ajl: to tell you the truth we have an illegal immigrant uncle in my family And from the monies he has sent back to take care if his wife and three kids, Build a small house for them there in Onitsha (that even gives them some rent btw from the BQ at the back) and the car he sent for them plus pocket money over the last six years, being an illegal immigrant is the best thing that has happened to him just that he has not been back since then And you know why. sometimes living as an illegal abroad is better than the lives most lead in that failed $hithole country called NiggerArea Some deceiving themselves that they are living "well" in that zoo because they are making a paltry N180k (which btw most Nigerians don't make o) una eye go soon clear when the idiot in Abuja aso rock bastardise that coubytt finish may be that 180k will not even be enough to get you $hit in 4 years time. Anyone who is getting a raw deal in Nigeria can always try elsewhere It's not a bad idea But please behave yourselves when you get there and remember where you come from that's all..... 2 Likes 1 Share |

ajl: maybe its Nigerians in the 40s /50s that have such yearning I have not met many millenial Nigerians who would rather live in Nigeria than abroad especially the ones already abroad... It's beyond the failed economics of Nigeria and all that. the predominant mentality in NIGGERAREA is shitty and warped and worrisome this above is the MAIN reason my I myself do not thing I will ever live in Nigeria permanently again or raise kids there the economics aside how can you live in a society that glorifies and craves superstition and diabolism rationalizes rape and violence against women exhibit so much wickedness to those they consider beneath then (e.g. employer beating up employees/wilfully withholding their pay) the one that ignorance is rife And the long list goes on. Those going to Canada for example via express entry got the fund to live fairly okay in naija (I mean about 4m+ is involved directly and indirectly) But they have seen beyond the economics a country whose fate is determined by hordes of almajiri and agbero voters is in trouble 8 Likes 1 Share |

byrron: if you do not understand in full the factors that predisposed them to live the life they do... It's better you do not comment It's just like what many black south Africans fave too if Nigerians lived through jim crow and all that mess like black Americans did our society will be a broken one too. tho I am not exonerating them 100 % But all those things done against them have its effect (which you as a Nigerian did not face, you are an immigrant) But still they should pick themselves up 1 Like |

Ugosample: There is no justification for being lazy and it has nothing to do with what one has gone through in life. When you are in a society that offers you multiple choices to choose from in other to at least be able to work and put food on the table for you and your family but you rather prefer not to work and leave on welfare and making babies here and there when you are not handicapped and then rationalize your laziness by blaming something else? There is no justification for being lazy. 1 Like |

The US will be whatever you make of it. e.g my panel beater back home in ogba ikeja many years ago somehow came to the us. I met him at a function. Apparently he now owns a thriving motor body workshop here in Atlanta. Back home he had nothing. Here he probably makes more than many professionals from his business. One thing he did was to learn all the modern techniques in auto body repairs. Nigerians in the US are known all over the country for their hard work and resilience. Lawyers, doctors, IT professionals nurses, pharmacists, mechanics, car dealers, night club owners, petrol station owners, grocery store owners, limousine company owners , pastors, cab drivers, uber, and of course people who still do menial jobs. Many of them own their own house, send their kids to the best colleges etc. every american in have come across will always tell me..... I know a Nigerian who ..etc . 100 times out of 100 its always the same answer. I have a nigerian friend or co worker or husband or friends husband etc. Finally, when nigerians have a party in the US, both white and black people open their mouth in amazement at the clothes, food and drink. Why do I say this. Because I know for a fact that Nigerians have made an ever lasting mark in the US that people from no o other country can match (maybe India & china in terms of economic status but not socially) 10 Likes |

It really depends on the country . In the US , you will see Nigerians doing an array of jobs. From cleaning to physicians to business owners . Your success will be determined by an array of factors. Regardless of where you are , things are tough so just be prepared to roll with punches. |

Bawss1: I don hear you I made my assumption based on what I have seen over the years especially with relatives of mine.... They are more useful to their family back in Nigeria as illegal im migrants in America than they ever were in that failed shithole third world zoo called NiggerArea. they send money via proxies at regular intervals to their families bought cheap land and someone helped build small homes for them etc many Nigerians are redundant and useless to themselves in Nigeria a walk round the streets will show you.

Kokaine: that's your opinion. I didn't come to this life to live and die as a menial worker. If menial work was as glorified as you people put it the whites wouldn't leave those jobs for Indians, Pakistanis and your lot. manual work is a stepping stone but for christ sake dont glorify it because you are in a white man's country where you leave as a 4th class citizen. I prefer to live as a lion in the Jungle than be a dog in the city. 6 Likes |

Ugosample: Aren't you the poster who complains about the Nigerian mentality and how it is responsible for not allowing us to progress and develop? Yet here you are putting the same mentality on display for the whole interwebs to see. So your relatives, who as you mentioned are living illegally in the States, are now useful because they are gaming the American system and sending the proceeds of their illegal status back home for others to eat. They are taking unfair advantage of a system built and maintained by the taxes of hardworking citizens but its all good because somebody's stomach back home is full as a result. The same belle-first mentality that we all berate our leaders for is now OK here? Or do you think the term illegal immigrant is just a fancy word and that there are no negative consequences issuing from people who are thus described? There's no need to continue to spin this, illegal immigration is not good. 2 Likes |

afroxyz:Learn to read and understand the context of a writeup before you jump into peoples comments and start spewing diatribes. See what we were talking about first and see the actual message I was passing. My comment bordered around how insecure Nigerians are in our country whatever class we belong. I wasn't glorifying or condemning people, or rating job preferences. Once again sir, if you must respond, please read the context and understand clearly so your writeup doesn't sell you off as a foool. I'm not saying you are, i m just advising you stop sounding like one due to impatience. Thank you. 1 Like |
