Why does this Monkey detest Nigerians so much?

you mean mi ?

Roon9:
Hmmm... They should be asking for our nl account name. Someone like bbqgrillz and co would be banned for life from ever setting foot in their country

You ehn rotfl . The guy right? What of mi?

salford1:
You still don't get it. You were talking about arrangee or something along that line. That post may earn you a ban (suspension of your Nairaland account) for encouraging such.

I'm not encouraging it. I'm SORry. It's what I was told . I warned and stated clearly it was extremely dangerous.

I'm sorry. It's what I was told

emddi:
I won't be emigrating from Nigeria because of economic purposes or the current state of the nation.
What I really want to do in this world has a lot to do with the USA.
No matter what parameters Mr Donald Trump might employ,I will still migrate to the US...
legally

nice. You mean Hollywood & TRanSRaCialism? MetOo

salford1:
You better edit this post before Justwise lock you up in Nairaland's prison.
You can see I didn't quote all your post to avoid getting banned too

I understand. I was airing out all my mind.

I almost left to Canada last year from Buffalo, new York to have my baby girl. but I couldn't leave one of my daughters behind in the U.S. I had no choice than to stay back.
I've been here for over a decade. Came at 14. Enrolled in one of those private schools. Got into college. Studied accounting, graduated and working.

omohlexy:
I am not going anywhere. I love Nigeria. We are the Giant of Africa and future world power after the third world war.

hmmn

ENG0701:
Lol. The countries mentioned have a transparent immigration policy unlike USA. There is no easy way to get PR in US unless you are a genius or you marry an american. That's why most Nigerians in USA are illegal.

What do you mean by pr?
liberals and progressives do a good job in helping to fight for rights of the immigrant. But they always shy away from trying to actually help an immigrant out in case of marriages. They automatically think you are trying to steal from them and have ulterior motives. Half help better pass one, let me manage.
And do they still actually accept geniuses? You no see how them frustrate Genevieve for ordinary OSCAR?

Youngzedd:
Hmm, Australia and Sweden are top feminists countries.


Hehehe, those women will show you pepper. Don't go there and form 9ja ninja because na jail you go kiss las las.

Those women got no chill.

naija ninja?? ROtfl

majamajic:

What of food

picoba:
Good write-up. Thanks slot for this information.
It is high time for me to relocate from Northern part of Nigeria to the place where l can sleep with no sound of gun.

and shout shout

berrystunn:
60% of Nigerians leaving abroad are useless.


30% do come home.
10% do live large over there ,they don't come around.

If you know you know.

My brother say he would retire at 75 and come home to be a lecturer

Emperor4tune:
all this listed countries where modernised to such standard by men & women who determined to put their brain power to work,i tell you even the future generation will be proud of their land,running away from my father land due to incompetence leadership & poor scaling mated on the masses by a corrupt system of governance will profit me nothing,the next generation may likely suffer & there may be obviously no country someday they will call their own...we are in tough moment & it will only take tough men to survive the land.there is hope 4 my father land & i have a dream that someday many will admire Nigeria all over the world & choose it a paradise destination,ARISE COMPATRIOT WE MUST DEFEND OUR LAND NOW OR WE LOOSE IT COMPLETELY TO OUR COMMON ENEMIES

I Could have returned home. But the fear of my children starting from scratch when they return to the states is my major problem. I mean people get fortunate enough to use means and money from home to finance abroad doings, but it may never be enough. What about mortgage and owning a house or property which is very important? How many would get there
That. And other dreams of being in film school and going to Hollywood.

RaptorX:
No security officer or gardener abroad earns more than a Nigerian MD, you people should stop deceiving impressionable gullible young people.

The ones earning more than mds must be really upscale and specially trained. PRobaBly working for Queen an white aus

Ijeleigbo:
U.K no follow abeg! The economy is in a mess most especially now they would be leaving EU towards ending of this month

Can you explain further if you dont mind? I've been too lazy to Research about this BRexit thing. I would also love it from a NiGeRian's perspective.

Cutehector:
The plan

Travel to India to get baptized with serious IT skills


Go to any of these countries listed as skilled worker ..

Guy (Y) Double Peace Sign for u

sonnie10:
If you travel to stay, you are the biggest fool ever

people may bash you but you are right in a sense

justlikedat:
This is just the bitter truth. If you have not migrated you will not appreciate this fact.

