Don't mind him.
They leave Nigeria to UK with the mentality of plucking money from the trees.

A former colleague that travel for his Master's programme last year, got a job, sent the wife to be over within 3 months, currently he took his mum to the UK to help his wife with nanny work.

Most Nigerians who say this kinda comments are the ones without plans for themselves. They just lavish their money on frivolities and will later use some trashy excuses to cover up

SIRTee15:
See him mouth mentioning Canada and America as if na beans.

Reason why people go to uk is because it's the easiest and most convenient western country to enter.
Everybody going to UK know say na struggle but they don't have a choice.
The alternative is to sit your ass back home in naija and continue the struggle here.

So UK Japa is all about choosing where U want to live, struggle and hope for the best in the future. The choice is yours.

American visa is very hard for any category, and once Trump enters...it's going to be harder.
In fact knowing someone living in America nowadays is becoming a mirage.

To migrate to canada, U need close to 30 million naira. How many Nigerians can afford that amount.

Abeg enough with this lie

sharpwriter:
UK or any oyinbo land ain't heaven or paradise. Experiences are relative, if you already in any part of oyinbo land, you may be lucky doesn't mean others are... Same for those in naija.

As for ruling in hell (Naija), maybe you should go advise all these elites, celebrities (wealthy ones) business in Lagos, PH, Abuja, Anambra etc. Make dem vacate the good lives they have here to be a commoner abroad where they will stand 8 to 12 hours at a stretch (and only 15/30 mins break) in certain jobs.

Reason I said he had neither. Even many people abroad doesn't know what it means to live big in Nigeria, it's when they get to the abroad, they will know it's overrated.

Traveling about is not in every man's blood, whether rich or poor. There will always be individual differences in life's choices even in matters as low as food, life no be do or die.

And no matter how naija cast reach or how people despise it reach with dem words, those who go stay go stay, without blinking an eyelid or racking their brains on it.

Alliswell248:
You guys hands are faster than your brains.
You always show your bigotry at any moment.

Imagine if all the Yorubas in Lagos voted for Tinubu...do you think PO would have won.

Election is over....learn to move on.

You are de$troying PO chances with this childish talk.

diamond68:
he got 3 year mortgage ?

EleventhWeirdo:
When I see senseless comments like this, I don't blame you 1p0b lots, I only blame gullible Yorubas who supported p@nd0r@ in the last election, claiming to be liberals. If only they knew you lots would always see them as Tinubu supporters for tribal reasons... hehehe

Baba let him lie in peace naa.

Don’t come to Canada biko unless you have a job offer. Economy no dey smile . ( before you quote me i am referring to people who want to come here as students without adequate funds)

StreetFight:
Anybody advising Nigerians not to relocate to Europe or America is a witch and should be publicly executed.

BigDawsNet:
Japa crew should focus on Brazil

Get in legally
Find a wife and give birth

You both get residency and citizenship in few years

Brazil passport is very strong

CAD to naira was 250 naira when i came and could survive with a job for months. Today its 1092. A one bedroom studio when i came to Toronto was 1300 today’s its 2300. There are fewer jobs today than then. The target of my message are students who come here without any-money thinking they can pay for their fees and bills . But 6 months down no job. They are all over social media crying

emekatimsu:
The same Canada I will advise anyone not to come to if he or she is not financially buoyant. The truth is no place is easy but I feel it's easier to survive in Nigeria than this same Canada.

lastkingsman:
This rent na with bills inclusive or without?

Brother, take a deep breath, and compose yourself... Maybe read my response and his earlier post too.

We are specifically talking about Canada, not UK.

UK, in my honest opinion, is just a slightly upgraded version of Lagos! Na Africans know wetin dem keep for there.

I was very clear in my response... Canada's economy is on the mend just like most other top nations, but it's not in dire straits as described by the guy.

The main people struggling there and complaining bitterly are those who didn't come in legally as residents.

Please, fact check for yourself... Canada has a system of immigration where they bring in those with the educational and professional skills needed in the nation, and such easily get employment and accommodation.

They still have a system in place to help such people settle in easily.


Anyone entering via other means won't benefit from such system, and will struggle unimaginably.

Ajsmart:
He’s right! U.K is no longer migrant-friendly for Africans. Majority of people who have never lived in the U.K or most western nations for that matter think these types of videos were made to discourage others from relocating to the U.K when in fact they’re actually spitting facts as harsh as it may seem/sound!

Majority who ignore these video warnings eventually regret relocation and find themselves stuck after relocation as it becomes difficult to raise enough capital to go back home and start afresh. There are 3 people I personally know in this situation who wish they had heed previous warnings but unfortunately can’t go back to Nigeria! They are stuck between a rock and a hard place!

Jobs are hard to come by even with good qualifications; taxes can be as high as 50% depending on your line of work; rent or mortgage is a killer; the NHS is on the verge of collapse; cost of utilities are higher than normal; and the weather is never stable.

While one may get some relief in being in a society where electricity is constant; the overall economy of the U.K is dwindling. Citizens are getting taxed to death at every turn so most people only survive on a third of their income making it extremely hard to save for rainy days.

This advice is genuine but every man/woman will have to decide if relocation or staying put in Nigeria is better!

deavicky:
he sold all he had to be there. Coming back is more or less coming back to nothing.

MT:
At the bolded, so going to Canada and the US is a breeze ?

Anonimoux:
If I tell them, they will tell me to shut up that it's because I have never traveled before.

He is right, talking from personal experience. I won't say more. It is better to serve in heaven (UK, Germany, France) than to rule in hell (Naija)

Gadafii:
How can this type of videos get to the UK govt so that mvmv people like this can be deported home, since UK is not favorable, yet he still there

Nigerians are the only set of people in the entire world that make dvmb videos like this, advising Nigerians not to come to Canada because of hardship or what ever, meanwhile Chinese, Arab, Indians etc make efforts to bring more of their folks over there

Realtruth2023:
Why are you people so dull and dense that you now bring bigotry and politics to your statements? From the guy's how did you know he voted PO? Did he tell you he voted PO or you just assume that anyone who say the word " come and suffer in this harsh Tinubu regime" is automatically an IPOB and supporting PO? Must you bring PO into everything? Is it what they told you in your WhatsApp group to always link everything to PO and smear his name so that people will not choose him in 2027? For your information with the wrong moves Tinubu is making with the economy he is making PO's job very easy. Because now the north will not look at his side.

RaptorX:
He is not saying anything I have not been saying here on NL for years, that the UK is just a shithole with white people living there. Even the Canada he is recommending is another bigger shithole.
