And what's bad in doing that I once used baked Eba decorated with colors and laced with candies as my bd cake. Afterwards i removed all the makeshift icing (colors and candies ) and i eat my eba with a very rich vegetable soup. Decorated jollof rice was used as my 10th bd as well. ������ 1 Like |

9jaAmerican: When are you going to call out your ward councillor, your LGA chairman, your state HOA honourable, the commissioners in your state, the deputy governor and governor, your MHR Rep, your senator? ... Yes the government is making things harder by the day, yet there are thousands succeeding in this harsh economy. Its time to gather your wits, think about something that wikk generate funds for you without government input. atleast the government try for you small by paying a peanut of your overall tuition fee. Stop laying the blames at the stairs of the federal government. start from the root problem which are your immediate reps ( charity they say begins at home). |

sanpipita: Wanting quick money is a form or laziness my brother. I don't support the chief cattle rearer's way of saying the truth. Some of us the youths are quite lazy, dull and would rather fleece one way or the other than to change their way of life the proper way. Just becuase you and i are intellectual enough to create a future for ourselves and our offspring doesn't mean there are millions thinking that way. i dont knw you neither do i know what you're going through, but i guess you don't wait for the government to give hand down something to you before you made it in life. Must he announce to you on social media that he is going home. He is going home and i repeat he is, its a fact. 3 Likes |

i challenge anybody with sane mind and functioning brain to point out one of these points that is not true. everything he said is applicable and its happening all over Nigeria. I am from southwest and i can boldly say that 70% of the youths there wants quick money rather than working hard for it. Most engage in yahoo biz and b4 you come here to spew trash by blaming the government of the day, remember yahoo biz came to its peak between 2005-2009 and thats when more students were dropping out of university to engage in this nefarious act. Atleast i know more than 200 of such people. 2 Likes 1 Share |

sKeetz: Don't mind them jare, they are selfish. my guy, try as much as possible to go there and pack your own money on the streets too ( you might be lucky to get employed at McDonald or Wal-Mart) just don't go there with the mentality that you're going to hammer in your first 3 years ooo cos that will lead you to illegal activities and we already have enough bad image there. .. trash talk. Yes there are thousands who have spent 30 yrs there , most of them can't come home because of the shame and backlash they will receive in Nigeria ( how will you feel to work for 30 yrs and have nothing tangible to show for it except maybe your house in Nigeria) . most of them are on 30yr mortgage plan and they are hoping to atleast pay everything off and sell it and use the proceeds to come retire in naija. Do not blame until you find yourself in their shoes. |

whoever wrote this article deserves a Pulitzer prize-winning author of the year. The professor deserves an eminent award in consellorship and mentorship ( would like to know who he is and have him as a friend). Thanks to the OP that brought this to nairaland, to enlighten us the gullible youths and old of Nigeria (@op I carry my yansh and both hands give you). Now back to the story at hand, millions of Nigerian and Africa at whole believe money grows on trees abroad. And b4 anybody quotes me or say shit, always remember that your brother that was nabbed for drugs or scam was as a result of pressure you and the rest of your family members mounted on him, pushed him to do it. yes, abroad base come home with expensive gifts and stuff to impress or show off ( is this not the main goal of everyone that works or what's the essence of working like a machine and you can't enjoy your money). most people outside the country works as if they are German machine, in order to meet up with the demand of life, pressures from home and pressures from uncle sam ( bills and taxes). How many of us here in Nigeria pay tax and you all are walking free, how many artisan, self employed or business owner pays tax ( except maybe vat on your voucher). On one of my numerous trips to Wal-Mart, I remember meeting an elderly man from delta state in anchorage Alaska ( where -20degree is just a starting point of cold) , I asked him why he prefers working in that cold region where daylight is experienced for 3-4 hrs/ day in the winter. He responded that he couldn't thrive in lower 48 because young Nigerian migrants has spoilt our reputation there and he couldn't blame them because they need to meet up with the demand from home.. I met this man barely 3 months of his arrival on American soil and he showed me text messages from him family members demanding financial help ( this is a man that just got employed to Wal-Mart barely a week on $9/hr part-time job of probably 25hrs a week), he doesn't have a vehicle yet, which means he will spend average of 4 dollars/day on people mover "bus" , eat , pay phone bills , rent , electricity, water and "sewer" bills, and state tax and commodity (which he is lucky not to pay because Alaska doesn't have one). These young men just doesn't decide they wanna engage in nefarious activities but because what they met on ground was not what they were expecting and folks here in Nigeria wouldn't let them rest, they decide to make it through other means at all cost to meet up with the demands. If you're earning btw 100k-150k in Nigeria, you're better off than someone making $2k/ 2 weeks in abroad. in Nigeria you only pay federal tax and maybe some state tax, most of us don't even have health or vehicle insurance ( we pay what bills we incur at the hospital) but there in abroad, after taxes has been deducted from your paycheck, health tax , 401k "optional" , car insurance, Unemployment tax, and so on will be deducted and if you're working under the table you're expected to have health insurance through marketplace , failure to do this will incur nothing less than $600 fine at the end of the year and trust me, last thing you ever want is to owe IRS and uncle SAM. Most Nigerians in diaspora will tell you, they would have preferred to stay in Nigeria had they known what they now know. most can't come back because of the shame ( BLLB "BO se lo, lo se bo mentality of Nigerians). we need to cut this guys some slack. A friend of mine took $10k loan from banks ( lucky him with above 680 credit) and loan sharks just to meet up with demands of this families at home , he couldn't pay back at the specified time, well repo men came after him and the shark wouldn't back off, this guys had to do the odd but was caught in the process. he is still in jail facing the trauma and the shark men inside the fence. you will see Nigerians working on the slope ( ak) , go on fishing trip on the ocean for 6 months just to make money, many fall over board and are lost to the sea, yet some uncles, aunt, brothers and sisters will be asking for money to fund their expensive lifestyle here in Nigeria. 7 Likes 1 Share |

