olalekan9320: Mr Multicultural ,These people you are backing often feel superior to you, and you only get their respect or love when you're operating with the same criminal mindset and planning to defraud the system

olalekan9320:the gist came from someone working there. Not everything is released externally. If you have friends in the bank ask them. By the way this is from today . Truck driver Komalpreet Sidhu arrested at the Boissevain port of entry with 406.2 kg of alleged meth . These are the people you are ing. A people determined to use mago mago to scatter the country for us all . Lmao https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/manitoba/winnipeg-man-boissevain-border-narcotics-bail-1.7102339 |

406.2 Kg of meth. People are very bold. Most likely not the first time. Based on the observation from the news, "Smuggling of this quantity of methamphetamine cannot fall into Mr. Sidhu's lap.… He did not get involved with this level of trafficking overnight," Sinclair said. "It takes years to earn the level of trust that he gained to smuggle in 406 kilograms of methamphetamine into Canada." I don't like stereotyping a particular country. In my over 20 years in Canada, having lived in three different provinces, I have met a lot of good and bad Indians. Not all of them are bad. They have their way of life. I have put a lot of them that I worked with before in their places when they bring their rubbish attitudes to work. Maria96: |

sanima770: Mr Homogenous, you literally move to this country less than 6 months ago or you aren't even here yet it's funny that you think a set of people are like this. If you're not dealing with low self esteem you would know that you're not inferior to anyone and you're as smart and equal to any other person whatever their race. If you just seeing someone and the only thing that can come to your head is "they're operating with a criminal mindset and planning to defraud the system" then you need to get your self checked o Added Poland is quite homogenous, hating people and discrimination might be allowed in US, we might be promoting tribalism in Nigeria and that's why we left but this is Canada, we shouldn't bring all of that here See someone saying some people are operating with criminal mindset when you were one step away to be an "illegal alien" like MAGA dumbo would say, guy, you and your friends attempted relocating to Canada on a visiting visa so that when you move you can claim asylum and start working immediately thus taking advantage of the system and making it more difficult for the locals to get jobs Do you know that it's because of people like you who got visiting visa and claimed asylum that turned Canada immigration system into a joke and one of the reasons why our PM is reg and you can open your mouth and call others criminal, look at yourself first. Just imagine because of how you planned taking advantage of the system, someone from nowhere says all Nigerians here moved here by claiming asylum through visiting visas because of you and your friends 2 Likes |

Maria96:I know many people working there and I never heard of this concorted news. I when some Nigerians were selling business/data/cyber security courses with some guaranteed jobs whereas they will only patch their resume with faux experience, now imagine an Indian, Pakistani or a white person saying all Nigerians are fraud and all they do is to fabricate experience because of those very tiny few that did, how would you feel if you had gotten yours the right away but you were painted with the same brush https://www.ctvnews.ca/canada/article/regina-man-accused-of-smuggling-nigerians-across-canada-us-border/ This is a Nigerian trafficking people across border and in your own words " you are part and ing the people determined to use mago mago to scatter the country for us all . Lmao" how would you feel if someone from another country saw the link above and says, Nigerians are human traffickers https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/windsor/drug-trafficking-ambassador-bridge-windsor-1.7424618 This a white man doing the same thing and in your words too," these people are doing using mago mago to scatter this country" I don't even have to search to see all of these things, please nobody should quote the links I added as I would be removing them later 2 Likes |

olalekan9320: When people (rightly) call out MAGAts for being racists, or Nigerian society for being soft on cyber crimes , I don't think any sensible person would be against such Because there is some element of truth to the discussion regardless of how you feel, there is a normalised culture of fraud and dubiousness in that community add a sprinkle of a false sense of superiority over black folks, and nepotism in hiring practices It doesn't mean that people should go breaking their heads or anything, it just means people should be aware and move accordingly.

olalekan9320:Anyone with common sense (apparently you don't have any) knows that there is no way EVERYBODY from a particular country will act the same way. Not all whites are racist Not all Nigerians tolerate fraud But it is also common sense to know that certain behavioural traits are fairly common in certain groups and mentioning it does not mean everybody in that group act that way |

This is my last post on this topic sha. To iterate to those moving here, I know as humans we're all inherently bias but please take people has they come. If you have hatred for some set of people it might consume you first sha that's the thing. These people are far from perfect just like every other group of people in this country but don't internalize those things that you see on twitter

So far, Trumps shenanigans hasn't had a significant effect on the Canadian market as he seems to have been posturing. I wonder how that'd feed into the next election with the current government raising alarm bells |

Maria96: Quite rich coming from a Nigerian. Should we discuss how Igbos are the problem with Nigeria? |
| orjohn24: 7:40am On Feb 08 |
olalekan9320: Calling people out for bad behavior is not hatred. You are simply acting unwisely. Many Canadians are already calling them out, and they are resorting to the same weak defense of hiding behind accusations of racism—just like you are doing now. Sorry, but your defense is weak! |

orjohn24: So how is nairaland the best place to call the out? Why not walk up to the next Indian you see and call him or her out or carry a placard calling them names? If you continue being preoccupied with them rather than improving ourselves or community, how do you expect to rise? 2 Likes |

