well, its a tough debate.

YOUNGELDER1:
the first person with the correct direction get airtime worth #400 From me .

why do people come to nairaland to ask questions on getting from point A to point B when they could just as easily find out from people around them?

as per your Jibowu reference, I doubt nobody knows what you mean. Why do you need nairaland to express it?

seems there is fear over completing or installing this project.

kinharold:
Guy, if you are in Port Harcourt or know Port Harcourt, you will NEVER advice any government, Company or individual to be part of that project. IT HAS COMPLETELY NO economic value to port Harcourt and Rivers state. Please, visit the location, check and ask questions. .

have you seen anywhere in the world where train service has no economic value in an industrial and economic hub?

If you are fighting for okada riders, keke napep drivers, etc, are you aware they can be employed by the train service if completed, and if they enroll in training for jobs they can fit into there?

HandsomeChris:
Okay this isn't getting funny. Ladies should learn how to use their cutlery before accepting to go on a date with any guy especially a cute guy who got swag
I took this babe to a fast food here in port harcourt, she couldn't even use the fork and knife they provided for eating. It was so embarrassing that she was so pretty but lack some useful eating skill a girl should possess.
She pretended she didn't like the chicken and went forward to get a nylon bag to put and take the chicken home so as she approached the selling stand, my friend who was sitting close to me with his babe, noticed it and took this picture. He didn't want to make it obvious so she won't understand. Please ladies; learn basic eating/cutlery skills. Your beauty is in vain when you disgrace your partner outside.

why did you use soar instead of sour?

I saw this topic about five years ago maybe.

The poster was complaining the girl used left hand or something.

Op was it you?

who are you again now?

I am tired of all these unnecessary "knowings" oh, you people should get a life.

If I dont know you, dont know me.

are you gay btw, think i saw a gay thread in your post history.

.

you are misreading my post.

mikkypel:
You must follow the country of your choice army to a deadly war against a very deadly opposition, if you come out alive, then congrats, you are a citizen

or check the requirements for citizenship of the country you want to apply to, and if you meet them, send your application in.

banmee:
Against the German war machine that took over the entire Europe? I say again; against the German war machine that took over the entire Europe? Ok.....

different context.

I wasnt referring to WWII but precolonial Nigeria.

misread you I guess!

but that stalking, jungle beast comment refers to actual Nigerian or African practices.

banmee:
E don tey wey Nigerians have been living in delusion. Bow and arrow indeed. Lol....

Some Nigerian tribes were known for archery.

has it been sorted out now?

interesting write up.

How does being Nigerian American translate as having low self esteem?

Imagine being told you don't deserve a right you have inherited from birth.

Imagine being told this right should be taken away from you.

Imagine being labelled and told you are only being used.

That is how anchor babies feel every day of their lives.

Anchor babies refer to children born to non-citizen parents in a country that has birthright citizenship, such as the United States of America.

Those against immigration or helping illegal aliens believe the sole purpose of these babies is to provide citizenship to parents.

It is not plausible to them that these babies are born because the parents wanted a child.

Those labeled as “anchor babies” are viewed as providing an advantage to family members seeking to secure citizenship or legal residency.

As someone who has been labeled an anchor baby, let me tell you this is not true.

The reality is, there are many popular misconceptions around anchor babies.

While there are people who try to get around the system for their own benefit, this is not the norm.

Should we label everyone based on a small group?

Most do not fall under this category, and many of our families don’t have the money to do so.

For most people, it just so happened these people became pregnant while living in the United States.

According to US federal law, no one under the age of 21 can sponsor his or her parents.

This “plan” is not a viable short- or long-term plan.

There is no guarantee and no immediate reward.

In theory, a parent would have to stay in hiding for 21 years.

This is a pipe dream.

I was born and raised in the United States, and I can speak perfect English.

My parents were illegal, and they moved us to Canada when I was 12.

This is not uncommon.

Many non-citizens move to different countries once they realize citizenship will not happen in the United States.

This happens on the daily, as more and more illegal immigrants are being sent back to their home countries.

My parents have been happily married for 23 years, and I recently turned 21.

Despite the way the media portrays anchor babies, my parents love me unconditionally.

Contrary to popular belief, they had me because they wanted a child, not because they needed a child.

I haven't sponsored my parents, and they have never once pressured me to sponsor them.

Surprise, surprise: They actually love me and support me.

I see myself as an American.

I pride myself on being an American.

How come I am seen as undeserving of this citizenship?

I never thought much about being labeled as an anchor baby until I realized just how much it affects who I am.

A few months ago, I was crossing the border to return to New York City for the holidays.

At the border, the officer asked me, “How were you born in the US? Why were you born here?”

It took me a few minutes to come up with a response.

Telling him, “I don't know sir, you'd have to ask my parents” probably wasn't the best answer.

The truth is, I was born in the United States because my parents resided here (legally at the time).

As for how I was born?

Well, if you want me to explain the process of birth, I could go right ahead and do that.

After that incident, it happened to me two more times.

I felt attacked, and it was as if my answers for explaining my birth were unsatisfactory.

When you feel attacked about something you can't change, it makes you feel like sh*t.

As sad as it is, I’m used to being profiled and stereotyped.

After all, I’m a visible minority.

All my life, I thought the only profiling I would have to fight against was how I looked.

I never thought I would have to defend my birth as well.

I didn't think people would question my birthplace or tell me I didn't deserve my citizenship.

How wrong I was.

yes, who was the bow and arrow chief?

sounds like hunger games.

aaronson:
Like I said, Go study thoroughly, WW11 was survival of race prior to political segregation and agenda. Before the war Hitler never hated no race now something aroused his hatred for Jews. Do you care to research thoroughly on that? I guess No!

Germany was the colonial masters of some Africa countries why didn't Hitler punish blacks then if he hated all race?

How come Germany he brought Germany out of the recession and improved the well being of the average German back then, if he was all that mean and wicked?

Those are questions and more questions to make your research on, you just like the rest gullible people whom the media has brain washed. Like I said, No point doing this with you because you haven't studied yet.

the blacks had been punished long before he came to power.

but the story I saw earlier today on another thread, said the marriage was 30 years.

seems like a lot of steps, and the hop from quiting job to getting $500,000 in funding, would not be as easy as the gif makes it look imo.

@ leofab

whatever!

The foreigners whose ass you spend all your time kissing, dont respect you.

Yahoo has been attempting to sell off its search, mail and news sites for some time,
