TheHerald:
Acclaimed filmmaker, Femi Ogedengbe who recently made headlines after it was revealed he is currently working as a security guard in the United States of America has lambasted Nigerian leaders past and preset, and threatened to deal with them on sight should he spot them in the North American country.

Ogedengbe visibly annoyed by comments from young Nigerians over the articles in the social media which seemed to belittle his current occupation in the USA, said that Nigerian youth had gotten it wrong and he had not in fact fallen from grace. He said the security guard job came loaded with benefits that the average Nigerian youth may never experience in Nigeria.

He angrily blasted the state of affairs in the country.


“How I wish they could park planes in Ojuelegba, or Holy Ghost in Enugu. Let them tell them that ticket is free to America. You will see how many people will leave that shithole. Nigeria is a country I am sorry to say is a shithole. If it is not a shithole why is everybody running away from that place. The only people making money, thriving in Nigeria are politicians, ritualists and fraudsters.”

“I left Nigeria at 46 and look at me now, my wife and children are better for it. Now we are beginning to live like human beings, back in Nigeria we lived like animals. It is a shithole country.”

“Do you know how many Nigerians are working as security guards in USA, We were 63 people. Graduates, great celebrities, musicians, people with 2, 3 masters degree? I thank God we are working in America as security, it is better for our relatives back home.

“Even gardening job here in America, I will do it as long as it puts food on my table and ensures a brighter future for my family. Unlike in Nigeria where you are doomed.

“All these evil leaders from Atiku to Buhari to Obasanjo. All of you, you are evil, step aside. Let people like Donald Duke, Pat Utomi, Fela Durotoye take control of the affairs of Nigeria.

“Why do you think people are trekking to Libya to go and perish in the Mediterranean sea? Because there is no hope in that country. You people are a shame. All the leaders. God punish you. How I wish I will see somebody who is a leader and you come to America, you say you want to speak to the Nigerian community. May God not let me come near any of you in this country because if I come close to you, one slap will make sure you know how angry Nigerians are. I am not afraid of any repercussions.”

Trust Nigerians... Suffering and smiling ( The great Fela) saw it Long Long Long Time ago.. If u have the means to get a better life out this country. Run .

I can feel the pain and frustration but read between the lines, you would get the story.
I can't for the life of me , be a second class citizen anywhere in the world. No matter the benefits.
I'd rather be a local champion in my country than be subservient in another man's country. Forget the talk about 'stooping to conquer', there is what is called self esteem.

I completely resonate with this dude... but, the problem with Nigerians is that they're too 'Nigerian' to see anything good. Bunch of FOOLS! Just imagine, they're making fun of someone innocently and honestly making a living while they revere the thieves (Politicians) and morally corrupt Nollywood entertainers. You'll see them come and start praising Iyabo Ojo for buying a Range-Rover et al... Where the hell do they come by such amount of money. God bless you, bros!

Poor mentality breeds poverty... Poverty is a state of mind! undecided

Do You know how much security guards are making in Canada? I am writing an exam very soon so I can secure a security job. It is not the 10k they are earning in Nigeria. You can earn as much as 250k/300k Every two weeks just being a security guard. Who naija help. Nigerians will never ever understand till they are out of that country!

You're also falling into the mirage others fall into, ofcus the grass is always greener on the other side.
A common mistake many folks make is equating the face value of the dollar to the naira. No broh, don't do that. The naira is presently 365 to a dollar. Matter of factly, the daily stipends that unskilled workers earn is barely sufficient to lead a balanced life and have savings, considering all the bills that need to be paid. They only encourage themselves that they are happy cos they actually are living a better life relative to those in the shithole called Nigeria.

Are security men not human beings?

There's dignity in labor o jare

Why do people look down on security men who work hard, are not stealing the common wealth of Nigerians, and yet we celebrate people who had no savings before getting into power, and all of a sudden are controlling billions of dollars when they leave power?
The village people are really doing Nigeria strong thing o

Lol, we all don't need to blow trumpet on NL. I have seen things, first hand. Every person is different, we place our esteem on the pedestal which we want it to be, everyone can't have the same esteem.

Although you're right about the monetary aspect, but at the end of the day will you be fulfilled in that role, knowing you can be so much more? It gets to a point when life begins to lose meaning because deep down, you are not happy despite the 200k fortnightly.
