And it costs about same amount to fill your fuel tank which would usually last for a week too...if he's not in a major city in the UK, he'd be spending less for transport there than he would in Nigeria.

No he wont. One litre is £1.40 here, that's N3k per litre

If he's paying for travelcard in London, that's £61.40 per week for bus pass/train card travel for the whole week. Other Cities will be like £40-£50

Theflint1:
If he was in the UK he won't be bothered to provide electricity for himself and the alternative to private transportation won't be dingy molue buses, but I think his point was to bemoan the huge cost of living which in Nigeria's fake life era he was affording comfortably, but now it's starting to mirror his living expenses in the UK.

I don't think inflation is outstripping dollar or pound inflation so a wicked abroadian will still be up.

As long as his currency get surname (Sterling). he is in a better position than in 2022

Theflint1:
Well he didn't say he was restricting it to just food sha, but there's a context around which he'd run through that amount in two days without any major flex involved.

Let's even say it's Let's even say it's 400 pounds which is 900K in Naira, I don't think it's impossible to run through that as a returnee while not doing any major flex. I mean ordinary to fill car tank don comot like 90K from the money.

If he brings in transportation from UK, it wil blow away his thesis. Transportation in any major City will be that same N90k per week

Theflint1:
The guy said apart from bills... How much e apart from bills go be, make we use dawan start.

Apart from bills, it's feasible for a single man to live on £200 per month on foodstuff alone in UK (not counting transportation). This would be Spartan living though where you buy two or three types of food at start of every week and cook everything yourself.

So that's about N450k which can be blown in 2 days in Naija, yes, but he must count food only, not running gen or transportation, drinking or eating out, just strictly cooking his own food.

DeadPresidents:
Elon tampered with the weights. It was visible in the proprietary source code of X that leaked last year shortly after Elon’s takeover. This is how I end up seeing "LibsofTiktok" and "EndWokeness" on my feed.

You’re describing the behaviour of the academic version of Minimum Spanning Trees before any modifications

Yes of course he would tamper with the weightings but you can still flood them out if you have other shyt you follow that will carry more weighting. The only far-right stuff I see is from Elon himself cos I follow him as well as few Crypto guys who are into far-right who sometimes dabble into politics.

Shey una remember this conversation back during the PDP convention?



Now Dele Momodu is confirming it

Mumudu want raise shoulder with Atiku and Wike. I refuse to believe he is that naive. He knows the game just acting like he just discovered it. He used that N50m form to buy clout

Good lord I am so angry right now😡

Seyi Vibes is master of incantations and e dey work for am

Theflint1:
The issue he's dealing with has more to do with him standing up for his woman than it has to do with his political activism.

He's fought a noble fight at huge personal cost, and it's understandable if he chooses to hang his boots.

I find his journalism to be junk journalism. He is mentally unhinged.

Nigga what? 25 reps. What da hell.

That should be easy nau...and you arent supposed to feel like you did anything.

If I just wake up and go straight to push ups, I will do 100 reps at a go.

But I normally do jumping jacks., squat jumps and then 70reps pushups...2mins rest and another 40reps..before sit ups etc

You should be aiming for 50reps. You can do it.

My nigga!

TrebleChamp:
The minimum wage in UK is £11.44/hour, while Naija is ₦30,000 (£14.11/month). If the average minimum wage earner in UK work for 8 hours daily (8am to 4pm) for 22 days in a Month like the Nigerian minimum wage counterpart.

£11.44 × 8hrs = £91.52 per day
£91.52 × 22days = £2,013.44 per month
£2013.44 × 12 month = £24,161.28 per annum

£2,013.44 × ₦2120 = ₦4,270,349.44 per month.
£24,161.28 × ₦2120 = ₦51,352,947.56 per annum.

UK minimum wage per month in Naira = ₦4,270,349.44
UK minimum wage per annum in Naira = ₦51,352,947.56
(no wonder people dey sell their properties and all to Japa 😁)

Naija minimum wage per month = ₦30,000
Naija minimum wage per annum = ₦360,000 (😩 😭)

I am sure cost of goods and services in UK has risen above 5% in years, while Nigeria own cost of goods and service rose by almost 300% in one year.

Omo e dey hot down here no be joke...

I feel you bro

You are preaching to the choir but that's not our argument. Na wetin we dey discuss be this

Amigoss:
Did price of noodles in Uk jump high enough like this in few yrs?

No be matter of jump, that is well known. The original post I was countering is that one guy lamba that he spent more living in 2 days in Naija than he did in one month in UK.

monerozi5590:
Can you really rep 25 pushups on one set? Regular pushups. This thing ain't easy oh. My goal is 30 before the end of the year on a single set. Inclined 20 and declined 20 too and I am good to go.

Yes of course you will get to 30 by year end. Muscle memory won't fail you. If you are doing 20 now, you will be doing 25 in 2 weeks and 30 in another 2 weeks

Right now I'm on 30 but not trying to push past it. Human muscles will always adapt, there was a time I got to 60 within 2 months from starting base of 30. Likes of Mayweather have reached 180 before.

TemporaryHansel:
What??
They have been pushing adverts to fp since like forever.

Not for products except for that Carmart guy which was a strategic partnership which Seun has done before with another car retailer

They usually push bloggers content like that Alexreports but never just selling random products as a FP post rather than via advert banners. Last week it was rice, this week it's airpod. The advert banners are clearly not producing revenue like before.

