It is always surprising. And, you see people like this always run away when they hear ambulance sirens. There are more failure stories than success here in Nigeria. Those vagrants on the streets are majorly people who simply do not want to work. Most are totally controlled by drugs and many who have engaged in vices and refused education. Many are migrants from Mexico who are finding it hard to settle in at the moment. Whoever stays more than a year on the street is made to be on the street. Even if you move that man to the white house. The government provides quite enough to get any hard working citizen off the street.

Ask him, the one talking why he is not on the street. People spend their cash on silly things and go broke. Some come from violent and poorly managed homes.

Some Nigerians are just bad. They try to stop others from moving out. Just as he failed to see the hundreds of cars and successful people passing by. His gaze is on the negative.
Let him return so that someone else can go. Tell him that I know of many who want to sleep on the streets in LA. I have met so many successful Nigerians who would never have seen the effing daylight if they hadn't migrated.

You get light for house or na gen you take sleep?

Are you typing from Uganda or Nigeria? I can guarantee you that most Nigerians won't want to travel to some poor African countries even for Free..e.g. Somalia, Sudan...

They will be complaining online as if Nigeria is the poorest country on earth, yet they can afford a smartphone and data to rant online...look at the photo below, you won't see Nigerian children looking that impoverished.

Here they go again with their demonic lies.

I trust the mod to push this to the front page too while the thread I did to debunk all these evil and envious lies were deliberately ignored.

Evil people wet go use ladder climb up remove am make others not fit climb.

Below was my response on a similar thread which the evil mods keeps deleting including the thread I started to debunk all these lies...I wonder what they benefit from all these.

Withchraft get different departments truly.


Abeg make una no listen to all these nonsense oh..

America na God's own country truly truly if you get the right info and know your way.

If na only the gun violence, I go manage am like that dey careful where I dey enter and the kind neighbourhood wey I go stay.

I start one thread for my profile like that to talk about this same issue but because the mods dem too follow for the people wey dey try preach the abroad life no easy dem abandon am. Dem no want competition for the good life...

https://www.nairaland.com/7145274/re-abroad-life-not-easy

Abeg, anybody wey get legit way to jakpa come America, you better take am oh...

Sweet and blessed country.

I dey come to write more..make I drive reach work first.

Modified:

You see all these spoilt, lazy, and rotten brats, if you listen to them mislead you or successfully make you keep away from competing with them out of wickedness and envy, na you sabi.

This kid could be a privileged rotten kid back home in Nigeria who probably had a whole room to herself with a driver to chauffeur her back and fro wherever she goes without much of an understanding to the fact that "nyansh dey pepper egg wey dey lay egg wey she dey chop".

Her parents obviously needed more in life and thus migrated making this silly kid see herself as living below her standard because of sharing a house and bathroom. She's clearly not happy because she could barely find any poor man pikin to oppress out there.

The idiot even went on to say their condition improved when their asylum was approved. They should have sought the asylum in Nigeria na..

Talking about her parents doing long hours of work. It's evil and ungrateful to God and nature to make such complaints. Now it isn't the lack of jobs oh but the long hours of job. The question people of sound mind should ask are:

* What is the hourly wage
*Do you get owed or short paid for these jobs?
* Are these jobs back-breaking or hard jobs?
* What are the general working conditions of these jobs?

Only wicked and selfish people will tell you America is bad, unsafe, and hard to survive.

Very wicked and mean people.

Even if you find a job with an agency paying $10-12 per hour, you have enough hours to work if you want and can do the job to take in as much as $4k per month.

Now, you can imagine how much a direct staff at the same job who knows what brought him to the US will take home.

Na so all of them dey collect and drive big big new cars because work hours dey to dey pay monthly na all these enjoyment dem no want make people come enjoy with them.

My dear people, there is so much work and less hands such that na me dey reject hours because I need to rest but when I dey my bed I no dey fit rest because my mind go dey calculate how much I dey miss because I want siddon for my bed.

One thing though, it depends on the people you met when you got in and the information you had before making the moves.

One can successfully live and work in the US for 100 years and more as an alien without the right documents so long as you stay away from trouble and keep to the rules.

The system is aware of this fact that loads and loads of illegals abound in the country and of course, are doing the jobs their people won't do which are jobs in very critical sectors and the authorities turn the other way so long as the jobs get done in a timely manner and the economy/system keeps spinning.

In my 1 month that I've been here, Na God bless America I dey take sing every morning...

God bless my destiny...

God bless God too...

Na to work move all my family if possible, my entire clan comot from that dustbin called country.

When I step out from airport, na cry I cry go reach where I dey go inside train when my eye see wetin country and living suppose look like.

May all Nigerian evil leaders both past, present, future, and the ones in the grave continue to rot in hell....

Demons...

I pray for every Nigerian to experience life outside of Nigeria, particularly to first-world countries to understand the difference between life and living.

All the people quoting me to type nonsense and call me names, I pity all of una and wonder what it'd profit you lots to keep discouraging people who seek to better their lives. The best you can at least do is encourage and give the best positive ideas and information as you know it and be sure to mention that what information you are giving is to the best of your knowledge and not going on and making a blanket statement with all airs of authority.

Most of you earning nonsense based off of your personal experiences are babies in life matters, trust me.

That you had it rough or still having it rough has a lot to do with your mindset, the vibes you give off, and your general way of life.

How do you expect not to have it rough when in your mind you'd rather feed people with discouraging and wrong information just to dissuade them from coming to compete with you as if say na your money dem wan come pack for US or wherever.

How do you expect not to have it bad and rough when all you do is lament, complain, and get ungrateful to God and life with your negativities.

I wish people well and always want to see the best in fellow humans plus I do not play with gratitude. Do you know what this does for me, it makes me navigate through life not without any hurdles but the ability to surmount all hurdles with ease, grace, and favour.

