army will know that no more huge billions to siphon through Boko Haram insurgency.


Fulani herdsmen from all parts of Africa and invading Nigeria and causing insecurity and tension in Nigeria all because of crude oil......



Crude oil is not what is running Nigeria's economy, our population and talent (both illegal and legal talents) are the reason Nigeria have not turned to Bangladesh and will never turn to such no matter what.

ednut1:
you lie. Most of those going to canada are high earners. But sanity is key. I save times 5 of what i did in Nigeria and i work for same company and do same job. So find another thing talk. I know people on 800k 900k still going to canada. Nigeria is a time bomb waiting to explode

Goodluck bro. I can stroll into Canada and stroll out at will, but I cannot live there permanently. No be my power, na Oluwa





If you find peace of mind in Canada, enjoy it. But there is no way all Nigerians will run away from Nigeria. And as for Nigeria exploding, yes I do fear that too, all thanks to Buhari that opened the floodgates of Fulani terrorists for them to take over Nigerian forests since 2015.


Before the war go start, we go japa to one safe country and once the war is over, we return back to set up businesses that will help in the rebuilding of whatever is left of Nigeria, in all you do, brother keep making good money, I mean lots of money, not counted salaried money per se lol

I think u looking at this relocating thing from a very narrow spectrum. Try n broaden your scope of research to the upper middle n upper class families...u will notice they also relocate.
A lot of bankers n oil company workers lead the pack in express entry applicant.....
I know someone earning 1.2 million who left with his family. When I spoke to him..he explained uncertainty in the oil industry is the reason he's leaving.
Someone else explained uncertainty in nigeria itself is the main reason he left.
Not everyone leaving are economic migrants....a lot has to do with future security...something nigeria can't guarantee.
What we should advise is abroad is not for everyone...and people should weigh the pros n con b4 joining the relocation train.

He is an unfortunate guy. He does not have foresight. It is a very pathetic story.


What happened to building a thriving business and investment portfolio in Nigeria with his already good income and work towards sending his kids and wife over there


Anybody earning 1.2million in Nigeria that quits the job to migrate or immigrate abroad is a fool, a visionless fellow who may later regret his decision.



As for bankers, I don't see their own as a reliable job anyway, but they can use their experience as bankers and access to fund to kick start a high profitable business in Nigeria. Most of such people lack foresight.. Most of them got those good jobs by luck and connection, that's why they cannot make sound judgment and that's why also they are usually scared of tomorrow, they don't believe in themselves. They believe in abroad saving them from future doom.

BabaOwen:
On what basis are foreigners moving around like this all over the country causing problems.

Which kin nonsense be this now. How can a Fulani man from Sokoto be causing problems for Yoruba in Ekiti? Which kin nonsense unity be this bayi

They are not Fulani from Sokoto.


They are Fulani from Chad, Niger, Burkina-Faso, Gambia, etc.


Ever since Buhari came into office in 2015, Fulani people all over Africa have been trooping into Nigeria.


They are the ones causing havoc and innocent Nigerians and making Nigerian forest and 6

Unfaithful ladies whose vagina always itches them and causing them to be scrambling for available dicks to scratch their vagina do change if they finally get a good dick that scratches every nooks and crannies of their vagina.



But you see male cheats, we no De change because we are not doing it for pleasure alone, we are doing it for fun, to while away time, to kill boredom and to keep company. So male cheats never change unless they catch HIV and on their death bed

Yaasir:
For people like Op, you won't understand the price of sanity and peace of mind until you leave Nigeria. I will agree that travelling out is not meant for everyone and should be done on reason. However, staying back too has more risks than you just painted. You gave the impression that living in Nigeria is risk-free. People are being killed in Nigeria more than locations where they are fighting wars. I can hardly travel on Lagos - Ibadan for 2 weeks without witnessing heartwrenching accidents. Now, I can move around even at midnights without having to be looking left and right. You need not harbour any fear about your colleague. See, your sanity is worth more than millions. It is not a coincidence that they have higher life expectancy than us. Life has more meaning outside Nigeria. You can make it in Nigeria for sure but life can be brutally brutal. It is never about you alone for your environment. People have been killed for less than 1k. When was the last time you heard of ritual killings or kidnapping in those places you mentioned? I will be glad to leave Nigeria again and again

lol, another good point, sanity

IMASTEX:
Why do people emigrate naturally?
* Economy
* Security
* Workable and sustainable system for all.
Any country that allows her citizens the above it worth dying for.

99.99999% of Nigerians immigrate because of financial and economic reasons nothing more or less.


If you are earning 1million naira and above in Nigeria legitimately, you can live a very comfortable life than those abroad, with good security and all that you seek abroad. You can only be visiting other countries for vacation.



If you are earning well, Nigeria is very good and sweet and very easy to increase your income through petty businesses, the op is kind of right.

hunterfit:
If I may ask, why do you think it will be a mistake for someone earning more than 450k to relocate?

Have you thought about the possibility that high paying job comes with high risk of job loss? Are you saying such person should wait until they lose the high paying job before contemplating relocation ( why which time it may be too late to gather the needed resources)?

Again, I ask, why do you think someone earning about half a million or more ( with the attendant lack of jo. security due to the unstable social/security, political and economic situation in Nigeria)?

if such person is not foolish, he or she ought to invest massively while at work. It is easier to invest in Nigeria than abroad.


You can buy a land in one popular city area in Nigeria and resell it in few years time for almost 50% profit margin.


You cannot buy land or property easily in Canada or US if not through mortgage with repayment plan of some years or even decade.


Any wise person earning good income to the tune of 450k monthly and above or like 750k and above ought to have tangible and solid investments and side businesses after working for like 5 years, if not, the person Na okpo


The person should remain in Nigeria because he will be better off than going to abroad to start afresh at maybe 40yrs. He can work towards giving his kids the abroad experience or 2nd passport through academics
