PoliticsRe: Peter Obi In A Group Photo With His Classmates In 1977 by Treadway: 7:45pm On Sep 22, 2022
drlateef:
If you want to know why mr integrity Peter Obi avoided putting dates in his CV, now you know. Evidence shows that he finished secondary school in Late 70s and spent about 9 years reading philosophy, only to come out with third class. That’s the truth he had been trying to hide.


A third class graduate wants to compete with a first class graduate for presidency. What an absurdity?
lol. Pa Tinubu did not graduate with a first class. He never said he did, and you have no proof of his phantom first class or even that he admitted to being one. Y'all just spreading that lie with glee.

You have made a lot of sense. This was supposed to be my conclusion on the topic. I am shocked reading what you just wrote down. I wanted to conclude by telling Nigerians to start putting more effort in what we do here like our diasporans do in Canada or Europe. Wow! You made a lot of sense that will last a lifetime for someone with a thinking cap. I am honored to have you here
yea I already mentioned this your submission a couple of times. Jobs not considered here, are suddenly acceptable. Selling duplexes to live in much tighter spaces. It's the euphoria, which is fine I guess. They are where they wanna be. But still, saving $30 a day is still very very doable for the typical Nigerian with their head screwed on properly.

OP, please as much as I'm all for balanced reporting with regard to this japa matter, your assumption is way way off the mark. Saving habits differ from person to person, financial management skills differ from person to person, pay scale also differ from person to person. Therefore, the title of your thread and that claim is outrightly preposterous. Cheers

Those are the kind of people who go abroad and are continually held back by their primitive success back in Nigeria. They can't compete on the world stage and they are satisfied with the mediocrity they are champions at back in Nigeria. We see them here all the time. Always complaining about how they were earning big back in Nigeria and can never get over that while they suffer in their survival jobs in downtown Toronto.
people like me, KNOW who they are and what we are made of. We don't settle for mediocrity here or over the sea. I'm an all or nothing kinda person. Anyone can live anywhere, e no 'consign' me. I don talk wetin dey absurd TO ME about the matter. Anyhow you or anyone else comprehends it is none of my bizwax. If you catch me in Canada or anywhere else, I'm coming as a solution/job provider sef, not as a worker. Where I am on Maslow's hierarchy of needs differs from yours. And I don't even need to have millions to be there. Ciao.

Lol... In life, there is no easy way out. There's no medal given for being in one country or another. Many of the achievers we know are those who left their comfort zone to improve themselves, conquer other worlds and return. I'm sure you have remained where your ancestors originated.

Man has always been a migratory being and even within a nation, people migrate for different reasons. You could ask our leaders why they send their kids abroad to study and return to pick up the juicy jobs.

The fact that you loiter around the travel section shows you're interested in travel. Quite an irony.
the volume of your posts here is mind-boggling, yet i'm the one loitering. Once again, slow your role! Your positions and assumptions are wayyyy off. I have already stated my ONLY reason for considering travelling earlier. Conquering the world and having that mindset is what I'm preaching and living, but that isn't what the wave of Nigerians are doing. They want to just get to the white man's land. Which is why many won't even mind doing jobs they wouldn't touch with a ten-foot pole at home. And end up with humble, uninspiring lives. This is what most settle for and are ok with (you said so yourself), as long as it is in the white man's land. I never can quite understand that. Ciao!

In this same Nigeria that we are in.

Earning 600k and saving 500k?
How many single people can actually boast of earning 600k per month in Nigeria? I believe you have not been to Nigeria for a long time and you do not have a clear picture of how things are in Nigeria.

I know you are trying to let people know how things are in Canade, but you people should stop "romaticizing" Nigeria, if you were able to save like that when you were in Nigeria, you wouldn't have left.
they left because of misleading threads, the thrill of the wuruwuru conversions and the bandwagon effect. Believe me, most people leaving are leaving cos everyone seems to be leaving. No plan, no ambition. I just must japa too. Believe it. Nigeria is a shithole confirmed, but those that will stinkingly prosper in it will still prosper. Do you realise, most of the averagely well to do ppl, were actually pretty comfy. Had a car, some sef house, 24hr electricity. But yearned for more, which isn't a bad thing. Security is important. Access to healthcare and good education is important. But over there comes with its own challenges, moral decadence and pollution (most of the japarians should be warming up to have many LGBTQ children in a few years time, for sure), racism, inclement weather, gangs and gun violence in some places, rocky marriages (if you like deny this) etc. Me personally, that first one bothers me a lot. I would rather my kids are teens, well formed and not so impressionable, before sending them there for education, assuming the educational system is still decayed here by then. The thing is there are so many things to consider both ways, that most right now aren't even thinking about. They just want to japa and be making 20million naira per month based off of wuruwuru conversions they saw on Nairaland...oh and to be able to take pictures in the abroad too...lol. hilarious

I weak for some people, one should be happy that people are japa successful, so one day make the blessings reach am. Life is all about risk, if one remain in he's/her confort zone, the goodies on the other side wouldn't be experienced.
your opinion. But you lot are missing the point of all this. Even fellow Christians like I am. So your blessings are only in another man's land? Ppl get a visa and do Thanksgiving? You lot don't see that there is a mental anomaly going on here. God does have a diff plan for everyone. For some, it is God's plan to move outside the shores of your country, but for most it is our own plan which comes from a very deep-seated place of inadequacy or inferiority. Like you legit believe you are not blessed and God hasn't answered your prayer until you go to the white man's land. One thing this thread and the many like it have proven is that the white man will always be superior. Pre or post colonization, even if there is a reset of the world today, the white man is and will always be 10x superior to the black man, EXCEPT ME sha. It is sad, really sad. I'm looking into start-up visas, due to the fact that the infrastructure to support my brain-child isn't yet available or firmly rooted in Nigeria. If that doesn't work, that's it. I ain't never gonna sell all I have built up here to get on a ship to the white man's land to hustle. My forefathers already did that.

