⏩Good security, no herdsmen, BH,
Unknown gunmen.
⏩You travel anytime without fear of kidnap.

And many other intangible benefits,

Pharmacist, Kidderminster

E be like say na UK you dey, make I come chop Amala

Oga patapata, you no dey live for London and dey take home £4,500 per month.

Take home o! Not gross! And you come they live for Kidderminster.

Average take home pay in where you live is about £1,720 per month. You are in the top 1% of earners in that town.

Your cost of living will be so affordable. I am sure that £1,000 rent is getting you a 3 bedroom apartment. Na "face me, I face you" e go get you for London. grin

That is like someone taking home N500K a month in Nigeria and come dey live for Ikire! grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin grin

Bross relax, nor dey drink panadol for someone else's head Ache, we dey try in this UK, why do you think some of us own houses worth £400k? and buy cars worth £30k plus? This month my tax and deduction was £2100 and that is less than 13% of my salary in the month.We nor be like people in the rest of Europe, this is the simple reason we have loads of migrant crossing the rest of Europe to come over here.,

UK is not for civil servant, U got the kind of imagination I had 22 years ago.U need to visit if U can and get up to date info 1st hand.
The greatest Earners in the UK are Farmers and Trades men ie bricklayers etc basically work men. civil servants are low in the ranking

Noted. Coming to the UK for studies, one must also come with game plans that would put one in paths that he/she would earn what would not make paying bills be a burden.

it is true, the society is structured like that, its free to do stuff fru internet, the vast majority of us are not set up to use our contract phones to call abroad, so its like setting up a whole new line if o ne needs to call Africa as the infrastructure here is not set up to support such, so you pay premium.

Nigerians wey dey alright for UK no get time to dey convert every damn thing to naira whilst earning in pounds.

Na this type wey I dey always see for Tesco, Lidl and Asda, always trying to convert the naira equivalent of anything before heading to tills lol.

Oga stop discouraging people back home, destiny varies.

Na still human beings dey stay for Sandbanks, posh locations for central London etc

Affordable food how. Do you know how much a tuber of yam cost here angry

Na road and hospital I want chop. How many times you dey sick for one year sef. Omo you guys can exaggerate. grin

If you dey on social welfare, just know say your own don finish. Na there you go dey till your own finish pata pata grin

Free education for kids, you don price child minding fees grin.abi where you go put them after school.

Travelling without fear is also relative, you don experience racism before grin.

I have seen people enjoying all those amenities in places like Abuja. They install solar, live in houses that are even better than here and have access to cheap labour. So no need to bypass electricity.

What that guy was trying to explain is that there is a small window of opportunity for mega enjoyment in Nigeria in comparison, if you're well set up.

Imagine a guy living in Nigeria with a fully paid house , cheap labour, and solid business as compared to a guy in a 3 bed 600k pounds mortgage in London earning 100k.


I think i'll take the former. After many years here , I've realized no be our papa get all this useless things we cap about like good roads. You want to carry the road to Nigeria after retirement or you want to die in obodo oyinbo washing plates at 60 , then off to a retirement home at 70.


You this people too funny. grin
