Chief Butcher na Bl@ck Ax£ [N£o Bl@ck Mov£ment] term na. Are Ayes in Boko Haram now? |
That picture is funny and I am sure it was intentionally selected. An intending asylum seeker will raise his/her hands above his/her head upon reaching the desk/station of an entry officer at a port of entry It is called Adurò. |
I dont condone what the soldiers did but this LAGBUS spokesman should stop lying. A broken down bus was left in the middle of the road and an 'innocent' motorcyclist ran into it and got killed. 7 hrs to remove a broken down bus? A former Uni roomate of mine along with 2 of other passengers in his car were killed when he ran into an abandoned truck on an unlit section of this same road and I have a sister who still bears the facial scars after running into an abandoned molue on a section of this very same road. Remeber Da Grin? Same shit |
naijababe: The doofus judges who preside at Old Bailey are so sillyAnd he'll be out in 4 |
After missing out by .01 on each occassion for the past 2 auctions, my sister finally succeded on 25 June. Stop rate was 10.349 for 364 days |
This is made up news. I dont believe anyone could have possibly identified the bombers accomplices in the pandemonium that must has ensued after the blast. I am a Nigerian living in the UK and after over a decade of living here, I still run if I see more than one person running towards me. After a bomb blast, unlike oyinbo people who will run towards to area where the explosion happened, black people and Nigerians especially will run as far away from it. If anyone was shot sadly it would have been just another of the innocent bystanders caught up in the blast and runnong for dear life. Soldiers could not have been on the scene in the immediate aftermath to shoot any of the suicide bombers accomplices. If there were any accomplices, they would have been long gone |
Chei 6 months of correct information.... All lost! |
Sold at N277 to a £ on Friday 3 Jan |
Chillisauce: Thanks for the reply, will be going for a yr, but what I read in politics section scares me, I hope nigeria won't break up and my money vanishesI have 2 investments maturing in May 14 and another Jan 15. I like 364 days but I will only reinvest the cash for 180 days to last till November 14. The feared unrest should spike the rates between Dec 14 and Feb 15. If rates reach 20% in this period I will take the risk and invest. If they are any lower, I will withdraw my money, change to $ and keep under my bed. |
feelamong: CBN STOP RATES FOR 09/01/14Thanks bro. I was going to bid 12% for my 364 days but decided not to be too greedy so settled for 11.5%. Not too bad. |
Any News |
See as Manure thread be like ghost town. . eerie silence |
Are you guys back from your holidays yet? when is the next auction? |
I also cant understand this no job stuff. Where I work there is a new Aussie or Kiwi fresh of the plane starting a £300/day contract job almost every other week. There are many young Nigerian boys I know personally making mega bucks up doing contract work on unbelieveable daily pay rates. And finally, I find it funny that the people that say try US, Canada or Australia have actually never been to these places so know Bleep all about life in those countries. |
Sarcoc: Like most things in life you will only be fully convinced once you ve tried it and not before. I have lived in the UK for near 15 years and have met various people in that time.I came to the UK as a student in 2002 and unlike the OP, my mind was made up to stay back. I finished Uni in 2003 and started working in a call centre 6 months later while mixing it with a part time match day steward job. You may not believe this but that period has to date been when I managed to save the most money even though my total income was just about £17,000. I bought my first car, it was a 4 year old car, 26 months after I arrived and my first flat just under 3 years after I arrived. Bear in mind I had no dependants and my parents/siblings didnt depend on me so all my money was mine. I should also make it clear that I lived with my girlfriend at the time (now wife) and we had a financial association which makes things a bit easier. I could go on and bore you with what I have achieved so far but what would be the point? You shouldnt discourage the young man just because it didnt work out for you. There are thousands of Nigerians who migrated to the UK and havent looked back ever since. |
Dyt: Dyt is thickPlease tell me that your profile pic is photoshop! Osanobua o! |
chelseabmw:I used to work in the Shed End, then got moved to East upper. But that was many moons ago. It was always funny when all the stewards turned up on any match day when Chelsea played the big boys (Arsenal and Man Utd). |
PapaBrowne: Eeeeem!! Those kind Asaba kidnappers when dey beg you to come take phone na simple type. The kidnapping when dey happen for other places, it dey be like bank robbery for broad day light. This kind one when you narrate so, you fit take slap threaten dem, them go run!!A high school "friend" I had not seen in 7 years did this to me in my own house! I dont normally believe in diabolical stuff but that day I realised it exists. It had rained on the day he came "visiting" rain and the floor was muddy so we sat outside in the car port. As a chap with an acceptable level of street knowledge, like 30 seconds into his story I knew where this was going. At about a minute in, I couldnt understand what the guy was saying anymore and from then on I just saw his lips move. What happened next shocked me. I made to get up from the sofa I was sitting and it felt like I was glued to the seat! I panicked. I dont know where I summoned the strenght from but I somehow managed to fight the force pushing me down to my seat and I got up and backed up slowly to my front door nodding to the barsteward even though