even with all you have said above, it still won't sink into some skulls much less brains that corrupt though we are, we are not the sole architets of this corruption, neither are our corrupt politicians the sole beneficiaries because the corruption is a cycle that even or should i say especially the western goverments benefit from by proxy only they will never admit it publicly, they will rather blow hot air through the media & psuedo-occidento-govermental NGO's about corruption indices, bla bla bla which though true, are misleading since they don't tell the full story.
& yet, some Nigerian dudes go over there, accept anything offered & when asked about Nigeria, trashtalk Nigeria to the west & their media almost kinda insinuating that Nigeria was a type of hellfire, but they will rather lease it out & live in the real hell. Seriously they potray Nigeria to be that bad. I have had arguments with many westerners & asians who have never been to Nigeria before who when i say am Nigerian, suddenly beleive i am hungry,malnourished,diseased with a swollen belly & swathing flies constantly & wonder how i got internet connection & are totally convinced that that is the true scenario on ground in Nigeria & would accept no argument that contradicts their opinions of us & many Nigerians at home and especially abroad do everything short of being hungry,malnourished,diseased with bloated bellies & swathing flies to re-enforce this erroneous beleif about Nigeria. Many of these Nigerians are not aware &\or if aware, dont really care that whatever benefits they are getting there are directly or inderectly accrued from their own nation amongst others by these western goverments by proxy & yet these westerners project a benefactor psyche from themselves onto these Nigerians who then feel very gratefull for every scrap they can gather, like SERIOUSLY! angry are you kidding me? Am not condeming those who go abroad to better themselves and i must stress "THEMSELVES" because when i go out, i will be doing it for myself and by extension, my family, but i won't go there & thrashtalk my country knowing fully well that i have neither done nor sacrificed anything for her to earn the right to complain in the first place. Afterall, the education i have gotten in Nigeria, while not of Havard, MIT, Yale, Princeton, Oxford & Cambridge standards, it is to many intents & purposes free as i know i wouldn't have been able to afford it in those western countries & the prerogative to build on this foundation is solely mine & not the goverment's.
Everyone who has ever lived in Nigeria should objectively & sincerely reflect on themselves & tell us if throughout their existence,the goverment has done absolutely nothing for them & anyone they know.

Over here would deny him ? We're talking about a life and death situation. This isn't about borrowing milk from your neighbor. A relative of mine also recently died in the same manner. The reason nigerians abroad "look down" on nigerians in Nigeria is because most are idiots who know nothing about building a civilized society. When you try to educate them they dismiss you. We'll ladies and gentlemen this is why you pay a lot of taxes. Those mocking those who live abroad "paying all those taxes" this is exactly why you must do it here. So when you need emergency medical care you get it period regardless of your income.

As for those who claim people abroad get treated like 2nd class citizens. Is this how a 1st class citizens are treated there? Dying in a hospital because of no money ? I've heard of dogs in distress getting emergency medical care. Keep your 1st class treated I'd rather get treated as a 2nd class citizen in another man's country. I still get better treatment than a 1st class naija citizen.

you are right

most NINs are dunces bereft og what it takes to build a country

Yes i have lived a long enough live of misery, suffering, failed dreams, unfulfiled promises, and disapointments in Nigeria. If i was a citezen of a sane country, my dreams would certainly have been realized, my ambitions will be given support by the government, my skills would have given me a job without having any connections, my life would have been a happy one as every social amenity will be available, i would not have developed a mild depression as the environment will be conducive, i would not have developed heat rashes and occational malaria because of excesive heat combined with lack of electricity .

see your mouth like sakabulaaaaaa,if u are priviledge to get a better job in nigerian,dat doesnt mean u are better than the millions of unemployed hardworking graduates in nigerian.
Nigeria is not design for the youth,even your so called greedy leaders always travel to western world for medical and education.the only reason they r here is because they want to loot the country dry....
For your information 85 precent of our leaders have dual citizen in Uk,GERMANY,CANADA and USA
so stop spewing trash don't let the peanut u are receiving to deceive u with no good constant electricity and health system infact i pray ur family did not contact any deadly diseases dat will require surgery in the western country which will cost u all ur hard earned money.....

You have said it all, they just make mouth on the internet and rants. Nigerians are very selfish and only care about ourselves.

Are the Okada riders, beggars, unemployed graduates and other less priviledge citizens are not Nigerian.

The so called celebrities go abroad for shows, medical treatment abroad, vacation and their wives have babies overseas and other stuffs.

If they really believe that Nigeria is that great, they won't be travelling abroad for those things I mention.

My brother, only a fool will see how things are in Nigeria and not plan his life out now. Like I always tell my Nigerian friends in the UK or here, Nigeria is a destiny killer. A country where nothing except corruption works.

@OP
Count yourself lucky to be in a position that rejecting a job offer from UN (which will be an escape route outta naija, dreams of the millions) means nothing to you.

My elder brother's friend lost his mum to a little sickness that would have been cured if she was in a good environment even Ghana. She lost her life because there was no electricity with a stupid escuse that the Generator is not working. Put yourself in his shoes and tell me if you wont wish naija was better.

Probably you havent experienced the bitter scourge that most Nigerians experience. Judging life from the yardstick of money only is very flawed and idiotic. How do you enjoy life without electiricty? okay lets assume you have money to buy generator, do you enjoy the noise and the deadly smoke it generates? do you enjoy the fact that your neighbour sleeps in the dark and his child is at risk of motor accident when they go to school alone every morning? do you enjoy the fact that you have to apply for visa everytime you want to travel out for a genuine reason? can you rely on the emergency response of the health officials if you have a minor accident? do you trust the police? do you enjoy the traffic and the litters on the streets? probably you havent experienced life abroad, you wont be saying all this.

As for people looking down on you simply because you reject an UN offer, how are their circumstance? that can be an escapism out of poverty and a direct upliftment to their offspring and family. Migration has also been a core characteristics of the human nature, if anyone choose to migrate, its their choice and their life.

Once again, be happy you got it all good.


Dont mind d op , have always have same issue with people that are doing good in Nigeria,u have to shut d hell up and leave anyone who wants to leave africa or Nigeria.

You’re so right, it’s a long dysfunctional structure and things just keep getting worst by the sec; just imagine having kids.

I have always said rich or not have a backup plan coz it only takes a different political p to come in and all your asset and wealth goes straight down the drain except you’re very rich I mean the elite. group.

Yes. This thread started in 2014. 5 years later, it became the poverty capital of the world. Even the rich have backup plans just in case
