AY is from northern part of nigeria.....🇳🇬😂

All these children that UK government will not let you discipline. Back then I remember a class mate being brought to Nigeria and “abandoned”. He spent about two years with his uncle, during that period the reforming😉😉 he received.
When he returned to the UK he was a completely changed being.

I don't think discipline has anything to do with beating/flogging a child, we have that in Nigeria yet the rate of cultism particularly in low income neighborhoods is staggering. Can you say teenages are better behaved in Nigeria compared to the UK due to the training they recieved?

Nigerians need to unlearn the habit that beating a child equals disciplining the child.

Hello everyone!!
Please for those who have dome their Police clearance for Nigeria from UK, how did you go about the fingerprinting?

Did you apply to the UK police fingerprint unit?

I got a new job and the company is asking for my prints as they want to do their own background checks. They have requested a PCC too from Nigeria. Mehn the cost of an appointment is almost £200 . Do you think I should ask them to pay for it instead?

Abeg help me.

What the government fail to realise is that training black children is not the same way you train White or Asian kids. Black children need some form of iron hard to mould and shape them to be a better members of society.

Back when I was in secondary school (all boarders) we always had student who were Nigerians born in US and UK coming for their secondary school education I never saw the importance until years later.

Hi everyone, I just need someone to allay my fears and worries as I've been refreshing my mail every seconds.

We are currently in the process of buying an apartment. Our deposit is in a LISA account and the source is savings from salary and ajo/esusu/thrift. Coincidentally, the day we made reservation was when i came across a post on facebook group that some solicitors reject savings from thrift due to AML (and I think it's simply because some of the solicitors are rigid or simply do not understand the concept) while some are flexible about the whole thing. I've been on panic mode and really worried. Our solicitors have asked for proof of funds which I've supplied, I also explained all required inflows and attached the ajo agreement, hoping that would suffice, but haven't heard anything back from them (though I sent it 24 hours ago smiley).

Just wanted to ask if anyone used savings from Ajo for house purchase (as I'm guessing it should be a common thing with Nigerians here). How did you go about it? and did you encounter any issues?

Thanks in advance.

Thank you for your input. I am very aware of possap. Maybe you need to read my question to fully understand what I am asking about.

A new employer wants to run the checks themselves and need my fingerprints.

Any data analyst here with actual years of experience from Nigeria? I have a quick question

heroshark:

Nigerians need to unlearn the habit that beating a child equals disciplining the child.

Proverbs 13 24 Whoever spares the rod hates their children, but the one who loves their children is careful to discipline them.

Do you have a data of any children who grow up in foster care as a better person? If you do have please convince me. I can say, teenagers in Nigeria are better behaved than UK

I don't understand what you mean by carehome and how it's relevant to this topic? My argument is that flogging and beating a child is not the definition of disciplining. There is a whole lot to parenting and training a child than just beating, and there are more productive way to discipline a child.

Teenagers don't join gang because their parents didn't discipline them. One major factor that influence this is the socio-economic background, even neighborhood with high gang related crimes are low-income neighborhood, the same is also true in Nigeria. If you go to urban slums in Nigeria or any poor neighborhood, the rate of teenage crime is unprecedented both children of pastors that grew up under constant beating/flogging they will simply outgrow the beating and show you shege.

I don't have the data about how unruly teenagers in UK are, but I have seen 1st hand how teenagers in Nigeria can be unquestionably corrupt and evil. You might not have witnessed it if you live or grow in middle-income neighborhood.

I so much would've love to use myself as an example, but I still be nobody. one day when I'm finally successful and accomplish, I will write a book about the darkness I lived through. How I grew up habouring a princely inner darkness. Bought my 1st gun (a Russian mini Beretta 2.5mm) at the age of 16, almost got convicted by age 24 despite growing up in a very religious home under strict upbringing.

"princely inner darkness".... Omo!
I'm rooting for you to write that book, we need to know what made you that way and what made you change. Maybe it will help others out there.

I believe @Akorkor meant foster care. The public one for kids and teens. Not the foster parent (family one)

To be honest, I still think there is a big difference and to some extent a spoilt teen in Nigeria is still a bit better.

I also spent a reasonable amount of my childhood in the ghetto in Lagos too, and can tell you some major difference. So you know I have good knowledge of what I am saying, let me give you quick run thru of my self. Started life as butty, lost my Dad/everything, moved to the ghetto, spent 13yrs there before we made wealth again and moved out back to our butty life.

In the 90’s when teens were really mad, cultist then engaging in school (secondary) fight aimed to hurt (injure) themself and not kill. When they fight school fight, they stab with aim to hurt, use cutlass to give deep cuts and marks on heads, the death rate from this violence from teens then was very very low. Injury and hospital, yes, very high after every Friday fight. The era of jazz (chook and bounce and all the knack and chop grass) didn’t have much negative effect other than you lose your mind and your friends beg for the person to release you. Even the gun fights were aimed at shooting one on the foot and legs. The gun wasn’t aimed high to get to the head or chest. The worst activities then wasn’t aimed at murder, tho some led to death, but you can tell it was for superiority (I pass you). The only set that engage on those bad act with murder as the aim were graduated secondary school kids (Univeristy men) and that’s outside our view at the minute.

You can’t say the same for teens here. And I say this because when someone stabs you with a knife multiple times, you know the aim is different and wicked. Not trying to justify bad acts, just want you to know that even the worst kid has a fear in him/her back home. The fear might not be for everyone, but there is someone he/she is scared of or respects to the point they can stop their bad act for that person. We can argue the same for here.

Also when people talk about cautioning kids in Nigeria, everyone think it’s about flogging the child. It’s not always about beating. There are some parents that use looks to correct their kids. In the early 90’s parents use to wake you up at the middle of the night to talk to you with the believe that it works for kids. Some parents don’t even touch their kids. They just make them do some punishments like pick pin, more house chores (fetch more water, or it’s likes).

The reason why a lot of saner teens can be said to be in Nigeria as compared to the UK could be the fact that there is respect (arguably fear by some people) towards elders in Nigeria and not just your parents. In the 90’s a child can be corrected by any elder and the parents will be fine because the aim is to guide the child in the right direction. You can’t say same here, countless of times when teens do crazy things at the parks or stations and when an elder (in some cases old) correct them, they shout at and even hurt the elder. In Nigeria, if you insult your mum, the uncle living next to your house “will catch you and beat you”.

We can go on. When people talk about correction, it’s not just flogging, it’s punishments. It’s not always FEAR, it’s respect. Imagine a little girl not even up to 10 shouting at her mum like she can take care of herself if given the opportunity. Then the parent is scared to caution her cos she will be reported and arrested.
