You are wrong and this write up you just did is based on assumption, stereotyping and full of prejudice. I am a manger and above band 8, I mange a team of 12 supervisors who are from every nationality and they in turn have up to a group of 16 men with them. I am Black, I am a Nigeran and I'm proud. In the west you will face racism, in Nigeria you shall face tribalism, the watch word for you is to face the reality on ground and deal with it head on. Every battle had been won by a strong headed person. I have friends who are Lawyers, barristers ,some even mayors. We al Nigerians. Go to the ministry of justice, the home office .Unless you are telling me the USA is different?

When did you actually immigrate to the US?

So, you do not know that there are serious racial inequality in the US.

Being black-skinned will create a systemic obstacle for you in the States. We are at the lowest rung of the ladder as africans. Do you think you are classed the same as an African-American?

But sorry a toilet cleaner wont be able to afford a home.

Even if he takes a mortgage it will take him like 35yrs.

35yrs to pay or 35years to be eligible to pay?

You don’t know how abroad works, lol, mortgage in abroad is ten times worth it than Nigeria, you can do a remortgage, get a large sum from that after 5-10 years, if the price of the house has risen. So many benefit I can’t explain, you clearly don’t know anything about mortgage.

I'm not in the US, Im in the uk and migrated 2000

ednut1:
this is 2024 not 1994. A bank manager in Nigeria with relevant certifications will get a position in banks in USA or Canada. I currently work for an American bank in Canada. All these cleaner , wash dead body talks are stale 🥱

Bro, did you work with a Nigerian bank before you left for Canada?

which ever way we look at it, one thing this writeup or the author just proved, is that the Nigerian Politicians have successfully made nigeria a Shithole

very pathetic situation we finds ourselves, shameless evil parading themselves as rulers/politicians

I met an uber driver on uk that earns £2000 a week after expenses. I just weak

erico2k2:
benefit earners are not homeless, certain people knowing make themselves homeless so the state can house them, I gave a section 13 and 18 otice to a tenant, and the council housed them after 6 onths. Now the man is delivering for Amazon, the council cannot ask him to quit as he is working pastime and living there still .There is a lot people get away with in the Uk trust me.Do you know if ur Mum is old you can have a mobility car and pay just £50 2wards it each month and its a brand new car?

I never called benefit earners homeless, I said some of them were homeless because the Governemt cannot provide council houses to them and the private landlords are not accepting them.

Earning benefit should not be anyone's dream. The government is tired too, hence the reason they keep cutting down on the benefits. How much is the "haandouts" we are even talking about here ? Paltry sum.

Make una get shame small na? Moeny is not everything

Human dignity matters! Yes life abroad is better no doubt but it is better to driver Uber and do dash runs there than clean toilets

I can't do caregiver, toilet cleaning and plate washing jobs abroad, it is not pride it is what it is

I rather make all the necessary preparations before leaving. Even if things go south over there I won't wash toilets!

That's according to what he TOLD you he earns.

Who told you there are no robbers abroad? Have you been to Compton? Have you been to Brixton? When you visit these places and know how things a gwan ina di hood, thank me later.

I know, I only used it as a reference to say, even those who do not work live in a good house.

Do we really need threads like this again??
Everyone should be made to take decisions that are suitable for them

Mr man, it's true that I have never been in the uk and may not get my figures exactly right, but bottom-line I'm pointing out to you which you can't deny is that a pound to N2150 does not mean £1 will buy you exact equivalent of N2150 in the uk.
Because they have market issues too, which are clearly different from what is obtainable in Nigeria.

The best you can do is to correct my figures if you have been in the uk before and accept that fact

MT:

you think they dont?
There was a video of an attorney doing Ubar in the US, he was harassed by police and they did not know who he was. The video was uploaded on YouTube.

erico2k2:
So where should an immigrant start?
You lot do not even realize that the English and the Americans actually clean toilets.

A person who migrates from a rural village in Edo State to Benin City, but still mentally and financially lives as if they are in their village, will likely agree with the original perspective. The stark differences in income and living standards between the two locations shape their views.

Sometimes some arguments limits your ability to gain more from realistic views, yours my friend falls short of that, so I resign, there are those that will match ur IQ on here, Engage them plz, no offence.

let me tell you something, today £1=2150, so a poor man can not migrate, as things stands the migration rout today is 95% COS, which now cost more thanN35M, So tell me sir, Do you think a person with the ability to raise such sum is naïve or have a poor living standard?

hotwax:
he is referring to junks and GMO foods that make them bloatup and start battling diabetes and cancer

Oh ok

Bankowner:
And what do you say about a banker who has worked over 20 years and still doesn't have his own house? Impossible, you will say. But it is true. And not that he is wasteful or anything.

Not possible

ThierryJay:
Bro, did you work with a Nigerian bank before you left for Canada?

had a short stint as a graduate trainee in a 9ja bank before moving to an audit firm in in Nigeria . Continued at same audit firm when i got to Canada before moving to the american bank 😉

If you do your research properly you'd find out that the op likely has letters "C" and "H" in his or her name.Most of them feel like any land outside Nigeria is an El Dorado.

