Reading what Alexxo11 said about the behaviour of some Nigerians just irked me.

Why can't some just respect their host country?

alexxo11:
what he is saying is that we kenyans are slowly getting tired of most of these uneducated nigerians who were coming to our country.

In your honest opinion, how do Kenyans view Nigerians (educated and uneducated) living in Kenya?! The point I'm trying to arrive at is if Kenyans generally view Nigerians living in Kenya as criminals, drug dealers, rapists e.t.c? The reason I'm asking is because it seems to be a trend that the inglorious reputation of Nigerians precedes us, such that honest Nigerians are tarred using the same dishonest brush.

I noticed there are a pretty stable sources of income over there business wise? Can someone gimme and insight to what thriving business can be done over dere pls I need dis info.

Well offcourse im sure that majority of nigerians are good ...but it is the behavior of the minority(which happens to be a large number)who spoil the name of your great nation.In kenya ,at first we knew nigerians as the "lords"of africa ,this was attributed to the fact that ur movies were a big deal back in the day.We were always honoured to meet a nigerian,then came the rapings ,blackmail,and all sorts of vices and our attitude changed.When you are a nigerian in kenya the first thing that comes to most peoples mind is conartists.A large majority of nigerians in kenya just stay in the house 24/7 and con people online, and then withdraw the monies through mpesa.This has actually Tainted our image in the online industry as we have already been redflaged as one of the countries with scammers,hence making it difficult to do online deals.What shocks me most is the aggogance most nigerians have on women.I mean the rape and battering of women by nigerians is just malicious!Is it a culture thing in nigeria??

Those nigerian traditional clothing are steadily becoming thing in kenya.If you can find a way to import them to Kenya ,you will make good money.

what he is saying is that we kenyans are slowly getting tired of most of these uneducated nigerians who were coming to our country.The other day ,from work , in a train heading to syokimau(where i live) there were some nigerians talking loudly in their mother tongue and laughing like idiots....people were so mad they were almost thrown out.All in all there is a slow but sure hate brewing among kenyans for most nigerians here....Not that we hate foreigners but most nigerians are just barbaric.Last week in a place called langata in nairobi a nigerian invited a kenyan girl to his house ,tapped her drink ,and then he and his friends raped her while she was unconscious.little did they know that the girl was the daughter of a senior police man.so after three days of tracking the phone they located the house and stormed it and actually found a nigerian in the act!!!the girl was raped for three days!!!nyhu all the 5 nigerians were stripped naked and boarded into a van never to be seen again!Im sure there somewhere buried with bullets on their heads....Point is when you come to kenya please be on the right side of the law...I really dont understand why its sooo hard for most nigerians to behave like humans.

My Gooood! Lord help us all, but these are the kind of things that drive a permanent wedge between people. We have historical and longstanding communities from other African countries. The Ugandans and Tanzanians are the most prominent, they just blend in and kenyanize over the generations. Nigerians and Congolese share a trait for the bizarre. When kenyans get fed up they can be pretty violent and unpredictable. I have a number of nieces who are of the dating age and i tell them to rather date a broke kenyan boy than a foreigner with secret fetishes who wouldn't bat an eyelid to sacrifice her to a strange wooden god i? order to get rich or famous. Am so shocked to read this, ilifanyika when?

I believe you have pretty much answered your question. Not good, at all.

Folafikemi:
I hate it each time I hear such statement like hate for Nigerians in diaspora, you ain't holy either. Nigerians got all it takes to excel within and without their country of origin and I guess dat is wat d hate is all about.

As much as I don't support criminal actions amongst Nigerians in diaspora but pls don't name us a criminal or barbaric as u said cos u people are worse off even within ur country.

An average Nigerian only hear about Kenya on news for bad reasons, either rape, or man stuck in a woman while having unholy affair and d likes.

Note dat ur country is no superior one to Nigeria in anyway. The fact is our economy bleeds right now and everyone only need a succour somewhere else.

