If he has a working partner then it is possible.
Thanks. Yes that is possible but he said specifically he has spent £1300 to bring in his spouse. This is just for exchanging ideas and I have no business with whatever he earns.

You forgot the few Nigerians who now come get here prepared, they have sponsored jobs mainly or are professionals with jobs waiting. Work provides housing or match them we co-workers to buddy up. Some might live with relatives for up to 4 months. If your take home is £2000 a month and you live with your Aunty, can't you save "1000 a month? If you get to live in a carer's quarter and pay £450 as rent in a month cant you save £1000 a month? Now if your agency that you work for sends you to live in care then you do not need to pay rent, this can go on as long as the client is alive. I can go on and on,Im saying this cos I know the ins and out, you don't.

£3000 is N2.7 m in today's money.if you save £700 monthly for 3 months, he can save up to £2100 x900 =N1.8M plus, U gerrit it now?
Thanks but this is not normal or possible within 3 months of arrival in the UK. i.e saving £3000 in 3 months. One can hardly find its feet regardless of the job one may get. Accomodation within a month, energy cost, transport etc will at least be £1000. So it means he must have been earning after tax £2000 a month which is almost impossible for a new arrival. His story is too good to be true and cannot be generalised.

Thastie:
I have only been in the UK for 3 months and I have sent 1.2m naira home. If I was still in Nigeria I wouldn't have been able to send anything with my 95k salary. My dad n mom would still be sick and we would have to beg rich relatives to assists.
Also I have spent £1300 in bringing my spouse here so don't be naive.
Just migrate in the right way.
Which job are you doing in the UK that has brought you this much. its like you have save more than £3000 in 3 months. This can mislead new comers thinking they can make this kind of money within 3 months of arrival
Christianity Etc › Re: Woman Stops Giving Tithes In Church, Uses The Money To Build House For A Widow by ttoyetade: 8:26pm On Nov 18, 2022
thesicilian:
It's a nice gesture to take care of the weak, widows and other less privileged ones among us. For this I highly commend her selfless act.

But if my debtor uses the money she's owing me to feed the poor, I will get her arrested and charged to court. It doesn't matter how rich I am.

The same thing will probably happen if you refuse to pay your taxes because you are using the money to take care of the poor.

Not everyone must give tithes.
But if you claim to be a Christian the Bible makes it compulsory for you. Whether tithe money is misappropriated by men who claim to be God sent is irrelevant, if you don't trust your pastor then switch your place of worship.
Thank you so much. Very comprehensive response.
Travel › Re: Abroad Guys: Would You Relocate Back To Nigeria If Given $40k by ttoyetade: 3:37pm On Nov 15, 2022
OdefaGirl:
Then you are not being factual, I doubt you have lived abroad as you claimed because it's all about general safety and not only that of you and your family suggests safety in Nigeria.
You think living within your estate makes you safe? What about the kids' schools....the church, where you go to socialize..... business trips and so on, will you guarantee your so called safety in Nigeria?
thank you so much. they have a deluded understanding of security. In addition to what you mentioned, some think it is when you have police and soldiers surrounding day and night is when you have good security

to you i would be. i have lived in america, uk, canada, germany, cypprus, france, belgium, amsterdam AND i have come to the conclusion that its all rubbish. all that second class citizenship living ? is not for me. so understand that you are talking to a man who has lived abroad for over 2 decades. you are speaking to EXPERIENCE not some wet behind the ear kid
WAO what are you doing in so many countries. Why ? Were you having problem with immigration or why. I have follow your arguments and your post making sense until I got to this one. I have followed Nigeria situation for a long time, but it keep on getting worse. Once you convert that $40 to Naira, that money is gone . So thats why many people japa . The exchange rate tells the whole story . If one have a good means of leaving Nigeria, it is better to leave.

Adinije:
Does your wife complain about it?
Does she tell her mum everything that goes on in the house?
Has your MIL in any way cause friction between you and your wife? If your answers to all is No, then don't go and look for trouble that doesn't exist.

