gigfx: She was talking about her family, right? Thank God I no tell anyone say I wan travel, I dey chat with some people self as if say I still dey the con3. Apart from my parent and the guy taking care of them that I used to send money, I don't have to overwork myself because I wan please anybody for Naija. You are taking care of your parents but she's angry because her own family too is living good probably courtesy of her generosity. Is your own family not living good courtesy of you? My point is that she's seeking attention. Them think say the kind cold person dey suffer for here good for body. If not that our con3 dey messed up, wetin we dey find come this place. Should we now hail you for your decision to be discreet or pity you for where you found yourself? My point is that anywhere we found ourselves, be it Naija, UK or Canada has pros and cons. Personally, I don't envy people living and working abroad and I don't look up to them. Sometimes, I even ignored their calls (they tend to talk for long which is not my thing). 4 Likes 1 Share |

Sirianese: I'm telling you. They always want to be the only ones looking good. If another person looks good because of their 100 naira, it's lavishing. 2 Likes 1 Share |

1Sharon: Oh so you think or feel relatable to be called a criminal for no reason? Sometimes I wonder how people think, I wonder if you people know these guys opinion go farther than you think? I live in Canada and I’ve met people voice out their incorrect opinion about people, continent, tribe, life based on things they heard on the internet. Do you even know that custom officials and other security agencies gather information like this on the internet? They use it to make judgment about people moving from border to border. I just hope one day Africans would stop misusing internet. 3 Likes 1 Share |

CoronaVirusPro: You are still saying the same thing, you don't have to worth anything to live a good life. And of course, the irrational people among them will definitely complain about it because in their mind, it is their right to accumulate as much wealth as they can. Their societies has been programmed in such a way that governments takes care of the children and the old. If government can take care of your needs before you start working and after you stop working, is it a bad idea to work for them too in your active days? The reality is that, you can't have an egalitarian society with the mentality of an average African. 5 Likes 2 Shares |

Major7:She stopped because they were living well, she didn't say that they were always asking for more or that they didn't appreciate what she was doing for them or that they squandered her money she trusted them with. She was angry simply because they put their life in order, that's petty. 3 Likes 1 Share |

DivinegiftofGod: Even if she was wrong by over-generalizing, this your comment has FULLY JUSTIFIED HER. The bolded words are pure wickedness. How I wish that all diasporans can read this your comment, particularly the bolded words: it would really reset their brains. "Meagre $100", if saved and not sent to you ravenous wolves at home, over time, will grow into thousands and hundreds of thousands of dollars, which can actually help the sender to create better life for himself or herself rather than wasting it on ungrateful wicked recipients at home.

DivinegiftofGod:Thinking 100 dollars is like 100 naira is the stupid ridiculous thinking some Nigerians with entitled mentality from their family in Diaspora have. 90% of Nigerian diaspora in top western countries do not earn $5,000 /month after tax. That amount is like 80,000usd per annum before tax. Is $5,000 like 5000 naira in your warped thinking? Some of you will even start pressing calculator and converting to Naira like the individual will pay most of their bills with Naira. 5 Likes 1 Share |

How will you be talking to the whole Africa in that manner just because of the stupidity of your family. Be specific with your country and your state and don't be foolish. There are people in my local government who are far richer than the owner of you're company where you work and receive your little dollars don't be silly. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Major7:Because you must have proven to be reliable and honest to your friend. Many family members of those abroad want you to be welfare benefit officer that pays them monthly. Everyone I know abroad has opened businesses, shops and set up relatives but 90% fail at it. When you tell them in the beginning to apprentice under someone successful in the business first, wahala go come. You hear things like: those doing it, do they have 2 heads? Bros, I only asked for financial help, not ideas. Na money dey yab me sha. I have already worked everything out, yada yada yada. They want your money but not your ideas on how to succeed. You give them money, they open a shop and stock it, and a year later business dies. A year later, they will be saying those abroad don't help. What vexes me the most is that they will never admit you ever helped them. No matter how many times you set them up and they fail. Most Africans nor ready. Virtually everyone I know abroad has same story: from Ghana, CIV, Cameroon, 9ja, name it. 5 Likes 3 Shares |

1Sharon:Leave those struggling sissy men wailing in those videos, they are no different from ladies. The pride of an African man is in his ability to take very good care of his family and even community without grumbling. I speak as a pillar of many homes beyond my family and it gives me joy everyday knowing that I make positive impacts in the lives of many people. I don't care if they misuse my help or abuse it, I am doing it for the love of God and for the love of humanity and as a way of saying thank you to my God for helping me to succeed in life and not end up a pauper. Whenever I feel like the load is much on me, I look around and think about my mates still struggling to feed twice a day and those still job hunting and those toiling day and night without much result and I draw strength from there by thanking God that He gave me the grace and favor to be who I am and where I am. Only wicked people who mistakenly succeeded financially grumble about helping their family members and people in need. You think you are doing well financially by your own wisdom and smartness right? Pray you don't fall out of God or nature's favor, then you will realize that whatever you think you are today was only by God's grace and luck which some call destiny and not because you are smarter or wiser or more hardworking than others. 5 Likes 2 Shares |

yemmit90: What care does the government give to babies? Those benefits you will never qualify for because you are hardworking and already earning above the income bracket for such, and when you are old and no longer able to pay taxes, your house is foreclosed and you sent to a care home to die? What benefit are we really talking about? Does that exempt you from being soaked in debt at college, and have to pay up with 20-30 years of your post graduate years? Is that the life you supporting? Africans work for money and live within those means. We don’t buy debt and will always own. At old age, we are at rest to settle with whatever we worked for. People like Obi Cubana can never get broke again in Nigeria, but people like Chris Brown can go broke cos taxes will keep falling on them the moment they go broke. The western worn society is a redefined slave market. It keeps you in your toes till death, and at the end of the day, you own nothing, and another debt might even be secured for burial. Now they already planning to increase retirement age to 65-70 😀😀😀😀. Work till you hit the grave! |
