leaving is not solution what about those that cant leave so they r free to suffer forever? the only solution is to deal with those kind of people u hv mentioned above

it is an impossible task to flush them out and make Nigeria a developed country, to be frank with you, there is no hope for a collective better Nigeria. The youths agitating to take over are worst criminals, are they not the same people that make up Boko Haram Militants, bandits, kidnappers, political thugs and armed robbers and rotualists killing their fellow youths without mercy Is it not the same youths that spend their data and time defending a directionless, selfish, wicked, nepotistic Buhari government Nigeria and all West African or black nations can only get worst by the day, it is their destiny.


You can only work for your personal and family breakthrough, it is the saddest truth about black nations.


Which black nation on earth is doing well to give you hope that Nigeria will be better someday None! Even the ones with less than 5million population and massive crude oil resources are struggling to exist, take Gabon and others for example.

Black Africans are shameless people. It hurts me a lot that I am one of them because I know I was designed to be a pure Caucasian but mistakenly landed in Nigeria

planetx:
There is nothing posh, serene or organized about Baltimore except you are talking about a different Baltimore. Bmore as it is called is one big freaking slum.

No vex.

Compared to my Lagos, it's far far far better.

Na visiting I go for and na just 2 weeks I spend for there. I be confirmed Lagos hustler.

Most Baltimore neighbourhoods wey I see better pass our Ikoyi and Victoria Island, so you no go too blame me.

genq:
Relocate back and fix Nigeria for us. I'm begging you sir

You don't sound convincing enough, you are mocking me more like.

Give me a good advert on Nigeria, make me believe Nigeria is a place worth relocating to.

Shameful that the blackman is incapable of building any of its countries and shameless migrates worldwide. a british firm just started mining gold in central nigeria. laterthese stewpid nigerians will come and start saying "they invaded us", "they took our resources" blah blah blah.... ask nigerians to mine gold they hae no clue - they will call china to help them.

sweetmelanin:
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!

@ the bolded, I thought I was the only who noticed too.

mywells:
Any one that could loan me 5m to travel to canada as a trailer driver,would pay it back instalmental spread through three years.

It's impossible to give what you don't have.

Ready made product is best

Actually I have no qualms with people intending to travel, its the lousiness behind it and the effontery of cursing the country, a total lack of self introspection, and I'm sure the Canadian embassy will notice.

They should move in silence like the Chinese and Indians , assist each other, but will they?

Useless in Nigeria, useless everywhere

I don't know who will put me through

lekki1444:
2 MIllion is morethan enough. thats like 5 thousand dollars.you can buy enough ticket for 6 people to canada sef

BigDawsNet:
Definitely bro....

We should pray for might success

There are lot of white American living permanently in lagos

The location is not the problem

Right connects is the main deal

And God's favor

Well, may be true. But at what ratio?
And remember most of those white you mentioned are not poor in the first place, they just want to explore, exploit and expand their frontiers.
unfortunately the same cannot be said of those migrating from here to yonder places.

humilitypays sorry I have to revised this post. Nigeria and Africa isn't cursed.... I don't know how to explain it to you but colonizatis 400yrs old....indeed the Africans were to suffer the same fate as metis peoples, algonquins, cherokees, and hundreds of other tribes in United States and Canada... colonization was complete and successful in USA and Canada...however it was interrupted in Africa. It is unfinished business in Africa....its still ongoing. France has at least 200 military installations in Gabon that you mentioned
there are many developed African countries Rwanda, Nigeria, Botswana and South Africa to name a few.... there's nothing wrong with Africa....

wonder233:
I can only go abroad for a vacation or visit. That's the best way to enjoy abroad. But relocating there? No way!
Contrary to what you see on social media, life is very tough abroad. Forget about the pictures taken in the snow and fine backgrounds, life abroad is very unfriendly. But there is a code of silence, those already there know you idolize them, so, they won't want to burst the bubble. And when you go too, you do same... So the cycle continues.
If you want to understand, look at Lagos, people migrate from all over the country , the majority suffering, but can't let their people back home know, for fear of losing face. You see people living in subhuman conditions, yet there is a place they come from where they at least have a roof over their head, but they are deluding themselves in the big cities. It's same abroad.

hmmm wisdom analogy.

Leaving remains the solution until Nigerians agree to kill all the politicians from 1960 till date. ALL OF THEM


When some youths protested against police brutality, some sections of the country said it was against the vegetable in Aso rock.


Leaving remains the solution.

