Saviour22: u are not a Nigeria but South Africa be proud of ur country don't be a coward
So i must paint the true to be proud of my country. You know nothing about xenophobia and northern nigeria still kill nigerians in the name of xenophobia.
Saviour22: useless comment south Africans are hostile people, so u mean south Africans don't do drugs and woring? south Africans are evil people they are here on this forum nothingh about them surprise me,
I never said South Africans don't do drug but nigerians are the dealers and i never disputed the fact that they are hostile and violent, its an after effect of the apatheid battle and beside dont forget they also kill themselves by per second or minute billing.
South africa is a very rough country, crime rate is extremely high? South africans kill more of themselves than foreigners on a daily basis. They have their weakness too and nigerians constitue alot of problems due to their porous legal system that encourages the criminal. What some nigerians do in south africa no foreigners can do one tenth of it and still be living in nigerian. The menace of the drug user and addicted prostitutes being caused by nigerians is outrageous. Mind you am a nigerian and jungle justice, bakassi boys and opc security still kill nigerians to curtail crimes. Its quite unfortunate that the good ones always pay the price because most of the prepatrators always get informed either from their south africa male or female friends or the cops. South africans kill themselves more on a daily basis than foreigners, it's the after effect of apartheid battle.
It happened to a female family friend whom I know very well. She has been battling with that for very long time and doesn't have boyfriend whatsoever.
I know that God is now working on her situation.
Most of the causes of spiritual husband or wife thing is from either the father or mother, in seek of wealth or position, whereas putting the children (especially first born) in bondage.
Besides, Adekola Odunlade did a movie concerning such titled Olu Odo.
Whoa, i never knew the deeds of ones parent could attract spirit spouse.
VULCAN: What he did with that guitar? Mesmerizing. An unforgettable performance. True Genius has indeed left us. He outplayed living legends on that stage
Prince was not just an artist but a magican with the guitar, naptu are you in the music industry? You have a broad taste & history on music.
unohbethel: at the colded, this is the truth..av been askin myself this question since:y is that upon all chebe's accomplishments, he wasnt given a noble award?? u just gave the answer..thanks
The both tried to liberate the black race thru their professions, the whites were scared of their level of mentality and exposure. At that time black oppression was at its peak in america, europe and south africa.
Two great legends, freedom fighters, liberators. The both of them had great impact on my life. They were both denied grammy and noble laurent awards because they were emancipating the black race.
I have no problem being friends with Nigerians, some are good people. In relationships, I just don't see it happening.
No hard feelings though.
Atleast you accepting bit by bit. Most couples started like that, lots of females said that about relationships. Chilax babe, you are destined to be with a nigerian.
XhosaNostra: If you could see my man, you'd punch yourself in the face (on my behalf) for even coming up with such demented thoughts. I got standards now
Most definitely, beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder so your man could be angel knight, but you and i both know you have a flair for nigerians. Take it easy babe, i never expected you to always paint nigerians good that would make you look quite unappealing. Keep your game up babe Dont forget when you finally marry a nigerian.
Gerrard59: You are right with the first point - someplace somehow, a cemetery was in place.
However, it's not a black man problem. Asians - Singaporeans, Japanese, Hong Kongers generally avoid flats that someone died in. Called haunted apartments. Developers even avoid number 4 or 5 when numbering buildings due the superstition with dead people.
@OP, My mom will say "as long as no be me kill am, I've no problem". Your choice to decide 'cos I can't really tell you what to do with your money.
just because the grave has a tombstone,if its was an unmarked grave he would move in peacefully.
It's not white people who put Africans down, but Africans themselves.
Asia and South America are more religious than Africa, but they simply want to say Africa is backward because of religion. Africans are backward because of the type of mind that person you quoting has.
i also forgot to quote south america,i guess after colonization. asian and very serious with their religion and are backed by their government.
