So when someone says he refused to go to the U S in 1987 don't get carried away. Your question should be. What was Nigeria economy like then?
How much was the value of One dollar in naira?..
This pastor is becoming a comedian

Glink2018:


You speak foolishly....have you met me before? This is a faceless platform, your opinion didn't count here...go to the national assembly and sponsor bills to cancel tithe and offerings in the church....

Empty barrel

Agbebakun22:



Fix which country, Nigerians doesn't appreciate their own that's why our people are doing great outside... If my plan I'm nurturing kick up seriously I can't build this company I have in mind in Nigeria because of insecurities instead I will apply for citizenship of nearby country and established the company there, I can have branch in Nigeria but never will the head quarter be in Nigeria

Chukdobz20:


Everyone cannot be an employer of labour, even those with access to capital.
You guys should know this..
If Nigeria was wonderful, why is it poverty capital of the world?

Lukepeter:


That's the issue, Nigerians have value to offer but the reality shows that at the end of the day you are more likely to be a nobody, even if your shine show you would still turn back and see the chaos in the country only to be left heartbroken.

Bobbyunitedfc:

I tire for my fellow Nigerians, the hate in men of God is so alarming and scary as if they are the reasons for the chaos in the country right now..
We are just transferring aggressions on the pastors in this country, they ain't the reason why u broke...
Go and get a job!!

Nobody live on 30k monthly in Nigeria. Stop filling your head with lies to make you feel good. The poorest Nigerian spend over 10k monthly just to fuel their I better pass my neighbor generator.

I am not the cause of ur family madness that follows u every where so tey e follow u enter nairaland

Nikeballer:
Clown......werey Sorosoke shebi tithes and offerings don dey reduce na with the way lots of naija don dey japa.....

You didn't move abroad cos Americans are not as gullible and ignorant as naija peeps wey dey find miracle up and down and your "ministry" wouldnt have been this big

Rather struggle and suffer in a working society with good infastructure and healthcare than this shithole country that thinks our problems/suffering will be solved in their religious gatherings after paying offering, tithes and donations to build schools that average nigerians can't afford....

MrBrownJay1:
you dont want people to be slaves abroad but you rather they stay in Nigeria and be slaves to men like you, abi?!
narrow minded state of mind from people who only care about their own pockets... whether abroad or in Nigeria, people should look for their happiness wherever they desire, and so long as they aint doing anything wrong/illegal or against the law to care for their family, these fake men of god should be happy for these people instead of looking down on them.you got him wrong Sir, the point he was raising is "you can be in Nigeria and still fulfil your destiny" and mind you he also has members in the so called foreign country so do not think he was saying that to have enough member

these men always read the bible backwards in order that it fits their deluded agenda!!!

I'm on oyedepo's side on this. I took same bold step but never regretted it. I'm an embodiment of God's favour and grace. Shebi we go the America sef, but I chose to return home after my program. I don't know if the highest earning Nigerian living overseas can match me in revenues monthly. I give them money each time I go America. Ordinary 100 dollar is like giving them millions. I had shared stories of my life and that of my uncle who used to work at Walmart in the past as stores officer. He shunned the flashy lifestyles over there and came back home, to introduce a solar inverter manufactured by trace engineering, USA which later became Xantrex. His friends booed him, they said village people had come calling, that he's been bewitched. This man today is a billionaire. He had a major leap in his business when the atm revolution erupted in Nigeria, he became favourite of old generation banks including the CBN for installation of inverters to power all their atms nationwide. Na foreigners like Indians for chop the whole money clean mouth, come pay our graduates employed with peanut.

Nigeria is a land of honey and milk. Na those in government God go punish for discouraging foreign investors from coming in through their selfish ends. Where I've stepped my feet into, none of our the leaders' children had had the opportunity to reach, in their entire life. I've been with Barak Obama, courtesy my profession in DAR Hall( Daughters of American Revolution Hall) near the white House in DC.

Do we have challenges? Yes, we do. Are they surmoutable? Yes they are. Buhari can't be in government forever. If pool comes to shove, we break up and we bear our fathers' names . We can still work together as neighbours in areas where each has a comparative advantage. I have a friend who had his masters and PhD in a university in NC, where he lives. Recently, I saw him posting tokunbo cars on his status for sale...an associate Prof selling used cars...what a life! Back home he'd be an oga in one of our universities where his service would be appreciated.

Sorry for you, they've deceived you....only greedy people fall into the hands of fraudster...

Neither are my the cause of your generational lunatic's bondage that is ravaging in your lineage....keep your problem to yourself and stop spreading your frustrations on the nairaland thread.

Fools will always remain fool.......you can stay if your mumu never do.....

The sacked pastor that is making waves now was ones singing his praise.....as if the pastorprenours care about you......

elonmuskbaby:
there's a yoruba addage that says no matter the State of your father's house,you don't point to your father's house with your left hand

No country is perfect, every country has their buts and all manners of nonsense they put up with.for example America is dealing with border crisis,a spike in gun violence,gang violence, violent protests etc but at least they're intentional about fixing the rubbish they created it's not as if they carry their bag and decide to leave. Or do you think any Nigerian is happy with all the chaos that is going on?

My point is if your house is dirty,carry broom and sweep out the dirts.mop out every place where dirt and parasites are likely to hide, empty the thrash and make it clean and attractive such that you will be happy to live in it and others will be happy to join you to live in.when you dirty a house, the next thing is not to abandon it and run to another person's house and beg them that you want to stay there.no matter the exploits you do for them or advancement you do to impress them they'll appreciate you no doubt but it will not change the fact that you're just living in their house but not part of them or their family

Vireani79:


I say ur family madness dey follow u
As ur papa first mad as a youth
We warned him not to have kids
Today he has spread the family madness DNA to u
U will be alright

Wonder why you are attacking him. He accomplished in Nigeria what he wouldn’t have accomplished in USA. Everybody’s situation/case is different and best to do what works for you. One of my father’s friends became ACCA certified in the mid - 80s. They were less than 10 in Nigeria then but he kept complaining about the problems of Nigeria and relocated to U.K. working one contract job to another. The best he got out of it was a council house which he lived in till he passed on early this year. He insisted on being buried in Nigeria claiming he had suffered too much in the England. Know what you have and do what works for you.

Oh because they have foreign degrees means they are doing well? I know thousands of Americans with Ph.d who can't pay their phone bills. What is their standard income? Let's start from there so I school you. I am the greatest professor in diaspora affairs. None will come before or after me

America is the capital of beggars. The most heard word when you get to New York is "can you spare me a dollar". Begging is the culture of Americans and Europeans
