Akaegwu: KNOW THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN UK, GREAT BRITAIN, BRITAIN, ENGLAND
A lot of people in Nigeria and indeed all over the world, including well travelled, elite class people often confuse England, United Kingdom, Britain and Great Britain. Well, here's the way to differentiate them:
*England* is a country just as Nigeria, and its capital is *London* just like Abuja is the capital of Nigeria.
*Great Britain* is a collection of 3 countries which came together as one country and has its capital as *London.* Those 3 countries are: 1. *England,* 2. *Scotland* and 3. *Wales.*
When you include *Northern Ireland* to these 3 countries, they become *United Kingdom* (union of four nations) Viz: 1. England, 2. Scotland, 3. Wales, and 4. Northern Ireland.
That is why it is referred to as the *United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.* Collectively, the four are taken as one country. And when this is the case, *London* is its capital.
Note however that these four individual nations all have their own respective capitals.
Accordingly, the capital of Scotland is *Edinburgh*, Wales is *Cardiff*; Northern Ireland is *Belfast*; England is *London*.
Ps: Northern Ireland is not to be mistaken for the *Republic of Ireland*. The latter is a separate country. Its capital is *Dublin*.

Nicely put... for years now, I've seen a lot of folks make these errors of identification.
🇷🇺 Vladimir Putin's terrifying Sarmat strategic missile system - also known as the Satan II - is ready for "combat duty", according to the head of Moscow's space agency.
Russia has issued a chilling nuclear warning to the West as Vladimir Putin put his Satan II nuclear missiles on “combat duty”, according to Moscow’s space agency.
The Sarmat, or Satan II, missile is a behemoth nuclear weapon capable of carrying up to 15 warheads across the globe and wiping out the United States. The weapon can also carry up to 24 Russian Avangard hypersonic glide vehicles, each capable of carrying a nuclear warhead 27 times the speed of sound.
The super heavy intercontinental ballistic missiles can reportedly reach the UK - 1,600 miles from where they are stationed - in just six minutes.
sukkot: Now first of all let me establish one fact , I do not care about your life choices, I personally find these japa topics and the back and forth comments on it to be very amusing. So when I open topics like this it is strictly to catch cruise. Nobody is discouraging you to japa so please save that mad talk. With that being established let’s proceed with the story
Dr Peter is a very rich man in Nigeria who had a medical practice and a big house and three cars. He was doing very well. But the japa allure came knocking at his door. So he sold everything he owned and moved to Canada. This is his story. It is full of regrets. He said he has discovered the whole thing was a mirage and that in Canada they work you like a machine and you never get to enjoy your job and they take all the money back in taxes and that you can never save. His advice to Nigerians is that if you are very stable in Nigeria do not attempt the mistake he made. In going through the comments of the video are people like him with similar regret stories of selling it all and going to Canada. One commenter says he looks back at selling all his property to japa as a form of madness.
Anyway enjoy the video and let us know what you think about Dr Peter or what he had to say

iwaeda: What are the direct implications of coup in Africa to the of Africa? It seems coup is now the new form of government in West Africa and this morning another Central Africa country, Gabon, joined the fray.
A vast number of Africans don't learn from the past! The outcomes of theses coups are very PREDICTABLE. This is a repetition of the military government disasters that hit Africa and Latin America from the late 1950s.
There is a crop of youngsters here on NL and other platforms who have never experienced military rule. They WILL ALL LEARN the hard way because basic freedom and the social media they are using to post misleading information will be taken from them by the military dudes whenever they take over any country's govenance! Period.
#Gabonese President Ali Bongo Ondimba is under house arrest and one of his sons has been arrested for “treason,” military officers say, hours after announcing they have overthrown the government.https://t.co/gy3iBZyrOapic.twitter.com/ZC6kaRdHET
This Gabon coup is grossly irresponsible! African and South America have NEVER faired well under military rule since the late 1950s. Corruption spikes up and the economies crumble the more under military rule! Demoracy is still the best way to go.
Citizens have absolutely NO freedom under military rule and people get assasinated at random without any consequences.
Even those youngsters posting criminally defamatory comments online and offline [like here on NL and other platforms elsewhere] would have been arrested by now and LIQUIDATED by the military goons from the face of the earth.
Bloomberg and many Western-based publications are NOT always right BECAUSE of skewed facts and confirmation bias. This is where fact-checking comes in.
You generally have to get a good class of degree from a good university to get into top tier companies - both in the USA and Nigeria.
The poster I quoted stated that Tinubu certainly must have graduated from CSU to be able to work for top tier companies. I am disputing that statement because it doesn't make sense. Have any top tier companies expressly stated that CSU graduates are the people they are looking for? Has any top tier company expressly stated that CSU grads are automatically guaranteed employment?
First off, reading this your post now, you have had me quoted wrongly! I NEVER said "he MUST have graduated from CSU" like you incorrectly stated.
I was CLEARLY very CERTAIN in my original post that you quoted that Bola Ahmed Adekunle Tinubu went know to Chicago State University. I know full well he went to CSU and I stand by my earlier post. Period.
I've been a veteran member here on NL with my older account since 2005, so I'm older in age, and I know full well when the Tinubu court cases took place in 1993. He was set free by the Federal Authorities in the U.S. [and over $1million was returned back to Tinubu's bank accounts by the authorities in the U.S. He only forfeited $400,000].
I do NOT want to delve into this issue again because IMHO, Tinubu himself is guilty of NOT being pro-active in debunking fully many of these allegations from over 10 years ago and sue those DEFAMING him. His son 'Seyi Tinubu too is a UK-trained lawyer, [but he and his father have been annoyingly very slow in sueing any one except Raymond Dokpesi's DAAR Communication that was sued in 2015 for over a N1billion and the court asked DAAR to apologise to Tinubu on prime-time TV as part of an out of court settlement brokered by Mike Ozekhome, SAN].
Attached BELOW is more pictorial award evidence indicating that President 'Bola Tinubu went to Chicago State Uni.