To the average African mind Africans are superstitious. That's because they've never left their backyard to interact in other continents. Asians are very superstitious people, practice spiritism. Chinese in particular are very religious by the way of ancestral worship and even have ancestral homes in which they have shrines.
Anybody with experience will tell you that Caucasians, Asians, Aborigines, etc are more spiritually inclined and superstitious than Africans. To imagine that things like teen Wolf come from the minds of non Africans is a sure teller that Africans aren't even half as superstitious as the rest of the world.
I happen to know a Wiccan and the person is Caucasian American. Not African. So don't bother with people who aren't exposed.
please tell him.to them africa is the most superstious and religious. asia and religion is something else. americans loves weird and bizzare things and religion.
China has the world's greatest irreligious population. The Chinese government is officially atheist. Despite limitations on certain forms of religious expression and assembly, religion is not banned, and religious freedom is nominally protected under the Chinese constitution. Among the general Chinese population, there are a wide variety of religious practices.The Chinese government's attitude to religion is one of skepticism and non-promotion. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irreligion_in_China
From the link you can see the Chinese government is atheistic and non-promotion of religions, I'm waiting where you got your claims from.
All these satanism, Luciferian are parody religions, how many Americans are satanists? Like I said the religious people in America are enlighten, they don't go about talking about religion and superstitions, you can't hear them talking about flying witches, shrinking diccks, demons, spirit spouse, mysterious snake swallowing money and many other superstitious beliefs. They don't take religion serious in that state like it's done here in Nigeria. They embrace science and technology.
I have seen it and not wikipedia reports. Make your research on chinesse government and their clamps down on chrisrian and islam, just some few days back they banned all bible sales online despite the fact they are the highest printers of the bible. In asia south korea and japan are still mild on christians.
Where did you read China is a highly religious and superstitious nation? You must be watching too much Kung Fu movies.
China persecute other religions yes I can agree with that.
Most people in US are irreligious even those that are religious are enlighten, they don't take religion serious probably deists, they don't believe in superstitions, the overzealous religious people are mostly immigrants.
Africa still remains the most backward religious continent in the world.
I didnt read but saw it, even till now the chinesse government supports only buddhist and taoism. America still have more religion and secret societies than any other countries, where in africa is satanism, luciferian, witch craft registered and practicing as a religion. Not to mentions other bizarre religions. America exports all these bizarre new or existing religion to the world.
For those who cant afford a laundry machine, i dont see anything wrong washing her panties if she is ill or sick. Your wife is your deputy, partner and not a slave.
tintingz: People having problems is not new, the difference here in Africa is we take every single thing as spiritual problem which is not.
This is another reason Africa will never develop until we drop this superstitious mentality.
Its not an african thing, asia are more religious and superstious than the whole of africa, china persecute other religions especially Christian and islam and promotes only buddhist and taoism, china is a highly religious and superstious nation. America have more religion and secret societies than all african nations put together and they are still advances.
Martinez19: Africans and magical thinking. I can't marry a lady that is involved in this kind of magical thinking. Shame!
Magic is not an african thinking, it cuts across all countries and continents. I laugh when people complain about africa being superstious. Asian countries are more religious, magical and superstious. You don't believe in something doesnt mean it does not exist. Aethist dont believe in christ and satan both they both have existing place of worship witg worshippers.
Mzansian: LMFAO, if that is the case then most of us would be interested in you, don't you think? . But that's hardly the case , it's usually the lazy ones who want to drink and waste their lives on the streets that go for you. How many working class SA women have you ever seen hanging around your people ?. It's always the directionless ones who need a man to leeche off and they know it's easy to control a Nigerian man, something they can't do to their own.
Like I said the average SA girl sees sleeping with Nigerians as an abomination. That's why you are surrounded by cheap , hungry h'oes with no prospects. No one will take them in , but they know you will take them in with her 4 kids from different fathers. Same applies here , most SA wouldn't sleep with you for booze but there are those who " prefer " Nigerian men, and they are usually free givers with multiple STDs. And yes those SA girls adore you a lot lol.
