Adjovi:
Yeah they have lifted the sanctions on Russian oil

Med oh...

AfahaAbia:
🤣🤣🤣 Very very true. The problem with us Nigerians is we love hearsay and following the bandwagon.

Exactly! Ni body want put body do small research.

emmaodet:
Does it mean I should start converting my savings from dollars to gold or land?

Gold. Virtual gold that has no connection to the USA

I want to opines that, they found themselves in the midst of neighbours that are progressing, proximity to epicentre of developed economy such as US, hence naturally they felt the urge to be challenged, in the case of Nigeria, we are surrounded by fellow developing countries, the leaders believe they are actually doing the best here, even if their best is worst elsewhere.

Now I'm getting somewhere with my thoughts.

Raalsalghul:
People will always apportion blame without taking a look at themselves. Loser mentality!

Almost everyone I've seen complaining about the U.K on closer inspection I've discovered have them selves to blame one way or the other.

Recently spoke to a family friend that complained of how his family spent close to a month in Airbnb apartments because they couldn't get an apartment for themselves (Husband was the dependant and wife was the main applicant).

I pointed out families that moved smoothly with main applicant going first, settling in and looking for a bigger accommodation before the dependant and their kids joined.

He mentioned that he was told to do the same thing but he doubted that information and moved with his whole family at once.

Shebi tomorrow na that one will say U.K is a harsh place? Abi?

I'm all in for Suella Braverman closing that post-study route because the whole thing dey display the stupidity of Nigerians to the world.

Notice: Indian and Pakistani students don't complain as much as this.

In the group I'm in, a lot of them made that mistake. I no longer pity them. You are coming to a place you know no one, even if you know someone, has little or no help to render to your settling in, you rush carry your whole family Waka come... Indians will wait till they get COS before they bring their family. Lazy Nigerian youths.

Raalsalghul:
Honestly we don't Victoria.

The U.K topic has been overflogged.

And anybody suffering in the U.K is due to their foolishness and stupidity and not the U.K itself.

Fine, the U.K doesn't care about you and only want your money but why don't you care about yourself by planning properly and having a contingency plan in case shit goes sideways?

Huh?

Everyone has the mindset of as soon as the leave Nigeria, all their problems are solved. Everything should fall in place.

I had that mindset initially, till I stayed 3 months without job thag I realise I needed to make things fall in place. I would have been like everyone opening pages here there with nothing good to say about my journey off Africa.

Nigerians believe things should be done for them. I have left the country, therefore everything should fall in place with the barest effectort from me mindset.

Raalsalghul:
Honestly, Pansophist. I'd like to hear your thoughts on why the black race is so backward.

In my younger days, I used to think it was colonialism but dropped that thought when some Asian countries that gained independence at the same time like us were far better and advanced a la Singapore.

Next, I thought it was our leaders and the elites but leaders are elected from the people. Besides, some commoners or plebs who get to position of power still misbehave.

Right now, the theory I'm working with is that something happened to the black race during evolution. As in, a phenomenon that made us retrogress while other races were successfully adapting to their environments because it's not normal.

Honestly, I'd like to hear your thoughts.

Cc: Gerrard59, Sagamite

I have been asking myself same question. I have tried to look into what's actually the problem. But then you look at Barbados, Trinidad and Tobago, and other black race not in Africa, when compared are doing far much better than us. I can't rule out evolution, but if it is evolution, why are those Caribbean countries doing well than their African counterpart?

Gerrard59:
Erimma1,

You have not answered this young man's curiosity.

But then, I recall well-to-do Nigerian men who still married ladies who fvcked around when they were younger or in school. Sha, I don talk am, the average Nigerian man has no standard when it comes to marriage. Na to dey shout alfa meil for road while dangling the smelly preek.

I know of a man who married a girl that it was obvious to everyone in the department she was sleeping with her lecturer. I saw one of her post where she was adoring the husband on Facebook on his birthday, I was pretty disgusted.


I used to be friends with guys who organised shows for models etc when I was in Nigeria, I happened to attend one of their shows and after show and after party, God! You needed to see how they were sharing the female models around and what they're doing to them... I mean the organisers. Needless to say, the male models are not left out, most of them have become homosexuals.

