I'm not gonna lie...I miss Nigeria sometimes which makes me flirt with the idea of splitting my time there when my kids are older. I miss my family, my friends and the sense of community.

But then I remember lack of internet and electricity, horrific healthcare system, bad roads, bigotry, lack of value for human life, insecurity, police brutality, immense corruption, tribalism, crumbling or non-existent economy and a million other horrible things. This quickly resets my mind.

My solution which I'm currently working on is to bring my sisters and my best friend over to live in Sydney with me and make good living for themselves. Then I won't have any business with Nigeria anymore except to visit my parents every two years.

So to answer your question: no, nein, never!!!

Like. Seriously.

Ur best friend to Sydney.

Woow!!
Are u for real?

This talk about adapting, as if there's anything good in adapting to nonsense living is laughable.

Common basic amenities the country can't boast of and we get talks about adapting as though its some honourable thing to do. SMH.

Why should anyone adapt to epileptic power supply and corruption and fraud and insanity in general? Why? Just why?

Sorry sir but I'm married

Your thinking is in line. Nigeria has a way of making the rich, poor, skilled and unskilled cry. Graduates have been reduced to internet beggars and lazy youths as described by my dear president.


Please remain were you are

ibkayee:

Sorry sir but I'm married

I disagree. File for divorce or better still, practice polyandry

Crazy idea.
Save the money to first get rid of Fulani-imported invaders from the south of Nigeria.

Snaagg:
Nigerians abroad, how many of you are considering relocating back to the 'motherland' once this whole pandemic/lockdown debacle is over?

If you are, state your reasons here..

ibkayee:

Lol oh boy

Hmmnn

Come back and do what? Bikonu! Abeg I rather remain here in the UK.. Will only come to visit and probably do one or two investment and Japaa.

ibkayee:

I wouldn't mind living there if the standard living infrastructure were up to par, and when I say par I'm not asking for anything fancy, just don't be a sh*thole

just move to lekki na. problem solved lol

fieryy:


Lol, not going to lie I would have gotten mad as well . I just can't imagine a day without electricity. My WiFi was fluctuating the other day and it drove me crazy. So me imagining having no electricity at all really does give me anxiety, especially during this corona period. All my classes are online biko

you do know there is something called an inverter and battery pack, as well as solar ggenerator as well as petrol generator right ? my sister lives in naija AC 24 7 she has huge diesel generator and then back up of solar energy. na money kill am

ZINIBANKS:
Op you made a mistake it's a typo error
You want to say -
Which country will you migrate to after the pandemic

Thank you

pocohantas:


Not true Ishi. You will in fact have a harder time surviving, as not every country is this abnormal. I saw a thread on Quora, “what is weird in Nigeria, but normal in the rest of the world?”

You can guess the responses.

Lol. That is the reformatting we are talking about. We take pride in nonsense

lekki1444:
just move to lekki na. problem solved lol

That's not really fixing the problem, don't worry sha, when I'm ruler of the world there will be a serious infrastructural overhaul

NgwalandAbia:
moving back to Nigeria when I want my kids to teste life outside the dark hole called nigeria oh hell no I'm not moving back now till I clock 65 thanks

Even after you click 65, please don't come back. What are you coming back to do? We only want those who have the genuine interests of this country at heart, to stay here.

Shebí una don run commot? Oya stay in your abroad until eternity. Why is that so hard?

sircatherine45:


shut up your stinking mouth

e dey pain, ba?

I'm dishing you out your own venom... have fun, slowpoke!!!

Sounds like one of the retarded brainwashed IPIG monkeys. By their thinking and words we shall know them.
Na so you dey tell your father to shut up hence I'm not one bit surprised.

Op

U want to leave heaven on earth to come to hell fire Nigerian made

I'll deal with you and your likes here...
Na Nairaland we dey, not your stinking mother's kitchen...

beware and watch your back...

ibkayee:

If you have good money, you can build your own infrastructure and maintain it. There are estates in Lagos with 24x7 power, thanks to generators and inverters.

Others have constant WiFi thrown in. I have stayed in some places in Naija, and I thought I was still abroad....

A lot of things are possible, here. Just have your money.....

amaniro:


I say it again. Make money in Nigeria and you'll enjoy yourself. Everytime I go to shoprite I see these Indian's Chinese and Lebanese, they have any stores there and I'm like this people will soon start ruling this country o since every youth want to japa who go con remain here?

I try to tell the young people that “Otedola no get two heads.

ibkayee:

the problem of nigeria is not the infrastructure. the problem of nigeria is nigerians. its a beautiful country full of demonic people. during that lockdown period the country was like paradise. you drive on the road peacefully no aggression etc . its a great country. i am talking to you with 24 7 internet from spectranet. its faster than the one i had in UK with plusnet

Kuns84:


You refer to our country as hellfire? How so

A country that many are still living large and never even thinking of leaving but only to just go on vacation and reture to their businesses is what he or she is referring to as hellfire. Well am not surprise, he might be living in hellfire personally.

Don't mind them. Nlanders that believe what they are reading here are doing that at their own peril.

Some of them claiming they can't come back to Naija are getting battered with bills in Obodo Oyinbo. Many of them cant even afford flight ticket to Naija once a year.

One of the big boys that i know of moved to Canada, he had to return to Naija when he realized he could not get the job he was about to leave in Naija.

Please how did you migrate to Sydney ?

If Bola Tinubu, Mike Adenuga, Prof. Onyema, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala and many other eminent Nigerians could relocate back to Nigeria from US, UK, Switzerland, who are you saying Nigeria is thrash, how much are you worth abroad

Most of those saying they will never relocate are young people who just visited abroad or new arrivals or those being fed by their parents abroad...if you want to become rich, you will realise where you ought to be

I use a generator whenever I'm there, luckily I have the means to live comfortably there, my complaining about the unstable light was more a jab at the substandard standard of living overall..in the 21st century. I'm still going to be moving around within the country, I can't be THAT far removed from everything. If it's not the light it will be something else, the light was just an example

gypsey:
Yes, i am moving back next week

really ?

I drove past the passport office in ikeja today and was like....so people still wan travel? The crowd was unprecedented. Meanwhile some young chaps are busy raking in millions monthly inside same country. What we are all looking for in sokoto is right inside our sokoto

Good evening sir, I have been observing your post since last year, you talk about giant strides and great stuff. How do someone make it in this Nigeria.

You are planning for your future but you forced to think of only today because the little or no results you are getting can't carry you that far.

To everyone out there 9ja no easy oh

Every country has its flaws and challenges. It's not all bad in Nigeria - at least we have financial survivors who have/are beat/beating down limitations and pummeling them into excellence.

Also, not everyone staying in advanced world is enjoying the anticipated/imagined life.

Everyone should seek the counsel of God, before taking any decision. God's way is perfect and will give you rest.