With or without recession Nigeria will always Lead African countries anyways... no hate pls

Oga,
If your country has loads of people who have what it takes to succeed in and out, why is your country so very... how do I put this delicately....... unexcellent?

FYI, i joined nairaland to counter this perversity about Kenya, esp the stuuupid and daft sex related stories and a not so subtle attempt by forces seen and unseen to portray us as some latter day Sodom and Gomorrah. It is precisely this kind of messaging on nairaland that leads some of your less talented countrymen to think that they shall land at the tarmac of the airport and find people bonking away. The same mindset that leads a man to think he can detain an innocent girl and gang rape her in a flat after drugging her drink. What is it about nigerians and crime? Go anywhere in the world and you find very healthy and robust Nigerian inmate compliment. Why is this?

Finally, work on your attitude. Arrogance is a disease every bit as bad as Ebola. Contagious and disgusting, but very unmistakable in its final outcome. Since when does an average african citizen in any country think he is worse off than an average Nigerian? Travel to some better off african nations like Botswana, Namibia.... heck even an average Swazi is waaay better off than an average Nigerian, i kid you not.

Just so you know, you can't make a payment for your Kenya's e-visa without a dollar card or activated credit or debit card.

Three documents you would need to upload are

1. International passport photo page, must be colored and valid for upwards of 6 month from point of visa issuance

2. Passport photograph, must be colored and clear with white background

3. Hotel reservation

E-visa comes out in less than 48 hours and you print from the portal, they don't send to mail. So you check periodically.

If your business is online related, or agriculture or tourism related Kenya is perfect. But for white collar jobs not too sure.

Any other info feel free to ask me

wow! you have been so resourceful bro. I'll arrange with a Uber driver before arriving. For the accommodation, we won't be staying more than 5days before leaving for Kigali. do you still suggest renting a flat for that limited period of time?

Thanks always!

Fellow Nairalanders, i hail o. please i have a question to ask. I want to travel with kenya airways to rwanda but i am aware that the baggage should not exceed 23kg 2pieces for economy.

My question is i want to travel with a box, a ghana must go and a plasma Tv but the total for all wont exceed the 46kg but i cant place the plasma Tv in the ghana must go. wont the luggage be 3pieces already? even though i wont exceed the 46kg limit

Please guru in the house pls help a novice

5days is too little for a flat...coz here they charge per month...a hotel is advisable...since you are with family i can reccommend some hotels for you (cheap ones since the stay is short)

I live in a 3bdroomed apartment ,hence its kinda small for accomodating a whole family (as in ur case) so i will look for a cheap hotel and get back to you.

Hello boss, if you don't mind, can I have your contact?07066236695(WhatsApp)

mechoau:
so at the embassy, God surprises me in a way I never expected bcus I met one of the staff /boss who helped me out wth just 30k nd I got it in 2 days. the 30k wasn't for d e-Visa alone but including rendering assistance on accommodation, booking cheap airline ticket nd skipping off hotel booking since am staying wth a fwend. although d hotel booking is compulsory bcus of d immigration at their embassy but he has ways of doing it since am going to stay up wth a fwend

he has lots of guys who he has hlp to Kenya nd he ask if I will be interested staying with a male or female friends but I said I prefer male nd he called one of dem to ask if he can accommodate me dat am a cousin to his wife but d guy response was yes that am welcome to his place but I sud send 2k to his account as t-fare

Taking an Uber ride on arrival will be better. Change few dollars at the airport to cover the Uber ride and things needed immediately. Then in the morning head to the city centre and change what you intend spending while in Kenya at a Forex shop.

Staying in a hotel since you will be around for just 5 days is recommended.

There are many Nigerian restaurants in Nairobi, Mummy Dada is one of them located in the upscale neighbourhood of Lavington. I guess you intend experiencing kenyan dishes.

It is Ankara not aso oke. Kenyans are embracing them.