Adjovi:
Na UK own worse. Countries wey no dey too produce dey follow others sanction senior man Russia . Wahala for Una o. When Una head correct like Japan Una go reverse the sanctions

Japan reversed their sanctions on Russia? Mad oh.

Appleyard:
It's a real pity when you have a political class that is russophobia. Poland shot itself on the foot. Now, they want to sue Russia for stopping gas export to their country. Isn't that madness?

As in, they want to sue Russia for stopping their property to enter Poland... Madness at its peak.

Omoawoke:


Frustrated Russia
They are fighting out of exhaustion
There’s a reason countries like Russia and China will never be word power. They are isolated with few friends and lack diversity and Liberty

And that’s why Liberty will always win. Everyone wants freedom, the western Allies promise liberty and they give diversity and inclusion

Death to Russia and China. May frustration ruin them, may isolation destroy them. May they self destruct

For those people supporting them, we know that US denied them visa, and they are pained

Not everyone has applied for US visa. I did, will not and will never.

Gerrard59:
I saw the comment and wanted to quote it, but realised that the concept of marriage differs among people. The average Nigerian equates marriage to childbearing, let alone marriage. How many married couples are intentionally child-free in Nigeria? Very few. So, I understand his point.

Honestly I don't even know what to say. Marriage to a Nigerian is all about having kids and minding the consequences. Let me have kids now, when I'm 45 or 55 my kids will be 30 thus looking same age... Gosh! What's gain having them whilst still broke.

udede:
If i knew what i know now i would have married at 23., When you are 45 and with your children looking like your siblings, you will understand. Though it needs a different level of maturity

What is your gain having kids that looks like siblings? I mean so one should sacrifice dreams to bring kids that knows nothing into this world? Oh please.

Hatrick01:
I am planning to marry and start a family as i am still young.

I am 24 yrs old boy (i am my own boss),that can stand his ground.

I am pretty sure that i can take care of a family.

I dont want to spend all i ve earned on clubing or any any dirty stuff.

I am thinking of bringing in a girl that will help me in my life.

That will also help me to manage all i have worked for since i am 17.

I dont want to squander them all.

Pls, fathers in the house, is there any other responsibility of a married man aside:

Paying children fees,

Winning the bread for family,

Taking care of ur wife?

Pls i need advise!

I'd tell you what, don't do that. That you are seeing some cash now doesn't mean it will be there all the time. Make huge investments. Forget woman now.

Masterviolence:
They can't hide the truth anymore

I thought Ukraine was winning the war...😂 😂

olugabbie:
Well, I don't think the US is capable of fighting any major war alone. Iran has challenged the US several times and the Almighty US didn't do anything.

Iran attacked the US base in Iraq when Soleimani was killed. Despite the fact that, Trump threatened Iran with fire and furry if Iran attack the US. Well they did and Trump back down. His Generals must have told him to let it go.

Same happened when Iranian navy embarrassed some US naval personnel. They were arrested and treated like criminals, the US could not do anything. Iran is not a nuclear state. So there is no excuse.

If the US is being cautious against Iran. Do you think that same US will want to engage Russia in a war?

War is not simple arithmetic. Thank God the politicians don't think foolishly, like some of us do.

I like as you deh answer them with fact. Thy think war is just simple like that.

pansophist:
If you will study, then four million is not enough unfortunately. 4M naira is about 6k euros, it won't pay for your school fees even. You need at least 8-10k euros for that.

I mean, its a huge money, but naira have fallen so badly that when converted to euros, it becomes so small. If you can increase it, then try. It worth working hard for.

Or you go for bachelor degree programs. They are usually cheaper. Lapland university of applied sciences have the cheapest degree program. At about 4k a year, even better if they give you a scholarship.

I can't recommend any course for you. But go to studyinfo. fi, and search for courses that you like, also use the filter botton to search better. But I'll give you a possibility of relocating without spending much.

Lab university of applied sciences just started a four year engineering bachelor program called sustainable solutions engineering. So you study the first 60 credits (out of 240 credits) online, if you perform well, then from the second year, you can study in Finland for free.

