I still sacked one idiot working for me cos he was ing Ipob nonsense.
Asked him to get out and go Kanu in the East. Got another person from Edo to replace him.

If you think SW of today is same as SW of 5 years ago, you are mistaken. You guys will see.

You could sack him because he s IPOB. KANU.

Ipob is real. KANU is real. Fighting for freedom.

You have set the temperate. Any Yoruba that s the Drug czar and certificate forger in our employment will be shown the Exit door. We won't tolerate them any longer.

You think it's only your tribe that hates?

Mtchweee 😔

OP you child go to Lagos, don't mind naysayers. It's the land of most opportunities as long as you're teachable. Put your body and soul into learning and start earning afterwards. I know am Igbo guy, Ugo, that came from the east. Baba learn sales of Keke spare parts, he's damn rich now, build wealth from it, taught his brothers his trade and they're comfortable too, just that he won't teach Yorubas around his line of trade. But that's okay, at least, he's not calling us names.

So, in a nutshell, come to Lagos, don't be lazy, don't hate us Yoruba or call us names, the land shall favor all of us.

A piece of advise, once you land, trash that your certificate, roll up your sleeves and plead with your uncle to take you to any main market so he can introduce you to a few people. Be ready to hustle like an illiterate undergraduate else na depression go kpai u for ur bros house.

OP, take this advice.....

OmoEko4Real:
Pls NO.

We already have too many people in Lagos. We are working on a plan to drive them back to wherever they came from.

Over population is not development.
Thanks

Why don't you go back to your state of origin?

Appletek:


Oh, so you know Lagos is progress and anyone who wants you out of Lagos is your enemy. You will see shege.

Don't worry. By the time it starts, they won't tell you before you disappear from Lagos

Same noise making. Is Lagos meant for Yorubas only?
It's only the illiterates that thinks The way you are thinking..

Lagos is the commercial business hub of Nigeria. So it attracts various shades of businessmen to the state. Not like drunkards like you who revels on "owner of the Land"syndrome.

Bedsides, Lagos is within Nigerian geographical space. So, anybody can go there and live.

Try your nonsense and you will see Shege!

Mtchweee 😔

Myrrhis:


If we check now, you might not be an indigene of Lagos state.

I'm an indigene of Lagos State. I'm a true descendant of Kosoko.

Cj4charles:
The way some people talk about this Lagos as if they cannot make it anywhere else... as long as you are determined, you can make it anywhere... I send someone in Lagos money daily for transportation and upkeep from the same East you feel you can't make it from

You can make it anywhere but when you count the highest number if millionaires, billionaires and trillinaires in naira lagos has q huge chunk. That's the reason people go there because it has the biggest economy in Nigeria

This same Lagos? Lies!!!

We come to Lagos to take your money, then travel to the SE at the end of the year to go splurge and enjoy.
The atmosphere in the SE alone will have you looking fresher in no time.
All people there are beautiful looking, with clear complexion.
Not dusty like Lagos.

I've been to all the Eastern States apart from Ebonyi.

The public bus stop in Ikeja, lagos is better than all airports in the entire South East.

cars used by policemen in lagos to chase pickpockets and gala hawkers are good enough to seduce the wife of a local government chairman in the East.

In lagos, we use brand new Actross Mercedes-Benz trucks to carry waste. They use old tricycles as ambulances in the East. Our garbage in lagos State are more valuable than human lives in the East.

Tell me why Igbos won't run out of igboland every January as if there's war going on there.

idahme:



Why don't you go back to your state of origin?

Go back to Lagos? I only live in Lagos, where my forefathers lived, died, and were buried.

This is one very big mistake being made by many people!


They erroneously believe that gold is picked up like cherries on the streets of Lagos!


This same mentality is what is driving the japa syndrome.


They believe life is greener on the other side until they discover belatedly that they were living in a fool's paradise.



Lagos is a land full of opportunities but not as it is being depicted.


