Get use to good practice and stay away from lawlessness, Qeue is a practice but nigerians are use to pushing and sogorin, whenever I go to First bank in Nigeria, people rush like flies over poo poo as well as the Bank staff doing their own thing without full concentration, no manners.

Good info, well noted.

200 million MUMU.....Prayer indeed.

Very nice and high profile but what about the maintenance?

We'll be keeping eye on things, keep up the good work.

So how come India has prospered more than Naija when Nigerians are more hard working?

Good work ethics and ambitious for DEVELOPMENT while our leaders are busy looting public fund.

One more thing you forgot to mentioned is HEALTH CARE.....now, Nigerians are flying to India for medical treatment because we can't diagnose NOTHING, Madela never stepped out of South Africa for treatment but Nigerian politicians and their family flies out for dislocation of wrist.

Very serious matter, Jonathan dey Yab, Oduah dey mess and there's no CAR PARK at MM AIRPORT.....This are the reason why.

Mr Aboki: [b]Indians and Chinese people all think and believe that they are superior to Africans, in the same way the WHite supremacists see africans as Niggas.\

However, my first job as a graduate in Canada was given to me by an Indian man. He even paid me the standard wage (20 dollars an hour) and said he will pay me cash so that I dont have to pay any government taxes on the money as he knows that I really needed it to settle.

He was indeed a great boss. Made me supervisor over even Indians (prolly cos he saw that I had a degree). At some point, I was like his second in command. However, those other indians that worked for the company and the indians that were our clients were retards.

The last day I worked for him was because of how an Indian client was very condecending to me. My boss saw it and immediately intervened as he saw that I was about to lose it.


But here in Africa, the matter is different. Go to all the businesses owned by;

Indians
Chinese &
Lebanese

and see how they treat and talk to their staff for minimum wage with no benefits.. [/b]

That's for Criminal in charge of Nigeria to sort that mess out but they are busy collecting kick backs from foreign investors as well as Nigerian Employers.

Sickening.

Umm....Nothing surprises me about Nigeria as far as im concerned.

Thief steal am another Thief carry am.

Ebami kigbe Ole, Ole Ajibole.....without a doubt Pasuma knows WHAT TIME IS IT.

Tell me how can Nigeria be better?

This is a difficult thread to contribute as both country have a bad reputation.

Indians have 419 us in the past due to our incompetent CRIMINAL LEADERS, very crafty people

Now the game have changed as Nigerians are trading serious Drug business, very Loud and arrogant, showing off their stolen treasures.

Nigerians are not different from india but indians are improving in many areas while Nigerians are busy looting.

Very Dodgy countries.

Dan banza shege.

Really nice.

ROSSIKE:

Dumb slave.. I bet you stink of tandoori/garlic.

Totally agree with you for the first time, they are slave driver, the bitter truth is that they DO NOT LIKE BLACK PEOPLE to an extent of discriminating among their country men that are darker in complexion.

Truly they stink constantly. .....loooooooooool

I couldn't stop laughing reading your comment.

But to be honest our work ethic are bad.

Absolutely brilliant.

dozzybaba: @Venchy, sorry to say you have an insect's brain.

The heediot you quoted "goaparty' registered the same day he commented on this thread, as a lazy researcher, you didn't even try to validate his claim of being an indian. You just swallowed his s.h.it "hook, line and sinker", because the word "Ibo" is being represented in bad light, something many of your ilks enjoy like red o..

The guy "gaoparty" smells like stinking black Nigerian ....highly probably from the SW.

I have a lot to say....i always have, but i'll restrain myself.

But let me warn you, if anyone is trying to cause an anti-Igbo tribal war on this thread. I am more than capable of taking up the gauntlet. Check my post history, check the dates too.

It's been a long time i engaged in tribal bashings, i've been banned severally, but people like you and goaparty won't let me stop. Again check my post history..i'm a veteran in e-fights.

Be warned.


N.B @ Afam and Sexkillz et al. hope you all see why i may never change.

Hey hey big up and think straight, I'm not on here to have an argument but to contribute as well as sharing my awareness about things that are unacceptable and not been biased.

If you read my comment very well you'll realise that firm but fare to both sides.

I'm a Nigerian that doesn't live in DENIAL compare to some people like you that knows what's going on but turn a blind eye.

I can slag off anyone as long as long as they are doing wrong.

Seriously there's no smoke without a fire, means our people have committed a crime and local people are not happy about it but I don't support killing of one another.

Now ask yourself what can any NIGERIANS possibly be doing in INDIA for God sake other than Drugs, just like in South Africa...this is not Europe or US, it's another Slump for goodness sake.

I am not surprised you have been banned many times with such behaviour.

You are clearly benefiting from such money that's why you can't see anything wrong.

Lots of Igbos are my friends, very decent ones, they completely condemned all this act which I expect to come out to say but rant like a secondary school child.

More grease to your elbow and it won't be long before you get banned again.

I'm out..

Having slag off igbos guys, indians are terribly bad as well, they are slave drivers and very DODGY as we say in UK.

Can I remind you that this is a forum premidominantly and strictly NIGERIANS that's why it's called NAIRALAND.....check out the brand name.

