I do not need visas to visit more than 150 countries. It's no big deal to me bro and we are not in the same situations in life. I plan to tour most African countries and hope to have one or two houses in other West African countries.

No real joy in loneliness and severe weather abroad, I have seen, traveled, and done everything, bro. I am not discouraging you from traveling, go and have your own experience.

I don't believe in prayers, they are mere wishes to console the weak and helpless.
I don't have any intention to argue with you or convince you but I get where you are coming from. I think most times, in this part of the world, we love miracles which is a lazy way of expecting things to be done for you instead of putting in the work, then pray or both.

U see what I'm saying, Nigeria has already happen to you. See how you are all worked up for nothing, already angry and ready to fight. Modesty and love is not in your dictionary. And yeah, I valuewiping ass and securing people, so far I'm happy and live comfortable.

If one chronic disease catch u for Naija, that's when you will know the shithole you are in
Abeg get lost with that crap.

What chronic disease?

Stop making silly excuses. If you want to Japa, just get out, but don’t discourage others from staying in Nigeria. People are making MONEY here.

I have also lived abroad for years, and I can tell you for free that people there are not “gentle” .

Stay there deceiving yourself that the west is paradise.

Yes sir/ma.

How many people don learn Cake baking? How many people in Nigeria will be successful baking cakes?

We have a large population, kindly get on the street, run some interviews and check how many people get 2-5 different skills. Still life no balance.

How many people can get a well secured future baking cake in Nigeria? Those baking cake are now into makeup, fashion, wigs e.t.c. but how many have been successful? Some girls have had to add hookup as dm don tire.
Kindly ignore that moniker

I wish to go to Canada, I would need 6-10M to migrate. Alternatively as you said, I have a business idea which is selling Electrical appliances in whole sales but I couldn't gather money to start up the business.
You will NOT have 6 - 10m in savings after 6 years in Canada. I bet you.

Please don’t sell any landed property to finance going abroad. You will never get it back (90% probability).

REMEMBER THIS:

Your selfish and thoughtless parents put you in this position. It is wickedness to bring forth a child into the world with the financial means to set them up in life. That’s the tragedy of Africa and India…

For me I have done everything needed by myself and submitted but the only thing that remain is to pay the visa fee which is about 1.3m for my family of four.

Please I need a help, I lost my main job last your and I have family to take care of, since then I have been struggling, I wish to travel to any country that I can work and earn money to take care of my family and build a better future.

All I need is money which I don't have but I can still contribute for the processing of the document. My brother can support me in his little capacity but doesn't have enough for the whole process, I can say maybe 1 Million or more. Please help if you can. Thanks

I will never say that on social media bro. I make thousands of dollars weekly taking people abroad from all parts of the world. I have clients from Europe, the Caribbean, East Africa, and other West African countries. Hahaha.

In real life, I always say abroad is heaven and Nigeria is shit, that is how my company becomes profitable, so profitable that I pay some staff about N300/month in Nigeria. I am into Immigration, Education, HR Corporate training, and Tourism.

We are on the process of japa
Re: What Is Stopping You From Japa? Let’s Hear Your View by vexing(m): 1:58pm On Feb 24, 2025
I don't intend to japa because I am doing relatively fine in Nigeria. Secondly if I japa, I may not have the opportunity to visit my parents every year because of distance. So I prefer to be in Nigeria where I can be with my love ones.

Go and sit down my friend. You need to learn how to market and brand yourself. And also be PATIENT as your business grows.

It’s not just about learning a skill and expecting customers the same day, or expecting big profits within a few weeks, failing which you give up and start trying other things.

You must be patient with the business and let it grow.

[/b]The streets are filled with SUVs and exotic vehicles. These are your mates making money here.[b]
At the bolded, don't forget that some are into very shady businesses like corruption, kidnapping, money laundering, organ harvesting, ritualist, drugs.

Don't be deceived.

Me, I believe naija will still b great and better economically than the west... So I didn't even bother to Japa....

Instead I want to buy enough land to own more if naija earth space wen it will happen, the only p is that I am getting old ND the day keeps going father and father away....
Same lyrics my grand father said till he died. Mind you, Nigeria economy was better in their days compared to now. So continue hoping and believing until you grow old and join your ancestors.

Nigeria will never get better. Take it or you leave it. But that's the facts.

Dougad:
The last 50 years was the best period for poor countries to climb their way into prosperity. Several countries were able to do it—though at varying levels of success, but still they did. With the advent of Trump 2.0, the coming years are going to be brutal for countries like Nigeria.
Real! True at the last statement. Since Trump is the president of Nigeria, it’s only wise to know that things will get harder for Nigeria. Also, literally 98% of people in Nigeria currently are white people

Wait o, what’s happening? I thought yall hate Nigeria and will rather be in jail for eternity in America than to live as a billionaire in Nigeria? Ahaha what has changed? I thought 99% of Nigerians are poor and desperately want to leave the country? I can’t believe we still have Nigerian who want good things to happen to the country? Thought we all want evil to happen to Nigeria.

Or are yall lying on this thread? What happen to the japa wave of 2021 to 2022?
