Trump was very correct when he called us shithole theres nothing good about this country.

lefulefu:
they made money overseas and maybe came to establish a business in naija

only an ignorant fool will disagree with this man

babadee1:
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.

You spoke the truth.

pauljumbo:


Wrong thinking go alaba international and see how smart young boys are making millions

Tell me the opportunity on America if not washing plates and dead body

Open your mind money Dey here despite our problems

Making millions amidst third rate standard of living and unsafe conditions.

djon78:



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.

oh u mean our politicians and their cronies dat have plots in banana island na im u dey talk about? Or Are u talking about the big time 419 kingpins and drug barons that have huge properties? Bro how many medical doctors,lawyers,professors and other honest working entrepenurs gets plot or plots for banana island? When a person manage build house and get a car in naija then everybody will be making noise dat d person don hammer money.but for abroad having a car and a house na normal tin. Dat should tell u dat the poverty in nigeria is very deep. The only lucrative business in nigeria is armed robbery,yahoo yahoo, pastorprenur(pastors) ,politiks and illegal oil bunkry. Na ppl wey dey do dese proffesion u go see dey splash money about trying to impress on other nigerians dat they are lazy and dats why they are not making it like them. Since the 1980s we have been having epileptic power supply...though it wasnt as worse as this. As long as nigeria has no stable power then there will be no development and the prospect of industralisation will be a mirage.

The issue is not "making it". The issue is having a better quality of life, a safer life.

Dem go tell u dat these countries are even moving ahead of nigeria.we no dey talk of USA and UK now oo. My guy in kenya tell me dat eletricity there is stable and things are going well.Nigeria has become so bad that even some nigerians are running to ghana for asylum.

Correct guy

skallion7:
He's mad and look all those unpatriotic morons saying its the truth, the fact remains that not everybody makes it in his homeland

Not a question of making it. Quality of life is better and safer in US.

your understanding of the subject is limited, the point is that there is no middle class in Nigeria, everything is all about cutting corners rather than step by step hardwork, people are making millions but don't forget that your millions of naira is just middle class by American standard, the system has frustrated people to the extent no one wants to go school, when life frustrates a young man, he goes into yahoo yahoo, can't blame them, as a guy pointed up there, how many doctors and engineers have houses in banana island?

How politician steal money

skallion7:

Don't be fooled. A cop killing that will make worldwide headlines in US will go unnoticed in 9ja. Plus the person's family will get millions while in 9ja they'd have to pay the hospital bill!

You're very correct Sir. Nigeria has frustrated a lot of big brains.

This country kills productivity nothing good can come out from here, imagine say na uneducated old man wey no even dey creative na him be our front-runner for president, when my mums younger brother left Nigeria he said nothing can make him come back and live here. Life is brutish nasty and short, if you dey hustle even police go wan rob you. If things don't improve I go find way move ahead. Our education is poor, northerners like giving birth, religious leaders are milking people, we have nothing to be hopeful about.

Gbam!

Stupid.
Did Americans run out of America when the going was tough ? Did the Chinese leave China ? Did the South Africans leave South Africa ? Did the Vietnamese leave Vietnam ? Did the Singaporeans abandon Singapore in it's dark hour ?
The older generation is passing away and our chance for leadership is coming, yet all we can think about is running away and abdicating responsibility.
Oyibo is urging you to leave your ancestral lands and come to improve his own, you applaud him. Wonderful! I have never seen such a thing before

The only way out of our present problems is to stay back and fight for our land and future That we are not doing so is the reason why we remain backward. It pains me that our p0eople especially the youth are so lacking in cognitive skills that this conclusion eludes them.

But you gave Netherlands as your location!

Hypocrisy is a Nigerian, I swear

NgwaManNaija4LF:
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.

very true

whitebeard:
Get out of america if u wanna enjoy ur money..!!!

what and what can you enjoy with your money in Nigeria?

Apart from oppressing unfortunate souls, and having banes of easy virtue, what other sensible thing can you do with money in that $hithole


oh yes!

