Good day nairalanders, I was listening to a radio programe earlier today. and the conversation was around Nigerians leaving the country by any means. Then people started calling in, but two callers said something that struck me out! And I Quote them verbatim.

one said, "I Rather Be A Slave In Another Man's Land, Than Be A Slave In My Father's Land!"

then the other said, " I Rather Stay Back And Live In American Prison Yard, Than Come Back To Nigeria To Live In Abuja!"

I dont understand! Has Nigeria gotten this worse?
like what is happening guys?

Yes my brother.
Am saying the same thing

I bet those guys voted for Buhari

They are now packaging another Buhari in the person of Bola Tinubu

Let's see if Nigerians will make same mistake again in 2023

Worseter, my brother.



I don't have better word, I have to coin this one

Mittracy:
Yes my brother. Am saying the same thing

I can understand your grieviance

I'm on a JAPA mission.

Situation in the country doesn't leave much to cheer, and dearth of quality leadership at all levels doesn't inspires hope either ...

yuping:
I'm on a JAPA mission.

please remember me am also praying for you, please don't forget me when you get there

Their experience has made them reason this way.

In this, our country some folks have made so much money that they can go to the best places in these same countries our dear brothers and sisters wish to be in their prisons.

Live no balance.

How come you are not quoting the called that said he was in UK but would rather not apply for UK citizenship.

Imagine they lie to you everyday and insult your sensibility. In broad they light they call black white and call white black and then they unleash their miscreants on the Internet to defend and propagate their agenda.
Only the strong in heart and spirit can survive here.

Contrary to what most people believe, the leaders is not the major problem, Nigeria's problem is the system of her government. A corrupt system/Constitution can only produce corrupt people.

Until that is changed, the country will continue to sink real fast.
Only a transparent system can reduce/checkmate the menaces of corrupt leaders.

Well, Nigerians are habitual hypocrites, they will rather knock the head than punish the buttocks that farted.

Absolutely!
That's what's called 'the ugly truth'

What do you call a country where lives don't matter?

What do you call a country where your fundamental human rights are suppressed?

What do you call a government that kills peaceful protesters?

What do you call a country that isn't even safe to walk around in during the day, much less at night?

What do you call a state where unemployment, hunger and abject poverty has become a way of life.

What do you call a country whose leaders are as filthy and corrupt as the word itself?

What do you call a country where politicians jump from party to party in search of relevance to score cheap political points.

Nigeria has failed us in all ramifications..

So Yes, things have gotten so bad and may even get worse.. so whoever is leaving, just wants a state where he can be treated like a human being..thats the least he can ask for.

Thanks.

I dont believe him, he definately has uk passport just incase.

its normal....people without money talk like that all over the world....

If you listened to the programe i would agree with me that almost every person that called the show said they would leave too if an opportunity comes up. So it wasnt just those two guys.

Rickmann:

Those are people with poverty mentality. Ignore them!

They are on they way by refurnishing one old man I won't mention his name before his urchins come after me.

Na the same people go later on send SOS to A bike Dabiri to come and rescue dem for another man's Land ! Nonsense !!! Na today we dey hear this kind Ranting

When your village people are dealing with you, this is the kind of thing that will come out of your mouth.

Bros
Do you know that if they park ship and announced that it's a free ride to overseas the ship go over full and capsize.
Some even they pray why that slave trade period no bi now.
People go willingly go enter the ship knowing fully well.
One mama 85year was about traveling to USA
They come interview mama say wetin she dey go do overseas considering her age.
Mama said it's better she die overseas because there she go rest in peace in death.

If BBQgriller is given the chance to japa now, he won't think it twice..
Shame catch the idiot sotey he no fit use him real moniker on nairaland..
Everything he stood for and everything he has ever defended came crashing like a pile of card..
Manna, wayasay bout the lekki report?

Nigeria is even good today . Come back in the next 20 years. What is happening up north will be permanently normal all over the south.

Nigeria is projected not to develop, so nothing should shock you... If you see the line ups for this presidency, Buhari might be better than them.... Imagine people like Tinubu, Orji Uzor, Atiku etc

@OP They are either ignorant or misinformed..

Take the case of those people trapped in Libya sometime back while trying to cross into Europe and you'd understand that most black people have fo0lishness engrained in their DNA. At a point, they were all begging FG to come and rescue them from slavery their trusted friends sold them into, some of the women were forced into prostitution with over 100 preeks of different sizes sampling them every blessed day.

The two idi0ts that called into the show will likely beg FG in the near future to save them.

Honestly he don over worst sef
