TravelRe: Memoirs From Chile by gforce5: 10:34am On Feb 19, 2024
Like, I don't understand the jealousy! That's how they slut-shamed a female poster here who posted her vacation trip to Morocco. This is despite the fact that she indicated that she's based in the UK! This is why I tell people to be careful of posting personal information on forums like this. Too many bitter people here who are praying for your downfall. Forget the haters bro. Many of them are stuck in Nigeria without any hope of leaving. The one's who have papers (I don't want to mention their names) and are based in the west are just oppressors who don't want to see others shine. They want to be the gatekeepers to prosperity. Our people suffer from crabs in a bucket mentality.

You dey mind them. There's even one whose a politician who wants to die here. This year I qualify for permanent residency while tinubu continues to give them wotowoto. The same western countries that people are all doing go fund me. I thought there was money on the floor to pick. Some have even abandoned their studies and now claiming refugees cheesy cheesy.

TravelRe: Memoirs From Chile by gforce5: 2:13pm On Feb 16, 2024
Man, Nigerians are some of the most frustrated people on the planet! A guy decides to open a thread documenting his migration history to another country and all people can do is pour vitroi and mock him! You lots are so ignorant that a simple research would have shown you that Chile is the most developed country in South America and one of the most developed in Latin America. Nigerians are ignorant about many countries outside the west that they don't know that SOME of these Latin American countries are superior to any country in Africa.

That's not even the issue. If you lots had been following this young man's post/threads over the past few years, you would know that he's using Chile as a stepping stone to the U.S./Canada. He can't afford to waste millions of naira in Europe with nothing to show for it. This is just common sense. I am not crazy about these Latin American countries as they are political unstable but as an immigration lawyer, i have done my research and realized that these countries have a very strong passport. A strong passport can easily facilitate emigration to the west without spending so much money on tuition fees/ work visas in the west only for you to end up in Nigeria with nothing to show for it. Man, you lots really deserve your politicians.
RomanceRe: Man Caught Lady He Trained In School For 7 Years In A Church With Another Man by gforce5: 9:58am On Feb 16, 2024
That is true. I had that same conversation with a female friend 3 days ago. Women who make more money than their spouses/boyfriends tend to be more domineering. There are exceptions though such as Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, Alakija, Bola Shagaya etc. However, my point still remains that our mentality of being providers tends to attract gold diggers and liabilities not only from Nigeria but other parts of the world.
Gerrard59:
While that is true, are we going to overlook women's hypergamy and cultural reasons? Because, the reality is that a woman who contributes financially in the household will demand certain privileges and be assertive/opinionated (money gives power). How many Nigerian men can cope with such a system?
RomanceRe: Man Caught Lady He Trained In School For 7 Years In A Church With Another Man by gforce5: 3:28pm On Feb 14, 2024
Good for him lol. Despite several warnings, pleas and examples, Nigerian men refuse to stop this habit of training someone who isn't your wife to school. I have said it on numerous occasions that Nigerian men are natural SIMPS. They are conditioned to spend on women without thinking. Nigerian men have zero standards and will go for women who wouldn't look at them if their situation was in reverse. That "provider" mentality has messed up a lot of men in this country and is the reason why they die before their time.
BusinessRe: Shyngle, Wigwe's Dad Was Head Of NTA & His Mum Was A Nurse by gforce5: 3:27pm On Feb 13, 2024
Bros, you are on point. Too many ignorant people think that wealth & priviledge is all about money and salaries. Back then, being a silver spoon child opened doors to so many places. The contacts you could get, the average man would NEVER have access to it. Herbert Wigwe was as priviledged as you could get at the time. He had a better head start than most bankers. Same as his partner AIG, Jim Ovia, Tony Elumelu, Segun Agbaje and Atedo Peterside.
usmanktg2:
What they don't understand is that been a mere civil servant is not the point, nor the salary that comes with it.

What makes it a silver spoon are the connections, networks and exposure that comes with it. The title of NTA DG can grant you an entry ticket to many cartels where key decisions are made, especially before the advent of the social media.

It's only a myopic mind that will think NTA DG is only about the salary and contracts .
TravelRe: Between Brazil, Mexico, Canada And The USA? by gforce5: 12:40pm On Feb 07, 2024
OP, it depends on various factors such as your travel history and finances. Getting a U.S. visa has always been about luck. Canada has become more stringent since so many Nigerians are migrating to their country. Brazil and Mexico are easier as not too many Nigerians visit those countries. Finance plays a big part in birth tourism. Do you have the finances to cover having a child in Canada/US?

