Lifemanage: It's not only the rich, it's the upper middle class, and regular middle class. They usually contribute money and borrow money to give to the "japaee" in return that the "japaee" would repay the money and keep sending money back home. This was the case with my two cousins who "japaed" in 2022. 3 Likes |

IbeOkehie: Is Nigeria worse than Afghanistan ? Syria? Palestine or even Somalia? in terms of insecurity? or even poverty [FORGET THEM SAYING NIGERIA IS THE POVERTY CAPITAL OF THE WORLD - THAT IS BECAUSE OF OUR POPULATION of poor people - but these countries I mentioned above have nauseating poverty] Compare the migration rate from Nigeria to those countries - you will discover that our craze to JAPA is born more out of hate for our country and personal inferiority complex than just survival --- the bandwagon effect - MR A B and C don JAPA - na only me remain - when him return now with dollars him go come dey make yanga for me - I must travel too - that is 90% of the reason most Nigerians travel not because they have to travel to make it or live a good life [FACT] 2 Likes |

004gist: I can only pray that God will strengthen people to avoid making rash decisions with their lives. We must understand the fact that japa would not benefit everyone. It isn't for everyone. Yes it is tough here in Nigeria. But still it is home to millions of us. Many don't have the privilege and opportunity which some have. So let's stop making people depressed by using our words to paint our nation as trash. It isn't everyone who have relocated abroad that is better of. Some are regretting it today. Please think before you take that step. 2 Likes |

Re: I Envy People Who Left Nigeria Already. by jimcaddy(m): 3:03am On Feb 02 |
Do Nigerians think that once you are abroad, then your sorrows are over, and that you become so rich overnight? Do you know the hardship those abroad face? They work their arseeees off daily. No one will dash you free money. Bills, rent, transport will take everything away. It's not easy oh. Yes Nigeria is hard at the moment, but if we can all become United and speak with one voice, then Nigeria will be great again. But as long as everyone remains selfish, self centred, greedy, nothing will change. 2 Likes |

Animegirl: Take heart my dear.. I feel all you said.. We must trust God to come through for us. In the midst of it all, prayer is the key. Sometimes when it feels like i have given up on prayers too, i just put on NSPPD and listen in on the prayers and before i know it, i find myself praying along even if it is with tears in my eyes.. God does answer prayers on the alter of fire. Try it out. Shalom. 1 Like 1 Share |

scally11: The people advising u that it's tough abroad and they regret their decision are not coming back cos they have nothing to come back to. How do they come back when they sold their cars, all their lands and some sold their house? To come back is to again start afresh d third time. They are advising u but u don't want to hear. U think it's cos they don't want u to live a good life, no. It's like joining a cult u think it's easy to just get out? Abroad is good for some class of people, if u are single below 30, if u get a scholarship for school or u get a job ready for u and a direct visa sponsorship from an employer (not carer job oh, real professional job). Anything outside that, be ready for d shock of your life, ur relations and friends u went to meet there will gradually isolate u if not immediately. My friend will say "abroad na cult, we don't tell u d dirty secrets until u have come and experience it yourself and u can not easily go back". Be wise 1 Like |

79733139:Nigerian politicians are a reflection of the average Nigerian mind. Only 20% think patriotically or for the common good. Now the fortunate hard working ones are leaving the country leaving the few who are not yet in the middle class or rich to find their way around the Nigerian situation. Every one has right to their decisions but both those who are escaping are part of making this country a failed state. But those still around, will definitely solve these problems especially those born in the 80s. 1 Like 1 Share |

faceland:People make choices every time, oftentimes, they aren't good decisions. MasterTeeUSA might not have been deported so he can still go back abroad when he notices the dollar to naira rate conversion. Last year, I worked in a hotel for a while. A guest came and asked me where he could change some dollars he had. I offered to help him. When the aboki came, I realized 100$ was equivalent to 56,000naira. That's just 1 piece of 100$ bill o. Now, let's assume you are spending in naira, what problems can you solve with 56k and do you know it's very hard to even raise 56k legitimately or even on employment basis? If you are abroad, you will get jobs that can offer higher than 100$ in a day o. And yes, just to point out that $100 is no longer equivalent to 56,000naira. 2 Likes |

MasterTeeUSA:lol I totally get you bro. I have done that security before. It's not a stressful job but it brings a huge set of discomfort and it's own set of suffering into your life. Like you said, after 12 hour shift them getting train home then trying to sleep in the morning is impossible and then at 5pm you have to get ready to go and do it again. It's killing. It's a different kind of stress that Nigerians can never understand. With Nigerians so far as you are in the UK with a job you are enjoying life. They can never understand the realities of a different kind of suffering even in a sane environment Well 3 Nigerians just found out the reality of that different kind of stress in the UK. In the past 3 months, 3 Nigerians in the UK died on the job. 2 Likes 1 Share |
