Moving can be extremely stressful and complicated, especially relocating to naija,
Please house, i need your candid advice on the relocation journey.
Just a brief history of myself, by Dec.2016 i will clock 49years and it will mark exactely 29 years i left nigeria for Germany
At 25 years i have already completed a 4 year professional training (Ausbildung ) Mechanical ENGG. (Maschinebautechnik.)

I worked for 25years non-stop in a large Auto Parts Design and Manufacturing company based in Stuttgart-Germany.
Back in january this year, we were informed that the Dept i specialized on will be moving to Eastern part of Europe for good.

As if i knew it was going to happen one day, i have already started planning my early retirement options back in nigeria.

I have already completed the 40 Rooms self contain apart. and all rented to students /low income earners annual income
I have decided to relocate to naija by Dec.2016 at 49. i have planned my relocation by investing more money in my Haulage
business and completing my other housing project.

The experience i want to share with you people is my extended family members in nigeria make too much demands.
Moving is indeed a challenging task. But then, i have property and business planned for it.
i was told by my Uncle that i stlll need to make more money to cater for extended family dependency since my 3 kids are
staying behind in germany, how realistic is that?

If you asked this question while GEJ was in power I would have said it is a nice decision, but it is not advisable for you to relocate now.

I don't think the exchange rate will look too favorable for you with 3kids in Europe. If everyone was coming back home it would be better financially. You may practically be working just to pay bills in Europe. It's a daunting task to maintain a family in Europe with legitimate funds from Naija.

tanx, the kids are grown, they have already some income while they study

Not a bad idea if you can set up a mech workshop to cater for the top German automobiles in Nigeria....the top ranges like mb,Audi,bmw,Porsche, volks since you are an auto mech

Location matters....its better if u are sited in lekki axis..vi/ikoyi and worse case ikeja central

Secretly relocate, and the extended dependent family don't have to know!!!!
If you keep handing out, they would simply keep taking. Learn to either say no or go incommunicado.

Bro talking from what i witnessed when my uncle relocated from London to naija at once in 2007 to established a printing firm, the firm liquidated although he's about to resuscitate the firm but he bounced back by importing containers with used vehicles & house hold items.
1. Know the nitty gritty of any business you want to embark on as regards to naija terrain, i.e don't use european ideologies in naija if u wanna survive & last in the business.
2. Don't relocate at once or else if u rush in u go rush out.
3. Test run any business of your choice before u invest heavily.
4. There is no way ppl will try to rake from u financially as a european returnee, just make sure is to the bearest minimum.
5. You can't do without artisans most of them are dubious & ain't truthful.