Like Tenza and Gerrard have suggested, it would be wiser to have your child in either Brazil/Mexico. In Brazil, the parents of a child born there become permanent residents within 2 years. The cost of having a child there is cheaper than Canada/U.S. A Brazilian passport grants it's citizens visa-free access to 173 countries including Europe and Latin America. Brazilians have freedom of movement to live and work in Portugal. Mexico is also good as Brazil. Mexican citizens have visa free access to 165 countries including Canada, Europe and Japan. Mexican citizens are also entitled to Spanish citizenship after two years of residency. As a Mexican citizen, you or your child will be eligible for TN status which allows citizens of Canada and Mexico to work in America under specific professions. If I were you, I would have my child in Brazil/Mexico before Nigerians become aware of the advantages of going to those countries.

UyaiIncomparabl:
Which of these countries are very likely to offer one a visa smoothly without hassles to birth a child? I am aware Canada has added to her rules thereby making them very stringent to meet. Likewise the USA. But, we are still willing to try despite the stringent requirements (last we checked). We are looking at either Brazil or Mexico presently and hoping that they grant us a visa. Thing is, the back and forth has been very exhausting inclusive of the hefty financial commitments. But, we still have our minds and eyes on Canada and the US especially Canada if there are easier ways to help us forge through with ease.

If there are other countries we can try that you know of that do not have "too much" stringent requirements and will offer citizenship (with strong values) by birth, please, kindly state them. It would interest me to know. So, do kindly share. Thanks.

TravelRe: JAPA: Who Will Take Care Of Grandparents, Parents And Elders? by gforce5: 4:17pm On Feb 01, 2024
This is gas lighting at it's finest.So people should cancel their dreams/ambitions because of their parents? What about those whose parents live in the village while they reside in the city? What should they do huh? They should abandon their hustle in the city in order to take care of their parents? There are many people who's parents live in a different state from them. Should they leave what they are doing in the state they are based in just to care for their parents? It is very important to take care of your parents but your own survival should come first. You cannot be hungry and then have the strength to feed another human being whilst having an empty stomach. It's just human nature.

Bros, I was about to say the same thing. Most of them complain about Nigeria's problems but are not willing to make a conscious effort to change their behaviour. A lot of them are so used to the mediocrity in Nigeria that once they travel abroad, they can't cope living in a functional society as it's alien to them. Hence why so many of them are on social media ranting about how tough life is abroad.

BusinessRe: How Do Business People Cope In This Harsh Economy? by gforce5: 10:18am On Jan 29, 2024
The "Anti-Japa" crew are just a bunch of deluded idealists who are detached from the realities of living in Nigeria. Most of them lack exposure and enlightenment. Like it's that easy to set up a business in Nigeria. To them N1 million is big money that can do multiple things while to some of us that have seen money and converted money know that N1 million today is not what it was 10/15 years ago due to inflation and other factors. As long we import everything including toothpick, businesses in this country will always be subjected to external factors. When you also consider that we don't have a welfare system in this country that can provide a safety cushion for the lower class and a credit system that can help struggling businesses, if you aren't connected or mentally strong you will struggle in this country. quote author=IbeOkehie post=128134256]

BusinessRe: How Do Business People Cope In This Harsh Economy? by gforce5: 12:01pm On Jan 26, 2024
People are gradually waking up lol. It so funny when I read numerous posts on this forum about setting up a business in Nigeria. "Don't JAPA, set up a business in Nigeria", "stop working for people and be self-employed", "with N1 million, you can set up any business in Nigeria". Like it's that easy. If it was that easy to set up a business in this country, many multinationals would not be relocating their offices to Ghana and other African countries. The business environment in Nigeria is one of the harshest in the world and only the strong can survive.

The money you pay for diesel, rent, importation, transportation of goods, tax and bribes has killed so many SMES in this country. On top of that, the banks don't give favorable grants/loans to small businesses. As it stands now, if your business is not a necessity like food, water and other essential products, your business will struggle because many people are cutting costs. Even the elites are reducing their expenses.

