Nche95: I'm highly intro-verted. I can't even say 'hi' to a girl.. I think i'm destined not to get married.

we kind of have same problem.

@ op thanks. You have just save the soul of a ugly looking man like myself who cant talk to a woman

Who says an average nigerian lives on $1 a day must be serious disturbed mentally. Course even the beggars on the street get to eat 3 sq meal per day is that not more than $1.

Rimbaldi: It is usually best to relocate home alone at first till u get to know how things work here. Ur family can join u if u still want after 6 months to a year.This gives u time to acclimatize with the practices here and provide a soft landing for ur family. U have been away for long and u need a little time to learn about present day Nigeria. Is ur wife white or black? Sometimes the way the western media paints the picture, it makes it look like there's pandemonium here by the second. If south Africans and other nationals are queuing up at our embassies in droves despite the security challenges just to come make a living here, how much more u a son of the soil?

@ bolded i love that part

I have watch more than 20 of there films but jumong still remain the best of them all

Rossikk: This is the problem with the media, exaggeration, and anti-Nigerian propaganda. Look at how this man's mind has been poisoned against Nigeria to the point where he cannot even see his country as it is, as opposed to the way enemies of progress want him to see it.

Please poster, if you want to return home, please feel free to do so. Infrastructure is getting better by the day, and is most certainly BETTER than when you left Nigeria 13 years ago. Most of the major federal highways are fixed or undergoing major renovation. 15 airports have been (and are being) completely remodelled. Major cities like Lagos, Port Harcourt, Enugu, Calabar etc are witnessing major infrastructural transformation. The railways are seeing unprecedented investment as is the power sector. In fact power generation has doubled in the last two years and many homes and businesses have seen greatly improved supply, with more plants coming on stream. The power sector is being privatized, so is certain to transform the sector as the telecoms privatization did to that sector.

Security wise, you are SAFER in Nigeria than in South Africa.

I repeat for sake of emphasis:

Security wise, you are SAFER in Nigeria than in South Africa.

In fact you are at least 3 times safer in Nigeria if you compare the crime rate in the two countries. Armed robberies have virtually ceased to exist in Nigeria compared to the spate of their occurrence 13 years ago when you lived here.

Kidnapping occurs, but is EXTREMELY RARE and you are statistically, most unlikely to be a victim. Even if you were, 9.9 times out of ten you will not come to any physical harm. Whoever told you that 10 people were kidnapped in Lekki in the last week or whatever is LYING to you. The usual exaggeration for which many miserable people here are well known for. There are millions and millions of well-to-do Nigerians, including ex-diasporans, who go about their business daily with no problems. There is no reason you and your family would not join them and go about your business daily, with no problems.

Economy wise, there could not be a better time to return to Nigeria. With GDP growing at 7% per annum, Nigeria is the place to be in Africa today. The Chinese are rushing in. As are the Indians, Lebanese, Europeans, Americans, and South Africans themselves. Hundreds of South African companies are establishing outlets here and their number keeps growing, as this country posts the highest returns on investment of any country in the developing world. The Nigerian middle class is growing, and poverty is reducing. The World Bank recently reported that poverty in Nigeria is on the decrease, as better governance leads to more opportunities for people to make progress.

So welcome home.

thank you for ur post still dont know why the media like to paint us bad

playmode: Thank you for your honest input,it is very much appreciated.

you are welcome. And you should know sometimes what u read online is not actually what is happening in the country nigeria is not as bad as people take it to be.

Home is home. You matter the challenges we face here in nigeria. It only you and i that can make our country better. No matter where u are you might one day find ur self in the country. So my advice you can come yourself to put things together first and survey the environment.before bringing ur family down here. Just my2cent

Good can somebody put these up in the front page

I just wish these death sentence could be implemented by GEJ. Government then all the excess coruption will stop

on my way to the market going to get season 1

Akpos' First day in a new
Secondary School.
Teacher: There will be an
elementary science test next
week. Contrary
to his
nature, Akpos reads his book
from cover to
cover
like no man's business. On test
day, teacher
lines up
about 5 birds, covering each with
a piece of
cloth so only their legs are visible.
Question 1:
Looking at
the leg of a bird write down its'
common
name,
species, family, zoological name,
habitat etc.
After
about 20mins of frustration and
not writing
down
anything, Akpos storms to the
teacher's desk
and
slams his blank sheet in front of
the teacher.
'Sir, this test makes no sense! I am
going
home!' Teacher:
What a rude boy! Come back here.
What is
your name? Akpos raises his
trouser and
points to
his leg: 'Oya u too, look my leg na,
tell me my
name,
my surname, where I dey live,
which tribe I
come
from. "

A lady with 4 BFs may have a spread like this
Boy A: 40%
Boy B: 20%
Boy C: 15%
Boy D: 10%

The remaining 15% will be reserved for unforseen circumstances like RUNS, etc.

