And best of all, with her Youkay passport, she can just hop on a plane and travel to almost any country in thew world without need for an entry Visa!

A Briton do not need skilled worker visa to remain and work in the UK. It is for immigrants who are yet to achieve ILR and citizenship.


And who is squeezing in one room? Not everyone living in every country in this world is living comfortably, just like not every migrant living in the West are into menial jobs as some are even earning more than the indigenous people, doing top tier jobs.

I am a Clinical Child Psychologist, I don't do "menial jobs", so even if I move to Nigeria, I will earn 7 figures monthly.....so, what are we saying.
Funny.

At the bolded, I was telling you indirectly that the case in hands was about British national moving to Nigeria and reminding you indirectly that you were digressing by referring to individuals who are immigrants,

Since you can earn that big in Nigeria, why are you still stuck in the Uk? Just asking

Majority who are coming back from the UK are about to have their legal stay, ending.

Some were given 60 days to get another job that would offer them skilled worker visa in order to remain in the UK, they couldn't get and some come online to give the impression they
voluntarily chose to go back to Nigeria.

I live and work in London..……life is cool.
So a British born is given 60 days to get skilled job?

The life you feel is cool for you in London, New York, Frankfurt is thrash and considered mediocre living to others. Squeezing into a one room shared apartment is a no-no to some.

A middle class corporate Nigerian, earning over a million naira in a month would see working anywhere in the world, as a carer for instance as a demotion. But if you have nothing of note doing in Nigeria and you move to anywhere western, doing a menial job, you will still consider it as a promotion.

Let us know your antecedent before you advise and people should be careful whose advice they are listening to.

Let us respect each others decision and move on. To every mallam his kettle.

Just as you have a right to relocate anywhere, she has the right to move anywhere she chooses too, despite being born in the UK.

Respect her wishes.

She’s not asking you not to go to any western countries. Stop creating reasons why you feel she wants to relocate. He who wears the shoes knows where it pinches.

If others are seeing what you are blinded against in Nigeria, just allow them.

Nairaland is a platform full of individuals who have never been to the airport before but strongly opinionated about what’s going on abroad.

Two men have been caught attempting to perform a money ritual using sand taken from three different bank locations.

Confessing to the accusation, they revealed that they planned to collect sand from three banks—Access Bank, Wema Bank, and UBA—for the ritual. Speaking in the Yoruba dialect, they explained how they intended to carry out the ritual.

The question is, can sand collected from banks actually be used for such purposes?

Let's hear your thoughts in the comments.

Between 2000 and 2014, Nigeria's economy experienced broad-based and sustained growth of over 7% annually on average, benefitting from favorable global conditions, and macroeconomic and first-stage structural reforms.

They started sabotaging his regime in 2014 to make him look bad for reelection.

Now, the rest they say is history
I don't understand why you guys are like this.

Jonathan administration ended on the 29th May 2015.

Where was the president when they were sabotaging his regime like you claimed or you meant to say the looting started in full force during this period. Have you forgotten how they looted the treasury while Baba was not bothered?

Some head of states, Nigeria Presidents (including Jonathan) suppose to be in Jail for how reckless the treasury was looted under their administration.

So, we should take your assumption to be a fact.

You think Iweala is like you who will always defend and support a particular political party. From the intelligent piece that woman penned down, the only vain thing in your head was to paint a particular political party bad. Iweala was part of Jonathan Administration but she was never shy to state that Jonathan lacked the political will to save for the rainy day.

Both PDP and APC were culpable. You could not excuse any of the political party.

She was saying that there should be social economic contract between the govt and the people IRRESPECTIVE of political parties, which they must always implement and continue to implement. I can bet you, just like an average Nigeria, you never read the article or your comprehension skill was flawed. Iweala mentioned 2014 for a reason, do not put a spin on what she said through your fickle assumption.

Where are those 🤡 that swore that Russia cannot enter or attack a NATO country? Or is this not an attack?

Russian missiles and drones have been hitting NATO countries since 2022. And what does NATO do? They issue out statements telling Russia to be responsible lol

Even the Baltic Sea area have been experiencing severe GPS jamming by Russia, forcing Finland, Sweden and co to suspend some flights due to GPS interference. Ships on the Baltic Sea nearly collide into each other due to the jamming. But NATO does a really great job at hiding it from the public.

Those that know Russia very well, know that Russia doesn't rush into taking action. They play the long game, slow and steady. Russia will punish NATO for it's crimes for decades to come.

