He said that they were first given a deposit of c$ 2000 (N547,080.02) before they were on Monday, April 19, given another c$290 (N79,326.60). @ChuksJaphets berated the Nigerian government for asking them to come back home and telling them that they would be paying for their flight cost. Few days ago, we received a deposit of $2,000 from d Govt of Can Flag of Canada , today we got another cheque of $290 as support. Meanwhile, all Nigerian Govt could say was come back home and I will bear d flight cost. Home ain’t where u were born.

Nice one. Just stay safe and away from any potential mass shooting site. Our people say beauty no dey complete. Their Government dey people-oriented, but you fit just say make you stroll go supermarket to buy some grocery the next thing one kolo oyibo wey half done and medium-rare meat don chop part of him brain go just enter there begin shoot everybody for no just cause. In fact ehn, e no get anywhere wey e be 10/10. Las las na only God perfect. With this lockdown I just wished I was in my village aswear. Easy jeje life...wetin concern you concern coro I was shocked to notice there were no mosquitoes in my village the last time I visited. I slept with the netless windows open. Modified: I pity the people flooding my mention as a result of my comment above. If the import of my submission is lost on you and you deem it fit to vent your anger at life through this, well, your case is irredeemable obviously both home and away. There is absolutely no need hiding under any cloak to start self-insulting. Na pikin wey no get sense go stand on top mountain or hill begin point hand say, "see my mama for there, she dey useless, she no get sense". My admonition and prayers to our loved ones the world over remains, to keep safe, and may God continually hide us under the shadow of his wings now and beyond. 613 Likes 43 Shares |

$2600 is not a lot of money if you live in Canada.How long will it take you to spend that . If you will no longer return to Nigeria because of that amount, I sympathize with your situation. 129 Likes 13 Shares |

Hmm Canada's budget this year is $355 billion for 24 million people. Nigeria's budget this year is $26 billion for 200 million people. And you expect Nigeria to give palliative of N626000 naira per person or per family? Nigeria is a mess, but we are not up to Canada's level. Vote for governments who would make us an industrial nation, then we can talk. To all those people cursing Nigeria up-thread...yes, we have had corrupt governments. But there is no way our government can afford to give stimulus of N626,000 naira to everyone. Not on our budget,without taking even more mega loans. Modified Even giving 100million Nigerians N50000 each a month would involve spending the equivalent of our budget for the year in one month.($26 Billion) 132 Likes 13 Shares |
