Good job reinforcing some of the negative stereotypes these folks have for people like you.

I’m sure they’re sharing the same video in far right WhatsApp and telegram groups.
My thoughts exactly!

Her video is going to be posted on right wing channels as one of disadvantages of immigration. They don't care that she's only acting a skit, it'll probably be presented as "Drug up illegal African suffers psychiatric episode on the streets of England".

The beauty of international trade and reduction of trade deficits.
Airbus , a German airplane manufacturer is the biggest in the world, and yet Lufthansa German airline had to buy some amount of Boeing planes(an American plane)
Not nitpicking. It is not totally correct to call Airbus German. It's owned in part by the French, German, and Spanish governments as well as other investors.
FamilyRe: My Fiancée Called Off Our Wedding With Four Days To Go by seunajia: 1:12pm On May 08, 2024
People raised by single parents are usually dysfunctional in marriage or in a relationship because of their own circumstances.

Being raised by a single parent would include absent parents. That is, mom and dad are together but one of them lives separately because of circumstances including working out of town.

The only way out of that loop is if the subject recognises this issue and compensates for it. Unfortunately, you already have kids with her and she's going to bring them up with her poorly ways. Please try to be there for those kids as much as you can.

The guy was all over the place accusing people of hating on him for asking him about the source of his wealth and or asking him to be clear to his followers about how home purchases in the western world works.

Although he didn't say, I think he probably has a mortgage. When you get a mortgage, your lender gives you a set amount of money to buy the home. You agree to pay back your loan – with interest – over a period of several years.

A $150,000 30-year mortgage with a 4% interest rate comes with about a $716 monthly payment. The exact costs will depend on your loan's term and other details. Details such as his status in the US being he's Nigerian, his deposit contribution to the home (10-20% of the price of the home), his credit score, etc, will be factored in.

TBH, some of the people asking questions were genuine, others were just trolling him. Better to avoid posting things like that on social media in the first place. You also don't want to give people the wrong impression about how life abroad is.

yes ! I can afford it from my Nigeria investment! So am talking from what am seening to guide others especially those on a budgets ,taking loans etc . My brother that was driving a Honda 2013 in Nigeria started using bicycle in Ireland ( is that progress or retrogression) when if friend have moved to 2016 ! He was living in 2 bedroom in abuja then in Ireland he housing shortage to crisis level he started staying in shared room for 400 euro per month (paying 300k to share room not even house) is that progress after paying 12000 euros ! Then they used several scheme like stamp 1 visa stamp 2 to make it difficult for you to get professional job after graduation ! with a Master degree you be doing physical slave work in the cool ! He back in Nigeria and started working rearranging his life ! Sadly even with 12000 euro Msc na level 9 firs give am same with 60000 Naira msc from Ekiti state university.
This man, you're citing the worst experience in discouraging people from taking a chance of a better life/future. Another person can cite examples of hundreds of thousands of Nigerians in the diaspora doing excellently well.

Worse still, your brother couldn't get more than a 60k job in the same Nigeria you're encouraging folks to stay back in! According today's rate, your brother's monthly salary is hardly equal to the daily wage of a blue collar worker in the same UK you're shitting on!

I am pretty sure you posted here some years ago about your wife and kids moving to Scotland and then you mentioned that you were considering joining them or shuttling. You also wrote that you sponsored your brother for his masters in Ireland on the Ireland visa thread.

This was years ago. As a student or a single person, you can put up with a not too optimum situation just to "balance your books" insofar it's not illegal and you keep your eyes fixed on the ball, you'll be fine �

Mahn, I feel you, it was crazy. An angle was that I left my great job in Lagos to pursue the better life only to end up doing menial jobs to survive. However, it has been for the best so far.

Here's my take: Don't do it for yourself, you may be comfortable, you may have a job, house and car, what about your children? Do you think they'd have the same opportunities as you? Does it look like Nigeria will do right by them? Give them a fighting chance if you can. Enough said.

