If majority of our japa brethren share the 'truths' we would understand this FACT a lot more better, Nigerians abroad are more conversant with issues in Nigeria, and are desperate for things to get better despite their ESCAPE

Former presidential aide, Reno Omokri, has claimed that the lifestyle in the Western world is not good enough when compared to staying in Nigeria.

Naija News reports that Nigeria have continued to experience an increase in the number of people leaving the country to seek greener pastures.

Some may not have wished to leave, but the economic challenges had forced many to join the ‘japa’ syndrome.

In a post via Twitter, Reno analysed the lifestyle in the Western world and how many people hold down to three or more jobs to sustain the illusion of the flashy wealth they display online.

According to him, people work themselves to the ground to pay for utilities, and there is hardly time to relax or just do nothing.

He noted it is saddening that a large percentage of the population still says negative things about the country.

Reno added that Nigerians may not have a perfect life, but they still have a good one.

He tweeted: “Many of those you think are enjoying in Canada, America, the UK and continental Europe hold down three jobs to sustain the illusion of wealth they flash at you. If they miss three mortgage payments, banks WILL foreclose on their homes.

“They work themselves to the ground to make monthly payments for houses, cars, furniture, and health insurance. They can hardly relax. No time to just do nothing. A lot of them have very little family or social interaction. The rat race takes the place of family. They have to pay through their noses for childcare because it is not like Nigeria, where your relatives and friends can watch your kids.

“Too large a percentage of Nigerians have been blessed by satan to always and only say negative things about Nigeria. Get the book The Lonely Londoners and read it. It is old. But it still accurately captures life in the Western world. We may not have a perfect life in Nigeria. But we have a good one”

Is he abroad?

Oya, come back home first...

Yes, people work several jobs to pay bills and live a good life overseas. The most important thing is that they see the evidence of their hard work. The government uses the taxes to improve people's lives, not one politician using taxpayers' money to knack high-grade prostitutes.

Besides, with more and more thoughtless old men coming to rule Nigeria, the value of naira will keep depreciating, thereby compelling many Nigerians to leave the country. Imagine that £1k is over N1 million now. That means the moment you leave Nigeria, you become a millionaire in naira.

Abeg, what's good about hardship?

Don't be decieved by Social media and news, There is hardship everywhere
Let someone abroad be blunt with the truth with you

I want to work myself down with three jobs
Idiots. How many can boast of on job in Nigeria.

Abroad no easy, No free money - If Atiku had won, Reno would have run back.

He is desperate to return and misses Aso Rock very badly - Too obvious

It has been God all the way. If not for the mercy of God Nigeria would have been consumed, above all, we thank God for survival 🙏
