You mumu o they pay 3500 monthly in the USA agreed do you know that a manageable apartment in the USA is around 1700 monthly, can you spend 600k as a doctor in Nigeria as accommodation monthly, they will pay tax utility transport what’s left? Next time think before you blow out you ignorance

an average apartment in Houston starts from $1100 per month, utilities like heater, gas, electricity is around $160 for more than 1 occupant in the apartment, stop listening to hearsay.

Compare that rent to what people pay in highbrow areas in Nigeria like Lekki, Asokoro, CBD suburbs, Ikoyi, Ikeja GRA, etc. Some pay NGN1,500,000 a year, divide it by 12. They also pay estate levies, security levies, buy water, etc.

No matter what, you can never compare a nurse earning $3500 a month in US excluding her overtime with a nurse earning NGN70,000 in Nigeria. At the end of the year, the American nurse will have more savings and personal investments than the one in Nigeria, so what's your justification


If you pay a Nigerian nurse a starting salary of NGN250,000 then she is at par with the American nurse when you consider the living cost you mentioned.


But you cannot compare a nurse earning $3500 monthly in the US excluding overtime with a nurse earning NGN100,000 in Nigeria today, don't be fooled

When they say Nigerian doctors, they mean the highly trained with decades of experience NOT doctor that just finished school yesterday.

Actually it includes all cadre of Doctors at various levels of clinical experience including newly graduated Doctors...Infact, junior Doctors are more williing to migrate than their senior colleagues.

Honestly, I think all workers including doctors, nurses, community health officers, and comunity workers should be well treated. Every worker wants to be adequately rewarded.

It all boils down to how much each of us wants from the same pie. What do those that allocated outrageous salaries to politicians base it on?

Productivities, needs, skills or unreliable natural resources income which price is dictated by buyers. We all blame everything on infrastructure but we refused to pay or train our engineers on these infrastructure since after Independence. We prefer to employ journeymen from overseas and call them experts in order to launder money.

So doctors, engineers, lawyers, iron workers, accountants, politicians etc lock horns on who should get more money from the same pie.

Nigeria will never develop if we compare our third world economy with USA and Britain, never with salaries in China, Russia, Sweden or Cuba.

Why are we training for USA or Britain when China, India, Russia or Cuba train for local needs?

Each of these countries have produced Nobel laureates in Sciences, what has our country produced?

When US President Donald Trump built a fence between USA and Mexico, it was meant to block Mexican from entering US, as we speak, strange and unprecedented things have happened in this period of Corona Virus, the government of Mexico is doing everything possible to stop US citizens from entering their country.

What goes around comes around, US citizens are destroying their own fence to enter Mexico due to increasing Covid-19 infections.

USA has more than 489,000 cases of Covid-19 while Mexico has less than 3,500 cases. US citizens are running away from their homes to be refugees in Mexico, this is a lesson, even a rich person can borrow a needle from a poor person.

Don't despise your fellow being because of where you are today.

When God bless you financially, don't build walls but expand your tables to accommodate the poor. Position is not possession.

Dreamers, Human being make up a country:- if Nigeria is worthless, it simple mean you are worthless. But yet Igbo's still draw fund from federal government purse right? then they must be the same as Nigeria. They still do business inside the Zoo They must be stupid more than animals. They are still living even in the worst zone of northeast? They're foolishness must be so high.

What was US response during Africa and Nigeria's Ebola crisis? they refused giving us an experimental drug.. When Boko haram killed hundreds daily what did US do? they refuse weapon sales to Jonathan because we rejected Gay and Lesbianism.

PayPal and Ebay refused registering Hard working Nigerians, Now Alibaba and AliExpress from China registers us and many youth can now trade and do mini importation without being termed Yahoo, infact if not for chinko phones many wont access internet yet they want to use propaganda to make us reject 5G network

How much can one save in Nigeria after all his Bill's have been paid

Assuming you are making 250k per month net
That's N3m annually right?
How much is rent in a good area
Unless you want to live a sub human shitty life, which typical of most unfortunate Nigerians in Nigeria, there is no way you can live in a good place and not pay AT LEAST N1M as house rent

How about fuelling your car and your generator plus Nepa bill? - That will cost you another at least 500k (I spent 30-40 grand monthly fuelling generator alone)
Add generator servicing to it


Let's talk about the "Black tax" you have to pay
Many of us pay it in heavy doses
Then food and sustainance and clothing nko?

Children school fees nko?


That's why many in Nigeria are fantastic criminals

Having to live on what they make alone will not go anywhere

My point is

Despite the bills abroad
If you know what you're doing
You will still be better off out there than in Nigeria


Period
No amount of empty boasting or pseudo patriotism or carrying shoulders changes the obvious

The Irony of it all.

A member of parliament in North America or developed country earns a total sum of circa $180k per year or even less. I won't be suprised if a Nigerian senator or HOR earns around $1m a year.

Those senators earn a lil above N44M/month that's way more than $1M per year.
My question is this; What exactly do they contribute to the country to earn up to 10% of that amount?

there' are 2 things from here
1. I can't believe the government of US can ever seek help from poor countries like Nigeria..... This is warning to everybody both young and old, "you can't know all" US believe they are best country, the champion and the leader of the universe
morale lesson: Don't always see yourself as the superior
2. Nigeria Doctor traveling and looking for greener pastures....... I couldn't blame any of them, how much do we budget for education and health in Nigeria
Our government keep showing us trillions of naira they spent on security...... let them put the money on education, the number of hoodlums will reduce, you don't expect someone who have a good educational standard will never disturb the peace of the community
