nemesis

yeah thats one thing i hate....rich and poor dont mix which is really sad.....and some of the people are so snobby its unreal i get into arguments about it all the time, when you are rich everyone kisses your backside but when you are poor people treat you like dirt.......if Nigeria can sort out the corruption (which aint gonna happen during my lifetime)....it would be easy........TBH the worst thing that happened to that country was the discovery of oil

like i said the middle classes over here have a much much better standard of living than those in the Uk so dont hate just because we live better than you or your familyBUT being poor over here is shocking ....you go to any ghetto in africa the carribean or south america you will see REAL POVERTYOne thing i will say is there is no balance the rich people are richer than anyone over here you will meet in your life unless you are mates with abramovitch and the poor people are poorer than anyone you will see people like you wouldnt make it outside the Uk......there aint no benefits system...you would probably die of starvationlook at you tryna sell ur shithole country on the basis of having maids, drivers and 2 jeepsf*ck right off you cretini see from your av that you are banging cheryl cole LOL...you pratt......you are any random black yute from the ends....you are not and never will be original or amount to anything above mediocre in life....you probably never met your dad and i can bet that your numerous kids will never meet you.....your hating masks your obvious inferiority complex....if something aint for you then its all good but to be all Ghetto and hate is just childish.....I have no time for anyone that aint proud of where they come from wherever it is and even less time for idiots like you that aint done f*ck all with their life apart from draw a giro but feel they know it all..even though i was born here .....i always saw myself as nigerian and i always wanted to go back and invest my future back home.....aint nothing wrong in living in england (its a great country) also there is nothing wrong in going back wherever you are from whether it be the carribean or africa to put down roots....the best piece of advice i can give you is when you do end up in prison..(and we both know you will) try and use your time constructively...I know that you've never met your Dad or any decent male role model so the best bit of advice I can give you is that when you do end up in prison (because you will) try and take up a course and better your life and rehabilitate yourself

the state.... yeah we have bin men....police ambulances and firemen........when it comes to the ambulances you are better off finding your own way to hospital tbh sounds brilliant, youre really selling it wellwhere do i sign?a lot of people born in the uk and the states are moving back to africa because its an open market and the relative stability....a lot of sh*t is popping off in Ghana as well...a lot of Americans are moving to Ghana as its a lot more calmer than Nigeria.....I would say pick a country to visit and have a look at the kind of skills that are in demand...a western education is always an advantage .....IT skills are always in demand.....engineering...telecommunications as well

like i said the middle classes over here have a much much better standard of living than those in the Uk so dont hate just because we live better than you or your familyBUT being poor over here is shocking ....you go to any ghetto in africa the carribean or south america you will see REAL POVERTYOne thing i will say is there is no balance the rich people are richer than anyone over here you will meet in your life unless you are mates with abramovitch and the poor people are poorer than anyone you will see people like you wouldnt make it outside the Uk......there aint no benefits system...you would probably die of starvation

the state.... yeah we have bin men....police ambulances and firemen........when it comes to the ambulances you are better off finding your own way to hospital tbh

better life than over here trust me......constant sun.....good food......standard of living ten times better than the UK...how much tax do you pay?...because we arent taxed over here.....your money goes further...dont fool yourself my friend

unlike anyone posting in this board I ACTUALLY LIVE IN AFRICA.....I decided to move 2 years ago and its the best decision i made in my life.......i spend 9 months a year in Nigeria and the other 3 over here...the two richest black people in the world according to Forbes are Nigerian although off the radar they aint even in the top 5 richest Nigerians........africa is on a different level and to be honest the man over here and in the US are small fry......Financially blacks in the western world will NEVER be on the same level as africans...i meet African people that own airlines ,banks, oil companies , mobile phone networks all the time, i never met one all the years i lived here and in the states ......multi billionaires are ten a penny in Africa but the richest black british man is worth about £200 million, out of the top 100 companies in the Uk only one is headed by a black man...In the words of Chris Rock how many blacks over here are rich and how many are wealthy?people that own multimillion pound yaughts and private jets are ten a penny over here...as a black person in the western world tell what do you think your chances are of becoming for example a millionaire without picking up a mike or going into sports.....its easy to be succesful BUT how easy is it as a black person to break through the glass ceilingGoldman sachs and JP Morgan both commissioned reports recently that said by 2020 Nigeria will be one of the worlds superpowers, this has led to a mad scramble of foreign companies trying to invest over here and the Chinese over here are deep...especially in Lagos governor Fashola is doing a great job..The biggest problem Africa and Nigeria faces plain and simple is the massive corruption taking place....Russia and Nigeria are the only two places on earth i can think of where someone can go from being penniless to a billionaire within a year with no reasonable explanation as to where the money came fromTrust me im glad i made the move i have a four bedroom house not far from the beach, two jeeps, a maid, a driver , and a gateman and people still call me a "smallboy" because over there that is small potatoes...by the way anyone going to rave in lagos entry to clubs are free......there are too many clubs to mention but Autolounge is the spot right now its on top of a rolls royce dealership and it closes around 6am......if you like funky then Caliente is a good spot although it gets over rammed......dont attempt to drive unless you know what you are doing cause the traffic is crazy......and the people are bless....

get a checkup every year in november for insurance and health reasons......blood test.....blood pressure mri scan.....everything......never ever caught anything........and believe me back in the day i was a bit careless...i would recommend it

:blink: .... the fans.......

