currently no but i will be eligible to apply for it in next few months but the thing is that i am really tired of whiteman land

Once you apply for it, It means you can't even leave Germany for more than 6 months according to Google info.

I believe there is a reason why you are tired of whiteman land but you haven't told us, that's the real problem.

Besides, going to Ghana is the best option you have. Nigeria is a no-go area.

tell me your experience and where it happened. I know some places in Nigeria are in hot soup especially in kaduna, zamfara and south west oyo and ondo. Can you say that akwaibom is not safe or enugu or owerri or jigawa or gombe or kebbi or even ph?
Today in America 8 people were shot dead in cold blood, so the whole america should run away because of that or is it last week a girl was killed by a police man in Uk, even in Uk they are killing people in care homes with lethal injection, so the whole uk should run away because of that?
So many crimes are happening unreported, even in some parts of the almighty Abuja, kidnapping has been going on for sometime now unreported
What gives you the assurances that those places you presumed safe would not be overrun by bandits and kidnappers in time to come. Besides pockets of crimes,one chance ,armed robbery happen on daily basis in all parts of Nigeria, am not saying crimes doesn't happen in developed countries world but they gat good justice system for all irrespective of status .But take for instance your phone or car is stolen here, despite the fact ur in pain of ur stolen items,you will still be asked by the police to detect ur stolen items which is unrefundable whether there is success or not
Living in Nigeria is a miracle ,are you sure you are still in Nigeria

But that's why he created a thread right?

Instead of coming back to Nigeria, he could just move to another country.

People make decisions based on stupid reasons, if you can make 130k USD in Germany, why do you still want to come back to a shit hole?

Even crypto currency has been banned in Nigeria, it means he won't even survive here with crypto. How will he cash out his 130k in Nigeria without the CBN getting notified.

Yes but my point is that you need to have a leverage to leave Nigeria at any given time incase things don't work out when you return. Whether you like oyinbo robotic lifestyle is not the issue.

@damndamn: This guy has a very good point. If you ever decide relocate back to Nigeria, do your best to keep your option of going back to Germany open. Nigeria can be very unpredictable. The government can wake up one day and destroy your way of doing business (e.g. GOkada).

Hello, I am making strong plans to relocate to either Canada or Germany, I just want to ask what exactly are the things that don't you like about Germany?

Bros run your race, what if he dislike everything about it; would that stop your plan? It is an individual thing, and your career path is most likely different.

Did you read my comment after he replied? I am not looking to get discouraged, I was trying to find out the problems he encountered so that I can think of ways to avoid them.

Hello Nairalanders,I am 30years old and currently live in Germany . Honestly I am tired of this Whiteman land and I want to relocate back to Africa by end of next year  but every one that is close to me has told me not to ever think about coming back to Nigeria. Currently I have an equivalent  of savings of 130,000usd which i made during this cryptocurrency bull run and i have a three bedroom flat in Nigeria.I feel that it doesn‘t make sense for me to have such an amount of money and still do a work of 3000euros per month. My other concern is about the high rate of start up failure in Nigeria  but i do not mind going to other African countries where the business environment is friendly . Please i need advice .
Just like you i am also pretty tired of America and currently looking into either Enugu,Ghana or Rwanda.There are reason why lots of people especially African Americans are relocating back to Africa maybe because there is more to life than this bs we are living here and i am totally done with it.

All the people discouraging the OP not to come back to Nigeria are those who NEVER step their foot out of this country all the good things they see happening abroad is on TV but unfortunately the abroad they don't know is bigger than they thought.
OP there are so many guys that relocated back to Nigeria and they are doing well, look for them on this NairaLand and seek for advise, there is one who currently relocated back to Enugu and he is doing well also on freelance business he never regretted it, leave those JAPA guys here discouring you not to come back. There is crime everywhere just mind your business and nothing will happen to you.

Please be realistic. There are countries where the crime rate is extremely low. If minding one's business would prevent one from being a victim of a crime, we wouldn't have so many issues in Nigeria.

Seriously, do you really think that "minding your business" is what prevents people from being victims of crimes (robbery, kidnapping, banditry, terrorist attack, house burglary, rape, assault etc)... seriously? Come on... the moment you look like a cash cow in Nigeria, you need to watch your back and become very security conscious. How many times was Tuface Idibia attacked by armed robbers again? The guy was just minding his business also.

All these things you mentioned above do happen abroad but their media cover it up only Nigerians knows how to open their nyash to become a laughing stock to those white people.
Let me ask you have you travelled abroad? The truth is that even if you JAPA abroad it doesn't change the fact that you are a Nigeria if you like have 2 passport you are still a second class citizen abroad those Oyibo will still see you as a Nigeria and treat you as one. Early we find way to build this country better for us. Discouraging someone who want comeback home and probably help develop this country is totaltotally bad. Nigeria is our country and only Nigerians will develop Nigeria simple

Nobody said there is no crime in developed countries, it is the crime rate that we look at. Things like murders per 100,000 people, street robberies by 100,000 people, house burglaries by 100,000 houses etc. these rates are very low in developed countries compared to Nigeria. The truth is bitter and people are just telling him the truth.

I'm wondering how you got your statistics. I'm a follower of news both local and international. Guy stop carrying fake news you are not only destroying Nigeria you are distroying your image as a Nigeria. This same bad news of Yahoo boys about Nigeria youths have made every Nigeria seen as a suspect in eyes of a white man.

If Nigeria is as bad as you think? Why 2face and other celebrities still live in this country? I mention 2face because you use him as example on your previous comment. People who visit abroad don't wish to be permanent resident, people who are shouting JAPA have not even visited to feel the test of abroad.