Please leave it alone.
Of course they will be discussing everything that goes on in the house, small or big thing. The best thing is to stop it now before it is too late. The wife will not be able to make her own judgement and decision and will always do what the mum tells her. I am a victim of that and will not advise anyone to allow it. The wife will trust her mum more than the husband
Politics › Re: Arise TV Debate: I Am Happy Tinubu Was Absent by ttoyetade: 9:18pm On Nov 06, 2022
swuftz:
As I watched the Live Townhall meeting organized by the Arise TV , I couldn't but be glad Tinubu was absent at the meeting.

I couldn't imagine the person of Tunubu being treated to the shoddy organisation and unprofessional presentation by the Anchor Reuben Abati.

I think Atiku deliberately sent his running mate Okowa. This type of debate is so local. It's only meant for deputies or House of Reps members to attend.

Peter Obi tried to outdo himself in most of his response especially about the security because he wanted to score cheap point but end up talking like local government chairmanship aspirant. I have to Port to another channel quick quick.
Peter Obi is down to earth man and always with the people , want to answer every question. Is this not the kind person we need now, not all these arrogant who will be lording themselve over the people. We want a leader who want to suffer what his people are suffering not the one who will be sending deputies or representative up and down

Dude if you are doing two or three jobs a day.. Forget it... You are in rat race
Thats an evidence you have just come abroad. Nobody makes noise about their wealth abroad. Whatever you have, whichever cars you ride, nobody cares not like Nigeria where you will be worshiping people because of money. Live and lets live. This year alone, I myself have made more than £190k which is the money that enters my bank account. We don't blow any trumphet to anyone. My wife doesnt even know and I do legitimate job, pay all my taxes

then make your leaders fix it... I have travelled and I know that it is not worth it...

The lonliness
The loss of Children to culture
The hand to mouth lives
The racism


Oga una no dey shame say una dey a place wey humans like una build... Make una dey shame small small naaa

Upon that una bongo still make the money... The last time I checked the rich boys in Nigeria aren't abroad based and they are doing legit business here not washing some dead bodies, plates and security jobs and old folks
You have just come abroad. Things at abroad get better with time but it could take time . You can bring your family from home, you can finish paying your mortgage and even buy bigger house or additional houses, buy new and expensive cars. People abroad don't make noise about their wealth but I can tell you the rich guys are in abroad especially with the Naira falling in international market.

The only thing against Tinubu presidency is nature, old age.

Man knows how to make anything work for him.
That old age problem is more than enough. It is not only old age but we are tired of money politics. We need a simple man easy to approach and can work with others as a team. Not the who will going about with more than 200 vehicles entourage and people have to wait for 3 hours for him to pass.
Sports › Re: Cristiano Ronaldo To Train With Manchester United Under 21s (photo) by ttoyetade: 5:55pm On Oct 21, 2022
Beverlyjean:
Ronaldo covered same distance per game as Salah last season (PL best player), did more sprints than even Kane last season, did more interception than even Jesus last season, scored more goals than United all attackers combined! Had better passing accuracy than even his playmaker Bruno...... Don't use false claims to justify your opinion, Pep wanted him cause he couldn't deny it as well when asked...... Likewise Chelsea didn't deny it


And about last season It wasn't Cristiano that disrupted the team, the team was destined to fail. Pogba and Varane were injured for the majority of the season. Maguire was terrible for the entire season and had no competition. The midfield of Fred and Mctomminay didn't work back then and still doesn't work (which is the reason why they are not played together anymore). Not to mention that Sancho didn't live up to his price tag. There is a reason why Ten Haag bought so many players. The same thing happened back at Juventus, people blaming Ronaldo for the incompetency of the manager and board. After Ronaldo left Juve only became worse. Ronaldo isn't the beast he previously was but blaming him for the terrible performance of a dysfunctional team shows how delusional some of these fans are. The reason why the team is doing better is because team has been completely overhauled and because Ten Haag actually has idea of what he is doing.
So what concerns Jesus with what you are saying. Don't call Jesus name in vain.

Hope you heard him clearly that he's praying not to disappoint you obituary people.

Does that statement mean anything to you?

