Some Ghanaians are behaving as if they are not Africans at all.

That's the thing

There is no such thing as 'African culture'
We are not homogeneous in that regard


There are many African societies that are liberal when it comes to sexual matters like this, and others like Nigeria, that are conservative when it comes to matters like this.

A trip to Ivory Coaft, or Cameroon will clear your doubt

erico2k2:
1 government support you when you are married ie your tax code changes
2 you get working tax credit
3 you get child tax credit
4 your maternity and paternity leave is paid
5 you get help with child care
6 therr is massive support for single parents ie the man must pay child support.government gives you house free or cheap

You want me to go on??

Okay

erico2k2:
In Nigeria it's for everyone . The reason behind this trend in the west is cos of govt backing . Just wait till the govt take away welfare cheque see if they dont change the orientation .
Also in Nigeria if a guy days to a woman **oh I only wanna date and not marry they (girl)run far.unless guy is rich .

It's not for every one anywhere, even in Nigeria

My mother had three aunties and an extended uncle who did not marry.

Besides, your talk about government backing is not exactly trye; because there are MANY single and successful men and women in the west, especially in the U.S. and to an extent, Australia

So how does welfare checks come in?

Pataricatering:
Why do men have a problem with women who don't feel marriage is the ultimate achievement ? The op seems threatened by women who do not need men ! lol . Marriage is great if you meet the right person but it's better to be single than marry the wrong person . From the op s use of the word ' slut ' for women you already know the type of man he is . Not worth much !

Some men are just insecure, that's all.

ifeanyija:
so u will allow ur daughters have children for men with marriage?

That's not your choice to make.

It's theirs

When they are collecting the prick and welcoming the sperm into their womb; you as a father will not be there, especially when she is in her mid 20s and does not live under your roof again

Suprnov3r:
@OP...

Marriage is not for everyone. If not for the need to procreate, a lot of our parents would not have married.

I know a lot of successful guys who just want a kid and no wife. So girls should be allowed to feel the same. This humongous marital burden our culture places on people is absurd. Marriage should be for those who believe in it and not for everyone


Funny those who pressure people to get married in order to promote the family system are the sane people destroying it with the increase in divorce rates today

Exactly

kinginvagina:
The new trend amongst single and frustrated girls is promoting the movement "marriage is not for everybody", if your mothers had same mindset years ago you won't be alive and be who you are today. do not out of frustration promote wrong movement to misinform and deceive the new generation. Men are not responsible for your inability to keep them The economy, high standard and taste and rising population of girls are the causes of less marriages in Nigeria.

If you decided not to marry, keep it to yourself aunty 35. Hundreds are getting married every Saturday, wait for your time, be humble and respectful even if you are a former slut , there is redemption. change location so you can meet new men that know nothing of your past. My piece

This is some silly ass shit

even in our grand mother's era, not every one got married

Even in bible times, not every one got married

So they are right, marriage is not for everyone, or let me rephrase it, not every one will get married.

It's nothing to beat yourself over for, just enjoy your life and die in peace

Akinaukwa:
"whose club has high profile Nigerians enjoying life every night even with sometimes underage girls." Ever had a better glance at this statement. They expose other peoples underaged girls probably within the age range of their daughter and wants to shield their daughter from child molesters. I don't support what such idiotic men are doing but what goes around comes around. You cant destroy other peoples children's lives and expect yours to be preserved.

The blogger who typed that is a big fool...

There is No way a girl under 18 *or at least liijs like an adult* will be let into Quilox.

And to be honest with you; that mentality captured in what you typed up there is Fycked up.


Nigerians sef

Zoharariel:
Atiku Abubakar - You're a filthy, greedy, self-centered homosexual beast, who - after being leveraged into a position of uncommon material superabundance - has been regarding the presidency as the only conquest remaining to be achieved - and you will never be President in Nigeria by the authority of the irunmoles.

You cannot pocket Nigeria through your political maneuvers,  intimidation,  killing,  organized blackmailing & throwing of your ill-gotten wealth to cajole impoverished Nigerians into doing your bidding with the assistance of your rented Media in collaboration with your sponsored organized civil societies - which in pretext of fighting for the masses,  are only doing their paid bidding.

Your corrupt practices, double-dealing, duplicity, treachery & betrayal in the course of your political sojourn have been well documented - and your marabouts that are pushing you should will eventually be your undoing.

Both the APC & PDP have failed Nigerians and must be discarded come 2019.