The university will assist you to come to Finland, and tuition fee will be free. The country needs people in that field, so they exempt that program from tuition payment.

You won't find the link to the program on their website (I don't know why), but drop your email and I'll send it to you, so you can apply. I got it through their newsletter, since I applied there long time ago when I was like you, trying to japa.

Goodluck mate. May God bless your hustle.

Big brother... I fit get the link?

naijaboy99:
You don't know what you are saying. It is only in Nigeria such things happen. Abroad everyone knows their limit. There is no surprises. Doctors earning $250k annually can't even save $350,000 in 10years. The greatest liars are Nigerians living in Canada and America

UK low-key deh lie too.

Timsco90:
That one bad, pretend to have one and see her reaction is Far better than having one. because having one is cheating and adultery which is a sin please talk to her gently she will understand but find something doing I heard u said only 15 times in a Month, I swear u are a sex freak relax oh why she no go complain is much na

I'm not the op. But the op made a mistake when he knew she's like that during dating time. So...

emmaodet:
I don't believe this.

Omo, the way guys are lying about this abroad something eh... 😂 😂 How! I know nurses are paid more, but not to the extent of nearly half a million. E choke oh.... Health sector in US that is under funded by their budget. Abeg.

Kingofmykingdom:
I’ve been here in US for 3 years and will be 4 years next year June and I make more than $700k annually.2022 I made $988k

Na drugs oh... This guy don join cartel... 😂 😂

oluwafreshkid:
These things don't work. We're quick to advise married men to do all these, but we forget that;
1. It's too much stress most times. Sometimes you just want this sex on-demand.
2. It doesn't take half as much to get a man in the mood, so why should a man go through all that trouble to get some? Men reason that way too.
3. After you've done all said, you still get the excuse of "I'm tired" "not in the mood" "mood swing" "not today please"

Talk to married men to get practical tips and not all these copy and paste things abeg

Getting a mistress and letting her know you are getting one and the reason, will make her Hot every day.

frankson1:
No mind the guy. He said that his friend works for the "big boys". Some people sha..

Which big boys? You know eh, Nigerians believe say once you are rich na to deh spend anyhow. UK wealthy men are prudish when it comes to spending.

amtheone:
That was how a friend of mine took loan in the UK in 2010 and bought a land in Lekki. The land was not a genuine one. She ended up repaying the loan with her salary. It was not easy for her.

This high risk money making scheme is not always as simple as u guys put it. A lot is involved.

For someone to be able to get loan, means that person has lived more than 2yrs in that country and this is in contrast to what the OP was saying.

Franchasofficial

frankson1:
Your moniker tells alot why you believed your friend who said he makes £80k per week as a plumber

E fit be say na only him deh run all plumbing work in the whole of Northern England 😂 😂

Nia69:
This is the craziest hotel you'll ever see. The devil's hotel.

Personally, I would with a partner by my side.

I'd go alone

Femmyfamous4u:
Dear Friends, i would like to know if it is normal or I am being paranoid. while we were dating i noticed that my now wife does not really like sex as we hardly do the act.

She was good in other areas so, I felt with time things will sort itself out.

After the marriage, I made it known to her clearly that I will want to have the sex as much as i desire but i must say for about three months now, we have only had it about ten times. I do not want to cheat on her but my needs are not met and I have told her this times and times again with no change.

Now, she is pregnant and it is worse. What do I do my people?

Get a mistress

irumole1975:
Seriously, I've stopped reading the hype of these guys abroad because they're making some of us feel less achieved.

One was talking about a project of #250M hotel completed in Nigeria and I don't even know if na this same abroad I dey with them too. Also talked about him being here for just two years or so and he's bought a condo home, build many hostels for student in Nigeria and on his way to complete a #250Million hotel in Nigeria also.

I been here in this abroad and I can't even boast of $10k USD. It's well Sha. I just hope they're not lying with all these things they're saying.

Na either drug dealer or yahoo boy.

hustla:
Yeah, 1yr+ now

hustla:

hustla:
