Most times I come on this platform, I thank God for giving me the grace to leave una Nigeria when I did, and at the same time, I can't help but feel sorry for the poor and downtrodden. I wonder how people get by

Creamypie:

DeepSight:
Ha! - So some peeps here still remember that fateful night. Na wah for Naija oh.

DeepSight:
I have to say, this country is for the strong. It makes desperate attempts to squeeze the life out of its people. Everyday it tries again, and when you think you just have a breather, something new and vicious, and seemingly calculated to destroy you in particular, comes up.

DeepSight:
PS: You are very right about the fact that so many are suffering abroad. Someone who just left for Canada last year told me how he sells his plasma weekly to make ends meet. I was shocked to my bone.

Damn right we do.

There was a lot to learn from that thread. A lot.

A close relative relocated and was teased quite often by new friends about her very pronounced siege mentality. It took a lot of gentle coaxing by these friends for her to understand that the world (or the new country at least) wasn't just out to get her for no reason. Well...those of us she left behind are not leaving our mental bunkers anytime soon. Only the paranoid survive here.

Exactly.

The horror stories don't get as much airtime. But they are there. A lot of people here simply cannot conceive of how easy it is to fall from grace in these places. Some will come to a deeply personal understanding of the phrase 'one paycheck away from homelessness'...but their stories won't be widely broadcast. It is what it is.

The new frontier I foresee is young men of a certain age getting into big trouble (because of women) with the law in their new countries. There have been a few high profile cases and that number is almost certain to rise in the coming years. Far too many young (and not so young) men here think nothing of casual rape of an adult female or statutory rape of female teens. These young men have never paid any price for this here so its inevitable that they will be crushed when they come up against the system in other countries. That's when their 'japa' dream will turn into an absolute nightmare.