This your number 3 point is really the catalyst for most Japas you know.
When they here the amount you earn in pounds or dollars, they do the calculation and then start dreaming about the kind of life they will live in nigeria.
You earn in pounds, you are working and staying in UK so why calculating in nairas?
If all people traveling out are to work, stay and live ever after in whichever country they find themselves without coming back, I can safely say 75% of them will only have a small house to show with 1 or 2 cars after 20/25 years of rigorous hustling.
The only succor they have is that regular converting to naira as a hope they will meet up.
guy you couldn't have said it any better. I asked a question on one Canada thread a few days ago, make all the noisemakers mention assets owned and fully paid for for the duration of their time in Canada. Na radio silence I get o. Same people always bragging about making 20million naira per month after their wuruwuru conversion now suddenly felt keeping whatever they have to show for their years in Canny or elsewhere private. They don't understand that the only basis for their slight upper hand in recent years is the dwindling naira. I bought a 1000usd watch in 2014 just for fun and I wasn't earning 500k. I brought in scanners worth 4000usd and shipped with DHL another 800usd in that same year. And one person prolly using a car that cost 3k USD with no shipping and clearing costs wan buga me wey get two fully paid for with shipping and clearing, and in my own house also fully paid for, however small it is. Most of them no get NADA to their name. Maybe a few have the balls to take a mortgage lobatan. Before most of these noisemakers strike gold, some still stay upwards of 15-20years. Do they know what I can achieve here in 15-20years. It is the arrogance for me, all of a sudden you are better, richer and wiser now simply cos you stepped foot in another country. Lol. We know naija has its issues and there are valid reason to japa, but please enough with the 'noise and no show' most times. Like say we no get friends wey don dey these countries up to 10years, most of which don't OWN the things we own, at least as at now. Abeg.

I thought there'd be responses by now. It's just redundant always reading, 'i know people who are making xyz' or 'my friend is doing abc'. I would like to read true to God honest responses on the above, from someone directly, not a friend or someone they know. This notion of significant prosperity as described in this thread and other threads, should be a commonplace thing with many attested beneficiaries.

One request, just one and pls tell the truth as God is your witness. I want one person currently in Canada to tell me.

1. How long you have been in Canada
2. What assets your wealth has bought you in Nigeria in that time or elsewhere. Not borrowed assets or installment payments/mortgage o. Actual liquid assets you have paid for in full in that time frame. I want to compare something.

Hope to not get caught in this one-way web (cos not everyone knowingly drove into one-way), but if for whatever reason I do and my car is about to be impounded. I will invoke my last right to damage my car there and then. Lastma has the right to impound but only the court has right to grant forfeiture.. I will destroy that car before it ever gets to the yard or court. No One else will use it. Coke and mentos is all I need to do the trick, or just open the engine oil cap, with a sprinkle of bashed windscreen, windows and stabbed tyres. Na that day dem go see new display never seen before. If I will lose the car might as well lose it on my terms...I no go fight anybody, I go just kuma destroy the car. Lol

small small ehn. Dealing with what for 15 years, the 15 year-old boy was born mad?? Cos that is what you are indirectly saying. The fact is the so called mental problem is just an excuse. I'm very sure it isn't schizophrenia (actual madness), but rather some flimsy emotional mess the white man tags mental illness. Mood swing sef na mental illness, they now call them bipolar disorders. Even a raving mad kid here, won't do that shit. Moreso, with the recent gofundme angle, I'm very tempted to believe the whole thing was staged.

Car TalkRe: Toyota Won't Start After Removing Battery by Treadway:
EazyMoh:
Ok cars is just scanned and show only immobiliser code.
The problem I believe is not caused by the washing of engine bay but rather disconnecting the battery.
I found weird wires in the engine bay. Its actually an American socket main connected somewhere into the engine.
that wire has nothing to do with it. It is usu in most toks cars somewhere ard the battery/radiator side, for both Canadian and American. Tried googling what it was used for back in the day, but didn't really get the answer I was looking for. Na to look for specialist be that, or ask the seller. Maybe he knows the procedure to reset it. Chances are he would have disconnected the battery at some point in the past,and may know how to navigate this. Finally, stop washing engine bay. You can clean, but don't wash. I hope you get this sorted ASAP.
Car TalkRe: Toyota Won't Start After Removing Battery by Treadway:
I see this a lot. People washing engine bay like it is a plate. With high pressure hose at that. Very very wrong practice. Even back when I dey sell toks cars, I 'detail' the engine bay myself, by hand, meticulously area by area, till it is done. You clean the area, with damp clothes, brushes etc, not spray the area with a high pressure hose. Someone bought a car from me just like this and was calling a few weeks later to tell stories just like yours. I was livid, me wey don dey fear say wetin fit happen to a pristine car, only to find out he went to submerge the engine bay in water. My response to him is the same I'm about to tell you, 'Get a competent mechanic to troubleshoot that car'. Hopefully whatever has been damaged won't cost you too much.
