Sleekfingers: millionboi2: Of course there are some people doing better than all the people abroad. You said the key word "some". That will ALWAYS be true. The really important metric is how many people are doing better than those abroad? The average Nigerian citizen resident in Nigeria is NOT living better or earning more than the AVERAGE Nigerian living in the UK. As I've repeatedly mentioned on this forum, I've seen the paychecks of Nigerian oil & gas engineers that earn $1000 a day, specifically directional drillers and subsea specialists. These are guys that own homes in Switzerland and London. So yes, SOME Nigerians in Nigeria are doing better than diasporans, the question is ALWAYS how many. Only 0.5% of Nigerian workers earn over ₦200K per month. This I also know from first hand experience and also from reputable surveys. The highest paid CEO of a quoted company on the Nigeria Stock Exchange earned $600K TOTAL compensation in 2021. I know several Nigerian salary earners that are paid more than that in my medium sized city here in the USA. Many of the anti-Jakpa Crew on this forum continually stress the massive achievement of possibly earning ₦1 million per month They confirm the statistical surveys....very, very few Nigerians earn that kind of money. Period. You know it and I know it. Think back to your university classmates. Between those living abroad and those in Nigeria, who is earning more? Who lives better? Just your sense of it. Nigerians back home use psychological intimidation and flamboyance to make those abroad feel diminished and make them ripe for extortion. Take it from me, it's not working anymore. The ONLY advantage to living in Nigeria is for men who can afford cheap sex extorted from their poverty stricken and terrorized women. Enjoy the Zoo...Good Luck to you all. 5 Likes 1 Share |

IbeOkehie: Interesting to note that some Nigerians own properties in Switzerland. That's a rarity. What about the Caribbeans? Do well-to-do Nigerians own properties there? Barbados, Bahamas, Bermuda, Cayman islands etc. As for the last statement, that's true. That's literally the major benefit I see residing in Nigeria as a man. Else, e dey hard to quantify living in Nigeria. One could make money there though, especially in export of goods to developed countries. |

pansophist: Hmmmmmmmmmm. Maybe their personality differs sha and they're shameless. I feel dejected anytime I'm left with the option of begging for anything.... because I would have tried all my possible best to work hard for that which I beg for.....it is just pathetic how my little efforts is not enough sometimes. An adage says "bi a ko ba reni feyinti.....bi ole laaari" To me personally.... it's shameful begging cos I priotize my ego and detest see finish. I pray God in his infinite mercy....provide for all our needs according to his riches in glory. *Adiye kuku n laagun...irun ara e ni ko jeka mo* |

Tranquility2345: What is hmmmm? If you go back over my posts on this board, you'll understand how I know. The range I've often posted is $500 to $1500 per day, most times I use $1000 as an average. Why would I come on a public message board to lie with my real name? To what purpose? And the issue isn't that important because as I've also stated, the TOTAL EMPLOYEE COUNT in the entire oil & gas industry of Nigeria, the most lucrative sector of the economy, including cooks, drivers, secretaries and nurses, is 65,000. Less than 2000 persons per state. Chevron Nigeria has only 600 permanent staff. That's it, so the reality is that VERY FEW PEOPLE in the industry and therefore Nigeria, earn that much. Literally a few dozen highly skilled and specialized engineers and managers. These are some of the oil company employees you see moving around with squads of Mopol bodyguards. Take some time and go research the issue and you'll find my quote is accurate. When I moved back to Nigeria in 2011, I quickly found out that Nigerians know very little about their own country. It's pitiful. A whole country where the vast majority believed and voted for a FORMER PETROLEUM MINISTER that told them "fuel subsidy doesn't exist", a fuel subsidy that the government has paid since 1973 and is still paying today. A country where the average lawyer can't tell you the legal owner of land in Nigeria, where most business graduates don't know what VAT is...yes, I tried it by asking around. It's just so disappointing but revealing. IGNORANCE is the default level of knowledge, rank, abject ignorance of basic stuff. And we wonder why the country is the way it is. As to the thread, to the topic - Sorry to keep saying it, the residents of Nigeria are mired in mass poverty. That's why they keep billing and begging those abroad for money See how Nigerian residents on Nairaland exult over monthly pay of ₦500K or ₦1million, literally less than $1000 and maybe £700. You can see many of these Anti-Jakpa Zoo Dwellers have never seen that kind of money and likely never will because only 0.5% of them earn over ₦200K. Nor will they ever live in a house with 24hr mains electricity and piped water. Or experience the ease of travelling overnight on smooth modern roads without fear. With Christmas around the corner my aged mother and thousands of other Nigerians abroad are preparing the usual packets of $200, $500 and $1000 to send to Nigeria, little do they know they mouths they're feeding are also cursing them. The only thanks they will get is latent JEALOUSY & RAGE. The kind of rage that leads an Anti-Jakpa activist to let loose with sadistic glee - sihamey: Of course the little rat didn't know that I've brought every single member of my nuclear family to the USA precisely to get them away from people like him. This is the kind of mindset that animates the average inhabitant of the Zoo - poverty, jealousy & rage. The urge to suppress and inflict suffering on those who are simply enjoying their lives. From the road side mechanic and hawker to the cultist cum olosho university student to the politicians, Legislooters and President....it's all the same thirst for oppression and victimization. You guys can have your country, Tufiakwa that I should ever live there ever again. Good Luck to Nigeria! |
