Travel / Why Some Nigerians Hate Living In Canada by ModestGal(f): 11:56pm On Nov 23, 2022 |
Share your reasons for not liking Canada As for me, I love love Canada, its my dream home,my heaven. But many Nigerians living here do not like Canada and are usually complaining. In this post, I will highlight the reasons some Nigerians dislike living in Canada 1. Extroversion: Some people hate Canada because they are extroverts, quite understandable. There is less noises, people mind their businesses, you can't easily make friends with the opposite sex, (awon set,, bestie of life). Everyone is busy in Canada and thus extroverts do not really like it in here (They want people they will be wasting time together,lol). Extroverts derive their energy from being out meanwhile introverts derive their energy from being indoor, more like refilling a gas,one refills indoor, the other refills outdoor with friends. Alot of Nigerians are extroverts and thus, doesn't like their inability to go out and have fun in Canada 2. Canada is very cold and dark: Winter is very cold and lots of people don't like the cold weather. It also goes dark by 5:00PM which makes going out a little difficult . The coldness could lead to frostbites, a condition that can get the arm or legs forever destroyed 3. Mothers with kids: Another set of people that may not like living in Canada are mothers. I drop my cap for mums with 2,3,4 children. It is a big job to raise children in this country. Cooking, cleaning, and going to work is not easy. In Nigeria, it is easy for you to drop your children with neighbors, have other children come play with your children and the children get occupied but here, none of that is possible. There's no cousin, mother in law, they can spend the holiday with. You can't leave theem at home for 1sec, you can't tell a neighbor to hold their hands to school, you do all your work by yourself. I know you will think, "eehn what is there" Something is there sir/ma, during winter, you dress up for them, especially if they are below 5years old. This dressing up for them can take significant amounts of time,upto 30min per child, they will have to wear 10cloths because of the cold weather, bath them, wear socks for them etc and you will do thesame for yourself as well. This takes holy amount of time Another reason is that most Nigerian mothers had 10maids in Nigeria..... That was a joke, but sincerely speaking,most Nigerians in Canada were doing well in Nigeria and thus, could afford maids, what I term slavery. And the maids work round the clock, but here in Canada, if you want maids, you will not only pay minimum wage but you also cannot belittle or talk to them anyhow. This makes their lazy asses to be frustrated. There is one aunty, I am praying her process should become successful,she has 3maids in Nigeria,she does absolutely nothing,but still complains she's stressed,lol. I can't wait for her to land in Canada, the suffer,she go suffer ehn. 3. Racism (Pronounced and Subtle): Racism makes some hates it here, structural barriers etc. 90% of racism in Canada is subtle, quiet, smiling which could seriously impact the of the victims 4. Bus system: The bus system is very slow, especially when you don't live in Toronto. In Nigeria, it is easy for you to pick up a bus and start moving, but here, you will have to wait in the cold weather to board a bus. This could delay your trip for upto 1hour. If you mistakenly miss a bus, then your journey is delayed for more hours. 5. Men: This is the part I love the most . In Nigeria, iphones, Cars, Jobs are what men use to entice females due to high unemployment rate in the country,many of our girls would fall for these things and agree to date them or sleep with them. But here in Canada, everyone has access to all these things, this is where equity comes in, a man has no advantage over a female, thus, females get jobs as much as men, and guess what, they can afford everything a man can afford. Your "iphones" everyone has it, your "cars", everyone can afford one, your "designer wears", it is right in the store opposite their house, your beautiful "homes", every house is beautiful, you live in "Lekki, Banana island, Ikoyi" everywhere is developed and anyone can live anywhere, you are "well educated", school is free in Canada and you will even be paid while in school, tell me why the girls would stoop low to date you? Everyone is classy and can wear good cloths. This frustrates Nigerian men alot because they do not have access to their sexual escapedes with innocent girls anymore and might become depressed due to that Nigerian men are sexually spoiled,and are preys to innocent girls with either bad education, parenting, religious doctrines that preaches favours, grace and thus when they meet predators, their subconscious would think, ooh, this is the grace and favor I have been praying for. In here, sleep with a girl who is not fully consensual and end your life in jail. You can't practice all the rubbish you practice in Nigeria with girls here, sleeping with university students for grades, sleeping with under 18, or molesting females in your street, deceiving girls to sleep with them, luring a girl with money, all she has to do is report you. In addition, many husbands in Nigeria cheats and not only go away with it but the society will still blame the innocent wife for her husband cheating, words like, you don't cook well for him, you don't give him enough sex bla bla bla but here, cheat and your wife would leave or start a divorce which could take a hit on men's mental health You can't impregnate a lady and have them abort it, or abandon them, so many Nigerian males have a child somewhere that they will never take care of, but here, like it or leave it, you will pay for 18 good years. 29 Likes 6 Shares |

