Ilesha is a nice place to stay cheap foodstuffs , low life, u would save very well if you discipline yourself, good electricity,

But u have to be extremely prayerful.

It's a challenging town spiritually, despite 90% xtians.

I'm a native of the place, but I don't stay there, too full of spiritualist, .

Just be prayerful and u would survive the town.

That's what religion has done to this one. To the extent that he now uses his left hand to point his father's home. I wonder why the spiritualist didn't kill you all this while or why are people still living in the town. If you don't have better advice to give why don't u keep quiet. The OP is not asking for spiritual input but u just came to pour out spiritual jargons......mtchewwwww

Unrealistic Course, Nigeria Cannot divide, Its too late already. It would have been easier during Ojukwu era, but he made a costly mistake trusting a Westerner Late LT Col Victor Banjo

You need to revisit history. Even when Banjo plotted against Ojukwu, didn't Ojukwu kill him by a second tribunal.? Your knowledge of history is sure by "beer palour" talks. And it's ur like that will be shouting that Buhari banned Twitter when it is because of people like you who are bent on changing the history no matter what just to have what you want.

If a Yoruba or Igbo president had done these things, Hausa senators would have tried to impeach the president. What did Obasanjo do that they wanted to impeach him for if you could so that Atiku could take over then? What kind of union would you call this? How do you expect us to be together when you maltreat our people? If you want a union you would let me express myself if you want war stop my mouth. When I call some people parasites and cowards them say I insult people.

That is why twitter will remain banned because of narrative-twisters like you. When OBJ was about to be impeached, it wasn't because of Atiku get your fact right. And stop twisting narratives just to get likes or to burress ur thinking.

AntiBMC:

From soldiers guiding and pushing cows to getting into banters that they don't need to get involved with.

Nigerian military have now turned into an object of ridicule, a caricature.

You guys won't get sense at all and it's unfortunate. The fact is that journalists asked him if the purported video was Infact true and he placed his comment saying it's fake. Case closed. How has the military ridiculed itself. The fact is you know nothing about the military, I repeat u don't know shit about the Military. It's unfortunate that the internet has given toddlers the voice and right to interfere in matters that belong to the adult. Dey reason with your head. Ridicule ko, karikachop ni

I know people will flood ur email but I have lived in Canada n still living in Canada. Oga I can confirm ur assessment is fraudulent. I only pity those who will fall for this. Heaven on earth ko, rice on beans ni.

The poorest Americans are still richer than 80% of the world.

While.we are comparing the numbers of the curency can we also please compare the purchasing power??
We are quick to compare naira to dollar,cedis to naira, cefa,euros, gbp etc and we only do so in on figures.

Let me ask you,
I dollar is = 480naira (what is the purchasing power of both?
1 dollar can buy you a cup of coffee in the USA but 480 naira can buy you tea( coffee, lipton,milo and milk) +sandwich
1 dollar can buy you 1 or 2 bottles of water in usa but 480 naira can buy 6 or 8 bottles of water in Nigeria.
500 cefa can only buy you 1 bottle water which is 250 cefa and 1 bottle of malt drink 250 cefa,
500 naira in Nigeria can buy you water, malt,gala,biscuit,bread and akara/eggroll
100cedis in ghana cannot buy you what 9000 can buy in Nigeria, FACT

If not for our lack of productivity as a country we will not be an import dependent country aĺways seeking validation of foreign currency.

Guy you get time to dey explain ooooo. Anything to drag Nigeria in the mud is what everybody is after. Naija is muddy already but person wey dey cry dey see road. What #1000 can purchase do they thing 1100XOF can purchase it.........they just look at numbers but not the economics behind it.

Righteousness2:
It is amazing how Bible Prophecies are Flipping off the pages right in our eyes.
The Word of GOD is being Fulfilled live.

Watch out for the Isah 17, Psalm 83, and Ezekil 38 war! Very likely to spring up from this.

I Believe Isaiah 17:1 Prophecy about Damascus is around the Corner

I also believe the Collation of Nations( Gog Magog) against Israel will soon show up! ( Iran, Russia, turkey, China, Sudan, Somalia,etc) Ezekiel 38! Which will bring about the Fulfillment of the Prophecy of Zechariah 12 and Zechariah 14..

