Celebrities / Re: Georgina Onuoha Blasts CNN For Not Covering Nigerian Elections by Tats(m): 10:47am On Feb 24, 2019
Elections were postponed. If they had made their plans and the date changed, do you think they would return when they would have already planned to be somewhere else at the time it was rescheduled to? Westerners generally plan everything. Having said that, I would have expected that they have permanent correspondents in Nigeria who would have at least reported something. I watched Aljazeera and didn’t switch to CNN so can’t say what they reported or not.

You still don't understand the concept of giving someone a gift. And yes, food can be a gift, a song can be a gift, a message can be a gift...

Bros stop confining yourself to material things... Life is way more than all that.

Even perfume which is usually given as a gift will finish one day, although the food gift will finish more quickly. grin

Romance / Re: Man Gets Banana & Groundnut As Valentine Gift From The Cleaning Lady At Work by Tats(m): 4:58pm On Feb 14, 2019
Cleaners or people who do menial jobs are hardly recognised in the workplace.
I don't know the context of her giving him this gift but perhaps the guy acknowledges the lady and others like her and she appreciated that.
So, it could be her own way of saying thanks to him. As someone said, it is widows mite and so I don't think the gift should be despised.

He was probably disgusted at her, coming to a white mans country to be a begger

It plays into the western narrative that africans are beggers and paupers, but i dont expect you to understand that

I agree he was probably disgusted at her coming to a white man’s country to be a beggar. He did have a bit of looking down on Africans attitude though. He should by now be knowledgable about why Africans tend to look for every opportunity to go to developed countries as he clearly mentioned that Africans go to europe, Canada and America, but he still choose to demean her. I clearly don’t condone her nonsense but the guy had an agenda.

The western narrative that Africans are beggars and paupers is not going to change in our generation, not especially with all the nonsense going on with many African rulers.

I agree he was probably disgusted but what would he say to black Americans that beg on the streets of America? He should by now be more knowledgeable about Africa and why many Africans seize any opportunity to travel out. The perception about Africans being beggars and paupers is not going to change in our generation. It would take a lot to change it.

The guy that interviewed her is black. Didn’t you see his hands?
That is why she was calling him brother and he said I am not your brother, I am an American. He is most definitely a black American and it’s no secret that they don’t like black Africans. The lady is clearly disgracing Nigeria but it is what the people in government past and present have turned Nigerians into.

Celebrities / Re: Rapper 21 Savage Arrested By US Immigration, May Be Deported To The UK by Tats(m): 5:05pm On Feb 04, 2019
Firstly, someone would have applied for a US visa on his behalf and flown with him to the US because he was 13 when he arrived. Who did he live with after arriving? He seems to me to now be like a DACA child but his complication is that he is still from a developed country and they wont see any reason not to return him. He is clearly all Americanised now. Could it even be that he does not know his papers were not regularised?

The guy has most certainly not travelled abroad for any show and may also have an expired UK passport. Nobody would have asked him for his papers as its the entertainment industry where he is an entertainer and whereas, who would have though that he was not American with all the accent and the hood life stories.

Politics / Re: The Loophole Atiku Exploited To Visit USA by Tats(m): 7:51pm On Jan 18, 2019
JusticeSeeker:
This may be true. Reason been that the Nigerian embassy has no information about Atiku's visit to the US.

There’s no requirement that Nigerian embassy should know about his visit. Most Nigerian officials inform the embassy because they want the embassy to provide services like driver/car, guest house etc. Atiku doesn’t need all that and whereas informing the embassy headed by someone likely appointed by APC automatically gives away the surprise element of his trip.

Travel / Re: The New & Yet-to-be Used Ikeja Bus Terminal Is Being Reconstructed (PHOTOS) by Tats(m): 4:03pm On Jan 14, 2019
Turning the area around the Bus terminal to a shopping mall is not the best. This is all aimed at maximising revenue to the detriment of the sanity of the place and its clearly an afterthought. The whole area becomes congested and its all back to square one. If the land was huge, then its a different case. It looks like the car park spaces meant for short stay drop off or pick up of passengers is now being used for the mall and any spaces left will now be competing as car park for shoppers and it will no longer be convenient for passengers. There should only be a few shops or restaurants selling refreshments and food inside the terminal for passengers.

Travel / Re: His Uncle Seized His Travelling Documents And UK Work Permit by Tats(m): 1:06pm On Dec 11, 2018
ednut1:
so the uncle presented the passport to immigration for him hahahaha, ur a joker. if true he would simply go to nigeria embassy in london and report it missing. ur story no gel. ur guy prob has a visiting visa which had expired

There is usually no immigration checks on exit from the UK. The only place where you need to show your passport is at check in counter and when boarding the aircraft. It is possible to hold onto someone else's passport in this scenario if you are travelling with them and are the main traveller. Boarding pass alone is enough to get into security for checks after check in.

To the OP,
What category of work permit is it? If it is tied to an employer and the employer is the uncle, then getting it reissued in Nigeria would be difficult. Even if it isn't tied to the uncle, it may be difficult to get it reissued in Nigeria. I wonder why the person agreed to return to Nigeria. Returning for holiday is a known trick to return people to Nigeria against their will.

You are right but she has no one but herself to blame. If she takes it out on any one of those involved (sister, mum or Fiance), then she is even worse than thought and it was the right decision taken by those involved.
Health / Re: Women Who SNORE Have A Higher Risk Of Developing Heart Disease, Study Warns by Tats(m): 3:15am On Dec 01, 2018
That is how people discount such studies. It affects men too and many people have OSA in Nigeria but don’t get it diagnosed and it leads to early death. You wake up in the morning after sleeping for not less than 6 or 7 hours and when your alarm sounds, you ask yourself “did i sleep at all??”. You get to work or school feeling sleepy all day or doze off in meetings, sessions or conferences like most of our old men do, coupled with minimal energy to do things. You heart has to pump extra hard at night and your brain is deprived of oxygen many times in the night. In the UK, they wouldn’t waste time in giving you a CPAP machine for free on the NHS and that changes people’s lives.
