Faithful4real:In the recent past, Nigeria has benefited more from doing business with China than the US. One thing I'd add is that I don't see much difference between the two. They are both pursuing their interests |
Faithful4real:Says who? I would argue that doing business with China in the recent past has proven to be more beneficial for most African nations than the decades of business we had with the West |
Faithful4real:And what can you trust the US government on? |
Golan007:After reading the story, I believe much has not been said about this. For now details are hazy but certain things stand out 1. It was a chartered flight even with international flights on hold. No one would charter an international flight without putting certain things in place 2. Those doctors would have been fully aware that an attempt to get into the UK without valid documents would lead to them being deported and definitely be the end of any aspirations of working in the UK. Definitely not a risk worth taking 3. Say they all didn't have Visa's. Would going together on a single flight not be the worst way to go about it? 4. Of recent, there has been an uptick in the number of Nigerian and Indian doctors and nurses moving to the UK moreso because of Brexit preps. With the lockdown in both countries due to Covid and also cancellation of foriegn licencing exams till the end of the year, there is a need to get doctors already licenced in Not too long ago (before COVID) the NHS got very bad publicity for actively poaching nurses from poorer Asian countries. Also during Covid, there was the talk of temporarily licencing those not yet due for it. That is the extent of current shortage in the workforce. It makes sense for the UK to try and get those outside who already have a license and of course, they'd try and do it without involving the media because of a possible backlash. |

While the story is a funny one, its more amusing how almost everyone on the thread had jumped to attack the op. Is it that they can't see that this is an obvious joke? |
RighteousI:@op I am a dude like you and I'd tell you that these fantasies you have of them do not exist. I've noticed people with this mindset are on the increase here... I'd ask you certain questions and tell you certain facts. I can expatiate on them if needed Questions 1. Have you lived in Europe or dated a European in person (not online)? 2. If your answer to question 1is yes, I'd add... Did you date the person for papers or you had your papers sorted out and dated a European who suited your fancy? 3. If you answered no to question 1, I'd ask do you know of anyone who met that criteria? There is a reason stable Nigerian men in the west (who migrated) usually return home to marry Now to the facts. 1. Human beings all over the world behave in similar spectrums. Ladies all over the world have certain attributes more common in them- same with dudes. You have cheats in every part of the world 2. If you think an average Nigerian girl living in Nigeria is entitled, then I'd ask you to multiply that entitlement by 100. That's the level of entitlement in an average white person. 3. For a Nigerian who grew up here, you're more happy to have a happy relationship dating someone with similar background/mindset. 4. If you see no value in marriage, that's upto you. People find value in different things. 5. If you marry a white girl, you'd find yourself praying she limits her problems to the kind an average Nigerian would give. There are problems they give that you would not imagine 6. For someone with your mindset towards women (white or black), Nigeria is the best places to live |
