Romance / Re: Japa: Blood Relatives Living In The UK For Over 30 To 60 Years, Nothing In Life by MemoriesAndMe: 2:37pm On Dec 10, 2022
GreaterFuture:

Ahh
Ok, sorry it seems I touched a nerve, or hit a spot.

So one cannot come on nairaland to drop a topic or something anymore...
Monitor another person's family, sorry oh, they are intact, technically "my family"

Then the issue should have been discussed within your family. Nairalanders can't go to the UK to help them fix whatever u said is wrong with that family, rather you only 2ant them to make mockery of them, which isn't fair in my opinion.

Romance / Re: A Friend Got Me This Perfume. How Much Does It Cost? (pics Ins) by MemoriesAndMe: 7:10pm On Dec 09, 2022
fadilaMaikiriki:
A friend of mine got me this perfume. He stays in Abuja. He just got into town from Abuja. I couldn't see him before he left for Abuja, so he decided to give the perfume to one of is friends to give to me. I just got the perfume yesterday.

So, I don't know if there's anyone here that has used or bought the perfume before. I want to know how much the perfume is being sold. I want to know the price of the perfume. So, if there's anyone here who knows the price of the perfume, please do let me know.

Thanks.


Attached below are pictures of the perfume;
You got a GIFT for FREE from a friend and you are desperate to know how much that friend bought it for to give it to you for free.

Pls, how many friends have you given free perfumes to this year and how much did you pay for them?

If the perfume is not too expensive, he's a bad friend, if it's expensive, he's a good friend. What about the thoughts of the gesture? Only ingrates think this way.

Health / Re: Fake Medical Doctor Apprehended In Lagos (Photo) by MemoriesAndMe: 11:48pm On Nov 26, 2022
Revolution2022:
What does it take to become a qualify medical doctor?It may be he doesn't have a licensed to practice his profession or he is not registered with Lagos state government.We know how Lagos state government will pull down billboards that is not registered with LASAA.We also know how Lagos state local government will go about closing business premises that is not registered with them.Multiple taxation.

You're sounding like a relative of this "medical doc" with this comment, or are you him?

Do you know how many lives depend on doctors? For him to be declared fake means he is not able to prove he's a real doctor.

Doctors are trained to save lives and it involves a lengthy and intensive process. Some doctors spend 7 years upwards before they can legally practice as a doctor.

Unfortunately, one random person goes to sleep, wakes up, says he dreamt he's a doctor and starts treating people. That's a quack. Many lives are lost to people like that.

Education / Re: My US Visa Appointment In Lagos Was Canceled By The Consulate, What Do I Do? by MemoriesAndMe: 5:53pm On Nov 24, 2022
planetx:
If Nigeria is so bad like this Nlanders that have never been on plane insist, why do Nigerians living in the US come here 5 to 6 times a year, why is it that the Delta and United flights to Nigeria from the US are always filled up on their daily flights to Nigeria if according to this people here on NL people are kidnapped as soon as they step out of the airport.

I never heard that piece of people being kidnapped right outside the airport before, never read it on any news before.

On your comment about flights being filled up to Nigeria, have you wondered if if it's same for flights leaving Nigeria? Have you considered the reasons people travel to these different countries?
I once worked an IT Consultant for a firm in the US that require me to make 3 trips to CBN in Abuja for some presentations, which I did and returned to my base which is Atlanta, US after the events were concluded. The planes were filled just like they always are when ure traveling to other countries from a major hub like Hartsfield International Airport in Atlanta, it doesn't mean everyone is relocating back to Nigeria, they may have their reasons for the visit.

CBN did send some of their delegates to the US too, we received them in Virginia and went for the presentation they came from. After the event, they returned to their jobs in Nigeria.

So, we can't say everyone leaving a country for good is based on the number of people on a flight. Some people travel for health reasons while some refused to return to Nigeria for same health reasons.

Just know Nigerians are the most well-traveled sets of people in the world and freely go anywhere if they want or have business interests there.

That's not true bro. A lot of Nigerians based in the US are not US slaves like some Nigerians label them probably put of jealousy or hypocrisy. Many of the hypocrites will be first to jump on a plane if they're granted a US visa.

That some people come to Nigeria once in 7 years is their personal decision. What would you do if you keep hearing same bad news about Nigeria for 7 years? Run back to same Nigeria.

I'm based in the US and I know several folks that come to Nigeria 4 to 6 times a year cos they have businesses in the US and in Nigeria too that need their attention. How does that make them slaves? I was in Nigeria in February and will be there again for this Christmas.

