This excerpt from yr post says it all. "First They are still in DENIAL.." ....... "I don't know if you know... but our brain is defensive in nature, it will automatically switch straight to denial mode..." Only those rooted in human psychology will understand these excerpts.When beliefs are challenged,the human mind puts up a defence to counter that challenge.This is when the ancestor brain i.e. the limbic 6tem or emotional brain takes hold of an individual and shuts out the neocortex(thinking brain). Only an infinitesimal few can handle the moment if they are caught up in such situation. |

I absolutely agreed with all you said but having lived abroad for 10 years, I still believed some people are not good candidates to Japa. First, people who are established in Nigeria. Why would someone who have a career, stable job and a house sell everything and move abroad? They are right about quadrupling their income but when you factor tax and bills, they will end up at ground zero at the end of the month. The second type of people that should NEVER try Japa are people who are advance in age. Why should a retired person take his gratitude, sell his house and move to US thinking miracles who somehow happen? I know a very distant cousin who sell his property, add his pension and moved to US in his late 60's. He has stroke and dementia and still has to work cos he has not work long enough to qualify for social security income and neither is he a citizen. Older people, don't try it. You will definitely regret it. Younger, unemployed, underemployed should by all means leave Niaja for real. The situation is hopeless back home and it can't get worse as long as you do not Japa to countries that are worse off compare to Nigeria. Do your research, invest time and plan before you move is always my advice. gforce5: 4 Likes 2 Shares |

Me I have stopped advicing anyone because they will never hear word. Everybody should do whatever they like. Husband will be working in GTB Bank as a Manager. Maybe wife is working in one good job too in Corporate Nigeria. Typical High-Middle Class family with Teenage kids or kids that are about 8years to 10 years. Rather than think of how to capitalize on their gains, they will now sell all their property and come and "hustle' abroad. Can you tell me which hustle they want to start doing abroad at 40 to 50 years of age? Why not.look for money to send your kids to come school abroad? The risk to reward ratio is just too high if they fail. Japa may not work for you. Now what? Atleast if you must Japa eventually do it legally and not through visiting visa,or other shady means. 7 Likes |

MimiSheWrote: This is my real name. I live in North Carolina in the USA...lived here for about 20 years, moved back to Nigeria for a couple years and now back to USA. For a full digest of my views on this topic you can read my comment history. When a poster very glaringly LIES to the community, they have lost credibility. No one should listen to them. You wrote this: Look... Somehow all these countries are intelligently designed In such a way that it take back almost entirely everything you make out here from you one way or the other... Through tax, through mind blowing bills or random expenses around every corner. So how did I build houses in Nigeria? How come the majority of residential homes in Nigeria are built by Nigerians abroad? Cash savings, that's how it's done! Cash savings is how Nigerians abroad are able to send $10 to $25 billion back to Nigeria every year and that's just the FORMAL transfers, not the unrecorded cash in luggage and goods. For comparison the budget of the Federal Government of Nigeria has been around $20 billion for the past 10 years. Summary is that you LIED. Most Nigerians that move abroad send lots and lots of money to Nigeria. You know it and I know it. No one should take you seriously when you lie so simplistically. Everything else you write is thus suspect. Yes, MimiYouLied! Nice topic though, very reliable way to generate traffic. Good Luck to Nigerians! 16 Likes |

Wodu89: The best thing you can do for your self in your life time. Please travel and explore. Life is not just about, building house, buying cars and having family. Explore to see the beautiful world you are in before you exit this world. As for me, even if I have 1 billion in my account, I will still travel. Because I see no sense in it if I don't. What will I use the millions for? Explore and enjoy life. 5 Likes 1 Share |

You stated that 3% make it while 97% are suffering abroad which is a bloody fallacy, even if you choose to assume stats. Do you think everyone gives a hoot about amassing wealth. What about just living in a sane environment? Every adviser against Japa equates people's migration motives to be linked with money. Don't you see how bad Nigeria's political and legal systems are? Do you know what people who live in some parts of the North, remote villages contend daily regarding kidnapping, tribalism, hunger, hardship and terrorism. Stop this myopic sentiments! People migrate for different purposes. Even with the taxes and NI and what nots you pay in the UK you still get services you pay for and enjoy a safe and secure system. In Europe or wherever you reside, do you see high fences or gates? Can you live like that with opulence in Nigeria without police escorts, or security dogs to protect you? There are many metrics that makes Nigeria a bad place to live at the moment because you are hanging on a thread of eventuality. Medical care is for the extremely rich. You think I'm lying? Go to Lasuth, Gbagada or other general hospitals and see people dying to be attended to. A citizen in an hospital waiting to see a doctor is like a prisoner on deathrow. No hope. Come down from your high horse and see that the hope is no longer in this system. If not for biological determinism that makes you a child of an opulent family, do you think you won't be contemplating JAPA now. People have enough reasons to leave the country and its not only financial! 5 Likes 1 Share |

The sad thing is that, Nigerians are the ones spoiling the name Nigeria, Most Nigerians travel abroad, and engage in internet fraud, like cyprus. 93% of Nigerian youths over there are internet fraudsters or into prostitution. Exactly the same reason UAE placed a ban on Nigeria. 2 Likes |