On getting to Ojodu-Berger/ Ojota, reality begins to sink in.


A trial will conceive you, sorry, convince you!



The taste of the pudding is in the eating!



Here's wishing doubters the best of luck!



Experience remains the best teacher!

Good morning people. I noticed that majority of s on this site live in Lagos.

Most of my childhood friends have traveled to Lagos.

That aside, I want to relocate to Lagos. I have an uncle that used to stay in orile (2018).

I can camp in his house for the main time.

If I come to Lagos, can I get a job that can pay me like 100k and above every month. I have my waec and neco. I just turned 25.

I feel if I change environment, things will begin to go well for me.. and I heard there are lots of jobs in Lagos.

Here in the east, no work or company. Only Keke bus business that's thriving

Please can I make it in Lagos? I need suggestions. This is a life changing decision please

Here in the east, no work or company. Only Keke bus business that's thriving but very soon you will be saying Lagos is dirty Lagos belong to no one after they have made you.That is how you people are ungrateful human being.

Come to Lagos and learn skills. All you need is to spare two years to learn skill,then you are good to go. Forget your Waec or Neco for now.

My brother, let me tell you something straight - about moving to Lagos to make it, because I've been exactly where you are right now, full of that same fire and belief that Lagos equals success, but let me give you the raw truth from my own 5-year war with that city. I landed in Ojodu Berger in 2015 with big dreams but left in 2020 with nothing but regret after employers frustrated me with unpaid salaries, transport broke me with endless traffic and high costs, and even family disappointed me when that uncle who promised help charged me 80k for a closet under his staircase. The day I ran away to Delta State was when my life finally changed - my Igbo friend he’s name is mark moved to Asaba's Ogbogonogo Market to learn how to sell foodstuffs and as we speak has 3 boys he brought from the village to teach them the trade like he learnt it with a second shop while I found peace, cheaper living, and real opportunities that eventually brought me to America today. So before you go, ask yourself hard questions: do you have a solid plan beyond just "hustling", a real place to stay knowing landlords demand 2 years rent upfront, let me don’t scare you, your uncle might show you shege( I might be wrong but plan for the eventuality, cause anything can happen), can you handle extreme mental, financial and spiritual pressure? If not, explore options in the East first - learn a trade in Aba's markets like my friend mark did( that is if you have someone there to accommodate till you finish learning the trade, pick up skills in Onitsha/Asaba, or network in Port Harcourt's oil sector because Lagos is a brutal gamble where only 1 in 10 make it without turning to yahoo, thuggery or becoming some big man's errand boy. Think well my brother, Lagos doesn't give second chances and I'm telling you this not to scare you but because I don't want you learning the hard way like I did - the city works for some but consumes most, so be wise and know that sometimes success is closer to home than you think.

Note: This isn’t to hate on Lagos o! The city works for some people… but not for most. Be wise!

Not all Igbo the same. Most of those bad ones come from Anambra

Some of you lack EQ. With the amount of tribalism on this platform, you now deem it fit to post this kind of discussion here.

Anyways, hope you have gotten what you are looking for?

Hope he listens. Make e learn barbing and fashion design before if e must leave

iamjack0812:
Person sey him wan come Lagos una dey discourage am.
OP come Lagos asap and stop listening to people talking against your decision.
Both the sweet and bitter experience na only you go still enjoy am no be so?
Just don't come here later and start begging for cash to survive coz at 25 years old you can face your consequences be it sweet or bitter.
But pls try and learn a skill don't and never be tempted to a salary work o coz to stop am dey extremely hard o is good you start suffering for that skill immediately you land than ing any salary work and be paid by 50k-70k monthly that will kill your time,freedom and peace of mind well if you wake up by 4am to rush to work then you will understand what am saying.
Call that your uncle and beg him to put you for work(training) and suffer it like your life depends on it and be sure before coming down or if you can learn it at your end then fine and good am telling you the bitter truth of life

Is barbing enough skill to learn sir?
