Buhari and Emefiele did this one, no doubt.

It is rather sad how Tinubu has failed to help Nigerians avail the benefit for convenience living.

SpecialAdviser:
Is Obi a senator or your are suffering Obidiaisis?

Bro probably needs a "Obistomy" procedure.

Moh247:
Cashless with fund limitations on transaction

Each Mall in UK still have ATM machines yet they are running cashless society

And how much in your cash limit in this UK malls sir?!

Also when you are ready, mention a mall in UK that has more cash point than card point.

Kobicove:
It's when they get there that they realise that you can't pick free money on the streets of London

That mentality would immediately halt. But they still won’t stop sugar coating the reality

Gentleswift:
was actually taking her serious, not until I saw those calculations. Another paper analyst who have close to zero knowledge about standards of living.

I can only assume she does not have first-hand experience. Her opinion is all theoretical

Wickedfacts:
I was in the UK this year to play and relax a bit, went to watch some matches. While in the stadium, my japa brothers were selling stuff, washing plates and picking up dirt. They couldn't even watch matches.

You know what's up!

kay29000:
I swear. My brother is now Mr. Quick One... Cos that's what he says when he calls or sends a very short voice note. He is always in a rush... Always in a hurry to end the call, talking super fast. No time to even enjoy the money

I’m just laughing at all my mentions.
Like, lol. These guys don't know what's up.

You hardly see Nigerians in clubs here cos they are either at the second or third job during club hours. Crazy!

Qatar2022:
What of good life and sure security in UK

Sure security, lol. I can mention some areas where you dare not walk alone at night without paying close attention to the environment.

Research!!!

JBArokonkwo1:
Oga how much of 1.2m will give you 24 hours electricity without noise being generated all in the name to provide electricity? If u mention inverter,what capacity of inverter do u need to carry all appliances in your house 24hrs in a week?

What do u use to charge your inverter batteries?

If u have a stroke,how well will u get an emergency response in nija compared to UK?
NHS if free for all! We don't pay a dime to access health care here!

Kidnapping is only seen in horror movies/nollywood movies here!

Young man,u have made a joke of yourself ,including those liking your post......


Now run along.....

lol, quote me when you are ready to talk about the extended wait with NHS.

Or is it not this same UK I’m in, lol!

You will gain nothing in sugarcoating reality when comparing. UK is better, yes, but there is a condition for comparison in this context

Hallams:
Exactly,

I don't know why Nigerians are always swift to convert salaries in Euros, Pounds e.t.c to naira when it is obvious we don't spend those currencies here and they don't spend Naira in those countries. I see such comparison as nonse

It's just plain ridiculous.

When they get on foreign soil, they will understand why Nigeria abroad are usually not accessible online as it used to be when they were in Nigeria.

It's a lot about WORK and Bills

QuinModah:
Anyone who will stay in Nigeria because of a higher salary is quite confused about the logic and purpose of their japa. This is basic maths, but nobody pays attention in maths class these days.

To be honest, alot of Nigerian's leaving the country is for a better life standard, and not necessarily money, people are seeking for safety, good health care system, quality education system etc. Trust me with your money in this country you can't afford those, you can't buy safety (ask some generals in the army why their kids are abroad & why they relocate after service and you get the answers you seek) , these are functions of government responsibilities, which they have failed without any form of remorse.

Nigerians are no longer safe in their country, you have a good job, you are prone to be kidnapped, you drive a good car, you can be robbed and killed, kids are spending close to a decade in public universities for a 5years program. The exodus campaign out of the country is based on having quality lifestyle, Nigerians are simply tired of not been safe in their country anymore. The good Job comes with its inherent risks of been killed, robbed, or kidnapped, so trust me is beyond the salary to stay back in a system designed to shorten your life span. fix the country and Nigerians will stay back.

it is not a salary issue. Are you aware there is no middle class in Nigeria again?, a good number of Nigerians are one chronic disease away from poverty. Have we not seen someone that returned back to Nigeria to work at the rate of same salary structure.

This case here depends on the person skill-set, and how important such person is to the firm.

Average entry level salary in UK is

$32,500 = ₦14,428,050.00 yearly.

Let's break it down.

$32500/12 = $2,708 making ₦1,202,189.52 monthly. (Subjected to all statutory deductions)

In short there are many companies that can afford this in Nigeria depending on how skilled you are.

Note: it's not bad to japa and it's not bad to stay back, but it's depends on your purpose.

Let me stop here.

lol. Your analysis is a joke!

1.2m in Nigeria would avail you a better life than $2708 would avail you in the UK.

You even reached the monthly value without considering taxation, lmao!!!


To all those quoting me saying I’m not exposed, lol. Thank you

But always ask yourself why it seems your families or colleagues abroad usually get more busy than they were in Nigeria once they relocate. They are not avoiding you, they can’t just help working their a** out on multiple jobs to sort the bills.

But let them continue sugarcoating the reality for you, lol!

While they do, ask them the last time they flexed in a clubs, bars, nice events, etc. It's non-existent because they are always working to keep afloat.

All at the expense of their health. Doing crazy night jobs when weather is -4 degrees as a second or third job.

Once you relocate, you struggle to remain a Nigerian because it becomes unrealistic to exhibit a true Nigerian lifestyle. Nigeria is a culture, not just a name.

The last time I booked space was when I had to job. Lmao!!

Salut!

There is this particular word that I have struggled to remember for years. I once encountered it on Nairaland, but I can't trace it.

The word describes people who like to have things placed concisely. Like returning items to exactly where they were taken' generally being unease with disorganization.

Hin[/b]t: The work starts with a [b]D, I think.

It is not OCD. It's a particular adjective.

Pls comment with whatever pops into your mind.
