Do village houses even count? 85% of urbanites in Nigeria are RENTERS.

Las, las, your PRESIDENT BUHARI and his family have lived abroad for over 40 years. There's very good reasons why.

And you don't live abroad, you only CLAIM to be abroad. Give us evidence, then we will believe.

Case Closed.

Still use Nigerian bank cuz I do frequent Nigeria just about everytime.
you don't need to do the same thing Ibeokehie does. No need to boast, just stick to the facts.. such as the fact that Mr Ibeokehie shared a link that is over 11 years old. That is a 2011 article bro.

Edited: I realise now that you posted that screenshot to prove something to him....well, it's your call.

I don't do that really. But to be honest, these people spew misinformation. They make it look like everyone for Nigeria is dying of hunger. Let's say I'm well placed in the Nigerian community which helped, but I have friends who will never leave nigeria for anything. I want to see them here, I can invite them, still they'll rather come on vacation and go back. One of them visited me last December and he just couldn't use more than a month even though I made sure I hosted him in one of the Best location in the US. Left New York for the Midwest because of sanity, yet I went ahead to host him in my place in New York, still he told me staying with me was boring. These people here make it look like no one is living well in Nigeria. That's not true

Whether I'm in Nigeria or US or Canada, I can never lack. I don't tell people because of criticism, but I used to enjoy my time in Nigeria better. I know people are suffering in Nigeria but I've not met them , maybe because I have a shield which bar me from Nigerian average life. I love nigeria, I love the US, I love UK, and I wish these places well because I have a thing or two to do in all of them.
yea which is why I would have stuck to the figures. For example, I became a house owner in 2016, so in 2011 it stands to reason that I was not yet captured in that statistic. Information from 11years ago, is pretty dated and therefore cannot be truly reflective of current realities. That is a FACT.

ObeOkehie, And I saw in one of your post about your wife . Nice submission. But that's your wife. She love the US, great. Most people do. Got married sometimes last year to the only daughter of a highly placed politician in NG. My wife won't probably leave her career in Nigeria only to come here permanently. She's a British citizen too. Although here in the US now,but still can't wait to follow me to naija in December. Everyone's experience is different bro.

And you said one person earn $1M per year Here in the US? Is the individual a CEO? Most of the highly placed engineers I have as friends here don't earn near that. Most don't even earn better than me. $1M/year is possible but that's if your wife is a doctor and your earn damn well too as family

U r not single right �. You seem � like a very cool man. And u can't marry two wives? Ahah �

Yes I cited 11 year old data, but Nigeria is a much more economically depressed place today than 11 years ago. Nigeria today is HELL for 95.95% of the populace. That's FACTUAL.

The economy of Nigeria TODAY is much worse than 11 years ago. I know the percentage of adults owning homes in Nigeria MUST be lower than in 2011. It's just logical and you know it.

it can't be lower, because like I said I joined the fold in 2016, so that is at least 1 added to the existing number. Now add the many others that built or bought houses from 2011 to date. The houses some japa people are selling this 2022, na ghost dey buy them? Lol

Of course the economy is worse off. I have said it here more than once. Spending 10k USD (1.5m) in 2014 was not hectic at all. No one here is disputing that one...but yet the show must and is going on.

The guy's not arguing for things to get better. He's arguing to prove how Naija is having it worse and that's where they all want nigeria to be;at the corner to be ridiculed. I searched him and he doesn't look like one doing fine. He is a pharmacist like he claimed. I have someone in Raleigh, Glenwood neighbours to be precise. Raleigh is the capital city of NC. So, it might be true he's in the US and I expect him to know how things work in the US, but to my surprise he is just off point.

Well I've gone out of my way to try and be open. Can you tell us your real name and what you do for a living? Let's measure this strength. I've gotten 6 people out of Nigeria, in the process of doing 4 more, translate that to plane ticket cost alone and tell me who is weak and strong.

I lived in USA for over 15 years before taking my fate in my hands and moving back to Nigeria and creating a business and creating jobs. I was listening to people like you, I was once an enthusiastic fan of Nigeria believe it or not. Now I've LIVED THE REALITY as a rich Nigerian and I know what you're writing here is FALSE.

Only 0.4% of Nigerians earn ₦200K per month, 99.7% of all bank accounts contain less than ₦500K. This means basically ALL Nigerians are "weak" and my stand is they deserve a better life in a more decent society. These statistics also mean there's a VERY HIGH PROBABILITY that you yourself are not earning much in Nigeria. You're among the "weak" and like a typical Nigerian you want to keep everyone down at your level.

Wait till APC wins the next election, Nigeria will be like Somalia, Venezuela and Lebanon. Your CHALLENGE will be even bigger. Good Luck.


Do you know the policies that brought Venezuela and Lebanon to their present state?

For Venezuela, basically too many subsidies, from a heavily subsidized currency to subsidized consumer go9ds and lastly, heavily subsidized oil which is smuggled to Columbia.

Tinubu ended the last of the fuel subsidies, that of petrol and saved $10bn. The government now wants to end the last subsidy-that of electricity. Tinubu is doing just the opposite of Venezuela.

You also mentioned Lebanon- what brought it to its knees?

Lebanon has weak governments that can't make decisions, especially tough ones.

When a government is weak and cannot make tough actions, it resorts to heavy borrowing, no different from what Buhari was doing. When you refuse to cut spending, you start borrowing to make up for the shortfall.

Lebanon debt to GDP was a whopping 200%. The prime reason for this was a bloated Civil service which needed pruning but it was untouchable. The economy was one waiting to bust. The blast was the last straw.

Tinubu has made the tough decision of not only ending subsidy, but he also ended the forex subsidy at the official rate. This has saved the country over $12bn.

How then is Nigeria like Venexuela or Lebanon?
