You will always buttress my points of you try to attack it.

You bought a house and paid off in 4.5 years which i believe is a condo. What is the cost of the house, how much interest did you pay over stated period, and how much sales tax did pay. Deduct everything and tell me how much profit you made. It’s a false illusion that you would win after paying interest, property and sales taxes With poorly built structures, I know you invested a lot into that.

Credit system is a shackle to make you believe you winning while serving the system. I stated earlier. Yea, because you won, it’s easy for you to share your testimony. If that stock at hit $0.1, the bank itself would have been smiling to the bank. Why I called ot trap and why they always luring you into debt.

I know you have an idea about the system and why you were moving your investment back home. You planned for the unforeseen cos you know what the system can do.

Have you notice EVERY American cannot point to his grandfathers house? You know why? Cos you cannot keep it in the family line forever which is a norm in a place like Nigeria. The system is built not to make you hold for long.

Respect your critical thinking.

By the time she finishes her money she will run back to US...

She won't.
This motivational speakers usually have support that they won't tell you.
She could have found a sponsor who encourages her to relocate.
She could already be running a highly profitable business in Nigeria.
We don't even know her family background.

They never reveal their unfair advantage because it will make their story less gracious.

Sister Judith is a Registered US Nurse
- Sister Judith has a US passport
- Sister Judith has been single, possibly on low rent in US while cashing out steady for years
- Sister Judith with her money and US passport cannot put herself out there in Nigeria for 2 years and not find a sane young man(REASONABLE one o, not yahoo boy or lowlifers)
-Reasonable boy too managing with his decent job with decent income of 250k-350k/month will not see Sister Judith's green flag and not rush her, considering the relationship will come with likelihood of US residency. If the boy get better IT skill- the idea of sister Judith a US citizen will look to him like-"this is God sending me an angel to reward me for all the wahala PDP and APC have put me through
- Dont forget Sister Judith is a registered US nurse, if she steps foot on US soil on a Sunday morning, there is a very high possibility that she will resume as a Nurse somewhere by Monday Morning.

Sister Judith is living her life on a working template. Go abroad, secure papers, go back home, get a reasonable boy, after he has successfully impreganated you, bring him to the US as husband. The worst that will happen to sister Judith is that the boy will leave her- but child support will be sure.

If your profile is not similar to sister Judith's, dont mind Sister Judith, customize your own path.

Most likely the way my secondary school classmate got married to a Nigerian living in the US and in less than a year they moved to the US.

Yes, everything is not about money for someone who doesn't worry
about where there next meal is coming from.

CoronaVirusPro:
Let me use a cheap example- Having a home in Nigeria will give you life time security. In the US, you can buy a million dollar house today cash down, and lose it within a year just because you you failed to pay property tax.

Have you heard where hospital collected someone’s house in Nigeria? In the US, when your debt is passed to collectors, a lien is coming for your house.

Have seen a Nigeria student heavily indebted to the system for studying Engineering or medicine? It’s a norm in the US. It a system than cannot give you peace of mind even when you try to fake it. Even while sleeping, you running.

With the series of demolition and seizure of properties in most parts of Nigeria, that does not hold again.

There is no husband in Nigeria, Tinubu's destroyed economy has rendered many young men financially useless, so dear Miss Okoli, I hope you are ready to be the breadwinner of your marriage? No sensible, ambitious man will even take you serious after hearing about your irrational decision borne out of laziness, foolishness and stupidity.


That husband that made you leave United States of America where Nursing professionals are highly rewarded to come back to labor foolishly in Nigeria without first setting up a thriving business or investment to fall back on should things go south, you may not find one because most of them are struggling to survive Tinubu's harsh economy.


Time will teach you a hard lesson.

That small dollar you saved that is making you feel like you can survive Tinubu's damaged economy will soon finish, na today? You go soon start Lekki/VI hookup for survival, time will tell.


I suspect she is a lazy girl looking for an easy way out of life, a waste to her family and community that she ought to have helped working in the US as a Nurse

She’s made & saved a tangible amount
They don’t owe people there monthly unlike the labour & human rights laws that are non functional here
Nurses are well compensated for their work there, can a regular nurse over here rent a 500k a year clean apartment lol
Lately it appears there’s a paid agenda for this rubbish advising people not to travel out
Her chances of finding a husband here is higher though, it’s due to culture. Black American dudes see through females games and play around too

Angelfrost:
Of course, it is a brutal world out there that eats up the gullible and financially naive.

