Abi rice Monday to Friday
Saturday beans
Sunday early morning b4 church bread and tea
Dem don swear for Nigeria

Rice was so common, even kids in public schools whose parents give money for breakfast, buy rice from [i]mama put [/i]on their way to school

Lagos do not have a Sunday rice tradition, it is eaten all days of the week while I was growing up in Lagos.

MeetDx:
It's always like that; just like slave trade! The blame will always be on our leaders.

Mobility of labour, move to where your skills are more appreciated and better paid for.

Chipink:
Hmmm.. im really ? hearing this for the first time ooh

What job role, were you hoping to get with that degree, after graduation?

ReluctantAdult:
Wow!

That's absolute determination. Some double0h7 stuff! Badass!

Just don't give up on yourself, when it feels and seems others have gone too far ahead....start.

Inspiring.

I have a Nigerian colleague who up to 2017 at age 38, had only her SSCE.

Today, she has B.A Psychology (3yrs), Msc. Clinical Child Psychology (1yr) and would be enrolling for her Professional Doctorate in 2026 while presently working as a Neurodevelopmental Assessment Practitioner.

She gave it her 200%.

It was cheaper to have flown them back to Kano after the sports festival rathe, they were packed into aa bus travelling through the night.

MeetDx:
Na their way. They will not about the engineers and doctors they stole from us.

No one stole anyone, from you.

They are really cashing out, big time.

Kudos to them.

At her age, she is still fixated on Bianca.

What a sad life being lived.

Kaykaychizzy:
Good morning everyone.
Please this question is directed to those in the UK 🙏.
I was about sending accommodation fees to a landlord in the UK, but my bank requires his IBAN number which the landlord said he doesn't have or rather, they don't use it in the UK. Now, I'm skeptical of sending him the money through a naira account he wants to give me for the payment.
I told him that I'm ready to pay for 2-3 months rent upfront when I arrive. He didn't agree at first but just today, he said no problem on my request.
I have never met him before and I wanted to ask those already living in the UK if they believe or think this is real or am I falling into the wrong hands?
Please someone knowledgeable with such should kindly assist me to understand this situation and if I have nothing to worry about.

Thanks ✌️

Don't pay anyone until you physically view the accommodation.

Nice one, well deserved for the focus and efforts.

Chipink:
So its difficult to secure work with International business and management msc ?

That course will not get you a skilled worker visa sponsored job...those I know who studied it, ended up with care jobs, which is even now difficult to get.

Don't waste your money.

"WAEC also announced that candidates sponsored by state governments whose examination fees remain unpaid will not have their results released until the outstanding fees are fully settled by their sponsors"...
Funds budgeted for it, has been misappropriated with no consequence.

Very commendable.

Let it motivate the younger ones coming up and Imo state government investing well in sports development in the state.

And the Lagos State government kept quiet, watching them build estates without approvals.....this is wild!

Very fast decision and very appropriate....let her speak from Gaza.

She truly deserves the award, won same in 2023...what a talent!

I usually hate how people respond to posts like this because they’ll just assume it’s show off and refuse to take the message in it. So here goes nothing

But I visited Nigeria last month with my family and over the course of 14 days I spent several several MILLIONS (I won’t even state the number to avoid unnecessary analysis) just to have the BASIC standard of living we’re used to. It wasn’t luxury at all in my opinion.

So I’m imagining how someone who’s not earning 1 million monthly is faring. Last I checked majority of Nigerians are not earning over that. Literally everything cost as much or more than it would in America.

They just changed everything and only cater to the rich and powerful now it seems. How are the average people surviving?

I hate when they try to use patriotism and love of country to make people accept a bad situation as if it’s normal. Nigeria seems to be the only country that charges the US dollar equivalent of items without the income of its citizens matching those prices.

That brand of "patriotism" cannot airbrush the harsh reality of the daily lives of the overwhelming majority of Nigerians in Nigeria struggle with.

You are even talking about how people not earning up to one million naira monthly, when the Finance Minister, said the attached .

No one can gaslight me into normalizing bad situation.

Running to what?😂😂😂

Certainly not me, comfortable with my dream job and the quality of life, where I am.😎

Daniello25:
Wao...
Congratulations to them!!!
But Shey their father no get male child ni? But all the same shaaa...
Their father will be so proud of them...

Make I just find one of them pregnant lasan...

Lobatan...

Not all pregnancy leads to childbirth, intentionally or unintentionally.

This Arabambi is high on expired antipsychotics!😂😂😂😂

While we have a Governor with learning difficulty, stumbling through governance with arrogance.

Skills related to children here in the UK, is a very sure bet as I work in Children services and many councils are regularly recruiting, offering sponsorship.

Tareq1105:
I don't believe that woman. She's a serial liar.

You don't need to believe her, immigration eventually gave her back her passport and she travelled out of Nigeria, while you await the Nigeria Immigration Service to release a press release, that it didn't happen.

Internally Generated Revenue, is what is on their mind.

Softmirror:
Ok

Cool.😎

Softmirror:
Yes it will.

So, encourage your villagers to pray and fast for it, as their access to quality health care services is tied to it.

Softmirror:
She should also stand by her right by showing us her evidence.

After she "shows" you, the poor state of your village health centre, will be upgraded.

Softmirror:
Tinubu is not a dictator. That is good news.

Let him be whatever he wants to be....Natasha stood by her right and got her passport released. That is all that matters.

"She was told that the leadership of the National Assembly requested that she be considered a flight risk and placed on a watch list,”......Akpabio and his delusions.
