That MMIA is just another Nigerian disgrace in a class of its own.

Been opportune to be at Qatar Airport, Shenzhen Baon, Heathrow and KLIA: mega-sized airport projects, large, mini-cities, sophisticated hubs with rail/bus transport links connected to their respective cities.

Comparing these to MMIA leaves you shedding tears.😀

Got there wearing jacket and the heat and lack of organization ehn, I wanted to cry

People jumping queue, daylight bribery etc

I just dey shake head

siofra:
All back cornrows.

I rarely make this hairstyle and I don't know why. Anyway, recently I made it and the compliments I've gotten are too much. I can't even walk down the road in peace
Seriously, I thought men only liked it when women wore expensive wigs.

Or maybe they think it's low maintenance, so they stand a chance??
No, I don't think so. Even women complimented the hairstyle☺️

We like it oooo

And women without those long winsh eyelashes

steadyMoving22:
Lol black man indeed, the UK is fantastic please!

NIGERIA hasn't done any better. People who never wanted to japa three years ago are actively working on leaving now.

Things were crazy expensive in December when I went. I'm sure it's x5 now

I tire for Nigeria

kwakudtraveller:
Again with the demarketing, you are not talking about how Nigeria has one of the most advanced tech when it comes to the fintech industry.. Nigeria is on the top 10 list with the most start up investments. Ordinary Barclays cannot give you a pdf version of a transfer as POP, something that Nigerian banks have been doing for years. But no, we’ll talk about how "we cannot build websites" because of corrupt leaders. The white child will hear this and grow up believing that we don’t know what websites are.

Paris is marketed as the city of love, we see how beautiful it looks in movies and we love it. Went to the same Paris and was smelling piss everywhere and there are protests in France every other day. But you’d never see them demarket the place, it’s sold as an amazing place for tourism. Abeg, I don tire to dey talk

LOL PDF in all of this

Just call a spade a spade. We are like 100 years behind these people whether or not you admit it

Shame catch me when I go Nigeria last December. Went through Qatar airport and got to MMIA, I was ashamed

We have a long way to go and we won't get there in the next 50 years unless something drastic happens

£1 = 1055 now Btw

kwakudtraveller:
You asked which one has the black man invented and I showed you proof. The hate for one another is the reason why we are not progressing as a race. We’ve demarketed ourselves to the point of believing that we are less than other races so why build the best in our country. If 24 hours electricity and a good transport system was your problem, why didn’t you move to other African countries with 24 hours power and trains at their disposal?? Also, why do you think immigrants from Poland, Ukraine and Russia are also running to the UK? Or you think it’s only black people that are corrupt? You can hate what we’ve done to ourselves as Nigerians instead of looking down at your own race. Abeg I done tire for this convo, next please!

Demarketing ourselves and this and that is not the reason why Ogun state cannot build ordinary website to buy train tickets on Sha

Black man no try, make we no lie give ourselves

heroshark:
I don't understand what you guys meant by get other visas?

Having other visas (which in most cases are visit visa) will not save anyone from the UK immigration wahala if the time comes. You can't use those visas to immigrate or even work on those visas. I have a long-term US visa and Schegen visa (Swiss issued) yet they are absolutely useless for immigration purposes.

Except you plan to travel and then turn illegal immigrant.

Visit the technology market on nairaland (if you are observant, you'll learn a lot)

I can do lotsssss of things on a valid US visa

Follow those wey know road

Does this DD have to come from the old account been switched or you can set it up after switching if there are no DDs in the old account?

You should be able to set it up

tensazangetsu20:
You can't blame yourself. All you needed in 2008 o be well off in Nigeria was a 150k bank job.