PS: people, please don't come abroad by force, do only what is legally allowed.
TravelRe: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 2) by seunajia: 1:27am On Oct 09, 2021
This thread reminds me of my time in the UK - studying full-time and working as a porter in Lang Stracht just to survive. I worked from Fridays to Sundays because there were no classes on Fridays. Although the restaurant I worked with offered more hours, I had to stick to the 20 hours PW term time quota because I was dead scared of flouting the visa rule and ending up in Lagos. I knew so many guys who did 40 hours PW and nothing happened to them, but mahn, I was a good lad grin To balance my account, I worked hyper during the holiday periods.

At the minimum, I earned 600 GBP PM, my rent in a single room shared apartment was around 210 GBP PM, living expenses was low because I always had food from work and I lived with a wonderful Nigerian lady who worked part-time as a chef. In all, I worked as a porter, a ticketing agent in a club, cashier, service at events and as a kitchen hand.

For me, it was back breaking work but it helped pay the remainder of my tuition, my monthly rent and bills, the money I sent home and the land I bought in Lagos. And against all odds, I still graduated with a first and with the class prize.

The story still plenty cheesy Shout outs to ABZ!

Waste of Resources ! Waste of time!

What the World calls "Climate Change" is a Great Deception from the Pit of Hell to keep on Deceiving humanity. There is nothing, Leaders, technology or So called Super Power Nations can do about the Climate. Infact the more they try to do anything , the More Disaster Hits!

The Devastating Events we are witnessing in the Weather are not " Accidents" nor are they Merely " Natural cycle of things".

The Extreme Weather pattern we are Experiencing is ALMIGHTY GOD Warning and letting us know that our LORD and SAVIOR, JESUS CHRIST is set to return.

All that is needed as World Leaders and People is turn to JESUS Christ and Stop Advancing evils, Abomination and Wickedness that is being done today in various names.

Outside this, if you Like put all the trillions and Billions of US Dollars , it will yield Greater Disatrous Disaters!

Hmm this your history get as e be. Not really true
It is. The people of Bini may not be Yorubas (although there's a shared history, however that's not the point here), but the kings were by blood. This was evident in the culture, rights and language of court being Yoruba.

https://www.jstor.org/stable/40465021

It is just as the blood line of the English throne is German. The House of Windsor is the reigning royal house of the United Kingdom and the other Commonwealth realms. In 1901, the House of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha (a branch of the House of Wettin) succeeded the House of Hanover to the British monarchy with the accession of King Edward VII, son of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha. In 1917, the name of the royal house was changed from the anglicised German Saxe-Coburg and Gotha to the English Windsor because of anti-German sentiment in the United Kingdom during World War I.

https://doi.org/10.1111%2F1467-954X.00200

Note that I have neither claimed Yoruba ownership of Benin nor it's current Kings, all that is history as neither the English throne nor the German people lay any particular emphasis on the German origins of the throne anymore.

PoliticsRe: Nigeria’s Debts: How Each Nigerian Owes ₦155,000 by seunajia: 7:35am On Sep 23, 2020
I pay more than that in taxes to the useless FG every month, so I don't owe anybody a dime.

National debt is not a bad thing if it's used to finance infrastructural development and to create jobs. For example, the UK's national debt is about £2.4 Trillion which is more 100% of the country's GDP, that is, about £38.650 per citizen and £66.477 per taxpayer.

However, in Nigeria, we all know where the money that is generated or borrowed goes to.

The port of Dover is the closest channel port linking the UK and France/EU. There's the port of Calais on the French side.

This is one of the immediate "benefits" of BREXIT. These ports have the highest passenger traffic between them. So any delays due to customs checks will cause gridlocks as you can see in these pictures.

The UK keeps losing relevance with more conservatism and isolationist policies, but the English seem to be happy with this. They've gone from the empire on which the sun never sets to a tiny island in western europe.

Scotland is soon to be free. Wales is tethered to England for economic reasons. Maybe the Irish will get Northern Ireland back and we can have a united Eire once more kiss