Am not surround by cheap hoes and beside i have traveled to lots of countries across the world. Alot of the educated SA girls are my friends and they don't believe am a nigerian unless i tell them. Lots of the educated SAn females are also married to nigerians too. There are also lots of nigerians that are working as doctors, lectures etc in SA and are married to SAn. Most of your girls meet the hustling ones on the street. It seems a nigerian broke your heart and you are yet to forgive or get over it..... Get off your emotions and move ahead with life.
Mzansian: @ the bolded. Most amongst the ones who can stomach Nigerians. Girls who date Nigerian men make up less than 1% of our population. I agree , you almost always attract the worst of our sisters . There is a reason why if a lady says she has dated a Nigerian, no guy wants her , even people in her family will start being condescending towards her. That's because generally , women who go with Nigerians are usually considered borderline prostitutes, drunkards who sleep with anything with money. By the way Nigeria has cheap h'oes as well, social media exposes them daily, even here on nairaland.
Btw , the average SA girl and the Nigerian one clearly can't be compared. We don't ask for cars , we work with our men to get the cars we have or we work for them on our own. Unless you are talking about what is called * gold diggers* ?. Then you can compare those lagos girls to our own gold diggers in Sandton / Houghton -GP, Zimbali -ND, Clifton -CA ,PRETORIA East- GP.
Obviously if you came to SA classless and tasteless, you are going to attract your mates.
South african girls like nigerians simply because nigerians treat them better and dont abandon their kids. SA guys just like being a baby father but a nigerian would take care of her and her kids, we dont abandon responsibilities. An average nigerian girl even student cant unzip because of booze and food but rather some thing worth more. Alot of business and companies in nigeria were built by couples. Not all nigerians are pimps and drug dealers.
XhosaNostra: True @ the bolded, especially the bad hygiene part. We all know it. It's even more shocking when you meet one who actually does smell good, it's like meeting a unicorn They're like Zimbabweans in that regard, too many smellos. Well, we can't deny that some do date them, but are they the type of women most men would proudly "take home to mama"? Most of them are not. Usually they go for the drinking & clubbing type, who'll sleep with anyone who'll buy them another round of drinks. Out of all the girls I know who are either dating or married to Nigerians, only 2 of them I can say without a shadow of doubt that they have a good reputation, the rest don't. Beautiful or not, a normal man would never be proud of someone they courted over with a 6 pack of Savannah Let the delusions commence lol.
Lol. I can view from your pespectives of an average nigerian in SA. The true is 80% of the nigerians guys you meet in south africa are not/half educated, alot came to SA without spending a nite in lagos or abuja. They are what you guys call location base. The real educated lagos, abuja or nigerian guys are very few in SA infact they come around for vacation or business deals, you find lots in uk, america, canada, europe, australia, lagos and abuja. Some nigerians could be lousy and since most SA girls would get down for just booze and food, it was boom hit for all. Some lagos girls would demand shopping worth $1000, trip to dubai or a car and their guys are getting it easier and cheaper from another part of the continent. Alot of nigerian girls cant stand guys that are based in SA, they complain they have no regards and respect for females but those are lives and habits they learnt from SA.
SIRmanjar: Femi kuti is an idiot..A stupid son of a drug addict. If they don't rise up against the blood thirsty durllard..Who will?
How dare you address his father as a drug addict? Who is your father compared to fela? Is your name on google or wikipedia? Is your father a grammy nominee or nominated by any international bodies or organization? Your words and mindset just exposed the kind of home you were raised.
Imagine pranking your wife you have another family outside, that marriage is good as dead because you cant convince her that its a lie and she would suspect you for the rest of the marriage. Some pranks are so expensive.
trustcon: Name - Med__Naija Website - mednaija.com
BUSINESS DESCRIBTION This is an online clinic which will serve the key purpose of making health care in our country easily accessible and affordable by reducing patient waiting time while visiting a hospital , and also cutting down cost. It will do this by developing a very user friendly website and mobile apps where patients who have illnesses that are not emergencies are able to access a qualified doctor just by first answering few questions. The service we provide is Counseling and provision of medically standardized management plan for common diseases.
