Why would you risk everything in your life just because you want to go to europe, who says life is going to be any easier there? You should know better than to ask that kind of question here, be honest to yourself. Cheating NEVER pays. |

why don't you just go home first at least if things fail you are still with your family and loved ones. Go back to Nigerian then arrange your next trip to Japan/Europe or anywhere you might even start a business back home I feel for you man |

yes i agree with with the last man that just replied , come to think of it nigeria is not all that bad , if u have the money to invest , if u consider the money used in risking this risking that and the time wasted , one will c tat it would have been better top do something tangible u will travel when the time comes , but remember life is too short to waste on traveling. pls take my advise because it is borne out of personal experience |

@ poster life as an immigrant is very difficult, not to talk of an illegal one. atleast u have experenced it first hand, my advice either stay in SA and consolidate or comebak home nigeria is not as bad as we all thought,no police harassments,no curious looks,no racist comments infact use yourhead, but no go illegaly u will regret it. all the best  |
| Re: Out Of South Africa. by goodguy100(m): 3:18pm On Jan 28, 2008 |
Thanks all for your replies, going back to Nigeria? is not the best for me cus i have nothing to show for it [staying in SOUTTH AFRICA for two years, is bleeped up ] hope you guys understand me better now. |

@ poster. Why did you have to go to S.A in the first place? Out of Peer Pressure I guess  It is easier to make 10k in Naija than to make 10 Rans in S.A. My mother has been there for a vacation before and she saw 2 Nigerians selling sweets in a market, somewhere in Jo'Borg. The only way you can hammer over there is if you are connected and very desperate because south africans themselves hate Nigerians because they feel they came to exploit! Guys are hammering BigTyme in Nigeria! No rules at all! In fact if u stay too long in SA na yawa for you my guy  I think you should come back, regardless of the shame! from here you can organize your plan be or betterstill, start some runs man! |

@poster if u cant make it in SA what makes you thk you can in europe. Dem no dey pick money for ground o there has to be a transfer of goods or service b4 u get 1pound or 1 euro.i have being to SA and europe and i can confidently tell you theres no much diffrence so just chill at least bad as e bad you get accomodation for SA. Dont come back to naija either cus psychologically u cant handle it. Stay in SA and make sure u dont make same mistakes you made for the past 2 yrs hussle and save even if na 10 rand a week save it. ciao. 1 Like 1 Share |

goodguy100: who do you want to show to? in fact I think by going home you'll make up for the lost years by working harder! or you might even start exporting foodstuff/goods to Nigerians living in in south Africa e go better e go better na so another two years go take go |

@Goodguy You may wish to consider this story. It is one I have personal knowledge of so rest assured it is true. A Nigerian guy like you had lived illegally in South Africa for several years. He obtained a fake Lesotho passport and decided to head for the UK. You may know that Lesotho nationals do not require visas to enter the UK. Unfortunately for him on arrival in the UK he was detected at the airport with the fake passport. He claimed asylum when he was caught but was prosecuted for travelling with a false instrument. He is currently serving 6 months in one of her Majesty's jails. Once he finishes his jail sentence his asylum claim will be heard, but in all probability it will be refused and after that he will be on the next plane back to Naija. Chew on this for a while and consider whether you still think the risk is worth it. |

do you have to show someone you've lived outside nigeria? that's a serious issue then. Please don't let anyone dictate your life for you. you are better off living in nigeria than as an illegal in a foreign country. goodguy100: |

now listen guys what we are dicussiiong here is very important and it will change the orientation of the wise who is deep ready to take risk all in the name of travelling, i just finished wasting almost 3hunded k all in the name of travelling , now i look back and see all the things i could have done with the money , and i regret it , people were still pushing me to contniue i siad no way ,. the funniest thing is that the people that promise u this travellingvisa never travel themselves , i nw start thinking if mkaing there was simple why didnt they do it . a friend of mine just finished wasting close to 700k all in the name of traveeeeeelling now he is an house painter i now look and see that he has has wasted valuable resources , apart from the money what abut the time usually wasted , wasting 5 to 10 years all in the name of visa ,via , visa . i think we the nigerian youth really need to sit down and thik i told someone some few minutes ago that he should start looking at the oppourtunities that abound here not the negative ones . i have a lot to talk abooout time will not permit me to say much now but for our fr iend in sa this is my advice to him we are not there with him if he sees that there is no hope in sight it is better to be a fool for 3years and become the wise one later than to be a fool for 10 years . if there is no hope is sa for u pls COME BACK TO NIJA 1 Like |

Bros, to be frank i really don't want to come back, cus before i travel to S.A i am a very big boy , my biz is going fine and i have two nice cars that i sold out, now comeing back, people will think that i am bleeped up. l am thinking of traveling to singapore from here. l was told that i will not need a visa to singapore and there is a lots of jobs over there. Guys what do you think about it. |
| Re: Out Of South Africa. by krisbobo(m): 10:05pm On Feb 02, 2008 |
@Poster Really, This seems tome to be a waste of valuable time. If the reason you cant come back to naija is because you had a nice biz and two cars and you were a 'big boy' (whatever that means!), then you really should do eve3rything to go to that singapore or whereever cos naija doesnt need the likes of you! You mentality, in this case,s all warped. You want to go to Singapore because there are jobs there? psssst! By all means go! go and work like boy boy and life like as subhuman. I am tired of peeps like you who believe that a mere change of location will bring about a change of fortunes! Ride a camel, swim through the ocean; do whatever and gpo to this your singapore or wherever, you will have something to show for all your foolishness someday!! |

Bros he that has an ear let him hear, people in this room have spoken with wisdom if SA no pay u close eye go back naija shame no dey this one o! You r responsible for your destiny u shouldn't live your life based on people's opinions. I know its not easy going back to Nigeria after 2 years in SA, but the truth is if you feel you are not making headway in SA go back home don't continue to waste your time in SA. Life is too short to be lived casually, asper your proposed trip to Korea or Japan, my guy forget it. Instead use that money to set up a small business in SA or Nigeria. Redeem the time friend the days are evil! |

| Re: Out Of South Africa. by femiaction(m): 12:56am On Feb 17, 2017 |
goodguy100:Hello bros, what is status in SA? if you are on asylum please go back home. You don't need to get Lesotho passport. All is lies you will just waste your time and money. You don't need anyone to advise you, because you are the only one who understand your situation now. I came to SA in 2015 on critical skill work permit and in 2016 I got PR. Bros na God o not by my power. What I have been looking for 7years God gave me with one year in SA. God really bless me in SA. I am on transit in SA. To others SA is not the best place for hustlers. Please don't come to SA on visitor's visa because there is not room to change your status here in SA. Thanks 1 Like |
