The Credit Card being used in Nigeria is what you called Prepaid Credit card in which the user has to top up the card like a mobile phone unlike the more conventional credit card in the west which comes with some set minimum balance.

Its good to have ideas but this will not work in Nigeria for a number of reasons, NAMELY:

We do not have a coffee drinking culture and I am not sure it will catch on irrespective of how cool you try to make it.
For it to be profitable, I am sure the price  will be too high - in the UK i wouldn't mind a £5 -6 coffee/latte/capuchino but the same can't be said of Nigeria.
You also need to think about the costs - infrastructures, franchise fees, etc.

Hi, I just did a WHOIS check on your website and it says your domain is locked. Do know any particular reason why it is

True Blues Stand Up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This Ship is sinking fast!

Who else thinks it would have been great if Jay Jay was still there,

It wasnt a spoof. The film was actually based on the book!


Lol @ Mad Max, hope your happy now.

I will try and break this down based on my experiences:

Indonesia: Going there to study is an absolute waste of time you might as well go to Thailand or Cambodia. No prospects of work and yes, theres a lot aggro directed against blacks. There is a serious language barrier too.

Malaysia: Friendly, nice place. The capital Kuala Lumpur hosts a whole lot of Nigerians ( students / Drug Dealers / Yahooze Boys), the schools are ok but if you think of it, you can actual school in Europe. Theres absolutely no work here so if you can't get pocket money, your stuck.

Singapore: Like it was said before it is a very expensive country to live in. More like the UK except with a year round summer. I would think you would be better off in Aus or NZ.

Australia / New Zealand: Have the closest thing to a UK schooling. I would seriously recommend these two.

Japan /kOREA: Good for foreign students but your success here lies in how fast you learn the local languages.

Hey guys I want to find out how Iphone users in Nigeria are faring with regards to unlocking and upgrade to the 2.0 firmware.

lol @ yawa-ti-de , I think the owners have forgotten they had that website.

@ thor, I have just found the perfect thread for you and ur not there!!!!!!!!!

It depends on your traveling status.

Says it all doesnt it,

Old Old news,

Speaking of Nigerian Newspapers that do not update their websites, I think This Day newspaper has to got to be the worst culprit. They have still got the Jay Z, Busta Rhymes, etc tour in Nigeria from a year or two ago.

What sort of shopping cart service do you have??

I think he purposely said what he said although he might have been ignorant of the legal implications. I mostly say its the preists fault because you have to plan for these things especially when you know the Immigration officers ask random questions.

thanks for that,

Norway is good as you can work. The weather there is really bad tho,

Not good for someone who wants to work.

you wont get anything free for Msc.

How can you get a Visa without sorting the Immigration Officer thing out first??

Ur welcome.

* The three colors of Mexico’s flag hold deep significance for the country and its citizens: green represents hope and victory, white stands for the purity of Mexican ideals and red brings to mind the blood shed by the nation’s heroes.
* The flag’s dramatic emblem is based on the legend of how the Mexicas (or Aztecs) traveled from Aztlán to find the place where they could establish their empire. The god Huitzilopochtli advised them that a sign—an eagle devouring a serpent atop a Nopal cactus—would appear to them at the exact spot where they should begin construction. On a small island in the middle of a lake, the Mexicas came upon the scene exactly as Huitzilopochtli had described it. They immediately settled there and founded the city of Tenochtitlán, which is now Mexico City, the country’s capital.
* Mexico is the third-largest country in Latin America after Brazil and Argentina.

* At the beginning of the 21st century, Mexico's population surpassed 100 million.


* Mexico has the largest population of Spanish speakers in the world.

* With almost 25 million residents, Mexico City is one of the most populous metropolitan areas in the world.
* Mexico has the world’s second-highest number of Catholics after Brazil.

* At nearly 2,000 miles, the border between Mexico and the United States is the second-longest in the world, after the border between the United States and Canada.
* Mexicans comprise the largest group of legal immigrants in the United States.

* Mexico is located in an area known as the Pacific “Ring of Fire.” This region, one of Earth’s most dynamic tectonic areas, is characterized by active volcanoes and frequent seismic activity. The highest point in the country, Citlaltépetl (also called Orizaba) and the active volcano Popocatépetl are among the many volcanic peaks in Mexico.
* The Great Ball Court at Chichén Itzá Mexico, which was used for ritualistic sports by the ancient Mayans, is the largest such court the world, measuring 166 by 68 meters (545 by 232 feet). The game, which involved elements similar to those of soccer and basketball, was played by two teams whose number varied according to region.
* Tequila, a liquor for which Mexico is famous, is made from the native blue agave plant. Named after the city where it originated, Tequila is primarily manufactured near Jalisco, which is 65 kilometers (40 miles) northwest of Guadalajara.
* Mexico is the world’s leading producer of silver. An area called the Silver Belt—which encompasses Guanajuato and Zacatecas in the Mesa Central, Chihuahua in the Mesa del Norte and San Luis Potosi farther east—saw significant mining activity during the colonial period.
* Mexico hosted the Summer Olympics in 1968 and the FIFA World Cup soccer championship in 1970 and 1986.
* The Mexico City Arena—one of the largest bullfighting arenas in the world—seats 50,000. Another 35 arenas are located throughout the country.
