Princess treatment that ends when you get sick.
Which Nigerian politicians are getting treated in Nigeria?

1Sharon:


In other words you ain't tryna hear anything.

Don't accuse me of anything if you're not trying to understand my posts. Classic naralander.

1Sharon:


But their kids still run around in circles for them when they're sick lol.

Lol but with Nigerian politicians, notice that despite the money they siphon. They still return to their homeland. They are old men.

executive12:
$5000 per month is $60,000 a year.
After all the deductions (health insurance, social security, State/City taxes, etc) you might be taking home less than $48,000.
Then you take out your rent/mortgage, cars payment, then food, etc. At the end, not much left. And the rat race continues until retirement. It's not as easy as most Nigerians think.
But I must admit that most Nigerians would be better off there. Because in Nigeria, they may not have any opportunities at all.

You are what you call me...a typical Nairalander.

You are being dodgy and evasive in your communication. Come out and say what you want mean with "your full chest". You are not trying to discourage anyone. But what is with the cold and princess treatment story? You are trying to be diplomatic so that it won't seem like you are one of those who discourage people.

I'm telling you that old people are living abroad in cold places and prefer to stay there. But you insist that they don't like it but are staying there because they are trapped. So since you are here, I will ask you some questions.

What exactly is trapping these old people that they can't come back because of the cold?

Are all the elderly.people who have decided to stay abroad despite the cold trapped?

Have all the elder people abroad complained to you?

You know some, doesn't mean you know all.

1Sharon:


Oh really? you sound like a dreamer.

Doing what exactly ?

Any Nigerian living in America who talks bad about Nigeria and claim they will never retire back to Nigeria are broke, miserable suicidal and mentally dead. Run away from any Nigerian in America bad mouthing Nigeria. Most of my folks in Texas read what I write here but they are never offended- because majority of them have investments here that fetches them between 70million to 100million annually after all expenses. You will never hear such people talk bad about Nigeria. They are always looking for an opportunity to expand and quickly become a naira billionaire. But you see that mumu RN, donkey taxi driver, monkey factory worker, idiot Beautyaddy, etc..na their mouth you go dey hear I went to Nigeria everywhere was looking dirty. You see that dirty looking person, he get money pass una times 10. Long as he is engaged in something he spends over 10 million annually on himself and family. Idiotic people wey pack themselves inside two bedroom like sardine they compare people living like Kings back in Nigeria to their smelling shiithole America

My older relatives that live here spoke of retiring back to Nigeria for years but still none of them have done it permanently as they planned.
None of them are trapped and most of them have great pensions. They just grew accustomed to living a better quality of life here and comfort and peace of mind are very important to our elders.

My parent went back 4 years ago for a three month visit but was calling the airline to get the ticket changed and cut the visit short after 3 weeks. Older people come to realize that the Nigeria of today is not the Nigeria of their youth.

If someone offered to pay to relocate those complaining back to Nigeria and sent a jumbo jet to escort them home, I bet most of them would refuse to board.

Can you go back and read my first response to you and stop asking me dumb questions.

You said you don't want to read anything and yet you expect me to repeat myself. Getat

It is selfish because he is saying he and his friends can afford 247 light and he is using it as a basis of argument as if every other person can afford it.
It looks like those doing well in Nigeria prefer Nigeria to be in this shape. They seem to enjoy the attention they get. Having 247 light and other basic amenities in Nigeria is nothing to be proud of or happy about in public. Rather what we should be happy and proud of is when the whole country has 247 light for everyone. Nigeria needs to level up with other countries in the world in terms of the basics, we can talk about science and technology later.

The poor in Nigeria deserve to have the basic amenities like the poor in other parts of the world too. Light, water,good roads,good public schools, good hospitals shouldn't be for the selected few who can afford it, they are the basics of living for crying out loud. If we can't understand this fact, I don't know how we can ever get past this level as a country.

jiniux:


Are you an American or European? You are more guilty of your accusation unless you are a foreigner. You prefer to leave the poor in Nigeria to live in a place where the citizens prefers to make their country work instead of looking for the easy way out like you did!
He’s still in Nigeria and contributing his quota.

Lovenorth:
Who is he advising?

GetMeRight:


With money, you can still manage to give yourself those quality life in Nigeria. How many years do we even have on earth to be working two, three jobs a day coupled with unfriendly extreme weather?

ImaIma1:


Right!

I knew you were a spoilt, unreasonable and immature little girl disguised as an adult that has sense.

Your real self was bound to be let loose and I wasn't disappointed.

Carry your "born in the UK oversabi cold self" off my mentions.

1stGenAmerican:


It isn’t unusual for a garbage man to make $75-100,000 usd per year.

A hair braider working from her home can easily make over $5,000 per month. American women pay $200 for braids that would cost $25 in Nigeria. I know two Ghanaian sisters who each average about 2 heads per day and work five days a week. That’s $8,000 a month, $6,000 on a bad month and imagine if they worked on Saturday. The Senegalese are also making a killing braiding and that isn’t a professional job.

1Sharon:


You're so stupid I swear. You mentioned me first, I replied you, you didn't like my response and now you're pressed.


Yes I was born in the UK, does that make you mad? Not all of us are immigrants my darling


I've never discouraged from anybody from travelling because I've never had such a conversation! Most of the people I care about, live in the west.

I'm sorry you're mad.

ImaIma1:


Madam "elderly people are trapped abroad" keep ranting. But do well to release them from your trap first.

If you like be born in Sri Lanka, Azerbaijan or ntak iyang, it doesn't change the fact that "immigrants" are better than you sweetie.

Being born in the UK seems like your greatest achievement. You should put it in your bio and profile .

Mad? Why would I be mad? Do you know where I was born??! I was born in Lagos, Nigeria! How about that!

1Sharon:


Oh really? You accused me of talking like I know how every country is supposed to run and yet now want to claim immigrants are better than me?



You asked me if anybody discouraged me from travelling and I had to let you know that I was already born in the west. I didn't bring that fact out of nowhere.

YOUR INSECUIRTY is leading you feel my place of birth is a greatest achievement, that's why you called it that. I never flung where I was born in your face. It came up in our conversation naturally.

I mentioned my place of birth casually. You didn't take it casually. That's why you've repeated it back to me twice now. You won't let it go.

You're pressed and you know it.

ImaIma1:


Your IQ?
Wow! Sorry I didn't know. Will let you be now.

1Sharon:


Oh yes I know our counterparts in America make a killing. But this isn't the situation in Europe

In the foreseeable future, if you want to visit any country other than the United States without one of these electronic assessment cards in your passport, you will need a visa.