Let's see this thing from a positive angle tho

Let him spend a lot of money (this will help some people and families; albeit for a short term) , let the wealth spread a little

At the end of the day, he will still not smell Aso Rock

freshvine:
50% of all this billions will go for empowerment programmes... thieving by politicians without evidence.

20% of them will propose to buy keke napep... A yearly ritual yet Nigeria is not yet flooded with tricycle.

20% of representatives will elect to sink boreholes yet we still have water scarcity all year round.

5% will go for over bloated projects shared by the supervisory MDAs.

The other 5% will truly meet the yearning of the citizens.

At the end, 95% of the constituency budget are looted by the very politicians that introduce this scam into the budget.

They will not go unpunished

Patoskid:
I was listening to that his second album on my way to work this morning, comaparing it to what he dishes out now I can't help but to smh.... Sweet African buzz no be all this 'foreign ways' wey him dey run now

There is nothing wrong with Wizkid current flow tho....

It's paying off for him

cococandy:
You people are a disgrace to the human race because the brains given to you is a total waste of cells and resources.
A celebrity child can have an internet page for marketing purposes and as is obviously shown here, her mom manages it for her.

No words for the peadophile but all condemnation for the mom for doing absolutely nothing wrong.
You're ediots. Your kinds of people are the reason why rape is vibrant in nigeria. Fvcking retardds.

It's a big shame I tell you.

Who did this to the black man?

OldBeer:
Finally!
A sane person!
White and Asian kids as little as 10 are creating apps due to their early exposure to technology.
But for the black man...........
Tufia!

I'm ashamed of my people

No condemnation for the paedo guy.
Big shame

Godstraight:
and do you worship the god your fathers served?

good question

laliga01:
Am I the only one looking for dirty on the streets but I couldn't find. Even ordinary pure water nylon or plastic can.
What kind of waste management scheme do these guys adopt?

It's amazing how hard it is for we in many African cities to keep our cities clean.

Pigs

Turkish people are NOT Arab people
Arabs are not even up to 10% of the Turkish population

Just saying tho

roughdiamond:
I have my reservations on why I haven't contacted her. She works at Cocody and lives really big but women are last in my list here. I have seen and heard much about them here. I came with a plan and haven't even gotten an apartment. One needs to settle first. My first objective was for her to help me find accommodation but she pays 80k cefas where she lives which is against my budget. My mission is to stay here but things are damn expensive here. I mean very expensive

Only if 1000 cfa was 330 like in the past, you will not be saying this.
Because the Ghana currency is stronger than both Naira and cfa; they tend to like it there.

corkpikin:
[b]let say N1 million

That's 1million CFA

Accommodation in areas like Cocody,Riveria and Palmeria extention

100,000 cfa per month at Riveria Jardin studio apartment.
Landlord takes 3 months rent + 2 months Caution + Agent fee equals 600,000 Cfa . I had no choice. Trechville,Grandbassam, Macouri faya, is a no no for me Average house rent overthere is 50,000 to 60,000 cfa.
Youpogon hmmmn! it's a choice though house rent there is btw 35,000 to 50,000 cfa see! fine girls full here o most especially you can't speak French prepared to be loved by FEMME here unlike no woman for u in Nigeria if u can't speak good english.

Taxi from Cocody to Trechville 2,000 CFA woro woro cost 700cfa ... Normal Naija money remember CFA and Naira are almost the same

10 eggs cost 1,000 cfa
Can coke cost 500 cfa
Table water 500 cfa .... Though they have one of the best h20
SK something that make's boiz smile ask tinubu .. 1 wrap is 1000cfa and naija 100 Naira .... No wonder they traffic drug here but if thier police catch you ehn! 20 years bye bye ur pikin don grow smoke that shit in ur house .

Your 10,000 Naira in Nigeria is one paper here.

Now i want to do e spending

wake up in the morning and i brush up my teeth.

3G internet 10,000 cfa

10gig cost 30,000 cfa

If you have a job here you are good to go. [/b]

Ivory Coast is actually cheaper than Ghana...
Even the Ghanaians will tell you

What made it look like things were expensive was because back then, naira lost a lot of value, even till now, so if you are coming from Nigeria, you will pay double of what you have paid say 4 years ago.

