Haaaa Finland, a lovely country indeed.

I lived in Lapland for 3 years. The region is one of nature's marvel. I experienced Midnight sun, the northern lights, fished in frozen lakes, skate on frozen rivers, and wandered away in km of forest. Sweden was closed by and I bike there to shop. Memories.

But it is incredibly boring, lonely, dark and depressing. During winter, you would be lucky to have brightness for five hours a day. If not that there are foreigners around, and that we could travel out frequently, man for don run mad. Nevertheless, nature in the Nordic is a marvel.

Lapland is a marvel!
No daylight there in winter tho. 4-5 hours in Helsinki if you are lucky.
I like the dark and cold, since that forces me to get writing done, if it was sunny and warm I'd be out in all my free time and get nothing done

I love the nature here, and the quiet.

WinningSun:
what are you doing in Finland. Nigerians everywhere

I'm not Nigerian but there are Nigerians here. I had a Nigerian software engineer colleague at my old workplace. I work for a big corp. There are students, prostitutes, African shop owners from Nigeria!

PAGAN9JA:
From?

My ancestral homeland is Georgia (the Caucasian one) but I'm American and now living in Europe. Not exactly tribeless, but separated from my homeland since birth.

PAGAN9JA:
Thank you very much!

What is your tribe?

I'm a tribeless oyinbo

Sunset, frozen swamp and reeds on the shores of an island.
Swans, ducks and other sea birds nest there in spring so no one touches the reeds.
There are seaside swamps like that even in the city.

It looks like a frozen desert.
Temperature was -15
There were many ski tracks.

A walkway bridge between islands. Ice is thin under the bridges where the current is strong, better not go there.

Sunset over the frozen sea

All bodies of water freeze in winter around February and don't melt until mid-April.
Sea and lakes become skiing and ice skating grounds. People go for walks when the weather is good.

It was sunny so I went out there and took some photos. Later I heard a man died near the same area. He went skiing, went too far out where the ice is thin, the ice broke and he fell through.

I don't know if you die by freezing or drowning when that happens.

Asowari:
but I thought Nigerian is a zoo and Canada is heaven,una neva see anything keeping running frm ur country turn by turn na so dem so go carry una do shooting practice.

Canada is far from heaven bro.
There are many unsolved murders of First Nations (Canadian Native) women, it's so bad they declared it a national crisis: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Missing_and_murdered_Indigenous_women

AdolfHitlerxXx:

I hope it is actually "random" and not drug-related "development"....

Brazil last week...Canada this week

Guy was an electrical engineer who immigrated to Canada as a teenage kid. Why in the hell would he get into drug deals?
Chai! You people and your tribalism. Why do you slander a dead man you don't know?
It could be a gang initiation rite, they go around and kill a random person to get accepted into whatever gang. It could also be racists or someone who had beef with the community where the guy was living in.

ATLANTA - Renee Weiss and Miles Miller met last October at a speed dating event at Somerby Sandy Springs, a retirement community, and immediately clicked.


The event, the first of its kind at Somerby Sandy Springs, brought together 10 men and 10 women ranging in age from 75 and 96. Weiss and Miller, who live independently nearby (she lives in Alpharetta; he lives in East Cobb) heard about the event and were encouraged by friends and family to participate.

She’s 80. He’s 92.

At the event, men and women were paired up for only four minutes before the sound of a whistle signaled it was time to move spots and meet another potential love interest.

For Weiss and Miller, four minutes with each other was enough time for a love connection. They have been together ever since, recently returning from a cruise. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution recently interviewed the lovebirds, who prove it’s never too late to fall in love. The interview has been edited for length.

Also visited some other areas in the village, I got to notice that they have good roads even in their villages and 24/7 electricity with street lights.

Photos below shows a narrow road that leads to the express

That looks very pretty.

omoiyamayor:
If you have certified invitation you can get visa at Maputo airport at around $50 or so.Mozambique was a nice experience for me then.they enjoy hanging around English speaking people a lot.

Do most people speak English?

TheAlchemist:
You want the people in government that are the beneficiary of this ritual killings to do something, ain't going to happen.

People should stop electing them. Corruption and ritual killings are, as you guys say, 5&6.

BlackAdam55:
which country are u from?

Reporting from Finland! But I moved here from the States, I lived in the Hispanic majority cities most of my life.

This looks a thousands times better than the soulless grey apartments in Finland any day.

basilo102:
the way bushes are built up with multistoreys is amazing

Wow, that is real neat!
Igbos build better than the Turks, at least they leave space and vegetation between the buildings. Beautiful planning indeed.

Turks build like this: https://www.123rf.com/photo_14617259_aerial-view-of-terraced-housing-in-suburb-of-ortakoy-near-bosporus-in-istanbul-turkey.html?fromid=Mnl6Q3ZDa0VpcEdPZkpRZkRXbkpiQT09

Igbos should go teach the Turks how to build properly.
Igbos FTW!

