Japa people are now feeling the heat.

The El Dorado is not what it seemed from the outside, looking in.

Most of them are too broke to even return to Naija.

In all life journey is either you succeed or fail,. Never judge other failure or success with yours. There are thousand of Nigerians that japa that are doing pretty good out there. Before you japa pray about it and go legitimately to good country. Make sure things are in right places before going. Anywhere we are may GOD bless our doing.

If there's no life in the UK,an advance country,then is it in Nigeria that is plaque with different economic problems that is better.

They better start returning back home to live a life of

Unemployment
Insecurity
Bad roads
Dilapidated educational system
Sub standard health care/facilities
Endemic corruption.
The list is endless, living in Nigeria is akin to living in hellfire

U.K has been like that for a while now.. even the Whites are not finding it funny talk more of immigrants.
The problem with Africans is crowd mentality.. oh because this person has gone abroad, I must go too. Ehnn you don go and your eyes don see am.

Oh Africa, blessed continent plagued with bad leaders and docile people.. where some people sleep outside overnight and still carry on fine the next day.. Go try am in UK or Canada and see if you'd live to tell the story.

Lastly, Government should do something about these education agents deceiving Nigerians about opportunities abroad, most Nigerian youths are now stranded because of false assurances from these agents.

If you must work in Nigeria, get a Nigerian degree.. If you go U.K, then don't come back to look for work in Nigeria. Stay there and stay jobless if you don't get job. As simple as that.
That's the only way that Education in Nigeria and Africa will improve and have more worth.

Don’t let anyone lie to you! If there is no life in the UK, why are they still there?

The best thing one can do in Nigeria now is to quit your job, sell your house and all other assets and move to the UK. If you can sell everything in a short time frame and make it to the UK, just know you have made it. They will never tell you that, the UK government will give you €10,000/month for 6 months when you arrive UK.

A country where with 6 months of hard work as a nurse or truck driver, you can be able to afford a mansion in Banana Island.

Don’t listen to naysayers, they don’t want you to come. If you lucky to be wealthy or have parents who are wealthy, start selling anything you can lay your hands on and come to the UK.

Too many jobs in the country and you can never go broke. You can build a 3 story triplex yearly in Nigeria if you hardworking

I'll just take this as sarcasm...

UK:

Unemployment
Underemployment - You have a degree but work as security guard or Uber driver.
High Taxes Depleting your Income
You pay rent.
Road Tax
Car Insurance
Water rate
Monthly hire purchase payment for your car.
Electricity rate
Heating and Gas rate
Child care fees if you are working and have kids. Nothing like ''housegirl'' there.
Council tax
Income tax
TV licence
Phone rate
By month end you're broke.

Otilo.

Only a matter of time before they tax you for the air you breathe.

Of what use is ''good road'' and ''good educational system'' when your life is crap?

There are good roads in Nigeria too. Leave your village and move to Abuja or Uyo or Enugu. Fine roads everywhere and highly secured.

What is ''sub-standard'' about the health care and educational systems? These are the same systems that have produced world class individuals in all spheres, from doctors to engineers and scientists all over the world.

A strong Iroko tree does not grow from weak roots.

Everything African is always ''sub-standard'' in your 'oyinbo' worshipping heads.

One thing you guys need to understand is that the so-called “saner climes” come with a great cost to the people there.

They pay through their noses for it.

Nigerians are not prepared to see great chunks of their income eaten up by taxes and fees, even if you promise them Dubai environment.

We prefer for things to be a bit lax if it means we get to keep more of our money in our pockets to do things we want, like building a mansion in the village, or doing Owambe, or big weddings, or to start a business.

That’s our way. We are never going to be like London and America and all these places where people are forced to limit themselves.

Guys coming back is not an option oo. Stay and manage or relocate to other European countries. The Nigeria u left is worst than bad now oo.

UK is a decaying former power. In 20 Years Nigeria will sur it in GDP.
But even when that happens, Nigerians will still believe the UK is where they will find wealth.

I'm not against japa though, but Europe is a place to be comfortable and minimalisitic. The people there are not doing as well as people assume. US and Canada are the best possible options, but someone who a strong mind will thrive anywhere.

