But for me, I can never trade my stay in Naija for any damn thing!

On a visit, few years back, I spent two weeks in the posh, serene, organized streets of Baltimore, MD, U.S.A and I was fuckin' itching to return to my hectic, stress-filled Lagos. I just couldn't fathom why. May be 'cos I was missing ẹwa agoyin, cat fish, Nkwobi and cold Guiness big stout.

Was Yoruba the language of instruction while in your Nigeria university? Lols


Then,tell your thieving African leaders to sit up and do their job and stop hounding youngsters who want to migrate and better their lives.


I think you shouldn't worry about my self esteem but focus on the pot holes on your roads that can kill you, the police that can shoot you for having iPhone, the electricity that you don't have,the strike ravaging your children's lives, the Corona virus you will contract when you go for NIN registration. Lols


Nigerian graduate that can't read and write properly because "I'm Yoruba ".

LOLS


oh I forgot attending university is a gateway of speaking English and mandatory rules of English speaking dummy like you

you're only reducing yourself to this garage park argument because you want to defend white


if you truly understand English and its logic, you won't digress from the subject matter which is living like a slave in foreign land


I can't live in abroad but I can tour around that's the post you foolishly quoted, I guess English failed you to comprehend my simple sentence then


you understand English so well yet you struggle to stand in the presence of white granting interview before entering their country, your English couldn't save you to command them that you're going there and you shouldn't be question because you're a grammarian


I'm more sensible than anyone in your lineage and I will prove that in million times, if the way I write my English doesn't sound well to you then that's your lineage problem


whether I'm writing jargons or not I've made my stance which is, say no to second slavery

Nigerians and their herd mentality and abroad-is-heaven mentality.

There is much more money to be made in a developing economy than a developed economy.

For security our case is different in a negative way.



Nigeria environment is not safe for business in many aspects, security is zero, government policies is nothing but strangulation, corruption, poor workers wages, etc.

Unstable economy.
Which is very true. But businesses are still thriving over here, and that's where expansion comes in... moving to other countries within Africa... depending on how large you want your business to go. In the case of anything bad happening to the business in Nigeria, you have other branches to pick you up. I may be wrong though cos I'm not there yet but we still hear of thriving businesses here in Nigeria.

Omg grin

Nigerian are the same

Can't u read carefully

This story is not mine
But a random fact story


And getting a loan in the first world country is as normal as get a table water

In nigeria we see it as a big deal

Achieving those things as an average american without loans is impossible...

You can choose not to apply... No one will hold you


I'm sincerely not against your explanations, but my concern is that you guys over there have nothing to complain about knowing fully well your home country won't provide you a single of those opportunity offered you there.
If you have a friend who could help out of a difficult situation through lending, wouldn't it be better than an unwilling friend who would stand by and watch you swim in an ocean of hopelessly?
Two system, one offers hope on credit while you enjoy everything and pay back later. The other stands aloof showing less or no concern to your plight, I hope you understand?

This is bull_shit

There's no substitute for slavery.


Define Slavery.
My Daddy was a custom officer, I cannot join the same Nigerian customs, because i am Ibo, and the only thing there is federal Character and i make up 5% of the country and hence, I do not fit.
Define Slavery, when you as a Nigerian cannot boast of going to Abuja to submit proposals to companies to get jobs and co because you are not Fulani.
Define slavery , when u do not have a job, and thoughts of getting one is not there because u do not have a god father.

Let me buy chains and let the white man whisk me away, than this shithole of a nation that does good to no one. Its quite obvious you dont know what slavery is about.

Come back 15 years later and share your Canada experience with us young man cheesy. But when you come back, hope you'd not hide when you see your friends and mates you left behind Progress grin.

Nigeria is a land of opportunities to only those who have the inner eyes to see one. Nothing can ever make me take such a decision of relocating. If you want to go, bye-bye but you'd spot the difference in later years if you choose to remain there . Why not apply same spirit on developing yourself here? Go there for studies and come back with opportunities. I'd like to cite a few examples below on some of us who came back, against all odds.

1- I've been around the globe, even acquired certificates, up to 4 different ones and some training skills in amazing facilities. I came back with an opportunity which is seriously proferring solutions to our problems in Nigeria. No manager in the leading oil and gas company in Nigeria can match my worth...no be bragging matter. I don hobnob with world leaders, including Barack Obama. I'd have regretted it, had I stayed back.

