Nigerians have been leaving the country since 1960. Those who want to leave are free to leave. Those who wish to remain are free to remain. I myself use to live in Canada and have worked in Europe and America. The truth is, it is all about our perspective to life. As for me, with my exposures, there is no big deal outside the shores of Nigeria. I for one, I am most comfortable in Nigeria than any where on planet Earth.

But to be honest. Peter Obi is a born failure, a loser with a very bad omen. We are too luck to have Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu as Nigeria's next President, especially his Vice, Senator Shettima. We are very optimistic that they HAVE delivered not WILL delivered. The HAVE already.

Obi can't lead Nigeria. Nigeria is too big for Peter Obi just like Lagos is too big for GRV.
you are calling someone who is doing better than you in All aspect of life a Born failure then what are you?

@OP.


I need to recommend you for a fictional writing prize award. You have really tried with this piece of fantasy writing.


My only suggestion is that you should set your imagination higher.

Why not say the entire Nigeria don japa for fear of Tinubu's rule? That will even captivate attention more.

I spoke with my colleague who is a Yoruba Muslim and I told him that Tinubu is just what Awolowo was to Yorubas in those days
My guy nearly slapped me..he told me that Tinubu can never be like Awolowo

I've never had problem with Ashiwaju apart from the fact he brought a disaster to power.
Nonetheless, I am optimistic .
Keeping my fingers crossed.

As someone that travels outside the shores of Nigeria quite often due to the Nature of my Job as well as vacation. I frequently do encounter fellow Nigerians exiting and returning to Nigeria at various transit points in Europe and North America.

I was of the opinion that the quantum of Nigeria making the exit or japa move would drastically reduce after the election considering the interest of the Nigeria diaspora community in the last election but to my utmost chagrin, the volume have more or less quadrupled.
Middle Class Nigerians are leaving the country in droves. One just needs to go to Hartsfield–Jackson Atlanta International Airport, Chicago O'Hare International Airport, Trudeau International Airport Montreal, Toronto Pearson Airport. London Heathrow, George Bush Intercontinental Airport Houston, etc. to see things.

These trends only show one thing; Nigerians do not have confidence in Tinubu and his APC government to change our downward trajectory. No one wants the country to collapse on his head.

See Buhari and Tinubu jumping around for a Private refinery enabled and facilitated by Jonathan PDP government while the Nigerian government owned refineries in PHC, Warri and Kaduna remained comatose throughout their eight year in power. What a shame!

On my transit through Istanbul(IST) airport yesterday I saw hundreds of Nigerians with majority of them our brothers from the great Yoruba race trying to get connection flights to every imaginable place on earth. Everyone with Green passport except if you are Miles&Smiles member and or Business Class will have to go through enclosed full-body scanners plus aggressive pat-down while other nationalities just walkthrough the scanning system. You can easily see many of these economic migrant Nigerians emerging at the other end of the immigration line, dishevelled, disoriented with heads bowed in shame and trepidation. This is just the first leg of the travel. They will meet even more stringent shakedown as they transverse Europe and North America to reach their destination so as to escape hardship and impending poverty from a country more naturally endowed than most of the countries they are heading to. Their only sin is being born in Nigeria and ben saddled with wicked and devilish buccaneers and human destiny merchants.

The humiliation of our folks is tantamount to humiliation of Nigeria as a country.

I was moved to ask one incidentally a Yoruba Muslim if he would not have stayed to enjoy BAT government his kinsmen worked so hard to enthrone and his response dumbfounded me.

He said that they never meant all those things rather were afraid of Igbos and South Southerners gloating over possible Obi's win.
I was so enraged about this assertion. What has mere gloating got to do with the wellbeing of the country that these folks have to rig/manipulate to install an expired man to run a sick nation.

Now many of our people including the diehard religious irredentist and tribal bigots are scampering out in mass just in time before the noose tightens further as being floated in the UK, Canada and possible Australia parliaments around Nigerian emigrating to their country.
The Northerners can be forgiven as they rarely japa except to Sudan and Saudi Arabia but we should not forgive these religious irredentist and tribal bigots for bringing the country to this unforgivable opprobrium.

I hope we will change our attitude concerning getting the right people at the helms of affiars irrespective of religious or tribal affiliation sooner rather than later as we may not have any country left if we continue on this irrelevant but destructive "d*ck" measuring contestation.
Nice story.

"Contestation indeed"

Your theory is fallacious.

This period is school period, summer is coming and schools will be resuming shortly, this happened last year and it was even worse.
Anybody travelling today did not likely start travel preparations in February

Indeed. Nigerians have been fleeing Nigeria since time immemorial because of the belief that the grass is greener on the other side which it is sometimes.

Yet it is not hard to tell OP is sentimental, biased and a propagandist at best or shameless liar at worst.

It cannot stand the test of logic that Tinubu's win, when he is factually and arguably the best and most progressive Nigerian political leader since 1999, has sparked mass exist from Nigerian. Completely infantile and illogical reasoning.

No one says that Nigerians have not been emigrating since time immemorial.

I only told you about my recent experiences compared to what I used to see.

Yes Jonathan facilitated Dangote refinery but Buhari, Tinubu and APC promised us that they would fixed our two Refineries in PHC, one in Warri and the last one in kaduna. I am sure many Nigerians including my humble self voted for them on that promise. What did they do?
Nothing till date!

On the contrary, many Obidients are very patriotic. many of us have travelled far and wide and see what government is all about and what a good and prudent government can do. Most of those countries are not in Emilokan business but are voting based on competency hence the reflection on their development.

Please lets be less sentimental and be more factual.

JagabanBorgu:
Jonathan facilitated Dangote's refinery but he can't be blamed for the refineries that are not functioning.
Many of u Obi supporters h8 Nigèria so much that anything that sounds like success story itches u.
Nigèriàñs have been traveling out of the country since the 20th century.
Today we have so many black Americans, so many black people in England who are Americans and English today because their grand parents grew up in Europe, America, gave birth to their parents and their parents gave birth to them, yet they are Nîgeriàns.
So if Nigèriàñs started leaving the country since Buhari came to power, how did those people come about?
ChiIdren of h8.

We should be less sentimental and more factual but you say voting Obi is a sign of competence?
U have seen what a prudent góvèrñment can do, did u see Obi do those things in his 8 years in Anambra?
Why do u guys think we are f00Is?
Obi is competent and Anambra is d sh*t it is now?
If Obi is competent, he won't be hiding in Lagos, he should be living with his competent works in Anambra.
U and I know u didn't vote Buhari.
We that voted him know his promises were bogus promises just like what Obi is promising now, that's why we avoid bogus promises and go for proven works and track records, things we can see and feel.
A competent man called Obi couldn't provide basic amenities such as clean water for his state, in ur travels, the ones u refer to as competent didn't provide clean water too?
Did they build roads that water will swallow at the slightest rainfall?
Did doctors go on 13 months strike in those competent góvèrñments?
