Calitoscassius:
Actually she is complaining about the UK, did you even read the article? Or are only going by what the topic says?
Read!!

No mind an

diamond68:
yeah lol it’s not a required or in demand skill in Nigeria. Shebi it is pesin that has eaten well that is looking for clinical child psychologist. Actually let me correct myself, there are millions of child psychologists in Nigeria and their name is CANE. After dem cane you well well your head go correct 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Yeah there are no such jobs in Nigeria

Brutal

okoroemeka:
sincerely speaking if you have a good business steup that is pumping you money in Nigeria you will not even remember to go abroad unless for holidays, Nigeria gives you stupendous freedom to do whatever you like if you are wealthy,it is poor people that japa,how many wealthy people in Nigeria do you know that lives permanently in abroad?they go and come back because only in Nigeria can they have the real freedom they want

I say same thing. With lots of money no place beats home

diamond68:
clinical child psychologist earn 40 k Naira a month in Lagos 👀

No na. Minimum wage na 70K

YoshihideSuga:
Cultural similarity is another reason many people will opt for for living in Nigeria. Remember she has been visiting Nigeria since she was young and she mentioned seeing a lot of "black ones millionaires in Lagos". How many black millionaires dey UK?

My own issue na insecurity and where to see petrol with octane value of >90 to drive certain car models.

The whole thing is personal. With money you can build a better life in Nigeria

Mindlog:
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

For the sake of those who may be interested in that pathway, let me be more detailed.

I have my first degree in Counselling Psychology and have gone ahead to get my registration with the UKCP (United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy) and now a registered Psychotherapist.....Google the average cost of an hour of psychotherapy session in London.

I did my postgraduate specialty in Clinical Child Psychology here in the UK and now working as a Neurodevelopmental Assessment Practitioner in the public sector (not NHS)

So someone earning above a million naira (£500) a month will "ball" more more than me?

Psychiatrists are medical doctors and that's where the jobs abd money are. Psychiatrists are not medical doctors

Shikena:
Respect her choice.

This actually happens a lot though many of them quietly relocate back after a couple of years. Real life stories.

True

Sonfethopia:
True but relocating from the UK to Nigeria for better quality of life is lazyness. You and I know.

If I ask you to choose which would you choose. If your answer is the UK then we r saying same thing.

How can you know better than her?? She has decided Naja affords her an overall better quality of life

YoshihideSuga:
I can understand her for the child costs. It's morbidly expensive in the UK.

I thought the govt gives them money

MT:
Without being condescending to your career, Clinical child psychologist is not an highly paid job in the UK.

After you qualify to practice, you will be averaging between 35k to 45k GBP per annum. That is way too average in the UK.

Don't you think someone earning more than a million naira in naija will ball better?

Just asking, not advising you.

Ouch!

jaxxy:
UK is a lonely place especially if ur friends don't relocate and stay around u.

However coming back to Nigeria is only advisable if u have made ur wise investments here so u are just coming back to enjoy urself and live a good life not struggling again.

Now she has a kid? How about her husband? or is it a babydaddy situation?

Husband ke. You think it's Nigeria? They don't play husband over there

Litmus:
The following is for those that keep responding to advice from Nigerians abroad with, 'why don't you return to Nigeria yourself?'

Well, many soon will return to Nigeria, because a wave of racism and Nationalism is sweeping through Europe that may lead to attacks on all dark skinned foreigners or just as bad, slow drawn, increases in casual and seemingly unrelated killings. You people arrogantly telling Nigerians to "come home now" will not be able to cope abroad or navigate as well as those Nigerians that have been abroad for a long time and, in some cases, belonged to the generation of blacks that fought against terrific racism and made Abroad the safer place you Jappanese are dying to travel to and for which you rain insult when advised by those same Nigerians that perhaps you're better off staying in Nigeria.

Well, we just HATE to be told anything negative about abroad. It's like someone busting your dream

Zackattack:
Mr industrious! Life don pass this level.
These 3rd world countries made it so that hard workers continue in an endless loop.
As this goes on, one becomes intellectually limited.
Working remotely from Nigeria makes more sense than in the UK.
Solar is a very good alternative for constant power in Naija.
With £3k, one can easily install and renew every 2years.
Everything nor be gra gra.

That's the dream. Work remotely so you can live anywhere you want when you want

Shawarmagirl:
Some people are already rejoicing and happy for her. Allowing her to deceive y'all. After spending 30yrs, acquire Green Card, make more money like she said, visit Nigeria at will every year, is now complaining life is too hard in UK. Continue deceiving them. When she is back to Nigeria, she will be visiting London anytime she wants.

Me and my family, will return after spending 30yrs she spend and get out Green Card.

Green card? She was born there and hates the weather

ItisWell22:
You’re among the very few who got the memo.
She’s not coming back to be like every other Nigerian.

