I am married, though my wife knows I've always wanted biracial kids and prays I don't get Visa to any EU, or American State...I go do quickie I no go lie But then, I tried without success to get a white girl. Though I've had a few in Abuja, but those happened when I was not fully matured, so I didn't use my time well. 2 Likes |

Snowx: My brother. That was how they discouraged my friend's driver from travelling to Qatar. Did you know that because of Nairaland I even thought Qatar was that bad. The guy eventually left for Qatar about 3 months ago and according to him, that's the best decision he's ever made in recent years. About 9 days ago, his girlfriend travelled to Qatar also. And the same person hosted 2 of my friends on their way to China by this time last week. Make we dey talk only wetin we know, that's my point. I know an elderly man who has been in Kuwait since the early 2000's, he took his wife about 14 years ago to come and be with him there in Kuwait and they're doing fine. The problem about 5 years ago was that he brought his son over but the boy decided to join the Ganja Gangs, and he was deported only just after 3 weeks. Money dey Kuwait, just get the right papers or information. 2 Likes |

@fullclub your advice is duly noted. The mods here and some others are talking like it's easy to raise N30M in this economy. They come at people with their holier than thou attitude, now wonder NL is becoming shithole, just like Nigeria. Clearly your advice is for those who may intend to sell their/family properties/possessions in order to embark on this journey, and painting the perfect scenerio for them here is the best way to go. It is well. All the best, but in all you do, please don't come back. 2 Likes |

dcolumbus001: I would suggest you leave earlier, because I was lucky on the day. Traffic, task force, bad road, all these things could make you day slow. If you're the chilling type, there is a corner by the station where you could easily chill and have some of your favs while waiting for the train. |

dcolumbus001: I left my home at about 10am and I got to Itakpe at about 2:15pm. Luckily, on the said day the train came in over 2 hours late. Departure time was supposed to be 2pm. Cost of the trip is 5k any stop. Trip usually last about 5 hours from Itakpe to Warri. |

Travel / Re: Share Your Train Ride Experience In Nigeria by colbycell: 2:48pm On Sep 27, 2023 |
I completed a to and fro Abuja (Itakpe) - Abraka over the weekend. It's a N5,000 round trip to whatever destination. Funny enough, some passengers were dropped off at Ajaokuta, Agbor and some other closer stations and they still paid 5k. Sadly, the trip arrived over 2 hours late as departure time was supposed to be 2pm from Itakpe to Warri. We eventually left at exactly 4:26pm for what would end becoming one of my most remarkable travels. I was in the same cabin/coach with Mrs. Veronica Akpofure, (Neo Akpofure's) mother and together we gave the other passengers what looked like "NIGHT OF A THOUSAND LAUGHS." It was a 5 hour trip to Abraka because I was heading to OZ, there was no need to travel with the train to Ujevwu. On our return leg, we left Abraka at exactly 9:05am and by 1pm we were already at the Ajaokuta Station. We got to Itakpe just before 1:30pm or there about. Overall, the trip was fun, although the staff you could call very bad eggs. They can sell seat numbers to 6 different persons and inside the ride you'll get caught up in unnecessary arguments that shouldn't have been in the first place. From my observation, an average staff would earn over 30 - 70k per trip from either of their primary station (I mean Ujevwu & Itakpe respectively). While the security personnels on board are friendly, they are a part of this decay because you see them selling seats illegally. The toilets are mostly unkempt, and there are not enough vendors aboard the train. The worse of all is the oversabi staff that would always tell you not to film the tracks or even the station P.S. Make sure you go with some kind of Identity Card...you go need am. 1 Like

They said I assaulted an Immigration Officer, I did after he had punched me and throw my Passport further away. I don't take shit from anybody. I will never visit that dry country again. |

Family / Re: The Guilt Of Locking My Husband Up For Two Days by colbycell: 7:36pm On Aug 22, 2023 |
Persephone1: You have spoken well, and like an elder. You see, in the last 2 years, August precisely my life, business and all is been upsidedown. I live in Abuja, my home was demolished, and also this June my work station was demolished. So you can understand that the frustrations in my life are astronomical. No marriage is perfect, especially when the primary source of financial flow drops or stops permanently. I have a wife, and I have 2 kids with my wife and 2 other beautiful daughters outside my marriage. Yes! I am putting this out so that the OP knows that she's overdone this. Any day I go to my new office space I spend roughly N3,500 and I may end up not getting any return for that day. Before now, every other month I make roughly 350k or more. Because of this drop in funds, I get some silly behaviors from the wife, it is only normal for women to want to overdo things especially when they have friends, and maybe their husbands are doing fairly well. There are issues here and there, but I try to never let it result into deep quarrels or me hitting my wife. May God never allow me do this. You husband is totally wrong for hitting you, and there are no justification for even damaging your things. But let me tell you ooh! Some of these people that are advising you don't mean well. Anybody wen arrest me na there our friendship end, this is why I have never thought about arresting anybody. If it turns out that my wife would be the one to arrest me Hmmm! That Marriage is Over and I mean it. Forgive and avoid, simple. Where una elders or neighbors dey wen you go bring police? Na power play be that na! Like you planned it out. But then you know your husband, try to get family and friends to beg him, and I pray he forgives. Money and Job will come...na small time remain. 5 Likes |

FellaG: Well, you are right and wrong. Akwa-Ibom is not a hub for business activity unless you're into building materials. Akwa-Ibomists don't like to eat outside, majority are perfectionist when it comes to cooking. So instead of to eat outside, they would rather cook their food at home by themselves. An average Akwa-Ibom man never thinks having fun is cool, they barely spend money seeing new places, this is why you had that experience at the Tropicana - the same thing that happened to Tinapa in Calabar. Our people hate fun, and when there are no visitors to the Tropicana funds for maintenance becomes a problem. Good thing is that you said you are from Akwa-Ibom, let's start now and give our people something new. In Real Estate there is a secret terminology we use - "Infrastructure before Structure." Akwa-Ibom is opening up, and with time our basic naivety would become something of the past, I just hope you can be a part of the new change that will be coming in. |
