Starboytwo: How many people are in bene republic again?
If Nigeria was just like eg Ebonyi, small, maybe 5 million people, it will be very easy to govern.
Don’t be comparing 5million people to 250 million people. Over 300 ethnic groups. Over 500 languages. Oboy, incomparable. I guess china, India and USA would have been a shit hole if population hinders development. If u are talking in terms of crime, I will agree with bro. Instead of u to blame the corrupt leaders, u are bringing population into this. It's well |

Hopez456: You're right , their roads are top notch. Street lighted, different lanes for motorcycles, bicycles and vehicles. The toll gate, entering Benin republic from Seme border is world class. I don't know if the standard is still maintained as i was last in Benin over 15 years ago. But mehn, i always relish my growing up experience in Benin republic. The local people are friendly as anything, i lived with many families while my dad was away. Wow... 15yrs is quite a long time bro. U may not recognize places anymore based on the transformation. The tollgate is still looking sweet till date. A very clean and beautiful entry point |

pansophist: The price of arrogance is that you see past your shortcomings while others you look down upon grow even better. As someone that have been to Benin republic, I completely agree with the poster.
Only that for Nigerians, abroad have to be when they live with white people. Of course you should move to the West, but if that's not attainable, then neighbouring countries ain't bad either. Ivory Coast is also a good one and even better than Benin.
If your idea of a good life is good roads, security, safety, sane citizen and be contented with the basics of life, to run your business in peace, and can achieve Self-actualisation with hard work, then lots of countries within Africa offers that. Funny enough, The ivory coast you talked about is mainly dependent on agriculture. Their roads àre so sweet and their police and immigration are very good too. Many African countries have left us behind when it comes to good life and good governance. |

Hopez456: Op is truly on point. I was raised and had my elementary education in Benin republic. The police, Genderm are professionals to the core. They rarely carry gun but just whistle, but with a blast, omo, you're done if at the wrong side of the law. Their water is metered, metered 24/7 electricity has been there as far back as 2002. Lovely and organized country i must confess. You are truly on point. Police don't carry guys unecessarily but always standing and observing to make sure there is law and order. Most newly built roads built roads are European standards sincerely and I am impressed |

KingofTheStreet: i think when it comes to good policing, they are 99%. Talon the president is a no nonsense man, that's why they are afraid. I wish we have someone like him in Nigeria. Past looters for don japa 💯 Right |

coolshegs1: Seriously, my friend told me about this when he dropped out to continue his studies in Cotonou. I'm not surprised at all... 🥺
Please, regarding the internet connection: - how much do they cost? - do they last than the average "unlimited data" promised here? - and how beneficial is the place for someone who wants to work remotely?
God bless you OP.
The best is to subscribe unlimited with moov. It's about 15k for a month. Here is one of the best places for remote jobs bro. You will enjoy your work here |
