my life is comfortable enough. mind you i have lived in the usa and the uk and my life was never comfortable in those countries. its just too many bills and so i am never settled. but in africa and naija ? its a more peaceful life. it can be as cheap or as expensive as you want to make it. cut your coat according to your size. in nigeria you can rent a place for 200k a year. in the uk you cant even rent a place for 200k naira a week. grin grin

My guy I’ll never believe u lived in UK or USA. You don’t even believe it.

Africa need me. Nigeria need me.
I personally requested to serve (NYSC) in d north where others find less appealing to them.
Even when I'm called to serve within Africa at anytime I choose like Liberia, S.leone and Nigeria.
I believe we lack access to good medicare and I'm obligated to render d service within my capacity.

It's a choice.

I can bet, that you will go further in life. This is the right spirit. This is the secret of success. If I have to meet you in real life? I’m positive I will not be disappointed with your achievements.

What youths of nowadays don’t know is that success goes with positive vibes and sacrifices. When one has negative thoughts about his/her environment/country, he/she will not see any good things in it, and neither will the environment/country enables good things in return for such persons. You sow what you reap. It is the law of nature. Most people are killing their productive souls, albeit, unknowingly.

cool


Most of them come back and start using their American connect to cash out on gullible Nigerians

Funny thing I noticed about this American and Canadian returnees is that the moment they get Permernent Residency they come back home straight and start their usual business

Rappers
Musicians
Comedians
Actors
Car dealership
Farming
Travel Agents
And most especially Yahoo Yahoo money laundering and pickers


The Nigerians that have not travelled out to hustle before and always complaining about Nigeria I just look at them and smile, some of them may never understand the emotional torture of a migrant without necessary documents to get proper job, competing with wicked Asians and Mexicans for horrible job

You are right. Asian people hate black people, especially Africans with a passion.And anybody who has not travelled out of Nigeria cannot know what it means.

Davidoff2000:


I nearly ran mad when I came back for reasons I don't care to mention here now. It took me two years before I got a job and started getting back on my feet. Now, I am happier here than there.

Now lemme tell you about America.

America is good, depending on your level and state before you got there. If you were jobless, doing POS or selling rat poison in traffic, getting to America will seem like heaven for you and you cant stop thanking God you got there. If you were doing good, living the good life in Nigeria, and then relocated to America, America is only a slight upgrade. There is nothing an American can enjoy there, you wont enjoy here (with your money ofcourse).

If you were using iphone11 and you got bumped to iphone13, will you go thanking God and be freaked that you are now using iphone13? No. But if you were using techno or itel and then got gifted 1phone 13, its a whole new game altogether.

That's how it is-so it depends on your status on Nigeria really and then how you got there- your path to citizenship. If you go as a student on full tuition, you are good. If a spouse or parent won a green card and you go and you don't even have an idea how rent is paid, you are good too. You don't worry about insurance, taxes, etc etc. Someone has already made the sacrifice for you.

But if you go on a visa, overstay and hope to make good? You are on a long thing, and your experience will be one of stress and near bitterness. Your path to citizenship determines everything.

In America, someone must have made the sacrifice for you, for you to come and start enjoying the good life. If you are the one to make the sacrifice? Only your children will enjoy o, not you- you are the pathfinder, the sacrificial lamb- you won't enjoy your life- others would.

Las las..if you are earning good in Nigeria, you have a better life balance- money, family, social network, sense of community etc.

There, its a lonely society out there, so cold it can make you miserable in old age due to loneliness.

My two kobo
You have a point.

American peasants don't have unrestricted access to the best healthcare treatment that is a big fat lie.
Can anyone be denied access to healthcare services in America?
This question includes those illegal immigrants & those earning 20k Dollars annually.
Or even those on social benefits.
Can they ever be denied access to treatment even when it's cancer?

There is no place like home. If you don't live a better life or have a thriving business or work in your country, you may seek for one wherever your maker will direct you else, you will hustle till you die with NOTHING to show for it.

The best place you can be and be successful in life is where God leads you. Nigeria is not good yet people are making it genuinely.
Have faith in God, make up your mind, persevere in what you are convinced of doing in life and success will be yours.

List just ten Nigerians that make it abroad,for each one,I will list ten people that make it in life there in Nigeria.

Don't those stupids living abroad bowing not return (I don't even think there are these people).

What is the extra enjoyment abroad?

All those buildings(skyscrapers) you used to watch on TV ain't standing there as you think. They have as dirty places as you all see in Nigeria,the gap between the rich and poor is very wide.

In the most developed cities where those Iroko Buildings are,the life is very very adverse and complex.

Ghetto people are like what Hausa people called "Yaku Bayi". There is not Absolute Ghetto in Nigeria.

People ain't caring,anyone is busy,struggling to cater for his living.

Dangote spends more time abroad than in Nigeria. Same with your politicians. Otedola is always in Monaco or London, same with his family. Tinubu is now a part time Nigerian, he is always going back to London to refuel his engine grin

Don't be deceived, we see these people across a lot.


Most of them that you find here are here to milk the Nigerian masses to sustain their children's luxury life abroad. Check well, all of them have their kids living outside Nigeria.

Tbh there's a lot of opportunities in Nigeria. Just break even first.

You are right. In 2013, my wife and I won USA visa lottery but forfeited it because we couldn't raise the money needed. In 2016, I was working at Dangote company for paltry sum of 57k a month, an exhausting job for that matter! He still went ahead to sack all of us after 5-7 months.
Today, my monthly income has hit 900k. Though, like two third of it is still going into loan servicing but things are looking brighter each day.

Access to health care treatment is different from unrestricted access to the best healthcare care treatment which is what you said. Don't have a solid health insurance in the US, then you will find out how unimportant you are.

My cousin did. After the death of his parents, an aunt sent him to the US in 2019. In 2021, this dude returned to Naija citing one useless excuse that I can't understand. Like he literally bought ticket and boarded a plane himself from New York to Lagos before returning to the villa to the surprise of his siblings. Till now, everyone is still in shock. He lives in the villa currently doing nothing and surving from the little investment his elder bro is handling.

This dude in question is not a hard guy that will get himself in a drug related problem nor is he a womanizer or a troublesome person. And he has no plans on going back sincerely. Even if he did, I doubt anyone will make that mistake of funding his trip.

That's probably because he had seen it all. What is there other than working your ass off. But here, he's living in the villa feeding off his parents/brother investments.
