Nigerians are loud for nothing. They act like they're the first group of people to invent migration which has always been a thing. Just make sure you have something or a goal to keep you busy while you're at your new destination, so you don't become a burden to the government and it's citizens. Either way, brace yourself for racism and culture shock.

People JAPA for a variety of reasons…we Africans are forever thinking of survival and money. There are other things to life too.

If not survival and money, why would you choose to live in a strangers land forever ? How many Nigerian Billionaires relocated abroad permanently ? Dont deceive yourself. if you are wealthy you can go for education and come back, you can go for healthcare and come back, you can go as a tourist and come back.....Home will always be home.

Ask the likes of Davido,Dangote,Rabiu why they didn't JAPA permanently....Anybody JAPA-ing permanently is probably a struggling middle class.

The world is aging and it's resources dwindling. That's why countries are attempting to take over lands and resources of another countries.

Stability will always be on the move and illusionary to a lot of people

It all depends on lifestyle. Moreover the people you mentioned have relevancy in Nigeria and not “abroad”. There are Nigerian billionaires that live permanently abroad too. Do your research. There are also people that are very rich and comfortable in Nigeria and yet had reasons to Japa. Take security and peace of mind for instance, some people that have been traumatized by insecurity won’t think twice about Japa.

You stand a greater chance of being killed by random shootings by a gunman as a bystander than in Nigeria.

There are more shootings in America, daily than in Nigeria.

There is insecurity everywhere.....trust me.

Come on man, USA is not the only western country in the world. Gun violence in places like Canada, Switzerland etc are unbelievably low compared with Nigeria. I agree with you that no place on earth is crime or violence free but the one in Nigeria is demonically high. People are slaughtered like animals in some parts of the country. I know that it doesn’t bother most people anymore because they have gotten used to the killings. Trust me that can’t happened even in the USA that you claimed records multiple violent deaths due to gunshots everyday.

😂😂😂😂😂...This PR you guys are collecting gig for will not stop anyone who wants to, from leaving the country that your principal has succeeded in destroying. Common sense should tell you that America is not the only destination for people absconding from all the trash happening there in Nigeria. There are 1001 places in the world where there is no gun violence and all the ills that occur in a modern society, places where the dreams and aspirations of people can be realized and achieved. This PR is DOA.

It always depends why you want to japa. I want to japa because I want my children to grow in a sane society and also give them dual citizenship.

Meanwhile those who did that generation ago complain that their children are lost to their community and their culture!😅
You just can't win!

LOL.....I also think Asiwaju has to go, only reforms i like in Nigeria is banking reforms.
His main problem is he cannot control the state governments looting the FAAC Allocations.
Do you still i care about Tinubu.....or you need pills for paranoia and delusions ?

Lol...werey dey disguise 🤡. Yes you do. Don't be a coward, own it with your full chest. Continue supporting nonsense, no one gives a shite, but trying to convince people not to look for better options outside the country is a new level of going low. It's nothing but pure wickedness.

Better options ? There are more homeless people in America than in Nigeria. You are one of those non-exposed people in Nigeria. Thinking all your problems will be solved by a visa and a plane ticket.
Werey cannot wait to be a slave in another mans land.......lol🤡.

Even the America wey make una dey always talk am, how many of una Nigerians people u done see/hear that was hit by a stray bullet or their kids get killed in school?
Yes one or two few incident occurred, but it is at it barest minimum.

All fingers are not equal. Those who can foot the expenses must japa, the commoners like me will stay and take care of the house.

They should be born into and live through the same situation as we did and see what they have to say about that.

Most foreigners simply japa to Nigeria because their currency is stronger than ours. They're not japaing to live in the ghetto or the matchbox self-contained like the regular Nigerian.
Neither are they japaing to live 2hrs away from work and have to literally "travel" to & fro work.

They're japaing into living in a society where their expertise and level of experience, and even sometimes complexion can make them treated like God.
