If you travel out of Nigeria. You will understand why he did it. Forget this future hope stuff, naija only gets worse.

20 years ago, we sang "we are the leaders of tomorrow" guess what bro? Our president is 75-80 years old. The future leaders are jobless, suffering and smiling.


Guess who will be president from 2019-2023. Definitely nobody under 50 years.

To me the question of migration depend on a lot of things, and u are entitled to your own decision.
but what gets me annoyed is the bashing u guys keep throwing at ur motherland, when u all contributed to what it is 2day dere was a time wen electricity was constant, were jobs were available, where basic social amenities were on hand and the naira had more value dan the dollar, and gradually things started spiraling down hill.

something went wrong somewhere

America was nt always like that the mindset of the people had a lot to do with hw America became a world power now that u guys are nw rushing there.

what made America great was nt the leaders, but the people!!

And what made Nigeria from a promising vibrant country to the shambles it is today is the people?

A monster that has eaten deep in the fabric of our bleeped up society, a monster that has eaten deep into every Individual, every sector, a monster that has become a part of our life, a monster called CORRUPTION

Over 400 billion dollars stolen since independence and still counting, billions of dollars stolen every month, every sector, the federal government, the state government, the local government, the ministries, contractors, the private sector, the Judiciary, the law enforcement, Health sector, Churches, are all a bedrock of massive corruption.Trillions spend on electricity with nothing to show for it a meager 3000, while other countries are generating hundreds of thousandsThe allocations state governments and local government recieves that should have been used on boosting the economy of each state and infrastructure have all been stolen, Lagos for example is a bedrock of the highest corruption i have ever seen It economy is one of the best in africa due to massive IGR, but the infrastructures are one of the worst, decayed and rotting d problem of corruption in nigeria is nt d leaders.

its d people, we are naturally selfish, self centered, greedy, destructive its in our blood we were born with it, we all contributed in destroying dis country, we love corruption, we encourage it, we justify it and we are currently enjoying the dividend our religiousness doesn't help either cus we wallow in religion hypocrisy, so morrally we are decayed, religion wise decayed, society decayed and d same society will keep on producing fools as leaders.

WITHOUT THE CHANGING OF THINKING, MINDSET, CULTURE, HABBIT OF THE PEOPLE, NOTHING WILL EVER WORK.ITS IMPOSSIBLE TO BUILD STRONG INSTITUTIONS.

Change must come from within.....

Christianity that would have helped us has been abused and being turned into religion hypocrisy.



Now for those of you in diaspora before u come here and speak trash abt Nigeria, think, what did i do to bring abt a positive difference when i was here, in my own little way, was i right in my day to dealings, did i obey basic rules and order, what did i do to bring a positive change to my surroundings and my mother land.

Now for those in Nigeria, who are spewing trash here and abusing those who are trying to tell i from experience that the grass is nt potentially greener on the other side,

The thing is only a dumb, lazzy ass fool, who does nt think will say there is no opportunities for you to be the best u can be here

Nigeria with its unique environment and endowments all i see is potential upon potential, by looking at d pictures frank are posting alone, am already having ideas of more business opportunities alone.

Nigeria as developing country with a population of 180 million people is a gold mine of businesses opportunities for serious minded people sectors like

TRANSPORTATION (Its an industry worth billions of dollars)

MANUFACTURING

FOOD PROCESSING

SALES

ICT
ADVERTISING

ENTERTAINMENT

AGRICULTURE (The potential and opportunities in agriculture alone is mind boggling they are thousands, potential worth billions of dollars)

was reading abt how 3 million foolish, unproductive nigerians invested over 18 billion naira on a ponzi scheme, imagine if that money had gone into lets say agriculture alone.

there would have been tremendous effects

Myself as an example run a company founded by me that has investment in some of this sectors, and am comfortable and happy, i earn a 7 figure income monthly and i continue to invest more and expand and also lecture other also, i have people employed people under me and i try to be honest in all my dealings

now i have done 4 things

1. In my own way have contributed to the country's economy

2. reduced unemployment

3. make my own contribution in taxes.

4. reduce corruption on my own path and in my own environment.

All these at the age of 19

now what have you done for your country?

Conclusion: If you want to leave, leave but dont come online spewing trash abt your motherland and displaying an high level of ignorance.

Sometimes I don't blame someone like this. A lot of people don't enjoy anything as citizens of Nigeria. But I know there's hope for Nigeria. . . The more people wake up and hold politians and public office holders responsible for their actions, the better for us all.

We really need to spring up. . . Nigeria has great potentials with its vast population of hardworking and innovative citizens.

Just give us electricity in Naija, as in... South Africans will come and be washing plates here (no offence S/A).

Thank you Sir for one of the few adult comments here.

There are few places abroad where Blacks are not discriminated against. I can bet racism is far worse than the ethnic bigotry we exhibit here.

No matter how green the pasture might be abroad, the truth is, you would always be a second class citizen.

It shamed me when I saw 100s /1000s distinguished and rich looking people being shepherded like goats at the US embassy.

Things are bad here, but we residents should change our own lot. Whites are where they are today before they didn't run from their responsibilities. They stayed to figure it out and solve their own problems.

It makes me laugh when an engineer in Nigeria would travel out and rather be a janitor in the US.

I see a common misconception in your post. Do you know that the common janitor has a much better future than the engineer in Nigeria?
Do you know that when that janitor closes from work regardless of his shift he can even go home by taking walk, using a bicycle, or train or his car without fear of being rob, kidnapped or use for rituals?
Do you also know that, the maniac job can take care of his family as well as covered their health insurance?
Do you know that if he retires from that job, he will get his pension as of when due?
Do you also know that he won't be waking up at 4 am just too get to the office before 9am?

There are just many reasons that makes a man do what he did. It's not our place to condemn him for looking out for himself the best possible way. Our country is a mess and i tell you racism is way better than the ethnic and Religion violence experience daily. Compare the number of people killed because of racism and those killed by religious, ethnic or even herdsmen violence and tell me who will want such future for his child?.

Please am not rubbishing your post just trying to make you see the other side of the coin.

Until den wen we start pirotizing d country, bliv in ourself nd killing all sort of inferiority complex tinz ar goin to remain d xme. Remeber change begins with you. #GODBLESS NIGERIA #ISTANDWITHCHANGE #IREPNAIJA

Thank you Chief.

Nigeria is messed up, but even nearby Ghana or S/Africa don't have the kind of negative inferiority complex we have about ourselves.

If we all run away, white men won't come and help us develop our country. We have to do it ourselves.

Just look at all these American movies promoting the "American Dream"... if you play the US national anthem, most people don't know the words but instantly, you recognise it for what it is.

If I was president, every music video and every movie, you must include Nigerian flag or sing National Anthem at the beginning. Over time, the negative perception about Nigeria would change.
Watch Indian movies and you would never know it's the World's Rape Capital.

Read about World War 2 and the use of propaganda by both sides.

Yeah.....Constant Electricity alone will solve 80% of our problems

Proudly Naija.

EnigmaticEnigma:


Why do all these people talk as if Nigeria was created by their forefathers?

Guy, please have some common sense and don't make a conscious choice to be ignorant.

Nigeria was created by the British, you had no fvcking say. Get that into your brain.
