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 cheesy

You're very correct.

So many Nigerians from England, USA are here in Canada in the past 5yrs. Their numbers is scary

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...
may u remain here as u wish

Yeah I saw this from a known Nigerian lady on Twitter that has a clothing brand in Canada saying black people have to trend cautiously.
The kkk groups are secretly doing their thing over there but it is not rampant like that of the USA.
The Canadian government does not want the world to see them as very racist country, but the government is committed in controlling it so that it will not happen.

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.

How old are you?

Bros these inconsiderate people in power are working hard to officially devalue our currency N1000 to a dollar within the next 1-3years, that means that the very good job salary real value will drop from 500k to 150k by then.

Is that what you want?
Mehn... I considered the insecurity thing and poor economic infrastructure as well as decaying educational system. I already put up a profile with WES for evaluation and I'm taking the ielts. My fear has been.... I really know no one there and I'm scared that if I don't get a job quickly, it will be very frustrating. I don't want to go and be homeless. I'm not just black as a race, my complexion even attracts the attention of black people in the north. I am very very very very very black.

You should not bother with that dude. He stays in the US, is an American yet discourages Nigerians from relocating.

Effing hypocrite.

He’s not discouraging, just saying the truth. Abroad is not home even if u have all the passports. You are still a 2nd class citizen

To a Nigerian life is all about money but trust me 2 secs before you die you will know there is more to life.

My uncle among first ppl who went to Canada in the 80s , relocating to badagry

The money they give you . Will be used for taxes, rent and bills.

No input no output . No be every work Dey pay all your bills. Some will pay half of ur house rent some will pay all.

As abroad fine reach many homeless.

Last time I traveled I went to fast food joint before I even throw the food into garbage. One homeless guy grab and eat my left over.

Some ppl Dey abroad but na naija dem destiny Dey but no patience.

Them for make an for naija with more focus, application and patience

By the time u reach 70 u will see some in naija are more well of with zero debt.


The west is designed to keep u in debt . You cannot get some jobs without credit score.


But ppl no go hear. It’s good but in the long run u might regret

Nigeria is no different from other war zones or conflict zones.

Funny enough country like Nigeria is very good for ex military personnel that have served in military of other countries and now offering services in private capacity here in Nigeria.

Worked with many of them that have work in multinationals establishment and with private high networth individuals.

Why are u taking a portion of the whole story? Dangote that got helped by his uncle for a start. Secondly, hes been consistently favoured by the government for several years which makes him the sole supplier of goods consumed by over 200 million people. Why wont he be rich?
Thats the kind of grace you should ask from God...
If you are not there they cant do anything.
Both outside and inside Nigeria. ..the richest black man is Dangote. ...who runs a business in Nigeria
Thats grace.

Your environment is what you make of it...
I used to think Nigeria is bad until you see Chinese and Lebanese and indians and alot coming to Nigeria to work ...getting five times what their economy can provide for them...

Leaving Naija is a big achievement...Having stayed for almost nine months in both Ghana and Thailand, I came to realise that Naija is a big jungle.
To be honest,Nigerians no suppose go hell,because we don collect the suffering here.

If everyone runs away from Nigeria who will stay and fix Nigeria?

Here is me thinking of relocating to Nigeria soon.

The country divide soon! Very soon! And the remnants of the country shall birth new nations. These new nations from the regions that have sense shall be developed by the very people that lives and lived in the same abroad people are running to.

This shall happen because these developers are those who have sense among the ones dwelling in abroad because they know it is not normal for Africans to be there.
