Well on that note you are right but they should brace up for impact when they get to wherever they are running to, because that 3M they threw away to migrate, they may spend the rest of their lives abroad and never have that 3M as savings at any giving point in their lives- FACT!

In America, more than 60% of the population do not have up to $5,000 as savings in their checking account and $5k is barely N1.5M

5,000? ABi500. Me i get ZeROhundred

ednut1:
i agree. By 2023 tinubu or eo rufia will lead us to our glory hohohohoho

Oko. Nigeria would be world power in 2023

Genevieve was not frustrated out of Oscar. The award category has rule which her movie didn't meet.
Let's get our fact right.

na so them they talk. Imagine the silly excuse, that it wasn't produced in igbo. I'm sure if it was they would have turned the tables on her. I know their game too well. Such is life.
But I don't wait on anyone. I do my thing my way.
She would always remain the Goddess of AfRiCan Cinema and in the world to come.

Kalixx:
How do you know she has money?

Who told u?

lol who told you?

Btruth:
No matter the condition, never allow the devil to have the last laugh over you. Though many situations give rises to depression, but better to be ashame for a while than taking your own life.

RIP to her.

The most painful one is seeing yourself where you never imagined you would be.
There was this white doctor that was saying that west africans (who travel out and migrate often) have the propensity to develop mental illness in theIr teens. Dont know where he got his theory from and I don't see him as RaCist, but. He got it wrong.
It's the over expectation one places on achieving in a Developed country. Maybe suffering there onend when you think the experience is meant to be euphoric.
You see yourself in a place You never imagined you would be, you don't even get close to half of that or make any headway. What do you think would happen to that person's psyche.? It happens worldwide where people see their lives falling apart.
But it's deeper for one leaving their fatherland, esp a 3rd world country and high expectations are placed on you. Being around unsupportive people who would never appreciate anything good you do.

PETUK:
I was actually quoting someone who said that lack of love can make one commit suicide, lack of fulfilment can make someone commits suicide, lack of Companionship can make someone commits suicide, drugs addiction can make someone commits suicide

SoRRy if you feel i went OverBOaRD

Ayilara1:
Just to tell you happiness is not how much you have but how well you can do without.

May we not be depressed, but I always feel one of the reason why people commit suicide is due to the lack of understanding of the purpose of life.

When we neglect God, we begin to lose our understanding of the purpose of life.

ExaCtly, I may be depressed. But lay hold on life and it shall be, thy joy and CRown, eternally

My mother in law said to me “Never allow anyone to talk down to you in life”

It’s sad that she choose this route only salvation can give you hope in the desserts of life

A lot of people may not like you or even threaten your life but the best revenge is an honorable life

My thoughts and prayers with her family

Quality friends are everything

Your 3RD PaRaGRaph is life. HaPpySunDay

When One transitions from life into GlORy.
I always use the Analogy of a Plane taking off the terminal. The feeling of that Chilling sound and vibration.

Eagleboney:
U are right but some of them see it as an act of bravery

That is what you and I need to change.
Those schools of thought making people see it as such. Calling life an illusion like they do and all that. God carefully mapped out and planned each of our lives. There is no Replacement of you and there never would be.
There are walks here and stuff to end suicide, but they never involve God and the Holy Spirit. I wonder why. It's like emptying water in a basket. I'm here On Nairaland to change lives. Of course in a very slight way. Not going to jump on the closest person next to me and devour them.

A Simple song of holy spirit lord of light and miracles could start happening.
No church is perfect. We just need to balance things.
I strongly believe in the Catholic prayers but at the same time very ChaRismatic&pentecoastalized or protestanttialized.

victorian:
You are so right .
Kim is tough no matter what she went through in life, romantically and publicly but shes still waxing stronger and going nowhere.
I love her resilient spirit.




Dont ever give up on yourself no matter what!

I have gone through hell and back! Nothing and no one can make me kill myself God forbid. The least i will do is cry, wipe my tears and move on.

RiGht! The day my Child was born, I saw the face of God. There is nothing as PReCious as the Gift Of life and bringing it forth . My mother named her "OGheneRo- God exits, Chukwudi..

I made my promise to God to provide and always be there for her, leading her on the right path. Emotionally, psychologically, financially, I would be there for her. Then the most important is our duty as parents . God Gave us the task to lead our children in his way. The path to everlasting life, GlORy & Salvation. The most painful thing that would ever happen to me is for my child to lose her SOUl.

I hate seeing people go through so much Pain. Especially little Children. If God blesses me, I would use my power to feed the hungry, treat the sick, improve Quality of life etc. We may not be able to give all what we have in our bank Accounts, but let's help in the little way we can.
Since there are a lot of accusations and counter accusations these days concerning money and foundations, why don't the philanthropists go out of their way to buy raw materials like food and clothing to give out to people? Buy hospital equipments and drugs, etc.. Rather than shying away from helping due to fear of falling for scams.

edem10:
What if the person is a psychologist and also an atheist -Obviously he/she had acquired his knowledge through LEARNING. If the victim is religiously fanatical, would he/she rather die than open up to the expert whose capable of diagnosing and possibly render help to him/her?