TheBillyonaire:
Which place in Nigeria did you live before traveling. As a Nigerian, I have been to crazily poor interior villages. If people from such villages travel abroad, the things they mention that they are enjoying abroad is similar lifestyle some of us live in Nigeria and additionally we have multiple maids and specialized handy men and domestic staff at our beck and call. This OP is from such poor village.

Just make your point and move on.

No need to be proud of using minors for slave labor and maltreating them at the same time.

How do most people who poorly treat and pay their househelps (maids) peanuts sleep well at night?

Worst of all, how do you manage to be so proud of it?

When we say a toilet cleaner in USA, Canada, UK, Australia is better than the manger of zenith bank, what we mean is that the toilet cleaner will never suffer what you are currently suffering in Nigeria.

Example include:

A. A toilet cleaner will never queue for fuel.
B. A toilet cleaner is less likely to be kidnapped in those countries
C. A toilet cleaner has 24/7 electricity.
D. A toilet cleaner has access to excellent Medicare.
E. A toilet cleaner is less likely exposed to armed robbers
F. A toilet cleaner eats better food and fruits than your bank manager.
G A toilet cleaner has access to good amenities
H. A toilet cleaner may have his children schooling for free in primary and high school
I. A toilet cleaner has a longer live expectancy than your bank manager in Nigeria.

Beautifully articulated YET, May I never be a toilet cleaner, irrespective.[b][/b]

This is a Toilet man thinking/mindset..
Some of u just escape from village run go abroad and u think everyone reasons like u.
Now that u are abroad, y dont u leave the
bank managers to enjoy Naija in peace
Abi na by force?? Everyone cant live abroad so what is your problem?? Toilet cleaner!!!

Rossikk:
Unlikely to own a car in the first place.



A toilet cleaner won't be kidnapped in Nigeria either. Use your brain.



Anyone in Nigeria with a cheap generator can have 24/7 electricity.



Not necessarily. There are very long waiting lists for operations and surgery in the UK's NHS for example. You have to wait YEARS for an operation in some cases. Many perish before their turn. Only the rich who can afford the monstrously expensive private hospitals can be guaranteed of ''excellent medicare''. SAME AS IN NIGERIA.



A toilet cleaner is more likely to be shot in America or stabbed in the UK, or get his house burgled, than meet any armed robbers in Nigeria.



WRONG. Toilet cleaners in the west are among the underclass who tend to eat cheap, processed foods like frozen pizza, frozen chips, and eat junk food. A Nigerian bank manger eats fresh, highly nutritious, natural, organic foods.



Not necessarily. Some of them live in terrible places a Nigerian bank manager could never live.



Free education is not new to Nigeria. How old are you?



What studies have you conducted to make that claim?

You can't just come online and make outrageous claims from your big, loud IPOB terrorist OUTCAST lips.

IPOB don suffer!

Who told you that?? If you have 3-4 cleaning contracts you can afford one in the long run and even afford to hire a crew that can help you.

Yes,
I have gotten my figures right now

5kg garri(which is equivalent to half paint in Nigeria) is sold £7.99 in the uk which is equivalent to £8

And you say £1 is N2150

Calculate it
£2150 × 8 = N17,200

Meaning, a seller in the uk will accept N17,200 from you for half paint of garri that we buy N1500 here in Nigeria.

This is what a Nigerian toilet cleaner in uk is going through just to get garri that she is more adapted to, than any other food.

Make the op go rest o

MT:
Most of what you typed was misleading.

It was shocking that despite claiming to live in the US for many years, you could not understand that those cars you wrote that your warehouse colleagues were riding were being financed and not fully paid for. They must pay certain amount, depending on the choice of car, every month, otherwise the car will be taken from them.

You mentioned many countries and made US to be king of all without any justification. Each individual has a unique case, and you can’t just generalise.

Maybe your lack of education made you think a toilet cleaner is better than a bank manager in Nigeria.

This is why the whites call blacks names; how you guys try hard to even bring this topic to the cyberspace is shocking. These new sets of japa are the worse, individuals with no hope of getting visas are now having gullible opinion.

Mr. Man, you have just penned down gibberish.

like I said
Do with the info how ever it fits you
And lemme ask what is wrong in buying a car and paying till you own it
We are so gullible in Nigeria and see these things that are put in place to make life easy for us a big deal
Come to chicago and see how the Latinos who dominate the cleaning industry are using to do what a bank manager can never do in Nigeria except he do fraud in it

As a toilet cleaner you’re entitled to benefits
Do you know what that means

Chai
Here a manager isn’t bigger than a toilet cleaner cause both can afford what each other want

A toilet cleaner have vacation leave
A toilet cleaner has PTO which is paid time off
A toilet cleaner can buy ticket and say he or she is going on vacation in Bahamas
How many bank manager can do that
How man bank manager has the kind of benefits a cleaners has here

Here there is dignity in labour
Whatever job you find your self
No one is bigger than you

Any it your choice think and feel how ever you want

I’m just giving you my personal experience
I’ve been to Canada
I know people who stay these countries and when I compare America is doing better
But it is what it is sha
