Is data this expensive in Canada?
$19 for just 1gb is crazy man!

what's crazy about it?
so you didnt hear that he gets unlimited calls and text included in that plan.? and he only shows the most expensive plan on that network. he didnt show the way cheaper plans there. i mean way cheaper. hes just looking for cheap attention and you're giving it to him.

this is how people like you are easily deceived and believe bullshit. and also check how much he earns over there. $16.65 per hour on minimum wage. if hes tired he should give me his visa. mtcheew

Wsx2:
Everything is expensive here , this place is not for common man, car insurance cost $300 dollars every month, 1 room self contain rent is now $2400 dollars every month in Toronto . Anyone that have no money to survive for long shouldn’t bother coming here

so what are you doing there. why not come back to nigeria.? nonsense

EreluRoz:
The problems we are facing today actually started from Jonathan's administration, bitter truth.

if i catch you real life i will sooo beat you to stupor... jonathan era was still very good i mean very good compared to this demonic APC. APC came in and overwrote all of jonathan policies and the country started tumbling. mention one policy from jonathan era still existing today. everything has changed.

nairalanda1:
Well, we generate about 5000 MW, they generate about 2500 mw.

And you did not need to begin your response to me by being abusive, you know. I didn't abuse you or curse you, so why were you so abusive. Calm down, this is a site.

And going by population how much megawatt is allocated by person.. a country with 200 million.

They produce far more per person than Nigeria reason they have more light than you. simple logic!!

nairalanda1:
Because they don't connect everyone to the grid, like we do in Nigeria.

close your mouth, they probably produce more megawatts than you do. how many megawatts does Nigeria even produce self?? mtcheew

Nvestor02:
This so called people are misinformed and they are blind to the what president Tinubu is doing. If you all can check all the news media.

There is overwhelming news of how the Police, Amotekun and Soldiers are arresting the bandits and kidnappers one after the other.

Eradicating insecurity is the first step of Nigeria greatness and Tinubu is not joking with it at all.

With security, Farmers will be able to go to farm and food will become cheaper.

The fact here is that most Nigerians Citizen has been pampered and spoilt by how Government dey pay subsidy for them.

Coast of living in Nigeria is one of the lowest, if you guys tour around the African continent you will know this.

Small bottle of coke is 200 in Nigeria but in Ghana its N720

And in south Africa it's N940, same as Zambia and Zimbabwe.

In liberia Bag of rice is around N170, 000.

liar price where is the proof? show me the price breakdown. or you just conjure numbers from your empty brain everything in nigeria is very expensive. i mean very

Judolisco:
Dem dey surprise say as we corrupt reach, Nigerians still dey excel in almost every sector in Africa ... If u dey look for good leaders come 9ja, bad leaders we get dem plenty, footballers boku, basketballers we be number one, tech we gallant.... Entertainment nko they can't do without our songs and our movies.... We be truly giant of Africa.... Make dem go use their electricity learn how to play football

lol close your mouth Nigeria isnt number one im anything apart for entertainment and it's because of its large population who listen to those songs to make it popular. Every other thing nah.

MasterTeeUSA:
I've come to understand...intelligence is not often common. Where did i defend the govt? I am not and do not know one politician in power talk less of benefitting. My point is simple...all that glitters is not gold...what we lack and need to work on remain the fundamentals.

All schools should focus on agriculture...govt can mandate that. Regulations on housing so issues can be resolved to encourage private investments into housing...people are building...just using them for airbnb and hotels.

mtcheew, so what are you still doing in the west since all that glitters is shit. come back to Nigeria, the govt has made nigeria to become paradise. come and collect 30k per month job and be owed salaries. dont forget half of your salary will be used to transport yourself back and from back. come back to blackout, and insecurity. afterall rent isnt expensive here. with 5k per month you can rent a face me i face you. i pray you get deported soon.....Amen

MasterTeeUSA:
Lol I am not sure you read the advert you posted. They are renting out rooms inside the HOUSE. Like I told you before, if you know, you know. I used to work in NJ and used to live in NYC. Watch THE INNOCENCE PROJECT among others...you will see those wrongly convicted that spent decades in jail. I am not upset at you...I know you dont know and I am glad you asked. There are folks placed on death sentences that were later found to be innocent...close to 200. The person said we will never know how many innocent people have been killed already.

so youre base in the U.S and you're here tellling people not to live nigeria. haha. the problem with you antijapa crew is hypocrisy. you ran to the west when nigeria still have some hope and now nigeria is hopeless you advice people not to leave by making the west look bad with all sort of bullshit like you're ranting here.