uche87: This piece isn't aimed at discouraging anyone from relocating to the United Kingdom. The country has the 6th largest economy in the world and it offers massive economic opportunities for both the young and old. It is also beautiful and gives maximum exposure to people. But things are changing and they are changing rapidly. You need to be mentally prepared before you get ambushed by harsh reality. Keep the following factors in mind when trying to take the plunge.
(1) Limited job opportunities: As a fresh immigrant, it takes the grace of God to crack the white-collar job circle. Even if you get white-collar jobs, most of them don't offer visa sponsorships. So, they can't guarantee you any desired visa extensions. To someone who wants to stay back in the UK after studying, what's the point? For the blue-collar sector which apparently admits every willing or unwilling human being available, the jobs are disappearing. You must have heard viral stories of people on healthcare visas not getting shifts. As if this isn't enough, job opportunities are drying up in the less desired warehouses where hard labour is rife. The warehouses constituted the last hope of the common man those days. If you are hoping to gather money to pay your school fees from hustling in the UK, you might need to have a rethink.
(2) 20hrs Work Limitation: In recent times, there have been strong rumours of student visas being canceled by the Home Office, after the holders failed to stick to the 20-hour work restriction in a week. It is one of the most traumatic experiences an immigrant can face abroad. Imagine you are getting an email that your visa has been cancelled, while you are just settling in, with a huge debt hanging over your head. You might strongly consider detonating a Kim Jong Un-like bomb in your village to annihilate any witch/wizard that might be linked to your predicament.
(3) Housing Crisis: The housing crisis in the UK is so severe that people now take their house-hunting activities to the NSPPD altar at 7 a.m. It is not just about the exorbitant prices alone, it is about the stiff competition you will face from other applicants. It is as competitive as applying for civil service jobs in Nigeria and India. These so-called accommodations come in the form of "poultry" due to the relatively small sizes. They also come with massive paperwork that could be cumbersome for a new immigrant to satisfy. This isn't the challenge an immigrant wants to face due to its overwhelming nature.
(4) High Cost Of Living: Living costs constitute a global issue and it is highly multi-factorial in nature. Major cities in the UK like London, Manchester, Sheffield, Bristol, Birmingham, etc., have been hit by mass migration, thereby straining available public facilities. People with permanent jobs are feeling the heat not to talk of the casual workers living from one unassured shift to the other. For a man converting naira to pounds to cater for daily expenditure in the UK, the thoughts of running away, or committing suicide might be crossing his mind, at least 4 times in a day.
(5) Low Chances Of Staying Back: The chances of international students staying back in the UK after schooling are getting slimmer than the popular Nollywood actress, Lepa Shandy by the day. Before you know it, your 2-year post-study period would have elapsed and you might have to return home. Before now, healthcare visas have come to the rescue. Today, the opportunities have been abused and the forces of demand and supply have also affected sponsorship opportunities in the healthcare line. If you think you can easily marry a citizen to stay back, you might have to buy some anti-depressants, as a backup plan.
In conclusion, the best way to easily scale through these hurdles, and weather the storm might be by owning one of President Tinubu's controversial bullion vans.

[quote author=APOPTOSIS post=125420039]America never forgives. Avoid Crime at all cost. It's truly a land of opportunities. That's one country I know where someone can walk in with an empty wallet, a bottle of groundnuts and torn clothes and leave with genuinely acquired wealth.
Just avoid Crime and keep raking the money gradually. It may seem tough at the beginning, of which such is expected for any country but you must surely smile in the end. What I made in America in one year was more than what I made in Nigeria after 10 years of working in the Federal civil service. So pathetic Ogaaa.
I pray you recover from this mental distortion.
2 Things God will surely tell u to avoid in the U.S. 1st...Avoid Bad women @ all cost ( If possible all ladies) Finally......Avoid Bad Company and Crime. Thereafter, watch yourself glow with pride...[/quote Well said!

Has any top tier company expressly stated that CSU grads are automatically guaranteed employment?
