Experience is the teacher!

Those are few of the brave ones who have the guts and nerve to return. Many still cannot accept that reality and will rather die there.

I do read that statement saying “Comeback back home of abroad isn’t good” it mostly comes from people who have not seen the other side.

Just pray you never get to a point where returning will be close to impossible.

You will know why 20 years abroad is not a flex. You think thru don’t want to come home? It’s because there is nothing to show for those years. They believe their status is secret being abroad than relocating back where everyone will know.

Like I said, experience will teach you.
Thank youuu

Life is too short to be suffering bad roads, epileptic power supply, no emergency response, no portable water, poor health facilities, polluted air, terrible govt etc.

When Buhari was reelected inspite of my campaign against him 2015 and 2019, I knew i needed to bounce. Nigerians do not want a better life and a tree like me cannot make a forest

Very true. The word equal opportunity exist abroad not in Nigeria, however if you have money i n Nigeria there is a lot to do as its still open and it has virgin opportunities, abroad is saturated for Biz

SOME Nigerians are returning. Those leaving and willing to leave outnumber those returning many times over. Migrating to another country is a thing of choice so i don't get why some people engage in fear mongering just to scare intending migrants.
But there are many super rich boys in Nigeria. My classmate ( a pharmacist) sold his business and house only to show up again. Aaahhh

He’s a scammer. He’s hoping people who are desperate will contact him to travel. They will probably use them for organ trade or scam them of money. That guy is a criminal. 8m a month. Very funny. Even executives working abroad can’t deny that home.

Seun need to ban these people trying to scam Nigerians with japa. I am sure many people have been led to their deaths and their organs stolen my these people claiming huge success story from Japa.

Based on the loneliness, maybe extroverts should think twice before japa then, cos I know introverted folks are coping well.
Exactly⚠️

I avoided crowd in Nigeria and you think i will return because of loneliness in abroad?

Nahhhh

Do they have to interview everyone?
It's called sampling, you don't need to interview everyone to get a feel for what's going on.

Some people here in the US, especially those who have been here for a long time, including myself, are either moving back to Nigeria or planning to. Most are just looking for ways to make a living in Nigeria before returning home.
If they sampled the more than a million people who refuse to return to Nigeria it would make more sense, instead of just sampling a few who do want to return to Nigeria.

But I'll help you. Ask those in this thread when they are returning to Nigeria, and come tell us what they say.

coming back home this year. I get money wella. but I am just tired of living abroad. Naija wait for me
If you are truly abroad, your life wouldn't have ended as a tribalist that you are. Your orientation would have changed. So stop lying, you are in your village here in Nigeria.

i lived in Spain for 13 months. One thing i concur with their experiences is Loneliness. Abroad is boring
Re: Japa-Da: Nigerians Abroad Return Home Amid Dashed Expectations by ledaman: 3:33pm On Apr 12, 2025
If I should japa, nothing can make me come back. The only that would make me to come back is visit then roll back.
Nigeria is a very difficult country to survive now.

Okay.
Anyway, I beg to differ. Not really because those girls are not cheap.
People tend to mind their businesses more in diaspora for fear of ruining reputations which can inadvertently cost you a whole lot. It's easier to cleave to ladies abroad, you may not be too financially committed since most girls have jobs but they cherish things like trust, special dates in their lives, trips and surprises.
Hustling man may not have time for all that🤣🤣

You are a thief and anybody that will contact you for help is a fool. Thunder will kill you for all these lies and you will die like an animal on the street very soon.

Are you talking from experience?

Clown...

You aren't talking from. Experience and you are telling others that experience will show them.

Every single person who returned came back with money they made from oversea, and the main reason for their return is to INVEST in nigeria, Nigeria is a virgin land for investment, no fierce competition.
Nobody returns to come look for job or carreer. Okay.
All of them who returned have plan B, to japa again if they don't succeed in nigeria.
Buhari, Tinibu, all una leaders no belive in nigeria, hence they frequent there.
Don't worry, when you experience abroad, you will look at those who return as idiots.
If not for anything, securities, both physical and economic, medicals and emergencies.

Misleading information. You have the numbers that left but you didn't tell the numbers returning....Not balanced information.

WHY?
