Not everywhere is 5C tho. Was the point of buying all that groceries n gifts when you'll be indoors. Like, they didn't even go to the cinema.

Most parts of the UK are too cold to be outside in December. Plus it's gloomy, what's the point?

Psalmy2cute:
She slapped him first, WhAts the deal??

I love how the western media never tell the whole story when it comes to domestic violence - it is usually reciprocal and typically initiated by the woman.

If he was assaulted first then there is no need to apologize. She should be the one to apologize.

Zeinymira:
It was a big cultural shock. It was dead street on the 25th. Everyone was inside

Would you want to be in the street when it's 5C outside?

Pubs shut?

Pubs used to open on xmas day in the UK, they could do a month's trade in one day.

I think i love this girl and i want to settle down with her this year.I saw her father who is in his 50s wearing stud/tiny earing yesterday crossover.is dis a red flag on the family?

A sign of what?

Of all the nonsense that Nigerians do why are you perturbed by a stud earing?

The real concern is that the man was in church, wetin man go find in church besides ashawo and fraudsters at the pulpit?

This obsession with marriage is mental illness personified.

What do you think will change about you or your life after you marry?

Saywhat10:
Street life in Africa is on another level.

It's the same nonsense everywhere.

Ibadan is full of people who grew tired of Lagos.

Abuja too.

Even Calabar sef.

I'm yet to hear one person say that they miss living in Lagos.

baralatie:
I suspect many of the Chinese travellers will be doing a lot of the same things that some Nigerians were doing .going to target countries to get COVID jabs

You think those that could weren't doing that already? As well as false papers claiming that they have received such?

You don't know these Chinese people. China is the counterfeit capital of the world, in all things.

OP is a LIAR.

Russians love blacks? Wetin this one done smoke for dat place?

gaby:
The day Nigeria progresses into a nation with the welfare of her citizens at the heart of its policies overall, you'd understand.

Just imagine a situation where you are assured of a job and timely pay as and when due, access to healthcare, and every other social amenity. And then to cap it all up, even when you aren't able to work, you have access to social welfare benefits.

My brother, the day majority of Nigerians working or not can just walk down to the next ATM at the end of each monthly cycle to make withdrawals of their salaries or stipend from the government, church businesses will become obsolete and relationships with religion will become personal and organic.

The current style of Christianity in particular is a result of "surrendering it all to God" since the government has failed in every aspect of caring for the citizens.

Humans have resigned to fate and hope endlessly for succor from supernatural forces or beings.

It is collective spinelessness. Rather than hold the wrongdoers to account they'd rather go and cower in the church and chant nonsense.

checkmatez:
The aim is to rewrite you and your generation history by starting a family(present and future) in a country where things work. Being a citizen that can be allowed to travel and interact with various developed nations without scrutinized visa application processes as a free being.
It's bigger than having wads of cash and investment in a declining country but shallow minds don't understand.

Who told you that you will not be scrutinized? As a black person you will still be scrutinized. Within your new country, even your children will be. But keep deceiving yourself. Maybe if more of you leave Africa it will become more manageable. Especially those of you who are intent on reaping where you did not sow.

Islam.

iHateFraudsters:
Whether white or black, it's still heartbreaking.

And why must the topic have to mention the colour of the person's skin?

You blacks are the ones Fuelling racism.

That's a lie if ever I heard one.

Sunak will be a disaster just as Macron has been. Two very bad examples.

Some inherited wealth is a curse.

Some parents are a curse.

Starzo:

It's your father's household that is useless

If any religious building should be scattered it Should be mosques who disturb everybody Early in the morning with their useless Allah kaboom shout

If I be governor, I go destroy all mosques

The mosques too. They are both equally useless.

Why are you throwing around personal insults over religious wahala? They disturb all of us.

I hope they do the same to all the useless churches that I see and hear everytime I'm in Lagos.

Their economy is hurting so now they really need to push for foreigners to keep their schools open.

Nonsense.

ecolime:

He's been retired already. When last have you heard from him since the APC primaries?

Don't wine with the devil dem no go hear. APC will use and dump you.

Where are the likes of Rochas, Umayi, Akpabio, etc. today?

Akpabio

Mrkumareze:
Naija, a country where the law is meant for the poor.

That's evely country.

The law is meant to maintain the status quo.

Good.

I hope they request the same from all those civil servants fleecing the government of forex for their needless travel.

See the nonsense the authorities there waste their time on.

