celestialAgent: lol. Your analysis is a joke!
1.2m in Nigeria would avail you a better life than $2708 would avail you in the UK. You even reached the monthly value without considering taxation, lmao!!!
To all those quoting me saying I’m not exposed, lol. Thank you
But always ask yourself why it seems your families or colleagues abroad usually get more busy than they were in Nigeria once they relocate. They are not avoiding you, they can’t just help working their a** out on multiple jobs to sort the bills.
But let them continue sugarcoating the reality for you, lol!
While they do, ask them the last time they flexed in a clubs, bars, nice events, etc. It's non-existent because they are always working to keep afloat.
All at the expense of their health. Doing crazy night jobs when weather is -4 degrees as a second or third job.
Once you relocate, you struggle to remain a Nigerian because it becomes unrealistic to exhibit a true Nigerian lifestyle. Nigeria is a culture, not just a name. well well, look how good that culture has turned Nigeria ![angry](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/angry.png) |

brodalikeme: None!! it’s not all about money. In fact, with more money comes the risk of been kidnaps. More money is not a guarantee for quality life in Nigeria. E.g More money doesn’t guarantee that the beef you’re buying from the market was hygienically killed, roasted and sold. Chances are they used tyres to roast it. This caught me. 1 Like |

I was interviewing candidates last week and realised almost all of them have plans of relocating (JAPA). To make matters worse, the top 3 candidates already have their Visa approved.
With the permission of the HR, i asked them what salary range will make them remain in Nigeria, the response was shocking.
Let's discuss. What salary range can make you remain in Nigeria instead of migrating or Japaing? 5M.... even my director no dey see that one per month 1 Like |

QuinModah: Anyone who will stay in Nigeria because of a higher salary is quite confused about the logic and purpose of their japa. This is basic maths, but nobody pays attention in maths class these days.
To be honest, alot of Nigerian's leaving the country is for a better life standard, and not necessarily money, people are seeking for safety, good health care system, quality education system etc. Trust me with your money in this country you can't afford those, you can't buy safety (ask some generals in the army why their kids are abroad & why they relocate after service and you get the answers you seek) , these are functions of government responsibilities, which they have failed without any form of remorse.
Nigerians are no longer safe in their country, you have a good job, you are prone to be kidnapped, you drive a good car, you can be robbed and killed, kids are spending close to a decade in public universities for a 5years program. The exodus campaign out of the country is based on having quality lifestyle, Nigerians are simply tired of not been safe in their country anymore. The good Job comes with its inherent risks of been killed, robbed, or kidnapped, so trust me is beyond the salary to stay back in a system designed to shorten your life span. fix the country and Nigerians will stay back.
it is not a salary issue. Are you aware there is no middle class in Nigeria again?, a good number of Nigerians are one chronic disease away from poverty. Have we not seen someone that returned back to Nigeria to work at the rate of same salary structure.
This case here depends on the person skill-set, and how important such person is to the firm.
Average entry level salary in UK is
$32,500 = ₦14,428,050.00 yearly.
Let's break it down.
$32500/12 = $2,708 making ₦1,202,189.52 monthly. (Subjected to all statutory deductions)
In short there are many companies that can afford this in Nigeria depending on how skilled you are.
Note: it's not bad to japa and it's not bad to stay back, but it's depends on your purpose.
Let me stop here. Comprehensive You will be a good teacher |

Re: What Salary Range Can Make You Remain In Nigeria? by xandy84: 6:44pm On Dec 09, 2022 |
40 millions for japa runs does not make economic sense. Almost $60k just to come America or UK while you end doing menial jobs here. It does not matter what you are or do in Naija, you have to start all over here and with that type of investment. Does not make a single sense... sisisioge:
I just left naija not too long ago, was single, was in HR and earned close to that 700k as my net. Yet I left. I had friends who left earning close to twice that amount but still left. You are correct, comfort is relative, simply living in a comfy apartment, driving comfy car and being able to afford good food might be enough for some, while others need beyond that to feel comfortable. The salary scaled up significantly in naija since January 2022....the fresh from NYSC doctors in a hospital I worked with earned 300k while those with experience earned as much as 1.2m. Dont even think it....salaries had scaled way higher than you thought.
Let me add that those doing japa runs spending close to 40m aren't all borrowing fa....where do you think the savings came from? 3 Likes |
