All great points.

But one thing that will shock you is how asleep many Africans are to how fortunate they are - so many of them think that it is an achievement to (permanently) emigrate to north America or Europe.

Everything you need to build a wonderful society is in Nigeria, if only the people had more regard for their own environment .

if we can have good and God-fearing leaders here, Nigeria is a good place to live in. "when the righteous rule the people rejoice, but when the unrighteous rule there is cry here and there.

unless you are sure you will be an upper class citizen, better park well and stop whining. we have REAL issues here, not bs about gmo and materialism.

are you ready to be responsible for your own energy. and your water and your security? do you know that you and your family will be a target of kidnappers and you will have no choice but to pay the ransom? are you ready to be ripped off by private hospitals ? are you ready for traffic holdups where you will be robbed? i can go on forever.

all these quasi patriotic rants of pampered americanas are always annoying

Re: 10 Reasons Why I'm Leaving America And Moving To Nigeria by Nobody: 1:11pm On Mar 15, 2015
Glamrock:
1. The food - GMO this and that. Unhealthy foods and seasonings giving us cancers and diabetes. Keeping people sick through foods. A science study has shown that African Americans will be extinct in America in 100yrs or less just from the food alone.

2. Weather - 9Months of cold weather and 3months of warm weather. I hate being cold I feel home sick. This is not my natural habitat. I need the sun 24/7. I need all my vitamin D intake smiley

3. Floride - in our drinking water. We can not escape it. keeping our Pineal glands decalcified. Same thing Hitler used on his holocaust victims before he exterminated his whole camp, but that's another story..

4. Language - I want to learn traditional African languages. I want to hear it and learn to speak it. Whether it be Hausa, Yoruba, igbo, basic pidgin etc.

5. Culture - here we are not taught anything prior to slavery. It wasn't until about 4 years ago when I finally learned about the truth. About my cultural history. I knew I was of African decent, I just didn't know anything else. Anything we are shown about Africa is the poverty and wars. They really keep the greatness of the culture hidden. Probably to keep us from wanting to come back because now that I know what I know I'm in love with where I came from and who I truly am. I'm 27 now with an almost 9yr old daughter. She deserves to see, learn and live her true culture. I feel so home sick embarassed

6. Materialism - so much technology so many distractions, It's nothing wrong with having nice things. People just need to realize because you have something someone else doesn't doesn't mean you're superior . ThIs can happen anywhere. I just point it out because a lot of people think because this is the "western world" it's better. We can not become robots lost in technology and materialism we just can't. We are human beings.

7. Roots - I have every right to want to come back it's my home too. I hate hearing people say I wasn't born there. What does that mean? Had my ancestors not been STOLEN I would have been born there. I am of African decent. I take pride in Africa. I'm no invader. Doesn't matter where I was born I am a child of the sun.

8. Spirituality - this is a spiritual move. Peace of mind. When The ancestors speak I listen. I know you have Christianity and Islam but I really would like to see and learn more about African traditional religions.

9. Development - I think it's time for not just me, but majority of African Americans to take our knowledge and skills back to the motherland to contribute to the continents development. Why does the world Rob Africa and then eat without her?. you are a developing country soon You wil. Have all the things you think is so great in the western world. Your resources are RICH! Just be patient

10. I think you knew this was coming. The main reason of all. INEQUALITY / RACISM
I am so sick and tired of being treated different because of the color of my skin. I am sick of watching these white people kill my people and get away with it just because whites are dominant . It's Not right. How. Long do we have to fight for freedom? We are still fight after 400+ yrs Sometimes I can't even sleep in my bed at night because I'm wondering who's next or what's going to happen tomorrow. I'm sick of being seen as less than an animal. And it's so normal here a lot of people just ignores it! I can't its an insult to my soul. I can't take it I am not free.

Now believe it or not I just gave you 10. If I told you every reason I'd be writing all night. I'm use to being discourage about this big decision I've chose in my life. So please don't Comment telling me why I should stay here and shouldn't come there. Especially if you never been here. Its different when you live here. Every body here is not rich and everybody is not living like celebrities. Out of 43million African Americans only about 1% is really living that way. I just want the truth to be told because I read all the time about Africans wanting to come here because they think it's better here, and we have it so great. We are in a constant war here. You are blessed. You are children of the sun.

You highly welcome & have choosen the right path in the right direction to freedom & liberty,i think Nigeria with 250 ethnic groups & over 500+ indigenous languages would shed more light to your curiosity about Africa.

Babe, you can come but please keep your American passport so that when you face the real Africa, you'll have somewhere to go to, cos it's obvious you've never been to any African country and you might not find it easy to survive here. But who knows you might actually succeed here!

You are brave. You have taken the right decision but at the wrong time undecided.

Africa and Nigeria in particular is not a place i will advice anybody to visit at this period of election. Every body is living in fear because nobody is sure of what is going to happen in the next hour.

Election is by the corner pls stay where you are... After the election when power must have CHANGED hands, then you can come.

Let me assure you that nothing will happen. A few dope heads will make trouble and get silenced by the trigger happy boys. Then a lull when america hopes Nigerians will mutiny. But we are cowards and hungry so no one is ready to lead the mutiny, life gradually settles and the circle starts all over again.

As for OP, let your mind lead you. For who i am , i could never and have never been able to stomach second classism so your western world is a no-no for me.

May God guide your steps whatever you choose to do.
