who let the dogs out?? Don't forget your medicine today.

Nah
Our albatross is laziness
Gulf states are nepotist ,tribalism, and religious
So are western states
And they are all greedy
Laziness is your problem

What's your definition of make it...?

Gone are those days when people travel abroad and in no time, they will start sending money and building houses...

Living in a society where you have all the basic amenities, but about 75% of your money go for bills...when comparing, compare the 25% with what people earn in Nigeria...in business, it is called take home...

Someone who earns 3000 dollars every month abroad and pays bills of 75% is equal to someone who earns N700, 000 in Nigeria... because if that person removes the 75%, he will be left with $700 as take home.

Before you argue with me, rent in abroad is paid on monthly basis and it can be between $1200 to $2000 for most of our Japa brethren

Lifeinlight:
you can say that again. Racism is different skin colour but tribalism and nepotism is of same colour


Shame on this country

This is a rebuttal of this thread: https://www.nairaland.com/7936687/11-reasons-why-must-japa#:~:text=11.,life%20expectancy%20is%20very%20high.

DISCLAIMER:
There is a notion that once you present an anti-japa argument, you're automatically an agent working for the govt. I want to state here that I have never supported this Apc govt since their coming to power in 2015. My contrary opinion on japa stems from my detest of youths mass-migration for economic reasons. I see it as an act of cowardice and stupidity.

This is not just for Nigerians japaing alone. I'm also disgusted whenever I see pictures of thousands of able bodied Latino youths who are at the US-Mexico border begging to be allowed entry into the US. These youths coming to together to mass-migrate can also link-up to take back their country via any possible means. Because if their home countries were better, they won't be moving out enmass. One of the reasons why the citizens of the country you're japaing to often discriminate against you is because you have proven to be a weakling seeking an easy excape or an inferior who are incapable of fixing their problems.
The only mass-migration i support is if it's due to serious natural disaster or large scale political persecution like that of Israel-Palestinian conflict. Below are the 11 reasons why you shouldn't Japa from Nigeria.

1.) It's More Easier To Be A Dollar Millionaire/Billionaire In Nigeria:

There are millions of Nigerians in the diaspora who are supposedly living in the first world economy and are working in various fields of human endeavor. But it may interest you to know that non have ever made it into Forbes billionaires list. But those at home keep making the list back to back.
This is important to point out because wealth building is a crucial topic to every real man and majority of Nigerian men moving are doing so mainly due to financial reasons.
Truth is, Nigeria is the largest market in Africa and a developing economy. There are plenty of wealth to be created in a "developing economy" than in a "develop economy", that's why as you are trooping out, Chinese, Lebanese and Indians are trooping in. Nigerians are raising $20k-30k in this economy to Japa while average Americans can't boast of $10k in their bank accounts, they live check to check.

2.) African Communal Living:

Nigeria offers the African social support system that you won't find in the Western countries. You fit run into financial emergency, your family will gather to raise funds for you, if you child misbehaves outside elders go assist you to discipline the child before you return home, if your house is on fire the whole neighborhood will join hands in puting out the fire, if you're cooking late night and ran out of maggi, if you knock on your neighbor door, him go deliver you, if your co-tenant never see you for 2 to 3 days, he go knock for your door to check up on you. All these don't happen in your Japa destination. In the West, you fit dey sick and later kpai inside your room and stay there for over a month nobody go know until your body begins to the smell.

3.) There Is More Insecurity Abroad:

You are 7times more likely to be shot in any city in America than in Lagos. Almost every Western country has violent "Far-Right Groups" who are frustrated and bitter with their Govts for allowing influx of migrants to erode their society and culture. These groups are like a time bomb waiting to go off because they can easily turn violent by attacking migrants especially black people. The big truth is, insecurity especially in southern Nigeria is over-reported and amplified on social media. There are violent crimes in every country. The crime news you read on social media especially in South of the country is commiserate with our population. No one can pull out any data anywhere to show that crime rate in the South has reached an epidemic proportions as believed on social media. In fact if you ban social media for 1year in Nigeria and conduct an opinion poll on insecurity. You will be surprised that Nigerians will tell you that insecurity has reduced. Just recently, a govt minister was robbed on the highway in South Africa. If that were to happens in Nigeria, Japa will be trending in Nigeria for more than a week. Most Nigerians haven't seen a bokoharam militant before but bokoharam will attack a village in Borno State close to the border with Chad, someone living in Lekki will read the news online and tweet that he wants to Japa due to insecurity.

4.) Easy Access To Natural Foods:

Nigeria has abundant healthy cheap natural foods and it's even taken for granted here. The people in the abroad you wants to go are jealous of your menu. Unhealthy and disease-causing canned and processed foods are what you will end up to when you finally japa because you will pay through your nose to place your hands on any organic food there.

5.) Favourable Weather Condition Throughout The Year:

Nigeria has one of the best climate conditions you can find. We have no extreme weather here. No severe temperature, Tornado or Harricane. Weather conditions in your Japa destination can cause sudden emergency situations. It can sometimes cause a whole city to be evacuated.

