Gradually Nigerians will learn what racism is because it seems most of our people think there is logic to it or it's normal thinking.
If someone is racist, they will rather become poverty stricken than receive money from black customers. Many luxury brands have openly asked black people to stop buying their products even though that is their main customer base and their fellow whites are not interested. It is a mental illness

Tell them!
I mean even Oprah Winfrey, the richest black woman in the world, experienced racism at a luxury store in Switzerland some years ago.

... Not that im defending these Chinese people, but I've been to China and I know their tradition, Chinese people are extremely discreet, they don't like sharing anything with you. That's why they live in clusters, Chinatown. You hardly see Chinese people intermingle with commoners. And they do it to everyone including Europeans not just blacks alone. I think it's an Asian thing.
I believe why the restricted Nigerians there is fear of their safety, because from the report it started January this year and it was this January that dollars started skyrocketing and food stuffs increased astronomically. So they feared that Nigerians might want to loot their shops or do something sinister to them..

"Not that im defending these Chinese people"... then goes ahead to defend them. Duh.

Read the REBUTTAL post below to get a different perspective on this. I don't personally know this lady who is a Fellow of ICAN but folks online have to be careful about reading FAKE news and helping to spread criminally defamatory posts online.

Thanks, will do.

This woman and controversies. She isn't the first female MD of a company so why her? The likes of her and Betta Edu are supposed to be the new generation female leaders but just take a look at the mess they have made in just a short time. Very unfortunate.

So many funny comments on this thread. Nigerians don't disappoint, very predictable.

mekleelex200:
Another stupid post for Monday morning. The owner of the post and who pushed it to front page is full of sh*t upstairs.

hahahaha. I feel your vex. Of all topics on a MONDAY morning.

Stargurl20:

I'm not. In fact, I don't see how relevant it's to my dreams or career. Being here can kill one's potential. I've decided already. And by God's grace, I will be making my intention known by next week.

Wish you the best.

some of u need to be beaten up fr d kind of comments u make

As in, proper cane.

Appletek:




Ifeanyi stole from Ike and Obinna here is justifying it.

The enemy of an Igbo man anywhere is another Igbo man.

Here they come, tribalism has done a number on some of you. Smh.

@OP, sorry for your loss.

codemaniacs:


the name on the passport gives away the ethnicity of the person..

so there is tribe on the passport.

You don't get my point.
The foreign person at border control checking your passport has no clue what your tribe is neither are they interested in knowing, all they see is your NIGERIAN passport. Same with when you're interviewing for foreign opportunities, all they see is you're Nigerian.

So at the end of the day, we are simply doing a disservice to ourselves by rubbishing different parts of the country under the guise of tribalism.

Raskimonojendor:
Oh. That was a long time ago. I just returned from the UK after my degree. I interviewed with Rocket Internet just before they set up Jumia in Nigeria. I was given a verbal offer. I accepted, worked one week and quit. I think I was interviewed by a German and Spanish guy like in Ikoyi.

The job was business development and it too too was stressful. Lagos traffic wanted to drive me crazy.

So you are this exposed yet spend valuable time trolling online. Why on earth would anyone do that to themself?

Emeskhalifa:
Obviously they don't want other countries to see that bad things happen in their country.

It is only in Nigeria that you will see a Nigerian goes online badmouthing his country before foreigners, making his country a laughing stock. I wonder where patriotism is

No country is perfect but Nigerians think it is only Nigeria that is bad.

Well said.
Tribalism is also one of the main issues, you see people pasting unflattering pictures about the other tribe's areas not realizing they are contributing to damaging the image of the country. The Nigerian passport has no tribe so we are ALL seen as Nigerians at the end of the day by outsiders. People should desist from this.

