You can't make anything in the village. We are are not talking about someone with money investing in agriculture, we're talking about jobless lazy ass man and his family moving back to village. They will only be living from hand to mouth. He is relocating simply because of free accommodation that awaits him, nothing else. He just wants to solve the problem of house rent without hustling or sweating. Such man shouldn't be taken seriously.
What is in the village? Nothing! Take it from someone who had village experience. Boring life, nothing more.

CJStarz:
Wow! I was in your shoes some years ago. I see myself in you. My dear, DO NOT RELOCATE TO THE VILLAGE with him if you wish a great future for yourself and your children. In my case,I stood my ground. He abandoned the kids and I and stayed away for almost two years. With absolute faith in God,I took up the challenge. Now he's back,but I'm moving ahead ahead. Kids doing well in school.
Nne, you can make it. Look steadfastly unto God. U can move out of that flat and live in a cheaper room. Luckily you have only one child now. I struggled with children. Where there's a will, there's a way You shall testify in Jesus Name.

maasoap:

Nothing in the village, no future there for you most especially if you skilled or educated

mariahAngel:


You saw it that way because you brought in city money.
Money no dey village.

jesmond3945:
is the kids. Training the kids in a village will set them back. We are not living in the 80s

■ This isn't true. Some villages still have good schools. What she can do is to find out where that village is and see if it is okay to live and have something to do there. Some villages are not as bad!

Kobojunkie:
But most of the kids born in Uturu can't even afford to attend that school. I know this one quite well since I spent some time in Uturu myself back in the day. Those associated with Marist Brothers and ABSU could probably boast of something but generally Uturu had nothing else to offer in the way of industry and the lot. A lot of those who attended the school in question came from the big cities, as far as Lagos State. Instead, many of the local children have to commute daily the other way towards Okigwe over that steep hill to get to school every day. (I almost died of a heart attack every time I had to venture over that road back then) Also, solar-powered homes are only common as far as the rich and political class who settled in the area. The vast majority who are poor have no access to any of that.

So, if this man is moving to the village because he has no money, what makes you think that living in a place like Uturu where he can't afford to send his kids to Marist Brothers Juniorate Academy would benefit him?

■ What a shame. May be you re in my town in the 80s. If you re proud of your village or town let's have it.

Kobojunkie:
Example? Please provide the Village name, LGA, and State so we can investigate this claim.

Someone mentioned a village I happened to be well acquainted with and listed a school I knew for a fact that the majority of the people living in that same village couldn't afford to attend. Just because a good school is situated in a village does not mean it is accessible to those living there mind you.

na2016:
How many states back in Nigeria do you know? If I mention a village now, how will you even know if what I am saying is true or not? Guy calm down. If it is by this some of us who schooled in the villages would have been nothing now.

Why do you married an irresponsible man?

Thebest12:


Oga my village school teach pass private school way i day see for lag here . You people underates vilalages shall . I prefer my ville to this Lagos

Ireportlive:




Growing up in the city , living in developed countries, I used to think village was all about what was shown in Nollywood

But I was wrong, a couple of years back I had a project in Kogi, Isanlu and this changed my perception

If he is going to the village, make sure it's for Agriculture or sales of agro commodity

This villagers live extremely cheap life, they use solar panels, eat cheap bush meat, buy fresh products, stay in cheap rented apartment, very serene quite almost dead environment, watch free to air Satellite TV


I am from Isanlu, do you mind asking what you went there for?

Good afternoon everyone, pls I urgently need your advice and suggestions on this.

My husband has been out of job since towards the end of last year. Almost the same time I had my second baby. The truth is, the same me nursing my baby has been the same person struggling to provide for the home.

Knowing that he contributed to his lost of job. He goes to work late, different excuses, doing the job anyhow that the management had to fire him. This is the second job he's losing due to carelessness.
He wasn't still meeting up with responsibilities even when he had those jobs. He was always complaining of TP expenses, deduction due to late coming, his salaries was not benefiting us.

Our present accomodation of 250k, one bedroom apartment is expiring ending of next month and I don't know how we're going to pay for the rent. The previous rent I have always contributed when I had the money.
Presently I have no job. I left my job during delivery, but I'm hoping to start looking for job very soon. Yet, I'm not idle. I'm still trying with little business to cartar for the house.

The issue now is, he has arranged his stuffs preparing to relocate to the village and he wants us to go together because he can't afford to renew the rent.
I told him I can't go to the village with him, we are too young to start retiring to the village. What about good school for the children especially my first child? But he has decided to go without us, leaving us with the whole responsibilities.
I'm afraid, I can't afford everything here either. But going with him to the village is also very scary. A man who ignore us when there's nothing in the house, waiting for me to fix, how can I trust him and relocate with my two children to his village? I can't speak their language and it's an interior village, How do we survive there?
He's not even considering all these.
Pls, advice me on what to do. I'm really fed up.

Konjiboii:

Are you guys still together and what is he doing now?

Dminister:
Women avoid men that are lazy, no vision men and men that are easily defeated by situation. I remember when I had no job, I have family to feed and I couldn’t even bear it seeing my wife taking care of our needs despite her salaries being enough to take care of everything. I decided to start hawking breads on Lagos roads just to make sure I am in charge taking care of my family until something better came up.


If you can’t belittle yourself to care for your family and open up opportunities then you are not a man

Kobojunkie:
Example?

Please indicated Village Name, Local Government Area, and State, so we can investigate for ourselves the standard of education there abeg!

des4ella:
Ozalla town, Nkanu west ENUGU STATE.

Kobojunkie:
Were you in Uturu in the 80s? Did you attend Marist Brothers back then?

I attended school in a village myself but I know that the majority of the indigenes of that village could not afford to attend that same school that I did. They had to find their levels, so to speak, at local schools in the area instead. Is that anything to boast of as far as someone who lives in the village?

Remember this is a discussion about the possibility of finding affordable good schools for OP's kid in the village and not your ego.
