Love is great, but love that can remove you from the shores of this country is better. Luckily for you, we have a couple foolproof steps that’ll get you international love.
Learn how to pronounce “expatriate”
How are you going to find an expatriate and be with them if you can’t even pronounce the word? You can tackle the spelling later, but for now, pop that “p”, roll that “r”, and pronounce the word like a pro.
Be yourself, but with a twist
We’re not saying you should do a complete overhaul of your person o, we’re just saying you should add a little spice and maggi. Small Amerigbo accent here, a new walk there.,You know, keep it fresh and spicy. Any time you open your mouth, let their face be filled with shock; shock them into wedding you.
Move yourself
We’re not saying things are not popping in your current state of residence, but if you aren’t living in Lagos or Abuja, then you’re wrong.
There might be oyibo fish in your sea, but there’s no way those fishes are as plenty as the ones in these two states. So, it’s best you pack your bags and head on to larger seas.
Change your hairstyle
You can either scrape your head, gorimakpa style or you can opt for shuku, bantu knots, or thread. You don’t have to like the hairstyle, it just has to get their attention.
Make custom officers your friends
When we say customs, we mean the ones that work in the airport. If you go and find the ones that are standing on the road or the ones that clear goods at the port, then you are on your own.
Make a friend in the customs or aviation industry and beg them — don’t ask, beg them to tell you when the oyibos that are your spec (you want to japa, but you still have taste) enter the country. You can now strategically position yourself and they can mistakenly bump into you. Boom, meet cute. Boom, love at first sight.
Become a flight attendant
A close alternative would be taking up a job as one of those people that push trolleys at the airport. If you’re really nice and consistent, they’ll see you over and over again, then they’ll befriend you. Next thing you know, you’re in Canada, earning in CAD and living a new life.
Sit down in the lobby of Eko hotel
Honestly, you could sit down in front of the Federal Palace Hotel as well. Walking around ShopRite and Ikeja City Mall is also an option. The point of this is to sha get visibility. Hopefully, when they see you three to five times in a row, they will be curious about you and not just think you’re a jobless person.