MasterTeeUSA:
lol...you said a house rent now you say shared...we know your kind...we ask for evidence ...you change conversation. Naija children no dey jail abroad...you think everyone that japa provide beautiful future for their children...if you know, you know.. .clearly you don't know...if I am you, I will ask and learn ...not conclude

you're 10x more likely to die from insecurity in nigeria than you're to go to jail. do innocent people go to jail over there.? you're just trying to pull points from thin air. as if people dont go to jail in nigeria. your chances of going to jail in nigeria is way higher... like 500000% higher. you better accept it now that Nigeria has no future and its racing to the ground. and yes there ARE $500 houses in new jersey. so come up with another bullshit

MasterTeeUSA:
I was asking you where...tell me where you will get $500 houses rent...even your English is a liability and you want to insult someone. The Doctor doing care job overestimated his degree worth in a country that can't even find residency placements for its own citizens...Clearly you have no clue. Good day Bro

despite all the money your politicians earn they still have abroad visa, send their kids to study and base abroad, and have properties over there. shame suppose they catch some of una defending this country. you guys brain is equivalent to that of a goat. as long as you see grass to eat, you dont mind staying in capativity waiting to be slaughtered, even if the place is stinking. tufiawaka!!

matify83:
I can see you are suffering from AMNESIA as you clearly can't remember quoting me first.

I will not join in your tirade to give you a semblance of importance concerning your intellectualism but your tenses already rates you as an inconsequential illiterate.

If your so called intellect can not give you the good life you desire in Nigeria, then you are also useless to the "whiteman" you so sheepishly adore.

To put the records straight, I have no affiliations with APC neither am I a die hard political enthusiast. Your assumptions only portray you as one who delights in roadside gossips and beer palour gists.

About dealing with me, I am waiting.

Here is another quote from the noble laureate that eloquently describes your sorry state.
"We are building a generation of illiterates. They are the first to comment on the internet on issues they are ignorant about"


Nigeria is indeed Green.

mtcheew … drag me in your uselessness.. i have skills that is valuable anywhere in the world.

you can chose to stay and perish in Nigeria and your children will curse your corpse for not leaving when you had the chance to do so, after you've died of starvation, or insecurity.

as for me I want to japa and give my future and generation a good life.

are you saying you can rent a room in a cheap city or a shared apartment for $500? keep trying to sound intelligent when you're not. And this shows how low rated Nigeria is, that a medical degree here isnt worth anything over there. thats the more reason people will even japa self. the country is racing to the ground. there is no future in Nigeria.

even if the doctor ends up with carejob over there at least he will be able to give his children a future. and he will be free from security issues, inflation, corruption, light blackouts, bad roads and all the shits we're currently facing in nigeria. if you want to stay and perish in Nigeria do so since you dont value your life, let those that value their life and future do so.

MasterTeeUSA:
I am not sure you are aware all these countries have unemployed graduates and keep producing graduates. Rent of $500 for which state..pls post. Even Doctors are happy to start with carejobs...anyways those who know know...people like you need to japa and tell us how you found high paying jobs as your first gig lol

there are $500 houses rent dont be stupid. if a doctor can live nigeria and started doing carejobs. doesnt that ring a bell to your eyes about the future of the country and how hopeless it's right now. iam sure it wont because you're too dull to comprehend what iam saying

maasoap:
I don't want to be a slave or start as a slave in the palace. Let me be my chairman in my prison

idiot who will even make you chairman in the first place. you've forgotten their can only be one chairman in a prison and only the toughest guy takes it? are you the toughest guy?

maasoap:
If he says he's not better, then he's not better. Or, you know his condition more than he knows his own condition?

idiot since living in the UK is too hard for your friend tell him to come back to Nigeria and take up 20,000 job with the inflation, insecurity, polluted environs...

then i will take you serious. he should hand me over his visa.

even with minimum wage in the U.K, you can afford all basic neccessities of life. clean tap water , 24/7 electricity, security, good roads, unlimited internet access, cheap food, free transportation

but in Nigeria only daily Transport will finish your entire salary. nothing else you'll be able to afford

matify83:
I can see your upbringing was a challenged one indeed, devoid of a figure to instill discipline in your juvenile exuberance.

