In view of the 2017 Day commemoration, NOIPolls presents a throwback from its migration poll conducted in 2015, which gauged the perceptions of Nigerians on migration and vital socio-economic attributes relating to migration, as well as the perceptions of Nigerians on the xenophobic attacks in South Africa. The poll showed that a considerable proportion of Nigerians are migrants abroad mostly in the United States of America (67 percent) and the United Kingdom (43 percent) when compared to other countries in the world. Findings from the poll also revealed that it is perceived that Nigerian migrants are better off in foreign countries in terms of economic opportunities (66 percent), financial stability (66 percent) and living conditions (63 percent); however, they are worse off in terms of social interaction (39%). This perception maybe attributed to some level of discrimination against migrants, especially in the areas of housing, education, health, work or social security as revealed by the UN.
