Panda7: You are a funny dude. Come and see middle age dudes in IT working for banks earning between 1 million to 2 million naira per month in Nigeria. Because you have not seen do not mean it does not exist. Such people plenty for Victoria Island in Lagos. 14 Likes 2 Shares |

Except you are a lazy duck or your village people are greatly after you, noone leaves Nigeria and remains on survival job for more than 2 years. Worse case 3 years, so you poor folks should stop trolling people who relocated because you cannot. If you could earn N1m a month in Nigeria, believe me, you have potential to earn N10m equivalent ($85750) in the West. 10 Likes 1 Share |

teewhydope: That is if you have a company willing to employ you and shell out that money every month. Else you can try big tech companies like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Tumblr, FIFA+, EA, Laliga, Premier league etc. As far as I know, creating just API's doesn't guarantee your job security but being able to utilize it to your end users shows you understand what you are doing 3 Likes |

SeniorGee: I think the bold is overly simplistic. PS: I speak about life generally and not about any particular location. There are lazy people who have succeeded - such is life. One bum has a contact who succeeds say at politics, and boom! Or one talented but lazy artiste pens just one song, and boom! Or forget all these. Lets be more direct. Lazy man wins the lottery - boom! Or lazy woman meets billionaire who likes her bum bum - and boom! There are hardworking people who will die not just in poverty, but in the worst kind of desperate, wretched poverty. Life is a mystery. Believe you me, I am not saying hard work isn't good - it's great (best when its smart work) - I am just saying life is a many-splendored thing. Someone once said he had seen slaves go on horseback while princes go on foot. 17 Likes 7 Shares |

Do I regret leaving my corporate job to start over in the UK? To be very honest with you The answer is No Not at all. From what I have come to learn Whether you will regret travelling abroad or not is contingent on WHY you left the country in the first place If you left for the "wrong" reasons You will regret everyday I left the country primarily for non financial reasons I was fed up with the culture of foolishness that permeates that country The culture is wrong The mentality is wrong And I don't want to be in the midst of that That's MY own reason So regardless of my financial conditions here (thankfully I am not doing badly at all) As long as the society remains the way it is Then I am fine The only thing that will make me regret leaving Is if this country becomes a cultural cesspit like what I fled ; which is highly unlikely 21 Likes 2 Shares |

Panda7: Creating just apis can guarantee you that amount as long as you know what you're doing. Facebook/Instagram is out of the discussion, i'm talking about tech companies in Nigeria, there are a lot of them scattered around lagos and i'm not even talking about kuda, interswitch, moniepoint n co. There's money in Nigeria tbh, you just need to know where to look. Even some entrepreneurs are making more money than programmers sef; finding the right connection is the key. 10 Likes 2 Shares |

teewhydope:Kindly take this your argument to a computer guy, I have a computer science degree and other programming degree, people who code, don't code because of salary, they code because they want to solve problems, create new programs, for fun or just to debug codes. CEO's of these companies knows exactly who they need and what function they need them for, and just not necessarily programmers. Programmers are only just hired for jobs not for employment. 2 Likes |