We are in Biblical times!
We are the Fig tree Generation!
We are the Generation that witnessed the Rebirth of Israel!
We are the Generation that will see JESUS!
The RAPTURE is upon us! Closer Ever than we imagine.
Get Set Folks!
It will be Suddenly! In a Twinkling of an Eye!

Ogbeni go and sleep. You think Israel and Palestine fight na today. I was awoken into intl relations in the early 90's by this same conflict and I wrote a thesis on it. So it is now that the word of God is just happening. It is simply because u have been sleeping or just became born again and got commissioned to preach online.

My friend shut up there..you have never and don't live in Canada so get lost. Who dash you visa sef, do you even know what inside a plane looks like sef..Nonsense. Look at this nonentithy oh.Nigeria is a useless country and I dont owe your useless life an apology for saying that. I have lived abroad for the past 8 years and I am 1000% sure I am doing far far better than your poverty decorated idiotic life or anyone in your generation and If I say Nigeria is a useless country.
Prove that it is not and I will rescind my position if not shut up and get lost. Be guided because I ain't your mate by any standard. Fool.

How come I am just reading this response? But then u must be a fool to assume that I am not living in Canada and a greater fool to say u aren't my mate by all standard. You are still part of the day to day Nigerians I meet in Canada. You all are just glorified paupers because u don dey collect $800 /$1000 per week so u are nobody's mate. Sorry for yourself. Oga living eight years abroad doesn't make u Lord over anybody. Dey calm down. There are countless people doing extremely well in Nigeria and don't plan to relocate save for the security situation in Nigeria. It's funny how your likes come to an online platform where u don't even know people or who they are or where they are writing from and yet u say u are Lord over them. Sorry ooooo Justin Trudeau. Ode oponu

Princess has alot of questions to answer...

-What kind of "help" was she rendering to the notorious pedophile?

-Why wait all that long to call out the useless child molester?

I am not in of what the Baba Molester did, but this clout chasing must stop...

Most of our long forgotten artist now use clout chasing to peddle their way back to limelight.

You must be sick in the head. I only pray that every female in your family and your own children experience what that girl has gone through and may you die in perpetual shame. Ode

It is not a sin it's just a question of morals.

You have no point. Zero point. You are only a crime apologist finding a way to justify lawlessness. The law is only created for would-be offenders and from ur rubbish u typed u only proved you are a would-be offenders in the future.

Is it only me that heard "You go loose your JOB"

Or did i hear JOB or Car

Seem as if they just entered Lagos.

Nevertheless, the forfeiture punishment is still too severe

No matter what the reason is, Forfeiture of your Vehicle is wrong.

Banning the person from driving for a time would have been more Logical.

IMO It is Heartless and Wicked to ask someone to forfeit his or her Vehicle due to a traffic offence and more so, sell it.

Corruption itself gradually creeping into our Laws.

I wish I can take the government to Court on that.


Edited

To you guys quoting me and giving reasons why the Cars should, I refuse to respond to you because its obvious you don't sound reasonable but rather bitter envious, wicked and hateful and without empathy.

All I sense is that you are not different from the wicked ones who lobbied for that that inhumane law.

Sooner or later, I hope life teaches your naive and myopic minds that "Cutting the head off doesn't cure Headache".

If you have not lived in the US or Canada or the UK. You will never understand what the OP is saying, all u will say is "why is he still there" cos the only thing that matters to you is Naira vs Dollars. Until u start paying bills u will know ur Naira dollar calculations inside your room in Naija does not translate to fulfilled abroad.

Why can't he come home? He can not because it's a rat race, once in you have to continue the cycle esp when u don't have nothing coming back home to do. He has to play his part in the race until otherwise.

Like I said, If you have never been there you summarily have no right to comment. To even start with. I can relate to what the OP intend to communicate and the rest is the fact that u guys will never and I mean Never understand until God grants you ur Visa and then we can discuss this later.

But still on the bright side, it is diff strokes for diff folks. Some are doing extremely well and fine and coping under the every hour/day/week/month pressure just like some of you will do. If u aren't wearing people's shoes, u can't complain for them. #PeaceOut

Oga, don't beg to differ anything, that's the way HR should go, he should introduce himself first. I don't live in Nigeria and for every job placement that I got called, the HR person spends the first 2minutes introducing his or herself and then confirms if he or she is speaking to xxxxx.

