The OP is a troll. He's not a U.S naturalized citizen as claim. He claims he has been in the States for just 5years whereas to become a naturalized citizen of America one must be a resident for 10years from the day they secured residence permit.

Again, in one of his comments sometime in 2013, he said he's on U.S B1/B2 visa and was seeking for information on how to secure a residence permit. So how did he become a citizen between 2013 and 2015?. Not possible.

He should just say he intend relocating back to Nigeria after his studies because life abroad is strenuous and thorny for illegal immigrants. If that is the case, it's a welcome development and the right thing to do.

When you finish your program,get a job in the US , garner some experience. Request your company transfer you to Naija. Some of these oil companies have offices in Nigeria.

Good luck cool

Una just like to dey open mouth. "Request your company transfer you to naija" like say na potato. There are tonnes of other Nigerians working in these companies. Na only you dem born wey na your own request dem go grant. The guy go join line. Plenty people dey line dey wait juh.

Whoever said you should not come back to Nigeria is only postponing your judgement day.I guess you are still single and that alone is an added advantage.In case you are willing to break barriers, i shall gladly provide tips on how to start something before you actually relocate back to Nigeria,i will give you references of people from America whom i have provided business consulting services to, i will show you their businesses and how they have survived the odds and will also tell you how to start a business that will not require a physical office at the initial stage.
Lastly,since you are a chemical Engineer, i will show you how to go into partnership that will not entail you putting any cash on the table.whenever you are ready mail me @ lekanolanite@gmail.com

there are so many ways he could have become naturalized within that timeframe.. i am not arguing with the B1/B2 part but i know that people get U.S citizenship via different routes. my friend's father is a citizen and they just did a dna test and homeboy became a citizen within months.

Good morning everyone, I am an American naturalized citizen and currently a studying chemical engineering in the United States. My plan is to relocate to Nigeria after the completion of my program (plus an MBA) with the aim of working in a top oil and gas/petrochemical firm, as life in the U.S to me is "monkey dey work baboon dey chop".

Please I need your candid advise whether relocating to Nigeria is something reasonable. By the way I used to live in Lagos and Ibadan, I left Nigeria about 5 years ago so I pretty much still have a feel. Please Engineers in the house and my honorable people, I need your advise. Thank you.

If you dont have a choice job lined up or many millions of Naira saved up, then its not a good move... To suffer without in US, is easier than to suffer without in Nigeria... You may feel like baboon status in USA, but there are much worse things in Nigeria if you dont have something worthwhile lined up already... Nigeria has an excess of US and European educated people there looking for the same opportunities as you..
It will be a competition nigerian style and thats not easy...
Meanwhile, those who have family and friends connected to the right people in the right industries and business, they are walking out of polytechnics in rural states of Nigeria and taking all the lucrative positions...
US is not that bad even under the worst conditions... Nigeria Na Die even in less than the worst conditions... shocked

In 2013, you claimed to have a "visiting visa" to US.

In less than 2 years (2015), you are already a naturalized U.S. citizen planning to relocate to Nigeria.

You better get your story right.

I suspect that unemployment and idleness are playing games with your brain.

Re: About Relocating To Nigeria From The United States by adekole: 5:27pm On Jun 16, 2015
If you do not know the right top folks (Powerful Nigerians) who are willing to give you a soft landing in Nigeria, it will be a waste of time. There are tons of other Nigerians from UK and US hopelessly walking around just like the ones that went to Unilag. In Nigeria, it is mostly never about what you know or your education level, but all about who you know.
No doubt, home sweet home, but you must be very careful and do your homework before you make your move. Nigeria is not what it used to be.
Most of the people that relocated from UK or US have already returned back, with a promise not to ever return.

You must also think about weak security, senseless system, brainless people, failed infrastructure, poor medical system, extremely expensive or weak education for your children and more than everything else Family DRAMA. If you are not ready to face all these things, I will advise you to get yourself a good job and enjoy a peaceful life style in USA. Home is where you're free and have a peace of mind. Nigeria is not going anywhere, you can always relocate when things on ground start making sense.

Good luck!

Dude, nostalgia is a marafaka; bad as it seems in the States, trust me, it's a hundred times worse in Naija...don't head to Naija unless your job is guaranteed or if you're planning on setting up a business (but then you can't leave Nigerians to look after your investment)...ultimately, my advice to you is to stay put where you at and let the nostalgia pass, when you make money go set up something for your fellow Nigerians

I would advise that you do it in phase - taste the waters before relocating down fully. Come spend like between 3-6 months at a stretch and see if you can cope from the 'withdrawal syndrome' the movement will throw at you.

Like someone commented here, there are lots and lots of people like you ....its no longer automatic that because you schooled abroad you get a job immediately, so be ready for competition.

In coming back, your state and location of residence would determine how long or how soon you many want to run back home grin - If you decide to stay on the Lagos Island (Lekki, VGC area) be ready to cough out millions in rent (depending on your choice of building) or if you stay on the Mainland and work on the Island (where most oil companies are located) be ready to sleep less at night or spend more time in traffic.

Did I hear you studied Chemical Engineering? That means you might want to go to Port Harcourt where the action is? Well good but be ready with your ransom money in an escrow account just in case grin

Don't be discouraged shaaa ....there's the good side too - all those nice nice places you love visiting for fun or eating out, are now here hustling grin - only McDonalds still de form shaa. We have KFC, Dominos Pizza, Nandos you name it. For clothings, you have them here. If you still de feel like 'only bought in US stores' kind off ....we got parcel shipping companies here that can do you the magic grin

The babes grin .....we de shaaaa ....be ready to buy us Moet (osho free ones de shaaa but ...you know na) kiss

All the best man.
