I'm sure if he was in a serene neighbourhood of a peaceful state, he wouldn't have found his way to Brooklyn.

And yes Jamaica Queens is one of the widely acclaimed heritage sites for the well known Nigga thug/gangster life.

WRONG. Parts of Brooklyn and Queens are as serene and beautiful as any part of the world.
BROWNSVILLE is a legendary extremely dangerous ghetto. Jamaica, Queens is actually quite ok - full of immigrants

A 16-year-old boy playing basketball at a Brooklyn park was fatally shot in the head Friday, authorities said.
Timothy Oyebola lived in Jamaica, Queens and attended Brooklyn Ascend HS.

He was likely not the intended target, police said.
He was in the Chester Playground in Brownsville at 4 p.m. when he was gunned down.
“As they were playing, shots were fired into the park. The shots were fired quite a distance away — over 100 feet,” said NYPD Deputy Chief Michael Kemper.

The high-achieving academic teen and his sister came to the US from Lagos in 2013.
“My son was a calm, quiet, obedient child, ” grieving dad David Oyebola told The Post.
“He’s intelligent. He loved sports and basketball. Very ambitious. He’s a boy who had a brighter future. He was constantly going for what he wanted to do in life. He wanted to become a doctor or an engineer.”

I have always said it and I will repeat it again.leaving Africa that has an organized culture to counties like America and the United kingdom where anything goes is a self destruct decision.Ask those that sent their children there to study,they will tell you their tales of woes,where their wards have become wayward,(drug addicts and useless)if they are lucky to escape the bullets from an overzealous spoilt brat.

WRONG. There are parts of those countries that are unsafe but on the whole, they are much safer and much better organized than Nigeria.
Best is to get your values from Naija (except the criminal aspect), then transfer those values to US/UK.

Only an irresponsible parent will claim he/she was looking for a better life for the kids and relocated them to a place like Jamaica Queens New York, or Peckham London.

Are there no saner districts in the USA to raise a model citizen and not a Nigga thug?

RIP to the homie that we lost.

My exact sentiments. Even hardcore gangsters are wary of queens, Brooklyn.

Right place but at the wrong time!

RIP yunging.

I blame all our past leaders for this death. If they had developed our country from the proceeds of oil, Nigerians wouldn't be leaving our shores searching for greener pastures.

What a fvcked country!!

Blacks have become an endangered specie especially in America.

If u have not been to the stateS u won't understand how loosely gun is been used there unlike that of UK that is prompted by mostly cult or some sort of tussle. In US u are prone to die by Stray bullet or even unwarranted attack.

The problem with you is that living abroad is the highest achievement in life,especially young Nigerians.I have lived and worked in America and the UK for many years and I pissed up with the things I saw(reason I refused to take my family with me).I am not carried away by fantasies.
