₦airaland Forum

Dear madam,
From the tone of your comments I'll rightly suggest that you're not in this shithole country right now, so I expected that you'd sound enlightened atleast let the ones back home learn from you as they're looking up to you.
So up until now you dunno that religion is a scam? & You're abroad? Nne you're wasting the value of that visa

Mediocre reasoning
I'm not impressed
These ones back home will now continue to keep being useless to themselves in the name of religion.
You aff pain me
You're not doing well
How can you encourage tithe/offering & other scam acts

nnennachiji:
Are they forcing you to pay tithe and offering?
In my church nobody forces anybody to pay anything
So someone saving you up to 600 dollars a month is not generous
Anyway I know the church is really a life saver
So quit trying to sound as if you know everyone’s Situation

Lol. Dey wan unseat OP
Ednut1 take am easy naa
Lol

Coup still fit happen for nairaland??

They don’t sing gospel songs in our language... Inferiority Complex Much

ednut1:
Den of gossips and envy, people nacking each other's wives/ husband, competition and back biting, pastors always want to milk you with different tithes and some have awards and special callouts for highest tithers ( na there you go know say mr sola doesn't have a mortgage but went to buy an expensive car, sister Mary is an assylum seeker using female genital mutilation formats, bro Kenneth married an old mama for papers bla bla bla)

The good side- socialization (abroad life is lonely), invites to birthday, naming and weddings etc.

Oyinbo churches are somewhat calm, they are not tithe and offering obsessed, everyone minds their own businesses.

Source - used to attend one in Birmingham back in 2006 with my mother . Stopped being religious shortly after that . Na scam

THIS IS THE TRUTH

Nobody will force u to come their own, there are white churches there, u can patronize those ones. U can also fine church of satan and u are most welcome to be a member.

Let's grab our popcorn.

Some do not go about saying "I see someone here would get a job this week"

Or, I do not hear them say " you will buy a car this year"..

Unlike in Nigeria where they will say things that is sweet for you to hear because the country has failed us like "getting a job" , "getting a car or house " etc..

African churches na scam.. better pray in your house.

Keep your unbelief to yourself and allow her express her opinion. After all, no one is forcing you to become a believer, neither is she doing it for you or anyone here.

Based on my research, London is the number one city where the highest population of Nigerians can be found. Anyways, I've never been a fan of London

just shut up and go chill for "isle of man".. is it a must to be in London?

SirToby:
That's shocking! Same Nigeria mentality manifesting abroad. I had the chance of relocating to London 2 years ago. but I turned it down when I discovered Nigerians are all over the place. What's the point of leaving Lagos for another Lagos Phase II (London). I think I will prefer white churches will still keeping in touch with few good Nigerians

Omo this one dey compete with oga liar Mohammed ni o.

handsomeyitayo:
so this is happening there , why all this.nigerians nah wah..that y I like other countries like netherlands , switzerland ..

why you like country like Netherlands and Switzerland

SirToby:
Thread that I created ?

I think anyone who plans to relocate to any country outside Naija putting the population of Nigerians there is not ready to move.

Your reply dey like when hoodlums enter protest.
How far ni you sef follow for believers?
U even know wetin to believe
Ogbeni pack well, smoke Mali kush you won't listen, I know you don't understand, what I'm doing is for your sake
I'm trying to caution that Aunty to atleast assist us by saying the truth that she knows well that religion is a scam
If she admits it, some people will atleast listen to her and gradually become liberated and you're busy quoting me up-and-down

LAMBA!!!

zorani:
Wow, excellent. You don Waka churches O. The one you described about the church that starts with R is true. Na there I go see rubbish. Note: not all those people you see in church with big cars and dress well earn big. Trust me them fit don immerse themselves into huge debt just to show off in church. I know some of them wey I get more cash in my acct pass because me no dey pay tithe, seed or borrow or spend above my means. What am telling you is fact. As a Naija newcomer, as you hold unto Ur naija upbringing, put efforts in immersing urself in the culture and people of Ur new home. You will be surprised how fast you will grow. Every Nigerian abroad must not be doctor, nurse, care giver or engineer. Mingling with other ethnicity might not be easy but after some time you will get to understand how things work on a wider society. Join political party for grassroots if you have passport, try side business, be free and not be constantly in competition with Nigerians. Not being in a Nigerian church helps with these things

Awesome!

zorani:
So how much child care money did you save in two years and how much tithe, seed and offering did you 'pay' in those two years? Waiting for your answer. Lol, you think say you wise.

Na sense go kee you!

London is a Cosmopolitan City with diverse nationalities and ethnic blends. Nigerians are just one of these groups of people.

Tagging London as Lagos Phase II doesn't make sense and you are way off mark, as they both have their unique identities. If you don't want to live in London, you can live in other Cities in the UK...and that could have it's pros and cons regarding integration and opportunities.

You mentioned Nigerian mentality, please don't join the group of people that will secure a 6 month visa and start bashing their country of origin and acting 'whiter than the whites', with manufactured foreign accents.

If you don't like a place, find another. Don't go bashing and basing your judgement on hearsay.

Fashion sampling inside church!!!

Even Joan Rivers no do pass some of them.

I attend a Nigerian church Redeemed in Houston and is one of the best decisions ever
You can’t just conclude all Nigerian churches are bad
This particular church is a good one and really helps it’s members
They allowed my sister to bring her twins to their daycare for two years without paying
Even now what the are paying is below the normal rates
The help new immigrants to become comfortable
And can even be coming to your house to take you to church if you don’t have a car
The assist you a lot
It’s really a nice church
Even my son I have registered him to their daycare without paying but due to corona he has not been going
This church is a life saver
It’s a small church so no much gossip
I love this church

I love that church already

If you want to see the latest Lexus, Acura, Mercedes e.t.c just drive to a Nigerian church in the abroad. Same for fashionistas or if you like comparing your house, kids, properties, occupation e.t.c with others in the church

I attend Oyinbo church. Nobody cares what you drive or what you wear or how big your house is.

Somebody is seriously funding the day care. So when it's your turn to fund it, don't see it as Pastor feeding fat from You.

I never go church since I come uk, I pray on my own and read my Bible on my own.

Though there's a christ embassy church and winners chapel close to me I am yet to attend any

The socialization too get class. I have heard of situations where other Specialist Physicians had parties but did not invite Family physicians. Levels dey for socialization in some cases

Can a leopard change its skin?

It's to ur advantage if u attend a nigerian church wen in a foreign country cos if u have issues as a fresh immigrant then some of the members can help u.what is left for u is try and an identify which church has responsible members and apart from church make friends with nigerians wen u are in a foreign country .I don't just open up to any nigerian u see cos some would be irresponsible but there would be level headed ones who could help u.if u avoiding ur fellow country man then u just doin urself
