Klass99:oh yeah Julia is doing big things in Africa and has built a great life for herself. She is definitely an inspiration for the anti japa movement and her videos would be a great source of succour to someone feeling blue because everybody they know has japa. But truthfully I do not bother to Advice anyone. You must go and make your own mistake or then again it could be your blessing. It's a mistake for most but a blessing for a few so I just let each man truck his or her own path. What you meet there you will come and tell us lol. Yeah that mod in that section is just a weirdo.

Talentuex: I would not advise advanced-age folks with huge investments to japa. However, they should plan for their kids' education and citizenship. Having African country citizenship can be quite restrictive when it comes to assessing economic opportunities in the global economy. Across the continent, the unemployment rates are extremely high, and to think the continent has more young people than elsewhere. 2 Likes 1 Share |

MrBrownJay1: It is possible and can even cost more than that if it is in London (like the YT video says), and she targets top universities in the city. For instance, MSc Computer Science at Imperial College costs 40K pounds for foreigners. Almost all STEM courses at UCL, KCL or management programs at LSE or Warwick or Durham are close to 30K pounds or above the figure. Tuition fees alone. So, it is possible. 2 Likes 1 Share |

The problem with people like OP is their sheer hypocrisy and wickedness. OP is a British citizen and he supports Tinubu and APC. I can never take such people to be serious. They preach what they don't practice and practice what they don't preach. They are the first to shout rAcIsm but carry tribalism for head like gala. I know their antics so well. Only naive and ignorant people can be deceived by them. 12 Likes |

jidobaba: They return only to support politicians that implement policies which made them flee in the first place. Honestly, sometimes, I see reason some whites would not have a black person, especially those who were bred in Nigeria to man political positions except as a diversity token. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Gerrard59: i do understand that some schools in the UK cost money but moving to London doesnt cost as much.... a simple cheaper course can get them to the UK, and then they can decide whether to have a "better" course or not. i would rather have said:" going to a fancy school in the UK cost a lot of money" |

livingstone2013: Unless he intends to return to Nigeria in the nearest future, it is not advisable to convert your abroad earnings to naira. it makes no economic sense because you are not spending naira in the abroad. I rather convert it do dollars. Also, even with returning to Nigeria, inflation would have reduced the spending power of his savings, except he has a base to build on using the savings. 4 Likes 2 Shares |

sukkot: Explain like I am five years, what is your problem with paying taxes aka bills? You think people living in Port-harcourt, Lagos and even Kano do not pay bills? I am a sucker for low taxes, especially towards businesses, but I see/understand the need for taxes. You want a functioning society without paying taxes? How come? You want good roads yet you whine about paying taxes? Are people in Nigeria getting water for free? Don't they pay school fees notwithstanding the strike actions? Don't they pay security levies here and there even to bandits? You see, this is my problem with Agbado disciples. The way all of you people reason is scary and leaves much to be desired. You people are a perfect example for the existence of psychiatrists. 10 Likes 2 Shares |

Gerrard59:I actually have no problem with taxes . It's just that that volume of taxation would not be necessary if they are not starting wars all over the globe. Spend billions and trillions of pounds on weaponry and so you have to tax me to deAth to be able to buy your toys. When the UK are testing their bombs they can detonate a few in the desert. Those few bombs they wAsted in the desert cost taxpayers maybe like 500 million dollars just destroyed in the desert. Point here is I am being robbed so you can amass enough weapons to fight wars 5 Likes 2 Shares |

