Foreign Based Nigerian, What Do You Miss About Naija by Holocene(m): 2:29pm On Apr 27, 2018 |
The quest to leave Nigeria is so strong attimes that we feel we might never miss anything from the motherland. However after sometime we quietly miss some stuffs which can only be seen back home. I miss: Suya Pumpkin leaf soup Over-speeding on the highway without thinking of speed cops lurking to give you a ticket Legend Extra stout� I dont however miss the way naija girls ask for transport fare each time they visit...lol 2 Likes 1 Share |

lestat:There must be something you miss when you travel, you're probably just too angry to admit it... Our guy that finally traveled to Turkey after so many failed attempts told boys he was coming home to visit after less than a year of staying... Boys be like "come naija come do wetin...aboy you better stay there first" baba had no choice but to stay put...boys have spoken |

Mariangeles: What I miss is life out there, my condo, my car, my friends , my favorite bar, comicon, fast internet , clean environment, civilized people, a society that works, excellent health care. A Congress man that actually respects people in his ward, a government that realizes how powerful the people are. Good food, I mean really good food. A powerful currency I could go on and on. Anyone who lives and travels regularly can't ever say there's anything they miss here beyond the negatives, cutting taxes, avodimimg paying for services, police that you can control with money etc these are not things a.normal well adjusted adult should miss So once again there's nothing to be missed about Nigeria 13 Likes 4 Shares |

Holocene: You're right. Whenever I travel to 9ja, the first thing I usually do after passing through security at Lagos airport is to buy one meatpie and a chilled bottle of Maltina at any of the shops at the arrival area. After welcoming myself to 9ja through the meatpie and Maltina ritual, I'll step outside into the scorching heat, and inhale a lungful of the Lasgidi air before heading home. There's something bizarrely refreshing to me about the air in Lasgidi. The satisfaction I derive from my two rituals is priceless. 3 Likes |