Politics / Re: The Problems With Nigeria by maestro2000(m): 7:17am On Mar 07, 2018 |
InfernoNig: hypocrisy is an understatement, you need to see the level of corruption going on in some homes. I have witnessed a scenario where a woman was faulting his 7 year old boy of not increasing a commodity price for a stranger/new customer. There was another case of a father discouraging his son not to return a found purse to the owner. The owner was calling incessantly to the cell.phone found inside the purse ( he claimed since he lost his phone sometime ago and the person who found it wouldn't return it then his son should keep the found purse and it's content). |
Politics / The Problems With Nigeria by maestro2000(m): 1:36am On Mar 07, 2018 |
The biggest problem we have in Nigeria is that we do not like to hear the truth The second, we worship money and Thirdly... we are too religious without knowledge we proclaim to hold in extreme. How can some idiots be killing other citizens in the name of God/Allah or for sacrifice? I heard an armed robber who said his gang would not go for any armed robbery operation unless they have a go ahead from God after serious prayers! In political meetings where the plan to rig elections, lies and share blood money, they pray, in motor parks where they perpetrate all sort of crime, they pray, in the offices where the biggest frauds are going on, we pray. I know a Court that would not be opened to lawyers until and unless, at least, 15 minutes special prayers are offered everyday... Annoyingly, they will ask somebody to pray in public function, he will ask everybody to stand up, he will sing for five minutes and pray for ten minutes, binding devil and evils spirits... The funniest part of it is that you will hear a self style 'Christian' praying like this: ' I pray in the name of God (god) of my Father Bleep Bleep ... (but the Bible says we pray in the name of Jesus)... Now some over religious individual will misinterpret and lecture me about putting God first... God! NB: Moving this country forward might never come to reality except we put aside our religious fanatism and blindness and love for money or worshiping the rich without regards to how they acquired the wealth. culled. |
Celebrities / Re: Williams Uchemba's New Home In USA: How Did He Get The Money? Nigerians Ask by maestro2000(m): 8:11pm On Feb 28, 2018 |
karika2018: Sir, we know with a good credit and a good working and credit history, you can get a house on mortgage and down payment but not this type of house. You can't be projecting a $3000 monthly salary on this type of house. How much do you think it will cost him to pay monthly ( 500,000,000 ÷ 340 = $1,470,588.235 this is just a rough estimate based on third party exchange rate) his monthly payment will be roughly $5k. So if he has a stable job of btw 4k and 5k , he won't still be qualified to take up such house on monthly mortgage plan. The banks or lending house and the credit bureau will never allow such a deal to go through because his monthly take home will be calculated against his spending cost. 1 Like 1 Share |

Why will I want to snitch on him when he has already done that. Talking from experience bro. I have seen it first-hand and I know the consequences of what he just did. Don't flaunt such wealth online while claiming middle or lower income earning. Oh, forgot to add that I am 100 percent sure he doesn't have a perfect 800+ credit to facilitate 0% down payment. Bro, no bank or realtor in LA will sell their houses for 0% down payment when there are tonnes of people ready to drop like 50%. 4 Likes 1 Share |