You must be TRANSFINANCIAL

RaptorX:
Anything the average Nigerian tells you about abroad is from hearsay or just outright misinformation. And people will quit very good upwardly mobile jobs to go to this countries based on misinformation and ignorance about easy money abroad.

You are RiGht. Once you are earning more than 100,000k naira and the future seems bright, please don't migrate. Unless you have splendid contacts for a very good job here

SuyaEater:
Stay in your country and build it.

Suya eater. I Sight you there. How things? My daughter has a thing for suya

Tantolu:
For Christ sake please erase this mentality,because as long as you have it,opportunities will continue to elude you.

Even within Nigeria there's social class racism.I used to be of same mentality,Please trash it!

lol I love this. You mean Social Class Discrimination

Odobaone:
Some people go pour out their plan Brekete here now forgetting there are village pipu here too. Good luck but am remigrating To Naija. Naija sure pass

I understand what you are saying. But this is a faceless forum.

Lawalemi:
Nice info. But about how much should be budgeted for relocation.

Besides, what would you recommend for the so called 'unskilled immigrants'?

Hi there! Check where I Responded to the comment above yours ^ ^

Enwhen:
NICE ONE GOD BLESS U

Abeg still help us find out the cost of those countries , mostly for those of us who are traveling abroad to go hurstle , weds Na to dey barf dead body self we mind as long as the money , dollars come out weda small or big , e beta pass the richest Yahoo Yahoo in Nigeria thank u... Pls don't mind my pidgin English, Na until I leave Nigeria , I go stop to dey speak am, even in my place of work Na pidgin I dey speak cos I no send anybody and Nigeria no deserve English language....thank you

You Can connect with other nigerians abroad wherever you decide to relocate to . If they are unlucky in helping you find a job from scratch, you can always post and find something on Craigslist that won't require anything or documentation. People see it as low end with a lot of scams, but it never fails. One can get something doing quick. You just have to try to weed out the fakes.
Because if you wait on company's websites and indeed{Other SeConDaRyJoBPORtals}, you may end up getting nothing.

Though they may try to exploit you, especially if you tell them you don't have documents to work. At least, half bread is better than nothing.
Always remain in a city or largely populated area,. Things are cheaper and more economical. Immigration is less likely to harass you there.
There are many places one can rent a room to stay under the cover, if you speak to your employer and they don't offer you one.
I could have suggested you post it as a topic here i.e. trying to look for jobs in one's location overseas, but I don't know how many diasporans in one's location would view.
You can try assylum applications, but they are OveRwhelming.
I like oyibo people a lot, don't get me wrong. But chances are, if you run marriage things with your fellow nigerian, things should be smoother as said party or partner would be more compassionate towards your plight (who knows, maybe their parents went through same) compared to an average citizen, -even though they form to be liberal.
If you earn a lot, you can start saving for their school so you use that to secure better employment.
#TheStRuGGleContinues.
I wish you all the BeStDeaR, and have you all and your families in my pRayers.

biGDhAp:
lol at the grandmajoinsbadgang . she had no option , she had your best interest at heart, there are things in life that happens that makes one set religion aside . it's going to be alright. you should make a thread on this though

Someone was complaining the other time on Nairaland that marriage pre-wedding pics have reduced and the majority of the few that make it there don't end up getting married.

linearity:
Like you indicated, it all depends...If the 9ja men is looking to marry a Nigerian woman because of compatibility, then it is okay and who say you can't find an AA or white or another girl of a different race, whom you may be compatible with.

But, if the reason is an expectation that; you want a Nigeria girl simply because the other race are too wise; and you want to receive the exact same treatment your mom gave your father back in Nigeria and you expect the wife to conform and behave exactly how women back in Nigeria behaves....then you will have a rude awakening...that is why Nigeria women are chasing their husband away from the house in TX, MD, etc....the guy thought he got the village fool, sooner or later she will wise up and trust 9ja, having discover that new found power, they will abuse it....you will regret using that yardstick as a marriage criteria and would have gone for the AA....some even kill themselves.

My point is, when in Rome don't be surprise that, everyone would tend to behave like Romans, so have that baked into your decision of who to marry either a 9ja village girl, a city girl or an AA or white....at least if na AA or a white woman that is your wife drive you comot from house, you go understand and your buddies go understand, if you gist them...they will say at least she does not know the culture, etc......but if na 9ja woman....bros edey pain well well....and most people will not understand and some will even blame you.

fire on brother, I personally can never hurt my fellow nigerian. I can't even do it to a white because it would be seen as an act of RaCism. I just stay away from their cases, reports and whatever GBRUgbru.