The UK is now an extension of Lagos.
That's what happens when you open doors for mass influx of people from lawless countries. The probability that you gonna absorb a lot of such people is definitely gonna be very high.

I think I am living a freer life with less money here in Nigeria than I would have been in the UK

I think it's the British system. UK is not the only country with Nigerians

NIGERIA GOVERNMENT IS FRAUDULENT.

Immigrating without skills, talents and intelligence will ruin many.

If you did not develop yourself well in Nigeria, you'd struggle abroad.

And for your earnings, you must pay income tax. You must declare the taxes. If you have hospital issue, you might wait for months to get an appointment.

Lebanese, Indians and Chinese who have no skills are rushing to Nigeria to find opportunities. If you have no skills, have the eyes to identify and seize opportunities.

He did not plan well before going.

Economic problems exist everywhere. There are more homeless people in the advanced countries than in Nigeria. You said insecurity. Try and read news from other countries. You'd be shocked at gun killings, stabbings and people using their cars to deliberately hit others.

Drug problems? Do you want us to talk about how it has ravaged many abroad?

I don't agree that the educational system is dilapidated. Were you not present when UK came to poach Nigerian doctors? Nigerian engineers are working and earning well in IOCs. It is people who are not ready to learn who complain of Dilapidated educational system.

Be grateful because it is not a bed of roses elsewhere. You'd think so because you have not been there.

You too can make it.

And nobody told you the Lebanese , indian and chinese already have a structure most Nigerians don't have . Ya'll just too dumb , open your mouth and talk down on people ..

Talking about ioc , last year there was less than 1500 vacancies in the oil sector in the whole world oo. You just too dumb bro , if u see chance to japa , stay Nigeria u hear

Keep dreaming, people have been saying this since i ed this platform but look at where we are today.

So are you expecting the British govt to pay for things you used? Do you get those free in Nigeria?

If you don't want to pay bills then leave the UK and move to your village in Nigeria.

Y'all should return back to Nigeria and stop complaining.

I think it's the British system. UK is not the only country with Nigerians

UK too small to absorb a whole lot of people.
..na supersaturation dey worry UK now.
On top of that, many kom get conduct disorder

Don’t listen to any bloggers

If you watch the Unity cup in Brentford ! You will see how Nigeria took over 80% population of the stadium and that’s just 14k Nigerians population in one city! Oya image the rest of the UK! If the UK was so bad! Nigeria will drive out the UK in mass! No allow anyone to lie o you!

If you have ur funds! Pls pls go and get urself a good life in the UK

But don’t sell family house oh!!

Ire oh 🙌

I know it’s a sponsored post when they say they are too broke to come back, like really? A one way ticket to Nigeria should cost between £400 to £700 depending on the airline. Anyone that truly wants to return to Nigeria from the UK will make that in a month or less foregoing every other thing and return to Nigeria. If you go to the UK Government and ask to return to Nigeria they will put on the next available flight back to Nigeria they’ll rather do that than you coming to claim asylum. Too broke to return ke’ !

They keep warning you, but you shoot them down.

They've tasted both.

Have you?

I live in Europe presently,I went there as an adult.

So,I can compare and contrast,

There's no economic condition that is as worse as Nigeria is presently, everything is in disarray.

You are absolutely correct,these are sponsored post.

Anyone that has the means and opportunity to Japa should do so now,things are going to get worse than it is now

In this same UK?
Don't let anyone deceive you.
The worst is, you take on a care job with a certificate in "Level 3 Healthcare course/training" online, find 2 good references and you're good to go. Which can pay a minimum of £1,400 a month after Tax/NI.

The problem with most Nigerians here is, they like to oppress their neighbours, show off and impress people at home. At the end, they have nothing to show.

Most important: Make sure your japa is "legal"

I have someone in Canada, and he's complaining the same thing.
Everybody thinks it's greener somewhere else.

To be among the rich will always be hard anywhere, even if you are in heaven.

Nigerians from other cities definitely came there, that's one of the ways to feel at home once in a while.

Doesn’t change the fact that we have over 400k Nigerians living in the UK