So if you only know folks that refused to come home, ask them their reasons first before judging them.

KingOfTheDamned:
grin

Kai Yoruba people and evil. See as they used their media to style the report as if Those ibos where the worst hit by the flood because of Peter Obi being from their tribe?

Why are the Yoruba so uncivilized hate filled and always tribalsitic?

See how they turned a serious report that should detail those innocent people affected around the country to a tribalsitic trash piece .

Even here in my Edo state we didn't feel the flooding much but I know Bayelsa was nearly submerged....

Same with Benue state , Adamawa etc

Why focus on Anambra ? Anyways I don't blame that devilish tribe I blame the ibos for placing themselves in such a situation that the Yorubas just ridicule them whenever they want

You ibos spent years believing the Yoruba media that told you the north is your enemy when the Yoruba are your true enemies .

You ibos need to get some sense .. the north have absolutely nothing against you, the southwest are your true enemies .

If Una like make Una no wise

You are sick. What has flooding and the map of Nigeria got to do with Yoruba, Ibo or Hausa? Here you are insulting an entire tribe for no reason at all. Who is being tribalistic here? You need help bro, some meds can help restore your sanity.

Very very parochial and barbaric style In a modern day Ina very chaotic and rowdy environment.

They end up selling the cars at ridiculously cheap prices, and will not allow any higher bidder to come in.

Why not tell the car owner to pay a fine of the same amount of auction.

Give them the right of first refusal before you turn them into rags.

They probably had that option and refused to pay - waiting for connections to get their cars out until time lapsed.

CaveAdullam:
1. Celebration of materialism, entertainment, and theatre are potent signs of a declining or failed society.

2. These young people will never celebrate the young man striving to survive on the street, they will look down on the young girl hawking her merchandise to make ends meet. Because their lives are not flashy, they don't exude a perfume of luxury and greed. But one thing you can't take from these men and women is the wisdom and strength birthed out of their life's struggles and experiences.

3. Younger minds of today have been bastardized by every show of flashiness, there lies their dopamine hit. They are myopic, lazy, complacent, and vapid because they don't value what's not glamouring like gold. Their rights have been taken away from them via entertainment, but they will accuse, rush and attack you when you bring this to their notice.

4. Their role models are fraudsters, prostitutes, sociopaths, the corrupt, weak, arrogant, and neurotic. These are their golden calves, their gods, and their oracle.

5. Flexing wealth is always a sign of low IQ except it is a result of official duties. The dumb and low in intelligence flex wealth because it veneers their feebleness and drawbacks because they lack what's true: wisdom, character, integrity, competence, kindness, modesty, brave, assertiveness, confidence, and courage. These qualities are not flashy and will not be glorified by the generations of dumb fellows.

6. Flexing wealth is one thing, but having the capacity to protect your life after the flexing is the most vital because you have awakened sleeping demons and devils that reside in manipulations, greed, envy, and jealousy. A case of penny wise pounds foolish.

7. Will I say, unfortunately? Ironically, a society that needs growth, truth, and freedom is the same society that will jettison and throw immaterial transcendental virtues under the bus when it comes to beautiful looks, flashy cars, designer clothes, fanciful gadgets, shining jewelry, and polished shoes. A weak generation indeed!

Sigh.
Are you related to Prof Wole Soyinka? You wrote this like a poem. Kudos.

Have you been to the US before?
I live in the US bro. A US citizen too.
17 years here now and have driven to more than 30 states in the US, so I know not all inter-state roads have multiple lanes. Many just have dual lanes like those in the pictures.
It's like that in Canada too as I've driven through many areas there from the US.

In sane and hitech countries, a busy and vital highway like Lagos-Ibadan will be minimum of 4 lanes on each side considering the high volume of vehicular movement plying it.

Well, kudos to the government for fixing it.

Not in every developed country. This is an inter-state road and most inter-state roads in even the US don't have that many lanes - except in the major cities where where local and inter-state travelers need vehicular access at same time.

I think thisis commendable as long as the maintenance culture is in the long-term plan.

Drug dealers have been operating even before Nigerian independence.
I don't think it has to do with the economic situation of the country, some humans are just naturally selfish.

Kidnappers continue to kidnap even with all the ransoms they have collected, armed robbers continue to rob even after all they have stolen. They are simply insatiable people that only feel sorry after they get caught and blame everything on the devil.

Even billionaires indulge in it to make more billions. Should we say the economy is affecting them too?

Some humans just can never be satisfied, hand some of them all the money here on Earth, they will still look for ways to go to Pluto to look for more money.
