Owning a house in the UK does not make you rich
The banks own the house until you finish paying off the mortgage,
Being very rich means that you don't necessarily have to work for anyone as people will be working for you.
If you get to a point where your money is working for you to a point where you don't have to go and drive a taxi cab, then you can be considered as very rich or very wealthy,

Working in the US or UK allows you to put money aside that can be used to build a house in Nigeria, this money is either from years of disciplined regular savings, or if you have a good credit rating you can get a loan from a bank or remortgage your house by securing money from the bank against your mortgaged house, this money can be used to build a house in Nigeria, this then gives the impression that as a Taxi driver abroad, you are rich, Remember that if you default on any loan or money secured on your house, your home is at risk, and your credit rating will be adversely affected.

Also don't forget the cost of living in these cities London, NewYork e.t.c can be quite expensive as you have to pay tax on almost everything, there is no getting out of paying your dues.

You hit the nail on HEAD! well done.

As you site at your computer there's a MILLION MAN march being organized by Nigerian youth all around the world.

keep dreaming.

3million man march for Abacha did nothing, you believe 1million man march will do anything?

we need a few good men and women ready to laid down their lives like Gideon Okaha.

and what happened to other Jos report submitted since 1953?

yeye country, yeye people.

who cares??

They should help Mexicans first before travelling thousands of Km to Africa.

This is the problem with Nigeria, bribery and corruption, fraud, scams, get rich quick.

If this cancer is not rooted out there is absolutely no hope whatsoever.

Another CRAP!

UK was built with corruption and blood of all the colonies.

The crown on your queen's head, how much did she pay for the diamond on it?

Better go and learn history before coming here and spill CRAPS!

We now know the reason for the current electicity "outbreak" for which they have been "embarassing" us lately. I have no problem with increase in tariff provided electricity supply is stable.

You should.

what a mentality with Nigerians.

Well people in other countries are looking for competitive prices.

thats why Nigeria mobile phone charges the most expensive in the world.

You guys should stop wasting your time.

Same old game, same old players equals same old result.

Its done to spite turai cos they're NOT in good terms with the guy, and the rest of SHEHU's immidiate family, look this politicians know more than we know that's sometimes we'll be asking how on earth will they take some decisions.

And you think this is a good sign from 'Acting President' that wants to better the life of ordinary people on the street??

Nigeria should now suffer further because he wants to spite Turai??

You guys never seen anything!

By the time Goodluck finishes with you, you will beg him to leave.

1. Signed out $3billion in two weeks

2. His wife stolen $2,000,000.00

3. He has about 40 advisers and now 42 ministers

All of these for less than 9months in office.

there's nothing the nigerian government has done bad that the sudanese one hasn't done worst in an attempt to kill all blacks in their country.
but nigerians still found reason to go there instead of going to at least lagos and applying for jobs like a human being.

CRAP, you just wrote.

Nigerians are FREE to go anywhere they want. But they should obey the LAW of those places.

Nigerians men are typically lazy and even when they are in another country legally or illegally they tend to scam, con and hussle their ways through life. NO COUNTRY NEEDS THESE TYPE OF PEOPLE

Indeed with your half-baked knowledge.

Impeccable sources disclosed that Senator Imoke’s driver who was on duty complained that he was feeling sleepy but was urged by a superior official to drive the SUV as there was no alternative.

The driver, according to our source, was told to use water to wash his face to prevent the sleep, which he did but that did not help matters.

This is the mind of the people that 'rule' Nigeria.

No wonder, there is no light, no water, no good. Yeye country.

He has a life threatning ankle injury

Bob Marley died from a toe injury!

Jonathan screw up himself in his ministers nomination. Which state would dora going to win for you. ZERO state. Dora can not even win her home state for governor. Not to talk of helping Jonathan to win the presidency. This is call politics. he better pray the senate reject some of the people on his list, for him to have a second chance at rewritten the list.

Good Analysis.

I guess GoodLuck does not want to stay beyond 2011.

suedoh2006:
Follow the Law

can you spare us your 'regurgitated CRAP'?

Vincent committed a criminal offence. It doesn't matter if the offence was driving 1 mph over the legal speed limit of going on a killing spree in Peckham. The fact remains that he broke the law and as he is not a citizen he gets to be deported.

Blacks with their 'inferiority complex'

I did not read anywhere that he was 'illegal' immigrant

So deporting someone because of 'driving offence' is absolute CRAP.

Not even in 'police-state' is such crap of useless LAW is practiced!

There is something more they are not telling us!

I think the moral of this post is thus:
remember there is going to be a "prisoner exchange program" btw 9ja and uk, so beware if you live in uk cos even traffic offence fit land u for 9ja oh!!
one word is enuff 4 the wise!!!

Gbosa!!!

Uranium is 'readily available' from Niger.

and you think French government would allow you tap into this?

cant we just try to make 'table spoon' first before jumping to NUCLEAR plant?

Work on what will become the world's second largest uranium mine has begun in the west African state of Niger.