These politicians already have a plan b if Nigeria doesn't work for them but you see those ones defending them due to tribalism, religious intolerance and politics? They are the biggest losers. Many of them don't even have a passport! I wrote an article on the very forum earlier this year about the need to get a second passport and I was insulted. Nigerians don't like the truth and worship their oppressors. As for that guy that you responded to, ignore him. He's a well-known anti-japa supporter on this forum who has a British passport.

FamilyRe: Single Nigerian Ladies In Diaspora, Any Reason Why You Turn Down Our Guys? by gforce5: 3:10pm On Nov 30, 2023
You lots make me laugh. OP, the reason why Nigerian girls in the Diaspora are skeptical about dating a Nigerian man without papers is due to the past reputation of Nigerian men marrying women for papers, impregnating them and dumping them once they have their documents. The men, in most cases, have wives/girlfriends back home. Non-Nigerian women are more open about it because they are more open-minded and not aware of our brothers past exploits.

Now, the so-called "superiority complex" is not restricted to Nigerians in the diaspora but it started in Nigeria. Let me be blunt: Most Nigerians, bar core Northerners, are elitist, arrogant, criminally-minded and self-centered. Charity starts at home. Everyday, the average Nigerian tries to cheat their fellow Nigerian all in the name of being "smart". We love to carry labels and oppress each other. You have Island vs Mainland, Private Universities vs Public Universities, Universities vs Polytechnics, overseas students vs home students, First class vs every other class, PHD vs Masters etc. When you have this type of mindset, why won't you have the same problems overseas? I mean, in this very Nigeria, people judge you based on the way you dress, look, talk, the type of car you drive and the kind of family you come from. Your former President once asked a Nigerian girl in the UK "who is your father?". I will say no more.

As for those suggesting that picking a wife from Nigeria is better, please who are the Nigerian women without papers abroad that the OP was referring to?? Is it not the same Nigerian women from Nigeria? Are they not the same Nigerian women, born and bred in Nigeria who migrated abroad like the OP? All those Nigerian men killing their wives in the States, are they not the same women that were brought over from Nigeria? You lots really make me laugh.

Nigerians are natural snitches. They will upload all their problems on social media not minding that others will observe and use it against them. They make noise like they are the only nationality to experience JAPA. The Chinese, Indians, Pakistanis, Lebanese and Fililpinos have been immigrating for decades yet they don't make noise like Nigerians. Nigeria is not even among the top 20 countries that have the most emigrants but we make it look like we have the highest number of emigrants in the world. We just love to make noise. It's a complex.

TravelRe: 6 Months In Canada, 6 Months In Nigeria. How? by gforce5: 10:16am On Nov 22, 2023
I wouldn't say that they are an "elite group". They just happen to have documents that enables them to move back and forth. If you want to be like them, you need to have a green card, Indefinite leave to Remain (UK), Canadian PR, EU residency card etc. For even more flexibility, you can go all the way and acquire citizenship of those countries (which is what majority of those "elite groups" do). I, myself, move back and forth between Nigeria and Europe because I can.

P.S. the only other way you can achieve that without acquiring the aforementioned documents is to apply for an investor visa which will enable you to set up a business abroad and live there. However, it comes with a lot of restrictions. Anyways, this is why I have been preaching to Nigerians in Nigeria to acquire a second passport via JAPA. In this day and age, being stuck in one country isn't enough anymore.

kamtrix:
There is an elite group of japa people that do not necessarily live abroad. They typically spend 6 months in USA or Canada or UK and spend 6 months back in Nigeria.
They go abroad to work for some months and come back home to Nigeria.

They also understand that Nigerians suffer from inferiority complex and worship anything foreign hence why those at the bottom of the developed world can succeed in Nigeria. We should just be grateful that most foreigners aren't aware of our deep seated level of inferiority complex otherwise they would be rushing to Nigeria to cash out.

TravelRe: Canada Conference Visa by gforce5: 4:15pm On Nov 16, 2023
OP, since you already have your visa, it would be advisable to book your return ticket for 7 days in case something comes up. I normally advise clients to apply for a visit visa if they are attending a conference as it gives them more flexibility. A Conference visa is issued for a very limited time period and comes with many stipulations.