RodgersAkpafu: I have heard on Nairaland and Twitter how they are the problem with Nigeria- how they killed 'good' Nigerian leaders in a coup, how they only sell fake goods, how they only do drugs, how they only engage in pr0stitvtion, how landlords don't want to rent to them, how 'shinedu' should never be allowed to aspire for any political position outside the East, how they are the ones supplying bokoharam drugs and guns, how they only cheat in exams, how the north got tired of them resulting in many riots over time where thousands of them were killed, how anyone of them who is rich is usually engaged in fraud, how any of them should never be allowed to be the Nigerian president, how violence should be meted out to any who dares come out to vote outside their region. Infact some have advocated or gone on to kill when a wanted political candidate didn't win. Even the wife if the current president had something negative to say about them Igbos have been receiving it heavily on Twitter - if you have not experienced their attitude, then its either you are one of them or have not met them. 3 Likes |

jedisco: Some POVs. .... 1) The orange-haired one is a clown. I will not dignify him and his adherents with even mentioning his name. But let's not be scornful, so we will oxymoron-ize him as a crafty clown! 2) The hot mic comments (I do not even believe it was a true hot mic. JT is no clown but he's crafty - he and Macron are the only leader of a G7 nation that survived COVID. These embers are dying but they can burn) by Trudeau yesterday means the orange-haired one's motive matches his comments. But his action is having the opposite effect, Canadians are not rolling out the red carpet to welcome 'America'. Now Canadians are unified (?) against his 51st state comments. 3) His 51st state comments and the threat of tariffs are mutually inclusive. Stay with me, it will get 'gooder'. 4) The position of the official opposition in politics means that they will break out in paroxysms of schadenfreude if something bad happens. This is what my people will call - Jakinidodo. Something bad happens when tariffs are levied against the country (Yes, the removal of interprovincial barriers to trade means that shortfall from tariffs can be offset to an extent). 5) Notice how the tone of PP changed when there was just the lone threat of tariff and when it was the double barreled threat of tariff + 51st state comments - he was suddenly advising the government and dialing down on the vitriol. After all, as long as it is projected in the media that the tariff problem is averted, then JT shines. The Liberal stocks soar with the increasing anti-American sentiments. PP's egungun will be careful now, this is 190km/hr highway. 6) The moment anything comes up that ties PP (including dual citizenship - see Andrew Scheer) or the Cons to 'looking forward' or 'wanting' the tariffs to happen so the whole economy can come crashing down and they get to point fingers at JT/Liberals . Wahala don happen for them Cons. polling experts are being cautious about PP's chances of forming a majority government with the emergence of MC (look away now CF) as the front runner for the Liberal party flag bearer. Also, PP needs majority because he may not have allies. Yes, they can form a minority government with BQ but Liberal stocks are rising in Quebec again to the extent that it is even matching that of BQ. 7) Expect a lot of jinks and feigns in the incoming weeks/months. 2 Likes |

olalekan9320: You have spoken well, Chief. “If only it were all so simple! If only there were evil people somewhere insidiously committing evil deeds, and it were necessary only to separate them from the rest of us and destroy them. But the line dividing good and evil cuts through the heart of every human being. And who is willing to destroy a piece of his own heart?” ― Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago 2 Likes |

RodgersAkpafu: 1) Slapper. I do not play in the 'mud' so I would not know what those nasty experiences are. You should try flying one of these days. It is civil up there and people do not call others derogatory names. 2) Let's do the basics. You are 'unhappy' with a group of people because you feel they are gaming the Canadian immigration system. The reason you are unhappy has to do with the fact that you have tried to and probably are still trying to move to Canada but age is counting against you and this is not obviated by education attainment. 3) It's a new year. Another birthday and your score reduces by multiple points. Instead of talking to people about what you can do to boost your score, you are here picking fights. What is funny is that there are folks in Canada hailing your racist comments oblivious to the fact that they have more to lose - a case of the Judas goat leading the naive and simple to the slaughter. 4) I expect you to take a moment to think about the solution to your problem. You can explore learning French , PNP , Atlantic Immigration etc. Reposition your mind away from all these gripes and start acting! 3 Likes |

ferfer: All your assumptions are WRONG That's the problem you ppl have You think expressing reservations have to do with personal interest Migration to Canada based on my personal circumstances won't be so difficult for me IF I CHOOSE TO. The UK has been so good to me these years I've been here Everything I say here is for two reasons 1. To call BS out AND 2. To warn gullible and impressionable newcomers from my country going to Canada (or the UK, my side of the fence) That's it You say I am "picking fights" Picking fights with who ? Most definitely not my fellow nigerians (cos I love yall) and most definitely with no "pajeet" either All I do is to warn ppl of how SOME of these fellows can be.... It's left for you to accept Or continue living in dreamland and "being in solidarity " with people who hate your guts. It's up to you 1 Like |
