To call my aunty for Canada dey do me somehow, because she go think say I wan bill am. I go just drop greetings on WhatsApp message for am and I no even dey expect reply sef.

My brother for yankee go just allow your call enter voicemail. If I manage get am for WhatsApp dey hail am, dey ask how’s everything.

He go say make I go straight to the point, say him know say na billing I wan bill am as I dey greet am like clientsmiley

I appreciate them a lot and truth be told, those guys abroad dey work hard for the money even though they get the money.

I remember my brother telling me his kids are now grown and it costs him more, since he pays child support.

Nothing bad to send some money to your loved ones back home.

madam even we at home get billed do your best and move. You can’t help everyone and you can’t ignore everyone.
No wonder loneliness kills most there, cos no frndz to talk to

You must be one of those that do the billings.

If you're not one of those that got her to where she is, you don't deserve anything.

Never be a God abroad.............

The day you overwork yourself(and kick a bucket), that same family troubling you for money, would still survive..........

And when you check, you'd see that most of them are actually living fine. They just want to milk somebody.

This life is so funny..mostly Black man life of proud and arrogance.

First o have over 5 friends abroad whom I have never asked of help , one of them, I even contributed money to assist him when he was about travelling. Now things are so hard for me, but I don't ask dem for help, because I understand it is not easy for them and they have once also complained to me at a time how hard it is to make money in a legit way....I have never complained and we still talk, most the they even talk at lent that I am d one to tell them to safe the calling money.

I have another 3 other friend in same abroad ,though different countries whom when they see my billings, they will start laughing and asking me Baba land lord my I pay bills,? I will say yes....they are the ones that I know they have extra to assist me and they told me to not feel that I am bordering them... They will even be reminding me things I did to them and their family when they where in Nigeria, this even me that did it can not even remember some or did not attach any meaning to it and how greatful they will always remain.


Now my points are these:
Do you think any man or wan is happy to beg another person for money help? No. Every person would have loved to settle their problem by themselves:
Do you know the little help you render today with your clean heart, will one day come back to prove a saving day for u? Sure is not everyone u help will remember u in Ur downfall and some ppl can still take Ur money that u gave to them for one diabolical act.

If u travel abroad and u can't help financially, tell the person when that ask from help from u, and don't cut it relationship because of money. In this life, believe it or not, a day will come, good relationship will play more role that money in Ur life.

As for the lady....I really don't know what point she is trying to make with this video...

She said it's because of bills, each time she calls, they will bill her with their financial problems.



Do your little and stop complaining.

If you have to give, please give a helping hand and if you don't have, say you don't have.

People don't call international number with normal call credit again. They use Whatsapp call and 30 mins to 1 hour call may take not more thnt #100 - #200. You will even be able to see the person on whatsapp video.

UK residents are so stingy. I had an uncle and a godfather in Nigeria whose wife is a resident/citizen of UK. This woman made my generous uncle become so stingy. My uncle whose house was very close to the campus accommodated me during my days in the university until this woman, his wife visited Nigeria. These UK Nigerian citizens see kindness as foolishness especially if that kindness can be monitized. Because of the unfriendly policy the wife initiated, I wanted to be paying rent but the man refused because he's my baptismal father.

Broke, hungry, and entitled man's comment. I used to be in your shoe sha. Broke and hungry, but not entitled.

Did she tell you she doesn't help? What she doesn't like is making it an obligation to extort from her whenever she calls.

She's a human and she works to earn. It may not even be enough for her in the first place, but since she stays abroad, entitled family members feel she's rolling on cash.

This comment got me. Everyone has passed through stuffs though...

Can’t blame her, though. Some Nigerians have this inexplicable entitlement mentality. Abroad no easy at all but some family members and friends wouldn’t understand. Some friends will receive money but won’t even say thank you.

Why naa, because she taya to pick or make calls and all she gets is billing?
Are people even reasonable that others also have their lives, their bills etc.
Most Nigerian in so called UK are struggling big time, a lot in debt. It is not like here you can enter your neighborss house and eat or ask for money.

no too blame her .from my observatn most nigeriams who succed overseas are d ones from middle income families.wer there no family financial pressure.ur popsi nd momsi nd sibling are exposed nd guiding u thru d journey with prayer nd wise guidance which one needs overthere as a young person u get confuse on what ur nxt m0ve,ur decisions u make over there .which u share with ur peeps back home nd u advise ond matter is prayed on.
but d pako mama nd papa even worst d ones dt are illetrate nd think dem dey pick moni on d street of oyinbo country.all die n a die mentality parents nd siblings is a big problem u neva settle dwn for like two mobths as u arrive they don dey ask for moni .some even shw no regard about ur well being over there jux dey put financial pressure nd even say wrong things to their pikin .which kind lead one going into crime

So, because she's being paid accordingly, she must give it all out?

Do you know how much remains even for her own personal needs after paying all the bills??

I'm sorry chief, I don't get your grouse here.

They shouldn't call friends and family anymore because they have upgraded or relocated?!!

Or must they give out money because they reconnected with family?!!

Please, clarify your position abeg!

Nigerians back home will NEVER be convinced that things are difficult overseas.
So they are ALWAYS going to beg for money if you call them back home.
Don't waste your time trying to convince them otherwise.
If you just don't have money to give them, then stop calling them.
-
I'm in Nigeria here. I have a cousin in UK there. But we call each other and talk all the time without me begging him for money.
This is only possible because I too lived in the UK at a time and suffered everything he is suffering.
So I know 1000% that he doesn't have money. We can talk normally about any other topic except money, and his mind is at rest.
But for his own siblings that have not yet travelled and don't understand, he has to blocked their contact as they were not allowing him sleep.
Begging for money 24/7.