We will handle virtually all the non emergency health conditions based on the 8 systems in the human body.
The following is a schema of what the experience will be like on our website and mobile app. Patient(px) visits our website or mobile app >>> px goes through all the 8systems listed >>> px locates the system where his symptoms fall under >>> px selects all the symptoms he is currently having under that system >>> px answers questions about each of the symptoms( this follows our normal 5c's clerking routine in real time practice just that it's now being stereotyped with all the variable questions inscribed) >>> px is asked to select any other symptoms from the remaining 7systems ( this is our normal review of system) >>> px is asked to detail all other medical worries >>> px is thanked and asked to please wait for less than 30mins for management plan by a qualified doctor on call.
Now the questionnaire is a script which once completed will be submitted to the doctor on call who will look into it and make a provisional diagnosis and then come up with a management plan which is then sent back to the patient.
In situation where investigations would be required, px is asked to do so and come back.
In cases of chronicity that would need hospital admission, patient is then refereed to any of our partner hospitals which is close by the px.
POSSIBILITY OF GROWTH OF TOTAL MARKET. Well even though Africa as a whole has been known to be very slow in development, I still have to admit that we have not really done so bad in the recent years considering the exponential increase in our internet usage. Cost of health care is very high in this region need I say more. I and a friend started a group on Facebook which we called MEDICSPLACE. The aim of the group was just to unite all the medics but before we could realize what was happening we already had 8,000 page likes and followers most of which were not even medics. Within few days our inbox began to flood with massages pertaining health condition and solutions from our followers. It donned on us that it was high time we created an avenue where people can access quality health care online without leaving their comfort zone. Actually that is the sole aim of internet in the first place. So with certainty I know that there will be an exponential growth if we do all we say we will do. For the past 2months we have also created a Facebook group called Med__Naija and have since then handled more than 100medical worries from people for free. This just helps elaborate the more , the need for an online healthcare.
BUSSINESS OPPURTUNITY Looking at the enormous amount of heavy internet users in Nigeria and the cost of health care in our country it becomes very clear that any genuine approach to health care that is less expensive and less time consuming would be gladly embraced provided it is well sold to the population. Now moving away from individual level, we can serve as the health care providers for staffs of major companies in the country at a very affordable cost effective rate. We can also assume the post for medical fitness examination/certification for several Government job openings. We will also be offering sells of simple medical devices on our online spaces these would include; glucometers, thermometers, weighing scales , sphignomameters and lots of more recent technological tools in medicine.
FACTORS THAT IS LIKELY TO AFFECT GROWTH. Poor website and mobile application: this is key to growth because if the website is not easily navigable and user friendly then the whole aim is defeated. Poor response from the doctors Poor customer care Inconsistency in marketing and advertisement

RETURNS ON IVESTMENT.
For the beta stage our aim is not soley for profit… we aim to promp the peoples mind on the need seek expert care online. So we shall be running a free service for the 1st one month.
Sunsequently, the service charge shall be $5(₦1,500) per management plan prepared. I will use an estimate of 100 management plans on the average per day for my calculations. Returns per month = $5 X100 X 30days =$15000(₦5.25million) Returns per 3 months = $15,000 X 3 =$45,000 (₦15.75million) Returns per year = $15,000 X 12 = $180,000 (₦ 63 million)
From above Cost for running per year = $63,000 (₦22.13million) Return per year = $180,000 (₦63million) Income per year = $180,000 - $63,000 = $117,000 (₦41million)
Note I used an average of 100 management plans per day… as time goes on with very stron publicity and quality services we could go ad high as 500 management plans per day.
