I am just surprised when you say that you were in Ghana and they taught you 'French' when Ghana is not a french speaking country . Of all the different main languages in Ghana it was french that you learnt lol I find this hard to believe

vague:
lol i know the difference between curly hair and kinky hair when its straightened and thats proper african kinky hair on your profile pic. Who are you trying to fool?

I thought the same thing. Whoever that lady is on his/her profile is a black woman and not a mixed woman.

I've just joined this blog or thread about an hour ago. After months of searching for nigerian blogs this one specifically got my attention. I appreciate the fact that it is flexible and I can discuss anything I want with the variety of sub sections I've seen here. let me introduce myself, My name is Naomi Van jaarsveld I was born in South Africa in Cape Town I'm 20 years old. I'm a mixed race person at least that's what people call me, My father is Afrikaans a mixture of Dutch and German descendent and my mother is an African Black. but I identify myself as a black person.

I've always moved from country to country because of my father's crucial job. I've lived in Japan, Ivory Coast, Wales, Austria, Angola and even Ghana but I've never had a chance to go to Nigeria. When my father told us that he will be doing some business in Nigeria and we have to move here for 2 years until he is done I was drained. In South Africa the way our Media and our people perceive Nigeria is not a positive way. I was nervous seriously but I said to myself I've always thought Ghana was a place where everyone is hungry and there were slums everywhere only when we moved there in 2011 I saw that the beauty of the country is way beyond nature everyone was so friendly especially my tutors as I was forced to be home schooled. I enjoyed everything the food, the culture and I've made friends whom they taught me French and i taught them Afrikaans.

A month ago on the 5th of July we departed from South Africa to ABUJA arrived at Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport then went to a place called maitama Region. I was so amazed to see the beauty of Nigeria. I have not yet explored some of the places but I've been to Gwagwalada and next Month I'm shipping to see Lagos. After all I see that Nigeria is not all about drug sellers and witchcraft that the nigerian movies always potray to the world.

And everyone is so kind and lovely and very helpful. my dad's collegues children they are currently teaching me Hausa and Igbo tribes and I'm teaching them Afrikaans and So tho. I love this country so much and i hope that im going to make some great friends here on nairala nd i cannot wait to read all about the current issues occurring in Nigeria. I've been listening to some me of your music I love psquare and yemi olade.

I'm looking forward into meeting friends from the same area maybe we can meet up and you can teach me all I need to know to feel right at home. I'll be keeping you posted about my stay here in Abuja and ill be writing posts about some of the things that really intrest me.

You are welcome again.

They gave me a variety of languages and I chose French because here in South Africa we hardly even know French
. NB I didn't visit the village

NB local languages are not spoken only in the village. If you have really been to Ghana you would know that.

It's like saying Zulu is only spoken in the village etc which sounds moronic to be honest

You mentioned in your post that you stayed in japan. How do you find that place? It's my dream country.

Naomithato1:

Oh well that's true white people still own most of the wealth but some black people and coloured are stepping up their A game. and also the black government is corrupted

so what are you doing about it is there any plans Or we should put your father and take black peoples land like they did before... Oooh! That's not corruption!

Hmmmnnn. . .

some people have no shame and this poor beautiful girl fell victim of the person behind that moniker

crisycent:


I know, in your dreams.

just when you thought going to SA is the biggest thing anyone can achieve abi?

It's very prominent the side where we resided was not that fancy it was just a normal middle class place although I wanted to visit the city we couldn't find the time because of their strict travelling laws. its a wonderful place I would suggest it to anyone who wants to move there

How long do you think it will take to learn japanese at N1 level. Seriously considering furthering there and moving there.

I'm just being realistic our country spent hundreds of the tax payers money just to upgrade his home and supply for his 6 wives that's corruption. South African Black people's minds are not yet delivered, everyone is greedy and lazy they never want to work or get the free education that was granted to them then they blame apartheid and white people it has gotten so worse they even blaming foreigners. especially the Zulu people they are probably the worst. I will not do anything about the corrupted government ill just sit back and watch and if the DA does not take over in the next two elections I'm leaving the angry South Africa. ....

well maybe a month or so but did you know that you can actually get paid good money just to be an English teacher that side? If you have a degree and you did so well in your English studies I think you can apply to teach English. .

Not interested in teaching wanna do my msc there in naval architecture probably at university of tokyo, it's one of the best in the world, I would like to know if they offer jobs to black people there, not as teachers but as engineers.

They are not racist at all at least the ones I've met who can speak English and are not ignorant. The are a lot of job opportunities that side and I'm sure they will give you a job. But learning their language must be your goal most of the things are written in their language. It was so bad for us everyone had a translation app on their phones

dream on

When you were Ladytee-THATO, you claimed to be:

A 21yrs old mixed South African girl from Cape Town, born to a white Afrikaaner father and a black Mom.

Today as Naomi THATO, you're:

A 20yrs old mixed race person. My father is Afrikaans a mixture of Dutch and German descendent and my mother is an African Black.

Same old foolish Naaigerian KK, different moniker.


Ps: Afrikaans is a language

what I suspected.......she must know that south Africans stand side by side they don't go around and bad mouth each other, but she won't understand.....she's just like other Nigerian that think Nigeria is more developed than SOUTH AFRICA only to find that their dream is to be SOUTH AFRICAN and that dream won't come true!
