TiredHuman:But then I don't understand why our African brothers over there will never encourage or advice someone willing to move. Is it envy or greediness or what? I've never had any of my guy abroad encourage me to move when I asked for advice. If things are difficult over there, why not come home? |

The Indians i observe finish school very quickly, their research is very fast, because they have great competition in their country, only the best become professors, and the Indian government pays them millions, due to their strong research base and knowledge. American and other multinational companies pay their best students to come and work in their countries. Because of the investment in education and encouraging the best students, Indians are much in the multinational companies, and America is interested in them, due to their very strong skills. skills and knowledge is very important. Many want to go abroad with little skill sets and they are not calm and cooperative. It is not easy for greedy little minded and self centered people. . due to our self centered and greedy nature you can see how the country is, nobody cooperates to help his community and people, only him and herself AnthonyAk: 4 Likes |

The sad thing about Nigeria now is that people are just looking to survive. It doesn't appear there is any ambition any more. If you are ambitious why would you want to japa? Nigeria has a population of over 200 Million. If you can't make it in Nigeria then the odds are you won't make it anywhere else. There a lot of false assumption. To really establish yourself in country like UK, it will take at least 10 years . If you are coming to the UK at 30 then you will only just start making it by around age 40. There are lots of young Nigerians here who are just sitting down not doing anything just like eran eleya waiting for a buyer. There are no short cuts in life. Life is difficult in Nigeria but it is also difficult everywhere as a black person you will be at the back of the queue. There are lots of young Nigerians who seems to be making it. https://search.techcrunch.com/search;_ylc=X3IDMgRncHJpZAMyUk9XQkh6TFJ2MndpclRGNjBiZHVBBG5fc3VnZwM4BHBvcwMwBHBxc3RyAwRwcXN0cmwDMARxc3RybAM3BHF1ZXJ5A25pZ2VyaWEEdF9zdG1wAzE2NTc4OTI1NTg-?p=nigeria&fr=techcrunch Join them and not the japa crew.

Raregem9000: Nobody owes you anything young man. You sound so entitled. That said, have you considered what it will take this so called cousin to invite you over? How is your relationship with this so called cousin? How often do you relate with each other? For your cousin to invite you over, it will cost him a few bucks, and he might need to take a leave from work so he could process your coming. A lot of things are involved, and it's nothing but inconvenience for the one inviting you. It's not about having money to pay everything, will you also pay for his transport and loss of wages should he leave work to process the documents? Only someone you have an amiable relationship with will be kind enough to help you. Unfortunately many of you have no solid relationships until e hook una for neck. Your best bet is through an agency, or do it yourself. Google is there! 10 Likes |

Can you say that again please. "REALITY OF LIFE". Abroad is over hyped that average Nigerians would love to move back home but too scared to do so. You miss lots from home and have little to show for it after paying your bills in abroad. Nobody likes to save money for 3 years and come home to spend it for 3 weeks. I pity some friends that goes to work and pick another shifts just to stay afloat cos people keep asking them for money. I own my business and still not enjoy US. Just tired and wish Naija can just be like SA and I for carry my bag the next day but Naija na die.... Greatzeus: 2 Likes |

SeriouslySense: Clearly you don't know anything about Indians. There is no race that hate each other like Indians. They're competitive, envious, sneaky, wicked, and highly divisive on language, tribe, religion, and region. India isn't one homogeneous country, it's a hodgepodge of castes and languages and norms. 10 Likes 2 Shares |

Nothing is hard or scary about abroad except bills All bills must be paid else you will evicted from or exist from using it anything you don’t pay But you see that house rent you pay yearly in Nigeria It is Monthly payment abroad fair to do so you are in trouble Nothing like gimme 2/3 month privilege You pay for everything including water and car Most cars are on loan but the jobs are available 4 Likes |

Sure i may not be correct in everything i say, certainly i should be corrected, but Indians have good reputation outside their country, i dont see them creating a scene, or being disorganized outside their country. But i have seen Africans get so mad and emotional and cause a scene. Or Africans form that they are too big to talk kindly to each other. You may see an African and he does not even say hello, or pretends to be too busy to notice. But i see Indians talk to each other and greet themselves outside, they are very calm and thoughtful, they speak kindly to themselves and go to do their activities Just learn new skills in Nigeria, encourage the innovative ones and work together stop waiting for greedy leaders, be the change.

Prerequisite of being a Nigerian is an attitude of entitlement. I hand a street bro 100k 5 years ago for traveling runz, He called 2 months later to let me know the runz did not click but the agent has a sure one for 1 million naira. This is someone I did not even know his last name.... I reconnect with an secondary school friend that I had not seen for 20 years, after talking for a week, he told me he just lost his job. I grab a phone, call him to sympathize with him and only for him to ask me some send him a car that he will find money for clearing....wow... AndroidAI: 3 Likes |

Not All our "African Brothers". There are ones who are willing and still eager to help you move bro. I think it's individual difference, I know someone from the neighboring village from mine that always move with 2 new people every year. The only condition is you must promise to take one person from your own place with you after 5yrs. I know of another who after staying in South Korea for 8 yrs came back and moved with 10 people because the company he works for needed workers and he convinced them his brothers can fit the gap! 11 Likes 1 Share |