Jobs that pay in millions will find her.
If she’s unmarried, we know her expected calibre.

Like she’s coming back home to basically enjoy, while maintaining her privileges of dual citizenship.

Actually smart move on her part, I'd say

Bigkoko:
You dey mind her. She forgot to tell us say she go land so many gigs as remote worker, which hitherto were supposed to go to our niggas back home, and not only that, she will pay no single tax, as per Nig govt no send income tax things! And best of all, with her Youkay passport, she can just hop on a plane and travel to almost any country in thew world without need for an entry Visa!

Nigeria is so wonderful...make she renounce her Youkay citizenship Biko or tear her passport ni

Ah ah. She simply said Nigeria has a better quality of life FOR HER

NinjaMetahuman:
the topic says she's relocating back to Nigeria.

Not that she's complaining about Nigeria or complaining about UK.

Actually she's complaining about UK. A lot. Too expensive, weather, weather, weather

Litmus:
Why so angry? I'm sure most people congratulate and support your personal choice and plans to leave Nigeria for foreign lands, is it fare that you and so many others respond angrily to news of those that have made personal plans and choice to return to their nation of origin Nigeria?

Sorry, we just HATE to see people tell us abroad is not the heaven we dream it is

Mindlog:
A Briton do not need skilled worker visa to remain and work in the UK. It is for immigrants who are yet to achieve ILR and citizenship.

And who is squeezing in one room? Not everyone living in every country in this world is living comfortably, just like not every migrant living in the West are into menial jobs as some are even earning more than the indigenous people, doing top tier jobs.

I am a Clinical Child Psychologist, I don't do "menial jobs", so even if I move to Nigeria, I will earn 7 figures monthly.....so, what are we saying.

I don't think Nigeria plays psychologist or "Clinical Child Psychologist"

Natbrowny:
Aswear. She still dey UK dey post updates
Make she land here first, put her kids in school here, get a car and life here. Make she update us.

But many have done just that abd have stayed right here

Natbrowny:
She hasn't moved.
When she moves. Let her inform us.

Bit many have and do everyday

Calitoscassius:
She is not in Naigeria yet is she? She is still in the UK yapping rubbish about relocating to Naigeria. We will take her serious when we see her in Naigeria. So chill!

But it's not only her

MT:
Bolded is a silly thing to say.

Lot of folks are abroad regretting as well, and some relocate back and happy.

You are not in any position to determine her future fate.

No mind am. He forgets she's been comming all her life b4 finally choosing

Calitoscassius:
Yea, right! Until we see her walking along Lagos, or Aba, Enugu streets on foot. All these one are just the same o'l skits and social media clout chasing.

Why do people go on social media to tell us their plans or what they are yet to do?


Do the forking thing already! We will take her serious when we see her in Naigeria.

How did humans survive before social media?

It is more than social media. People arecdoingbit every day

Originalsly:
She is a born UK citizen wanting to migrate to Nigeria for a better life. She is a fool. Davido is a born US citizen that left the US to live in Nigeria. He is not a fool. Everybody is trying to japa to have a better life Wizkid has the opportunity ... has he left? He is not at fool. We do not know her circumstances in the UK nor her plans for living a better life in Nigeria so it is foolish for anyone to condemn her decision. How many have japa looking for green pastures and end up in desert?..wayyy worse off than they were before and can't return? To each his own ... if one looks well before he leaps he is wayyy more likely to succeed. Maybe she did.

100%

OkpaNsukkaisBae:
Even though the UK is expensive,, she's gonna regret her decision. Why not move to other European or EU countries. It mustn't be UK or an English speaking country

Because to her no other place is as sweet as Naija from her own personal experience

crossbreedwears:
I have a customer that had his Bsc, MBA and PhD in UK, but still decided to stay and work in nigeria. He works from home for an African country

Perfect set-up. Earn in $, spend in Naira

debossng:
She is hired to discourage the Japa gang. I spell APC

But it's lots of them. They all hired by APC?

rita25:
MAKE WE TELL HER?................THIS IS A CASE FROM GRASS TO GRACE

You can't tell her anything. She's been comming to Nigeria every year and finally decided Nigeria is better

olaJako:
Don't reflect wrongs to this lady, she has acquired enough funds than what we think. Mind you she's being born and raised in London. The truth about Nigeria is, if you've made up to 5million and above in Nigeria whether legitimately or otherwise you can relax in Nigeria quietly and going abroad will be for vacation. I stand to be corrected!

I think it is the weather. People BORN into that British weather seem to really hate it and really appreciate hot weather

MT:
Let us know your antecedent before you advise and people should be careful whose advice they are listening to.

Let us respect each others decision and move on. To every mallam his kettle.

Well put

MT:
He who wears the shoes knows where it pinches.

Nairaland is a platform full of individuals who have never been to the airport before but strongly opinionated about what’s going on abroad.

Succinctly summarizes it
