ppl flying back to their respective motherland/native countries during the christmas/new years festive season for whatever reason be it to party, see family, etc has been a thing Since long before I was even born.
At the root this is what it is.

In Calabar, there are multiple festivals with traditional masquerades and dances.

I get Nigerians puts a target on their backs, but the way it’s spoken about sometimes on here make me think I’m speaking to White Britians.

When I went to nigeria for a damn 30 day visa i had to provide 3 months bank statement, invitation letter from a nigerian who has a passport, booked hotel, proof of funds. And then when you land people asking to give you money so they won't search my bag, "anything for the girls". Then if you make it out the airport you're hounded left and right and stuck forever in traffic.

Ish was ridiculous and its still the same process, yet for like uganda, kenya etc. you can just go online and ten minutes you're done.

Lol the inside joke is that you can create a whole mini TV series at the Lagos airport due to the amount of fukkin nonsense that goes on over there.

My boy had to go with a police officer inside the manager's office and threatened to lock up him up if they didn't release his stolen bags today, nah the group chat was in shambles when he sent that video holy fukk :mjlol:

Nah boy really sent a video of the police officer pointing a loaded shotgun at the managers head, nah that airport is traumatic as fukk :huhldup:

She said Ba Wo Ni, we do not claim her :camby:
And you're saying this as a Naija man.... so me going as a non african black man, you're saying I'm fresh meat.....:to:... new flavored suya???:lupe:

Here's the thing they just gave it a title but ppl flying back to their respective motherland/native countries during the christmas/new years festive season for whatever reason be it to party, see family, etc has been a thing Since long before I was even born. This isn't a new movement that just propped up, this has been going on since the 60s/70s and iirc they do same thing in the Caribbeans and Latin America. It's not even just Nigeria as we're talking South Africa, Gambia, Uganda, Ghana, Kenya, Cape Verde, Sierra Leone, Senegal, Liberia and almost all African countries are currently just as packed

You think this just started just because they gave it a title all of sudden? :patrice:


I'm talking about the women going directly to Lagos for the nightlife, clubs, events and parties...

You are talking about people going to villages in Nigeria where their family live...

It’s because all the kids who are millennials plus gen z finally got some money and can gallivant as they please without their parents. My 17 yr old cousin flew back with his 3 older sisters last week. You can’t tell that lil nigha shyt he thinks he’s el chapo or sumn rn. All he does is ride his dirt bike/atv from one house party, club, beach front to the next. I can’t front I’m jealous they wouldn’t let me do that shyt when I was his age lucky b*stard :martin:

you need someone on soil to guide you, I don’t even go back by myself unless my god brother or 2nd cousin comes and picks me up from the airport directly. I’m legit scared to leave by myself on certain days especially if I land late at night. Need to have everything prearranged before you arrive

again they been doing that for time but the generation before this current one never broadcasted which was largely Gen X. This clout chasing on social media has brought some foolishness now. I shouldn’t be paying Miami prices in Lagos but here we are now smh
