Keep deceiving yourself, those you think they care cannot come and fix your country for you, you can only rant and make them see you in a more ridiculous ways.

Will you call a Pig a cat just because it appears neat? If you tell me your home is disgraceful home, it mean you are not a product of good home, and nothing good would never come or expected from you.

Will you respect, trust or love your friend who insulted his/her parents, called them evil, and eventually sold his/her parents house.

Will you trust that kind of friend with your parents or house?

You wont know how illogical you sounds to rational minds by downgrading anything you are part of, until those you are appeasing start calling you out like this.

I always shame when I see Nigerians celebrating this.

Many of them are not innocent in the decay and disgrace that is Nigeria. Only difference is they are now in a country that will not tolerate what is tolerated in Nigeria.

Even if I have to take up such "shameful" course of action, it would be in quiet and private, nothing to celebrate in an economic refugee return to the same places ones ancestors did everything to escape captivity and slavery.

Dennisochampa:
Nigerians talk too much and it's a problem...

here in the UK, Indians and Pakistan nationals, even Bangladesh to an extent are more than Nigerians living here but na only Nigerians go open camera just to celebrate visa and citizenship or to begin analyse how to Japa from Nigeria....

not saying it's a crime but the attention we draw to ourselves is too much... Just too much

Which touts are running the country?

The politicians today were not professionals yesterday with work in both public and private sector?

Stop fooling yourself that some innocent professionals have to japa because touts and agberos are running the country. The touts and agbero are still in the gutters and it is the very professionals you want to glorify and acquit that are running this country aground with their greed and lack of foresight, despite all the foreign exposure they have.

Let him wait let me get mine next month I will celebrate it to high heaven. He will not understand because he did not witness the disgraceful country called Nigeria.

Everyone took everyone as slaves at one point or the other. Ethiopia was never colonized yet same same.

When agberos, touts and school drop outs are ruining the country, professionals leave for greener pastures. Tell me how many of your leader's children are schooling in Nigeria. Tell me how many of them do not have a homes abroad. Tell me how many of our leaders have no foreign bank account that they stash our commonwealth in.
When you finish answering these questions, then tell me how many foreign Presidents, Prime Ministers, Heads of Government, etc buy houses in Nigeria or even come to Nigeria for medical.

You now see that those of you defenders of evil governments are the problem, not the professionals japaing.

Don't mind PBAt and his defenders including his information minister who sees the obvious and keep denying.

Sen. Remi is no longer active or talks again what happened?

It is partly a mindset problem.

Give some of them well paid jobs in Nigeria, they will rather choose to flip burgers and drive trucks abroad, just so they can pose in a winter jacket and head warmer.

You are comparing a tout and agbero to a commissioned officer who passed all necessary training and rose to be a Major General while also holding all notable leadership roles in the military and political military?

The certificate forger you refer to is a well known alumnus of the tertiary institutions he attended in the USA, with both picture and academic evidence of his scholarship in that institution. An Accounting technocrat who rose to become Treasurer at Mobil Oil of Nigeria that is today known as ExxonMobil. He has been a Senator, 2 term Governor of the most complex and economically vibrant state in Nigeria, a party leader who contributed political expertise that kept the democratic opposition alive for many years - something we now realise many still miss him when compared to the current rudderless opposition without patience or strategy.

Those who Japa are not in anyway academically or professionally superior to those who have become Governors and Senators and Ministers and Presidents in this same failed country. We have had Phd holders in political government, Professors, Medical Doctors, Senior Lawyers, Engineers etc and you want to paint a picture that they are touts and agberos, in order to make the ones who did not succeed in Nigeria feel good about their economic refugee status in foreign lands.

Only professionals have ruled this country and you will not excuse them from blame that should be borne by all whether they are within or now without.

Those who shamelessly celebrate their new citizenship are part of the failure that is Nigeria even in their own general followership and leadership in their little stations of authority while in Nigeria.

Many of you are equally guilty of these behaviour too, it is usually depends on who is on seat of power in Aso Rock.
When Jonathan was the president, we knew the regions that defended him with their resources.
When Buhari was there, we knew the regions that defended him with everything they had.
Why are you commenting like this is new now that Tinubu is there? May be it is time to do some introspection guys

maasoap:
And they work their asses off without breaks until they become old and weak and become useless to the same system that enslaved them for so long (all in the name of securing better future for their kids). The kids that won't even remember them tomorrow, going by the kind of system they're operating in the West.
Well of course, we have seen some of them returning back to Nigeria to die within few years. All the time they were supposed to enjoy life, they spent it working three jobs with few hours of sleep

The far reaching karmic consequences of the slave trade. Blacks sold blacks as slaves and this is the end result. It will continue until the scales are balanced.

But I assure you that not a few have resigned from such high paying jobs in Nigeria to go be at the bottom of the society in foreign countries.

this has nothing to do with slave trade

It does. You might not believe it, but it does.

Now I understand you well, same problem affecting majority of you guys since 2023 general election. Being oppose to a rulling party shouldn't affect your patriotism toward your country. How will you be able to change the narrative if all you do is to talk down on your country. Your country should come first before any politician or political party. That is the problem we are all battling with till this moment. We are too selfish, we only care about ourselves and where we belong. Elections has been won and lose since inception of Democracy in Nigeria with no much disunity among us, why is post 2023 election losers became enemy of their own country?

I was actually talking about my country, I don't even like the same APC government, because their policies affected me too, then you suddenly turn it being supporting rulling party and politicians. Did you see me mentioning any politician or politics in my write up? Why is it that anyone not agree with your believe is automatically an APC follower or member?

Arguing with some of you here is a waste of time I swear.

Is Nigeria really that unlivable? Scott Bolshevik mocks Nigerians.

https://x.com/scottbolshevik/status/1988889848338436504?t=S0Z8EabRwtUQEjvfOOra7Q&s=19[/quote]The so-called Economist is naive and highly uninformed. I'm personally aware of many citizens of other countries around the world such as Indians, Chinese, Ethiopians, Ghananians, etc, who became Canadian or U.S. citizens and celebrated their NEW citizenships online and offline. Even referencing centuries back, the 1800s and 1900s immigrants of Irish, Scot, Southern Italian, Danish, Swedish, Welsh, Japanese descents in the United States (who came in from various European [and Asian] countries by passenger ships through Ellis Island in NY and the West Coast of the United States) were elated to have arrived in the supposed land of fortunes and freedom.

So what the heck is this dude called Scott Bolshevik trying to talk about here to draw online attention to himself?

A lot of the rambling youngsters on this thread criticizing folks of Nigerian descent for being elated to have a second citizenship obviously know NOTHING! That's a FACT. These ones simply exhibit one of the WORSE kinds of low self-esteem ever then criticize others in government WITHOUT offering real world solutions for the advancement of their country.