After it opens in three years' time the $1.5bn (£1bn) mine is expected to yield 5,000 tonnes of uranium per year.

French nuclear energy company Areva is building the mine and will take a majority share in it.

The Doctorate General, General Dambazzau is the first General with a PhD holding the post of Chief of Army Staff, I think this historical event for some reasons has passed us all by, without the slightest thought,  it is an occasion worthy of celebrating.

and we are suppose to JUMP UP?

What is wrong with this country Nigeria

ologun123:
i tried putting all the details on nairaland, but it was classified as a spam nd i was banned

Can you add again the details. Just make it brief.

And how do I get my money back if your business fails?

It is not charity, if you can provide answer to that; you will get FUND.

There is one in VI, but you need to do your home work well.

With no power supply and a lot of jobless youth, I doubt if this is meant for Nigeria.

It is more for country with less people, good water system, good power supply.

He was sentenced to five months in prison for driving while disqualified after twice being convicted of careless driving. Immigrants who commit serious criminal offences are subject to automatic deportation once their sentences end. Onwubiko is being held at the Colnbrook Immigration Removal Centre, close to London Heathrow Airport.

deporting someone from driving offence is CRAP.

I guess UK will start deporting if you also get drunk, abuse your neigbour etc.

Yeye. Hissss.

Nigerians should open their eyes.

Nothing NUCLEAR will be done.

US is just trying to stop RUSSIA from doing this with Nigeria.

US oil companies are all over Niger Delta, yet they practice CRAPS they cant do in Houston in Niger Delta!

The dude's been in UK long enough to have gotten permanent residency and is only being deported cos he flouted some driving rules and all hope is not lost yet, all he has to do is take his case to the European Human Right Court, and bingo, all is posted.

deporting someone because of traffic offence is CRAP.

That is a useless country to me.

Reading from above, it seems there are two set of citizens in UK: original white UK and all others

Talk of equality indeed!

Goodluck has NO power or right to bar anyone from travelling!

Nigeria Police has no power either WITHOUT a clear order from a court of law.

The court of law also has no right without proper evidence to issue such a notice to bar anyone.

This is democrazy for crying out loud!

while he's at it perhaps he could start by reopening his wife's case with the EFCC - you know the N104m which she stole from the bayelsa state treasury and of course the other $13.5m again stolen from the bayelsa treasury

Gbosa!!!

uktrader:
Many Nigerians are being shipped/deported back to home land of Nigeria on a daily basis costing foreign counties $$$. why can't Nigerians obtain the right documents (Not Fake) or just stay put in the their lovely county. You are causing too much problems around the world more than any other minority group.

CRAP, if you ask me. Loads of it.

Jakumo:
I had some of that fabled red snapper for dinner last night, which is always a good development.

Lucky you. But is this in naija? Otherwise, which cabal you dey?

Nigeria is full of bad news.

It is getting difficult to get any cheering good news.

Can you post only GOOD news if any here?

Nigeria has no business with worldcup funding etc.

We have enough hungry people to feed.

worldcup should be strictly 'private companies' affair.

Indeed, what has Gaddafi to offer Nigerians? Nigeria is our only country, so he has no right to tell us what to do. We might be experiencing crisis, GOD will see us through. Let him shut up please.

But America/UK can tell you want to do?

In another 6months another set of people would be killed in JOS.

Doing something is better than doing nothing!

Last time I checked, it was not Libyans swimming cross ocean to go to EU, it is Nigerians.

Libya prison is full of Nigerians. He surely knows what he his talking about!

Good Idea but wrong COUNTRY!

Uncle Wole needs to wake up.

Nigeria is cash-carry politics with GODFATHERS.

The only possibility is if GOODLUCK wants to write his name in GOLD by conducting FREE-FAIR election.

But he cannot as he was put there by his own CABAL!

You guys always amuse me.

You think GOODLUCK is there for the masses??

He signed out $2BILLION before they made him Acting President!

He signed this week another $1BILLION. Thats $3BILLION in 2weeks.

This news I believe is not strange. He will be settling along to get anything done; we all know how he became acting President.

Wake up to reality! The only credible thing he could do is 'FREE-FAIR ELECTION'

@Fhemmmy

That is the test of a true leader . . . . .so let us watch and pray

I do respect your views on this forum.

But common, you and I know nothing is changing!

We know that GoodLuck had to agreed to sign out $2BILLION if he was made acting president.

Infact, he just signed out another $1billion, make it $3billion within 2wks.

This is surely not interesting of Nigerians!

He has his own CABAL now.

Lets assume I was wrong and that two planes hit the twin towers and that fires as a result of the impact lead to the collapse of the twin buildings(official story) but can someone please explain how building 7(WTC 7) which is also part of the world trade center came down at free fall speed despite the fact that it wasnt hit by a plane or fire?

can you answer that?

If you dont know. then dont write CRAP.

answers, anyone?

FL Gators:
We just have to wait and see lol

ummm, It seems you have been away from Nigeria too long.

Bola Ige was waiting until they killed him. Nigerians have been waiting since 1960.

I beg, we should be tired of waiting now.
