To be fair to METRO MAN, there is definately some truth in his statement, my experience was similar to what he has expressed. If you dash it will definately help expadite what you are looking for, it was that way ten years ago unless there has been dramatic chenges since then.

Don't forget that corruption in Africa is all the white mans fault for either offering bribes in the first place or paying them when demanded.

You chaps haven't exactly made a very good job of things over the last forty odd years have you ?

Nigeria with its vast oil wealth could be one of the richest countries in the world yet the vast majority live in poverty. Tremondous agricultural potential, some of which is being developed by displaced white Zimbabwean farmers, yet you have to import food. An oil producer with regular fuel shortages ???

I mearly commented that converting to a Nigerian licence could involve corruption, given that it is endemic in Nigeria. You even have your own word for it - "dash".

I have 5 ATPLs and 1 CPL so I do have some experience of licence conversion.

Thumbs up ok

Since you know so much about the faults of the Black and White men Metro Man, please tell me what is the problem with White People and Pedophilia and all these lurid accounts of child molestation we keep getting on the news on nearly a daily basis now, even in the Catholic and Anglican Church by white priests!!!

Many people down here in Nigeria still don't understand what this mental illness is all about, and are worried about foreign teachers, pilots engineers and all that coming to Nigeria.

Since the arrest of Christopher Paul Niel, a Canadian teacher It has come to the point that some professionals in the aviation industry in Nigeria are calling for thorough screening of all foreign pilots of caucasian origin concerning their backgrounds and enlisting the help of foreign agencies to do a background check before we allow them in here.

The biggest misunderstanding many people have here is that pedophilia and homosexuality are one and the same.

How in the name of God can a grown up man find a toddler sexualy desirable
The other day at the airport I backed away when my white colleague tried to pick up my 5yr old son from me, dont get me wrong man just a tad worried

Could you advise.
