I agree with him as no one wants to leave his homeland. But you can travel for some time and get experience to become more professional. I was also looking for travel services to have a tour from Uk to the USA. I have found a site that offers me a travel package for my Perfect holidays destination. It's an online site offering travel benefits of their parent site. You can view their all in one travel package for various places. They are very clear with their prices as there are no hidden charges. |

Sanchez01: LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO dem no dey tell person nau.. After "making it" in Nigeria you now see reason to leave the country other than on making money terms? God is wonderful |
Re: On Nigerians And The 'must Travel Mentality' by maternal: 7:51pm On Dec 04, 2020 |
Darey00: Making it in Nigeria = I'm doing good. Screw everyone. Government changes my orientation = The naira has gone to sh!t. The Government is killing its people. I'm not as financial stable as I was before. Nigeria's corruption is actually affecting me now. These people don't care about Nigeria. They only care about themselves, yet they form patriotic. Imagine this goat debating in the barbar shop about why he'd never migrate, while laughing at his people who were saying they'd migrate for their kids. Now he's in the same position.

Re: On Nigerians And The 'must Travel Mentality' by Sanchez01: 12:36pm On Dec 05, 2020 |
Ugosample:TRAVEL BUT DON'T DO SO IF YOU DON'T HAVE A SKILL SET, EXCEPT YOU ARE A PROFESSIONAL. I believe that is the thematic preoccupation of the thread. It still feels weird adjusting and making plans. |

Why on earth would people still be on the street after a curfew is in effect??.whoever dies in the process is plainly stupid.

Nig4Greatness: You're comparing making laws to reduce the spread of covid to making laws to oppress protestors, demanding not to be killed or exploited by their police force ? Those people were still on the streets because they were sick of being killed/disrespected by their government/ police force. Even so, they deserve to get killed ? You love to blame the protestors, but don't have the same energy for the criminal politicians stealing the country's money everyday. Or the law enforcement agencies killing and exploiting the people they're suppose to protect. The citizens are lawless and worse than the government? This is the issue with Nigerians. They're the most selfish people on earth. You talking this nonsense because you're not getting affected to a certain degree. If that bullet killed your child or family member, your tone would be different. The original poster is now being affected now he wants to leave. Before that he was as selfish as you. 5 Likes |

Nig4Greatness: So, moving abroad to secure my family's life makes me a bad citizen? It's my country, I'm ready to always support Nigeria from afar because I may get shot while trying to make Nigeria a better place and people like you will only debate whether it's a massacre or a stray bullet. CNN would drop evidences of the shooting and government would deny it without providing their own proofs. The worst part is that citizens will be expecting the deceased family to speak up before they believe (instead of them to unite and finish the fight they started). I love Nigeria but I don give up for Nigeria matter. I will keep supporting from afar. |

Nig4Greatness: I believe you've never been to Lagos. Curfew was announced at noon and was supposed to start at 4pm but was later adjusted to 9pm because it was impromptu and Lagos traffic is crazy. Nigerian army started shooting at the protesters at 6:45pm. So, the securities were wrong to start earlier. Even at that, the army can't justify the shooting because they know it's wrong and animalistic to shoot at your own blood, kill your own family, the same people you've sworn oath to protect! 3 Likes |

safarigirl: I patiently waited for a day like this. What you're just seeing now has been seen by me 6 years ago. You even insulted me in 2014. Now, you're part of same school of thought with me. Definitely, you're no longer in Nigeria. Next time, don't judge or insult others because of their opinion. Welcome to our group! |

maternal:I could ignore and look on while you have a field day with the tomfoolery as usual but feel I should clear the air on this. I AM DIRECTLY NOT AFFECTED BY ANYTHING RIGHT NOW. My angst here is the fact that the rule of engagements and human rights abuse is almost at the level of pure Islamic states across the world. I have never been affected by the harsh economic policies of this government save I spend more on commodities now. The more the dollar goes up, the higher my earnings when converted to out free falling Naira. Not saying I am there yet. At best, I spend more on certain things than I used to. Not like I owe you this but the fact that you have been hyperventilating and throwing shades at me and about how I am affected is amusing. Did I join in the protest, yes. Have I been harassed by SARS officials before? Yes. Severally, in fact. Was that why I joined the protest? Definitely not. Would I join another protest should a second wave happen? Hell yes. Given the power today, I will undo the harsh economic policies that led us all here. It isn't because of me. Even the richest Nigerians of this world are impacted by the misrule of the present administration. I could choose to sleep all day and go out in the evening, it doesn't impact my earnings in the least of ways as it is not tied to a physical office. What I find disgusting is how you and some persons have been latching on to a post of over 5 years ago which does not in any way reflect the craze of today's Nigeria to label me selfish and self-serving because I suddenly embraced the idea of emigrating. And worse, that you have been embittered by it. |

Sanchez01: When you created this thread, your mind was in a different frame, now things are different & any sensible person would understand. In early 2014 when I returned back to Nigeria from school, I had opportunity to travel back or move to another country for work or internship. I neglected it simply because I didn't see the real difference. Things are different now, dollar was 160 - 170 back in 2014 as far as I remember, luckily got a 200k paying job which was more than $1000 dollars at that time. Big Money, Baby boy life. Spent 80k in the club one time, my babe at back then advised I get a Car & cruise around Lagos knowing Toyota Corolla was 900k then ($4000), thank God I followed my Sister's advice & bought a piece of land instead. Phew! After a short while every thing went downhill, dollar crashed in mid 2016, Recession hit companies & had to move to a lower paying job, every thing scattered. My new salary was barely $300 because dollar became 500 Naira in 2016 when there was a spike If I remember clearly before later going back to 360, I couldn't save after so much expenses deducted. The government has tried severally to inject money into the Economy, but keeps failing. Speaking of Dollars, as at yesterday GTBank told me that each person could only withdraw $20,000 daily now because of the Injection of dollars into the economy & it's still not helping issues. Before now, GTB completely prevented every Dorm account owner from withdrawing or transferring their own inflow funds. This is 2020, Foreign reserves is now empty, Now I see every reason I should have left in 2014. 5 Likes 1 Share |
