A Word Of Advice For Africans Home And Abroad by dotcomnamename: 10:40am On Oct 13, 2014
By Sidonie Che:


''Its just a little advice for the people back home and the people in abroad, especially for the people back home.

I don't know why some of you guys sit back home and say ''i have a friend, i have a sister, i have a brother, i have a relative abroad, he or she has been there for 5 or 10 years, he or she has never done this or never done that, he or she has never send money to me... Come onnn.... Must they send money to you? Did you send them abroad? No! Do you think the fact they are in abroad do they pick money on the streets? No! Do you think that the fact they are from africa do you think a white man will just say hey you come here you are from africa you've got a lot of problems and a lot of relatives and friends take this 20,000 dollars? No!

The fact that we are in abroad is just a change of geographical location. so please, if i am here trying to better of my life and my family's life, you should be doing the same and not expecting from me and not expecting from others.

The one problem is we got disappointed because we expect more and we get disappointed, please don't expect. When it comes to you let it come as a surprise. Don't just sit there and talk all this kind of rubbish. You don't know what some of you, you don't know what some of your pressure can actually do to some people back here. They do all sort of nonsense to please you guys home, to send money to make a name.

Guys me ehn, i no dey do anything to please any man, i go do things wey i no sey i fit do. If i fit send i go send, if i not fit send no man go beat me.

I'm open to critics you can say whatever you want to say, but the message has been passed. And for the guys back here, please guys be on your guard, don't be disforgot because of what the people back home say, so called friends and family members and what nord.. When you were suffering to take yourself abroad, were they there with you? When your mum didn't sleep at night or your dad was suffering running here and there to look for money to send you abroad, were they there with you? No!, and now you are in abroad they kept expecting you to do something for them.

No my dear, don't displease yourself to please others. Remember you can never ever sort all the problems back home. Even in the bible its written 'man born of a woman is full of problems', so no matter how hard you try you can never sort all the problems, so just do what you can do and leave the rest to God. I just wanted to say this off my mind so i would be free.''