FUTURE PROJECTION OF THE COMPANY. This is my future projections for this company. STAGES AND MILE STONES BETA STAGE CONSOLIDATION STAGE EXIT STAGE.
BETA STAGE Time span = 3-6 months This is the initial stage of the company where all the risks are taken by the founding team. This team should have 10 key roles but not necessarily 10 team members. So it can be just 4persons playing this 10roles. The roles include-visionary(CEO), project development,operation/strategy(COO),business development,finance(CFO),marketing(CMO),legal,information,sales,expansion(CEO). These roles need to be well covered for us to reach our future goals.
MAIN GOAL OF THIS STAGE To have 5 million active daily users out of the 92 million active internet users in Nigeria.
This goal seem difficult but very actualizable if we do the proper planning.
The key to achieving this are; 1. A very user friendly website and mobile app.
2. The simplicity but yet medically standardized approach of our care. But the learned and unlearned will comfortably use our services. Also our quick and always very helpful response.
3.consistency...what I mean here is simple. -Daily advertisement and marketing... -wonderful customer services with an 24/7 online support and call follow up for customers that didn't complete their process. -new fliers and video per day.. -dedication in improvement of services.
4. The right team and attitude... this can not be over emphasized..with the right team members all sharing the same dream, the sky is our limit.
If we implement these points and more I am certain that our beta project will be a success.
If we succeed at this stage we can then advertise for investment to Angels and venture capitalists (VC) based on the success of our beta stage. If they come in we will then move to the next stage which I call the consolidation stage..where we will brake new grounds and new territory.
CONSOLIDATION STAGE.
During this consolidation stage we shall have 10 sets of capital raising named series A-J every 3months during which we will offer more shares to more angels and VCs. After the last series (i.e series-J) then we will go into the last stage which I call the Exit stage.
MAIN GOAL TO RAISE ENOUGH FUND FOR THE FOLLOWING PROJECTS. Develop a door step drug delivery system for all our prescriptions . Develop a nation wide paramedic stations at strategic spots all round the country. Develop a nation wide ambulance service system for all sort of emergency and accidents. Erect a modern day hospital in each of the 36 states of the country where all chronic and emergency cases will be handled.
EXIT STAGE At the Exit stage we should have become I multi billion company with thousands of shares which we will sell to the public during our IPO, listing us in the stock market.
Now I will list the expected mile stones and timeline. TIME LINE BETA STAGE = 3 -6 months Consolidation Stage = 10 series of capital raising each 3 moths apart = 30 months(2 ½ years) Exit stage = A year after the completion of the consolidation stage.
So we hope to go public in the next 4 feasible years, all by Gods grace.
Now this is a very brief documentation of this company is all about however there is more to it than meets the eye. For more details on this project, feel free to talk with the C.E.O. ofili Emmanuel (08160095632) Ofilichinonso@gmail.com
Thank you for patiently going through this file we hope it steamed your interest and we are looking forward to doing business with you.
The best thing that would happen to SAn is to never allow julius malema to rule SA unless Zimbabwe would be better than SA. He would chase alot of investors out of the country and also scare away potential forthcoming investors.
XhosaNostra: Yeah. There's blood over the land. No-one wanted to give up power. After all, South Africa is a beautiful country, naturally. They always threaten to leave. Some do leave, but I hear they don't do well in their adoptive countries, they miss home. They're just waiting for the dust to settle.
Quite interesting and intriguing documentary, they are stuck in a fix. There home is SA but left because of their skin, even if they trace their ancestral home which their great grand father told them about they would still live like strangers there because they arent a citizen of there. Since the whites in south do have conflict (anglo and british) then the blacks have an upper hand. Just like the african americans. The black SAn where lucky, they would have lost their home like the red indians in america. Thanks for the nugget of history knowledge you made me get.

True be told SA is a beauty country landscape, wheather and structures. The bride of the continet. Whats your stake on julius malema and the land issues?