JUJU does not workI have traditional rulers in my family these people are the ones that have always and still use juju men ,herbalists, babalawo or whatever you want to call them,basically i was told that these men were/are alchemists....for example they were experts in the use of poison and back in the day if you wanted someone killed for example if you went to them they would perform whatever ritual but at the same time they would give you a poison to put in the persons food or drink without revealing it was a poison, they had fast acting poison or slow acting ones ....so if the babalawo says i will perform this ritual and this person will be dead in 7 days to outsiders it seems like magic while to those that know it was the use of poisonthey also knew how to heal the sick, once again by the use of medicines made from herbs but once again rather than saying these people were cured using herbal remedies magic once again was given as a reasonin Nigeria up untill today Juju men are used to keep rain away i.e if you are having a wedding......rain is quite localised meaning it can be pouring down in peckham but new cross is bone dry......whereas most people believe that the juju men can stop rain what they dont know is was discovered years ago that if a certain type of leaf is burnt (i think banana but im not quite sure) it would stop rain from penetrating that type of atmosphere, which is why when you see them performing the ritual they burn leaves but once again these are things that the general public are not party todunno why he was neggednuttin but real talk in therei was always curious as to whether juju was real as like everyone else id heard all the stories....to cut a long story short way way back i followed my dad to see an oba (king)...anyways we were in the palace and anyone that knows anything about these things knows that every palace has a room where all the juju is kept that only the oba or juju man has access to it...its also standard practice that most obas have a juju man that lives in the compound of the palace and many obas will never travel outside the palace without their own personal juju man being with them.....these juju men nearly always come from generations spanning pre slavery days so secrets have been handed down over the centuries through father to son or they were outsiders who came as apprentices as kids....these are the people that showed me that juju doesnt involve magic that its basically all the things i posted earlier onbelieve it or not many traditional rulers are christian or muslim....so why keep up the pretense?its 50% to keep with tradition and 50% because it invokes fear......Nigeria has gully armed robbers who will kill police in the blink of an eye but many would never go near a traditional ruler for fear of juju.....sort of like how certain dregs of society over here would think twice about robbing a church or mosque because of the fear of retribution from Godtrust me ive heard the same thing over and over again from different people connected and they all say the same thing

THISread my post .....the sh*t aint real.....the difference between me and people posting in this topic is they are outsiders to the whole juju thing, im talking from an insiders point of view....im not talking about what ive heard or what i believe but from what people who actually practice juju tell me.....you can evoke whatever you like...sh*t wont work.....common saying in Africa "if Juju really worked an African country would have won the world cup already"... the amount of African footballers tthat use Juju is ridiculous and they still aint reached past quater finals

Jesus you sound like my best friend its simple men/women will always test you in life to see how far they can push you, its just human nature........its up to YOU on how far you allow people to take the piss....if they think you are a pushover whether its your girl or even your own family liberties will be taken...the fault lies with you....its not about boxing anyone thats childish....you have to let people know where the line is and also that the minute that line is crossed you are gone...and more importantly once said line is crossed unless its family NEVER back down

i hear what you are saying, there are many mysteries in life that are truly unknown and unexplored .......but then that leads to the question ..does magic really exist? is it realanyone can perform voodoo but is voodoo really magic?i cant tell you how derren brown guessed someones pin number by just looking at their credit card.....so was that magic,voodoo or a trick....all i can tell you is i saw him do itthe point im trying to make in a roundabout way is just because it cant be explained it doesnt mean its voodoo or magic

funny thing is the really good ones use a lot of the same techniques as your david blaines or derren brownif derren brown stops you in the street and tells you what xmas gift your aunties sisters cousin gave you 5 years ago you think "wow great trick how did he do that? but you dont beleive its real magicafricans are extremely extremely supersticious/ religeous....the concept of fate or "sh*t happens" is not one they believe in so when you have some Juju man in front of you that can more or less perform the same trick the concept of trickery doesnt even come into the equation

What are you smoking cuz?

Thats my opinion and i know most people wont agree with me.....really and truly i dont listen to any of that kind of music because it seems to be devoid of any kind of feeling, i might as well listen to cheryl cole.....thank God Sade is coming back next year

THE EMPERORS NEW CLOTHESClassic case of style over content.....take away the videos, outrageous dressing and just listen to the music and it sounds like any eurosynthpop crap coming from the continenther music is absolutely banal which is why most people concentrate on her image ....if you like that kind of music la roux are a million times bettermadonna >>>> gwen stefani >>>la roux>>>>>>kylie >>>>>lady gagaone thing i will say is Akon got the marketing on point....guy knows what he is doing.....first time i ever saw t pain i thought "hell no, this dude dresses like ronald macdonald and looks ilke a buffoon"....but boy tpain done the numbers....Akons got a good team behind him, hopefully he can do something for sway

hell only do 12 months.........but still a bit harsh

today - budget presentation then kandy bar to rave with friendstomorrow - christmas shopping for the nieces ....then long bar in the evening with the missessunday - upton park to see west ham play chelsea......then any random bar to drown my sorrows after we inevitably lose 4 nil ,maybe Aurra after

saw the film at vue in the o2 last night....for some reason i thought it wouldnt live up to the hype but the storyline was decent and the 3D effects were amazing.............DEFINITELY watch it in 3D just to quick edit, it reminds me of when matrix first came out and how it took special effects to another levelapparently SKY is coming out with a 3D service very soon

has the run been extended.....ive been meaning to see this in January but i was told it finishes this year