6.) No Racism:

Truth remains that after you Japa, you and your family will at one point experience both subtle and harsh discrimination based on your skin color or accent and you will never integrate into the Western society not even in a million years. Black Americans that japaed 400yrs ahead of you are yet to be fully integrated and accepted, I don't know who is motivating you that you will be accepted fully or that your own case will be different.

7.) Nigeria Better On Raising Cultured Kids:

If as a Nigerian, you are cautious of how your kids will be raised, you better stay back home, because in the West, your kids doesn't belong to you. They belongs to the government and authorities there are free to teach and instill any idealogy they deem necessary. So don't be shocked if your 7yrs old son are taught how to switch gender or pronoun at school and given free lgtv literature with erotic images.

8.) Nigeria Better On Entertainment And Fun Activities:

You can fall into depression abroad due to loneliness and stress from doing multiple jobs but not in Nigeria. With little money in Nigeria, you can go partying and balling till dawn day in day out. You fit die onto enjoyment.

9.) No Weird Or Crazy New Culture:

Abroad will humble a deeply religious person who is against homosexuality to work as a caregiver for gay couples. You will be forced to embrace trans and gay people, feminism and made to reject polygamy. I doubt if men have rights in the West. You risk losing everything to a woman, this don't only apply to your wife. Even your long-term girlfriend who you are cohabiting with, can be given a share of assets after a breakup by the court. If a random woman accuses you of rape, the system will already treat you as a convict. I recently observed that premier league captain band is now decorated with pride colors (lgtv flag) to support the community. And you know what awaits any player that openly criticizes it or refuses to wear the band. He risk getting cancelled and he should kiss his footballing career a goodbye. They will use his punishment as deterrent to others. All these new crazy woke policies and behaviors are not practiced in Nigeria.

10.) Cost Of Living Is Cheaper:

Thousands of Americans and EU citizens are retiring like kings in South East Asia and South America ie Thailand, Indonesia, Mexico, Chile etc. You can look it up. Not that they don't love their home countries but because they are excaping the high cost of living in the West. Accommodation, transportation, education, local foods etc are still cheaper in Nigeria. The amount you will paid on a match-box apartment in London or New York can fetch you a year rent of 2bedrooms flat in a good location in any major Nigerian city.

11.) No Rat Race Or Extreme Taxation In Nigeria:

You will labour abroad for a month and the rigged system will use "high taxation, high cost of living and the scam credit system" to return everything back to the system in order for you to repeat the circle again. In a bid not to go homeless on the cold streets, and also to put food on your table, you have no other option than to keep repeating the circle until the time you will finish your term of slavery due to old age, then your children will start where you stopped and the circle continues.
Truth is, the entire world is controlled by the globalists in the West, the further away you're from the West and it's entanglements the freer you will become. If the 1% elite in the West removes the rigging in the system you will be able to secure enough bags and retire early. But they stands to lose if people starts excaping the system early, they need your manpower for longer period of time to maintain their industries and establishments. This explains why the more income you earn there, the more rediculous taxes you pays because the system is continously gauging you and the tax system (one of it's tools of control) is strictly and heavily guided, defaulters risks jail term. The system was programmed in a way that you will never get enough in order not for you to start thinking of excaping the slave camp early until you finish your term of slavery.
This is one of reasons why rich and exposed Nigerians don't fancy living abroad. Even most African ex-footballers returns home immediately after the end of their career in Europe. An average Nigerian coming from lack, hunger and extreme poverty and who is daydreaming of Japa won't be able to see this anomaly. Living in Nigeria will provide you the opportunity to excape Matrix.

While all the governors of the south east lives in lagos, even bitter obi, their miscreant and their parents Will be hiding under the bed. Guess why? Christmas and New Year is on Monday , una must sit at home in that region

Jayhome24:
Between me and you who dey suffer? Drop your resume here let me drop my own and let the house judge who is suffering infact I'm making more money at the moment because I always prepared myself for the unknown ever since I started my businesses years back, sorry I never waited for any damn fuc-king govt to pay my bill ok.

Drop your resume with evidence here and let me drop mine with full evidence you go melt. I'm here waiting...

You like it or not, you belief it or not Gringor anuofia obi will never rule Nigeria in his lifetime, by 2027 we will still vote for Tinubu over and over again and you can't do nada about it. All you lazy youths who are waiting for govt to open cbn vaults for you to cash out free money will suffer more because we warned you all in 2015 to go and do something or be creative but you stayed here wasted the whole 8 years of Buhari to be throwing insult on Buhari and your destiny rot away and now complaining.

Drop your resume I'm waiting....

Jayhome24:
You see it was your type that made Nairaland to be hacked don few days back because you already throwing insult for asking you "if you are done"?

I know your type dream is to shutdown Naraland completely for Seun Osewa not supporting Gringory Obi but it won't work okwa ya?

