I Have a question!
.
Please between US & UK which is preferable??

Thanks!

They both have their merits and demerits.

One week after a friend of mine migrated to the US in 2013, we were talking on phone and his exact words was "Nigerians are really suffering". Now mind you this was in 2013 before we got into the Buhari nightmare.

I read comments of people who were citing how America have a lot of issues ranging from homelessness, to gun violence and racial discrimination. And I just laughed, because all I saw was people who were trying very hard to convince themselves that they didn't get the short end of the stick. There is no place that doesn't have a problem, as long as you're on earth it will never be a bed of roses anywhere not even Finland and Netherlands as some mentioned. But in comparison to Nigeria, America is heaven.

Most people don't realize that majority of the homeless people in the US fall into these categories; addicts, people with mental health issues, recently unincacerated with no support system. Yes, there is gun violence being reported every now and again but that number is remotely minute compared to the number of people being killed in Nigeria due to growing insecurity. Racial discrimination to me is no different from the tribal discrimination that is rife even in this forum.

There are only few people in Nigeria who get an opportunity to live in the US for 1 month and are offered between remaining in the US and coming back to Nigeria that will choose Nigeria and they are always high class Nigerians and people who have and continue to milk this country dry.

US is dying. Depends on how you measure death. If you compare the US to African countries, yes, its heaven. If you compare it to other developed countries, its a shit hole, and I mean it literally

See I'm tired typing, because if I state writing about the US, it will be too long. Its my opinion sha. Better enter Canada or other good place, the US will not get better. But your love for the US shouldn't blind you to its fault. Its called patriotism. I like naija too, but Nigeria is the earthly version of hell for most Nigerians.

From health care to homeless people, indebted and depressed and fat population. Your govt will rather bomb a poor farmer in middle east that earns 50 usd a month instead of house the homeless. How is that a good country?

I know both countries very well like the back of my palm, and I can tell you the US is not dying (atleast not in our generation). Lots of Canadians still migrate south in large numbers. You rarely find Americans moving to Canada. Canadians can literally double their wages by moving to the US and tax is lower, cost of housing is lower, groceries are cheaper, gas is cheaper, US dollar is stronger than Canadian dollar, living expenses are cheaper e.t.c even some Canadians with money go to the US for faster healthcare services.

Ps: every developed country has homeless people, indebted and depressed and fat population. US is not alone in these aspects.

So you think the US is dying becuase of past war policies on Iraq or Afghanistan?

redcliff:


Your case is a rare and a lost one. Your last point confirmed it.

If you think I’m the only one with that mindset. Then you are wrong. Nigerians that choose to stay back with their grown children abroad after they have retired are more than those that come back because they need good medical care in their old age that they cannot get in Nigeria.

Also they need their children that will never follow them around them. They won’t come back to Nigeria so they can die of loneliness because at this time, no extended family member would give a damn about them since they no more have money to throw around as they used to. You only know about the returnees.

I finally arrived in America.

Can't believe Victor Divine is in yankee.

I live in Willowbrook, Houston, Texas.

It has always been a dream since I was 10, now 19 and my dream is reality.

I will soon work my way to NY to recide in Alabama.

My dream of becoming Governor of New York, U.S Secretary of State and subsequently becoming U.S President (after we amend the constitution to make naturalized citizens eligible to run for the Presidency) is materializing.


Just a week plus here, I know the difference between a first world country and a third world shithole.



I implore all of you to work your ass off to the U.S and live that shithole to your selfish politicians.

#GodBlessAmerica!!!

Alabama is not in NY..you sure say you dey tell us truth..lol

Everything you put up here is not true.

1: Since I moved to the US, I never missed Nigeria or anyone except my parents.
2: I don’t wish I could change anything in Nigeria anymore because time waits for nobody. Enjoy your life now and stop worrying about a country you have no power to change due to corrupt politicians. Nigeria will better. So they say since I was born. We are all getting close to old age everyday
3: I feel welcome. You will only feel unwelcome if you are mixing with the wrong people
4: I eat most of the food I used to eat in Nigeria because we have African stores here. So I don’t miss the food
5: The greatest depression comes from living in a country like Nigeria. You are even depressed right now living in Nigeria but you don’t know it. You will know not until you come here.
6: I’m not part of such people. I don’t follow Nigerian news or politics more than I follow the ones in my new country
7: I’m at a point of no return to Nigeria. Why do you think this trend will matter to me? Of course it won’t

racism never slap you thoroughly with "you have an accent, where are you from originally" flying kick as jara

bezimo:

There is actually a town called Alabama in New York. So dude may know what he is talking about actually.

Maybe he has family there.

When you're proud of who you are and where you're from. That question will not affect you.

Same here, I still chopped better pounded yam twice this week already with better Titus fish and efo euro laced with oporoko, and washed them down with Heineken.