BigBashiru:
thank you very much for stating the glaring truth about black nations.... one which most nigerians try to cover up with "they invaded us", "they plundered our resources"(as if nigerians know how to mine minerals).

notice the steady decline in nigeria between gaining independence and now - nigeria has been in steady decline save for china infrastructure development like trains which im sure nigerians wont be able to maintain.

its indeed the destiny of black nations - they will never be able to do well on their own unless lots of foreigners come and start living here - even other developing nations like india and pakistan are all better than nigeria.

so africa will continue to be the Dark continent it has always been.

its a very individualistic land full of cursed people - all you can do is fight for the betterment of yourself and your family and forget collective development.

That is the reality about black nations.


My only anger with Buhari is his glaring nepotism, tribalism, selfishness, wickedness and I don't care nature that have led to unwarranted deaths of vulnerable and dejected Nigerians, it wasn't as if I expected him to do any magic to change Nigeria because no President can change Nigeria except white people come down to Nigeria in large number and start living like it's their ancestral home and fix things.

the ones that have crude oil would not have known they have it unless the oyinbo man came and told them so. also they would not have known how to mine it as well.

west african core black nations can never develop, its in their destiny.

wittyt98:
regardless of the congestion, person wey get OT must survive. I can't travel from a whole naija to look uche face in the abroad . Even if Dem reach 10 billion, man wey get determination must survive

Thanks man, we'll survive it. Gat no where to go, Nigeria is my country, just understand the street and survive.

someone should start a petition to invite them to come oh.... Buhari will continue to be president and let the oyinbos help him fix nigeria.... after buharis tenure then tbritish can take over once again! i prefer living under colonial rule....

One day by GOD grace myself too will be grateful to GOD Almighty for escaping such a greedy country

we have the same reasoning. If I had the power, I would have invited white Europeans and Americans to come back to Nigeria and take some LGAs in all Nigerian states as their permanent ancestral home forever and also give them some government slots like all heads of security, judiciary, CBN, ministry of science and technology, sports, etc

Maize621:
I came to Poland and in this short space, I have realised how messed the Nigerian system is. It doesn't build her youth for success, it destroys them. Here, we're hopeful for tomorrow as there's light at the end of the tunnel. We can see it, and it is for this we put in hard work

HOW DID YOU MANAGE TO GET POLAND VISA AND WORK PERMIT

Kriss216:
If I eventually find myself in Canada, I’ll first go and barb Kodo, so that Canada breeze go comot all the nonsense Nigeria suffering from my head.

Lmao

Pls house which via is the easiest and best visa to enter Canada

lkillbrokehoes:
It's very possible, just save money and leave that country. the first time I traveled out of Nigeria for school, I thought I left a very big zoo. I was free and overwhelmed, the joy in me was different that day and you won't want to come back because there's everything you need, and if you aren't the lazy type making it there is 100% possible.

how much does a person need to relocate to a country like Canada or USA?

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

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...

Bro , you said it all
I keep asking myself why are Nigerians born and brought up abroad are still trying to come bk to Nigeria to hustle.

Example : Mike ,Ike, Tolanibaj off bbn, Rotimi of power etc.

I believe there is something they are seeing in Nigeria than we here are not seeing.

One day I was asking myself, traveling abroad is it not to work for somebody how long will I continue in that life style of yes sir yes sir.

Okay if I say I want to open a business there, who born me well. How can that be possible .

I reasoned Nigeria , I saw a lot of opportunities around. Note this: Nigerians are ready to patronize you to the core if you can give them quality.

Since then, travelling out never never entice me again.

The one that discourage me most was, when a friend that rolacated to US called for me to help him with money. I was like kilode. He say men , bills everywhere . And he resigned as manager from here to there Jst because you need constant light and good road.

Bros, Jst think on how to provide solution and watch out for glory

To every man his own, do whatever works for you!

The way folks are running to Canada..I'm starting to get tempted myself.. I wonder how many people from UK have relocated there too..

..at the rate at which things are going, Nigerians will soon turn Ontario into Peckham

Trust dem don Dey cast the place already

With yahoo levels especially Toronto

Yuceeluv:
But that's the truth.

I can't wait to jappa too.

If you move out, the invaders move in and occupy your ancestral land in the south.

If you return to Nigeria on holidays, the invaders in power place you on 6 months quarantine in Nigeria - no exit from Nigeria for 6 months. You get frustrated.

With flimsy excuses for Covid-19, a 6 months no exit from Nigeria was recently imposed on hundred or more Nigerians who returned to Nigeria for Christmas. What a way to frustrate those returnees.