Shame

This man is a big fool.
Who told him NO Hausa person owms property in the entire SE?
And NO Yoruba person owns a proorty in the east?
This guy is a dunce

These stupid IPOB touts again

Vikings55:
When his wife calls, he will turn to u and say quit or shhhhhuuuu my wife is calling, remember that is all u are shuuuu to him, u play dummy while they talk about the kids and important stuff, continue wasting your time

The side chicks know this


But they don't seem to care, besides they are side chicks to different men, both married and single.

pazienza:
I doubt if Akwaibom has smoother roads and more road connectivity than Anambra State.
You are a local man and had hardly left your little Akwa Ibom enclave, so I would pardon your ignorance.

We have a thread on Imo state , Enugu and Anambra on this board, you can go there and cure your ignorance, our governors are not the best, but yours are not the best either, it was Enugu and not Uyo that made the resilient city award list in Nigeria.

You are an ignorant being, SE is as populated as it can and indeed has one of the most dense population distribution in Nigeria.
The world belongs to the adventurous, even the Chinese are in Nigeria looking for opportunities to exploit, it doesn't in any way mean that their China homeland is desolate.
Ndiigbo are not just in the whole Nigeria exploiting any available there, we are also in North America, Europe, Africa and Asia, doing same.

There are many Akwaibom people in Aba aiming to exploit opportunities found there. They are not loitering, they are being bold and adventurous, being able to step out of their comfort zones.

Lol! You will feed no one, and you have never fed anyone.
The Eastern cities of Onitsha and Aba were amongst those chosen for cashless policy test, because of volume of cash business transactions amongst the natives.
The businesses in the SE are mostly indigenous, so the government try as much as possible to limit the tax, to encourage growth, and this translates to reduced IGR.

Akwa Ibom on the other hand has lots of multinational oil companies, and it's easier to tax such companies for the state government.
The volume of business transaction amongst Akwaibom indigenes are no match for those of neighbouring Abia state. The money in Akwa Ibom is not well circulated amongst the indigenous population, it's all in the hands of the government.

Akwa Ibom is enjoying her crude oil wealth, that is granted, but it has not translated to better standard of living for the common Akwaibomites on the streets.
Until you do this, you have not earned to right to speak ill of SE.

WORDSENSEI:
How exactly are your people being marginalised?
The appointments you all are crying over won't benefit an average Igbo man!
During GEJ's regime, Igbos dominated all the key posts, why the tears?
Forget federal character, you only work with people you are sure of delivering a good job!

I don't care much about appointments tho...

I care more about federal projects

ERockson:
Seun should call the tribal mod on this forum to order. O ti gbabode. Why hidden my posts that only portrayed SW as being conducive environment for investment?

So you want to potray ONLY the SW as a conducive place for investment?

It's not a crime tho

And its hide, not hidden

Alcatraz005:
The Nigerian Government won't devote billions of dollars to build igbo land. You can hit your head on the wall of you like, it won't change nada! You think you can get stuff from the rest of Nigeria with this belligerence and bellicosity? We shall see.

You see your evil mindset?

A part of the country should continue to be marginalised eh

banmee:
And you got likes for this rubbish you posted. It really shows the level of exposure and education in Nigeria. Is she a public official? Is it her responsibility to fix roads? You guys do not know responsibilities so how can you be trusted to know your government's?

That guy you quoted is sick in the head, or you don't know?

Every opportunity to disparate Igbo people is where you will see his likes
How do private citizens build roads

And the dimwit does not even know that hausa, Yoruba and other tribes live im their large numbers in the South East.

But because he lacks exposure, and has not travelled, he will be talkibg from his anus

Alcatraz005:
This is what baffles millions of Nigerians. They don't want to develop that place but want to remain in other Nigerian cities to be tormenting the indigenous population with cries of marginalization. Their matter na siddon look ooo as they can't be challenged verbally as they can insult for Africa.

Common sense you do not have

When did it become the responsibility of private citizens to build the road?

Use your brain na

roughdiamond:
Their girls too like Nigerian guys. I have not really observed much about their mentality towards Nigerians but from my little experience, they are very nice and friendly. I met a very charming Ivorian girl at The Young Shall grow park. Didn't know how to approach her ( because of how our girls in Nigeria treat guys) but fortunately, her seat was beside mine. She greeted immediately she entered and our conversation started till we got to Abidjan. Though language barrier was a great problem but Google translator helped. I collected her number but yet to call her.
I haven't known how to make money here as I am still trying to settle and break the language barrier but there are great businesses almost everywhere.
House rent is very costly from my little experience. I was told 50k cefa at Marcory and required to pay for 4months. A local hotel I slept in charged 12k cefas.

Youpougon would not be a bad idea if you are on a budget.
