it will not take a lot, putting myself in order and planning well, after visiting Nigeria often and asking myself the hard question, it will really not take much

   Visiting Nigeria and spending remarkable time with families and friend is ok, but moving back permanently is another thing. I'll consider that when the country will become stable and its standard will be compared with those of the west otherwise, i'll have to obtain some personal sub-machine guns for security purpose.
   I already own a riffle in Nigeria, but the riffle is not a match with Nigerian terrorists (armed robbers) AK47 types

@ topic

It would take me feeling I have a good chance of making it in naij - a solid job/business to create most of the comforts I need to live a good lifePLUS a real opportunity to make a difference in my small corner.

@ Osisi

when you are old and grey you go require 1,000 different medicationsthat is when you will most likely NOT move to naija. Too fragile to change and cope with all the gra gra again.

I give myself till 50If I'm not there by then, I don't think I'll ever move back fully.

@ OMO IBO

what of people wey no get 'papers' like me?  Undecided we no fit comment?

Over my dead body! Will only visit there since my parents are still alive.  But thank God they have been given permanent residency in the states.  That completes the migration process for my immediate family members.  The whole place can be swept into the gutters surrounding it for all I care.

Useless country full of thieves!

If they like, let them have a complete spiritual and physical makeover, the sad memories of the wickedness of Nigerians can never go away.

May God forbid bad thing I say!

Who wants to live in a country made up of generational dullards from some "Bukiepoly" for crying out loud?