PAGAN9JA:
No we haven't. This is exactly the point I've been trying to make. You are living and shaped by such a poisonous environment that killing is just like breathing for you. A normal function of daily life.

Murdering breeding females, especially nursing mothers is an absolute no-no in every native culture in the world. I'm a shamanist, in my belief if you commit such a heinous act, you offend the animal spirits and you will be forever cursed. Hunter-gatherer shamanist cultures have codes for reasonable hunting. I don't believe African native cultures condone such heinous acts, either.

If she was doing this in any 1st world country there would be a massive public outrage, she'd lose her job and go to prison and booed on the street.
Remember what happened to the American dentist guy who killed the lion in Africa? He didn't even do it on American soil but he was so condemned by the public he had to close shop and go into hiding.
Enlightened people like you will hopefully make a change and educate the public.

PAGAN9JA:
shut your mouth

because of maniacs like you our country is in pieces. religitards.

Know what, the religious zealot parts of the US of A are also in pieces. There is a cult called the Christian Scientists, living in the stone age, they refuse all medical care and their region has 3rd world infant death rates.

BlackAdam55:
wat is this one saying she looks more Igbo than Latinas

I don't really know what the Igbos look like, the only one I know of is Nnedi Okorafor but she looks nothing like this lady.

Reminder for the tribalists: In the eyes of the world outside of Nigeria, those are poor trafficked African women and girls.
For the Europeans, they are Nigerian trafficking victims. Europeans don't even know what Benin Kingdom is. They also haven't heard about Oba's rituals for lifting the juju curse on the girls.

The rest of the world doesn't know or care what tribe the girls came from... You guys are blaming and judging the girls. If you put aside all this tribalist bigotry and got together to fix Nigeria, none of this would have happened and Nigerian women wouldn't cross the deserts and dangerous seas to sell their bodies in foreign lands.
Shame on you for saying such horrible things about those poor girls. Some of them are underage for crying out loud!

Is the lady Nigerian? She could easily pass as a Latina!

oyetunder:
What type of erected rods and wombs are producing these vipers? These crimes are not traceable to poverty at all. Even if we create paradise out of Nigeria, some human demons shall continue to be lovers of wickedness.

Unfortunately this is true about a lot of places on this Earth. Only with high level of prosperity and education, the number of human demons gets drastically reduced.

delishpot:
Sharp guys have entered this line of biz now too. They offer initiation to foreigners for cool sum and then bring them to naija after some orientation class to get them "innitiated" the market dey sell well well.
Back to topic.... The problem of Africa is we are too open and welcoming to oyinbo. I doubt if the white men have these kinds of tradition they will allow blacks into the inner cacus of the cult. We need to learn how to keep some things away from some people. I do not support this.

They actually do. There are Africans, even Nigerians living in Nigeria in some European occult orders.

ceejayluv:
Lol at the emboldened. I like what you did there, man.

I don't get this brown roof meme. What is the meaning of it?

IgandoIkotun:
So Britain too can't appoint their own citizens to do their jobs they have to employ Nigerians to work like slaves Nigerians who have no regards to building a better Nigeria and have forgotten where home is.. It is a pity
The mentality of "everybody mind your own bussiness" has to stop in this country.

I'd pay money to see the faces of the British liberals reading this comment... Man oh man.

Innov8ve1:
The cops in america are having serious mental health issues, how will you shoot an unarmed man 20 times? Is he a beast? They recently shot an unarmed man on a wheel chair too after screaming "hands up" several times but the man was struggling to raise his arm up and was shot in cold blood. These guys are mad

They shoot disabled people, little kids, innocent pets, pregnant women, pretty much anything that moves. Or doesn't move. Far too many sociopathic lunatics in the law enforcement.

Why is there Buhari and tribalism everywhere?
Even in a soup recipe thread someone laments about how much Buhari sucks and tribalist do their tribalism thing.
You guys!

GERALD710:
Ritual murders in Kenya are EXTREMELY rare and are the preserve of two communities (out of 43) because the rest either never had witchcraft(Cushitic tribes) are too modernized(Kikuyus, the largest tribe in Kenya,) or have other weird customs,like wife inheritance and wife swapping but nothing to do with ritual killings.Even in those two communities, all in the western part of Kenya, At most 2 or three take place in a year in Kenya.In fact, I believe that only 2 have happened in the past three years to date.
And they never almost never involve children.
We do not have organ harvesting in Kenya.That has never happened(Organs harvested elsewhere have transited in the country before though) that is a phenomenon we associate with West Africans.All of you.
Actually Kenyans associate ritual killings with three nations .Liberia,Nigeria and neighbouring Tanzania whose albinos flee to Kenya during election time because politicians want their pieces in order to perform witchcraft.

It doesn't happen in Somalia and Ethiopia, at least no news stories I can find.
No need to get defensive about it bro, the fact of the matter is that it happens even in the more developed countries, rare as it may be.
Sadly, West Africa has not been as fortunate.