Since when did Seun start pushing adverts to FP? This is the 2nd advert in a week

GloriousGbola:
egg is now 200 to 250

indomie 70g pack is like 230 to 270
indomie 100gt pack is like 400 or so

and that is indomie- the mount everest of noodles

you can also add the price of 50cl coke in pet
415 to 500 in naira

Forget Coke

Forget indomie and bring the cheapest noodle for equivalent comparison

I will say N200 noodles and N200 egg makes N400 vs N1.1k equivalent

@ livelongnprospa and Amigoss

The cheapest food I can identify in UK is one noodles pack for 35 pence and one egg for 15 pence.

So £0.50 can get you a noodles plus one egg meal. That's about N1.1k. What's the equivalent price in Naija for one noodle and one egg. That is a base comparison.

Amigoss:
Lmao,you dey use Nigerian foods in uk do example

Is Rice and Chicken Nigerian food? These are universal foods.

Even if we go for cheap fast food joints, you can't spend less than £8 on a meal in the UK equivalent of Buka here (Mcdonalds). That's N20k entry price to fill your belly

Suyas main content is beef which is a universal food, so I like to use Suya for comparison plus it's my favourite food.

The Suya spice is cheap to buy here so it's a fair comparison. This size of Suya is £12 here, that's about N30k. My guy bought it for N2k this time last year, let's assume it's N5k now. That's still N5k Vs N30k.

BlueRayDick:
This is not always true, at least my own experience differs to urs.

Personally I don't even use twitter at all until recently when people share links here and I click those links to see what's on them. What I noticed is that when u click those links and watch the video/read the thread, u need not follow the author before similar posts start popping up on ur "For You" page.

I don't even follow nor tweet at these people but somehow they just keep popping up . There's no way I will follow a character like Reno, but his tweets will pop cos I have clicked on his posts shared by users here in the past.

That's because you are an infrequent user. If you followed more people, the stuff you click from Nairaland will be crowded out by the people you follow. So the more you follow one type of link, the more weighting is applied to that type of content.

Every Social Media algorithm is based on spanning trees where vertex weighting is applied to the content/sites you have seen before and based on what others are linking to. They are all modified versions of HITS, Kruskals and Prims algorithm.

So when you have more varied connections, the weighting reduces on something you randomly see whereas if you keep seeing the same type of content, it will keep increasing the weighting until that becomes the dominant content you see. It is literally living in The Matrix.

Example below - Sites A, B and C all start with weighting of 1, but because B is linked by both A and C, it becomes the dominant site with final weighting of 1.5, while C reduces to 0.5 as it only collects link from A (which splits its power of 1 evenly between B and C). So any algorithm will direct you to B henceforth

This is the Google Page Rank Algorithm which is based on HITS algorithm.

DeadPresidents:
Being chronically online will do that for you. X is especially dangerous because the algorithm only highlights material with shock value that are either half-truths or outright bunkum. Personally, i don delete the App and only access X on a specific day between specific hours

Life is too short to spend it reading trash

I have only ever used Twitter to follow Crypto accounts. It's when you follow people that the algorithm will suggest stuff to you, so all my suggestions are crypto related.

Gucciboy:
Na Florentino Perez dey play ball abi other club presidents and owners no dey try.

Ask yourself why Alphonso Davies, Trent Alexander Arnold and Mbappe dey rush Madrid on free transfer. The guy is doing something right unlike his first spell with his disastrous Zidane and Pavons policy

Bombblacks:
This nigga. Why are they so many Trans news on your timeline.

The nigga algorithm is programmed by far-right to appeal to goblins in his head.

seankafor:
saw some news that says police trans women can now search women in their privates parts..

Mehn between UK and France, I don't know which has now become the headquarters of the woke virus 🦠🦟

You guys follow absolute inconsequential nonsense from your far-right Twitter feeds

Do you really think the average Brit is concerned with these nonsense you read on Twitter that riles you up, meanwhile he will go 3 years without seeing a trans in real life?

Far-right appeals to emotionally unstable people. Bobrisky done turn goblin or the monster under the bed in your head.

You better take yourself out of your useless algorithm and the nonsense it feeds you.

airmark:
Delap has potentials at 21 and despite those Onana's saves one could see he has presence in the box and his touches were tidy.

He is a player to watch.

I have been watching him for 2 years now. Even before he flopped at Hull season before last, he was tipped as the new Harry Kane but with a bit more speed

Amigoss:
Ibime when last you touch down naija? A lot of wicked abroadians who were in naija recently are agreeing to that post,they all can be dropping lamba

liveLongNprospa:
Lmao... You'll come to Nigeria soon.
Don't worry 🤗

That one na story. No dey whine yourself. If you go to restaurant here and come out with bill less than £20 (N40k plus) for one-course meal and a drink here, you have done well.

I am always in touch with the prices on ground and can tell you equivalent foodstuff is X4 here. I have a friend I do culinary challenges with, and I often inquire to the price of what he is eating in Naija so I know wetin dey ground. The Suya I pay N30k here for, he will pay like N7k there for equivalent amount.

izzou:
[color=royalblue]A pound is more than 2000 naira

So how did he blow his monthly expenses in 2 days without nothing tangible to show?

Is he earning 1 Pound per month in the UK?
[/color]

Maybe he is spending £1 per month in UK

In that two days he must have gone to one of Cubana Chief priest spots and bought all the Champagne

izzou:
[color=royalblue]A bit?

Very much exaggerated[/color]

There are nuances that depend on the persons preference

If someone goes from UK to Lagos and decides to be eating Kellogs and chocolate in Lagos, of course he will spend more because all that stuff will be imported. But if he chop local food, he won't spend more than in UK
