I've watched with amazement and bewilderment how the social media nairaland inclusive, have been filled with the stories of leaving Nigeria to other countries with the impression that, once they get there their problems are over. I think this big fat lie will hunt, and may destroy our future generations if nothing is done about it.

1. They believe once you leave the shores of this country, you have nothing to worry about again bcs automatic success is now guaranteed. If this is true, what happens to many Nigerians that are now stranded after so many years abroad ? Is the system over there a contributory factor as well

2. Government is bad !
Yes Nigerian government is very bad, if not the worst in the whole world. But then, who is the government, isn't it you and I ? Are we forgetting that a government is a product of the society and the reflection of its people ?
If the government is bad, then we're bad as a people !

This very generation of Nigerian youths is worse than the current leaders of the pass/outgoing generation they're blaming.

At least, our current leaders did not practice Yahoo Yahoo, Yahoo plus, they did not steal women pants for money ritual, they didn't engage in kidnapping for quick money etc in their time. But this generation does and even far worst things. I'm not in anyway exhonorating them bcs they have really messed up this country. But this generation is now worst than them.

Yes our pass and current leaders steal our collective wealth ? They did/do so bcs we allow them to, based on ethic, tribal and religious sentiments. In fact continuous stealing is only possible in the society of thieves and robbers. If all we could produce as leaders are thieves and looters, then that's who we all are as a people.

These same people that are preaching "JAPA" now, will never obey a simple traffic rule while in Nigeria, but they're there now throw every kind of stone against their own country.
Ask them what's their own contribution back home towards nation building.

Did they ever obey simple traffic rule?

What about paying their taxes, what was their contribution to social development and services etc ?

These things and more they're willingly do over there bcs they know that the
[b]the sicitzens of those countries make law and systems to work not even the governments, and they cannot hid under a finger. Remove the law and oder over there, and see them showing their true colours.

Lastly, I think there are some external forces behind this sudden propaganda of japa. I know Nigeria is at it worst state since it started as a nation, but if we all run away, who will rescue and build it, where would we run back to when the jungle is matured outside ?

Nations are built by their citizens.

And for those of you outside Nigeria whose job now is to mock and denigrate the country, remember your people are still leaving here.

Some are even going as far as mocking God, the two major religions, saying all manner of things against the church, mosque etc. For your information, Nigerians have always been religious, it's in our DNA. There's a time Nigeria was working, our currency was better than the British pounds. My mother's senior brothers who schooled in the UK came back to Nigeria to work, and that didn't make people less religious.

Maybe you forgot, I will remind some of you that, some of your parents wouldn't have been educated but for the help the church and missionary Schools .

But the painful aspect is that majority of the people being affected will deliberately vote in misfits because he/she is of same tribe and religion. How can misfits come up with a positive policy? Wrong policies have a direct impact on the condition of living in any society. Just imagine handing power to local miscreants or thugs in your area and one expect things to change for the better? Countries that are performing well, are they not same humans as we have in Africa? It seems one has to slow down in letting people know the consequences for voting misfits, because no matter what one say a lot of people are already consumed by hatred and bigotry. They can't think straight again. You all will be surprised by 2023 election able bodied men and women will dress up and stand under the sun to cast their votes for misfits.

This was a topic of heated debate in our gathering today,
*Who would you forgive between a friend who denied you and one who betrayed you ?*

*And is there any difference between the two? I mean, denial and betrayal?*

Judas betrayed Jesus, Peter denied Jesus... If Jesus was not killed, who do you think he'd mostly had forgiven...?

We all know men are usually attracted to attractive females, that can not be disputed. Also not so easily disputable is the fact that most women are not good at taking up situations of much pressure, hence most women when faced with economic, social and general survival problems easily take to prostitution, even though there can never be any legitimate justification for such heinous Sins. In view of the dire and hard economic situation in the country, I really think guys shd try and lend a helping hand to some of the good moral ladies who may have resorted to runs after interviewing them and finding them not really prostitute materials, i e, those who are caught up by circumstances beyond their control.

No mind am. Forex and bet is the same thing. They both require analysis and they both have risk to reward. I see no difference. Both of them can make you lose everything if there is no risk management. In summary, there is nothing wrong with betting just treat is like a business and ensure you use proper risk management simple. Betting has made many rich.

BATified2023:

A guy won 6million some months to his wedding,he spent 2.5m,and the rest for biz..

But is Forex also risky,because I don't really know much about it

Holluwatarhyor:
Someone told me owning a bet company is a sin,but most bet companies has been an employer of labour,especially here in Nigeria that there's hardly an employment opportunity.

If you go to bet9ja main shops,(not an agent's shop),you will see matured men and women,all graduates,working there.And they are been paid well,even with allowance,free hospital bills and other incentives.

And those playing,I've seen people that their life has changed for good,only the greedy ones lose a lot of money,because 'bet responsibly' is bodly written in their various shops.


So,is betting a sin,especially for those who are not employed and sees an opportunity to work in a bet company?

Whatif the man married late and wants to meet up before age caught up with him?

Islandlady:
I have always wanted to write on this particular article about the lack of enough gap or spacing of children by most Nigerian parents!

Few months back I was driving along that Abuja-suleja road and decided to stop by to buy some roasted plantain (boli) from a woman by the roadside! But I couldn't help notice her two baby boys crying profusely, she was holding onto one while the other was on the floor, initially I thought they were twins but after looking well, I noticed that the boy on the floor was a bit older! So I offered to help her console the older child because she was obviously frustrated and so that she can be faster with my plantain so I can hit the road back!

I carried the boy to console him and I was surprised by the way the boy clinged to me and immediately stopped crying, he was still a baby who needs his mother's attention and cuddling but all was cut short becos he now has a baby brother! I asked the women for their ages and she said the older was 2years old and his brother was 1year old! I was not really suprised but angry at the poor spacing between children by most of our Nigerian parents!

I mean if she has given them atleast a 3 to 4years age gap, the older brother will be old enough to console and play with his younger brother, while she will be able do her work without getting fraustrated and depriving the older baby of the care, attention and also stopping his breastfeeding at that early stage! This lack of child spacing harbits is very common among our parents!

I just want to urge our upcoming parents, new couples and singles hoping to get married someday and give birth to please practice a good child spacing of atleast 2-4years age gap, it has a lot of benefits and also give you time to take care of the child properly and also allowing the mothers body rest and become stronger in preparation for another child
Thanks for reading!
