Every child born into Nigeria today is already financially disadvantaged by default.

There is no easy way out of this generational mess.

Yep... Same way many Nigerians who went hard against Jonathan throughout his tenure for the slightest things are now quiet over worse things being done under APC.



Americans have suddenly lost their voices.

This has nothing to do with hardship...!

It's called "Aging Badly".

studyless123:
Being outside the country gives you the opportunity to reflect and stratigize. You have a higher chance of being successful. To be successful in any business enviroment, you need to understand the business enviroment/market and have a comparative advantage. It's one of the reasons while I also failed in my businesses.

For wealth and influence that's a misconception and a mental inhibition that prevents many from going into the business space. The success of any business is not dependent on the startup capital. One of the major issue is that many Nigerians are not interested in consulting professional services. The believe is that one can always wiggle their way through the business landscape.

Yeah... This is very apt.

studyless123:
Generally speaking all nations are on a decline and as someone said the world is on a tipping edge. It's expected to return better so that you can make your contribution to the country. Such individuals should be commended rather than the unnecessary arguments we always put forward in our defense of their relocation. Many returnees have made tremendous impact on the economy of the country.

You are either deliberately missing my point or unable to see and process it.

I have never had anything against coming back to invest or enjoy one's country, and I didn't imply that.

My issue is with the hypocrisy or pretense of acting like you never achieved or gained anything from relocating abroad in the first place... Which for most of these returnees, is quite far from the truth.


A lot of them try to diminish the gains of living and working abroad which is unfair to those nations that gave them the opportunities for bettering their lives.



Everyone can do what he or she desires without throwing shades at either sides (Nigeria or other nations).

It's quite simple!


...And by the way, there is a general economic decline globally, but let's not go there!.

Nigeria has been declining steadily for over a decade now in almost every sector.

Sigh... This team go fit beat Madrid home and away?!!

If Arsenal pulls that off, then Arteta should be Immortalised.

EmeeNaka:
When His Excellency Mr Peter Obi provided a borehole for villages in Bauchi, Tinubu's social media idiots were everywhere condemning it. Now, people can see how APC and Tinubu's people are providing water to Bauchi residents.

Lol... Don't mind the imbeciles.

Bendeco02:
All these don't work.

Dead person has gone

All the bandits killing people, has their victim ever attack them spiritually?

Shakau killed thousands of people in the North East, we know how he was killed by ISWAP rival not his dead victims

Tell them o!

Tinubu is alive and touring France as Nigerian President

Buhari is still balling till tomorrow

Obasanjo will likely clock 100

Tompolo and Asari Dokubo are getting fatter and fresher daily

Etc...!



E come be like say the "god of Vengeance" dey fear wealthy and powerful people.

Yugoslavia247:
What if he goes and finds no one killed him.

Then he comes back to the woman that sent him and made his soul restless

...Or he just decays and turns to maggot food in the ground while his soul returns to its Creator.

Yet people are still selling suya, doing gateman, and opening cigarette kiosks in Delta, Edo, Enugu, even Benue without fear of retaliation.


Southerners have seriously been overindulging their Northern brothers.


That's why they think and act like Nigeria is in their pocket.

Read from top to bottom, yet got absolutely nothing meaningful!

Op, your heading said "How" but your post didn't even come close to explaining or mentioning it.


This is why people swear for you Nigerian Bloggers... Tueh!!!

ppogba:
I am not gaslighting, sugarcoating or supporting the leadership.
My point is clear and simple. In the midst of the darkness, downturn and everything else anyone may say, there are still opportunties that abound. I doubt if anyone will argue about that. Neither am I saying that the minimum wage can take any worker home .
I stand in support of the comment I responded to and will recommend you read it again.

Okay... I don't disagree totally with you about opportunities in Nigeria.

But, where are there no opportunities?!! Even in Syria and Ukraine, there are still wealth making opportunities.

But, it will take serious wealth and influence to harness or even access them fully.


Well, we are all correct anyway.

Happy weekend!

ppogba:
Well. said.

And when she arrives, open her eyes and brain wide, begin to make use of the opportunity, in no time,. she will eventually be better than those at home who knows nothing other than the negatives they assume defines the country. Next you see them giving reasons for why she succeeded and they could not.

Let's just be real...!

Davido was correct... If you no get money or connection for Naija, just hide your face.

The few wealthy in Naija are not anywhere as hardworking and success-seeking as the millions that are poor and wretched.

Let's quit gaslighting abeg.... This is not patriotism when you fail to speak the truth.

Nigeria is not doing well economically and has one of the worst leaderships on Earth from LGA and state to Federal!

There is no sugarcoating this.

It is unacceptable and beyond abhorrent that minimum wage can't sustain a single individual not to speak of family monthly.

These abroad people can afford to be 'patriotic' and brag about opportunities simply because they are PRIVILEGED!

Argue or insult, but this is just the truth!

ednut1:
She came to look for husband or baby girl lifestyle all this one na wash. Alot of 9ja babes abroad believe they should not be working and just be enjoying life.

A mother of two who moved from Canada to Nigeria recently and did a relocation video too. I saw her post on instablog last week. Just give this one time she go run back.