You expect me and other people to have it rough and preach same?

Common, go check yourself.

I repeat..I can confidently gross $5k-$6k per month and mind you folks, I'm working through an agency and as such get paid less than the direct workers oh....just this morning I had to turn down 2 shifts to get some rest but as I think of the amount wey I for make my mind dey judge me but man need to rest to see body take enjoy the money.

If you don spend 100 years for America and you no get the right information it's best not to say a word at all.

My attitude to life and zeal to see others prosper has been working perfectly for my good and I keep finding grace and favour from unlikely sources.

There is work in abundance here that I wished I had the means to bring people suffering in Nigeria in to come work and earn a decent living without breaking a back.

Where I work presently through an agent, they've been disturbing me to leave the agency and come work directly with them because they love my work ethic but dem no understand say I never get my papers complete..

They are even willing to buy me off of the agency for as much as $5k upwards, you can imagine. Na me dey dribble dem with excuse and other gists.

Funny enough, the system and authorities know that there are people like me but they deliberately turn their eye because we dey meet need for critical sector.

Forget oh guys, America na the world.

For some of you chastising me say I be JJC lol..I had lived in Germany for more than 10 years and believe me when I say now, I feel those years were wasted with what I have seen in the US particularly as an immigrant but God never makes mistakes so I'm grateful for all the lessons and process to get here.

The Hispanics all around here in their millions will never discourage their folks and a good chunk of them no get papers and are living well...

Common..

God hates whiners, complainers and ungrateful people...

I'm just 2 months old here and I use a 2014 car.

Most of those discouraging people and who have lived here for year's and had not even a bicycle in Nigeria all drive brand new luxury cars here.

Cars here aren't luxury but pure necessity and our people dey use big cars well.

Me sef jejely settle down collect my small one as time dey go I go upgrade lol

I forgot to mention that I was called up for the job I'm doing right now the very next day after I arrived here and since then, na me dey tell dem say I want rest.

This my epistle is to encourage someone..



Thank you.

The writer should not insult Nigerians by putting them in that category. He should go and count how many Nigerians are in those camps.
Nigerians I know who manage to travel out work hard to make money, no laziness or looking for free money.
There is currently labor shortage in America and some companies have increased their minimum wage and added a sign on bonus to attract workers yet some people don't want to take advantage of that.
Except you are an illegal immigrant, this shouldn't apply to you.

For a better perspective. The UK is the SW while the US is Nigeria. I hope you get this drift.

No mind am, he’s a fool amongst fool, discouraging other prospective immigrants not to bother traveling out.

As long as you have a bicycle you can hustle. Doordash even create room for those without any means of transportation. I believe the government did not approve unemployment benefit for them. So their lazy asss couldn’t go out there to look for job.


The OP is just trying to paint a picture of what also happens in America.

Let me tell you the truth, you see this sort dash and Uber they telling you about like it will make you stable in America, it will only make you to be existing and not living. If you come to America unskilled, you will work your ass off.

And let me tell you one truth. Iberians in America are a cult. They will never tell you the reality on the other side till you land. If you want to make it fast and big in America, come legitimately and have a skill.

A blue passport does not make you skillful, lots of citizens doing menial jobs cos they have nothing to sell.

And why the OP said think twice. If you don’t want to earn $15/hr for the next 10 years, think twice and plan before making the move. That $15 or $20 an hour might look big to you cos you want to convert to Naira grin. It’s not what you think……

If you come here as a student or skilled graduate with outstanding years of experience, you fvcking bound to make it. And like I said, if you come here unskilled, you will work like a clock.

Don’t let those American roads, pictures and video make you feel it’s all a bed of roses. America will only reciprocate with what you bring.

And the moment you start comparing your life in America to that of Nigeria, you will feel you are doing better. That’s what fools many. They won’t use the American benchmark to judge themselves.

He was on point, any layman could understand what he’s saying.

May God punish all idiots who are abroad but are plotting to advise people to remain in Nigeria!

Me wey bi if I kuma get the connection this uncle get, na to dey open way for people to come...you know, no condition is permanent naim this uncle dey lock door throwaway key! At least, if you don't want them to come directly where you are...,devil, open the way for them to go elsewhere naw! Una still dey carry the attitude una dey give Nigerians there dey give people wey no dey there!

What sort of ekwensublability is this! How old is your witchcraft!

Fine lady, any how you fit do, please and please, escape from this country! If you can survive here, you can survive there! Pikin wey go strong go strong; no be until dem name am Samson.Their petty jobs and some other petty jobs you can do on the minimum wage, wetin you fit accumulate monthly na wetin most bankers dey earn for Naija per annum.

No gree make that black mamba deceive you o. Who no get dey choose plate for party? Who dey owe landlord dey wear cardigan? Shoo!

Eba dey hot, eba dey hot but you no gree comot hand. Baba, cast and bind every advice like this: reject am, disown the person, avoid the person...no matter who they are! They don't mean well for you! True, say cat sabi swim no make am catfish but e no mean say e no fit still catch fish! You fit bi traffic car washer abroad dey build duplex for Naija. Na experience wey climb orientation I dey give una. Many boys for we school that year wey dey claim rubbish, na toilet dem dey wash dey claim vacation dey carry Benz dey intmidate professor wey no know the cost of rim. Escape from Nigeria! You will always see jobs..and with time, other freelance jobs will come by.


If you are a hustler, you will definitely survive and survive others. Las las, crocodile na lizard wey join army.


Just ensure your ambition revolves around escaping from Nigeria! Jollof rice wey dey for bottom of pot today go dey for top of cooler tomorrow.

See you at the airport, fam. ✌️

How can you help me?

I can only help by information.