I didn't stay up to a month.
After staying Idle at hone for a while, i got this job at an upscale restaurant in Uyo. The job description was for that of a Manager/Assistant, the pay was 40k, and after calculating the transportation cost from my bat cave to work, it was worth it, I was told we would be on shifts between 8am - 3pm, 3pm-10pm, Mondays - Sundays. Well, i was tired of being Idle, might as well just work myself to stupor, i got the job. Brothers and Sisters, ladies and gentlemen, after a week, the shifts didn't start and i was working from 8am - whatever time the guests leave, most times I'd get home by 1am . I took it up to the owner and head chef, she said it would be sorted out as soon as she got one more person to add yo the workforce. Omor, a week passed again and still no one came, plus the working environment was always teased when the owner was around. She's impatient, gets angry easily. That was my concern as every job had it's yunno... Few days to when the bubble bursted, I was doing my usual morning routine of stock taking as it was part of my job as the Assistant manager, I got talking with the kitchen staff, and I was told she severely hit one of the girls the day before and she got injured, at first, i thought it was a joke till the girl herself showed me, i was shocked and proceeded to ask if she had always been that way, they said "Yes oooo, infact before you resumed, one girl left because she was constantly receiving beatings from the boss" I laughed sha, cos it all seemed like a joke, till it happened right before my eyes. Guests arrived after booking for dinner, and at that point the food wasn't ready due to the fact that the boss didn't release money in time for things to be bought, and when the money came, it was almost time for dinner. Guests arrive, Boom!!, generating set went off, Ahan! , walahi i became confused, without electricity, the kitchen couldn't function. I tried to be calm as the head huncho at the time, but i couldn't seem to now wha happened. At this time, some of the guests were already eating, while some were waiting. I had no option than to call the boss to inform her bout the situation (wrong move as all hell broke loose). When she arrived, she didn't speak to me, not one word to me, the generating set came back on, but at this time, the guests who were yet to get their meal were already murmuring, but a good number of people were already getting their meals. I went into the diner to try to pacify the guests as the food would soon be out, as i was doing so, i heard noise outside, didn't know where it was coming from, but i knew something was wrong. I stepped into the kitchen to see madness. One of the girls who was preparing a meal was pinned to the wall by her throat while holding a spatula as she was preparing semo, and thus semi was on the gas, which was still on. There was pepper all over the floor, the manager (a lady) was her knees begging for her life, the boss's kids were crying and begging her to stop and calm down. It's was chaos in that kitchen. Unfortunately the boss got wind of the fact that some guests had not been served and she exploded! She held the girl by her throat, pinned her to the wall yelling, i came in just in time to release her grip. I begged sha . No be small thing that day, she left the girl, got hold of the second girl, began to hit that one, i screamed and at that point she faced me, omor , she held me by my collar saying "you'll kill me" "you want to ruin my business" all i kept saying was "I'm sorry ma" omor, she no gree o. As i kept begging, she was attacking everyone in the kitchen. I stood up from the floor in anger, went back into the diner, dropped the organization's phone, picked up my bag, phones and chargers and left. I have worked as a data entry officer at a prominent mall in Uyo for 4 years, never have i seen anything like that before. Prior to that day, since i got there it's been from one level of anger to the other. The dissatisfaction, the anger, the impatience. No matter what we did, it wasn't enough. But she's a nice lady though, but naaaaa.

Mehn, I read your comment from beginning to end, that woman has severe anger issues and I'm almost sure she beats her husband at home. Nasty behaviour. Such a violent woman.

Stargurl20:


Do you mean the salary I'm being paid monthly?

Honestly, it not that stressful but very time demanding. Waking up as early as 4-4:30 am and closing by almost 7pm daily. It's one day off in a week. No observation of public holidays

Are you learning and developing skills in your current job? If yes, I would advice you persevere. There are different seasons in life, including the time to bear difficulties for the sake of the greater good in terms of future prospects.

The mad people of Nigeria will come hear and stray convulsing
Let me wait for them

Are you sure you're not already convulsing?!

@OP, great news.

TrennixGLOBAL:


Bro just shut ur mouth with this your tribalist trash talk.

You lots always destroying all the threads and topics on Nairaland with tribalism.

Don't mind him. A lot of them have nothing doing with their lives, so just come online to waste it. Wasted destinies.

Benwallt:


You must be talking from experience. Let me guess, you learnt the hard way thereby you purged yourself of tribalism after getting burnt. Learn how to play and don't put all your eggs in one basket.

Smh. Continue.

Benwallt:


We learnt very well from the tribalists themselves. How Obi win the whole 5 states in the southeast at 99% if not suffocating tribalism?

Continue. It's your life. One day you will look back and wonder how it went.

Benwallt:
This is hard work here not children of hate working hard to possess certificate they can't defend after NYSC

Curious345:
I noticed that only Yoruba guys are paying him a visit and hyping him ..

Is it a Yoruba nation thing ?

You people have started again, may God deliver you from this. Someone is out there achieving destiny, you are online promoting tribalism, beht why?

helinues:
How many games he won, how many lose?

All this trying to break Guinness world record of whatever is brain draining. The energy spent on just such period of time would affect so many other things.

Those who have been breaking whatever records since, what have they achieved after then?

At least he is using his time productively rather than posting aimless comments on nairaland 247.

P.S. - He's achieved a lot with Chess2Slums and this win will bring even more visibility. Congrats Tunde Onakoya.

MajorOvakporaye:


Some Nigerians sef. You see am and you still dey ask.

😂😂 he wan double check, haha

nairalanda1:
Ah, the usual igbos vs Yoruba thread.

Sitting here with the popcorn as I watch grown ass men disgrace themselves.

( Munch munch)

Kind of a disgrace we have child labor, even in the OPs home region.

Anyway, let the show begin.

( You can use the ignore button )

Aptly put. I call it the show of shame, thread after thread, that's all they do. Bunch of unproductive human beings.

So, after burying the eggs, what next?

Na wa for this transcript, "batching"
It's everything people must sha put online.

Why is the ring on her right hand though?

Does this guy know the meaning of BAIL? He's not free yet.

I love how this guy represents Nigeria positively, even in his dressing, very authentic guy. Tunde, we are all rooting for you.

Zikoko again. If they are not actively promoting LGBTQ, they are promoting prostitution. They used to write very unique funny articles that an average Nigerian could relate to, but somewhere along the line they simply lost it. I don't bother with their articles any longer, can't be wasting precious time to read rubbish.

As for the girl, her life, her choices, her consequences. Eod.

Max24:

I don't think you are current with the obidient movement. They believe Obi is the best thing after sliced bread. Anything Obi is perfect and anything Tinubu is deformed even when they see evidence to the contrary. Didn't you see them on this forum asking for coup in Nigeria after the Niger coup? Just because their kinsman lost election . I know why I said what I said.

Why are you derailing the thread?! This is about Dubai and weather, yet somehow you have turned this to political back and forth, haba. Let's try small na.
