Emi ko parọ!

I do not know na Igbo.

Sharpsharp00123:
this alone shows how stupid u can b

U igbos are ready to call Nigeria anything to paint it bad cos u lost election, u better die in South Africa

U dey craze, that was how gidgiddy was also talking crap

U igbos should rest, u can only lie to your village people who are not exposed

Imagine a whole tribe who believes buhari was cloned without knowing d meaning of cloning

Imagine a whole tribe that believes trump will come n conduct referendum in Nigeria

Even d northerners u call cows won’t stoop low to that madness

I am not Igbo. I am Yoruba. And i don't hate Nigeria, i am just criticizing it(not in a hurtful way).

If you cannot deal with criticism of Nigeria, then Vamos!

Examples:

Namibia has one of the highest english literacy rates in Africa. They spend the money on actual stuff that will help the people, not the other way round.

There is a reason why Namibia's roads are the best in Africa and are better than many developed countries.

Botswana's government does not bow to shady deals.

South Africa exports a lot, meanwhile we do not export crops that could bring us billions.

Ghana and Rwanda are shaming many developed countries at the moment.

So if Nigeria wants to improve, it should either adapt, or continue to be a nation run by dictators and tribalists and burn to the ground.

There is na reason why many people are going to other countries and stay there despite the consequences. They do not have to worry about a salary that is stolen from you(Because of unnessecary government spending).

Even in Saudi Arabia, despite some racism, the Nigerians there would rather stay there than return to Nigeria.

And our population should not be a hindrance. Indonesia has 273 million people and is one of the fastest developing countries in the world; just because it exports and not importing 80% of its materials.

Imagine... If we exported yam.. especially with all the intelligence benefits it brings, we could become Indonesia 2.0 tonight.

It is not only tribalism:

This is sad, sad news. Nigeria has the highest poverty rate in the world and the stupid government is doing nothing to alleviate the situation.

As a Nigerian living in South Africa, i can do nothing but watch our country fail.

I am not going to lie, i miss my home country so much, but i am so worried about the economic stabillity. With many people reporting that they do not earn a good salary, i am wondering how many years it will be before this country goes down the drain.


South Africa might be a xenophobic country(not everyone is xenophobic, my friends in za are not xenophobic). But its energy crisis is getting better, inflation is not as bad as Nigeria, and the currency is miles ahead in terms of stabillity.


This is not only limited to South Africa. Many countries in this continent are progressing significantly. Namibia(also lived there) has no load shedding and is expected to become a superpower in the next few years. Botswana, despite being landlocked, has one of the world's best currencies. And these are to name a few.

I wanted to move back to Nigeria a while ago, now i do not.