Well, the truth is... Abroad life can never be fulfilling and fun-filled for any person born and raised in very social and family-connected environment like Naija, especially Lagos, Ph, and others.

Once anyone hits the goal of second citizenship and some level of good financial saving which will be a goldmine once converted to Naira, then relocating back to Naija begins to make serious sense.


Abroad life is not for those who can't stay without serious socialising and connecting on a weekly basis.


Even me that thrive almost like a hermit still find the level of social isolation in nations like Canada quite extreme and seriously unhealthy.

moshuur:
Nigerias are very funny people…if she’s in the us and she complain, them go talk say come and let another person replace u.

Now she’s back , them still dey yab her.

Well, isn't it just better to do your thing without making noise online?!!


For decades, Nigerians have been relocating abroad and others abroad have been returning to enjoy Nigeria after getting higher financially abroad.

Many of them never made a fuss or noise.


This generation talks and blabs unnecessarily.

Lol... What they never tell you is that they are relocating back to Nigeria with a Blue passport which they can always use to fly back or to any other nation at the slightest chance or need.


I know at least 6 of such people talking about relocating back to Nigeria...!

It is not difficult to understand why they would want to do that... I mean, who wouldn't?!!

With what they have saved up, they can actually live comfortably anywhere in Nigeria without stress.

Most of the Nigerians they left behind to move abroad years ago can't afford to live such lives in the same country.



It's okay to come back to Naija for the sake of familiarity and native comforts, but can we stop pretending that this nation became better after you left?!! Or that you are not returning far better than when you left.

Okay... I deeply and truly feel proud and celebrate them all.


That said... How exactly is this really impactful to over 250 Million Nigerians living in today's Nigeria?!!!

jazzman7711:
Very good appointment.

Well done sir.

The other bitter folks can’t complain.

After all, why would they want to work for a “drug lord ruling a zoo”?

Congrats to Mr Sotinrin.

Yeah... A very good appointment.

Just as good as Buhari's appointments during his 8 years in office.


It's always refreshing to see how every tribe and ethnicity is well represented equally in this administration.

Kudos to President Tinubu and Apc!

Sigh... The company has way too many idle and sex-starved individuals on its payroll.

I can't grasp the importance or real consequence of watching 2 consenting adults have intercourse even though it's in an inappropriate location.

For that nose... The Surgery was really needed.

As for the marriage part... you don't need surgery or any form of intervention to leave an unhappy marriage or even relationship.


Men and women need to learn to put their personal worth and peace of mind ahead of what others think of them.

Highwaycrew:
Saudi Arabia next

Yep... Time to consolidate the money.

Middle East is a tax haven for footballers and businessmen.

That's the proper definition of INSANE wealth!

Just ask Benzema, Kante, Mane and Ronaldo.

Eras come to an end...!

Kevin has done massively well for City, and he has been privileged to win it all under the awesome guidance of the Legend himself, Pep Guardiola.


This is the best time to move on from there, especially as City is rebuilding.

The Old Guard is done.

How is it possible that Nigeria is not in the top 3?!!

Y'all keep calling every Tunji, Emeka and Adamu Billionaire online.

Negroes sha...!

Absolutely zero awareness and concern for personal safety.

If we start comparing nations now, some of you 'patriots' and defenders of mediocrity will start vexing.

What business do houses and shops have being anywhere close to electrical installations and power lines?!!

Ange is not staying at Spurs beyond this season...!

Rumor even has it that Poch might return to his beloved club next season.


In the absence of better signings, clubs like Spurs will have to seriously dig deeper to become competitive again.

In other words, the child that is beaten should not cry or fight back... so as not to collect more beatings.


This is what happens when a single nation is allowed to become so powerful.

Pluto33:
Does it really matter if they all jet out at the same time? How has the nation been faring with all of them on seat?

No difference, brother... None at all.

Nation has been on autopilot for almost 10 years now.

For the sake of appearances, one of them ought to have stayed put... It makes no sense whatsoever for both to jet out at the same time.

That's literally abdication of duty.

That's enough ground for impeachment.

ChizzyBuna:
President : Travel go France
Vice President: Travel go Senegal

Who is in charge of the country?

Senator Akpabio and his crush, Natasha!

Lol... So, a whole Giant of Africa is doing so well that both the number 1 and 2 citizens can afford to vacate their seats at the same time.

When will the idiot Senate President be travelling too?!!


At least, we have Natasha, Portable, and Seyi Tinubu to keep the lazy youths occupied.

Nomadic herdsmen don join army o!

Good luck finding one in this hyper-sexual generation and time.

While there is nothing wrong in wanting to be the first eat that nature's cookie, you should also realize it doesn't always guarantee the following:

1. Sexual fulfillment and satisfaction
2. A blissful and peaceful marriage
3. Successful marital partnership
4. Respect and Virtue
5. Marital Faithfulness and Loyalty


You ought to be more invested in looking for someone that will complement you in every way possible: physically, mentally, spiritually and even financially.

Until we all accept that Addiction to anything whether food, gambling, sex, or whatever is a serious mental health disease, these things will keep getting out of hand.


There should be readily available, well equipped and affordable rehab centers for these addictions to be sorted out.