The United States is lucky it does not share a land border with Russia. It's so called "super power" status would have been put to test by Russia.
You failed big time in simple comprehension. The article states - “Russia is SUSPECTED “. Also another paragraph states - “it APPEARS Russia is scouting Germany”

In English Language, this means the evidence is not conclusive, still in the realm of GUESS.

Gaza War: Nigeria, other Israel’s crude oil, fuel suppliers risk war crimes probe – Report


In a historic decision delivered in January 2024, the International Court of Justice (ICJ) ordered Israel to take actions to ensure its forces do not commit acts of genocide in Gaza.





https://www.premiumtimesng.com/news/top-news/727641-gaza-war-nigeria-other-israels-crude-oil-fuel-suppliers-risk-war-crimes-probe-report.html
I know some individuals who lack adequate comprehension skills would be insulting Nigeria.

For clarity, the article did not accuse Israel of Genocide. To prove Genocide, you have to meet high legal bar.

Israel is entitled to self defence, and you need to prove beyond reasonable doubt that Israel actually committed Genocide which is a tough ask. Israel simply responded to an action.

ICJ does not find Israel culpable of Genocide, so nothing do Nigeria.

We actually checked the price online to verify, and is actually within that range of €3 to €4. I wonder why you can make this statement without even trying to find out what a can of heineken cost in Europe and United States today. The contents are definitely different from what we consume here.

Yes, no place is completely 100% safe, but is nothing compared to the situation in nigeria, where the whole country is facing hyper food inflation, simply because farmers are killed in there farm and they cannot go back to farm
Can you see? You went to check the price of Heineken in Europe online. He indirectly made you feel less, and you still could not figure it out. I dont need to find out what can of Heineken. I was birthed , lived , schooled and worked for many years in US and EU.

Then your friend should not be able to sleep in our hotel because the price is lesser than what is obtainable in the Europe.

He should not be able to do anything in Nigeria because the price will always be cheaper in Nigeria.

Higher prices in EU should tell you the countries are more expensive than Nigeria, and in order to cater for those expenses, they pay them wages that could accommodate the bills. But sadly, someone in Nigeria will be converting the money to Naira as if he would earn in EU and spend in Nigeria.

US is more dangerous than Nigeria. You have not lived anywhere apart from Nigeria, so you have no facts to justify the bolded - just assumptions.

You may have all the money you want, but you are still facing the huge risk of consuming fake products with all there health implications. Insecurity, more prevalent accidents, and so many more.

I will tell you a short story. A friend of mine returned from Netherlands last year. We went out to chill. He ordered a can of heineken and was told the price is #800 . At netherlands, the same size of can heineken is sold for €3.99 . That was over #5000 at the exchange rate as at then. Well, he simply refused to take the drink, because he could not vouch for the quality of the content.
It is extremely dangerous to live in Nigeria
Your friend was simply being ridiculous, and subtly attempting to feel superior over you but you couldn’t figure that out. Caucasians drink our Heineken, not to talk of your friend who you called a “returnee”.

Democracy and statehood is gradually been completely eroded.

To some people, what matters is someone from my tribe. To some, so long as it isn't a Christian, whatever government comes up us okay however destructive.

Can anyone tell us the credentials of Seyi Tinubu to be the beneficiary of 15 Trillion Naira contract, and how come did such an humongous contract get approved with secrecy.


Democracy is being replaced with cultist operations by APC and Tinubu. If you are not part of their confraternity, you either die of mysterious circumstances like they killed Odumakin. Yorubas have shown to the whole world the kind of leader it can produce and by extension, the kind of people they are. The earlier Nigerians and youths realize their future is what is being gambled away the better. Because of the extremely terrible policies of APC, over 85% can never have more than 95,000 Naira in their savings. From hand to mouth. It is so bad youths are not talking about dreams or marriage again, but about just being able to survive on a day to day basis.


When would young Nigerians drop hatred for the other tribe, the other religion and choose leaders because they care about statehood.


From Saudi Arabia, Aramco, to even war-plagued Russia's GAZPROM, countries with oil cash in revenues around 50-120$ Billion dollars per annum, raising life standards, yet Nigerian youths all over social media are ready to fight anyone because it is the uplifting of their clan to the presidency and by so, rationalism should be thrown away and mediocrity dethroned.


Someone is telling you people to manage. Another full somewhere is saying protest while they eat, spending 20 Billion on the residence of a criminally postured VP, 150 Billion on private jet of a criminally postured gang leader, 15 Trillion on this son as give away, then the oil wells in the Niger Delta to members of their occult groups, then whatever is left of the nation to their attack dogs and you nincompoops are rallying behind such devilish government.
