I will agree that your points cover most of the reasons why some don't send money just to anyone. Another one is that, people in Nigeria feel entitled and think that it's your duty to assist whenever they come up with another "school fees ", "rent" and "medical" stories. They might have even called or reached out to you when you were even not in good financial position but they think just because you are in the US , then you.must be able to help. I have told this to many people in the past, - a lot of people in Nigeria have more in their savings accounts than most Nigerians abroad. A lot of Americans don't have 1000 dollars in their accounts, they live pay check to pay check. So how can they help you with school fees when they have Bill's to pay. 42 Likes 2 Shares |

eazzzy1:May GOD BLESS YOU. I have suffered. ...... I used to have a FRIEND whom I have always made effort to chat up with while in Nigeria. Every Effort I made was treated with Levity. But since he got to know that I relocated to ABROAD, MENNN he now calls like I owe him a lot. .....a COUSIN of MINE called and told me how he was arrested by POLICE for Theft. He told me he was calling from the POLICE STATION. I now beckoned on him to give the phone to any Officer, and again that I would call the policeman I know in Nigeria to intervene, could you believe that it's 3years now since I started waiting for him to handover the PHONE to the Police officers at the station..... My EX-GIRLFRIENDS want to Kill me. Including the ones that are successfully married. I had to open a payment voucher for them to support them. I know NIGERIA is very tough. After all I left just few years back. 44 Likes 6 Shares |

On top of that they tell you to start building investment,God punish them.... Yeye investment wey dem go use my money do owambe. Besides that money in the US is taxed I mean how do you think they pay for all this infrastructure? I'm just hustling no be me go be Maga for these Naija people. 30 Likes |

I think the best thing here is that, instead of giving out cash, the young ones among them, set them up in a little way. I mean paying for any skill for them through their parents. I believe in empowerment than dishing out cash. 16 Likes |

God bless that special uncle.. Dude was simply a giver, never complains. He always prepares list of people he'd give money to. People far and wide respected him sooo much. He's simply one of a kind. Best is simply help the relative cross over so they can hustle and help others, no be to dey how many thousands come dey complain anyhow. 11 Likes 1 Share |

eazzzy1: You are so on point but let me tell you about number 5. One day I realised that I had just a black shoe I wear to church and didn't have lots of clothes in my wardrobe. I took calculator and punched the figures to check how much I make for a year and afterwards I checked my account balance and what was there was embarrassing. I never knew I was working and paying family and friends until that moment. So I took a hard decision to take care of myself. I ignored them for about 3 months. If you follow the folks who request for money every now and then you will keep struggling. I give them 'bobo juice' now because I cannot come and kill myself. 36 Likes |