Isn't that the whole purpose of relocating for most Nigerians?!! Gone are the days when people relocate with no plans to return... The idea is to go there, secure as much money as you can earn, get the citizenship, and relocate funds and eventually yourself back to your country. Why would any adult born and raised in Nigeria want to retire and die abroad?!! Except he has nothing waiting on him back here.

There are many o. Mostly women. A whole lot in Europe

So what options do African American women have? Na so e toff for Black women to marry in the US?

TimeManager:
I can't agree more, a lot of Nigerians abroad are seeking to return home. If Trump will not give you peace of mind, why not carry your load and return to Daddy Tinubu.
And if anyone knows her, please give her my contacts or tell her to dm me, she's going to be a good ambassador for brand Nigeria. Her accomodation and job will be covered upon return. Let's encourage one another, God bless Nigeria.



-Kiss the truth!

Is not even about trump for some.

It’s been undervalued and wasting away . Money is not everything for person wey don chop belle full

Sometimes you want to reach your potential

Baby mama culture is what our women will become if our society was fully liberal & you allow women totally choose who they wish to be with, without family interference
They love play boys, drug dealers,swag, gang bangers, dudes with all sorts of tattoos etc
Basically households with no fathers
A large percent of those liberal people sleep around, they don’t take religion, marriage, culture seriously until when they’re old/unattractive
Women with multiple baby daddies etc
Look up hybristophilia if you think I’m lying
I’m not saying this doesn’t exist in Nigeria, but our patriarchal society largely minimizes this

Clear definition of lonely at the top... Anyways ya all should let her be,,,she planned and premeditated well before she could move abroad so don't for once think she hasn't done the same in moving back 🔙 home

End

Give her a few months and let's grant her a follow-up interview

Xisnin:
She won't.
This motivational speakers usually have support that they won't tell you.
She could have found a sponsor who encourages her to relocate.
She could already be running a highly profitable business in Nigeria.
We don't even know her family background.

The last paragraph

I know the lady in question. She isn't just uprooting and transplanting herself back to Nigeria. She has been visiting and building up businesses in Nigeria already and has been in the U.S. for a while and first made her investment in Nigeria moves 8 years ago or thereabouts.

It's her choice and needs to be respected. And if anything goes south, she can always find her way back for a refresh. So, take note.

You sound like a backward person from what you said here. Have you ever even left Nigeria before? If you have, have you ever been to the US before? If you have, have you experienced what nurses in the US go through on a daily basis? If you have, have you compared it to the quality of life she mentioned?

Did she mention anything about looking for a husband? What makes you think it's not a joint decision between her and her husband to return to Nigeria? What she has already experienced in the US is probably what people like you are praying to experience. So, don't just talk rubbish on somebody's personal decisions. Was it you or your family that paid for her and her family's return flight to Nigeria? Can y'all even afford it? So, shut up sometimes bro.

She's neither lazy nor stupid.

Her points were solid, it's just that we who haven't made the leap think the US is heaven. I guess the proof of the pudding is in the eating? Maybe some don't like it out there. To each his own.

What am I trying to say? Don't judge her at all, let alone so harshly.

The above said, though.......

There might be a heartbreak in there somewhere, I hope all she's saying really is all she has to say.

Notwithstanding, she's come back here. She can always go back if she wants to. She has the credentials to do it more easily than most.

I hope she finds what she's looking for, even if it's a husband.

THANK YOU!!!

She's made money over there and probably has set herself up gooood!

Maybe going public on Social Media is even part of her hustle!

Such is life.Whereas I am here struggling on how to send my fiance who is a nurse to the UK or Canada after years of working in Nigerian hospitals without any tangible achievement despite heavy workload with miserable pay that makes one highly depressed.Judith,I believe you made a wrong decision.The Nigerian work environment is hell

Dey there dey spew rubbish dey stress yourself. Someone that has already saved millions before coming back. Whoever told she cannot get husband in Nigeria and go back to the US with him? Your comment is childish!

Just to add that I read your reply and see a lot of frustration on you living in Nigeria. If you don’t know not everyone is complaining in Nigeria as you are doing.

