There is nothing hidden about these things tbh...!

1. Many Nigerians can never afford to Japa. Only a tiny percentage of the highly privileged among us can afford it.

2. Those who end up in problems are the ones who relocate without due diligence... Those who are clearly not needed professionally in those nations.

3. Talking about depressed Nigerians abroad when far more are depressed in Nigeria is weird and amusing... Our suicide rate in Nigeria has been steadily climbing for close to a decade now.

4. Finally, the undue focus on people leaving the nation when less is being done to support and develop the many more unable to leave, through proper leadership, simply borders on misplaced priorities.

It sounds funny how you guys feel traveling abroad is an achievement.. And what makes you feel those in Nigeria are those that can't afford to travel?

You are the one saying that... I never even implied it.

Maybe it's your insecurity.

I stated facts... Maybe do some research.

Is it the over 80% of Nigerians struggling to feed that can Japa?!!

Why not check the number of Nigerian adults with passports first.

People wey never get passport na them wan relocate?!


Let me say it again... Abike Dabiri needs a proper job!

Hammering and focusing on less than 20% of our population relocating or planning to relocate while majority living here are struggling to survive makes no sense.

Please, try to stay on topic.

Na all those dumps wey abroadians dey do dey make people think say Japa na bed of roses. I was all about Japa before but now I've seen the light. Only thing that makes me wanna Japa is to add to my plethora of Certificates.

Too many generalization.

Is life in Nigeria a bed of roses?
Where abroad are you talking about specifically?
What "work" roles are you talking about?
Steady light is not cheap in Nigeria either.
Where in Africa are you talking about and what are those advantages?
Contentment is not limited to African soil, you could also be contented abroad and many Nigerians abroad are very very contented.
rent for half of a one room abroad monthly is the price for a 2 bedroom flat yearly in africa is that contentment? Paying fo 24 hours electricity in a place where you barely stay at home how does that make sense?. Isn’t that a waste?. Organic foods abroad, natural foods in Africa, compare that! Abroad you work till you die, Africa you work when you decide to as long as you barely pay pressing bills. Isn’t that a blessing? You can’t loose a job abroad for one month straight, the person will sleep in the bridges under intense weather conditions but in Africa many are jobless but still yet have “roofs” over their heads. They shuttle as they like. Too many to talk about. God is great, no standard of life is useless totally. Tis why I said contentment is the wealth of nature. People in Africa, has priceless privileges.

If you’re sick abroad, you must go to hospital be it you have money or not but in Africa the herbs are there…

Think deeply…

The truth is most of them voted APC in 2015huh.
The "truth" is that you:

1. Confirmed that ALL of them voted in 2015

2. saw the ballot papers of ALL of them and the parties they voted for.

If these two statements are not true, rate your IQ.

It's either Your brain don rotten or you are naturally slow.
Read the comment you are quoting.. Where did I say "All of them"?
I said "most of them".
You are the one who is mentally slow with an IQ like that of a toddler.

Get out!!

The two administrations you served under created the highest number of migrants; don't you wonder why they japa'd in the first instance?

Do you think they did so cos they loved the idea of quitting their jobs, selling off their properties, cutting ties with family and friends to move to other countries?

Hidden truth that reasonable number of people are not aware of
true! I once traveled to a country where I witnessed this first hand. 8 grown men, some with families back home, living in small sized room just to make ends meet. Some slept on the floor. All 8 of them worked odd jobs! Of course, whenever they were coming back home, they shopped at the flea markets and got cheaps clothes and gifts to make it look like they were successful overseas. It was an eye opener for me. Notwithstanding, there are those who are actually making it big abroad.

Rubbish

They should come back to the same country where murderous Fulani herdsmen are massacring people daily with the yarba-led government and security agencies doing nothing.

No one commented from your tribe commented on the thread where 11 villagers in Benue were massacred by those devilish herdsmen, your power-sharing allies.

That's the country you want normal people to remain rooted in! A country of hypocr!tes, haters, ethnoreligious bigots and tribalists!