We just like the witch-hunting style and it seems normal to us. HR is a profession and it's also developing and you are here begging to differ on stupid school of thought. Learn more about HR in the 21st century and you will be able to speak more than to postulate an archaic and relics of HR of the 60's.



quote author=Richy4 post=100408930]

I beg to differ with you sir.... The HR is not at fault.... The fact that you started by introducing yourself does not mean it only work that way... It goes both ways..

If you call me for example and I don't know your number, What will it take me to say Hello richy4 speaking.. it's just like a default setting for me.... Then U will say hi to me by calling my name, then introduce yourself to me.... If due to certain reasons you forget to introduce yourself, thinking I know you and might recognize your voice... I will say may I know who is speaking please.... It's just common etiquette and manners.. she is mannerless.

when u said she should have been cautious as a job seeker, were you indirectly implying that she should pretend to be nice while speaking to You as a HR then later unleash the stuff she was made of while working with customers?...No wonder mannerless people occupy customer service positions if U as someone working with HR couldn't see what the other HR saw.... I'm glad that the experienced HR dictated it early.. there were lot of mannerless people in the bank those days especially in First Bank.. Imagine adding this one to their statistics... though I don't know if they were still like that.. .[/quote]

Corona virus find its way into a woman's belly to kill her unborn baby but won't find its way to one Villa like that and end the sufferings we are facing in Nigeria

Even if Buhari isn't the president of Nigeria today or Tomorrow what assurances do you have that things will change. We have a fundamental problem that transcends the presidency, even we as a citizen aren't a good people and it is reflective of the government we always have. Take Buhari away from Aso Rock and install another APC or PDP, same will be the issue.

Northern muslims hardly migrate to a foreign country to stay permanently.. it's very hard to see that happening because they know In Nigeria, the quota system will favor them as compared to western countries...

One thing I am sure is that she is from a wealthy family, so there is no need leaving the country to start again in a foreign land

You are so so wrong. I was like you before and now I see Northerners too abroad. Wake up guys this guys are suffering what we are suffering no one is enjoying weda quota or no quota system. Most of the Northerners I have met abroad are in things higher than my own pursuit don't just lie fallow thinking every northerner is a common Aboki, u will be wrong and surprised.

It is definitely finished for the youths of this country and Nigeria at large if untill now no one didn't degrade fraud or the fact that someone was defrauded only to be praising them. Thank God I got out fast. Goodluck to you all.

Oh really...I have lived in Canada for almost 6 years..i don't regret escaping that useless Nigeria. You have no idea of what you saying.

Canada is not heaven..not even close but it is far better than the hell called Nigeria 1000 times

I have lived and still living in Canada and will never call Nigeria Useless just because u think u are better than those that are in Nigeria. Mind you some are doing far better than you that u think Canada is your heaven. The name I call all of u as I encounter people like you all the time u all are nothing but OjuOriOlari. Glorified paupers.

etrange:
To start with, the city where I live is considered to be the most diverse city in the world. Virtually everyone is from somewhere. In such a place, people are addressed based on their content and not based on where they are from or their accent. The truth is, we all have read or heard many things about one another's country (both good and bad) and we have also met both good and terrible people from the same country. So we know better than to stereotype people. To be honest, most of my experience has been in the corporate environment but I strongly believe the city is way too diverse for Nigerians to be singled out nevertheless.

To answer the OP more directly, everyone knows I'm Nigerian at my place of work cause we normally spend a lot of time talking about our home countries and no one has ever reacted in an unruly manner towards me on learning I'm from Nigeria (even as I'm the only African in the organisation).

As diverse as Canada is and YET you are the only African in the Organization (some sort of bragging right I presume).....except if is not the Canada I know anymore. Wehdone sir.

The Truth from my experience of living in the US and now Canada is that majority dont even know where Nigeria is unless u educate them. First you will never see news on Africa on any of their local stations except if it is war or famine or some sort of devastation. So they have a skewed knowledge of Africa nonetheless they dont give a Bleep about where u come from.

The year 2016 was quite tough for me I was a fresh graduate looking for a job I kept going to and fro dropping my C.v here and there but all to no avail,I was broke at this point and decided to go to ikorodu to stay with my friends there ( Gee boys ) ..while I was there they took me to one hotel to watch football .the Hotel was located at itamaga and it's popularly called " BE HAPPY" ...for those familiar with the area .

