That's not true. Nigerians are actually the lowest level of fraudsters, even the Indians are x5 more criminal... just that the Nigerians are very crude and largely unintelligent. Very loud too, always casting themselves. Even in public buses you will hear them calling huge sums on the phone, with that our loud voice! You are talking on phone and the whole bus passengers can hear your conversation... no be mumu be that?

The easiest way to get banned on NL is to say anything against Igbos even if it's true. Most of the Mods are Igbos and Seun has given them too much power to ban others. Your observation is flawed and incorrect.

This is a pointer to the fact that things are not easy anywhere in the world.

That UK you are dreaming of travelling to is where some people chose the way of fraud to make money. This is not peculiar to UK alone, it is all over the world. If life has been easy to them, most probably they wont go this route. I am not making any case for them, just showing that it is not easy anywhere.

Before you lose 14,000 GBP for CoS (Equivalent of 28 Million Naira) today, to get to UK where you will be slaving to make an average of 2000GBP per month (with almost 1300 to 1500- GBP gone with bills each month, WITHOUT feeding and clothing and other miscellaneous expenses), think twice and have your plans mapped out.

The grass is not always greener at the other side. Those of you that think that when you get to western world, you are wealthy by default, let this story be your guide.

I am not saying people should not travel but please lower your expectation to avoid cases like this.


I don preach to them I don taya - but the "i must japa by fire by force crew" will soon come for you

IF it is easy overseas - why did Femi Gbajabiamila steal his client's $25,000 in the USA and abandon his law practice- abandon all his established social connections became a felon to run to live in naija ? IF Gbaja - a lawyer and naturalized American citizen could run away with $25,000 - why does any sane Nigerian youth - without legal papers- no US education - no established social connections will waste $10,000 to run to the US - and will probably never save $25,000 all his life no matter how hard he works?

meanwhile in naija - IF YOU DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH THAT MONEY - use that money to open a store - just sell rice and beans -- buy bags of rice and beans in whole sale - sell baskets of rice and beans in retail - you will never struggle in life ---- and IF you are very disciplined -- you will make that $10,000 double in a year

BUT THEY WILL NEVER LISTEN grin grin grin grin dog wey won loss no go ever listen to him owner whistle grin

Some section of this country are well-known religious terrorists.

Others, who happened to be their next-door neighbors, are violent land grabbers, ethnic cleansing murderers, and commercial kidnappers.

Some community excelled in drug smuggling , dealing in baby-factory-made children, and producing counterfeit goods.

There others who are renowned religious bigots, and poverty-multipliers by uncontrollably giving birth to alms-begging children.

In this country, we also have kidnapping militias-cum-economic sabatouers.

And the people from this region, these ones in the news above represent, are world-class fraudsters and ritual killers.

Citizenship has nothing to do with crime.

Everyone is a citizen of a particular country.

It is Nigerians that see a big deal in acquiring citizenship of another country. Even the whites do not see it as a big deal.

There are many Nigerians languishing in jail in Nigeria. Also, many Brits, Americans, Canadians are in different prisons for various crimes.

Being a citizen of a western Nation does not make you a "perfect" being. We just exaggerate citizenship in this part of the world.

Why should they when the strongest passports are from white dominated countries? However, in cases where whites naturalise, they celebrate/cherish it. Such as Singapore. Indians, Pakistanis and Filipinos celebrate their naturalisation. Nothing stops Nigerians or other Africans from doing the same. It is an achievement on its own.

While your argument was persuasive, you could not deny that for every one like you we have over 100 of individuals who are at the wrong end of the stick.

Some are so frustrated with what they are currently doing that they want out desperately, and they wont mind what it takes to get a sizable amount of money to restart their lives somewhere else because they feel they have invested in the country as well.

Such notion is wrong and should be condemned but it is a reality.

An average african man is not satisfied with the definition of UK comfortablility (which you described in your write up). Africa culture has a different definition to comfortabilty.

I repeat, I am not making an excuse for them, my intention was to tell others coming to have a realistic assessment of the country they are coming into and lower their expectations at the same time. Few people realise the dream of African definiton of wealth while living abroad even as a professional, as the system is rigged to always "take more" the higher you go.
Last sentence. wink

When I read the bolded, I knew you have not traveled out before. You are one of those we are trying to shape their worldview.

First of all, those you mentioned (at the bolded) are not classified as "whites". Your kind is the one that will see a Chinese and be worshipping him as "white".

Two, do you know that during the Brexit, the EU citizens working in the UK were offered British citizenship. Large numbers of them considered it as insults and they declined, they went back to their countries. A German would rather die as a German than a British.

Three, do you realize that there was a time in the past, Nigerians landing at British airports were offered British citizenship at the port of entry, which majority of them declined. It was a thing of beauty to be a Nigerian then. Nigerians did not need visa to travel to the UK, but tell me what percentage of them travelled then? Very few, and Nigerians were enjoying in their country.

Four, stop seeing changing of nationalities (citizenship) as an achievement. It is just a mean to an end, not the end itself. Citizenship doesn't stop you from being homeless or jobless or dying poor. You need a robust, much sought-after skill sets to be gainfully employed in the western world. Even if you don't have their citizenship, their companies will file for work permit for you and you can work. You become a global citizen since any company can file for work permit for you from any country. You become their bride whom they want at all costs.

I will advise you to be consciously exposed to the global events and expand your perspective about life. Learn and unlearn.

While I appreciate the advice, I did not equate those other nationals to white people. I meant that if Pakistanis, Indians and Filipinos can celebrate naturalisation, there is nothing wrong with Nigerians doing the same. As for the part of being sought after by companies, that is understood.