2-Anyone who goes to one of the old generation banks would see an inverter with battery banks on one side of their banking hall, powering their atms... its as a result of an innovation brought home by my uncle. He left union bank for Atlanta in the 90s, got employed at Walmart as stores officer. One day, as he was going home branched at a newspaper vendor( a mexican) booth to read papers as usual and there he spotted an Inverter company located in Arlington. I'm mentioning it as it is so people could check it out. Its called Trace Engineering, later changed their name to Xantrex. He applied to them to be their rep in Nigeria to solve the epileptic power supply in critical sectors but they refused his application for 3 reasons. One, that the product was new to Africa and 2ndly, that being black, it would be impossible to convince his people on adopting the technology. 3rdly, that they weren't ready to expand beyond the shores of America as at that time. He felt disappointed. 2 months later, they called and told him they had reconsidered his application and invited him for 2 weeks training after which he was asked to come to Nigeria with demos to show to his prospects.

Long story cut short, his friends of Nigerian decent blasted him, they said his village people had come calling. He summoned courage and left America with almost nothing. On getting home, he started from his 1-room apartment he left behind. He went to companies, the CBN and other places in government too. CBN told him they had constant power supply with 3 standby automatic switch generators so, they'd not need his ideas. He told them but its free, they now allowed him to install one at their IT dept. 6 months later they had issues with their generators as there were a major power outage from national grid so they over fired the generators. They all packed up within same time. They had to order parts from abroad but then they needed to keep their IT dept running to prevent loss of files. The moment the 3rd gen stopped , all the directors were panicking, rushed to the IT room only to find out that the staff were working as normal with lights on. The called my uncle over, thanked him for saving them a major disaster and gave him a contract to install the inverter on all the CBN branches nationwide. Shortly after that, the atm revolution came and CBN recommended this man to all banks starting from the old generation banks...this man won a global distributor of the year 4 times and was invited with family to the USA for an award each time. His colleagues back then can't even near him in anything. Rather he gives them money on each visit. If you want to go...go and school or you spend a little time and while you're there, study the environment, study our challenges back home and you'd not regret leaving for home ultimately.

A friend is talking with sanwoolu on ocean transport from ikorodu to lagos Island now and discussion is at advanced stage . He's worked with a similar company abroad for some years now and now he wants to tap into the opportunity and the company is ready to fund this project 100%. When you see his private jets or copter hovering ahead of you tomorrow you see him on forbes list, don't say money why...while working in the biting cold over there.

Kenny and D1 would have stayed put and remained stagnated. See the duos balling today. Their contribution to the entertainment industry is invaluable. These are the people we know. There are several other successful guys out there who took a similar decision.

My 50cents had been given...

I loooove stories like this, you know why?

It sells hope to the hopeless, dreams to the visionless and riches to the poverty-stricken.

A post like yours will ganner a lot of likes, you know why? because too many people are hopelessly stuck in Nigeria and sadly will never get the opportunity to leave (despite secretly wishing they could), so instead, they will desperately hold on to the Nigerian dream; ...a rags to riches story, where a suffering man makes it big and gets to shine on all the poverty-stricken fellows around him - he becomes a big man and oppresses others with his wealth, driving his big cars on severely damaged roads, fencing his elaborate mansion to protect himself from 'hoodlums and riff raffs', wining and dining with governors and senators who have looted the country dry (like your 'friend' with sanwo-olu), whilst calling the hopeless masses "lazy youths".

I also love how your "friends" all travelled abroad before they came back to Nigeria to "make it big" .. how convenient! smiley

We tend to hide our really identity
We choose to keep one side and show one side

Because some people back home are ready to shame you..


You have a good job right?

Take a holiday break and come for visit

See what's going around here for free weeks

If it works for u and u ready


Make a decision

When people visit overseas from Nigeria for a brief period, most of them stay with family, relatives, in-laws or friends that they know.
Their perspective of the place is usually based on what they experience - Where the person they are staying with lives, what work they do, what kind of friends they have (as they would usually go out with their host), etc. If the person is a professional with a good job & is well paid, lives in a nice area and has friends of similar status, their perspective of the place is good. Otherwise, it is not so good.

Your subtle attempt to discourage people from migrating to better opportunities cannot be hidden and I will never standby and watch any of you dampen the spirits of people who want to migrate with your watery rhetorics.


You're a slave right in your own country cos you can't stroll out at night without police behind you, you can't question your Governor for siphoning your money, you cannot protest against police brutality (soldiers will kill you), herdsmen can comfortably go to your village and rape the women in the farm (you can never do anything about it),you still see flyovers as development, you cannot ask your leaders to fix just one refinery after years of independence (try it and get shot) your employer can comfortably sack you for being Yoruba (Not that you don't do your job)



NOW WHO IS THE SLAVE?
