Politics / Re: Nigerians Abroad Our Worst Enemy-dora Akunyili by tundeyoung: 7:38pm On Mar 31, 2009
Nigerians in the Diaspora, Nigeria's worst enemies?

Well, I've heard people in government making these kind of remarks in the past and I feel unusually energized to say something about this.

No Nigerian within the borders of our homeland can claim to love Nigeria more that those of us in the Diaspora. Frank Iweke (Jnr) sang the same tune while he was globe-trottling with his Heart of Africa project and Now, 1.25 billion naira after, we all know what came out of it.

I was in the same hall on the 24th of February, 2007 when Mr. Nweke spoke so sweetly to a listening audience of Nigerians in Houston about the need to clean up the image of Nigeria. Eventhough, a few people in the audience thought it was another opportunity to waste the resources so badly needed to fix things back home, majority still gave the then minister of information listening ears. Is it not wise then, to put on the table how 1.25 billion naira was spent of this similar exercise and the corresponding result?

Why do our leaders always act in such a way as to suggest that Nigerians are all fools? In other places, you don't just sweep a major project under the carpet and come up with another one and expect people to applaud.

If Nigerians in the Diaspora are the worst critics of Nigerian governments (emphasized), it is because they have become enlightened to see life differently.

No doubt, Nigeria is country whose image have been heavily battered and can use some image make-over. But are the negative things said about us all wrong? You don't treat eczema by applying make up over it. Are our leaders corrupt, or not? Are our people suffering in the midst of aboundace, or not?

A good business manager would tell you good branding starts with the product itself, not the packaging. Take Lagos. Three years ago, Osodi was depicted in an ABC documentary as one of the worst places on earth. But today, the transformation of Osodi is not only a pride to Lagos but the whole of Nigeria. A demonstration of who we are, if only we put the right people in government.

While, I hold Prof Akinyuli in high esteeem for her patriotic work at NAFDAC, I believe the Rebranding idea was designed to smare her record. Up till today, we still have people in government acquring choice estates in major US cities and other parts of the worls with money stolen out of Nigeria while our people back home can not boast of something close to decent living.

I know those who want to blind-fold us would say there's no country in the world where there is no corruption. I agree. But what they fail to tell us is that, more people get away with looting in Nigeria than in other decent societies we like to emulate. It is only in our land that people with serious corruption allegations are recycled from government to government. In other societies, people resigns their appointments in dignity. But loots in Nigeria will sit tight and fight to the finish, alwas claiming to do it in the interest of the people.

Rather than making sweeping remarks at Nigerians in the Diaspora, Nigerian leaders should demonstrate genuine love for our land and our people by talking less and acting more in making life worth living for Nigerians.

I guess my point is: the prof and her team should begin the rebrading idea at the door steps of these people.

I have spoken.

Business / Re: Business Name Registration In Nigeria by tundeyoung: 8:21am On Oct 06, 2007
My advice: try the law firm of Dare Aguda (www.justicedareaguda.com). He specializes in Business Registration and he's a retired high court justice.

I'd rather trust someone like him.

"but lets remember that it's still his forum"

I beg to disagree with you, but just slightly. A forum that's made public is no longer "his forum" per se.
It's just like Dokpesi going on air on AIT to say 'this is my station, my own opinion only or y'all can tune off"

I appreciate his good work with this website, but that is the beauty of owning a public information platform of this nature. Once it's out there, you it becomes the people's property putting even a greater responsibility on your sholders on how you utilize your personal opinions.

The reason for this is simple. Only a few people out of 1000's will appreciate your comments as coming from "the boss".

With that said, can the "the boss" get in touch with me for some private discussions?

You could say that probably because you've not seen beyond your nose.

Research CNN, FOX, SKY, ABC. They use a lot of interns and volunteers.

And hundreds of really big internet radio stations outside of "Ogun State" use volunteers.

In other parts of the world, internet and community radio offer platform for people looking to launch themselves into broadcasting and they usually joined as unrenumerated volunteers or interns.

Read about the big internet stations on MSN music, SHOUTcast, Live365, etc your eyes might just gain some milleage.

Educate yourself before you open your mouth next time.

Celebrities / Re: Beyonce Could Be Lying About Her Age by tundeyoung: 11:40am On Jan 10, 2007
It may be a way of life in Nigeria to lie about our ages,  but it's not possible in America. 
Once a child is born in the US, the hospital records the date and time in the birth registry which is then linked with the child's social security record. Everything she does thereon is attached to her date of birth and social security number. That includes, immunization record, school registration and even driver's license and yearly tax returns. And most of these records are open to the public, especially in Harris County, Houston TX where Beyonce was born.
The only way it may be possible for Beyonce to lie about her age is if her parents lied in her birth record, and that in itself is almost impossible.
Even if she disclosed a different age for the fun it, the US media would have ruined her career.

Travel / Re: I Want To Live In Nigeria by tundeyoung: 2:17pm On Nov 16, 2006
It's incredible to read here how lowly you guys feel about your country.

As someone who spent the first 3 decades if his life in different parts of Nigeria and who has been living abroad for quite sometime, I can tell you that Nigeria's picture has been slightly exaggerated here.
Truly, you will need a malaria shot just like a Nigerian visiting the UK or the US for the first time would need a flu shot. That's not to say that you will die of malaria in Nigeria. And again, justlike the flu shot is just a precaution a malaria shot will protect you while in Nigeria, just in case.

You will find modern settlements in Lagos, Abuja and Port Harcourt that offers the same quality of live you're already used to in the UK. But because of sharp cultural differences, I will advice that a short visit may be good idea, at first. This will also enable you to form your own opinion about Nigeria and its people.

I do not expect you to get positive advice from the Home Office in London, so I will suggest getting some advice from the British High Commision in Lagos. Because they are on the ground, they should be able to advice you objectively and correctly about visiting Nigeria.
You should be able to get a tourist visa from the Nigerian High Commision in London without any formal invitation if you pre-book your hotel and other things.

I have had people return after a visit to Nigeria from the US with positive experiences. One great quality of an average Nigerian is his warmness and hospitality, particularly toward strangers. You will find the people very friendly.

Cost of living is very low with verify minimal tax burden, in case you finally decide to migrate.
And just like in every country, you should be stingy with your trust when you get to Nigeria. The country has it's own fair share of bad eggs.

Let us know how you like Nigeria.

Yeah, I wish I could go but I can't make the journey. I'm too far away.
The Lord has blessed me severally through Tabborrah and I recommend it to every, despite the mis-information about white garment churches.
