I agree, were gonna pray that in years to come you'll still be happily married and

with kids. (wink)

I am in full support of Galaxy sayings.Fatherland Nigeria, is a great nation and everyone who has decicded to marry a Ngerian should be matured enough

to make their decisions.I plead with everyone in this forum to be mindful of the negative things they say about Fatherland Nigeria.Your countries are not better

nor every one a saint in there.

This forum has blessed me and many others who can attest.We are here to learn and help eachother.

Please I implore everyone not to speak only negative about Nigeria.

If you choose to marry a Nigeria is a personal thing.

Thanx fro your audience.

@Valentine, it's nice to know you're still on this board. So did everything work out for you?

Tell me, what city are you, maybe i can lead you to some nigerian stores nearby.

Hello, I am sorry for this long silence as I have just came back from Nigeria and my husband & I arrived safely. I am currently using HABANERO PEPPERS to cook our food due to being the only fresh pepper so easily found in the supermarket, however, the habanero peppers are burning my hands very severely every time I cook and I am wondering if there is any FRESH pepper that I can use that will not burn my hands or face, etc...All suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks so much

Well, what i use to cook are the red bell peppers, we Yoruba's call them Tatase, and for the spicy peppers, i use scoch bonnet peppers, they are small enough that you wont need to cut them.

JamesSarah,

why don't you pm me and i'll try and get you some few places in miami. I dont know the addresses but i know the locations. If you're also interested, there is a thriving nigerian community in miami, with many activities you may be interested in.

-- I'm still here also, i haven't had time to actually post but i do check back once in a while. Married life has been very busy, with a new baby in February '07, and the wifey adjusting life in this country.

Valentine, what's going on, why did you have to go back to Niaja, i thought you were going to try and work things out?

Well, i have more emphathy for those trying to sympathise with Valentine. the guy needs to pack his bag and head back home. No too way about it. He's told many stories on this forum, that's kind of make it difficult for me to think he's sincere about coming to the us for love and not just his escape to this country while taking advantage of an innocent person.

Valentine if you're reading this, from one naija man to another, make u pack go back go naija. na d kind thing wey u do dey give naija's bad name. how person go file for you, wait so tey only for in come talk say in no go marry you again, if to say u dey trutful from begining, u for don find out say she no be right for u and u no be right for am. if 2 say na about 10 15 yrs ago, i for say make u hang around, but dis country don tight now, and i no know how u fit make am, with no papers or money.

Congrats Valentine,

but can you please bring me some crayfish and some naija videos

thanks

PRAISE GOD FOR VICTORY AT LAST.

Hi All,

I am not a member of this forum, but by virtue of being Nigerian I drop in once in a while. I must say that I enjoy the forum tremendously and I do take time to pray for a couple you all.

Well, after a journey has definately tested my patience and my faith in God. I can now say that the journey is over. Despite New York's reputation for numerous delays my Green Card is on its way after a little more than a year.

The Lord is great!!!

I am now scrambling to get a UK visa and tickets to Nigeria for several business trips I have put off because of this. It's been a while since I have been home and the feeling is surreal.

I have to hurry back thou my wife and I have our formal wedding in June and I have almost thirty family members and friends flying in from Nigeria.

May the Lord bless your relationships, marriages, your families and may he cause his countenance to shine upon you. Greetings from NYC!!!

Seun

my wife's case was completed on September 21 2005, her interview was scheduled for today April 18 2006 and when she got to the embassy, she was told it's been rescheduled for next wednesday.

But once again, congratulations, you're almost there.

Xty-

i did not mean this to be a back and forth between you and i or meant it as a derogatory statement, i was just expressing what i know dey happen. U no talk 4 your post sey u dont dey come yankee several time b4 u meet the bobo, so i if i say i hope no be say bcos of papers you marry am, i just they express a credible opinion. It is true sey many naija's dey come home they show demselves for wetin dem no be, but you know, pple suppose look well well. I don see this dey happen several times wey be say woman dey marry men wey dem know know at all and for everyday na fight and abuse. i don see many examples and everytime i dey tell my people for naija say make them bcareful which man come from yankee come marry, because u never know which kind person the bobo be for this country and becos d bobo dey yankee no mean say na better person.

So once again, no offence meant from original post.

AGSOBA83....

No shaking BROS........ One Love my people

I don come, I don come.. so make we see how far e go be.

I for no mind go back ooo but for where I go start . You know levels now.

All the same.. I will keep your posted.

xty:

My wife called me to interprete the broken english you guys were using and fortunately or unfortunately i found the conversations so interesting and pitiful so i feel i should chip in lil advice to you.

Look my sister,I understand the kind of mistake wey you do but you no go just sit down there dey think whether to go back to naija abi na to stay here.As you said you resigned from your job in nigeria,you go find am hard to start all over again and your level for naija will go down been that you'll be staying without a job.but if you think that you can get that kind of handsome job back i don't mind advicing you to go back but if you know say you no fit get the job back,abeg stay here and have patience.as a woman you fit change that man.you fit make him know a lot he never knew since you said he no get something for up.Instead of coming in here making dem yankee people think say we dey marry dem for green card abeg make you seek advice from fellow naija people wey live near you cos it's better.i know say what you are going thru seems unbearable to you but you have to consider the other side of it cos somebody fit print this and use it against you because you sounded like you marry the bobo for paper.

like you said in your last qoute,you don come, you don come.so be a real woman and face it.

i wish you good luck.

iyke

thanks Iyke for breaking it down. i don live here long enough to understand how she dey feel, and na common thing for many naija wey come here, because everything na begin again moreso when person wey you come meet no be better person. i don see many of them. what i realize is that marriage in itself is a lot of hard work, regardles wether the spouse na usc of naija origin or just general usc. as a dey watch people comment here, you go no say no be easy thing to have two people from different cultures. everything na patience, as they say, patience is a virtue, and as yoruba people dey say, surulere.

So xty, like u said, you don come, you don come, you just got to make the best of it. good naija communities abound for this country, if to say na church or mosque u dey go, find one and meet people.

all the best xty. if you think you need someone to hala at about this place, you fit pm me.

nothing stops you from going back home, pack your bags and head back home. if you dont have the money, call your family in naija to send you the money. it's not worth it to be in a foreign country when you're not happy or willing to make yourself happy.

You'll have to be responsible for your happiness.

i just hope you did not marry him because you want to come to america or you want to leave him now that he has filed aos for you, and if he does not have any brains, why did you stoop so low to get involved with him in the first instance.

I wish you the best of luck.

joej-

you're going to Nigeria and which is not like any organized place. Since your husband is a Nigeria, your child is considered a Nigerian, so if you dont have a passport for the child, all your husband will need is a $20 bribe for a nigerian immigration officer to let your child him. But, you may not get to try it out as you will not be able to leave here without a passport and a visa.

My daughter was born in Nigeria, and i did not get her a nigerian passport, but American. She came over twice to the states and was not giving any problem to re-enter nigeria since her mother holds a Nigerian passport and i'm assuming the same will apply to you since your husband is a nigerian.

It's much easier for you to get a visa than getting a passport from the consul in NY or DC. what you can do is let the child go to Naija with US passport and if you wish, you may apply for the Naija passport in Naija. It's gonna be much cheaper and quicker, as long as you're willing to pay some bribes to expedite the process.

best of luck.