See many ignorant people. Rather all jobs are important and good. I laugh how many posts mocked and derided uber drivers, security jobs etc. I used to condemned things like that before, until I saw people with big savings that do just any job. All jobs are good. Use your time to do something. That is the key. Your american dream is under your feet, pick it up. 13 Likes 1 Share |

sukkot: Bullcrap! Why not drive across Nigeria anytime you like since it is safe? I have been driven to Kyoto late in the night, and the safety I experienced was priceless! I have never felt so safe in my life while on the road. I almost cried! You people just come here typing mumbo-jumbo. Few days ago, 46 people were murdered in a community in Benue. What did they do? Nothing! Today, 40 were slaughtered. Meanwhile, children as young as five use the train to move around unaccompanied and very are safe. Wouldn't you want that for others? Just as I expected, the most wicked people always quote the bible. After all, that was what you have been doing with your previous moniker. The same thing the rascal who calls himself Dayo Israel does. 12 Likes 1 Share |

sukkot: Another mumbo-jumbo. If that is the case, there would have been droves of people returning to Nigeria permanently. But that is not the case. Economics trumps psychology when it comes to migration. Someone who has been used to a very safe life would do everything to avoid returning to a place where going to Place gets him/her murdered for no reason whatsoever. The problem with you people is that you believe Nigeria is the only black-dominated place where people can retire to in a bid to achieve peace of mind. If children from black parents and even half-Japanese are not returning to Nigeria/other African countries, why would those in developed countries with substantial black populations do so? I have met biracials and was told they are not interested in moving to Africa. These people prefer here even though they are few blacks. Why? Economics. They get good jobs easily, the society is safe, the passport is strong and provides mobility etc. If they want to move, they head to the US because of the diversity and greater economic opportunities. Even on Twitter, when a black lady was lamenting the racism in the UK and asked for places where she would experience less racism, none of the black commenters mentioned a country in sub-Saharan Africa. Only white rednecks did in a bid to mock black people for refusing to move to the dominant black society. So, if bIracials in East Asia are not interested in moving to Africa, why should black folks in the west do? I understand the feeling of being amongst people who look like you, but humans protect their economic interests over their rights when push comes to shove. Humans will do anything to ensure the economics is stable before considering other issues. Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs says it all. As for black folks who will want to move to places where the inhabitants look like us, Barbados, Bahamas and Namibia dey. But even then, how many black folks across the rich world aka white man's countries are moving there? A very minute number because those places are not economically viable even though they are safe places. Mainland Chinese who are tired of the Chinese government are moving to Japan, South Korea and Singapore because of cultural affinity and, most importantly, because those countries can provide similar economic opportunities for them. Unless sub-Saharan African countries become rich, don't expect black folks in developed countries to move there. You should ask Wale Edun for some basic economic classes as you need one. 16 Likes 1 Share |

Yes, the world is a ghetto but some are more ghettoier than others. Because some places in Toronto have crimes does not make cities in the DRC less ghetto. 6 Likes 1 Share |

Gerrard59: Most registered company don’t pay tax here, except for the big companies. And nobody will hold you if you don’t declare your company tax return here. In the UK, even if you don’t make a dime from the company in a year, you still have to declare tax return. Other you get penalties that’d warrant you to pay fines. In Nigeria, I’ve never seen self employed people declaring tax returns. Over there, in so far you’re not working in a company where tax is being deducted, you have to declare your tax return year in year out, otherwise, you pay fines. You only are exempted from paying tax if you’re making anything less that £12k in a year. And £12k cannot even be enough for the bills you’d pay through the year. I repeat, we don’t pay tax at all here if you know how the tax system works in the UK. 3 Likes 1 Share |

sukkot: You are incredibly funny! Anyways, those whose dreams are beyond your adamant discredit here will still go ahead with their dreams. Doctor that just got licences was what I meant there.....fresh doctor that graduated and ready to treat people. I already left, I already made up my mind, I have no intention of being a travel agent so why would I embellish stories? My family doctor has become a friend, she is in my age group and a Nigerian too. It might be hard for you to believe that people become friends and talk sha... By the way, have you seen the new bill in the making where naija is trying to keep doctors from leaving Nigeria? Why do you think they are leaving if not to go earn and live better? You might have seen bad, a lot might have seen bad but there are several gazillion others that have seen good and they aren't returning to Nigeria. Abroad is different from abroad o. UK isn't Canada. Meanwhile, I'm kinda happy that nice people like you and some others are committed to staying in Nigeria. We cant all leave otherwise who will remain to help keep the country on the world map? May God continue to keep you guys safe and prosperous. Thank you for being patriotic 3 Likes |
