Where is hope uzodinma? Not even 1poster of hope? These ones never serious..

Okorocha is just mad. Hope uzodinma is the governor we recognize. Anything aside that we scatter everywhere.

I'm not APC. But I support Senator Hope

/
Either way...

Hope Uzodinma will never be the governor of Imo state.

Let them finish the primary first.

And yes! I am from Anambra.

After living in a real democratic environment for years, one wonders what folks are celebrating in GEJ. He conceded a lost election. Kudos.

But then I remember that our people celebrate payment of salaries, construction of roads and flyovers, building toilets, etc. Now I can understand. The leadership bar in Nigeria is too low that even a monkey can be a leadership hero.

What makes a good leader? I don't expect any Nigerian to be able to answer this question.

Timi1990:
I was in this situation some years back bro I feel your pain . But to be honest remove the mindset of I want a cheap doctor or cheap hospital, that wouldn’t help you . Please see a dermatologist in any good hospital in Lagos ; the one that I used then is very expensive , he use to charge me 1k per visit every month after I paid 5k for medical card . But I must confess after 1 year of treatment and use of herbal soap that I saw on Nairaland here , am not happy with my face . The name of the soap is Medimix Ayurveda soap, it’s an Indian soap .

/
At this stage...

Have the dermatologist prescribe some broad spectrum antibiotics.

At night, grind some pure aspirin tablets mix with water and put the paste on your face to dry it out. Wash off after 20minutes and don't put any lotion/cream/ointment on your face after.

Avoid oil-based lotion or cream especially ones that contain lanolin. They clog your pores and make things worse.eg. Vaseline.

Report back here in 2 weeks.

About the drama, there was a country besieged by evil wizards, holy men in the day, evil men at night was their deceits. They are planning to seize the country back from a few Good Men. But in other to do that they must contest for the most evil among themselves. In this drama Devil himself is also a spectator.

The distasteful picture of hanging you posted would have caused uproar in social media if posted by a White.
Do you understand the implications of the picture? Some of you are so daft and irredeemably stvpid. If you have any atom of humanity in you as a black, you need to take down the picture as soon as you can.

Overly simplified. He overtook their bus and they pulled him over to beat him. Yeah right!

I can only imagine what the driver did to warrant such attack.

In Lagos? Yep. I can only imagine. Common courtesy on the road is seen as an abomination....dragging road with other drivers when there is absolutely no need for it.

Studied Airline ticketing and Reservations?

You can't make this up.

After Dino goes through all these harrassment, brutality and insolence, you will expect him to do Constituency projects. Let's be realistic.

Yeah!

This piece of crap is worth N3 billion.

I challenge anyone to name one agenda of Buhari's government.

Nigeria is on autopilot. No agenda. No plans. Just promises and improvisation. Even the much touted corruption fight is a hoax.

I believe that Nigeria is cursed. From frying pan to fire since 1960. Every election, Nigerians are coerced into choosing one among mediocres. Nemo dat quod non habet. GEJ was horrible. Buhari's case is out of this world. From an alcoholic to a dumb, lifeless fella very short of an imbe. There is no way Nigerian predicament is ordinary. If indeed there is God, he has forsaken Nigeria a long time ago.

The mechanic said, "when he comes back from school...".

So kid is getting formal and informal education.

But he should protect the child from health hazards. Otherwise, he is doing a great job.

WetinConsignMe:
The people who put up those statistics are not fool. What u see is actually the mean or median income not the average. They discount the extremes.

/

LOL. Excuses.

The argument I presented has always been the case against statistics. The data can be manipulated in any way to fit any narrative.


/

WetinConsignMe:
They are averages.

Google: Average annual salary of a lawyer in 2018?

The Bureau of Labor Statistics reported the average annual salary for a lawyer in 2016 to be $139,880. This works out to be around $11,656 per month on average.

/
I hope you know that in calculating averages, one very high number or low number can distort the average.

A makes N100k
B makes N60k
C makes N20K
D makes N10k
E makes N700k

Based on the data shown, the average income of this group is N178k. But then, look at the data again. Only one person makes the cut. That is 20%. Isn't application of statistics funny?

VULCAN:
You lack imagination.

Let me leave you.

And for your information my first trip out of Nigeria I was 2 yrs old.

And I have NEVER stopped travelling.

I live in the village.

Babyvet:
How much is the average student loan debt for doctors? Thats not new doctor, thats for experienced physicians.

/
Malpractice insurance? Student loan? Tax?

Like I always say, " no need educating the blind with visual aids"

VULCAN:
Comprehend what is written before making a reply. I said she should learn a skill that will enable her provide a service before she ever gets work permit.

You are one of those that believe that job is the only way to earn money. Limited in thinking. The informal sector in every country is huge.

When the wife gets there she can claim asylum, if they didn't come though skilled workers programme.

/
She gets visas and travel with her whole family. They land in Canada. She claims assylum. She starts earning money immediately with her skill since a job is not the only way to make money

You never mentioned accommodation and other immediate challenges.

How do you define delusion? You fit the profile of those that get lured with fairy tales into crossing Sahara desert. SMH

Tinubu is human. OBJ thought he was invicible until Abacha locked him up and threw away the key. If Ambode should turn the heat on Tinubu, you will see that people are only as powerful as an opponent will let them.

Tinubu is lucky that he is not fighting a short governor like Oshiomhole or Ngige. Short people syndrome is a tough nut to crack.

