One of the biggest culture shocks when I first got to America happened at my first job. I met a coworker at the vending machine trying to buy a can of soda, but he was a quarter short. I offered to give him a quarter, and he gladly took it, promising to repay it the following day—which I thought was absurd for just 25 cents. I thought he was playing. The next day, bro was waiting for me by the entrance with a quarter in his hand. I told him to keep it, but he refused. I eventually accepted the money and thanked him. The events replayed in my head throughout the day. May God continue to bless America.

Can a grown man really bath with a bucket of water and be clean?

There is a housing crisis in Nigeria and it will only get worse if care is not taken.

Drop that phone, go to bed.

The only thing this is useful for is having your kids do it and see how much level they can unlock, just for the fun of it.

Can only happen in Canada. They will never try this nonsense with the US. Only if y'all know how behind Nigeria is in education.

I heard it is Saturday somewhere. No wonder this place is dry.

I heard they are celebrating post codes. But why the fuck is it so long like the history of poverty?

May God punish everyone pulling Nigeria back.

Why ain't you sleeping?

This was how Mungo Park was able to discover River Niger—people were asleep with the door wide opened. Imagine a whole continent, at 12am, with no single military plane in its airspace.

If someone give you a gift, thank them and shut the hell up. No need to announce to other people to thank them for you. By so doing, you are either creating issue for yourself, your helper, or you are blocking future chances for yourself. Be wise.

Sometimes, you just have to give up and explore other options. The earlier the better.

100k to one person vs 100k from one person. The math is not fair.

It is easier and cheaper for one person to receive 5k from 20 people, than it is for one person to send 5k to 20 people. Do the math, and read that again.

We will see the kind of cookings they will do with these gas cylinders. I hope they are spicy enough.

There’s this new lady at my workplace. I've been helping her settle in with trainings and everything else. Last week she slid into my DMs asking what my weekend plans were. I told her I didn’t have anything special lined up. She said she’d been waiting for me to make a move, but since I hadn’t, she wanted to take me on a date so we can get to know each other. Only thing making her hesitate was that we both work at the same place. I told her not to worry, nobody at work pays attention anyway. She agreed and sent me the location for Saturday night. Some lounge downtown I’d never heard of. I pulled up, walked inside, and froze. She was on stage… hosting the company’s mandatory team‑building event. Apparently the “date” was just HR’s creative way of making sure I showed up. I’ve never been tricked into bonding with coworkers so romantically.

Don't let anybody deceive you; you don't have to work overtime to make ends meet if you live abroad, the U.S. in particular. The system is designed so that your 40-hour workweek will sustain you and your family, as long as you are authorized to work. It's when you start living beyond your means, or start making yourself your extended family's breadwinner that you will now be forced to chase overtime. Don't let anybody pressure you into what doesn't concern you. Moving abroad is no different from moving to a different state in search of greener pastures, and the only difference is the exchange rate.
