I remember when I advised my younger brother from traveling out around 2005. He wouldn't listen. This is someone who just got a good job after years of joblessness and just married too. He went and was deported. When I reminded him of my counsel, he said I didn't say it loud enough. As at today he has travelled on holiday twice outside Nigeria with his family. He will never relocate. At the end of the day the choice is yours and you live with it and its consequences. 7 Likes |

Chetas81: You who's not mentally challenged somehow managed to sit in your stuffy bedroom to determine other people's contribution to daily societal affairs abi? You first need a proper education to polish your public communication skills before being in any mental space to determine what people should do with their freewill. 4 Likes |

opicgif:Unstable OP. No one advised home based Nigerians not to Japa, they only gave brutal reality of what Nigerians go through there. It is up to you to prepare yourself for life over there or suffer the fate of the careless japa-ees. If you must go, be prepared for skilled jobs that are in demand. What's the point of going to join a saturated labour market that's lacking certain skilled hands. Instead fill the empty slots where skilled hands are scarce and not washing dead bodies or changing old mama diapers. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Europeans who escaped Europe to other countries during the World Wars made money and returned to Europe to build industries after the war. But in Nigeria, Islamic extremists and the inept leaders that emerge from the fraudulent political structure of Nigeria would not allow for a peaceful and conducive environment for Nigeria to enable Nigerians who fled abroad to return to invest in Nigeria. The Nigerians left in Nigeria have been impoverished to the bone marrow by inept leadership and Islamic extremists. 1 Like |

Fahvvy:The point still stands. You don’t come on a thread chastising people for advising people not to go and then advise people to go. It’s hypocritical!!! The things is most people giving advice have no experience of living abroad…..have you ever lived abroad that you are giving advice? 4 Likes |

I understand the point from both sides If you want to move to the UK, for example and want to spend like 20m to 40m to relocate yourself, wife and kids…..hmmm it may be wise to reconsider it If you get Canada or the US no even think am just go. It’s understanding the different countries and their dynamics 1 Like |

Fahvvy: The first time my sister entered Europe, she wondered why Europeans do leave Europe for Nigeria, she was specific that UK is better than Nigeria in all ramifications; that what they call unemployment over there is what many people are celebrating here as being gainfully employed. My friend who has been in Athens for 5 years told me that, there is no mosquito there, chicken which is seen as a meat for special season/occasion is everyday meat there. That during COVID-19 lockdown, ppl do send their request (foodstuffs i.e palliative from the government) and it will be delivered at their doorstep. The truth remains that Nigerians are use to suffering and we have "accepted" it as our fate. 3 Likes |

Imagine say u call police to report a case of theft in the middle of the night only for them to ask you to send them #10k for fuel n mobilisation first, then when they arrive like 3hrs after the report they arrest everyone in the house and on the street, it doesn't matter where you're coming from or going to then collect better beating before being jam-packed in a smelling cell then asked to start calling your people for bail of #50k for street passerbys and #100k for tenants of the burgled building then #30k for you wey call them. Mad oooo! Imagine a cleaner in a hospital giving you a list of things to buy while telling one of ur twin is dead n u should hurry b4 the remaining one die💀 3 Likes |

Then they will travel with a bad character and become nuisances in other places. And then people will run away from them and they cry me me me. We have an evil mind, and its better to just stay where we are and be doing useless things, just like those young Nigerian boys that did sex extortion of a young American, and he committed suicide because they released some nude pictures on Instagram. And the story is spreading like wild fire in USA. Let them go there they will treat them like the evil mind they are. So they are complaining like the evil mind they have. zumbigbo: 1 Like |

Why would anyone tell you not to japa and you will accept it? The decision is entirely yours to make and take not minding what you're told. Being abroad is not eldorado but if you believe you can make a way for yourself, why let anyone stop you? Over here, you have to work for your pay. There's nothing like you miss work for a day or two but still get your full salary as it is in Nigeria. You don't work your hours, you don't get paid. Your landlord will not come to knock at your door for rent, you don't pay by the first day of the month, you stand the risk of being booted out. No long thing! If you have the opportunity to japa, please take it but prepare yourself for the initial rough period you will pass through. Except of course you come with plenty cash from naija. Peace. 3 Likes 2 Shares |

I usually say this- in as much as someone is in a very bad situation doesn't mean he cannot find himself in a worse situation if he makes a wrong decision!! So I would expect a reasonable person to not just throw away the advice about not relocate abroad but to make informed findings on whether he could be worse off over there or not and what are the chances! It is a FOOLISH person that will hear warnings and just TOTALLY DISREGARD the warnings opicgif: 2 Likes |

Abi, who is holding them. One thing i have observed is that we have an evil mind, including me, and it always shows, just like today, they want others to be the source of their problems. Instead of explaining why it is good to travel out, you are blaming other people, be blaming other people until the next world, never accept responsibility, that the evil in in US all. If you cannot be decent and be the change then keep creating illusionary enemies. Bankowner: |
