I lived in SA for six years. It is usually said there that when a Xhosa girl gets a Nigerian boyfriend she calls home (Eastern Cape) to tell them she's gotten a job. SA guys no send their girls for transport money or hair money or any money for that matter.

Naija guys take care of their women. That's the difference.

sukkot:
alright let's do the math on your lying friend. 10 pounds per hour at 40 hours a week is 1600 a month. Tax will leave him with 1200 a month . Rent in Sunderland maybe 500 a month he has 700 left. Utilities like 300. He has 400 left. Council tax 150. He has 250 left. Phone and internet. 100. He has 150 left.

I haven't added feeding and this your friend has only 150 left. I put it to you that your friend does not even make enough to feed himself or get a haircut or buy clothes. He will be one of those Nigerians over there who go to Salvation Army charity or church charity to get free food because they can't feed tbemself. Almost 40 percent of Nigerians in the UK cannot afford food. If you go to the charity section of every church where they give free food to the hungry it's full of Nigerian families.

Are you blind with all the proof? gullible and irrational follower.

Hi there, haven’t spoken to Safiaa since she became inactive so I’m not sure, hope she’s doing well

ibkayee:
Ehen?

Slynation:
Hmmm...This monitor lizard, is it dangerous?? Cos the rate people are killing it this days seems like they were newly recruited by Boko haram

treesun:
What is the difference between Yenogoa and PortHarcourt? One campus should have been in Akwa Ibom or Cross River!

theamazonguru:
Very funny.
English no be our mother's language jare.
It's only a 2nd language. Yes it is our official language. Our agreed lingua franca.
Once you can communicate and the other person understands, English don do her job. Case closed.
The rest na shakara level. Forget, Syntax and lexis.

Which language does a man from China speak? Chinese right ?
Which language does a man from Germany speak? German right ?
What language does a man from France speak? French right?

These guys communicate in their mother's tongue.
They are not seen as illiterate or less developed or less humans because of that.

I have a friend, a Nigerian, Who schools in China. She told me all their text books are written in Chinese.
Her first job is to translate that Chinese to English before she understands anything.

So tell me why those guys won't understand what they are being taught in their mother's tongue.
But we for Nigeria we sabi English pass Oyibo self, Lori iro. Mtcheeeeeeeeeeeeew.
My wife reads her Bible in her language (Ibo). I no blame her ooh. As long as it helps her to connect with what she reads. In fact me sef don start to dey do same. Imagine I can read 4 different translations before I understand some verses. No be the same English them take write those translations? They are just playing with words from one version to the other.

My boss is a French man, who hardly speaks English. His English is below average. I can say on the scale of 10, I will; rate him 2/10. But this guy is a genius. He just landed in Nigeria 2 months ago. You need to see the innovations he has brought in, new IT system he has built for adoption in our operation.
This is the same organization I have worked for the pass 10 years, all of us just dey speak grammar Lori iro.
We sabi speak. Yes. We know our job yes.
Come and see our reports, choiiii so so grammar.
But he no pass that level.
E no translate to nothing.
French guy came in and saw what we all never saw in years. Na only to dey spot each other's error we sabi.

Oga free the young girl.
If you sabi, good for you.
Hope the grammar is taking you to great heights and helping you achieve incredibly awesome things.

Na that one be the Koko.

For your information, I had A in English, when waec was still waec , not today that miracle center is everywhere.
My comment is not coming out of hatred for the language. Not at all.

DMerciful:
All the points are top notch especially the electronic transmission of results to reduce rigging of elections.

Another good one is rejecting the satanic PIB passed. Our Southern legislators are just useless, allowing governors to do their work

dontbothermuch:

If we had the right Leaders, with the wealth we had after Independence, an Individual giving a community a borehole would have sounded awkward.

RedPhoenix:
The world's new endemic, self obsession and self worship that ultimately evolves into narcissism



The beginning of narcissism, self worship. And this is what most self help apologetics teach not in fulfillment in one's higher calling or service to divinity, humanity and one another

Roon9:
Delsu sef wanted to do.
They have already hired drone

yakatagoko:
Wait until you see universities in SA, u suppose know say naija is still in dey jungle....

WoundedLamb:
And who do they go to flirt with? Aliens?

No matter how much you call out girls or insult them, you can't clean up the society if you keep shielding the male counterparts because it takes two to tango.

JasonScoolari:
No wonder they set the Treasury House on fire...


Any hypocrite that comes to my mention to scream that GEJ and Chief James Onanefe Ibori are corrupt after seeing this thread will have his/her private parts harvested by those hardworking SKULL MINERS in the SW region.


General Muhammadu "Borrow Borrow" Buhari is an epitome of corruption.

amodu:
What is your condition now if I may ask

SweetCunt97:
Omo Sue the Phone Company. Sue IPhone for churning out dangerous expensive phones.

ignis:
Life is fragile, anything can happen.

This is a clear warning to guys that always invite random girls to come and pass the night in their house. What if she dies?

Investigation like this will commence

evilive:
Commenting early on a thread is like having a shop at the only entrance into a market. Such comments (in most cases) determine the flow of a thread; if you know what it feels like to be a landlord. Yeah, a laaandLORD.

Most importantly, commenting earlier on a thread increases your chances of getting 'likes'; the new currency stronger than pound and euro combined. I think that's something worth dying for.

As it is in the real world, so it is in the virtual world. It's all about competition; a morbid crave for attention; a silly race to nowhere; a rat race.

I think we all have the trait in our DNA, but the density varies.

So true.
I've noticed this crazy trend on most social media platforms especially Twitter and Instagram. People sleep and wake up there.

Honestly, to be popular on the virtual space is a full time job, and I'm too lazy for that.

Iyiataata92:
Now is the time for Buratai to get first hand experience of what the troops have been facing for a long time with leftover weapons from the civil war.
I hope he keeps to his words by staying till Boko haram is defeated
Goodluck to him and the boys

googie2shoes:
1. Please stop letting your mother dictate who you will marry
2. Since you are a mama's boy, tell your mother you want to kill yourself and need advise
3. If you end up not killing yourself, buy a brain and be a man!
