Below are the New York homeless shelters we talking about. It comes with three meals a day and all sorts of services and benefits. Compare to that shack you’ll build.

Let's call a spade a spade. This is a silly comparison. Those homeless people in the U.S are still far better than the homeless people in Nigeria. They have homeless shelters for them, however so many of them refuse to seek refuge at the homeless shelters due to a high rate of theft and physical abuse by the residents. Also, many of them are homeless due to drug abuse and mental health issues, even when offered a place to stay, they still end up on the streets. The homeless people over there also have access to social workers who can set them up with food vouchers, health insurance, job training etc but Nigeria doesn't have that. Notwithstanding, as a Nigerian, Nigeria remains the best place to make it big in this life. Despite the numerous challenges we face, there's no place like home and it is left for us to develop it.

Okonandmary:
This is true.

dasparrow:


You are lying! I don't know what is wrong with some of you Nigerians. America is my second home. Lived in U.S longer than I ever lived in Nigeria or in Western Europe where I was born. There are more homeless people than there are homeless shelters. I should know because I used to volunteer in shelters in the United States. And no, the shelters don't take all homeless people in or help the homeless with jobs, health insurance, etc.

There are so many Americans who are not homeless and have no health insurance coverage how much more the homeless.

Also, not all homeless people are drug addicts or people with mental health issues. Some are regular folks who lost their jobs, could no longer make rent and found themselves on the street. Most Americans are only 1 paycheck away from ending up on the street.

REAL Americans tell the truth about their country America unlike African migrants like you who stay hyping other people's country more than your own. America is on a downward spiral. Americans know this and talk about it all the time but African migrants like you will come online to lie about a country that you don't even originally come from because many of you are so thirsty for validation from Nigerians in Nigeria and want Nigerians in Nigeria to worship your azz all because you reside in America.

So many Americans are running away from America and migrating to countries in South and Central America, Asia, Australia and to Africa. Yes, you heard me, AFRICA!

Keep hyping America and don't go and fix your homeland. As a Black African, you will always be looked down upon no matter where you live on earth until you develop your homeland. America is not your ancestral land. Go and develop your ancestral land in Nigeria Africa.

But most Nigerians will despite the non availability of this ingredients. But we not talking middue class. We talking below poverty or poverty lines and succeding.

Kobojunkie:
But it is yet another lie to delude folks into doing nothing about the 24 million homeless people right there in Nigeria.

Pako is far better than living in a cardboard box.... you forgot that NY is a very big city.....and expensive too....those homeless couldnt afford the rent and utilities. there are lots of empty homes also that people couldnt pay the rent....theres poverty everywhere. Lots of American are living on debts to battle their poverty....that was evident during pandemic....you see someone driving 2020 toyota (on loan) queuing for food packs.....can never happen in Nigeria.....

Abfinest007:
I perfer living homeless abroad than Nigeria .

AndikanEssien:


You're just ignorant

RodgersAkpafu:

Can never happen in Nigeria ?
Lmao
You never see anything ooo
The hunger that shook Nigeria during the pandemic eh
It was unmatched
Eventually when the palliative warehouses were exposed
What happened ?
That's right

I get it
Tbe USA is not all sunshine and rainbows
Person fit fall on bad times see pepper there

But you see Nigeria, or even most of Sub Saharan Africa
The level of suffering is on another level.
I'll always tell those as the lower rung of the ladder to try the USA and see if they have the chance to

The goodies of Nigeria is beyond reach for most Nigerians
Just that those who want to jaa should have realistic expectations

IPIGSRSHALLOW:


Must have a very very low self esteem.

DaddyRochie1642:
You'll still see one Nairalander that'll soon run in here with Full Speed and start arguing

louqas:


You can never see a man that has 2020 toyota in Nigeria queue up for food stamp....never
The reason is simple....the american got the car on loan.... the nigerian most likely paid for it..such a person is most times buoyant enough not to need a food stamp.

Saao:
Lol that guy said nonsense. 30% of lagosians are homeless.

ThatFairGuy1:
That's to tell, the deed is everywhere.

STOP BADMOUTHING NIGERIA you unpatriotic lot

Abfinest007:

Keep decieving yourself
Anyone who is homeless in Canada (I live in Canada) has either chosen to be homeless, working on some great idea, struggling for the moment, drug addicts, with mental illness, has criminal charges.
If an immigrant can have a home, then, no reason why someone brought up in the system would be homeless. Also,most homeless people are homeless just for a while. But people in Nigeria, will start their lives as homeless and end it as homeless. Comparing Nigeria to the Western world is like comparing ant to an elephant. And yes,, there are more opportunities in the Western world than in Nigeria. Supports right and left. Stop decieving people, you are vexing me

There is credit card, which means you can borrow for a while, and their are houses of $450,shared apartments,etc. If you work in AA factory, anyone should be able to make that in a month to keep himself warm in a home.
You can rent room together with your friend just like in Nigeria. And these western worldss have immigrants from all over the world that could also lead to lots of people being homeless, but most of these people would be homeless for a while till things get better.
And also,, no mosquitoes,so if they are homeless,at least no mosquito to disturb their sleep

It's better to be homeless over there than living in Nigeria hell
