I don't think, Nigeria, or otherwise, a lot of you know what "home" really even is. But that's okay too. |

Matthew briggs: We are still saying the same thing. Going frequently doesn't show you anything, you need a prolong stay and semi integration to see if you'll still uphold your values. 3 Likes |

It think it is only the mortuary-attendant-Nigerians and road-sweeping-Nigerians abroad that find it difficult to visit their homes. If not, no place like home, lol! Proudly Nigerian. 1 Like |

lol.. does this post make sense? the people with good paying careers abroad are the ones living very comfortably so they'd be less eager to go back home.. notinmege: It think it is only the mortuary-attendant-Nigerians and road-sweeping-Nigerians abroad that find it difficult to visit their homes.

Generally life is not easy here in Nigeria, i did seventeen years in europe before returning back to Nigeria two years ago. The only thing i notice here is that war is not beautiful. It's just like a war. I know what i am saying. My little advice for people planning to finally return back to Nigeria, they should get prepare very well. Thank God i did not make the mistake of bringing my children along with me. |

Okay. If you wanna stay, you stay if not, leave! By the way, to have a great country goes beyond fixing/building, it is more of renovation/sustainance. |

And what is the proportion of Nigerians that have turned the UK into a shopping mall? most of those that are able to lay their hands on the national cake? What about the many Nigerians that dream of entering a shopping mall here in Nigeria. Let us open our eyes and look around us. What you see is poverty. Stop burying you heads in the sand and think that when you close the gates to your big mansion everybody else is ok. 1 Like |

automaticcarzz: I have been living in the U.S since year 2001. I will be returning home when there is 24hr power supply. When there is good road network. When police are able to respond to calls within 5 minutes. When there is emergency health and fire response squad that respond to emergency within 5 minutes. When there is rule and order. When the police stop brutalizing the people they suppose to protect. When there is true democrcy. When the President stops harassing political opponents. When there is adequate security of lives and properties.the country way you there stay,nobi somebody do all this this there??you are a self centered wicked man.stay there for ever |

I studied and lived in the UK for more than 5 years but trust me I had had to run back to naija where I must confess life is easier for me. I have a table water business going on which I wouldnt have thought of while in the UK. I am also into properties which is my major area of concentration and its going really well. To me life is what you can make of it no matter where you are and as for me, I know i would be travelling alot but my home will still remain my route which is naija. 3 Likes |

/ I will visit Nigeria at the appointed time. Not any time soon. Nigeria is too expensive with minimal returns. I travel a lot to many countries. By far, Nigeria seems to be the most expensive. Fuel, water, security details, logistics, friends and foes, running from one hotel to the other, etc. It all adds up. I am at a stage that I don't need unnecessary stress in my life. The house I am building in the village is for the heck of it. I will never sleep there. The question becomes: What is the definition of home? Of course, a house is not necessarily a home. \ |

Billyonaire:/ I used to think so. It depends on the circle you move my friend. For sure, you hardly see Nigerian big boys in Nigerian organizations. But when governors and ministers visit, they know who and who to contact. The ones that are visible are the empty barrels. \ |

Whats up people? Keep it coming .... I really enjoyed reading your contributions,plus those that are in Ikeja claiming to be in diaspora because they left east for Lagos. Well, I am taking us back, back to the real topic of this thread. Nigerians in diaspora, when are returning? If you dont want to return, simply say so. If you want to return, feel free to state it too. Africa generally , not only Nigeria, is way behind as compared to Europe, America, North America etc,I won't say much on this. But, why is this topic not on FB...This topic makes more sense than many on FB. CC: Lalastica FB things pls. |