You forgot there's also nigerian American that grew up here from age 5 , those that were born here, those that came from age 15, etc. Those are the hybrid people like us you have to really discuss about. My type of hibernation dey very special. At the beginning of ADOLESENCE, my brother, it's another struggle entirely. Very Difficult. It's God that saved me those years. I was just angry , bitter and In search of answers.
Most of my friends from high school came in their 20's so they couldn't relate with my struggles.

donstan18:
Mumu girl

am i and yahoo girl?

biGDhAp:
. Rest assured there're swams of decent guys out there , I guess you probably not looking in the right places. but still, you can do what you think is best for you, no judgement here.. are you like a single mom or something??

Yes. I have 4¤¤¤¤DauGhTeRs. They are white.
I'm in a place like new York city, too many liberals who don't believe in raising a home.
Most conservatives on the other hand like sticking within their own circle of people.
People waste a lot of time before they actually settle, and they may use my kids against me.
I'm feeling the father of one of my children will return from Russia because of trump's travel ban and end of birth tourism.
At least if they are scared of the word "marriage ", my mom {a staunch Christian mother for that matter} has agreed we can cohabit. To show you how things are bad. Hmm #GRanDmajoinsBaDGang. I'm gainfully employed, not like I'm using them. Many times I may meet someone who wants to spend and would bring up the marriage topic out of desperation. I suggest we date but no sleepovers. Though there would be flakes but you know at least the real ones will remain which is even debatable.
Do I have to go through all this? After all the stress to feed and get a job with raising children? No wonder we have a lot of self empowerment and acceptance group these days. Hey! It's okay being single..not the end of the world, because relationships these days are gambles, rollercoasters, and death traps. It's not a black people thing anymore. So many divorces and broken homes here.

victorian:
Wow! You are indeed crazy! Incredible!




But dont worry with time, as u grow up u will have a firm grip on one of those two hybridpersonalities. One wil be subtle at the background while the other will be more dominant. The subtle one will appear once in a while.

Its a rare gift.

My mOm was telling me she thinks it's the same thing that happened with very learned writers and educationists Chinua AChebe, and now Chimamanda.
Though these people are not after the Glitz and Glamour of showbiz like me.
I wont lie. Im human and after finer things of life. FoR my EuROpean side, I'm more like into BRitneySPeaRs, Madonna , BRIAN warner of marilyn manson, lady Gaga, Katy Perry, Taylor Swift.
As polished as I may sound
The AfRican girl in me manifests as a harbinger of the iJele ORaCle. Reminds me of TheResaEGedege OnuORa. Look her up. Those Real native traditional movies with ReGinaDaniels I'm CRazy ABout. I also love our AfRiCan artistes worldwide.
They say I'm a possessed OGbanje. Being one isn't wrong, as long as it's not used for evil psychopathy or SOCIOPathy.

