Nonesense, I can see that unpatriotic Nigerians are here making negative comments about their country--unfortunate Nigerians is their new name because they can never see anything good about the country but they will still use the passport to travel out"SPIT ON THEIR HEADS".

Back to the topic, the American man should rather run far from Places like Chicago and Dethriot rather than poking his broken nose on Nigeria, white-trash.

He has a point but some people are still getting ahead in Nigeria. In fact I know people who only began to make it after they relocated back home from abroad.

It’s only true for those who are lazy upstairs life is difficult here but has many opportunities than most of those western world.

Despise sars, no light, corrupt police and dangerous politicians here in Naija their is still more opportunity here

I have found that 99% of the time, when people say this, what they are referring to is 'corrupt opportunity'.

The opportunity in Nigeria is from the fact that you can bribe your way to a lavish contract. You can negotiate kick backs with government officials and you can find new openings from your affiliation with corrupt politicians.

There is no opportunity for the common man. The earlier we call a spade a spade and realize this white man spoke the truth the better.

I don't believe this. There are many Nigerians who are more ahead in life than a lot of these Americans. So I don't believe this.

Moreover if we all run away, who will effect change in our nation. So we will stay around and keep on pressing on till all becomes well.
all of una go dey giv una sef hope. In the next hundred years nigeria will remain d same if not worse. Check how nigeria was in 1999 and compare now. Nigeria is actually worse off.no light,herdsmen rampaging everywhere,SARS shooting ppl upandan.. What of armed robbers nko? In the evenings u cant come out for fear of armed robbers. U dey waka for road and if person dey waka behind u.. U will turn ur head and look at d person very well to know if na robber. Anybody wey get chance should port out of dis country ASAP.

This is no opportunities.. What we call opportunities are actually slavery..

Nigerians battle with electricity, poor Internet connection, poor purchasing power, poor transportation, my bro, it is hard living and doing well in nigeria.. It is not about being lazy upstairs..

But this is nothing but the truth!

Just check out the kind of misfits elevated to positions of authority and governance in Nigeria and you'd begin to appreciate the mans argument! You hear of Nigerians held back and held down by quota-system and federal character but who then go abroad (where merit and hardwork is appreciated and rewarded) and immediately excell!

See the way someone like Chimamanda Adichie is fêted and appreciated abroad. In Nigeria she would have been given little or no attention never mind reward, and they'd tell her to wait in line due to quota-system as Anambra quota is full and they need to give a 'educationally disadvantaged' state like Zamfara or Borno their own turn. sad

Loads of wisdom there. Doors seem to start opening the moment you've checked out. Nigeria has virtually killed the destinies of her young ones

A guy I was practically picking his bills left Nigeria in 2014 to work in the hospitality sector in Kuwait. Fast forward to 2018, he is a certified HSE professional in the topmost construction firm in the gulf region, raking in thousands of Dinar every month. He has completed two choice edifices in Lagos and his hometown.

Meanwhile ,the homeboys never even see one half plot buy. Smh

Painfully true!
It is only in America I come to realize that you don’t need someone that knows somebody that knows somebody that know another somebody who would now be the one that knows maybe another somebody before you can get anything done.

Everything is by following the process on your own. No sort, no bribing whatsoever. In fact you don’t need any friends if you care before you live a happy life and make progress on your own. Thanks be to God I did what the OP advised.

Naija is good grin
if u never go to hospital or send yr kids to school or run into police or Sars or army, or breath the polluted air, or run into ritualistis or run into drunken drivers plying bad roads with poor vehicles and avoid the fact that everything is fake due to corruption.
That's a steep price to pay for the "opportunities" in Naija.

Easier said than done. You'd find the practical thing is to choose one - 9ja or abroad.

Backward progression is what I have concluded is in black Africa's DNA. That's my humble opinion. It's not even for just Nigeria. All other non black African countries seem to have their act together

Are people not making it here big time?
No be people they buy house for banana island for 400million?
No be people are running companies, making profit, employing people?

Bros me personally, I don't really fancy abroad. It's rather to go for vacation. I rather live here. My ambition is more in ensuring my Ltd company I started some years ago grows to a very credible and successful entity. I am more of an entrepreneur. Where people see problems I look for solutions.


It's not easy here, but we can't give up. Or run away.
