grin grin hater. unlike all these people i do love nigeria. i had a tremendous time there. my memories of naija are filled with joy. i had tonnes of good friends. i made acquaintances for life. the food was great. the only thing i hated was the heat but then you get used to it, or just buy baseball caps and shades.

Hmmh, you sound so bitter, and full of bile. Not everyone will share your views.
Bitter? You are wrong there. Just pointing out the truth in fake living, a butterfly mistaking itself to be a bird should be told the truth.

But how can you speak for others? You can only speak for yourself. Everyone will have different memories of Nigeria, and home means different things to different people.

Home will always mean many things to anyone, till the truth hits them in the face and they are forced to eat their words. Then they come back and face the real 'home'
ask those ibos who ran back during sharia riots or abiola riots.

Nigeria is the best place to live on earth IMHO. Yankee and Jand  become boring when one stays there beyond 2 weeks. They are only good for short holidays and shopping.

God Bless Nigeria

i strongly concur with this post. yankee and jand are only sweet if you are into boozing or smoking weed. thats the only excitement in that part of the world. it revolves around bars or pubs. once you get past that age of doing those things ? it becomes boring. that is the age when people start craving the cohesive community togetherness of naija. good post

19 years abroad? Congrats, have you started growing natural curly hair yet?
Re: Do You Regret Moving Abroad? by Nobody: 10:55pm On Nov 12, 2010
I wanted to leave when I was younger like everyone else. But as I aged, abroad lost its appeal to me. Call me what u will, I'm someone who cringes anytime I see black people abroad posing unabashedly infront of a landmark or impressive display a white man built with his brains, sweat and toil. I will live in Africa and will die in Africa. Lets roll up our sleeves and do what needs to be done to propel the black race. Africa is home

People need to ask themselves these question:

Have I really achieved my dreams abroad?

The bitter truth is that 85% of Nigerians who moved abroad [ including the ones born in Europe and North America ] are not finding things easy. A good number of them have come to realize that though they have solid infrastructure all around them and have access to food and good healthcare, they are not really fulfilled. They can't boast of having quality savings in their bank account and only live on their wages. Though most Nigerians in Europe and America have access to a lot of opportunities, only about 25% are making good use of them. No one would love to come and wash his or her dirty linen on Nairaland. However, we all know where the shoe pinches us sad sad sad sad

On the other hand, a few Nigerians are doing well in their spheres of influence smiley smiley smiley. These are the ones that are entrepreneurs or are in the academia or are brilliant professionals. I have also observed that many Nigerians abroad are not interested in acquiring technical skills in Plumbing, Electricals and wiring, roofing, painting etc. Artisans make a lot of money abroad but many Nigerians are ignorant of these technical careers.  The issue of having 'legal status' is hampering the progress of many Nigerians abroad and we are generally not supportive of one another cry cry cry  

Are you fulfilling your dreams abroad?

I will never leave naija, unless in a coffin. The type of opportunities I jam everyday is surprising. My tap root is digging deeper into naija and making it impossible to leave. For those outside, goodluck.

If I had moved 'abroad' like some of you shysters,  i would probably have convinced myself too that I live the better life.
but, I would always regret that I couldnt/wouldnt make a good life at Home
and I would never speak ill of my fatherland

emi o ni fi owo osi juwe ile baba mi

think about it, shysters
