Diasporan: As a party crawler back in Abuja i miss those shiit as mad.Especially the 5 days a week clubbing.In my location you have to work and work and no time for that.Even when you are free and you call your pals that you guys should hang out they will also be working.No communal life at all.No wonder oyinbo people dey die of loneliness with their dogs for inside their house.I also miss toasting girls on the road and various places.Here you try it they might accuse you for sexual harassment.For the food aspect am not missing anything.I still cook my Naija food scatter.In general Naija freedom nor get part 2.

Can't add more to this. You are the shiznit! Nigeria is the land of freedom.

How I wish the country can get her acts together.

odumchi: I miss the calm, soothing aura of the countryside; the enticing smell of the hawkers' roasted corn; the sweet, honey-like aroma of fresh grass and morning dew; and the all-natural, fresh evening breeze which would fuel or nightly chats.

I remember the days when my friends and I would innocently shake fruit trees in the hopes of a delicious treat. More vividly, I remember how we would spend the hot afternoons playing and aimlessly roaming about, and the powerless evenings in the company of wise elders, as we listened to tales of the heroes of old.

Chai. Ndaa kwan? Where has all the time gone?
You must live in London or Dubai if you "miss the calm, soothing aura of the [nigeria] countryside". Me I go there to gawk at the human sea that is Obalende or Ojuelegba or Onitsha head bridge.