TravelRe: Nigerian Man Narrates His Ordeal After Wife Went Into Labour At Toronto Airport by gforce5: 10:39am On Nov 14, 2023
This man thinks that we are all gullible. You went to Canada on a visiting visa with a heavily pregnant wife and you assumed that the Immigration officials won't see that as a red flag?? You are afraid of being deported on a VISITING VISA?? He didn't access/plan what it cost to have a child in Canada. You think the Immigration officials don't know that format? This is how they abuse the health sector in many western countries thereby resulting to stricter immigration requirements for other Nigerians.

I remember as a student in England in the mid 2000s when Labour were in power, so many Nigerians had abused the NHS under the guise of "medical tourism". A lot of them will give birth in the UK and would not pay their bills thereby costing the NHS thousands of pounds. Our people were so brazen that they travelled all the way to Belfast to give birth once they realized that automatic citizenship by birth don cast in the UK and having a child in Northern Ireland would entitle them to Irish citizenship before they stopped it. These lots would do the same in Belfast and run away without paying their bills!!

My fellow Nigerians, I am begging you, when you decide to have your child abroad, always be prepared. Don't just come, have your child and abstain from paying your bills. It makes it more difficult for other Nigerians who can genuinely afford it. This is the reason why Trump wants to stop birth tourism in the States. Think about others.

Tensa, i respect you but this statement reeks of ignorance. How many Nigerians have seen N1 million in their life? Don't get it twisted by what you see in Lagos, Abuja or Port Harcourt. At least 85% of Nigerians live in poverty. Extreme poverty I might add. There was a report that the number of dollar millionaires in Nigeria is about 33,000. Imagine. 33,000 thousand people vs a population of over 200 million. We have fewer dollar millionaires than even Egypt (39,455) and South Africa (40,100). Many Nigerians aren't doing well tensa. For that lady to have saved that much as an illegal immigrant (which is her current status) is impressive in my own opinion. Her family is just an impoverished one that took advantage of her naivety.

You have misinterpreted my post. The majority of people in those categories in my post are part of the 1% of this country. JAPA doesn't make sense for them.They have a lot to lose in terms of assets, properties, businesses if they emigrate without a plan. If you are part of the middle class and working class, you should emigrate by all means necessary. The middle class and working class are NOT losers. Those doctors, pharmacists, bankers nurses, IT specialists and lawyers leaving the country in drones are NOT losers. In fact, they are the engine of this country but the economy and the economic policies of the last two administrations have not been favorable to this class of people. Nigeria in the long haul is the loser because these aforementioned class of people are what the country needs to thrive.

P.S., as previously stated, I am not against JAPA. In fact, the middle class and the working class have every right to JAPA. Nigeria is not working for them. What I am against, are those who are doing extremely well in Nigeria and decided to leave their jobs, sell their assets, properties and close their business in the name of emigrating abroad for "greener pastures". It is better for these people to secure a second passport via citizenship by investment. With a second passport, they can travel out of the country whenever they want. Always consult an immigration lawyer before making hasty decisions.
TravelCategories Of Nigerians Who Shouldn't JAPA Abroad (especially UK) by gforce5(op): 4:35pm On Nov 06, 2023
I noticed a thread on[b]"10 sets of People Who Shouldn't Travel To The UK".[/b] I found it interesting and decided to create my own version. I am an immigration lawyer who just came back from an IBA (International Bar Association) Conference. As a member of the immigration committee, we discuss immigration issues. Immigration is as old as time and inevitable. I don't have issues with Nigerians emigrating for "greener pastures" after all, I did the same thing as a teenager thanks to my folks and encourage many others to do so. What I do have a problem with are the categories of people emigrating abroad to start all over. The list is as follows:

1. Big earners/those who are at the top of their career: It doesn't make sense for someone who earns millions a month to abandon that in the name of JAPA. The chances that you will earn the equivalent to what you are earning in Nigeria is slim. You have to start all over again as no country is going to hire you over their own nationals.

2. People approaching 50 and above. I was insulted some time ago whenI stated that if you must Japa abroad, you should do it when you are young. While there are quite a few over 40s who have been able to re-establish themselves, there many more who have struggled to get back on their feet. The job market is a young person's market.

3. Politicians. These category of people make too much money to desire to move to another country. The system in Nigeria was designed to cater to their very whelms.

