The first two to three months of Nigerians getting abroad is always like;

"ohh my God, see 24hrs light, Nigeria failed us" most even forget they pay $300 for utility bills every month. LoL

"See road. Ohh my God, there's no road and fine cars in Nigeria, we all trek on mud"

"Mehn, see fine fine oyinbo, I'll Marry like 2 oyinbo for here and get papers within two years" only to later realized this is only but illusion as most Nigerian guys are ugly and might not be good enough to even get dates.

"Damn. See how much my salary is wen I convert it to naira. Now, I'm earning more than a bank manager in Nigeria" Only to later realized that 60% of this money will go to taxes and bills. Nigerians at home will also bill them

"Take pictures every day to pepper ignorant Nigerians at home" only to get tired after two months when reality knock

That was me when I paid $350 for light in February 🤣

At least, we were enjoying it in Nigeria without having to pay ridiculously like this, though it's not constant, and yet we still complain

Nigerians evade tax a lot and find it really hard to come in terms with a sane society that everything has to be paid for in other to enjoy basic social amenities.

Op, Murtala Mohammed Airport never catch fire oh. You fit buy return ticket back to Naija. wink

I agree with you in all you said, but at list you paid for what you used, in Nigeria we're used to paying and not seeing a week constant light, other neighborhood will tap illegal connections and pay noting for years. You're being taxed for everything, but you get the quality of it back, remember from those money you paid, they keep maintaining the development you're enjoying there.
Here is mine and there is no two ways about it, find a work and pay your Taxes.
I ranted a big house and rented the rooms to other foreigners like me. You pay less or no rent monthly and share the utility bills. I pay other bills like car insurance yearly, auto revisions and annual road worthy tax, They're alot but will force you into getting work and be useful.
When you get Citizen you can choose to stay or return home to invest.
I encourage anybody that sees opportunities to travel to good places not Arab countries, work hard and the little you saved after paying Tax can change
Alot back home. This is mine only light alone, (gas/Heater) and refuse bill is coming.
African foodstuffs are expensive too, or you can manage their pasta meal.

Lol.

This reminds me of the day I left for work forgetting to turn off my central AC unit at the peak of summer. The stupid thing though in auto was just cooling an empty house at random. Imagine keeping the house temperature at 69 when the outside is in 90s. The AC just dey run dey go almost steady.

I nearly strangled myself at work that day and when my energy bill came for the billing cycle, small thing the amount for reach wetin dem dey use complete bungalow for Obosi. cheesy

U forgot to mention u also get tax return...
To be honest with you, if you well documented you shouldn't have much trouble making it. I'm in the US i don't know where you are but there's a big difference when u have papers and when you don't.