Keep opening your mouth and be talking whatever you like that your "must burn down" slogan won't work here. Your pain and sorrow just started you still have 8 good years more to go then we transfer you to Ribadu or Marwa to brutally bruise your skull and made you bald-head man like a vulture.

Jayhome24:
Are you done? If you have more to say pls say it now so I can reply you at once.

Jayhome24:
And one person spend 8 years in a state, one of the smallest state in Nigeria but could not name four road projects he started and finished only his achievement for 8 years is he "saved N50billion" in govt account and that same person now a saint who want to deliver Nigeria, what a joke?

Sanwo God bless you, keep the good work on, proud of you.

True. cuz na ur papa and ur grandfathers dem defeated Boko haram for Adamawa, Yobe and Borno.

all this ignorant idiots dem

Opportuneke:
This is my take on this issue…

The military is military any day anytime 👌🏻
Military works based on instructions and order 💯

Why will you be in mammy when you were supposed to be receiving lectures, 💁🏽‍♂️ That’s arrant nonsense, it’s indiscipline.

You don’t flout orders and think there won’t be consequences.

I served as far back as 2012 in Enugu state, Udi local government precisely during the days of Sullivan Chime as the governor.

Don’t come online to tell us bullshit 🤷🏻‍♂️

This so called woke generation are so indiscipline and leverage on social media as a tool of defense while playing the victim card.

I pity for this generation.

Nobody will harass you if you are discipline and adhere strictly to instructions.👍

After five years of postgraduate experience, I got to know how the military operates because I eventually became a member,💁🏽‍♂️ then you would realize that most of the things done out there are totally unacceptable because everyone tends to claim rights and freedom 👌🏻
Visit any military formation and see for yourself, they are always organized just because there’s law and order.
However, I detest harassment as the case may be. But the media didn’t really propagate the real cause of the chaos.🤦🏻‍♂️

We have all seen the kind of society we live in,🤷🏻‍♂️ moral decadence has taken over the climes.

The children of this generation 🤔have no regards and respect for their elders all in the name of woke generation

Let’s always have it at the back of our mind that without an action, there can’t be reactions 👌🏻

In as much as the camp commandant maybe redeployed for going to far, I also foresee that the corp members in question may as well face dismissal or withdrawal from camp based on indiscipline 🤷🏻‍♂️

I rest my case.



You are free to speak bro.

I have spoken 🙌🏻

why will be arguing with you, you and animals in every zoo who is better?

Jennyclay:
If the man can’t forgive her then let him go jare!! . He’s not a saint either!!

I’m sure the man is not really good in bed reason she visited her ex.

So many men are not just good in bed, especially Nigerian men!! and they won’t even care if a lady is satisfied or not!! Very selfish men!!!

Personally, if I’m not getting enough money, sex and true Love from my man then I would definitely look outside.

Panda7:
stupid yoruba boy, have you ever left your sickened territory. Continue getting heartbroken with your as.hawo you will finally get back your sense. simp.

Babangidapikin:
Some people don't take life serious like that especially in the North, you see someone carry his luxury car to pack corn in the farm or someone that have a big oil company and airline driving okada , they don't get attached to material things like that..

Panda7:
if things are too cheap in euro, my question now is what do euro really need to turn themselves to heaven since feeding and accommodation can really be afforded by an work??
and about nigeria problem, what exactly is your contribution to the betterment of the so called nigeria, or are you one of the idiot's who stays indoor all day around and expect everything to come to normality in an hour, or are your dump parents not smart enough to figure out what your problems are or send you directly to euro?.

Akano5:
it's seriously paining me that I don't have money to travel for studies and i'm still young at 20...

we have those people in Nigeria which they're not tired of suffering, they will be shouting -- the other side isn't always greener, it seems majority of those people are actively involved in Embezzling our common wealth..

for this naija some of us still dey agency for more than 10 years now, after they promised confirmation in 6 months. Nothing o...

femi4:
Which 6 months, some are there as back up . They only get shifts when their main staff can't afford to take extra shifts cos they are under government stipends

femi4:
How many people are working as a full staff, most of you are under agency doing shifts here and there

Panda7:
Lies from the pits of hell. No be only £10 na 10kobo. If an hour job can buy you these, it means a day job is enough to open a bakery. Global food prices have really crashed and the UK produce enough to feed itself.

adecz:
Food is usually the cheapest
thing in most western countries.


The problem area na accommodation,
fueling, utilities, services and tax. They
are waiting for you at every turn. That's
why, the average Japa person needs to
keep several jobs to survive❗️❗️❗️


For 9ja, if you are street smart, you
can usually find your way round those
problem areas.


You can bypass NEPA lines, avoid taxes,
do hide and seek with your landlord and
go and be fetching water 🚿from the house
of the neighborhood big man that has
borehole🚿

You try any of those stuff abroad and
you find yourself in jail or you're homeless
on the streets..

Oyibo nor sabi abeg❗️❗️😁😁😁

Guy no body is talking abou comparing. Every household in South Korea has a 4G broadband access, can you say the same with the UK?. The argument here is that it is not always greener at the other side.
