Obsession with coming to the US? Well Latinos can make more money in the US vs in their country, plus there are more jobs here in the US. Unemployment rate is much higher in Latin countries.

They go to Europe too, anywhere with a better job opportunities.

You don't have to only practice with Nigerians. You can make friends online. You can also check out apps like Hello Talk, Speaky to chat and have voice chats with other language learners.


Naso Bro. U don travel na. I bin dey plan study for Argentina cause I hear say their education dey free for everyone. But milei come enter and Bleep up

One thing that surprised me though about the Latinos is their obsession with US. I still can't put my finger on that yet. Almost like a post colonial attraction except the fact that they were not colonized by the US

I replied your comment in Spanish, but the Nairaland website removed it and banned me for like 24hrs or more. So I will only write in English o.

That's cool. Which app did you use and do you have people to practice with? Any plans to travel to a Spanish speaking country?

Bro no be small. Happened to me on my last account. Seems nairaland can tolerate hatred and calls for ethnic genocide but can't tolerate another language being spoken grin.
Used busuu, then films helped a lot. I didn't practice with anyone though cause I think Nigerians aren't really that interested in learning a second language for fun . They prefer it for the motives of japa.
Learning Spanish introduced me a lot to a world I never knew of. Colombia looks very beautiful and I'd say the same thing about Chile, Argentina, Uruguay and Costa Rica.

Then you need to take advantage of your language skills and start a YouTube channel only in Spanish.

Give the channel a good Spanish name so that Spanish speakers can find you when they search.

Examples are:
Tu amigo de Africa
Esto es Africa
Español en africa

Also have you seen my video in Uruguay where I interviewed that white babalawo guy? If you speak Yoruba, he said that you can make a lot of money in South America teaching Yoruba to those interested in the Yoruba religion.

Here's the link to that video:

People made it up. Just like you have made up stories today. Have you heard of the Nigeria vs India football game? Who made that up?

I suspect say you've not read much of the Bible self.

Then came the clash of cultures that had spent centuries literally ignorant about one another's existence.
Still, anyone who is familiar with the history of Lagos knows that there is really nothing new about what is happening today. The battle over Lagos is as old as Lagos itself. At various times, the struggle was between the indigenous people and slave returnees, or between Lagos indigenes and Yorubas from other cities. It was in the 1920s and 1930s when Igbos started settling in Lagos and growing in numbers that the battle graduated from intra-ethnic to inter-ethnic contestations. In fact, in the late 1940s, a sustained media exchange between Yoruba and Igbo intellectuals almost ended in a bloodbath, with the protagonists and antagonists stockpiling machetes to take things further.
Politics / Re: Understanding The Ethic Tensions In Lagos by Davidf555: 2:36pm On Aug 08
Much of the history of Lagos is that of its economy, in the context of political, social and cultural change. Economic transformation is thus one of the most important forces to have had an impact on the city, its society, its landscape as well as its “look”, which forms an essential par of the quest for the city's soul. The expansion of the city's political economy has led to growing wealth, which in turn has brought a range of new aspirations for modernity that has followed in the wake of colonization.
Politics / Re: Understanding The Ethic Tensions In Lagos by Davidf555: 2:33pm On Aug 08
Now back to Lagos, the colony of Nigeria with the capital being Lagos brought a lot of people from the other parts of the country to Lagos for economic opportunities and for an higher standard of living.

Lagos became a population of 2 million by the 1920s

After Lagos was made the capital in 1914, a classification of Nigerian cities was proposed in 1921. Lagos was the only city belonging to the ‘Class A township’, which combined a residential area reserved for Europeans (Ikoyi) and a commercial area in which Europeans lived, worked, traded and interacted with Africans Lagos Island

The Hausas due to their nature of being traders and farmers has a long history of contact with the yorubas. They were the ones that brought Islam to the south west region, and also introduced the Arabic script of writing Yoruba language which was the first alphabet of the Yoruba language

Politics / Re: Understanding The Ethic Tensions In Lagos by Davidf555: 2:25pm On Aug 08
Now what's interesting to note is that due to the south west (home to majority Yoruba ethic group) wasn't that isolated isolated before colonization.
There were lots of recorded contacts with the Benis, Nupes, and most importantly the Hausas
Politics / Re: Understanding The Ethic Tensions In Lagos by Davidf555: 2:22pm On Aug 08
The colony of Southern Nigeria which then gave rise to the colony of Nigeria with the capital as Lagos due to it being geographically a port city and closer to the other colonies brought together the two ethnicities that had spent centuries with the complete ignorance of the others existence
Politics / Re: Understanding The Ethic Tensions In Lagos by Davidf555: 2:19pm On Aug 08
About 500km away lived an ethnic group that was isolated geographically from the west of the country by the Onitsha river,
They lived with the first ever recorded democracy in West Africa. They were also brutally forced to become a colony of Southern Nigeria

It's 1851, Lagos has just been bombarded by the British and annexed to a colony on 5th of march 1862 and it's history changed forever.

Until then Lagos was inhabited by the awori tribes from the Yoruba ethnicity
They've lived a pretty quiet life up till then that consisted mainly of fishing and cultural activities

Starboytwo:
Y'all take chill pill abeg. What's life without some adventures...

At OP, maybe that shit ain't dope enough.
Ice is not my thing. But I've done a couple.

Gets you sweaty and charged up.
You can wash all the cloths in your house and clean and still looking for more work to do.

But you will not sleep for 2 days.
Your appetite will be crap.

I don't rate the drug.
Could be my body. It's so underwhelming that it's annoying and I feel like I just wasted money on something I could have used for loud or edibles

FUTURE4202:
I will advise you stop it.
I had an experience with someone last week, he came and was looking very fine after a(some minutes) he just stood up and said he done shoot make we dey go house(cause we stay in same compound) we was like ok let's go, cause we where 3 together actually. Before we got house this guy has started behaving strange, he could no longer walk and now needs our help. Meanwhile he told us he had smoke ice and took some swinol before coming, and he normally smoke ice not his first time, had same experience but still continue. This guy was totally useless to the core that day and was even kind of behaving like an inbencide while we were going home. To cut long story short, we got home laid him in his bed, lock his door and left him.
This guy slept from that morning till the next day. He was totally useless and could not even hustle again that night.

So my question is what is the need of taking the drugs when you cannot even hustle with it?

I do smoke(weed) and was once a strong alcoholic, but have reduced on that. Now my plans are to stop smoking and alcohol completely at least before july by God grace, and if i want to get high i prefer and will just go we CSC(codeine) or swinol. No more weed(cause of my lungs) and alcohol( cause it's a killer). As for ice and kolos it's a no no for me and will always be so.
Yeah makes sense. My cousin was telling me it's probably crap that was sold to me except I took it with 3 people one of them was a soldier and i saw them sweating but didn't really feel anything

Keep consuming more, your sweating is underway.
You are the boss at it.
Most likely would stick to weed and alcohol

Crime / My First Experience With Meth Or Ice by Davidf555: 4:49am On Jun 25
So I took it yesterday, the guy I took it with said I'd soon be sweating but I didn't. Even wore a coat cause it rained a lot yesterday. I also took weed like az and loud and that's what probably got me high but I just felt generally tired(most likely the weed)and a bit more dreamy.
Fast forward to night I've been thinking I wouldn't be able to sleep but I slept well, even dreamt
So now I'm wondering is there something that was supposed to happen or it's my body or the meth that's bad(which I highly doubt cause the people who took it with me were sweating).
It's kinda underwhelming
