That number five point seems to get every right-thinking African abroad. You have enough to live lavishly but most times secondary responsibilities tend to take priority over treating oneself to luxury. 1 Like |

SweetCunt97:Well. I graduated uni without a laptop in the last decade. Over 90 percent of my classmates did not have laptops too. We made use of pen drives and cafe computers. We made use of what we had. The most annoying is when you have siblings living under the same roof demanding for seperate laptops. I suggested they share one sent earlier. Excuse was that, the person that got one first was always making use of it. 5 Likes |

omonnakoda: And when you were single and has nothing, it was those people with strong sense of "entitlement " who helped you grow and became the success which you wouldn't have possibly not smelled? You're the ungrateful disgusting being ever existed for thinking that way. After helping you to grow , you now see the person as claiming entitlement? Instead of being grateful.

The complaint on nigerians here feeling that you must send money to them doesnt only apply to nigerians in diaspora. It also applies to nigerians that they feel are doing well here. I'm also posting to fault some of the things I've seen here. First, there's no where in the world where you pay 60% of your pay as tax. The highest I've seen is between 48-52% in some places in Europe and it applies to some levels of income. They run a progressive tax system in most European countries. Secondly, one can send money to someone abroad from Nigeria and ive done it a few times. Not everyone abroad have things going rosy for them. Then, i want to ask nigerians in diaspora two questions. First, why do most nigerians that have been abroad for a while think everyone else living here in nigeria are never-do-wells and most of them tend to shun their nigerian friends? Secondly, what should be one's net income in nigeria for that person to abandon the idea of travelling abroad?I asked this last question because some of the friends I had while in the university and that are in the US now are asking me why I'm not making any efforts to come over and i usually tell them I'm wondering why I have to. 11 Likes 2 Shares |
