Some Nigerians are very superstitious when it comes to Japa affairs. Some are afraid of being in an environment whose language they don't understand while some are scared of the cost of living and some are uncomfortable about their safety in their new location.

Let's talk, what scares you the most about relocating abroad?

Racism.
Imagine no one wants to talk to you because you are black.


Many of the men here think if they go there they will make friends easily. That's a lie

Let's practice...

We are gonna use Man A and a White lady as an example.

He is walking toward a while lady to start a conversation with her.


White lady: Who is this person gravitating towards me?

Man A: Hi, how're you doing?

White lady: Are you sure you are okay? Should I call the authorities on you?

Man A:. He says to himself, shaiii, I think say na so e go easy oooo...

Gun violence.
Make person no dey grocery store for night,.make person no come dey do shoot on sight or catch heartless stray bullet

Cold!

Racism!
At that point in time you'll feel what an average Hausa aboki feels when he comes to the city side.

LordIsaac:
Cold

Cold ke? There are warmers that are run on gas available almost everywhere but racism? Its a creepy thing, not many people get over it

Racisms and the new environment will be bored. You can't do anyhow you like because u are a stranger.

Fufu will no longer surplus and cheap as it is here.

Not sure if it will be available self.

Bills

For most guys, na hook up girls, baba Ijebu kiosk and those satchet ogogoro dem go miss pass

Loneliness and cold.

Settling in to a new culture and way of life.

For instance, in Nigeria, a man is responsible for most of the bills in the house. In Europe, both couple share bills. The man is also expected to assist in house work but may be cut some slack. Men will always be men. Some men are even househusbands.

Cost of accommodation is another worry. The best way to reduce this is not to stay in major cities. For instance, in England, no just near London. Rather go to some other city or town. Even in Birmingham which is the second largest city in England, rents can be half as much as that of London.

In America, keep away from states like California which are expensive. Rather target Texas where accommodation is much cheaper.

Their way of life, LGBTQ, binary and non binary,etc and how they are forcing it down the throat of others and introducing it to kids.

- Starting all over
- Racism. How free can I ever be in a place that is not mine or at best where can only become mine based on a few pieces of paper they give to me. Anytime things don't go the way the indigenes want it, they tag me Nigerian born.....
- Cold
- Fear of not being able to be hard on my children when I am supposed to be. I mean, the concept of "no right or wrong" doesn't cut it for me.

Holly Gram If I can't smoke my WEED in any uncomplicated BUILDING freely..

I'm doing great in Nigeria, on a bad day I could earn upto 100k daily. The fear of starting afresh, earning minimum wage for a long time b4 I start making it scares the sh*t out of me.

Please if you can put me out of my misery


2- The fear of my unborn children losing their culture and heritage.


PS: please don't ask what I do

But Nigerian culture has gone south too. Look at ill-trained kids all over the place and their chicken-head parents who should have no business raising kids in the first place.

Our culture is gone too, bro, so find another excuse


Anyway, make I shaperly answer for our resident urchins sha : It's the fear of losing their agberoism, laziness and penchant to gleefully support evil in a world that won't tolerate it.

This sounds so true to you until you truly get there to know the real gone!

The fear of becoming an 8th class in a strange culture/society/environment.

The experience wasn't palatable at all.

1st class - Female citizens that are not brown in color
2nd class - Children of the above citizens that are not brown in color
3rd class - Dogs and pets
4th class - Male citizens that are not brown in color (including the fathers and husbands/ex husbands of the 1st class citizens)
5th class - gay, lesbians, non binary and every other rubbish out there.
6th class - Immigrants that are not brown in color
7th class - Citizens that are brown in color
8th class - Africans of all shades of brown. (This is where majority of you will belong)

For me, it's racial abuse.