Very very conservative and selfish and unfriendly people.

I'm not a racist for your information but if the world belongs to indians the rest will be jobless.

All companies runs by Indian's are predominantly full off Indian's employees and no other race but thank God UK is a white man's country and there's chance for everyone.

I totally dislike INDIAN'S style but I blame nigerians going all the way to hustle in India.

May God help our people.

goaparty: [size=14pt]I am Indian and I have come here to explain to Nigerians about whats going on in India in respect to the millions of Nigerians who now call India their home. There are alot of rubbish comments by some crazy Nigerians here.




I am a student in a large university in India. And over the years, I have made friends with alot of NIgerians who have come to my country to study in a college in my home city. My Nigerain friends are mostly HAUSAS, YORUBAS or FULANI people and they are good god fearing people. They study alot and dont indulge in criminal activities. But according to them there is a tribe in Nigeria called the IBO tribe which is made up of drug dealers, prostitutes, kidnappers and criminals. The main job of this ibo tribe is to go to other countries and carry on their criminal activities. This IBO tribe is mainly responsible for spoiling the name of Nigerians in India and the main reason why Indians are wary of Nigerians today. According to my Nigerian friends this IBO TRIBE is also known for their criminal activities within Nigeria



So coming back the topic,



These guys who died in Goa died in a gang war. thats what happened here.



Come to Goa and see for yourself. all Nigerians here are IBOS and they are all drug dealers. If you want weed, cocaine, ecstasy, opium - just go and find the nearest Nigerian guy. They even pay the police so they dont catch them.



and what happened was a a fight between two rival drug gangs and thats how your so called brother died.



Its not racist, its just the truth. Ask your own Nigerian people and they will tell you.




If you still dont believe me, come to GOA and see for yourself. ALL NIGERIANS HERE ARE DRUG DEALERS. THEN THEY GET INTO GANG WARS AND START ASKING FOR JUSTICE FROM POLICE.[/size]

You are 1000% dam right, same in south Africa, always desperate for money by crooked ways now crying for help.

Abeg joo carry your croos oh because when you are splashing your blood money you never tell us how you arrived.

[size=15pt]"Music Against Second Slavery".....Fela sang long time but NIGERIAN leaders can't understand but busy with their LOOTING mindset.

Desperate migration for survival leads to many untimely death of Nigerians.

I haven't been to India before but I work and sometimes go to their communities in London and they SMELL TERRIBLY.

From Nigeria Ghetto to the worst slump.

Nigerians are suffering in silence.

I WILL RATHER BE GRINDING PEPER OR RIDING OKADA THAN WASTING MY LIFE IN ANOTHER GHETTO[/size]

Sike: The Jollof rice or the Plantain?

I repeat, our foods are really tasty but too much cabs and excessive oil are killer.

Everything in moderation

As for me I love to cook Vegetables soup with nice Amala because it's light weight and it digest quickly with fresh fish not fried.

Yemlizzy: Hmmm i love cooking Jollof rice and plantain!

Typical, can I ask what size you are?

Very tasty but contains HIGH CALORIES, watch out girl, heart disease are becoming pandemic in nigeria and Africa and there's no Medical facilities ooohh.

No smoke without a fire, one of the most deadly place on the planet.

South American generally are notorious for drugs and they do not thinks twice when they are taken action.

Be warned oohhh if you have any family dealing in DRUGS.

viski: You all love to shout TRADITION, TRADITION and TRADITION, God help you, well, satan goes tro and fro seeking whom to devour, he's competing with God, the Bible gives a very clear understanding of how things began, satan came down to earth with his dark angels(demons) when he was defeated, he succeeded in pushing us against our CREATOR (so we die), God has a special love for us 'cos we are just like his prototype in form(this is to satan shame). A blood must be shed for the remission of sin, a pure, sinless, spotless lamb. Because, without the sheding of blood, there is no forgiveness of sin, even the traditionalist know that, in old times, blood of rams are shed(this is just temporary, it only demonstrates the next order of thing which is yet to come). JESUS CHRIST came to die once and for all, he arose from the dead to show how we'll also arise someday leaving the devil defeated, since then, SALVATION is now refined. The devil never rest and he'll never rest, but Christ has prayed for us before his departure, his Holy Spirit will lead us, comfort us and guide us through the way. Remember, so far as satan can tempt Jesus, no one is exempted, do not be wise in your own eyes, remember the downfall of Solomon, lean on the Holy Spirit, and guard your heart for it is the wellspring of life. In fact, not to forget, Jesus even told me to love my enemies. Ah! What greater love do we even need from God. Things will begin to turn around, you'll feel inner peace, you won't be concerned any more about any pastor or imam that is falling away, but you'll know that at the end, it comes down to YOU and God. And for the traditionalist in the house, God loves you, Jesus love you, I love you. LET US ALL STAND UP TO STOP SATAN AND HIS WORKING DEMONS ON THE TRACK!

Too Ritheous for this forum.

Let me tell you who the REAL SATAN'S are ....

1) Pastors and Reverend using congregations fund to buy private Jet and living a flamboyant life style but also pray for the crook politicians.