I know one


Helping the unfortunate with your money, putting a smile on their face and stuff like that


But asides that

I don't see anything

iyam telling u my brother. Nigerians are hardworking but na d system dey frustrate people. U can imagine a young man who wants to start an honest business.he sets up a barber shop and he will be using a chunk of his profit to dey buy fuel for im generator cos Nepa no dey work. And we expect d country to move. The few companies wey dey operate here run fully on generator and since dey buy a lot of diesel they hike up the price of their services. With the stress wey dey this country this is why u see when nigerians travel out most of them excell overseas because facilities are there for us to use and d stress in here has made them dogged.as for nigerian police harrasing ppl for money... Though its wrong but then many of them got to survive.nigerian police are underpaid and overworked and govt no gree provide with enough needed facilities.imagine u go to some police stations and u go see say some of their patrol cars na old jalopy. Many of dem source for private citizens to fuel their police cars. Wahala dey dis country abeg.

ameri9ja:


The issue is not getting ahead but enjoying a better, less precarious life

A better life depends on how much money you have. It's better to be rich in Nigeria than to be poor abroad. And life can be very precarious in foreign countries too. Nigerians are dying abroad every day in very tragic circumstances.

My business man friend call me yesterday say policemen on illegal patrol seize him goods we had to call someone to intervene, goods wey dem dey pay custom duties on, once police see you him go wan office you, if you dress well you be suspected fraudster, everywhere na crime hot-spot I no dey even like to step out. I hope things improve if not from next year I go dey look for plan B as na Buhari go rule us for another four years.

I don't know about "abroad". Libya is abroad.
Quality of life is much better and safer in US than 9ja for EVERYBODY regardless of income.

He is not the only one saying this.

True, but your race also wants the black race to be perpetually occupy the back seat in terms of development. You prefer to attract all the best brains from Africa and Asia permanently. If only the black race can think, but Alas, they don't.

even d rich are feeling d heat little by little.if nigeria is so good for d rich to live then dangote and big men for naija for no dey send their children abroad for dem to live there. All dhier children dey overseas cos dem dey fear make dem no kidnap them here. All d rich ppl here na so dem go hire police to dey guard dem 24/7. U think dangote go bold enter street normal dey jog in the morning? But u ursef can do such with ease right?. Dangote go dey fear make boys no plan for am kidnap am if e go dey jog for road. All of dem are well guided 24/7. How many armed policemen dey follow Mark Zukerberg?

..and Niggerians are not dying in Niggeria?
In factthis your statement ...depending on how much money... shows you have a one dimensional outlook on life and you need to travel more and be exposed. When one person dies abroad it is news. Hundreds die here and people shrug it off like its nothing. You talk of having money to have a better life can you name one thing your money can buy in this shithole that is qualitative and responsive to your needs?

In this life you are either a pessimist or an optimist. The way I see things may not be the way you see things.

As far as I know. I have better chance of attaining my dreams here than anywhere else.

One of the things I have found out about life is the people you hang around with determines how you see life. It determines the opportunities you see.

Sebi one guy opened one thread lamenting how US embassy was denying almost everyone visa. They dont want you to come to there country. So stay in your country and make it better.

There are bad people everywhere. Any change one desires starts from each one of us.
No be the same Nigerians give Nigerians bad names everywhere they reside around the world.

Let me be honest with you even in America it is not easy. I have very close relatives living in US. I know how many of them live. I have childhood friends who carry American passport.

Many people are making legit money in Nigeria!! Yes. Once we see a rich person we call them 419. Drug baron etc. See how Chinese Indians and other foreigners are making it in Nigerian markets while our people are running away to be third class citizens in a foreign land.

You may have your own opinion but for me, I dey here kampe. I dey here to hustle, work hard. Give people employment. To see how many of our people I will better there lives. By God's Grace. Not to run away to another man's land and be a laughing stock.

When you travel around the world and see how the black man is treated, like a trash. You will know it's better to be here and see the way one can help to effect positive changes not running away and becoming slaves or shit.hole the likes of Trump call our people.

man must stay and take our place in this nation.
