ogugua88: [size=13pt]Oops. To answer the question, I've been in the USA my whole life and will return to Nigeria within the next two years for another visit. A long-term goal is to open at least one clinic there when I finish school, but it depends on the state of Nigeria.[/size]

Mr knowitall.:


My mom is actually trying to open a clinical in Ado right now....and its not easy...in fact, the government are not making it easy for her at all....you might want to just save ur money....

Mishydoo: Weighing both points made (homebased and away)I have come to ɑ conclusion.ITS TIME TO ABANDON THE SINKING SHIP!I A̶̲̥̅♏ a fresh graduate from med school,one of d best in my class,am not about to waste away my future.so Diaspora here we go...!!!

Kslib:
See your mouth. It took the police 30 minutes to appear at the scene where a soldier was killed on a busy road for that matter WHILE in naija those two guys would have been dealt with before 25 seconds sef..

Mr knowitall.:


good story..but I dont believe you...

if you think that is story then you are definitely not in yankee...

ogugua88:

[size=13pt]No. I'm convinced that whatever knowledge Nigerians have of the US, especially in the village, is that people go abroad and pick money from money trees. A very bad preconceived notion of "everyone who is abroad is wealthy". I'll speak for myself. When we went home, our relatives, particularly those in the village, literally folded their hands and made us do and pay for everything. No hospitality; we stayed in a hotel. There was never any food. If we were lucky, we'd eat twice a day: breakfast at the hotel, and then a snack very late at night, at the hotel. If there was food at my grandfather's compound, it was paid for by my parents and prepared by us. Anything and everything, they demanded that we pay for it. The only person that had her arms open for us was my dad's distant cousin. His siblings got jealous, put their heads together and got four chickens for us to use to cook ofe akwu.

Another example. My parents went home last year to bury my maternal grandfather. Within 10 days of their arrival, they ran out of cash. She and her relatives decided which drinks and such would be provided at the burial. When it was time to pay, they all said they couldn't afford it and looked at my parents.

If anything, I've come to realize that diasporans are making their relatives back home lazy. The kind of lies and sob stories relatives tell to get their loved ones to send cash. A lot of potential for fiction authors in the village. O di egwu.[/size]

Mr knowitall.:

Billyonaire: Home? People still live abroad ? No comfortable Nigerian lives abroad.

MacLovington: Millions depend on the $20 billion from diaspora annually for school fees, food, clothing, medication/healthcare, funeral etc.

userlist: Always wanting people to come back home so that
they will have enough people to rob and maim.

You will never understand because you have been so debased by
your society and govt.
Go read my post again, I wonder were you got your education from.
My level of exposure can never be compared with yours.
Education has become so bad you cannot comprehend a simple writing.
No wonder your president can't properly read a written speech

Mr knowitall.:


ok cool..you not there am not there...so lets leave it as that....

ifebosco: you have to channel your anger to the political class,
not the poor mass that need your help.

Mr knowitall.:

Amya:

Lol. The Nigerians in diaspora who visit the country during festive seasons are the one that spoilt it for you. They way they flash dollars and want to live up to the image that American dollars grow on trees, who's to say people won't milk it.
Since they heard from the been-tos that America is the land flowing with milk and honey, who's to say they won't want to enjoy a little of that.

MacLovington: .

It's a lie. People just show a bit of generosity when on holiday. Remember most work and work, no time for fun in diaspora so letting your hair down a bit on hols is not "showing off".

The fact is if a person who had no good job goes to say Germany and returns 3 years later with an SUV, the perception is that "that poor chimezie of yeseterday is now rich".

@GooseBaba

Better go to the ER ... Your level of exposure to yeast infection is corroding your mental state of mind..you yarn opata I point it out for you... You still dey yarn opata..!

automaticcarzz: I have been living in the U.S since year 2001. I will be returning home when there is 24hr power supply. When there is good road network. When police are able to respond to calls within 5 minutes. When there is emergency health and fire response squad that respond to emergency within 5 minutes. When there is rule and order. When the police stop brutalizing the people they suppose to protect. When there is true democrcy. When the President stops harassing political opponents. When there is adequate security of lives and properties.

userlist:

I will never relocate fully because of greedy jealous fools like you.
My response was not directed at you but you felt it is your duty to respond
to it.
If you are smart you would have checked my earlier post where I stated that
I made a wrong move by moving my business to that backward country to educate and contribute
my quota, voila the greedy fools like you almost finished my entire enterprise.
What else do your sorry ass want me to do. Come back and give your sick head what is left.
Most of us that love that country with our heart try to help but most of you are so daft we cannot
comprehend y'all.
