vicky85: I wake up everyday to read more about Cynthia. Gods way is pure and good. She was born with a silver spoon and yet used Love Machine intimacy gadget. Why is it that richmen children are unwise. 70% of them cos not all of them. We need to be more closer to God. I don't believe in meeting my husband on internet.I have never believed in that. I will marry,someone I have know before now.

bokohalal: It is the money that build houses with gates and turrets and sentry posts and generators and boreholes and exotic cars. Some even pay their maigadis from here.
if you say so.

personally, i believe the bulk of the $9 billion or N1.7 trillion, isnt generated by the average nigerian overseas.

i could be wrong however.

occam: Naira. equivalent $11b
drzed: Look carefully: it is N1.7 trillion NOT $1.7 trillion.
ok.

thanks for the correction.

seems after marriage (or any celebration), the next thing people look forward to is the funeral.

ok, now it's $1.7 trillion.

so, is it the N100 being sent to their girlfriends by some posters on this thread, to make a part payment on brazilian hair and blackberry phone, that adds up to $9 million or $9 billion? huh

in any case, like i pointed out before, you are clueless.

Ighodaro jokes that many resident may not be able to pronounce his name at first try.

It’s pronounced “Eh-ruh-boar E-ho-dah-row’

“I know its difficult, but it’s my name,” he said.
part of what adds to the stress and frustration.

you are forced to spell and pronounce your name multiple times in the course of one day, unlike in nigeria where people get it at one go.
eg to spell abacha: a as in apple, b as in burukutu, a as in akara, c as in command, h as in ow are you, a as in africa.

etc etc. You spend ten minutes for what in nigeria, would only take you two seconds.



As the eighth oldest sibling out of a crowded household of 18 children, Ighodaro said conflict resolution was a must to navigate the intricacies of family life. He and his brothers and sisters were born and raised Benin, Nigeria, a province nearly two hours away from the country’s former capital Lagos.

His father, a chief of the Edo tribe, had three wives, a common cultural tradition in Africa.
more culture shock.

many nigerians come from a background of polygamy and find the monogamy overseas, very strange.

this can also be frustrating, and in addition, they resent women having "too much power".

Family › Re: What Would You Do If Someone Called Your Kid Ugly? by tpia5: 4:55pm On Oct 05, 2012
i just dont know the kind of demonic illiterates wey full this place.

yet they are the ones who are very quick to open threads.

these are the same people who engage in "naming conventions"- ie asking others which names do you find ugly, which names must you never give your child, which names should we abuse today, etc.

makes me understand why some are calling for the separation of nigeria because some of these people are just too terribly uncivilized.

[quote author=val_dubem]i just upgraded mine yesterday but it aint working. I went back to their office and reported, they said the only help I can get from them is to call their customer care. its very bad. I've been calling them for the past 29hrs and they re not picking.[/quote]must be bad if you've been calling them for the past 29 hours.


any correlation to the usual 24 hour day? huh

adconline: Here is something to consider. It takes 6hrs for most flights from Naija to EU, so if GEJ gets heart attack, he's going to die before he gets to EU, but a Naija in EU gets that world class medical attention immediately.
You live in Naija with all ur money, your life span is less than 50 years, you live in EU/US your life span is above 70yrs.
just curious- can you, personally, tell me of any nigerian overseas who has resided permanently there (with minimal or no visits to naija) and lived to up to 70 years while doing so.

i dont seem to know of any, for some reason.

However, i do know of my grandparents who never set foot overseas in their lives, yet every one of them clocked over 80. Despite not being educated or having access to state of the art healthcare systems.

just wondering.

of course I'm not knocking abroad but one occasionally notices such things.

true that even though you yourself dont understand your statement.


unfortunately, in typical nigerian fashion, the discussion has geared elsewhere besides the actual topic.

nobody has a clue.

Nigerians based abroad are more of a nuisance on NL than those at home
actually, can you honestly dispute this fact.


even the catankerous home-based ones [ie the home based nlers who are troublemakers], are heavily influenced by their overseas brethren.

pro01: You frustrated, forlorn old witch, what are you doing here? You should know there's no hope of finding a husband here if you can't find one in real life. Take your decaying ass to Jesus, for He alone can love you the way you are.
yes, we all know your life is pathetic.

so, keep ranting if that relieves your uselessness.

feel free to abuse your penis addicted mother- we can all see how it affected you.

Politics › Re: Why Are Nigerians In Diaspora So Bitter? by tpia5:
its the frustration of living abroad.

many nigerians arent familiar with the concept of being judged by your skin colour, ethnicity, or country of origin, until they travel overseas and mingle with other races.



the status quo over there nows turns into transferred aggression and hatred of nigeria/ns.

they also see it as a chance to settle old scores and grudges which, had they not left nigeria, wouldnt have been a priority.