Meanwhile the rape of children under the guise of religious marriage goes on unquestioned.

Abokistan.

Gift96:
what kind of weak men do we have nowadays

Ones raised by women.

Female civil servants are just as crooked as their male counterparts.

Nothing I've seen in this life suggests that female governors will be any better than men but let them do the job so that we can see the truth.

The problem isn't the gender but the cultural norms that the governors perform under. The women are not excluded from that culture.

Of course they are.

They are ones who wish to take out obscene amounts of currency for nefarious reasons.

The issue I have is why do these people need to told something that is clearly common sense?

ogbonti:



The bolded parts says all everyone reading your response needs to know about you

YOU LACK SENSE, full stop!

A man whose salary is not more than N20 million a year (state Governor in Nigeria) which is $30,000 dumps $5 million in a bank in your country (USA/UK) and you think they are so dumb not to know it’s proceeds off corruption ?

The first time I walked into a dealership in California to buy my own personal car (what i was using was my Uncle’s car for years) - I wanted to pay cash for it - $23,000 and walk away a toyota camry brand new, the dealership manager advised me against it stating while it is not illegal to pay cash, but it will raise flags about me and trigger IRS to continually investigate me - I told him I earned it, i saves it and i can prove it with my paychecks and bills and bank direct deposits from my earnings - he still told me - well don’t just pay cash at once - u can just make lump payments over 6 to 9 months and that will be ok

This is for $23,000 car oooo - they system puts checks there to ensure it’s not proceeds from drugs or money laundering because I am a US citizen and I live in the US - so why should anyone just transfer millions of dollars from a dirt poor country from Africa with no means of business or career than just being a politician and the west turns a blind eye to it if not complicity ?

you are daft you can’t even understand evidence when it’s presented to you because you want to just argue for arguing sake


in one line you oppose me, in another line you contradict yourself

yeye fawo

The fact is that the system you speak of relies upon the stupidity of Africans and other so-called 3rd World nations.

Yes, you will be queried about a measly $23k but they can bring in millions of dollars, no questions ask with no investigation. That is because even before the money touches down in Yankee they know it's coming and how these crooks came by that money. If they so wanted they could prove that it was by corrupt/criminal means and sometimes they do but most of the time they choose to turn a blind eye.

Europeans being Europeans at all times.

Trash people display trash behavior.

What is new?

Gerrard59:


Bros, this japa thing has to do with Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs, so I don't understand your criticisms. Let people go and earn what they can earn and experience a functioning society. BTW, this same abroad you are lambasting, you have lived there for ages and possess the passport. So, why the antagonism? It is not like these teachers are illegal migrants. If e tire them just like e tired you, they will return to Nigeria.

Migration is as old as mankind.

Migration is as old as mankind but so is developing and improving your surroundings. Why do these self-proclaimed "intelligent" Africans do one but not the other?

You talk about "earn what they can earn", well once they've paid all their bills and seen almost half of their income removed for taxes they will find that they have very little and for those of them who have children it will be even worse, they have less than nothing. This is something that British people have come to realize a long time ago, hence the demographic collapse that they are now facing.

You mention Maslow's hierarchy of needs. Well, here's another surprise awaiting those who think that Japa is the solution to all ills - many of those needs will not be met abroad. I've heard it said how lonely north America is but Europe is just as bad, especially a place like the UK where people are so hostile to others.

I don't think you understand that when you leave for many of these places you are leaving for a cauldron of bitterness and hatred. The British showed what kind of people they are when they elected to leave the greatest trading bloc in human history out of hatred for their own immediate neighbors, yet Africans have somehow told themselves that the UK is a good place to live. Na wa for you.

haryomikun:


This is seriously thoughtful. I hope I can see an answer to this

You won't see an answer from any of the "Japa by all means" crowd because they don't understand any of these places that they're looking to run to.

The UK has a demographic problem that can now only be solved by importing clueless, spineless Africans. The people there are not having enough children because the cost of living and thus the level of stress is insanely high. But let Africans tell it the UK is paradise and Africa has nothing good and is not worth developing.

xperiencelove:
If you do a legit business with huge funds, learn how to use digital money.
I know beforehand that fraudsters and money lunders will find this policy hard on them and they will pay those useless media houses to publish lies about it.

Fraudsters are the first ones to learn to use technology, usually. They have been using transfer and cryptocurrency to move money around for years. It's the rest of society that is dragging their feet.
