The average blackman loves to oppress his fellow blackman. Thats the only way they can feel special. Most of those content creators that use cho cho cho to block the way are possesed or witches and wizards they pretend they want something good but in reality they want to close the way. Once majority is involved witches and wizards will likely be involved. Even the Devil goes to the church dont be deceived.

They're waiting for the time of visa renewal of every content creator who earns from their contents, but have failed to declare nor pay the appropriate tax on their earnings. grin

They're waiting! wink

Japa to the UK didn’t go wrong because of content creators.

It went wrong the moment the natives started feeling sidelined, housing scarcity, rising crime rates, and a belief that the government was treating illegal immigrants better than its own citizens.

That sentiment created the perfect environment for frustration to grow, and eventually pushed more people toward supporting far-right groups that are strongly anti-immigration.

Well stated, mass immigration and small boats crossings of undocumented migrants are fuelling the rise of populism in the UK

Bros, I wan join mouth for this ur wisdom.
Not only Indians, Pakistani dem dangerous pass Indians.
Marry 1st wife, bring come UK, give am belle as she born, divorce am, marry 2nd one bring come UK, divorce am, marry 3rd one.
All the wives go get stay and subsequent citizenship through the child route, now now 5 years don reach dem apply for ILR.
Quietly no noise but Nigeria, dem cast everything online for few cents per like.

aswani:
I disagree with your second paragraph, a lot of the natives have felt that way since the 90's, they just never had it thrown in their faces so blatantly like Nigerians did.

Every single stuff we did to take advantage of their system, Indians have been doing it for ages, loud mouthed Nigerians were the ones that put it out there in a way that the natives could see.

Our own is too much.

The downfall of Nigerians is always fellow Nigerians. This thread is correct that Nigerians openly promoted whatever. It was likely for financial gain. On a normal day, we only care about our family members and no one else. Northerners are the only ones with a mindset of helping their own.

I do not believe it was a bad thing publicizing the schemes. The UK with their stingy ways would make things difficult without reason. All that country and Canada need are slaves to build their system. America is the only location I believe truly requires non-citizens for diversity.

I trust Indians, Bangladeshi, Pakistanis and other middle easterners. East Africans were also the same before greedy Nigerians corrupted their ways. Asians too. They open means for their families, relatives, neighbours and what-have-you to flood whichever host country they reside. They know their country benefits in the end from foreign exchange. We should think the same way.

Sounds like you have a small mind. The world is much bigger than you think and migration has gone on and would continue to go on for the whole of mans existence.

UK makes decisions based on numbers coming in. If Nigerians didn't go, perhaps Indians would have taken their space and the result would still be thesame.

I would only speak against those who markerted illegality. Those who spoke about their legal journey have every right to.

Don't mind them! They'll not keep shut and avoid spoiling other people's chances of getting Visas. Those who genuinely desire to emigrate to these countries now have to face tighter scrutiny and some vicious policies. Nigerians are too loud-mouthed for my liking

Nigerians in UK talk too much online especially concerning japa. At some point, you would wonder if there are no Nigerians in the US, Canada, Australia and other countries.

There are more Nigerians in the US than in the UK but they don't make as much noise as the UK counterparts do. Because the pay in the UK is low, UK Nigerians take to 'oversabi' content creation to make more money.

You have not met the US ones. Just search it out on TikTok

Different groups with different topics.

Some would even be discussing how to beat the system “LIVE”. You will hear everything and loophole you can exploit. From social benefits to immigration

It’s not a UK thing, Nigerians basically talk too much!

We not the baddest but the LOUDEST.

It's really worrying to see how sharing so much success online has backfired. When people publicly posted all the secrets about getting visas and buying certificates of sponsorship, it sadly made the UK government notice and tighten their rules. Now, many people who gave up everything to move are stuck and can't stay. It's a tough lesson that sometimes, it's better to be careful about what you share on the internet, because the consequences can affect so many others.

. that is why we Nigerians and government should make our own country better and good and developed and all this desperation to japa to UK and other foreign countries for greener pastures and the insults, deportation, embarrassment Nigerians receive over there will reduce and stop.....simple

They can rob a bank and still come online to tell
You how they did. You cannot estimate how far they can talk.

I just don’t know why!

For years, Indians flooded Canada with fake admission letters, nobody heard until it bursted. Nigerians would have been hawking it online.

I am just happy for the dudes that beat the system before biometrics. These sets of Nigerians would have cut short the life span.

The ladies does this. They usually don't understand the financial implications n cost their husband spent for relocation.
Now when they start seeing pounds they screamed online to draw attention using ringlight

The UK has introduced a new policy allowing international students to transition to the Innovator Founder visa from within the country.

A new rule, effective 25 November 2025, will remove the long-standing requirement for students to return home before applying.

Applicants can now begin setting up approved innovative businesses while their applications are processed.

The reform is expected to boost entrepreneurship among African students, especially Nigerians who make up one of the largest foreign student groups in the UK.

Nigerians are too loud. So much negativity and crime online. Some Nigerians can't help themselves in boasting about how they beat a system. Foreigners do much more to come to Nigeria and fleece our resources too...SHOCKED!

Recall immigration/ passport abuse by Chinese nationals?

All our NIS said was the Chinese look alike

Indians selling CUPION LACE MATERIAL in Lagos/Aba/Kano..Upon exposition back then it's price fell from N30,000/yard to N5000/yard

The British through OTS bringing lower classed personnel as expats to work in the Oil Industry.

Indians and rice imports to Nigeria

Lebanese and chain store ownership with false docs to enter Nigeria.

Is it the backend foreigners in Nigeria as Currency merchants?

Either way people abuse or take advantage of loopholes in an immigration system or opportunities in the destination country. It's just that 9ja people are so LOUD over pennies and cents.

GLOBAL MIGRATION:+
CHINESE/INDIANS/NIGERIANS

CYBERCRIMES:-
RUSSIANS/INDIANS/AMERICANS

LOVE SCAMS:-
THAIILAND /PHILIPINES/ INDIANS

REFUGEES:-
ETHIOPIANS /PALESTINIANS/ SYRIANS

It's mostly because they are bored out of their mind...and will die of boredom if they don't do something extracurricular that is cheap with greater rewards.

I pity them because they hardly have a life!!😰😭....but the consequences is what we are seeing with the JAPA matter now.

In both 2022 and 2023, and even any given year, the percentage of Indian immigrants that came to the UK surpasses that of Nigeria. You will very hardly see an Indian turning on ring lights to make immigration related contents. But my country people?! Forget.

I've lost counts of contents I've seen by fresh Nigerian immigrants on YouTube, TikTok, X with titles like:

The things I've learned in the UK after 2 weeks - (Breaking News: I Now Know Everything After 14 Days)
One week in the UK - The Good, the Bad and the Ugly - (Just Landed Yesterday, Already Doing Full Documentary)
Want to buy COS? Watch! - (Public Service Announcement From Your New UK Minister of COS Affairs)
This is important if you want to secure COS - (Gather Here If You Want COS Before Bedtime)
How to secure COS from Nigeria - (Exclusive Secrets Only I, Who Arrived 30 Minutes Ago, Can Teach You)
The DOs and Dont's in the UK - (UK Regulations According to Me, Oracle of Manchester Zone 2)
What you MUST know about dating in the UK - (As a UK Relationship Expert With 3 Days Experience)

Then the name changes and tiles - Oluomo of Bury, Iyaloja of Peckham, Amuludun of Hull, Igwe of Sunderland - (conferred on them by His Majesty King Charles III)

What exactly is Nigerian's problem? What is it?
