Comparing Nigeria with America? Really? Even Benin Republic is better than Nigeria. They have a system that works. Basic amenities are what they are: Basic things that every Tom, Dick and Harry has. Do you know what it feels like to have electricity every single second of every single day of your life? To drive on good roads, to have your basic rights respected? To be able to afford food? To send your kids to the best school in the world. To know that in case anything happens to you, your children will be catered for? Here basic amenities are electoral promises that the foolish politicians dangle at us every 4years make the gullible ones vote. How many people earn 80,000/month in Nigeria? Really how many? So many things to say but as I dey type I just dey vex. Nigeria is not fit to be mentioned in the same sentence with The U.S. 37 Likes 8 Shares |

Americans who are first class citizens can't even save for a down payment in 10 yrs.

supersystemsnig:even in many african countries. The standard of living is far better than nigeria. And secondly, there is something very funny about the way we africans or should I say nigerians see things. Why do ppl take house building as a sign or measurement of success? So once someone can build a house,iit means he is auccessful ![]() 12 Likes 1 Share |

timesup234: Oga thats a very big fat lie. In this present Naija, you can't get a 2bed apartment for that amount, except of course in an underdeveloped area. I was at Abuja recently to visit a family there. They are a young couple with 2 kids. Thay stay in a 2 bed apartment and they pay a milli per annum. Also, i have been to America amd planning to finally relocate there. I was there for 6 months this year already and i know how life is there and know what Naija people there are achieving. Believe it or not, an ordinary salary earner or even a cab driver in America is far better than a bank manager here in Naija. After house rent, gas and electricity bills, Naija people over there still get to send money down home here and build houses and have investments here. That your assumption that a person doin normal job there can never build a duplex here till next 20 years is a big fat lie, make more research. You claim most Americans dont have up to 10k savings in theor account? You really more ignorant. Have you asked yourself this, the Americans people getting scammed of thousands of dollars through wire, dating etc, how do those people get those savings? There are lots of Americans with as much as between 100k to over 1milli savings in their accounts. Get ya facts right. Also, even if we wanna assume "Okay, most Americans dont have up to 10k savings" dont you fink they might not feel the need to? Since they are earning their income constantly without getting owed like Naija Govt does and they get money to meet their needs at the right time cos payment is stable. Also, they feel its their country and no need saving up since they aint planning runnin to any other place. And also, they have everything within their reach e.g power supply, water, good roads, health care etc. A serious Naija citizen would feel the need to be saving up constantly cos he knows its not his country and he has to tie things down back home. Definitely, he would be saving every dime he has to spare and send down here to be getting projects done and investments set up. Naija people in yankee with decent jobs are making waves here in Naija, get yo facts right and stop being ignorant. 54 Likes 8 Shares |

blank: I also intend to relocate. Not that i live poorly, but the stress level is on overdrive, one could lose one's mind just walking around metropolitan areas like Lagos..The mental condition of many Nigerians are dilapidated due to the problems that surrounds... too much challenges, why won't they relocate? Many times, relocating takes place when they have saved enough funds, and not to seek greener pastures. The climes there are saner. 3 Likes |
