I Want To Live In Nigeria

I am amazed at the way people rate their country as if they have another one? As if the country is proud to have them as citizens? To all of you who get "lucky" to get visas to go out of Nigeria and then speak bad about the country Nigeria - I say sorry - who wants you here anyway - go find another country to live. We patriots are okay and we love our country. Please visit and live here if ever you want.

I have lived in the UK for only four years and I have decided to go back to my country Nigeria, nothing is as sweet as home.

Yemmy.

Hold up people!

Lets quit talking about Nigeria like its a dump.
I didnt have mosquito problems while i was in nigeria
and robbers never came to my house or houses of most people i knew.
So lets stop generalising certain things.

LMAO 
U got me there, but hey com'on u know i was joking 

Nigeria aint that bad men!

I came to learn so that i can go back and better Nigeria.
They practically dragged me to the Nigerian airport before i agreed to leave for the UK. 

ha i c .

This is a wonderful thread
am just rolling around with laughter

Please give us more dark humor about Nigeria.

Nigeria has many faces, it really depends on where you go, I am due for a trip to Nigeria, I'll go to Abuja and Calabar, I have been to Lagos and I don't like it. Lagos is not Nigeria in totality. The experience of people living in Abuja, Calabar, Jos etc is not the same as many living in Lagos (with a few exceptions).

Its not as if everywhere is like Aba or the ghettoes of Lagos. Yes there are many challenges, the same challenges that Nigerians tend to turn a blind eye to when going abroad to places like NY, LA, ATlanta, London, South Africa, all places which have crime problems, but we deal with, because anything outside is ALWAYS better.

I understand that Nigeria can be every trying place, but you go to the city or state that best suits you, simple.

Can you imagine saying Nigeria is crime ridden, go to South Africa, all this with the full knowledge that South Africa is a murder capital, but ofcourse if we are rational its not the WHOLE of SOUTH AFRICA, but we don't give Nigeria the same fairness.


Anyhoo, I suppose people's points are from actual experience, but everyones is not the same.

I don't see what is so ghastly about living here,

Or even visiting here,

I went to Nigeria last year of June to visit my so called adopted family. I loved it there, the hospitality is wonderful. People are so nice & friendly except for the police on the road that would asked money from drivers. But I guess same in other parts of the country. But my experienced going there I have no complain. I would still loved to go back to visit inspite of all the bad things we see on the news about kidnapping & all. I am mainly enjoying the company of the people I loved & its culture. I adjust myself to their life style,

shut up - it is the other way round, fool. People want to come back home to live, not the other way round.
