"Africa is bad","Africa is this ","Africa is that", What have you done about it? No matter where you run to - it will never be your home,they will never accept you and you'll always face racism.

I still stand by my word, Africa rewards hard work. If you want me to give you examples I will.

Finally,quit discouraging people who are willing to relocate. White people live here and they never complain. What is your own sef?

Africa reward thieves and look down on honest hard working people.

Your ignorance is bewildering. Re-read my post and you will see I used Nigeria as a reference.

I will ignore the ad hominem, but here is a re-quote of your statement.

angiography:

Africa is bad...no need to window-shop...

This is a definitive statement, its not vague in its inherent structure. If you would say ''many/most countries in Africa is bad'', you might have a point.

Using Nigeria as a reference doesnt erode it. Africa is not bad, it only depends on the corner of the fence you are standing. There are countries in Africa far better than countries in Europe.

For a human being to be happy in life at least 3 things must be present, namely we must love the job we do, be in loving relationship as well as be close to friends and family. Once these have been achieved be reluctant to upset the equilibrium because it might be downhill from there

Lol...kindly quote me the countries in Europe that re worse than African's. Even Romania is better than south Africa. Ain't gonna argue with u again tho...google is ur friend.



Apparently, there ain't any logic in ur argument. I posted figure, ure saying fallacies...quote the country the country with the highest GDP and compare it with the worst of Europe; Romania, Lithuania, Slovakia et al

What?!?! White people living in Nigeria and not complaining? First of all, th fact they dont complain to you does not mean they are not complaining to someone else.
In fact, i have read some blogs from Westerners who lived in Nigeria and boy oh boy what they have to say about Naija is truly humbling and shows how far we still have to go.

I came to the states to study, years later I extended my stay

Got married have young kids, but the urge to go back to Africa is daunting( I don't come from Nigeria but one of the African countries)

I went home for vacation and couldn't help the feel that I had lost a part of my life my dreams and my desires, lost relatives, missed part of my siblings growing up, missed the weather and such.
I have a feeling that

Staying back in Africa and impacting lives is worthwhile than enjoying the convenience of amenities down here.( I'm finishing a second degree and am ready to go) hubby is not on board with such, but he is willing to let me go try the experience.

To me over ten years in this country is overdue, I don't really enjoy all the drive through and other amenities in the west.

On all my visits to my country I have not had problems staying in a remote village trekking places and such. I like the exposure, experience and education I have had overseas, but I think making overseas my permanent home is futile.

Anyone ever felt such a strong desire to go back home?

I'm sorry for you. You think the Nigeria you left then is the same Nigeria you are coming to meet. I'm not taking in terms of your village but rather Nigeria as a whole. After you have queued for fuel a whole day without getting a drop of it, your sense go change.