I can open up to a worldly psychologist as religious as I am. Remember God says not to judge.
I only meant that God is the source of everything good. So its that good nature in man which God has bestowed on us that would make the psychologist want to save lives in the first place.

You are misunderstanding me. Im not saying the doctor must be a christian and i do not encourage religious fanatism. My major concern is pointing out that everything in life All boils down to reconnecting with our creator. What he/she's doing is good as a psychologist and I believe in professionalism. But don't you think it would be a feather on the hat and icing on the cake if we add God to it?

Horus:
Suicide Is the most foolish thing a person can ever do. Look at the millions of people who are suffering more than you: What is it that you are hankering for in life? Are you hankering for love? Attention? Money? Pleasure? What is it that you are hankering? These hankerings are boiling desires, and they are creating this foolish idea inside you to commit suicide

I always look at myself. Things are not so Rosy now, but I had the opportunity to travel abroad. I was so fortunate that my parents could pay for i and my siblings tuition here. We didn't have to school and work. The good is always more than the bad. Whenever such thoughts come to me, I say get behind me satan. I think of my brothers and sisters at home in nigeria who May not have been half as lucky as me and my siblings. Many die in the Mediterranean Sea in the means to travel for GReenerPastures. My heart bleeds for them. Everyday I think of them. Every night I dream of them. I promise to make them proud in my sojourn in the foreign land.

irunoko:
no! That's a myth.the real reason is

DEPRESSION

Depression is not a respecter of beauty, social status, wealth or fame.it can happen to anybody.

Let's be more loving, empathetic and understanding towards our friends, neighbors, colleagues and family members.people are going through a lot .if you cannot offer money or solution to a person's problems, the least you can do is to be kind.there are too many foul mouthed people at work, home, church and social media forming savage when they're actually broken people without realising that it's not everyone that has emotional stamina
..

mine is two opposites. When i wake up from sleep my emotional stamina is down sometimes. The work of Satan. That's why I go to bed and wake up with prayers. The Devil attacks people most at their vulnerable hour. Which is, When they are alone and asleep. Most importantly, an idle mind is the devil's workshop.

Neoteny:
Most people in advanced countries don't commit suicide because of material hardship.

Psychological illness, relationship woes, malaise, depression...

But they are always telling other people they are mad when you don't fit into their system. How far? Especially when you are poor and black and make a mistake in your utterances (I supposedly mean for a reasonably educated person at that), even though you are rather calm. MaDness don set for you.
I knew knew knew they are the ones who are insane and dying in need of help. That's why they are very quick to refer to others as that. Just as one who is always quick to throw insults shows the poor state of their mind.

Perfecttouchade:
Suicide reach that side too? No matter what it is, taking your life is not the answer to that terrible situation you found yourself

That's what I'm saying. As terrible as life is. It doesn't just cut the Cake to end it.

Family have abandoned me. Hunger. My ChildRen taken away. I'm the only one gusting in the wind.
But I'm still here.
I won't even say no hope for tomorrow, because when or once there is life there is hope. As far as you are breathing, God is not done with you.

We have no idea how we created ourselves. Same way and likewise, we owe our existence to our creator. This is basic ReSPeCt.

Viking007:
Nigerians are just cowards. We too dey fear. Forget it, if death was easy alot of Nigerians would have committed suicide. Do a census just on Nairaland for the number of Nigerians that have ever considered suicide. The stats will shock you.

even if it was just a pill, I won't take it.

PETUK:
1. Lack of love: to hell with love I dey street
2. Lack of Companionship: When i have phone and data? Come on man.
3. Drug addiction? Weed is life.
4. Lack of fulfilment: Hmmmmmm when i have money?

"Love " is a bRoad, vague, and ambiguous word. Depends on context.

What if one can't afford phone and data?
When I cannot afford internet, I simply reflect on God's Word and read the bible.
He is there, but takes time to do everything. The key is Patience.
Remember that slowGeeky friend who takes time to do everything but always delivers in the end?

Brother, I discovered weed is light and we can even cope without it. But here's ComPRomise or AveRaGes, I'm Glad you stuck to natural, since some people take it overboard. So I won't out rightly bash or condemn it.

No matter how bad things are, every human being has a sense of fulfilment. God put it in us. We were created for a purpose.
People get it wrong saying, "what I want to do with my life". It's wrong. It's actually, "What God wants us to do with our lives".

The Bible says, cursed is the one who places his trust in man. I've been around the world and seen it all. Been very stubborn. For me to get to this, you have to Believe. Man Can Disappoint but God Cant. Even as things seem to go Downhill.

