TravelRe: From Japa To Japada: Greening The Nigerian Pasture by WeirdAlien:
International exposure is an asset for every government in the world, not just Nigeria.
That writer obviously lacks managerial skills, and should be living in a cave.

Someone who grew up in Nigeria and spent some good time in a developed country will have a better holistic view of the country's problems.

Lol grin. And the brand new cars were so affordable. Many kids were so proud of their parents owning a bicycle then.
You're talking about pre-independence era.
Who uses Zxcvbnmghtr as moniker by the way? No point quoting you.

At that time too people complained. My brother we go dey roll am dey go anyhow anyhow.
Your country was a lot better in those days. Don't let propagandists deceive you. Many Ghanaians and other Africans relocated to Nigeria for greener pastures those days.
The exact opposite is happening now.

Zxcvbnmghtr:
The fact is, when Naira was more valuable than the dollar in the 70s stroke 80s how many Nigerians could afford the basic necessities of life?

This was when a bag of cement was less than one Naira, yes less than #1. Yet how many people were able to build a house of their own.

How many owned a car?
Those where times nobody bought tokunbo cars except taxi drivers or people without higher education. Many owned brand new cars.

Again, why does someone who doesn't know history talk about what happened back in the 70s?

You're out of your knowledge sphere, Hombre.

Why is it that it is those who have never even seen or touched a dollar in their life that are always talking about dollar this dollar that?
You don't need to know what dollar bills look like before it affects your cost of living in Nigeria.
Why is it that those who don't understand basic economics are always jumping into threads like this?

Congratulations!
You made the right choice to Japa.

But it doesn't mean all people back home are suffering financially, despite the odds.

The difference is, it's a lot easier to live comfortably abroad, even if you don't hammer over there. But no one is comfortable in Nigeria no matter how rich you are, there are many unwarranted headaches to deal with.

They only wanted to distract you guys from the subsidy removal by dropping gas prices (temporarily).
The prices are rising already, just 3 months!

To even live in Lagos means you're mad.
You won't know you're mad until you visit other cities on normal business days (NOT weekend or holidays that your fellow Lagos madmen are also visiting).

You should be focused on "how to identify non-scam churches" because truth be told, most are.


The first step is knowing Jesus Christ Himself and the word of God. So that another man will not be scamming you.

It's sad many youths today don't even know their country was once a very good place. That's why they support wrong leaders.
They think it's all just about hustling and making money to have a good life and fail to call their leaders to responsible governance.

Plus this one plus "Nuru massage". They're all exotic approaches to ashawo work.
They would tell you they're professional masseuses, but you just need to top up the fees to get the happy ending sex.

KYC is something nairaland is missing.
People talk anyhow because they feel their identity is (almost) anonymous.

Truth. This forum has become so toxic that when someone quoted me with a response so polite, I had to check up their profile and realised it was a new account. But it's not the forum that's the problem. It's a reflection of who we really are as Nigerians - and that is why the country never progresses.
PoliticsRe: People Flaunt An International Degree, Tinubu Fights For His Not To Be Flaunted? by WeirdAlien: 7:10am On Aug 27, 2023

PoliticsRe: As Malagi & Ngelale Renounce Lai’s Lies & Adesina’s Insults By Farooq A. Kperogi by WeirdAlien: 2:49pm On Aug 26, 2023
The same set of people that defended those lies are now saying another thing. And gullible people will still believe them.

Men are so simple of mind, and so much dominated by their needs, that a deceitful man will always find plenty who are ready to be deceived.

If after what you saw in 8 years you still believe APC, it's either you're APC yourself, or they should just give up on you. SMH.

He is correct.
Since he's not talking about Fela or Lagbaja or Sunny Ade kind of Afrobeat.
He's referring to his contemporaries today, and he should have clarified that. His music too is not exempt from his comments anyway.

Throwback:
Will Peter Obi finally present his University certificate and NYSC certificate to INEC when he contests the 2027 election?

Why are Igbos always lamenting about Tinubu who boldly presented his CSU Bachelor's degree certificate and NYSC certificates to INEC?

So Peter Obi look Nigeria finish and decided his 2nd chance external candidate GCE is suitable?

Even worse than Buhari's Cambridge/WAEC student O'levels certificate.

Peter Obi no get levels, that is why Reno has been disgracing Obi's supporters with the truth about the desperate ticket hunter.
Why don't you guys ever have sense?
So anybody not supporting Tinubu is Igbo or obidient? O ma she o.

This could get you caught in the middle of serious felony case of armed robbery or kidnapping. That could change your life forever.
If you are absolutely sure you can reach the seller again, consider reporting to police. Else just destroy it and throw it away.
FamilyRe: (updated, they all died)Black Cockroach Is Killing Me. by WeirdAlien: 9:19am On Aug 24, 2023
1. Pour sniper undiluted at every corner of the apartment. Use multiple bottles generously. Close all doors and windows and leave the house for two days. Come back to clean up everything. You may need to repeat this every 3-4 weeks for the next 3-6 months, depending on how quickly problem gets resolved.

2. Always have green leaf, or Rambo powder at corners and dark places 24/7. Even when you stop seeing them.

They leave trails of scent that attract other cockroaches in the future. Use a strong smelling product like bleach to wipe out surfaces in corners and edges and dark areas. This will help remove those scent trails.

Wants Africa to Burn how? Oblivious Obidients can’t you read to comprehend, or frustration is not enabling you to reason properly?

He said: “The UK supports ECOWAS in calling for the peaceful restoration of constitutional order and democracy in Niger, and we’ll work with both ECOWAS and our partners across West Africa to support them in that aim.”

From the above statement, it is apparent to any simple thinker that they are not interested in Military intervention (Black Man Way), they are interested in using severe sanctions to deal with those bloody coup plotters, that had the audacity to suspend the constitution of a sovereign democratic Nation.
You're an infant shey?
