MT:
Stop arguing! You called it a “propaganda” yet you couldn’t provide a single resource to make disprove it.

Nigerians and I-must-be-right mentality.

For a mere fact that food is wasted doesn’t mean it goes round.

Think smart.

Lot of politicians squander money in Nigeria, does it mean everyone is a millionaire in Nigeria.

I’m living here. You are not. Stop arguing blindly.

I will use the same ChatGPT that you attached to prove you wrong.

FreeIgboho:
You are arguing blindly. Let's take a totally penniless person in US. He lives in a shelter where he's given 3 meals a day. In addition, there are several soup kitchens around where he can get free cooked meals, there are also several food pantries around for free food. In addition he gets substantial monthly free money for food.
Please tell us:
HOW ON EARTH WILL THIS PERSON BE HUNGRY??!!

Bros, you didn't make a mistake in anyway. You can make the N45M within few weeks when things stablize for you. This is just a phase and it will eventually pass away.
I was there 3 years ago and today, I am happy that I made the tough decision of leaving my multinational job to abroad.
Today, I am gainfully employed by a bigger multinational company with a perk benefit of a 2025 brown new official car.

Your story will soon change.

004gist:
U think its easy seeing those jobs? U think its moimoi? U know how many cv we de send per day? Before the government remove it from visa sponsorship job?

FreeIgboho:
You guys just say go and work factory, etc. There are jobs that will just destroy your spirit with its monotony or hardness, constantly watching the clock for.time the torture to end. You'd rather be broke

But this story contradicts itself. See below


The story contradicts. See below

MT:
Apologies for thinking you were smart and dignifying you with a response.

I said not everyone could AFFORD three square meals in the United States, you were ranting.

So if the guy you referenced in your scenario could AFFORD a meal, why would he needs social services help.

You ended up validating the fact that not everyone could AFFORD a meal in the US like I previously schooled you.

I would ignore you henceforth.

SocialJustice:
Hmm, some Nigerians will make excuses for anything.

Another fake "anti-japa" cock and bull story. I relocated to Ottawa, Ontario, Canada via Express Entry on 1st July 2025 (last month) and everything that I spent is wayyyyy less than N45 million. Food is not an issue because I go to food bank, transportation is about to be covered because I will soon be getting a reduced bus pass (more than 60% discount on monthly bus fare), I am still job hunting but my landlord has started giving me jobs to do around the house and paying.... if
you are thinking of immigrating, IGNORE
made-up tales like these....

D00msDay:
The average weekly pay for an Average Wage in the United States is $1,522 a week. So still not bad if u have a decent job.

Stories , Lies and Propaganda
If You did not so your research well, You have no one to blame

I have friends in Canada
One went with PR, he was a medic and is currently doing care and transitioning to study Nursing as Its not presently easy to get into Canadian medical.practice with a Naija or Eastern Europe medical degree and directly from Nigeria

Doctors, Radiographers, Sonographers, Biomedical engineers are in demand in Nigeria now

In Canada ,Nursing assistants, truck drivers, shop assistants, care givers, construction , forklift drivers are in demand so far You have your canadian residential papers

In Uk now, Entry Level Doctors are looking for Jobs

Would a tailor sew english suits to sell in a New Yam Festival Carnival

No Country gives foreigners jobs when there are enough indigenes to do the jobs
Its areas where indigenes are scarce and the jobs are essential that foreigners are considered

If You didnt Research Demand and supply and
How it applies to You and any country You want to go to; and Your chances of fitting or adjusting based on your situation and skills in this era where there is online information available free online ;with mass access to good internet capable chinese phones;
You have yourself to blame

My opinion here isn't about traveling. But seeing a parent who sacrificed to this extent touched me. I really appreciate his dad. Not all parent can even take half of such risk

Elzazzi:
Finland ke? What about the language barrier?

Adaumunocha:
It's well. What of bartender

FreeIgboho:
Only when you get there and experience certain working conditions you'd start dreaming of your laid-back back in Naija

Metordman:
Waste of talent. D same tailor u abadoned in Nigeria was d same talent Seyi vodi used in becoming a billionaire

SocialJustice:
Obviously you were also lazy in Nigeria.

chris51:
The car must be on higher purchase which will take him some years to pay. People tell too much lies about how they live in developed countries. They want you to believe that all is rosy for them

muhammaduyusufu:
If that's the case, Nigerians based in Canada would have bought all the lands and businesses in Nigeria.

One thing about abroad is that the system is designed in a way that as you are making the money, the system is taking it back from you. If you are able to save $200 every month after taxes, expenses and bills, you will thank God.

Using Toronto as example. If you make minimum wage of $2800 per month, your rent alone is average $2,200 for one bedroom.
You will still pay phone bill ($90), electricity bill ($100), water bill ($80), heating bill ($100), insurance for car ($150), food ($250) e.t.c

How much do you think will remain?

gidgiddy:
If you spend that amount of money to travel abroad, better stick it out there because there will be nothing to come back to Nigeria for except more pain and suffering

Apus:
Money that will generate more than 100million for me even without leaving Nigeria.

Like someone above said "you die there oo" cause at this point there's no point coming back till you've bought your father's house back or repaid him.

FreeIgboho:
But you've only been there a month. People who've been there several years will have better perspective

Victorious1000:
Bro enlighten me on the french exam and score to ace the exam
