just collected my resident permit card today and will be visiting nigeria august after 2yrs leaving my nation and a topic came my mind and will like to share with my fellow NL who have ppl overseas.

though i may not include some of the reasons but I am 100% sure of my own but you can include yours if you have.

jobless without a stable job:- yes, how can someone who is not eating 3 square meals remember ppl at home? this month he/she works and next month no job again and house rent ,water ,light etc are there to balance up.

Fraudster:- forget this kind of ppl and loose hope in them because they will never come home due to their crimes been committed within the country and he can't even near the airport if he is a wanted criminal. Abroad no be 9ja o ones they have your biometrics ,even if you bleach from black to green dey will get u.

Prodigal lifestyle ppl:- before you make up your mind living in abroad ,u must open your number 6 (brain) because life is too sweet abroad and this group of ppl spend there savings clubbing, partying,smoking, drinking and prostituting just frgt this kind of ppl dey can never remember home even if you tell them there parents are abt to die.

Illegal migrants:- 78% of Nigerians living abroad are living illegal ,majority came with 3weeks, 2month, 1month visas but will not have the chance to renew there visas until they finally meet up with the country requirements and mind you if you don't make the steps early enough, just forget visiting police station if you dont want to be deported. so this are the kind of ppl that spend more than 10years without visiting home.

The marriage scammers:- these group of ppl will never visit home because they have forcefully marry a citizen of the country dey reside just to get residence permit. oyinbo wife no be like nja o if you mention say u wan go your country ehh be ready to spend some weeks in jail

that's all I can write for now due to my experience and what I am seeing with my two eyes.

may God crown our hustle (Amen)

hmmmm well said brother just as if I am the one you are referring to . my uncle refused to come home after 14years in Germany. nobody knows the reason till date.

Hmm, srry oh op but dis poist seem to b pointing only at pple dat don't want togo home for negative reasons.
Some pple may just not want to come home cos the environment at home isn't condusive for them with respect to our not less develped economy. Some may also decide to not come home until they have sucessfully improved thei r condition as to b able to offer a benefitiing change to nigeria.
Although I must say, those posts are true enough for certain pple.

OK O

Some of em dey pack sh!!t abroad, with small salary, come pay tax with almost half of it, so if them decide 2 return, na transport go finish there money.
#baba.now.dat.ur.there make our visa gr8er dan dat of the USA, as u plan 2 make d naira equal 2 d dollar.

Okay. Let them remain there. Obviously some of the reasons you mentioned, those peeps won't do us any good here either.

Travel for the right reasons!

The major thing is, if you live in a society that work. Where the basic things of livelihood are well taking care of.

Why should I come back to hub of frustration.

I'm surprised no one have said some of them thought the grass is greener over here, but getting here, they realizes it isn't the way they have envisaged. So they have to work their bûtt off to make loads of wads before going back to Nigeria.

Hmmm.....

THEY SHOULD REMAIN THERE .
The boyfriends/husbands/magas et al we have here are way better. .
Even the ones wey finally come back, NA WETIN DEM DEY BRING?? CHOCOLATES AND CHEAP UK CLOTHES FROM PRIMAX .ADVANCED OKIRIKA! !!

If I want make cold catch me, I run my Ac down to 16 degree.Wear socks, cover my neck and hair, THATS ALL

If you want REAL MONEY, COME BACK TO NAIJA. MONEY DEY HERE.NA WHERE E DEY BE DE KOKO! LOOK FOR IT!!
How person go dey abroad dey suffer for nothing while if you wrap shiite for paper, you go still sale am for naija.

Make una stay there dey suffer na...Even if i marry today and my hubby is home based, I first grumble well well before I 'manage' comot here o. I LOVE NAIJA! ! OYIBO LIFE NO FIT ME RAARAA!



He will have to allow me travel with my mortal and pounding stick.I will also travel with one full bag of ogili and raw palm kernel


Bur seriously, guys wey dey clean old oyibo women KPEKUS dat way for permanent permit, how una dey manage? Chai!! Some will do it for years, if them enter naija na to dey speak supre supre like HUMAN BEING!

When I'm done with my studies I'll apply for a PR or legally get married here and then go back home, I won't go back home without having a PR or being a citizen here but once I do, I'll go back home.