As we were about to go in I saw a vacancy board looking for supervisor and bar man..I decided I would come the next day with my c.v and apply for the post of a supervisor,on getting there I was told they already got a supervisor but still in need of a bar man.i asked how much and they said 20k .I was desperate so I took the job .
I started working ,I was posted to the V.I.P section as the bar man there ,I was honest with my transactions and I quickly made friends with balling guys ( Gee Boys).. My salary was 20k but I was making at least 5k daily.. guys would come and drink ,and then ask me to take whatever I want and drink too,I would skip the drink and keep the money,some would tip me sometimes 2k,I was enjoying life and saving. Apart from staying up all night everyday and doing of the bar the next morning there wasn't Anything strenuous I was doing .


But the hotel was a LovePeddler house too.. ladies work there as runs girls .I found out that they pay rent everyday to the hotel owner.. the cheapest room there is 2k while the most expensive is 4k..(the 4k room comes with A.C.) There were at least up to 25 girls living there permanently ,other girls come and go .men would come around ,choose thier spec and go in with them..I learnt that some ladies have been there for more than 10 years ,they all have nicknames ,you will hear names like Angel , Naomi ,. Tiepor ( means it's plenty ) e.t.c..paying rent of at least 2k everyday.. short time with these ladies ranges from 1k to 5k depending on how Hawt she is while overnight is 10k - 20k

On a bad day these ladies get at least 10 short time and one overnight whuch means they make thousands of naira everyday . They spend thier money on designer clothes and latest wears competing With each other .

What I also Got to find out is that this prostitute have boyfriend's too.the one they allow to penetrate them without the use of condom,and the funny thing is that the man/guy is aware that they are runs girls ..they spend on thier boyfriend and he dare not cheat on them..have seen scenarios where guys marry some or have a baby with her..

Just 2 months after I got there I started getting visit from this particular prostitute ,she would come to my bar during the day when there are less customers and buy coca cola drink,she would drop 1k and asked me to keep change, the hotel has a restaurant too.,she would order food and asked them to bring it to me.. The gullible me thought I have found my destiny helper as I no longer spend on food not knowing that I was being pulled into the traps of the devil..my co workers then were telling me she likes me ,the truth is all the babes there actually liked me.cos i was naturally blessed with Good looks .

There were lots of pretty young girls in that Hotel ,girls from 19 years upward .this babe that kept buying me stuff wasn't the prettiest but she was my spec plus she was a big girl ,she uses the latest iPhone ,dresses classy and trendy ,if you met her on a normal day outside the hotel block u would have mistaken her for an otedola daughter ,with her dress and style

We Got close over time ,and one day I asked her " But babe pls tell me why do u choose to do runs ?..

According to her she claimed she grew up in a poor family and things were very tough back then,she tried learning a skill or trade but her boss were always wicked to her and she would end up leaving there , things got so tough that she couldnt afford pad during menstruation..she later had to run to a friend who was doing well at that time.. the friend promised her she would take her to Lagos to work. When they arrived Lagos she brought her to the hotel instead and the babe confessed that she's into runs ..and urge her to do it too.

"No one will know ,make small money and go and start a business In Benin". Her friend urged ..and that was how she started ,she said sometimes dirty mechanic or even tout boys will sleep with her and she had no choice but to allow them,she said sometimes some of them will use drug and almost tear her vagina..but that later she got used to it ..I felt bad for her ..... What do you think ?






Comment if u would like to hear the remaining story .....

MODIFIED
At the hotel u work every day and you only get a day off . During my off days she will beg me not to go home that I should rest there, she would then book a room for me to spend my break... (Pls understand the owner of the hotel is one difficult man and he must not find out you are dating any runs babe because he will believe you are giving her his money , so we kept it on the low but all her friends and my friends know.. )


I would be in that room and she will come and check on me time to time ,with food and drinks,she was really taking care of me.sh would buy me milk saying I need to regain my strength,this babe was not asking for sex ,she was actually taking her time with me ..

Then one day I had issues with my supervisor and I was suspended ( the Supervisor was jealous of our relationship And was always looking for fault in everything I do ).

I was suspended for 3 days and that means they will deduct a week money ..this babe lodged me in another hotel , gave me 10k saying I should use it to replace the money they will deduct,she then left her hotel to come spend the three days suspension with me..and sex happened..

Somehow i'mmediately after that I lost total interest in the job ,she was buying me everything from clothes to boxers to designer shoes ,she even bought me a gold chain (real Gold) ...I started feeling too big for the job that use to be my everything..