I had long lost any comprehension of what he was saying. I locked the door, shouted out for the house help, ran upstairs and picked up a dusty bible in my room. I randomly flicked it open but I couldnt see anything. The house help came and started panicking saying "brother wetin happen?" That was when I started coming round to my senses. I asked the house help to go outside and let my "friend" out of the compound and tell him I had gone out. I locked the door behind the househelp. I looked on from the window and when my "friend" was told I was no longer around, he calmly stood up and said to the house help "no problem, tell him I came to see him". How can a true friend accept such an explanation without any argument when we had been having a conversation and he had seen me go back into my house barely 5 minutes earlier? That just comfirmed his evil mission. After the incident, I went and researched the dude and it turns out my gentle and meek classmate from years back was now a hardened criminal/cultist who had been rusticated from uni. The moral of my long story: Be wary of "friends" you havent seem in a long time. |
I hope thats what the airport looks like o cos I remember when I landed in May the smell from the toilet drove away the shyt when don old me since we dey over Sahara desert. Anyway I will find out on Monday and report back if this is really how our MMIA really looks now. |
ViKtor1094: What do u expect from them?? They should wait to confirm that d passengers are not suicide bombers after they detonate the explosives they are carrying? why will anybody in his sane mind try to jump a military checkpoint?Your brain has been militarized. |
ckkris: Let Shekau show his face anywhere in Nigeria if he's not a coward.Dont be silly.... Why would he do that? It like saying If Jonatham is not a coward let him show his face without security anywhere in Boko Haram territory. You all shouldnt be worried about whether Shekau is dead or not. You should be worried about your govt's capability of wiping out BH. BH became more daring after Yusuf's death. |
$100 for 24 days work! And some people will come on nairaland and tell us no one in Nigeria lives on $1 a day. That its all western propaganda. If you subtract the lady's monthly transport fare, She's living on barely $2 a day... It is so unfortunate. |
This man didnt invent the gun. He designed a type of assault rifle. Can you God people just shut dafuq up. This chap will enter heaven before all you morons. *Vint Cerf will go to hell for inventing the internet as it has led to the easy access of porn *The makers of condoms will go to hell for promoting promiscuity *All BB executives will go to hell for inventing BBM which has aided runs girls *All workers in Swiss knife manufacturer Wenger, will go to hell for making knieves *All judges in courts will go to hell because the Bible said "Judge not" |
One. The land is Green by T Y Bello. On my track listing it is sandwiched between Sir Mix a Lot's Baby Got Back and Lil Wayne's Every Girl. |
* Taking only one (1) meat when serving food from the pot. * My first visit was during summer (August) and I slept with a leather jacket and thick socks. The summer cold die. * Trying to use cold water to have a shower like I normally did in Uni. I almost died. * Didnt know I had to wave my hand for a bus to stop at a Request stop. The bus didnt stop and just went past. I started crying and I thought to myself it was cause I was black. |
Nigerians are hypocrites. I can bet my life that 98% of the 253 people who liked OP's post are having or had premarital sex. What OPs post doesnt take into consideration is that there are people who dont want to marry, those who cant find marriage partners and those who may marry late. So these groups of people should never have sex/ start having sex at 40? |
wild child: yAbi o A serving Lagos state commssioner was kidnapped right there in front of Four Seasons Hotel on the Island. |
chillbabe: For ur info am Dutch married to a Nigerian English is not my languages if I make mistakes in my writing am so not ashamed of it. Its that the only thing u saw in my post? To bad for uI do not mock your English. I wish I could type a sentence in Dutch half as well as you type in English. in your first post, you made it sound like you were an European who just upped and let Europe to come and hustle from the bottom in Nigeria just like we Nigerians go and hustle from the bottom in your country. Your second post makes it clear that you moved for love and I cant begrudge you for that. If however you are telling me you prefer the hectic lifestyle of an average Nigerian of no security, no power, never ending traffic jams, bad roads, poverty, slavery, no medical facilities to the socially inclusive societies found in western Europe, you need your head checking. |
Sunglow: You an European!!!!! are you for realWhich manner of European? With her level of English, I suspect she is a Croat on Interpols wanted list. Which European comes to Naija to hustle? |
See ppl dey holla N8M like say na one kind major money. After tax my man go dey see like N6M. Kids school is N1M/yr, house rent will be about that as well. Wetin come remain. N8M per annum is not enough to send yoir kids to any uni in a developed country not to talk of an Ivy League uni. I also ran away because of the quality of life and I have never regretted although I still exhibit symptoms from my terrible experience back in Naija. After getting home invaded 3 times in 6 months and several other robberies and cloae shaves, I had to cut man. It will be harder for the OP with a family, if truth be told. I left as a young man with no baggage and a lot of support from home. |

. Just 8 years for a crime of this magnitude? One reason why I love the yanks. This ninja would have bagged nothing less that 20yrs in the US.
