Why Nigerians Abroad Fail To Visit/return To Their Father Land by djyoungmoney(m): 11:08pm On Jul 31, 2016 |
We all have at least one family or Friend who is currently abroad, they might have been there for years or a couple of months for some. But there is this issue of why some of them don’t ever want to visit Nigeria their native land again. Well I complied some reasons which I feel is the cause of this. They have started a new family One of the major reasons why Nigerians travel to any other countries outside Nigeria is because they want become citizens.one of the fastest and safest ways is to get married to a citizen of that country. In the process of doing so they might have lied to the wife they left at home that they are single and just hoping they get the citizenship in other ways or they might have lied to the other new wife they weren’t married or had even given birth back at home. Travelling back home they know might expose them and make them loose on both ends so they always decide to stay back abroad. Living a Fake life Some Nigerians living abroad will even go to the extent of telling you they eat breakfast, lunch and dinner with the president of that country they are in and all other sort of lies just to make them look rich and comfortable to the people they left behind at home (Nigeria).In the real sense, believe me life isn’t even easy for them. Even an individual that’s living in Nigeria is better off. When the time comes for them to come home they tend to come up with stories about why they can’t come home but in the real sense they just haven’t become successful like they claimed. Fear of Spiritual Attack and Assassination The average Nigerian Believes once your status has been elevated a little then there is a threat to your life either spiritually or physically. Nigerians living abroad are not left out on this believe too and as a result they tend to have a rethink on visiting their native land due to the fear of Assassination or spiritual attack. Even the ones that eventually visit move around with entourages bigger than that of our president lool. Scammed someone close to them A family member or friend might have sent them some money to help in purchasing a car or some other things but they have scammed this family member or associate or close friend and didn’t purchase anything. Am sure you know an individual like that will have to think twice before he leaves that foreign land to visit Nigeria because of fear or repercussion of what he has done. Fear of starting new challenge Starting up something afresh can be more difficult than imagined. Some Nigerians have spent years abroad and have settled into that country they are. The fear of returning home to start another life sometimes discourages them to eventually come back. Said bye to the stressful life Na who no like better thing? We have to be honest, things are very hard and stressful in the country right now. Some of the people who have traveled out seem to be enjoying the quite easy and stress free life, even if for constant power supply alone. The thoughts of coming back to face the hassle and bustle of things around here will I must say scares them and so they tend not to even come around at all. Lost Hope in Nigeria Some Nigerians have traveled and have seen the better side of life and for reasons known to them, they think it’s totally impossible for their home country to attain the level which the country they are in now have achieved and so they totally forget about returning home .

It's simple. Most are illegal migrants who went on a tourist visa and overstayed. My cousin and her husband both went to USA for a party that hasn't finished since about 1year ago. Despite both being very educated, they can't get jobs as they are illegal. They keep dragging the illegal jobs with the Mexicans. Jobs I'm sure most of us will not do in Nigeria, even in these hard times. They can't come back home for fear of being seen as a failure. 3 Likes |

princey83: I can't. Why would I want to live in a situation where I can't open a bank account, get a decent job or set up a business, always hiding from the police, stress of being caught or worst still, to be rough handled and bundled on a plane. Some people can do that, not me. I had the option to follow somebody on such cases but I declined. I can't handle the emotional trauma. But I will be going this September sha. LEGALLY. 1 Like |

hhhmmm maybe because: - it aint cheap - they dont want to - it isnt their priorities in life - having been in Nigeria all their lives, they'd rather visit a new country - they dont miss Nigeria, one bit - technology makes it easy to connect with family and friends back home the list is endless... 1 Like |