Havent told much about this.
People think I'm plain insane, seeking for attention and in need of medical help {this is have been able to diffuse effectively especially if im calm and am able to prove I'm not posing danger to myself and others. As far as it doesnt breed negativity}. Others think I'm a troll and into thearitics. I would never hate my people. It's Only the amount of tremendous and excruciating emotional and psychological pain we feel that makes me Dissociate . Though Many would argue since there are a lot of empowerment programs these days. For me, I feel it's too late to turn back. I'm already used to hurt and the pain- I don't know if that's my mind playing tricks on me in and of itself. My mind has been molded in two as a coping or adaptation strategy. I love all the beautiful things about AfRiCa & EUROPe, whenever I go to bed, I see all the places in my childhood in Lagos nigeria becoming like or turning to the advanced cities we have in EuROPe. I went to Holy Child College, ikoyi, a convent school. Joke Silva was also there. I dont know if she feels this same experience. Our school was founded by the Irish Catholics. We lived in an Irish town in New JeRsey. Everywhere there just seemed like h.c.c. little surprise? I always dream of girls playing in snow in my Secondary school.
I was always hardcore into all those white female celebrities, and of course nollywood at home. People called me a lesbian, not like it's wrong. But I don't really see girls that way in that light. CorDial PlatOnic Relationships are enough for me. They even labelled my love for white men as that since people think they are or they look GiRlie. There is this white Snowman from frRozen & UmbRrella I carry AROund. Yet, I can still act like a CRAZY AFRICAN GIRL oR Akata.
This brings me to the issue of interracial dating. Would I kill myself to be friends with, be in a Relationship with or marry a white man? When interracialize myself. I don't see the hybrids going away anytime soon sister. There are many white AfRicans, my African alter would manifest from that.
Did I also mention to you that I have Quite photogenic memory? There were really no cell phone cameras back in PRimarySChool. But I remember how each of us were seated and positioned right from when I began School in SheRRyville, OmOle i.e. at 1 and a half.
People say its because maybe I'm a really good and talented person so I internalize everything in an amazing way.
I'm Roman Catholic. They blame it on Roman Catholic agenda and mind control. The Klux Klu klan and ADOlPh HitleR were not even Catholic.
I know one thing is certain. I would definitely use my gift and abilities for GooD, because the Devil tries so hard to get me using little misgivings. I know people with special powers are seriously struggled over by these 2 forces.
I Remember when I had my first daughter, the AfRican looking one, I was always burdened with guilt, because of that European part of me I had always internalized. I was haunted by the fact that I may be evil and racist and come out one day to hurt her. The thought haunted me. I CRIED SO MUCH. I was all alone with my child.
People said I'm going through resulting effect of brain gay and over thinking. I dont know if this was me before or after all the studying. More interestingly, what led me into incessant knowledge Quests.
I'm a book worm, but when I step right into the CameRa and flashing lights, I become someone else.
I know I'm not Delusional I've thought about this over. Spoken to a few trusted priests, pastors, psychologists .
My brother calls it DaRk Knight of the Saints. That Satan is Really out to Defame GoodCharacters&PeOple.

Have you seen the girl TREASURE from Doctor Phil 10 years ago? Though people say she was paid for it and was an inside job. I believe it's an identity crisis like mine. The only thing she is getting wrong is just making plain ignorant statements. So no one is taking her seriously. She's kind of blocking herself from a Quite SPLENDID idea like mine. They may feel she's a COnARTist. The willingness or adaptation to survive in this world of ours where systems have been CReated.

But One thing , I've never liked Rap , hip hop R nB. In trying to accept black or africanamericans, they seem real strange to me or like a species going into extenction. Except for their culture. I always ever internalize black Americans as africans, so I don't see them as a subsection of theirself. I have spent over a Decade in the states, out of all the thousands of people I've met. I have seen only 2 full blooded black Americans. And they always identify as African Americans. One is already whitewashed sef In SPeeCh and mannerisms. No such thing as Akata in and of itself. Their bloodline is AfRiCan, and they've been mixed with other RaCes.

DexterousOne:
Not exactly true

there are partners in audit firms, Nigerians working in diaspora, business men who have made it, oil tycoons and top oil workers, etc that have hustled hard, and their kids attend such schools

Don't limit your scope

YOU can also hustle to keep your kids there too

That said, a good number of those kids are kids of politicians sha

But not all
Not even most

So you still have a point.

I feel you. It's like paying for any PRIVATE School in a Developed COuntRy. But they choose the option of BRITISH international school at home . About $10,000 a year for one ward.

victorian:
Wow!


Thats awesome!


How i wish im a guy!

Lol ! Dont mind me o.. Im kinda tipsy tonight . Too many cocktails tonight with a colleague of mine .


Its cool personality uv got! Keep it up dear !

Lol I'm a teenager with 3 BiRaCial DauGhTeRs though. I put them and myself on funny outfits and always playing record videos & pictures with them. People think I'm crazy, including my mom . I'm 100% AfRican and love it, but have some type of OBSESSIVE love for white people. I dont know what's wrong with me? Maybe I'm just a Civilized New WORLD ORDER GenOme type of person. Although the ♡ is slightly borderline and I'm battling with 2 hybRiDPeRSOnalities. One is a EuRopeanGiRl {it's weird because stuff like Donald Trump's policies negatively affect me, though I subtly look up to him esp since he's prolife. I only hate Hitler because of genocide. Though i think I identify with him because of his artistic tendencies. It's so confusing to be me}, the other an AfRiCanGiRl. I know I've spoken too much and sound CRazy now.
Some call it unReleastic, but if i should go all the way to change my looks, i think it should be seen as a form of freedom of expression as a fashionsta or Diva.
DONALD actually had a lot of shows back in the day and held many Beauty Paegents.