ABAKALIKI — A middle aged
man, Chukwu Onyekachi,
from Okofia Village, in Ezza
South Local Government Area
of Ebonyi State was arrested,
weekend, by men of Nigeria
Security and Civil Defence
Corps, NSCDC, for allegedly
vandalising Power Holding
Company of Nigeria, PHCN,
installation in the state.
The suspect, 28, who
confessed to have engaged
in similar venture in
Anambra State before
coming to his village,
revealed that his operation at
Ezza East Development Centre
will make it the 17th time he
had engaged in the
vandalisation of PHCN cables.
Addressing newsmen at the
Command headquarters in
Abakaliki, the Corps Public
Relations Officer, Assistant
Superintendent of Corps, ASC
Emmanuel Nwali, noted that
the suspect sustained
injuries on his belly, hands
and face due to the electrical
shock he received while
attempting to steal a bolt
from the high tension
transmission cable behind
Ezza East Development
Centre.

He said: “At about 7: 30 p.m.
last night, we got a signal
from one of our divisions,
precisely in Ezza East
Development centre of Ezza
South LGA that a young man
was caught vandalising PHCN
transmission cable.
“In fact, it was a surprise
that a man of that age who
knows what life is all about
could risk his life by climbing
transmission cable at that
time.
“It was as a result of him
trying to remove a size 18
bolt from the transmission
cable that made him sustain
all those burns; our men
tried to save his life by calling
PHCN which eventually
switched off power supply
from the station.
“From the victims
confessional statement, we
gathered that he has been in
the business for a long time,
making this last mission his
17th time. The law has
caught up with him and he
will face all the charges
against him in court.
“This is our core mandate;
24 hours we are alert to
make sure that government’s
infrastructure including PHCN
are well secure.

The Federal Government has
reiterated its commitment to
providing one million houses
for Nigerians across the
country on a yearly basis.
Minister of Land, Housing
and Urban Development, Ms
Ama Pepple, reaffirmed the
government’s plan recently,
Yola, Adamawa State, at the
launching of 400 housing
units built by the state
government through a N1.3
billion facility obtained from
the Federal Mortgage Bank of
Nigeria (FMBN), with an
additional N2 billion set to be
released for other housing
projects in the state.
The minister, who was
represented by Permanent
Secretary in the Housing
Ministry, Alh. Ibrahim Mahe,
commended the Adamawa
State government for
embarking on the project,
which she noted was in line
with the National Housing
Policy. “This is in line with
the goal of National Housing
Policy to aggressively tackle
the huge national housing
deficit by delivering one
million housing units per
annum,” she declared.
Pepple expatiated on how
government intends to
achieve the goal of delivering
the one million housing units
every year. According to her,
the houses would be
delivered through various
approaches, such as
partnership between public
and private sectors as well as
collaboration among
agencies of government at
various levels.

She added that state
governments have been
recognised as significant
partners in housing delivery
and as such urged them to
help facilitate the realisation
of the vision by expediting
action on the provision of
land and necessary
infrastructure for developers.

Managing Director, FMBN, Mr
Gimba Ya’u Kumo, in his
remarks at the occasion, said
apart from the 400 housing
units, the bank was also
financing two other housing
projects, comprising 95 units
and 240 units, in the state
capital. He noted that
Adamawa State is an active
contributor to the National
Housing Fund (NHF), and
gave an assurance that FMBN
is set to provide an
additional N2 billion loan to
the state government for
construction of more houses.
Also speaking at the event,
Chairman of Adasolid
Properties Limited, the
developers, Mallam Lawal
Abubakar, said the project
comprised of 120 three-
bedroom bungalows, 244
two-bedroom bungalows
and 12 semi-detached one
bedrooms.

In his speech while
inaugurating the estate,
Governor Murtala Nyako,
renewed his administration’s
commitment to execute
people-oriented projects and
called for support and
cooperation from the people
to achieve his transformation
agenda.