Well true

I enjoyed naija in 2008 no be small

Life was soft

Peerielass:
I weep for ma kontri o 🥲

It never gets better in Nigeria is what the country taught me over time (although I'm praying it does so I can go back)

I was doing patriotic citizen when my friends were leaving in 2007/2008 but I learnt the hard way

Nigeria is the only country I know in the world where the past is always better than the future

I hope things get better but the same issues we had 15 years ago are still the same ones today

It is well Sha

Hkana:
For the switchers, TSB is currently in the market. £200 switch bonus

Starling, it's time for you to go



Edited:

Their wahala too much

----
New customers will receive £125 if they open an account and then switch to TSB using the Current Account Switch Service (CASS) before 31 August 2023.

They will also need to set up at least two direct debits, use their debit card at least once and log into the TSB mobile banking app to get the first instalment paid into their account.

A further £75 will be paid into their account by 31 March 2024 if they keep their account open and each month pay in at least £500, make five debit card payments and have two direct debits.

Lexusgs430:
You are not homeless, not jobless, not hungry, not dehydrated, no ill health ......

You're very rich....... 🤣

True but then I still want some zeros in my akant

3 in one week and u dey complain

Was job hunting and applying to the US using Easy Apply on Linkedin in 2020, got over 600 rejections in one month and 2 interviews

If rejections dey bother you, then you're not ready

Best thing is to create an inbox rule in your email that will read and delete anything that contains "Unfortunately" "We regret to" "We will not be moving forward with" etc

Just Dey play

Lexusgs430:
The camera on the fold is very very good........ But how many rich men, buy the fold, for the camera.......... 🤣😂😜

As I never come rich, make I face my front

lavida001:

One I use is free
Can provide a link if you want

Lexusgs430:
I am loving my GP7Pro, but the Fold offers another level of experience......... Maybe because my eye's don dey reach retirement age..........🤣😘

Fold is for rich men

Is the camera on the Fold on par with the 7 Pro's own?

Lexusgs430:
Check ebay....... Google direct refused to cut prices........ 🤣

Or get a Samsung Fold 3 or 4......... 😂🤣

Unfortunately, I'm addicted to stock Android

Samsung is a no no for now

IvanCardozo:
This country don cast. Idan must possess the ability to smell rubbish before it happens. The country fit wake up tomorrow, tell us we've got just 2hours to vacate their territory. Honestly, that's how much I'm scared of the UK now. It's a timebomb.

I came here a little over 1year ago. And within that time, I've got a Greece visa, Germany (twice), America and Canada visa. I always had mind to work on plan B, cuz even sponsorship work here is difficult (except for care/support).

Bro, start working on that plan B asap.

Be like I go DM you

Yet to even try to apply to other countries but I don't mind that Yankee / Canada (visiting) tbh

Did you get the Greece and German visas before applying to the US/Canada? Seems you don't even have to actually visit if you have the visas

Lexusgs430:
Only £3K limit....... You dey fear...... Just spend what are comfortable to pay back (partially or fully), when due.......

Also set a direct debit mandate to cover minimum payment.........

Bros, any Pixel 7 Pro deals?

Abi make we wait for 8 Pro. Looks like it'd be flat screen this time.

rinzylee:
I'm tired of these headless arguments .


We can cry and moan, it is their country.

If we had it better... ..... .... 1 pound won't be 995 naira today.



Find your dream and purpose and give it the best of chasing.



Abeg @justwise @Ticha @Hustla @Lexusgs430 ... my credit card landed last week with £3k limit. Fear dey catch me to use the card. Abeg should I be worried

Worried kwa, even me sef no get reach 3K

Off topic

Looking at all the athons going on in Nigeria now since after Hilda Baci (cook-a-thon, massage-a-thon, praiseandworship-a-thon), I remember the guy that didn't give out his company name and people were asking "do you think all of us will go and apply" 😃😃😃

Omo...I too like the way people for take crowd the company 🤣

Not the same thing though.

Ive dropped names of companies, yet to see anyone coming in sef. No matter who drops a company's name, you still have to go through HR and then interview. That's how I see it anyways

Infact, one of the companies, na Indians and Carribean guys them even go employ join since when I mention them

dimejalex:
lol are you interested in US Egbon

Yes my Lord

US /Australia. Best to look at options before finishing school as Plan B