The young lady has seen heal and decided to trace home back. Instead of welcoming her you are yabbing her.

She is still reacher than you. She can still get a better job than you in Nigeria. So why beaffing her.

Please when you read post font just write comment because you can write. If you have taken 17 hour flight before to hustle you will give another person respect.

Thanks for your honesty. We need more of this honesty when we air opinions on Obasanjo Internet.

Since na eight years, she should possess a Green Card at minimum. As others have opined, this and many more are the aspect they don't divulge.

ANAELEemm:
hhhh

Lol. The person you quoted isn't a poor man either. Why do you people believe every Nairalander is poor, jobless and wretched?

CoronaVirusPro:
People who have never travelled and don’t know what plays will have more to say than those who have actually passed through the system.

I love what the lady said, go get a visa and experience that life of you choose to.

The western life will put you on your toes till you die. You will never have rest of mind. Don’t let TikTok videos and American movies deceive you. That system is a modernized and equipped slave market.

Those that say for the future of the kids don’t even know they are praying for their kids to get into debt from a young age and serve the system till they stop breathing. How many can pay the fees for a top university outrightly.

Even the education is wack. How many Nigerians live in top tier zip codes with highly rated schools. They only appreciate those quack schools in low rated zip codes based on what they have in Nigeria.

A country where medical bills can send you back to the streets homeless.

If you study the system, you will realize it’s a trap.

“The American dream is an illusion”

They soak you in debt to make you believe you are doing fine, and you will work for the system till you die.

Even in death, your corpse will still pay heavily to have a grave and still be owing the government sales tax when your family want to liquidate your property.

They don't know. I've studied in Nigeria and abroad. Baba, our educational system isn't bad entirely.

Eriokanmi:
True. I have always been an advocate of this move. Those of us who saw this earlier can only say,glory be to God today. Nothing lasts forever. That Egypt used to be world power has long become history. America too will become history someday.

If all it takes is going to the embassy and be renewing my visa each time, I don't care. Being US citizen doesn't define you or your future. It's just a title. You could be a citizen and still be as poor as church rat. How Chinese and Indians took over some sectors in Nigeria while the citizens are running into slavery abroad remains a mystery. Last year I visited an old friend in Bronx and his.togolese neighbour was so happy. He told my froend to please speed up my employment so i could
settle down fast. He was such a nice man but my friend burst his bubbles. He said this man youre seeing will leave for Nigeria in 2 days' time,.that he only stopped-by to say hello. Thats the most people's mentality. Once they see anyone who comes from africa, they believe he's come to stay. His neighbour later said he wished he was like me and I knew why he said so.

Before I came, Indians dominated the field or industry in which I operate today. But how, with the local content advantage, I have a reasonable share of the market.

Nigeria remains one of the best places to live. No be say dem tell me. I can confirm this myself cos I'm a witness.

...if all it takes is going to the embassy and be renewing my visa each time, I don't care...

Does that mean you have another passport in Nigeria?

If yes, then I believe it justifies your stance. A passport from one of the developed countries already places you ahead, even in Nigeria

Our women are gradually copying African American women
Basically what they see on tv & social media

PressMyButton:
Bla bla bla... yeah, she knows, she reads the news, she didn't ask you. Like she said, money is not her motivation. You better save your tears for your own daughter and advise her not to join her father as a wailer on Nairaland.

At least she should value her life. Life is wasted on daily basis in Nigeria. Security is zero
How does she think she would get the peace of mind in a country like Nigeria

Angelfrost:
What do you mean by 25%?!! Maybe you are adding inherited ones.
I doubt that number is up to 15% tbh.
If not for those abroad sending money to develop and build, it would have been far worse.
Na people wey never chop belleful under Tinubu wan build or buy house?!!

u no lie

Agbegbaorogboye:
If she's really a registered nurse, getting a good paying job won't be difficult for her in Nigeria
At least by Nigerian standards
There's a dearth of top level professionals in Nigeria's health sector

Top paying job you say? She can't get above 180k on a 6hrs shift in Nigerian hospitals . 180k is the highest she can get in the best of hospitals . What will 180kdo for her in that country? Except she gets a guy to leach on which isn't easy to do abraod

Beautiful woman

When u return... get ready to lose ur beauty
