THIS IS ABSOLUTE TRASH AND LIES.

When you calculate the bills a maid or cleaner has to pay, her salary is a pittance, and barely enough to eat. She can barely pay to live in a small room. Forget flat or apartment.

These are the sort of lies that have led to Nigerians working as slaves in Libya and Lebanon, leading them to go on Youtube to appeal to Nigerian government to rescue them.

NIGERIANS ARE VERY UNITED AND LOVE NIGERIA.

THE ONLY PEOPLE WHO HATE NIGERIA ARE IGBOS, WHO CONSTITUTE A MERE 15% OF THE POPULATION.

99% OF THE POSTERS ON THIS THREAD ARE IGBOS.

THEY ARE OUTCASTS OF NIGERIA AND THEIR VIEWS ARE IRRELEVANT.

When occultic men gained leadership positions things fall apart.
There is hardly any politician in the government houses of the states of South South that is not a cult member. These people have sold their conscience. They have mortgage some precious things in their lives and for this reason they want those who have not to either follow suit or die in penury by making draconic laws that pitch the common man with hardship.

MT:


Good things will come out of Nigeria, sadly you will not taste the goodness of the land.

soccerlite:


It's not only ss. No godly person does politics

You must be a devil incarnate to be a successful nigeria politician

sunboy:


How ? That post was by a Nigerian. Not sure about the purpose.

Calitoscassius:
Naa! I don't think Naigerians are that stupid not to know the difference between Libya, Lebanon and UK, America or Austrailia..

KingOfAmebo:
Here's a trending article I read on the world's most popular forum Quora.

"Opportunities once flowed in Nigeria as abundantly as the Niger River, but that narrative has long changed.

Nigerians, known to be resourceful, educated, and fueled by ambition are leaving the shores of their motherland in droves, not in a casual drift but in a frantic exodus.

They're running from a crucible of crises that boils and overflows, leaving a residue of despair with no extinguisher in sight.

A country of numerous resources has become a labyrinth of misfortunes. Governed by the worst of leaders who have weaponized poverty for their selfish interest—that is, when patriotic Nigerians rise to question, and fight, the government, their opponent would be fellow poor Nigerians, fighting tooth and nail for the same politicians who have kept them so.

Nigerians find themselves locked in an ever-intensifying cycle of multi-dimensional problems. From economic chaos to sometimes, unbearable insecurity, the nation's woes accumulate like sediment, each layer more crippling than the last.

The government that the masses put their hopes on as custodian of public interest, has turned the country into a family enterprise, brokering ill-advised deals that mortgage the country’s future. Deals that have dwindled the Naira's value like melting ice.

Petrol prices have soared skyward to three times what they were just months ago, pulling along dreams and ambitions into fury flames.

And yet, our leaders plead for patience in a land where patience has bled dry. With this reality, the rich find their escape routes, seeking refuge in developed countries that offer a semblance of stability, leaving behind poor Nigerians tethered by financial constraints.

The only thing that seems permanent in Nigeria has become the disheartening truth that our yesteryears often outshine our tomorrows. This mass migration of Nigerians isn’t just alarming but frightening—a "brain drain" as it's called, because it's the middle class and skilled Nigerians who are leaving the country in droves.

Those who can no longer wait for the dawn are chasing the sun elsewhere, hoping to find what has become elusive at home— a life of value, a life worth living.

Nigeria has, year after year performed below expectations and for every emigrant, the implication is clear: faith in the motherland has eroded, leaving behind only the skeletal remains of what was once a thriving belief in a shared future that Nigerians can unite and make something out of themselves for the good of everyone who calls Nigeria home."

Good things will never ever ever come outta Naigeria for more than 60 years nothing good came outta Naigeria and the same thieves ruling Naigeria are still there today stealing and looting. You can keep dreaming. Nothing wrong with

isArray:
I don't think you should compare Nigeria and Turkey, Turkish people are moving in troops to Germany and other economic stable countries in fact they dominate most territories in Berlin

nairalanda1:
They run abroad because Nigeria has failed

.
And Nigeria has failed because it is a resource dependent country, and relies on revenue from one resource.

.The countries they run to, and those of us think of running to, have exporting industrial sectors, and most people there pay tax to the government. That is why they work, and why Nigeria does not work.

Quintessence44:


DUNCE WITH NO BRAIN, 60 YEARS AGO THERE WAS ZERO INFRASTRUCTURE IN NIGERIA, AND ONLY A FOOTPATH LED TO YOUR VILLAGE, NOT A ROAD. NOT EVEN A 'BAD ROAD'. A FOOTPATH.

AND YOUR ENTIRE VILLAGE WAS ILLITERATE AND BAREFOOT INCLUDING YOUR GRANDPA.

FAST FORWARD TO 2023, AND THANKS TO THE INVESTMENT OF POST-INDEPENDENCE NIGERIAN GOVTS, YOU CAN READ AND WRITE, DRESS WELL, LIVE IN A FAIRLY DECENT PLACE AND PROBABLY HAVE A CAR.

SO YOUR LIFE IS 100 TIMES BETTER THAN THAT OF YOUR VILLAGE GRANDPA STUCK ON A FARM 60 YEARS AGO UNDER BRITISH RULE.

SO SHUT UP AND BE GRATEFUL FOR INDEPENDENCE AND BLACK RULE, WHICH SAVED YOUR DUMBASS BEHIND FROM BEING A MALNOURISHED VILLAGE WRETCH LIKE YOUR GRANDPA.

IGNORANT AIR HEAD.

Quintessence44:


Are you thick?

Who said they don't know the difference?

They are headed to Europe and they get STUCK in Libya etc, captured and enslaved.

Thinktwicemybro:

My friend go and sleep. NIGERIA is a useless country and people like you are the problem. Trying to defend a useless nation that shouldn't exist in the first place. There are many white people with bad character abroad. Your inferiority complex makes you think white people are well behaved. An average Nigerian has a dream but bad governance takes the dream away. So shut up.

PDJT:


-Based on what common value do you want to build Nigeria? A commom value system breeds patriotism, and patriots build a system that works for most people if not all.

-The level of corruption and the social vices you pointed out are down to one thing- lack of patriotism. It's not something you can force on anyone, let alone a group constituting millions of people.

-I don't know where you come from, but my personal question to you is; what do you have in common with me that makes you think you can form a successful relationship with me?

Cromagnon:

Would they have somewhere to run to if Oyinbo had run from their problems?

Foolish people

KingOfAmebo:


Yes, a Nigerian saying the truth on a foriegn plateform with millions of readers worldwide...do you even know how big the effect is?

Whalis:

Even the fight in Rivers State is an occultic one.

Tjra:
Na frustrated people full this thread.. lol

greenermodels:
Honestly, Nigeria have never worked, Nigeria is not working and Nigeria would never work, let's peacefully break up this country so that smaller, more manageable true nations can emerge from it.
