you will not see data boys here funny enough they are going through same experience4s some even worst

Lannister247:
Good morning, everyone. Please, I need honest advice from Nigerians who have experienced life in the UK, especially Nigerians who have returned home after relocating abroad.

Please as a Nigerian if you have not visited the UK or lived in the west before then stay away, you'll never understand the challenges abroad thus youll start making silly comments like:

"Na villiage people de call you"
or "anywhere is better than nigeria"
or start throwing insult on something you know nothing about.

Continuing..

I knew abroad was hard, i watched people's story on youtube but i never expected it to be this terrible.

I am a Nigerian currently in the UK studying for a master's degree. Honestly, I am struggling badly with life here, and I have been regretting since i came here.
Before coming to the UK, I had my own challenges in Nigeria, but I was far happier, i had peace i took for granted.

Since arriving here, I have been feeling stressed, worried and trapped. I don't enjoy anything about this place, and I find myself regretting my decision almost every day. Sometimes people even notice the worry on my face and ask me if I am okay, THE STRESS IS OVERWHELMING.

One of the things weighing heavily on me is the routine I have ahead of me for the next year. I either have to go to school or be working. I don't have even one day of rest in a week not even Sunday. This is what my life is going to look like for the next year, and honestly, I don't know how I will cope with it. The thought of living like this is overwhelming, should i even call that living?

Another thing that worries me is the future. I see people talking about five year and ten year plans to gather enough funds and return back home, but I don't even know how I can stay here for another month. I have met Nigerians who have lived here for many years, some 5, 10 years and they have nothing, even the ones who manage to build one small house in Nigeria built it with their life(not money) working like a sl@ve 7 days a week toiling and jeopadising your health just to build a house, is it worth it?

Seeing this has made me question what exactly I am walking into and wether its better to exit early when i still have my youth, i mean the kind energy people put here if they put it back in Nigeria they must succeed.
People are not happy here they are simply enduring everything because they have already invested so much in coming and is ashamed to go back.

If I return to Nigeria now, I will have to start figuring things out again.
My biggest fear is not just the financial side of returning. It is also what people will say. Some Nigerians may laugh at me for returning after such a short time, especially when so many people are desperate to relocate abroad.

I don't want to make a decision based on people's opinions, but I would be lying if I said their judgment does not bother me.
At the same time, I don't want to spend the next 5-10 years being miserable, missing out on life, toiling, waking up by 4am and getting home by 8pm simply because I am afraid of what people will say. If i ever get the courage to go back to Nigeria ill never leave that place, you'll never value that Country until you've left. I am just confuse at the moment.

this one is a data boy who is doing his job

Gnashing already began

Lateef73:
So these guys are still not wise after Ned Nwoko scammed them with Anioma State agitation while fighting for his own interest.

helinues:
Except if you are expecting the government to be dropping daily food on the masses table.

Apart from money saved from fuel subsidy, the governors can testify to how rich they have been since fuel subsidy payment was stopped.

How about the ongoing projects across the country, where did FG get money from?

how rich the governor's have being ?
what a pity. they more money the governors get as allocation haven't translated into development in over 85% of the states in the country even at federal levels.
the masses are the ones bearing the heaviest weight of these tough economic policies and rising living costs.
if you like dont tell yourself the truth

did he tell you that?

iwaeda:
He will remove subsidy too to COPY Atiku. Nothing can make me vote Obi, he will be worse than Tinubu.

delusion

Wickedtruths:
Adeleke is currently working on burying Obi and delivering for Tinubu and APC in next year's Presidential elections.

😝

hmmmm i thought crude oil is a natural gift

you feel so because your sole intention of going for her was sex, once it is achieved your mindset feels satisfied and your thoughts will be off her. you need to change that mentality

Ambitious21:
To continue with Oloshosm

Yeye people

Misplaced priority

talking rubbish because you have a keyboard. someone just won 80 million, a car, endorsements and is now on the limelight yet you call it miss placed priority. i think your head is shaking

[quote author=gerrardomendes post=137041368]The pressure to meet up with society's lifestyle expectations. Most of them who are not wise will fall for it. [/q

you said my thoughts. i think it has to do with keeping the lavish celebrity lifestyle.. but not all of them are broke

damage control.., she is now scared of the consequences of her post since people are dragging her husband which was her intention for making the post. All of a sudden she's now defending him to probably save her marriage should he see the post or his attention drawn to it

yarimo:
All south east governors are doing great in reality as governors, except that of Abia state Alex otti

its obvious you have chosen to dwell in delusion. continue deceiving yourself

Stephenmouka:
You can ask his husband, Ali

Sssssssssssssssdddddd

Larryfest:
Control anyone
Unlimited money.....

Reading people's mind can run you mad...

yeah you're correct with the reading of mind

seunmsg:
Why should he support Atiku? Atiku was in the same party with him when he led a group of northern governors to work against his second term ambition in 2015. This was despite Jonathan’s several appeal to Atiku to pls support him. I still remember how Jonathan visited Atiku in the middle of the night some few days to the election and how Atiku refused to support him simply because he felt it was the turn of the north.

So, why should Jonathan step down his own ambition for Atiku when we all know that 2027 is still clearly the turn of the south?

he was power drunk. he was supposed to cede power to the north. don't blame Atiku in this

yes it changed in Obi's favour

which right thinking man stays abroad for 20 years without returning home, no video calls, no contact with family members and friends to check and review the house by also sending him updates... i don't believe this

THUNDER4real:
They will soon be closing shop in Nigeria. Shoprite nowadays is empty.

wisz1:
Always put the future into consideration, Construction of the road will bring more developments to the area.More house,business , companies etc will spring up akong that route thereby increasing the population,The road will accommodate the changes.

where does the large chunk of revenue come if not from there (zone). you're simply against giving back quality to the people. its good thing you're not the government

i like the ADC's swift response in debunking rumours and making clarity ....,

bestie turned husband will be replaced with another bestie

since you started it and have being caught in several occasions, it could be said you led her into this act, man up call her and let you guys discuss the future of the marriage. whatever decision that is reached you both should do your best ensure it stands.

Depriest2020:
Don't know why am not yet impressed by Otti.

if you're not from Abia, you're not based in the state and you don't access any state through Abia frequently then you have no business being impressed. those who fall into the aforementioned categories are already impressed.

unfortunately he didn't mention them so they could be verified

Racoon:
Great take home there but the taxation and deductions in the UK is not beans.

the take home you see there is after taxation and other deductions from government

all of a sudden, i now see old stuffs being posted here.

I will only believe when i see them returning En masse

from your post and response to comments its obvious youre only catching cruise..., a real man will never wish to settle with a cheat for its obvious she will cheat on you in marriage with the other guy. you'll end up being the one who will be made a laughing stock
