Amberon1:

please, which country? Ist travel was Europe and it was a very very nice experience. The people loved Africans. They loved that we could speak their language ( even though not fluently). The place was very welcoming and they sometimes gave us free foodstuff at the market and free rides to wherever we were going. I remember one particular woman who welcomed me into her house when my electricity was out. I needed to charge my phone but my charging port wasn't really good. She tried all available sockets just to ensure it was charging. She then began gisting me (in their language) about all her kids who were now married and were in other countries. She gave me nice fruits and even made coffee for me to drink as it was Winter. That was the day I ate the best fruit known to man. That had to be the fruit Adam and Eve ate, it was heavenly.

School was so much fun too, friendly lecturers, friendly secretary. Good learning environment. No stress, no lecturer failing you unjustly. First day of snow we all went out, played in the snow for hours taking lovely pictures.

I remember the first day we went to school without a guide. We all stopped at the wrong train station, got lost, asked for directions but due to the language barrier we were given the wrong directions so we ended up at the American embassy instead. Going back home was even worse. On our way we were already lost not knowing what train station to alight when we met a Nigerian who claimed to have been there for long. He gave us wrong directions again and we ended up lost again. We then decided we trek until we see road signs that show we were going in the right direction. That was when one of my friends sighted a saloon where she had been to a few days earlier. It was owned by a Nigerian and she gave us the proper direction home.

I had many wonderful experiences including signing authographs because some of them had never seen black people before.

My experiences cannot contain even a whole book so I'll just stop here.

Second country was UAE.

It is when you leave this country that you'll realize that Nigeria is worse than hell fire.

LarryBee1k:

Nigeria will reach there one day.

I have travelled to 196 out of 197. The only country I have not travelled to is نيجيريا


Which figure of speech is this

Mississippi ? anyone flying the Confederate flag scares me but I took my family to Biloxi back in July. Nice place but I dont plan on ever living down south ( maybe Texas).

It's all good tho

life in joburg and SA is very fine. Yes there are jobs for professionals. If you ace your studies,companies will want to hire you even before you finish your schooling. The roads are top class,24hrs power supply,environment is clean. Fact is, until you come to south africa, you won't rsalise that the only difference between SA and countries like germany or france is that there are millions of black people in SA. I work is SA and also studying law right now. There are thousands of nigerian professionals here in SA like doctors,nurses, engineers etc.

Krucifax:
Countries I've been to include:
U.S
Canada
France
Germany
Holland
Thailand
Ghana
A few other countries( via transit so doesn't count)
U.K where I live currently and Naija (Obviously).

Generally what most people have already said is true. Nigeria is generally speaking the worse location of all of them. There's no denying or lying about it.
Nigeria is in most considerations of comparison just worse. And it's not just Nigeria but Nigerians.
It's hard to explain till you have travelled and spent at least 1 month abroad.

Nigerians are very different from most human beings on the planet. Most of our qualities are negative ones. That's why most people are wary of Nigerians.
What we do have is strong will,resilience and toughness. We are also very ambitious people. The only problem is that the ambition is chased by most to the detriment of others and their environment.

To put it another way 90% of the world's population would refuse to come and live in Nigeria if given the opportunity. While I'll argue that 90% of Nigerians would leave Nigeria if given the opportunity.

Having said all that though I speak from a position of previlege having been born in the UK myself. I appreciate not every family have the opportunity. If that is the case I'd say do your best and work hard.
Find a skill set or trade that isn't entirely dependent on government or employer support and slowly build yourself.
Despite all the flaws ,I still want to return to Nigeria and even have property back home. Because home is where the heart is despite all the dollars or pounds. That's something only time and experience can teach you.

lightwind:
I had loved to be in Australia or Sweden.

Dex4:
With that population ratio, we are simply in deep shit!

[q1uote author=EVILFOREST post=71671240]
Do you mean LIFE outside the BIBLICAL HELL....?
Please for your Information, Nigeria shouldn’t be compared to AUSTRALIA, CANADA, USA, NORWAY, SWITZERLAND, UK...not even Sweden, China, Japan etc because it will be a sin to do so.

Compare Nigeria to countries that KICK STARTED with us same time.
Countries like Ghana, South Africa, Malaysia, Singapore, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Seychelles, Cape Verde, Namibia.

In summary, ALASKA a state in the US is bigger than Nigeria....meanwhile the population of the US is 310 million while ours is 180million.
Are we not blessed...??

Smh

I was also like this until I arrived Canada.

Rilwayne001:
I've never traveled out of the country, but I'm sure most people on this thread saying rubbish about this country are cankerworm. Fair enough, the country isn't doing well, but the exaggeration by these folks is obnoxious. Besides, I don't ever think there can be anywhere that can be better than home. As terrible as the country is, it is our home.

Omololu001:
I've been to a lot of west and southern African countries. Though I love Africa but life is so good in Malaysia and Australia.

Where I live in Kuala Lumpur, I do pay just #2,500 for gas every month,you will use gas any how you want,and at the end of the month,nah just #2,500

Walahi we dey suffer gidi gan for Nigeria.

wunmi590:


Honestly, it is so bad, and at that amount thousand of graduate would still be begging and praying to have that amount as salary.

9ja083:
Nigeria is only good for the rich. If you are rich in Nigeria, you only travel out of the country for relaxation or holidays.
If you doubt it ask our politicians.
They make their money and convert their street and apartment into the America you see on TV.

Shortyy:

You're not my God.

Kristina22:
Brazil.

Stayed there for a year. Electricity, good roads, functional transportation system. Brazil has it all. Nigeria does not even come close. However, the rate of violence was something I never prepared myself for. Never in my life, not even in Nigeria did I fear for my life until I got there. On one occasion, thieves shot at us.

Also, the racism was something else. There was a sort of segregation in the classroom. Anyway, mine was still child's play compared to what some of my colleagues experienced.

I won't even consider living there. A colleague said Brasil is the closest place to hell. I totally agree.

Ah, did I forget the LGBT crew. Remember the first time I saw two guys kissing in the bus without a care. My reaction was something I won't forget

MajorJeffery:
I'm struggling with the air I breathe here, so polluted. I've missed my way twice now because I find it hard to perfect my Korean language over the years. Damn, you hardly see anything written in English.

Ajala, so, you've been in SA for over 3 years and you're still planning to jump to another zone. When you reach there, you will jump elsewhere again. Instead of you to ask your village people where they kept your goals so you can go grab once and for all, you keep jumping from place to place searching for goals that are not lost. At your age, your mates don already dey settle down for one place, you still dey jump upandan