4. Small scale/large scale business men. If you have a thriving business, it doesn't make sense abandoning your business just to start over in another country. Don't get me wrong, there are many countries are looking for business men to invest in their economy. In the UK, they fall under the category of investor visas.

If you are a Senior Lawyer, Bank Manager, Senior Surgeon, Senior Chartered Accountant, you are most likely at the peak of your profession in Nigeria and very likely earning a decent amount of money that places you in the elite. It makes no sense for these category of people to emigrate and start all over again.

There you have it. Everybody else has the right to leave the country as it's not working but it doesn't make sense for the above-mentioned class of people to JAPA abroad (at least, outside Africa) as they have a lot to lose.
RomanceRe: How Do People Who Pickup Hook Up Girls Get Erection? by gforce5: 4:28pm On Oct 17, 2023
So you mean that Dangote who was caught pants down with a hook-up girl is a "low lifer"? You mean that Ben Affleck who cheated on JLO with prostitutes is a low-lifer or Wayne Rooney who cheated on his wife with prostitutes is also a "low lifer"? Cristiano Ronaldo who slept with a lot of prostitutes during his first stint in England is a low lifer abi? Let me enlighten you and pansophist about men with money. Men with money, power and influence patronize prostitutes the most as there's no strings attached. No emotions. Just get laid and pay her off. To many men of means, it is easier to sleep with a woman who knows how to service a man without any form of attachment/expectations than to date someone who is not a virgin, will chop your money and has nothing to offer in return.
Reminderz:
@bolded, only when a woman is damaged, sex would mean nothing to her anymore... because she's mentally damaged, she now sees the act as a type of charity work... this is why they migrate to hookup sites, roadside prostitution and onlyfans... when she has gotten to this stage, words like shame, immorality, consequences, accountability and responsibility will be no where to be found in her dictionary...

on the other hand, men who intentionally fvck and patronize these type of women you mentioned are low lifers and someone without standards... men who lack the balls, men who entice women with their money to get them laid, men who would fvck anything on skirt, men with shortsightedness, short term goals, men who are blinded by lust, men who are suffering from addictions, men who are sexually indisciplined and men who are of low IQs... real men don't eat nonsense...

I have spent one-tenth of my life in the UK and only a crazy person spends that amount in an British club. Even Footballers don't do that. The most they would spend is 20k . 38k is many people's yearly income in the UK. Only a few people earn 50k salary in the UK. N40 million is a lot of money in any country to be wasting in a club.

PoliticsRe: More Trouble For Governor Sule As Group Urge UK, EU To Impose Visa Ban On Him by gforce5: 10:36am On Oct 17, 2023
As usual, many people in the comments sections are giving ignorant opinions of what is on ground saying that a rich man like him has no business staying in the west. Of course, many commenters did not read Sule's previous statement that if he doesn't secure a second term, he would relocate back to the States. The man has spent half his working life in the States and most likely a citizen, it's not about the money. Most of them saw Nigeria as nothing more than a cash out venture. If things don't work out, they can always go back to their base abroad. That's what Willie Obiano of Anambra state did. Same thing with Kemi Adeosun who moved back to the UK after the whole certificate scandal. Only the wise would understand what I just said.

I can't blame him for making that statement. As far as he's concerned, Nigeria is nothing but a cash out venture. Once he's tired of the system, he can easily retire to the States where he spent most of his working life. His children are there and he's most likely a U.S. citizen. When I tell people that Nigeria is nothing more than a cash out venture to many people, especially diasporians, they get angry. The worst of those in the diaspora move back to Nigeria to cash out while the best of the best Japa to the west to the add to the economy of their adopted countries. Only the wise would understand what I just said.

I don't know what to say really. I can't predict the economic standing of black brits in the next 10 years or so. I can only say that they need to get their acts together or they will be still at the same level/left behind. I will tell you that those Indians are going to be more dominant. They have literally penetrated every sector bar the military and religion. The natives will NEVER allow them to dominate the military. That's their identity. Same with the Church and Monarchy.

Thank you for your response. Seeing those South Asians at the bottom tells me that culture is everything. You are right that blacks in the UK are not fully represented compared to their cousins in the US - Democratic Party. Also, the Conservatives were smart by nurturing ethnic minorities within the party. David Cameron did the magic, and that is where the Republican Party failed in the US.

In your opinion, what do you think or predict of the recent black African migrants in the UK in a decade's time?