2) The Crooks Running Nigeria (Politicians)

3) Yourself the followers of the Business churches that never preach any gospel or make serious noise against the crime against humanity in nigeria.

IFA will tell you how it is and advise you what to do and not babble around.

This people will first of all in the morning call on God almighty for guidance before they start their day.

Coconuts.

Interesting, Brazillians practice this religion more than Nigeria where it originated from.

Sometimes I believe we are too FAKE, not real and lots of pretends.

The genuine ones are truely hard to fine but they shed light on things and gives you head start.

Ifa olokun Asoro dayo.

odun4love:

are u bad?

Typical Nigerian, answering a question with question?

chairman: Just wondering why nobody doesn't want to start insulting jonathan and his family because of this threadJust wondering why nobody doesn't want to start insulting jonathan and his family because of this threadJust wondering why nobody doesn't want to start insulting jonathan and his family because of this thread

Who's to be blame, my grandfather that never fight for post or Politicians who by force elect themselves without proper election?

Please wake up, politicians are responsible for anything thats goes wrong because they have OBLIGATION over their citizens and if things are not right then there will be Criticism over their ability.

But as for Nigerians, they can't stand critism but wants people to shut up and pull up with their inability towards running a nation.

speeder: Announcing the faults of others does not make you perfect||You can not see good in those who you don't love.| |Words from the pen of a collosus

Is there anything good in nigeria?

victorazy: Who cares? We keep domitating the world with our population.

[size=15pt]Are you NORMAL, definitely not at all, the bad breeze blowing round NIGERIA has affected your Oblangatamedula.....fools

You do not understand that 13% is a staggering number in just one country among the rest of the world.

Come to forum and EDUCATE yourself, not acting sick.


Jonathan family, formal Lecturer that doesn't understand the IMPORTANCE of education, causing unnecessary strikes.[/size]

Piece off, Rip off Pastor, preach gospel that's all the 150 million MUMU wants to hear and make more money to take along to heaven.

FOOLSSSSS.

Wake up Nigeriannnnnnnssssss and stop Listening to people that are Business Men and not real Men of God.

ORDINARY PAYS into their church but couldn't benefit from it, this people are skimmers.

jp philips:

That is what happens to countries who are always cap in hand for one financial aid or the other.
when they dash you money Aka foreign aid, they see you as a hungry soul who wont return to his country if given the opportunity to leave, hence the visa segregation.
watch closely the bottom 10 countries.

Ummm, do Nigeria as a country with abundance resources should be given aids?.....Hell NO.

Are Nigerians truely an hungry souls? Yes of course we are ...reasons.

1* We are very greedy in nature.
2* Our work ethic us completely CRAP.
3* We lack direction and engage in unrealistic things, e.g Our priorities are always wrong.
4* We always wants to eat what didn't work for.
5* We have CRIMINALS AS POLITICIANS.
6* Finally nothing is REAL about Majority of Nigerians life style as they love to live above their means.

Please get any European Passport if you can because you'll be treated better than back home.

I don't even know why it's called home when you are more like a foreigner, must know OGA AT THE TOP before you can get a job, we are in a mess.

nwa231jade: yes labour and supervision. i got quotation for dpc at 430k, lintel 500k and decking 500k this is with labour inclusive by contractor. i got 60tons of chipping at 560,000

First of all I'm not a builder but with this horrendous Quotation it seems like you are building a skyscraper.

Please find someone else, this quotation is Rip off, Terrible.

Kai, shege Jaguar.

eaglechild:
NA LIE when was that?
Currently if you travel with with your Nigerian passport, you don't get to queue up.
Please stop giving wrong info

You are living in denial by your comments.

Nigerians definitely get harassed by the criminal working at the airport while Top countries get preferential treament because they can't stand their diplomatic trouble or been sacked.

unmask: make we stay dey do wetin?

A very good question.

With Nigerian passport you'll always get lots of delays and serious ALERT at some airport abroad while in Nigeria with green Passport you'll die rotten when you fall seriously hill while the same greedy leaders are getting top treatment your money.

British P free medicals.

Don't be an hero for criminal looting your wealth because of Green P but take advantage of any good European or American P if it comes your way because your life is serious danger and your GREEN P is worthless.

Not even free movement within common wealth nations.

It's Simple question that has a straight forward answer.

Nigerians die young for few reasons:

1) BAD GOVERMENT 2* NIGERIAN PEOPLE ARE THE AUTO OF THEIR OWN MISSFURTUNE

gbanikiti: What part of Lagos-Badagry expressway please? I hope the closure is not going to extend from Maza Maza to Iyana Iba because that side of the road is still under road construction.

A very good question, I wonder why this job can't be done over the night but they must make life difficult for Ordinary people trying to make earns meet

Without a doubt I am enjoying my marriage because I didn't marry a Nigerian.

No family financial burden from my in law, No Aso Ebi and finally she doesn't compare me with a rich guy having flashy things, many reasons that I can't remember but I must confess that we are both lucky.

It takes a lot of tolerance and patience and more so we work hard and contribute equally and DO THINGS TOGETHER.

But marriage it's no EASY.
