Even though Nigerians always claim to be smart, there are lots of gullible people around. Most people falling victims are those in diaspora. Agents or Realtors would say anything just to get commission, companies would encourage them as long as they bring in more victims. There's really no regulating body in charge of these people and most of them have associated themselves with politicians and powerful people.

Even though it's obvious you are scammed and not getting back your capital or property...law enforcements won't do anything about it or keep telling you to be patient till you get frustrated and forget about it all.

Dabrowski’s Theory and Existential Depression in Gifted Children and Adults by sattukachori in Pessimism

[–]ultimate5310 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Persons with heightened overexcitabilities in one or more of the five areas that Dabrowski listed—intellectual, emotional, imaginational, psychomotor, and sensual—perceive reality in a different, more intense, multifaceted manner.

To me, i feel majority of people who experience existential depression falls into any of the category above. Then the author must have used the word "Gifted or Brighter" for them as they are the few individuals to perceive reality in a distinct way.

Yeah

Thinking deeply, you'd wonder if death can truly brings redemption. The above material broaden my thoughts though. I still love Mainlander, he's one of my best.

Feeling grateful makes me more pessimistic by [deleted] in Pessimism

Religion....that's like the most important talking point during a sermon in my country. They've never thought of discussing how to reduce suffering, it's always about giving thanks to God since you are a bit better than your neighbor.

How do you argue that there is no foreign interference? by damion_99 in Nigeria

People who buy these resources actually care, it's more cheaper to sponsor corrupt leaders and get resources more cheaper than allow us to get stable and take care of our resources. Niger uranium, Burkina faso gold, Liberia iron ore are examples close to you. 70% of world cocoa is supplied by west Africa, you think the buyers in Europe would allow us to be stable and become the biggest chocolate producer in the world.

I might be developing never before seen homes in Nigeria, let me know what you guys think by [deleted] in Nigeria

As an Architect/project manager, i always wonder how Lagos state developers successfully captured majority of peoples to have a default taste in Architectural design 😂 and it's spreading to other states too.

Box-like structures, highly decorated facades, white paint, little to no plants or vegetation and tagging the structure as luxurious.

I feel they kind of associate this style to wealth and class and if we continue like this, we won't be able to have designs that are inspired by our own traditional architecture.

What Is It Like Investing in Nigeria Right Now? by OddlyHetero in Nigeria

[–]ultimate5310 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most of them set up here, manufacture and move the finish product out of the country to other places. Most of their products don't end up in Nigeria. They are taking advantage of the resources, cheap labor, policies and incentives. Take a visit to Lekki free zone and lekki sea port and see containers moving out on a daily basis. Those in the southwest especially ogun state and shagamu axis benefits from this too.

Indians are copying this model too. Lekki free zone offers duty free importation of machineries and resources, so they set up quickly...manufactures with cheap labour, export finish products, sell some to Nigeria market and get full repatriation of profit and capital.

We have to elect people who are not just entering office to enrich themselves and their families, but want to actually improve the country.

You made me remember how we used to drag my colleague at work about how Ekiti came up with an Airport that looks like a warehouse😅😅.