Must you always confirm your barbarism with every submission on a faceless forum as this.


For your information, I can never trade Nigeria for the the western world because Nigeria is my green pasture.

I already know your type from your less cerebral contribution and your resorting to spewing invectives because you are incapable of logical reasoning and judgement.

Let me remind you of a quote from prof. Wole Soyinka again to epitomize your pitiable existence.

“I don’t deal in social media. As far as I’m concerned, barbarians have taken over social media and they have swapped the intellectual quotient which used to make and still make social media valid in other societies. Here in this country, social media has been dragged down to the lowest common denominator"

will you close your dirty mouth and go have your brain checked before talking to me else ill deal with you messily.... im far more intellectual than you and your entire generation combined... only a dumb asss will call Nigeria a green pasture. even the president you voted doesn't base in Nigeria. GET OUT FROM MY MENTIONS!!!

maasoap:
This is the kind of exaggeration that made many bank managers relocated only to become high-rise building windows cleaners and some professors to become cab drivers just to beat hunger.

Japa mustnt be all about UK, or U.S or following student visa. one can go to japa to a nearby country and work or start a biz. the U.K is too smart they know most nigerians coming in are running from their bad govt, so they put restrictions everywhere and increase the visa fees and procedures.

you cant jump from a prison to a palace, even if you're the prison chairman, you have to follow due process. else you will end up as the palace slave. Yes Nigeria is the prison and U.K is the palace

Mcslize:
Stop the lie. Most of the people that spoke against relocating abroad here on naira 3-4 years ago have deactivated their accounts, relocated abroad and created new account just so people won't fish them out here on Nairaland about all their anti-japa posts after deceiving people not to relocate. They are now abroad.

I know that's what you will do. Let's bet it, you will deactivate this account and run abroad. Stop deceiving people. We know you guys. You don't keep to your words. Later on you will japa and deactivate this your account and create another one.

That's what you these anti-japa folks know how to do. It's people like you that will also send your children abroad to study if you have the funds without allowing them to study here in Nigeria.

If Nigeria is good enough, while will some persons like you who so much love Nigeria to be sending their children abroad for studies? Isn't that self deception?

It's high time you anti-yapa folks stopped this self deception.

this is what happens. lets assume a guy working in oil company in nigeria doing nothing, stealing money and earning 1.5million per month saves all his money and quit his easy job and runs to the UK with hopes he will continue earning the easy money.

he doesnt do his papers correctly and ignores all protocol (typical nigeria and gets there and finds out immigrants without papers earn less than minimum wage. so he starts suffering over there, and comes to nairaland to tell people not to japa that the UK isn't good.

some even go through student visa and cry when they cant get a proper job. what were they expecting before, over there you have to follow due protocols, no cutting corners like it's in Nigeria. with student visa you only get student like job. so thats why they're crying...

Japa mustnt be all about UK, or U.S or following student visa. one can go to japa to a nearby country and work or start a biz. the U.K is too smart they know most nigerians coming in are running from their bad govt, so they put restrictions everywhere and increase the visa fees and procedures.

you cant jump from a prison to a palace, even if you're the prison chairman, you have to follow due process. else you will end up as the palace slave.

