TEYA:
If every Nigerian requires #300,000 to meet their monthly needs, how is Bwala making a valid point? You think Nigerians in US are finding it easy? Na WA o! That man is plain stupid and there should not be any reason for anyone to support him.
My point is that he is right to cite that cost of living is significantly high in the UK but wide off the mark to state 60k monthly salary for Nigerians in Nigeria is comparatively better than what Britons earn.

60k is worthless in Nigeria today.

TopBanter:
Bwala has a valid point because Nigerians in Britain are burdened by hugely high cost of living.

He did not even include so many other expenses like Council tax etc. If you run a Car, big chunk of money to drive and insure.

After all that though, claiming Nigerians earning 60k Naira monthly are better off than Britons on £2800 is arrogant in my opinion and indicative of how Nigerian leaders are over-privileged and disconnected from the daily struggle and plight of the average Nigerian.

I believe, even conservatively, every Nigerian requires 300k monthly to meet their living expenses.
May God heal our lands.

Bwala, stop this rubbish. This is not true. I totally disagree.

You don't need to exaggerate like Obi, the ying king.
Tinubu promised Nigerians 24 hours of electricity.
Tinubu promised Nigerians how dollar will be equal to 1naira.
Tinubu promised Nigerians Renewed Hope and many more things which i couldn't mention here.

But today, we don't even get to see any of this aforementioned anywhere in Nigeria, and Tinubu is still the president.

Now between Obi and Tinubu who is the lying King in Nigeria ?? Because you just called Obi the lying King, even when the thread have nothing to do with Obi or have Obi name as the headline.
I ask you, in your dreams do you usually see Obi appears ?

It's funny how you people keep calling Obi a lying King, even when Obi have not promised Nigerians anything before if voted in to power, and Nigerians later voted him in and he failed to deliver on his promises. You have never voted him before, so how did you come in conclusion about him being a lying King.

How old are you, because i know that a matured man with family will never come so low to write the way you usually write on social media.

You know the interesting thing? After his 8 years of talking rubbish, he would relcate to that same UK with his family to go spend the little he has gathered like all his predecessors...then they too would start earning same £2600...

You'll never see them choose to remain in Nigeria after their disastrous government.
That’s the average Nigerian politician’s dream, after finishing his career as a politician. They leave the so-called Nigeria they built and run to the white’s man society and become an average citizen

You mean they can't save 100pounds in a month? Bwala reason and talk well before he joined APC. As for you recruit APC online attackers the 30k go soon finish

So nobody is beside this man that can give him big dirt slap. because he is benefiting from the government does that mean he should not use his sense only if he has sha because he is blinded by what he is benefiting from the government.

Infact, all other factors being equal, who is earning 600k per month in Nigeria cannot grow as fast as who is earning 2400 pounds in UK. 250pounds(500k naira) per month on investment/savings every month is very doable. Can someone earning 600k per month even save/invest 200k monthly
Yes if you earn 600k u can own 2 house
Management is key and essential Nigeria is not expensive to live if u a good manager of funds

He is wrong! The cost of living is so many times higher for the average man in Nigeria than in the UK. undecided

A man making minimum wage in Nigeria has no real hope for a future. However, the same man earning minimum wage in the U.K. can save/invest in a better future. Stop going around spreading your agbado, abi na akara, and kulikuli bullsheet all over the internet! undecided

Bwala is a fool and an idiot.People living in UK have access to good Healthcare system,their children are exposed to better educational system and infrastructure. Even if some of them cannot save much,they are healthier and enjoy better quality life.The Nigeria government has failed woefully in these areas,live expectancy in Nigeria is the lowest in the world.Meanwhile,Bwala and other politicians will come to abroad for medical check ups.Why are they not going to nigerian hospitals?

So if you earn 600k and can 2 houses, That means soeone that earn 2400 in UK and can save(not earn) that 600k can own 3 or 4 houses. My point is that every other thing being equal(same level of financial wisdom, same kind of investment, same kind of management skill) the person that earns 2400pounds is far far better than the person earning 600k naira

This is the same guy that was complaining about the government and the hardship people are facing in Nigeria; now he has changed his tune. He is now praising everything President Tinubu is doing.

I don't think he knows the current buying power of the Naira.... and I wouldn't be surprised. People like him just don't know the cost of ordinary stuff. I don't even believe he knows the cost of rent in the UK ... claiming he lives there doesn't mean he knows. I don't .... but don't believe rent is as low as £800 ... maybe yearssss ago. About people dying in the street because of can't afford to survive... that's going too far. Mainly drug addicts and mentally ill persons are the ones who die on the street. Is it a must to exaggerate? ... or to lie?

The major problem that I think will work against Atiku and Tinubu is not speaking to the people themsleves. It will affect them.

They are still using the old playbook in a time where the youth have access to the internet and social media and want to hear from you directly. Whether it is Onanuga, Bwala, Kenneth or Momodu, one thing you will observe is that they draw attention away from their principal and start talking about things that will make people hate their principal. I posted it once here before how Trump talks more to Americans than our President, the Trump that is fighting war o. I just finished watching Chude's interview and heard them mentioning Modi of India. Now I will quote the comment I made in March and you can see that it's true. You can never be too busy for your people, talk down at them or behave like you are a god.

No part of what clueless Bwala said is true, not anyhow, not somehow and definitely not however.
A domiciliary carer in the UK earns far more and has a better quality of life than a medical doctor with 10 years experience will ever dream of in Nigeria.
Go figure!!!

No! Making the unfounded claim does not make him foolish. Bullsheeters like your politicians(and we have them everywhere) use the tactic to mine sympathy from the gullible masses. The fools are the gullible masses who eat up their bullsheet. undecided
