Such a selfish post @op.. kudos to everyone on FP who put him in his place. The reasons for staying in Nigeria never exceeds "money" .. money that majority of the citizens will never smell in their lifetime! Not everyone wants to make it on "Forbes list" abeg.. most just want a safe, comfortable life in a system that works. 8 Likes 1 Share |

Korllami007: Nope, what i mean is exactly in line with what the op wrote. Any literate person should understand that migration from sub Saharan Africa is purely based on economics. Whether it was caused by the government, bad economy, bad infrastructure is an entirely seperate topic. The desperation is based on economics, the welfare argument is false because welfare isn't free, it costs tax payers. I'm traveling abroad because it's better ![]() 3 Likes |

Kriss216:. May God bless you. Foolish write up. What is the life expectancy in Canada? What is the poverty rate in Canada? In Canada there is good road network, world class hospitals with free medical,24 hours electricity, job opportunity for all citizens, security is very superb, there is student loan for tertiary student and many more advantages for being a Canadian. Well, one thing I know is that education is not a wisdom and common sense is not a course in University. Look at the way he was mentioning billionaire,must we all be a billionaire? That is what is killing us in Nigeria everybody want be like Dangote. The beautiful of this life is to live a comfortable living life which 95% of Canadians are living. You might not have thousands of dollars in your bank account in Canada but you will enjoy your life to the fullest. A street sweeper in Canada is living a good life than permanent secretary in the ministry in Nigeria. Don't let anyone decieves you Canada is a paradise on Earth while Nigeria is a hell fire on Earth. If you have the opportunity to relocate please do it. God bless nairalanders. 6 Likes |

Maturedconnect: The OP has already done that. That is enough info on the two What i will add is that travelling abroad and living abroad are two different things. When u travel u only see the things the want u to see, the beauty, infrastructure etc. But when u are living there, the nightmare will dawn on u. That said, everyone can make up their mind as to what they wish. I cant say people should use my experience not to emigrate. I can only tell u what i know, living in naija is far better! 5 Likes |

Lol, how many Nigerians can go to Canada or Western countries? Remember we're a country of 150million people. It's not only Nigerians that are migrating, Ghanaians, Indians, Chinese etc are also migrating. A time would come when these Westerners would shut their borders, after they get tired of using immigrants or when they feel immigrants are becoming a threat. We have no other country but Nigeria, it's high time we start trying to fix our home rather than running away, cause nobody would do it for us. Also, the post isn't rubbish, the OP made some serious facts. pansophist: 3 Likes

angelfallz: Leave that thjng. I know close to 20peopke who have moved to Canada and they are all working in good places such as banks, insurance companies, IT firms etc. It depends on your quality. These are people who previously worked for Zenith, GTB, Shell, Mobil, KPMG, Deloite, Unilever etc in Nigeria, with solid experiences. If you go to Canada with degree, but with no pedigree from here, well maybe you may find it more difficult. Same reason why poor quality graduates are almost unemployable here. 2 Likes |

Focusmind: I don't think it's hate per say, although I do think a lot of people abroad experience the blues once in a while especially if they lead a lonely life abroad.. it's easy to forget what drove them away from Nigeria in the first place.. so they may discourage others out of sentiments.. ..my own story is different, I've lived abroad through childhood and now in my late twenties and I'll always advocate for young people to move abroad.. The truth is that, you will find that majority of those who discourage others are actually based in Nigeria and cannot leave for one reason or the other.. (visa rejections, those who failed abroad and moved back.. those who were never happy both abroad and now in Nigeria..) bottom line is, misery loves company.. 12 Likes |

One of the most annoying thing about Nigeria is that ones money keeps losing value at an exponential rate. Imagine working for five years to gather #10 million only to realize after five years that the money is now worth half its price. A poor citizen who needed $15,000 to migrate abroad would need to save #2,550,000. After spending five years to gather the money, he then realize that he would need #5,250,000 for the same $15,000. What changed? Inflation! A mismanaged economy. Kriss216: 7 Likes |

Op, since you bent on discouraging innocent Nigerians or immigrants not to travel to a better country if you have a residence permit or passport of any of these great countries, may it be withdrawn from you... May you be deported back to Nigeria.....and may you have a travel ban from different countries.... People are just wicked... 2 Likes |

One of the main reasons why people migrate to developed countries is for better quality of life. The quality and availability of health care is these western countries cannot be compared with Nigeria. One chronic illness in Nigeria e.g. cancer, kidney failure is enough to wipe out your savings in a very short time due to non-availability of good health insurance. Yes, it may be easier to make money in a developing economy but other factors must be considered such as a better future for your children and their children. 3 Likes 1 Share |

The first post has said it all, THE MOST STUPID POST OF THE YEAR. That's what this post is. I really do not know where to start but I guess he couldn't get the opportunity to travel to Canada that's why he's pouring his anger here. Keep trying until you get it and stop deceiving people by comparing Nigeria with Canada and US. You said one can easily be short in the street of New York than that of Lagos. Really, it's obvious that you do not know Lagos very well and you have not been to New York too. Let me just hold my peace. My advice: Stop deceiving people ok. 3 Likes |