MasterTeeUSA:
$100 per day...let me help you...if you work say at $15/hour which is not even the official minimum wage...some immigrants work for less than the official because of no papers...you work 8hours...that is $120...your taxes as a single independent is 25%....so you make $90. You do that for 20 days in a month full time...that's $1800. Rent alone is $1500...maybe you will rent a room for $800, pay electricity $50 if you are sharing, internet $25 if 4 of you are living in the house...then transportation $100...keep in mind you have no health insurance...so we will assume you will never get sick, then you have to pay for food...lets forget special food...you spend $400...you will be lucky to have that $100 by month end. You can also get a 2nd job and work 80hours a week...for how many years before your body tells on you...pray you have enough saved to buy land or build house...and and...if you are illegal without papers to get minimum wage, you are not just messed up, you will be very messed up.

rent $1500 are you kidding me? you can pay rent of $500. and besides why do you guys always assume that everyone who japa will be without papers and must work less than minimum wage. is Us or UK the only country.? are jobs that pay less than minimum wage the only jobs available?

004gist:
Read all my post and responses.

I earn 800 pounds per month, house rent takes 500 pounds per month, heating and gas, electricity all this takes rough 180 per month.

Am still searching for jobs to see if I could earn higher

guy 800 pounds isnt up to minimum wage. but you're still able to survive on it. and you're complaining. arent you already better than graduates earning mimumum wage of 30k per month, in Nigeria. iam sure you just graduated last year.

matify83:
All you need to understand that Nigeria is a good place is when you become stranded in Europe without a shelter or job to earn a living.

The biblical prodigal son is our witness.

so nigeria automatically provides job and shelter for you? you're just a slowpoke. why will you go to Europe without a plan to earn a living.

Europe is not for morons like you. they reward brains and hardwork unlike your shithole that has no value for human life.

004gist:
I made this 30 million by selling my houses in Nigeria and use the funds to Japa.

I didn't make the money here

Now the funds has exhausted and I am still standing on one leg

you're still saying the same thing. You spent 30 million on education and can't get a job to earn income in a whole UK? Instead you're crying your funds has finished is it supposed to remain after spending i?

004gist:
I made the 30milliion in Nigeria not in UK

In fact I own over 4 houses in Nigeria sold 2 before I left

#30 million not even up to $30k however, Nigerians on minimum wage cant make #30 million in their life time. but over there you can in less than 2 years make $30k even on minimum wage. and youre saying you're arent lucky?

004gist:
My brother she or he is actually right until I came before I believed.

See a lots of families that relocated last year or two are stranded. Like stranded having exhausted their funds. This are people that sold cars, houses, land and earning over 1m here in Nigeria... Combine salary of wife and husband..
.
I my self I have spent almost 30m via education rout if given just half of that money now... I swear I go return back.

Please don't allow anyone sell Hollywood movies to u.

The only time I will say come is when a company employed u and do ur visa.. What they called skilled visa. Once u land they start paying. Other than that my brother I have seen a lot here.

stupid talk ill rather be in your shoes right now that to be in Nigeria... you even have 30M to spend on education over there and you're complaining what of those that havent seen food to eat in nigeria?

Salewa97:
Forget all those $1700 is x in 2024.

Let’s do it this way. If I earn 60naira as a civil servant in 1970, can I afford to buy a $1700 car in 1970?

Yes or no?

You all talk like in 1970, everybody dey drive latest car and build latest house because say dollar to naira na 1:1.

Today, if naira was equal to dollar everybody will be able to afford basic amenities of life because the economic will be better. people are struggling to feed and you're here talking of latest car and house.

as a civil servant in 1970, you were given a car and a house.... go do your reasearch. that N60 is worth more than 300k today. people built houses like they were nothing..

No you cant afford it. but with 3 years savings you can. remember naira was worth more than dollar.

so now tell me can you afford the latest royce rolls that worth $22 million on today minimum wage. even for the next 500 years you cant save up for that....


iam trying to explain to you but you want to throw all the logic out of the window to conclude nonsense. reason Nigeria is in the mess it's today, because people like you dont want to reason, you just want to conclude nonsense..so many stuppid people in this country

Roger3D:
You envy us for what? It's an illusion sold to you by Hollywood movies. There are challenges everywhere

which illusion are you talking about? and who said they aren't challenges everywhere.. can you compare the challenges over there to what is currently in Nigeria. just close your mouth if you have nothing better to say