She told me that I should quit the job and look for a better one as the one I'm doing is below my standards, I believed her and quitted , then she told me she's quitting prostitution too.. she had like 300k in her and there is a house in Benin belonging to her .. that was how me and olosho relocated to Benin to start living as couples... I was having sex everyday....


I just wake up and have sex then sleep .. life was sweet not knowing I was killing my destiny... After bout 3 months we finished spending the money in her . and we were becoming broke ..that was when I realized I need a job again.. then one day during my job hunt I came back and she wasn't around, when she came back she brought food , provisions and stuff and even gave me 5k to get something for myself. I asked her where she got the money from and she confessed that she went to sleep with one rich man like that in Benin...

She begged me to please allow her to continue going to see the man that the man promised to fund her business plans which I agreed ....

After a while we started having issues I realized she did not like me as she use to she will say words like " You were not like this when you were in Lagos ". ... I did not understand what she meant until I saw myself in a mirror one day .. omo I was looking old and ugly all my beauty was gone .. I almost cried .. I i'mmediately left for Lagos the next week... And after years of fasting and praying and deliveenca I started looking better ...... To those that do say sex has no consequences I hope you learn. A Thing or two ....

What consequence has sex got to do with this. You followed ur ion and ur luv for sex and u got what you deserved. And Does my sex with my girlfriend has got ur kind of olosho-follower consequence. You got what u deserved.

chukel:
lies. Just break it down lets see your landing cost. Purchase price, trucking, shipping, clearing. Do the maths let's see.
Nb. Went thru your profile and comments. I like your reasoning a lot. We need your likes down here. All the best bro. However, i still need you to counter my view.

Like I said bro. Dont go there at all. The dealers are business men and they should make good profit i am not against them. But this is what I have done time and time again. They are lies because u have believed what u want to believe. Ain't arguing jaree. Best of luck

GAZZUZZ:
Car sales .


Since there is no restriction to who can import and sell a car, the market is very diverse.

The actual people who sell cars for a living are having a hard time competing with people who sell cars on the side.


A 2003 Toyota Corolla clean title will land Nigeria at about ₦1,940,000 naira , it will be put up for sale for about ₦2,100,000 and finally sold for about ₦2-2.03m in 1-2weeks

A profit of ₦less than ₦100,000 on an investment of roughly 2m and wait period of about 3months, with associated risk.


Now you have people who have relations outside the country who I would like to call recreational sellers, they do not sell cars for a living, they do not know how much these cars cost, all they do is wait for Obinna to send a car down, Obinna tells them the last price and they put it up for sale . After 2-3months of not seeing a buyer the price starts to drop out of frustration and finally a car that landed at say ₦1,000,000 would end up being sold for ₦900,000 with thank you


Cars are now very expensive, cat dealers are not finding it easy and have to source for cheap dollars to stay afloat, the dubious ones have to search for badly salvaged cheap vehicles to make more profit, they also have to cut more corners at the port to shortpay on custom duty to cover up for the shortfall in returns.

So this is the best time to really pay attention to vehicle info before paying for it.
https://nairaland.unblockandhide.com/carguide

Run a vin report, check the custom duty, and stop chasing after cheap cars, you are most likely buying trouble .


May God help us in Nigeria.

Dont even go there, I will land a 2003 Corolla at 1.4 sef....1.9 ko.....10milion ni. I am not an auto dealer but I have bought for friends from where I live. I no dey do deals ooo. But truth be told.

It is thesame in Canada. Be sure u have money in your before any transaction. If it fails. You will be penalized $45CAD. For me this move isnt strange. But to be candid na who no get money suppose they fear this move or how this move affect Iya Ebuka for market or Iya Ikimot. Even Bala wey dey sell groundnut will not bulge about this. But for the banked population we sure know the rules. If u agree to have a transaction done through the banks, then be sure u have money to pull it through.
#JustMyThoughts.

I wonder how people complain there is no money in Nigeria.

Nigerian Army that used to be one of the most respected Army in the whole of Africa has been reduced to an equal level with common "street civil defense" and also been a laughing stock

Take it or leave it. Regardless of the misbehaviour of one or two. The Nigerian military remains the finest in Africa. Do ur research right and u will know that the Nigerian military is no laughing stock in Africa.