Okay o, bcoz I know he doesn't have the capacity and experience. He's just being pushed by youths bcoz of disappointment of Buhari but I tell you Tinubu would do it. He's the most experienced amongst them.
All the experience that our politician have is to steal money. They dont know what it means to serve people. We don't need their experience. We want to start afresh. For the first time Nigeria will get it right if Peter Obi is elected . The giant of Africa will wake up and take its proper place among nations. We will become a model in Africa like Rwanda, Egypt . Our people in diaspora who have been stucked in various western countries will start thinking of coming home. Insecurity will become a thing of the past, stable Electricity will come to stay. Transport will work . God may this time come and meet us alive

I bet this is politics. Someone is sending a message to someone. Just as how buhari is allowing herdsmen roam freely and killing people.
I don't think this is being done by Nigerians. We have never been this wicked to our self . The killers are from accross the border and our border have been too porous especially in the North. God will console the families
Foreign Affairs › Re: Ukrainian Forces Take Back 20% Of Territory Lost in Sievierodonetsk Luhansk. by ttoyetade: 3:54pm On Jun 04, 2022
Igbofam2:
As usual and as expected all my fans from Putin supporters club have arrived above with their usual chants of "fake news" as they hold hands singing kumbaya in agony of the fact that Russia just lost 20% of Sievierodonetsk to Ukraine despite once having 70% control of the place.

One of them is even desperately shifting goalpost to something totally unrelated to this post as always just to use it to lick their wounds grin

We are talking Sievierodonetsk and one werey up there is talking about another country (Italy) when the focus is Sievierodonetsk grin

As expected I know one of them would reply this post in 5 4 3 2....
Don't mind them. Still don't know what is the reasoning behind supporting Putin. Putin started the war by invading a neutral country and yet he is loosing heavily. Russia have never done any good to Africa, yet it is the western world that open their doors to us to live and work as if you were born there, buy houses even be a member of their parliament, give aids to Africa, give you loan or grant etc. Even if they refuse to give some people visa, must they give everyone visa. It is ingratitude.
Family › Re: I Am Really Depressed, My Mom's Death Is Killing Me! by ttoyetade: 8:10pm On May 31, 2022
Amotolongbo:
Dear OP
My sincere condolence

Getting over the death of your mum is a choice.
That is, getting over your mum’s death is in your hands and no one else’s hands.
Definitely, it takes time to heal, but the time healing extent is a factor which you have the power to determine and influence. You may not heal if you decide living on the matter.

I know of a boy (last born like you) whose Mother died in 1999 when he was just 7years. Till today (at age 30) he hasn’t come off it and has no significant life achievement, now jumping from one prophet to another. Anytime I come across him, the song he sings often is “iku lo meja ka ko” (death is responsible for the fish bending), the death of his mother is responsible for his life predicaments.

There is one thing you have to bear in mind, nothing can be done to bring your mum back to life. But you have to move on with your life. Not getting over your mum’s death will surely make you stagnant in life and definitely death of your career and mental death. Your mum will never be happy seeing this if she has the opportunity to see how you are faring after her demise.

No one can help you to move on after losing your mum, they can only try. Brace up and move on to face the next challenges of life as a motherless man and not a motherless baby/boy at 29.
Very comprehensive advice. You are great councillor and adviser

Congrats on your acheivement. The only problem with the academics is that generally there is no money in it. When they ask you to bring N100k or more now, you can hardly cough it out immediately. Sometimes it is better to apply that energy for something that is more rewarding like working in good industries, make the money and live well.

It took america 20years to try to conquer Afghanistan and yet dey cudnt do it even without sanctions from other countries.

Russia only started it's war with Ukraine just three weeks ago, see their achievement even with the sanction. Putin never miscalculated anything he is progressing as planned. All this propaganda, OGA is seeing it
Why are you thinking like this. Did anyone attack Russia ? Did anyone provoke or abuse Russia ? Is Ukraine inside Russia ? Why will you attack a peaceful neighbour all because you feel or think insecure. How many countries attacked another country this way ?. Why is Putin attempting to hide the war even from his own people at home. Putin is pure evil and his downfall is near. Please think right