Let there be Peace On earth

edem10:
Beautiful girl just gone like that.. so pathetic... I will say and keep saying that suicide is not an antidote to depression. Open up to someone.. ease your burden. Life is no Nintendo game.

I've been a worldly person. I discovered God is the answer. That thing in the person you would actually open up to guide you is actually from God's SouRCe.

nograv:
You are better person than me my sister. But you are right one should learn to forgive..

Thank you for your good message on a sunday. God bless you..

God bless you and your family too.
HaPpySunDay, my brother

daHcKR:
What if she made the decision due to an event probably leading to the loss of these things you mentioned. The loss of something once gained leads to unexplainable decisions made.

Though, my respect to every Nigerians no matter the shit storm we have been through.. Our 'mi o le wa Ku' always stands...

I'm telling you. It's not worth it. Even if it's just the weird feeling that creeps in with the haves when all is present and the going is good. Because it's shocking, people still feel down, depressed and suicidal when they have everything good.
Then even when things go wrong, I know God is there and exists. He works in ways we cannot see. He will make a way where there seems to be no way.
No matter how SCaRy life gets, just hold on
As life dey beat ki, kpa, Gbos me. I just stay one place dey tellam, yes ma, yes sir. Tell Devil say, I'm not going Anywhere. With the GRACE of God, . It would be difficult to preach this to an unbeliever who doesn't have the presence of the Holy Spirit.

nograv:
Why is the death of an Indian of interest to me??

The same people who treat our people worse than dogs..

Mtcheww Nigerians and inferiority complex.. sha

Yes, they kill our brothers, but let's pardon and forgive them. I have been personally affected by their acts but chose to move on.

chimhigher:
If only beauty can be exchanged she for just give my babe her beauty then to hell with her. Whoever commits suicide has no love for anything and doesn't deserve any pity

I'm not supporting her. But you are Quite harsh.
It Could happen to anyone. Make we dey boast small sometimes. Please, Let's show each other mercy even though we think they don't deserve it.
I know you are a nice guy. You just feel upset about selfish people always wanting to have their way even up to the extent of taking their own life in order to escape worldly tussles. could be the reason for your outburst.
This reminds me of the passage in the bible that implies the extreme of one going out of their way to protect their own life may end up losing it.
As I get older and on becoming a mother, I have began to realise that the Bible is the perfect guide to all things. In there, God gave all answers to our questions. This is coming from the very inQuisitive type.

People call me all sorts of names for my stand on life and being a living Saint. I have dropped everything worldly. The only thing I haven't been able to overcome is my freak for fashion which drags me close to hell and soils my prayers.

Sorry for my talk talk

Eagleboney:
Money : she get am
fame : she get am
beautiful looks: she get am
whats her reason for committing suicide now,this type of suicide report dey tire me,That why I salute Nigerians, upon all the hardships suicide is rare here, unlike peaceful and rich countries like Japan and co who have more suicide rate than Nigeria,
RIP to the dead though

I don't like encouraging these stereotypes and thought processes. But based on percentages and stats, I would say you are right.

vincentjk:
Who knows if she also committed suicide due to lack of enough Instagram likes

Rip to the dead btw

I've had my account on Facebook and instagram cleared, losing valuable memories and info. I didn't blink. This is coming from a Die hard show freak.

CautiOn: I'm going to say something that would make me look Paranoid rn. They probably thought I would kill myself to make things easy for them to claim my children. They lost. The more they try to break me, the more God gives me the willpower to live!

ignis:
Suicide is never a solution

Good. Thanks for going straight to the point unlike some people posting insensitive comments on here.
It's always a horrible deal to take one's life even as many are saying it is her time.

careytommy37:
If you check very well... na because of man probably blackmailing her with maybe nude pics or videos

Many people have released my nudes and I didn't stress. Not because im wayward. To show and prove that its really not the end of the world. Just so people like this dont Overthink & OveReaCt . Because I noticed the average person likes blowing things out of proportion and doesn't mind their business . I always bone them.

Lynx001:
y she no go commit suicide. when indian movies be lyk. sejal why have you not washed plates. Answer me nw.
mother:answer ur father why have you not washed them. before she will reply. sejal you have lost ur respect. Are out of ur mind. Nw grandma and i want to knw why you have not washed plate.

CReative. But too sensitive and Quite an expensive joke, considering what happened to her

GOVERNMENTBOY20:
If anyone has the right to commit suicide in this life, it's Kim Kadhashian... Yet she didn't.

There is no such thing as bad publicity.

You mean the tapes weren't released with her permission?

FrLukas:
A third party company holds Nigeria's passport database.

Lol.

So that means the third party company can fvck shit up for Nigeria if they so wish?

Is this even a country at all?

I don't even know whether to laugh or cry.

I thought innovate services was for those getting or obtaining passport outside nigeria
