gmacnoms: Las las, na hustle for bread Everyman Dey. Factory o, Deliveroo o, care o, bank o, office o, suit and tie o, doctor o, analyst o.
All man is working towards one goal. Meet needs, enjoy life, and provide for offsprings Whether na topay rent (dead money 😁) or sleep under bridge o, or pay mortgage.
It’s all towards one direction, BILLS……..
E no pass like that. This mindset of Nigerians and Africans, in classifying labour, is based on where they come from and how life is there.
People in advanced countries like in the uk, careless, most times. They just follow what suits them and give them peace and fulfillment.
Nigeria? No, you must wear tie, enter office, and use biro and be analyst or sedan for computer 🤣🤣🤣🤣.
Same reason why this country grows and is where it is today.
I wish I can like your posts more than once.
This is probably the best post I have read so far about the whole argument.
Taal17: Well said. Left to me care jobs should be for those who have the capacity and empathy for it.
I can't even imagine having to need support or loved one needing support and then the care worker is one who thinks so badly of it. It's like being left to your fate with a doctor that is just in it ONLY for the money..that's how coverups and mismanagement and death can happen. , people you care would do these things themselves if they could butt hey can't.
You definitely living rent free in my head.
That is exactly why I have not done it because I don’t have the capacity or passion for it. People doing such job whether for the money or love for it deserves nothing but respect from me.
Viruses: Or perhaps you should pay more attention to details. The OP said people here say care work is useless.
Talking down on care work is different from saying care work is useless. A lot of professions have been talked down on here, but saying "people say care work is useless" is way too much of a mis interpretation.
You making an elementary argument here, people have used all sorts of adjectives here to describe care work, so I don’t know why you want to bring it down to this level.
Teniola101: Hello house, I greet everyone specially with all due respect. I’m new here and I will like to ask some few questions. Actually I just got my Canada visa and I’m due to travel by the end of this month. I’m going for a 1 day conference in Nanaimo, B.C. I will like to ask which airport will be my Port of entry? How many days should I book for my ticket, I was thinking of booking for 7 days I don’t know if it’s right like that, and also will I have to book for another domestic flight or bus because Nanaimo is like another 2 hours to Vancouver international airport.. I will be glad to get ideas responses. Thank you
One day conference ? Make sure that the agent tells you all the information he put in your visa application form else you are likely to be deported at the Poe.
From your post it’s obvious that you know not much about that conference or have an idea what the agent did.
lavida001: I give it max 2 decades from now oyinbo go dey beg dem for jobs and opportunities.
Just so you know india space agency single handedly landed a rover on the month sometimes last month.
Community lifestyle is at their advantage. They move like a wolf pack...working close to them as they celebrate diwali opened my eyes to their cultures and operations.
dustydee: I still wonder why people think Bozo is competent. I thought he was very incompetent even before he became PM and he did not disappoint after he became the PM. I have concluded that if you know how to talk and waffle, people may mistake that for competence. But what do I know?
I can't remember reading from anyone here who says he is competent, his incompetency was in the open, by the way Sunak was at the heart of that incompetent govt, the whole covid fund management was a disaster and we are all paying the price now
Her remark on homeless people and it being a lifestyle.choice sometimes as well as the incendiary commenta on the Armistice Day protest probably were the last straws.
On to the next Suella/Priti/Theresa.
But David Cameron is in though. Makes more sense.
She couldn't keep her opinion official, she said the quiet part out loud
Kenn55: It's perfectly in order. They are not against people who are in support or protesting for Palestinians, those views are welcomed. But to back Hamas? No naa. If you want to support terrorism then go to where it is allowed.
Its not that simple, you can't support Palestinians without indirectly supporting Hamas, Hamas runs the whole show.
Zahra29: Well said. Rape is rape, there are no tiers to rape based on if the woman was drunk, "flirting", wearing a short skirt, or even if she had been kissing the man or had had relations with him previously.
If she said no at the time, or didn't/couldn't give consent, then it's rape. Regardless of her age.
And the reality is the law tends to come down more heavily on the side of a white woman against a black man/immigrant, so extra caution is key.
I hope these individuals realise that they will be automatically deported as soon as they are released from prison.
Its important to take note of this section of the case and during the evening the defendant and a woman had been kissing. The woman, who was described as "heavily intoxicated", later went to the toilet and the defendant followed her. In the toilets Oriaku raped the woman in one of the cubicles.
The fact that they were kissing before she went to the toilet gave him the impression that the sex was consensual.
Sex with a girl while drunk is not considered a consensual act and this is something many new immigrants failed to take note of here.

Lexusgs430: You choose a SIPP broker, you manage this SIPP portfolio yourself, you buy, you sell, HMRC gives you 25% on top of each contribution you make......
SIPP account usually cost about £9.99 pcm & you cannot withdraw from your SIPP portfolio, until you attain the ripe age of 65......😜🤣🎂
dubaiprince: My understanding of how switching works is that you have to register with the current supplier first (in this case BG) as a customer then inform the switching team of your preferred supplier that you want to switch to them. They will take care of the rest
Not really, you don't need to inform your current supplier, your new supplier will do everything but your current supplier is likely to contact you trying to offer you a better deal to stay.
hustla: That thing shows how insanity is normal in Nigeria
Imagine telling Mast company to pay owo ile before they'll put diesel inside mast generator. The same mast they'll use o
I keep say neocolonialism isn't Africa's problem, we are just too wicked and shortsighted Smh
Its not, its just an excuse for incompetency and corruption. I guess International aid workers know that ''Nigeria is poor because we are rich'' so they rather focus on countries with real need for help
I love video like this, giving to communities that changes lives. Southern and Eastern Africa receive more international aids than any other part of Africa. Those guys are doing something no Govt or religious origination are willing to do without collecting first from the poor.
Why did them jump Nigeria and went to Cameroon though?
Akhat: Thanks. I have tried this particular link before, I could not find any part on how to switch from BG, rather what it shows is how to switch to BG. Or is there a particular way I need to navigate the link?