I might even do goat or cowtail/foot peppersoup tonight

While Nigeria, I was not loved by everyone. There were people that hated me and people that like me. How is that experience different from racism? It’s even worse since it’s coming from your own people

mamagee3:

Yes…I drive there often

It’s right next to Stafford

Ok. There is a convention coming soon there. I might attend

MALIGNANTGuest:

Welcome Again, Victor.
My simple ADVICE....
AVOID WOMEN now that you are here!
I know they would have pulled your ears.

IF you can't avoid them, please try and acquire lots of CAMERA vests, caps, pre installed camera wristwatches. Surround yourself with Camera. Never hesitate. Welcome Again!

Avoid them?Is that even possible?But then on a lighter mood if he's not that good looking women go dey avoid him too na?As the women there dey quickly recognize people coming from Africa and sometimes even dey comedy mock their accent and all that .Esp those AA ladies.Mostly wanna associate with their fellow AA men

okuta007:

That's not racism but curiousity. If I meet a man with an accent in Nigeria, I will also ask if he is from Ghana or Gambia or Russia or Ukraine.

My new neighbor still asked me the same question on Sunday, gladly she did not give me flying kick as Jara.

Everything is not racism abeg

At the bolded.........That is the only way they can maintain their competitive edge else other countries will keep growing at an alarming rate and not subject to their rules or opinions.

Without external wars, the US economy would have gone down. It is what sustains it

The US don jam their match. I think say dem go fight Russia after invading Ukraine. They bomb only weak countries. A Paper Tiger. If you refuse to improve and grow, others that are doing such will overtake you. You cant run faster by cutting off others' legs, that's the definition of a looser.

This decade will be tough for the yankees. Either they improve their country and be an asset to the international economy, or watch how the world is distancing itself away from them and aligning with China/Russia duo. The simple fact that most countries except their EU puppets refuse to sanction Russia but still do business with it, is a loud proof of how the world is sick and tired of the yankees.

xandy84:
How do the whole conversation degenerate into that level. Some Naija folks can't be help.. I am Virginia Beach.. Open to chat....

Not far from me

LienwaltAbel:
US that it's citizens are complaining about from now till tomorrow. The same US that is riddled with homelessness, gun violence and all sorts of rubbish. If you wan Japa better go to Finland or the Netherlands.

But I heard a state in America called California is richer than all the states in Nigeria combined together

etrange:
Welcome to NA. Happy for you. But what's this attitude of calling your country a shit hole because a white man called it that? Does it make you more yankee or does it add any value to the country? You'd be OK when people in the US refer to you as someone from a shit hole? Staying in the US doesn’t make you any less Nigerian and if you achieve your dreams of becoming a statesman, you must first learn patriotism.

Nigeria is a Shit hole, I have my backing statistics, a country that only have greedy corrupt politicians in leadership positions. No light, employment, food, good road and to cap it the capital poverty of the world and many more negatives stuffs

patrickcollins:

a small country in Europe called Belgium more productive than a third of Africa as in (1/3) of Africa.

Well, you are right but am still have a cold feet for Russia/china with experience with them.
From my experience, US may be a devil but I think without them, china/Russia will unleash subjugation we have never experienced before. The US is really the one checkmating them but it is well, let’s see how everything plays out.

Hit me up then. We can relate...

TheEnforcer:
Not far from me

ChiefJusticeFuc:


That's mostly in liberal controlled urban shitslums

US still has far better places to live a good secured prosperous let fe than Canada, Australia and EU that is fast turning to a communist state.

What do you mean Communist state?

What are your experience?

As far as I can see, I don't think they will be worse, judging from their history. Russia has never being and don't want to be a global policeman, same as China. China is a civilisation masked as a country.

No where in the history of China has they colonised, enslaved, raped and destroy their neighbours. And I'm talking about a country with at least five thousand years of documented history under its belt.

Now I'm asking you, please point one single time China invaded its neighbour for the past five thousand years, just one. I await your answer. Meanwhile, the US is just about 300 years old since its founding, and look at the mess it has caused globally.

As for Russia, after the cold War and the disintegration of the Ussr, every war it entered since then was provoked, such as the Georgian and current Ukrainian war. Which else? So why fear them? Your fears are unwarranted.

These countries want to be left alone. But the US keep provoking them in a desperate hope to break them into pieces and control them, since they are the challenger to its global hegemony and wet dream to enslave the world permanently.

[quote author=Lionnation post=114038328] common Sense should tell you that for a 19 year old to jappa to the use, that his parents are well to do to secure him any visa necessary[/quote you can stiill make your point without the subtle insult.Moreover,I didn't direct the question to you!

You cannot really blame people bro. These 2 countries have both been blackmailed by either Hollywood or the MSM. The US has brainwashed people to see the aggressor as the savior and the savior as the aggressor.

The Anglos days are coming to an end tho.