Romance / This Is The Reason I Am Not A Wife Material by ModestGal(f): 9:49pm On Nov 19, 2022 |
I read a post about how males like girls that are wife materials and that prompted me to write this post I grew up in a loving family where everyone is a good cook except me including the boys As an original Oyo girl, Right from JSS1, my parents and grandma's would tell me how a woman should know how to do housechores and cook well, since that's a way to a man's heart. Since that time, my mum and siblings tried their best to teach me how to cook,clean,do housechores etc but unfortunately,years and years after, I am unable to learn it I don't know how to clean or do housechores. I don't know how to do laundry as well. I can't boil ordinary water and 90% of time, when I plan to boil water to make Eba, I will burn the water. I have many younger ones that I was already10 years when they gave birth to them, now these girls usually tell me the quantity of salt to put in stew. That one is even worst, sometimes I wonder if magic is what many people use to put salt and maggi in foods because I can never learn that skill lailai. How on earth will I know the quantity of salt to put in several sizes of stew? Most times I cook without salt and maggi because I prefer my food to be tasteless than having too much salt. So I just tell myself that, girl, you are living a healthy lifestyle, you don't need salt. Or tell myself, maggi is cancerous and I enjoy my meals unless I have someone cook for me When it comes to taking care of home, I hate to fold and arrange cloths, so 99% of times, my room is scattered. I don't receive visitors and I usually tell people that my room is bad, but many of my friends would insist to come and once they are with me, they help me arrange my cloths Now, shebi since men naturally like wife material, im not supposed to find husband, so since secondary school, before I became a full blown feminist, I already told my mum that she should forget mee getting married, that home skills is not for me, each time she mentioned, you will not find husband if you continue like this But alas, na lie. I usually tell guys about myself, im very vocal and confident about my personality. I will tell men, friends or not,that I don't know how to cook, I don't know how to clean and I have anger problem, (I get angry at petty things), but most times, they wont believe me. They will come up with either im pretending not to have those skills, or they will give me excuses that its not my fault, and some will even offer to be my cook, lol. Regarding my temper, most of these guys would offer to take me for therapy Ands lastly,im evidently Ugly, and I will tell them that, im also ugly, we can't date, but nah, they will offer to take me to spar to treat my pimples, blackheads etcetera So my question is where are the guys looking for wife materials? Because I have never come across any guy who wants a wife material in real life except on social media I know girls like to compete amidst themselves of who cook the best, I seriously don't know why you girls do this because men don't care in real life. Infact, men dislike girls with those skills and I have seen many good home keeping girls that got their heart broken. Try and give yourself class and don't cook for any one nor allow yourself clean for any guy. As a female, we are a gift to humanity. And that's enough favor to men, the fact that we go to heaven and come back during childbirth just to bring a baby that both belongs to both of us to the world is enough favor. As a girl, don't marry a guy that doesn't know how to cook, clean,do laundry etcetra Right now,the reason im single is because im yet to find a guy with good cooking skills, most guys can only cook indomie. for no reason will I marry someone that wont be able to give me good foods despite me raising our kids. Please girls,stop lowering your standards, because men don't actually care. I mean men, not boys 3 Likes |

Travel / Why Do People Buy Expensive Phones? by ModestGal(f): 8:45pm On Nov 19, 2022 |
Hi guys, I wanna buy a new phone, but all i can think of is buy the cheapest Samsung Galaxy that would fit my need. I am buying a new phone because my Samsung has spoiled since last year, but I still use it that way. But presently,its affecting alot of things and its time for me to get a new phone. Many people can't reach my WhatsApp line and I have the habit of missing calls unworried . My plan is to buy same phone model, but can't seem to find it. Then I saw a new one which is also good which I plan to purchase. I went online to buy and I saw a trade in of my phone that would get me a more expensive one for a cheaper price(800) which the original price is $1200. My friend just got a new Samsung phone as well which is very slick and she has been telling me to buy it. I have 3people on my neck including my family members telling me to get a good phone. The problem I have is, I don't know why I should buy an expensive phone, I don't know why people buy it. I would justify the purchase of iphone due to its good Camera but I don't wanna buy iphone because I believe the company is a rip off, and I do not support ripoff companies and now the Samsung my friend got is same price with iphone 14. I don't take pictures with phones and I don't use picture social media likewise my friends that purchased iphones and the newest Samsung,they don't use social media but still went ahead to buy expensive phone Note*I can purchase anyphone including iphones. But I sincerely don't have justification to waste money. So please,why do people purchase expensive phone aside the slick appearance? 1 Like |

AlphaTaikun:Its just like you saying Nigerians are wealthy and citing examples of Adeleke,Adenuga,Dangote and using Banana island parties ass examples. They are truthfully rich but they are not upto 20% of Nigerians, because more than 80% of Nigerians are in abject poverty. One thing I love about Western countries is that they work with statistics. As at this moment, statistics still show that black people are the poorest in all Western Countries and they have the highest death and Crime rates. Talkess of Black Muslims or Nigerian Muslims. Immigrants still remain the poorest. That's what the data shows and even a blind man can easily see that Regarding thee examples you made, in your own thinking,if I should create a group, those people would be the one in the group right? Im a realist dear, if i create a Muslim black group now,i only would have people in shelter(Somalians) in the group. I understand you are hurt because you are a Muslim, but you need to grow out of trying to defend a group because you were naturally born in the group or because you choose the group. Muslims aren't doing WELL anywhere,its a fact. If you continue to deny the truth, you will not grow Personally, I don't have Muslim female friends and may never have because most of them don't have anything to offer than toxic competition, though its generally female things. Once a sister is religious, there's a high chance that the sis would be boring as hell when it comes to conversations. I'm religious but Im not boring and we still have many like myself but they are very very few because it's hard for me to find any. Nah,I don't wanna gossip about how some people would enter hell due to their chosen way of life all day 2 Likes |