Timi1990:
So that means am better than a lot of people Who make less than $10,000 in yankee . In wizkid voice * baba mo dupe ooo*

/
The mistake folks make is whipping out their calculators to punch in numbers using the exchange rate. Consider this, a rent for 1-2 bdr in a decent area per month is about $1400. That is about N500k that you can use to rent a 1-2bdr flat per year in a decent place in Nigeria.

chiiichiii:
Hmmmm
This is a really educative thread.

I'm in a similar position as the op.

Please permit me to seek for sincere advice as well.

I am a registered nurse, midwife, public health nurse. I have PGDE, BNSc as well as MSc Nursing. I'm almost done with my Ph.D (Nursing). I'm a lecturer in a federal university in the south.
I'm 33years old, married with 2kids (7 and 2 years old).
My husband is a medical doctor and 42years old working with the state government.

We are planning to relocate to either USA, Canada or Australia.
MAJORLY because of our children's future.

Is it advisable?

/
Are you migrating legally? If yes...

It will take your husband at least 10 years to practice as a doctor in US if he is very smart (USMLE + residency). He can change to other profession in the medical field. In that case, at least 3 years for something decent. It will be easier for you to start in Nursing (challenge the Board exams).

If you are migrating to stay illegally, be ready to hate your life for years. 5 years down the drain, you still may not be able to find your footing.

The end result: Your marriage will pack up.
/

Timi1990:
Mistake $10,000 Is NO INCOME at all in the USA per year .

/
At $10,000 a year, the person is way below poverty level. The person is in a financial coma. Like Nigerians say, his life remain one bar.

/

VULCAN:
Your analysis is faulty.

If his wife and kids move abroad is she going to be a housewife? If not why are you using his earnings to judge what kind of life the wide and kids will live?

What matters is that she gets prepared with a skill or talent to start earning money once she hits the ground and then he supports her with money so she can go nursing or dental school etc and retrain herself. Then she will get a job and start earning

/
She needs at least 1 year to get settled anywhere they go. Yep. Did you just say that as soon as she lands, she will start earning once she hits the ground? The job is waiting for her at the airport. SMH. What will be her immigration status (the most important)? What have you been drinking? I wish it is that easy.

Let's assume he pulls N4m. That's about Canadian $14,000 . This is not even enough to cover rent for a year.

/

/
A friend of my enemy is my enemy.

When he bowed to Rochas, Gov. Obiano took note.

I wish Ifeanyi Ubah would just focus on his business like Prince Arthur Ezeh. One can be in control without being in the government house. Ask Tinubu.

/

ASPIREX:
A little background to aid your objectivity.....
I am a 47 year old Nigerian with a 43 year old wife. Married 13 years. Three kids; 12, 9 and 6.

I have a degree in humanities while she has a HND in Admin.

We are both involved in hustling in Lagos, Nigeria. The hustle hasn't paid off big time yet but we get by with about 3- 5 Mill earnings annually. We used to do much more than that until 3 years ago.

I have had significant international exposure having lived in UK as a child and also bisited all continents in the last 5 years.

/
N3-5m annually converted to Canadian dollars is not enough to support your family. So moving your family there while you hustle in Nigeria is out of the question.

If you are not going with immigrant visa, how do you intend to survive? Menial jobs under the table?

The only solution I can think of is for you to go first, feel it and decide if it is doable or not. But then remember that if you travel, the income you currently have in Nigeria will no longer be guaranteed. At 47, don't travel anywhere without guarantee. Such move is for those under 30.
/

/
A monkey could make that statement and it will still be valid. Death is guaranteed. Will Oyedepo himself make it to and beyond 2019? Only God knows.

A viral report on Twitter, alleges that a man reportedly jumped off Third Mainland Bridge this morning and according to sources the name of the man is Nurudeen.

The identity of the man who jumped into Third Mainland bridge this morning was confirmed, as his identity card reportedly dropped before he jumped.

Is that not Omenkalives?

Politics in Yoruba nation has always been a one man show. There is nothing sophisticated about it.

There was an era of Awolowo, then Adedibu and now Tinubu. All of them crude with foundations built on avarice. The last two championed politics of Amala and ewedu.

The question is: Who takes over when Tinubu dies?

/

/
The best place to test military might is in a black nation where the citizens themselves feel that they are not worthy of existence. Nigeria fits this bill. The saddest reality is the belief that sleeping and waking up is the same as being in existence. An average Nigerian doesn't know life until they cross the ocean to catch a glimpse of what life could be. But then...how do you educate blind people with visual aids?
/

/
Interesting.

Ifeanyi betrayed Coscharis. Obiano betrayed Ifeanyi.
Karma?

I hope there are other yardsticks for selection because financially, all the financial supporters of Bianca are all like houseboys to Ibeto unless Arthur Ezeh gets involved.

Stop living above your means...some people no go hear.

Why buy a truck he couldn't afford?

The car, the house is never yours until you finish paying.

REPO is a good business--customers are never in short supply.

Bourdillon close did not follow the master plan of Lagos.

Bring the bulldozers! Wink: wink.

Ambode is playing nice.



/

/
Ambode just lost it.

He had 4 years to clip the wings of Tinubu.

Governors from insignificant states were able to render their godfathers irrelevant politically within 1 year. He should have put so much financial pressure on Tinubu that Jagaban would have relocated to Abuja.

I believe that it is a tad too late for him.

Scatter APC in Lagos and jump to another party. But he is naive.

/

/
None.

Jagaban only exists when a group fail to use their brain but would rather follow as the stomach leads.

The real Jagaban in the South-East is Jesus Christ, the only name that commands some respect. For sure not a kleptomaniac with rusty teeth.

Didn't a patron buy her a N200m house recently?
