Poverty is one of the biting factors driving people to extremity in today's world. Citizens of underdeveloped Nations would stop at nothing to make sure they escape the deadly claws of living hand-to-mouth virus. Because of extreme economic conditions like this, people are always on the search for El Dorado'; a land that flows with milk and honey. A land of fabulous wealth. In the daring adventure of reaching Europe by road and sea, instead of the more expensive and safer air flights, many have met their death. The search for greener pastures has opened widely the door of early departures from life. Economic migration is a phenomenon that has dampen the development of many third world countries, including Nigeria, as it's citizens top the list of stranded immigrants in the Sahara.

Economic migration is the moving from one region to another, including crossing international borders, to seek for an improved standard of living, because the conditions or job opportunities in the migrant's own region are insufficient. Economic migrants leave their regions primarily due to harsh economic conditions, rather than other factors responsible for migration like studies, political opinion or prosecution.

The massive influx of young skilled Nigerians into countries like Canada, United States, Italy, and the United Kingdom are on the rise by the day. But the big question is, since all our able bodied men are all running away from the dried and withered grass of Nigeria, who will water and make our grasslands greener ?

According to a 2016 census, there are about sixty nine thousand Nigerians living in Canada. While in the United Kingdom, estimates by the Office for National Statistics put the figure at 196,000 in 2016. A Council of Europe report gives a figure of 100,000 Nigerians in the UK but suggests that this is likely to be an underestimate since it does not include irregular migrants or children born outside of Nigeria.

As Nigeria continue to witness it's citizens leaving the country, whether legally or illegally, one is forced to ask; why are they all leaving ? The Doctors, Teachers, Engineers, Youths and a host of others. So many factors are responsible for migration of skilled Nigerians to foreign countries. Generally, all these factors can be categorized under the "push and pull factors".
The push factors are the conditions pushing migrants to leave their home country. Some of the factors influencing migration of Nigerians include, rising unemployment, poverty, lack of economic opportunities, dearth of basic socio-economic infrastructures, and insecurity. While the pull factors are the factors pulling the migrant to a particular country. For example; high wages, work conditions, security, e.t.c

In the wake of 2016, the slump in global oil prices hit Nigeria hard and the country fell into the pit of recession. The naira lost its value as oil price fell from $112 per barrel to $50. This case was worsen due to the fact that the government depends on oil sales for about 70% of it's revenue.The economic recession had serious negative impacts on government revenue, employment, income vulnerability, inflation, human health, infrastructural supply, poverty and natural resource management in Nigeria.
According to research carried out by the Manufacturers Association of Nigeria (MAN), they explained that about 196 manufacturing companies shut down their operations due to the biting recession. This situation led to an increase in the level of unemployment, prompting workers to seek for jobs elsewhere__ in foreign countries !
Also worthy to be mentioned is the dilapidated state of Nigeria's educational system forcing the "Almighty Professionals" to leave the borders of the country. Decades of under-funding have impacted the quality of teachers and lecturers as well as the learning infrastructure in Nigeria’s educational system. Dramatically, this has led to Incessant Strikes by Nigerian university lecturers protesting low wages and inadequate benefits are now an almost annual occurrence. The lack of investment in public educational institutions has also fueled a rise in expensive private schools and universities for middle and high-income families seeking higher standards. But even those schools pale in comparison with quality of job packages obtainable outside Nigeria for teachers. The health sector is also not left out of all this, as the rate of doctors leaving over the years is alarming.

Econonic migration can both be caused by a richer nation doings and the undoings of the poorer nation. In 2015, Canada implemented a new system for taking in skilled immigrants, using a points-based calculation in which applicants are scored on the basis of their age, work experience, education level, and language skills. It aims to prioritize those who are most skilled and ease their entry into the country. Ever since, the sparsely populated North American country has long been a favored destination of skilled Nigerians because it offers better economic opportunities for teachers, engineers, doctors, e.t.c. To the skilled migrants they are moving to their 'El Dorado', where their efforts is crowned with better pay package and welfare.
The phenomenon of Economic migration is a double edged sword, it has both advantages and disadvantages to the migrant's home country and the host country. To the migrant's home country, it's citizens migrating can lead to what is known as the 'Brain drain effect'. Brain drain effect is the emigration of highly trained or qualified people from a particular country to another. What the Brain drain effect does is that it reduces the size of the country's potential workforce as people of working age or professionals move out of the country, not bathing an eyelid.

On the other hand, one of the major advantage of economic migration is that it boost the economy of the home country. This is due to the fact that money sent home by migrants to their relatives is used to start up one business or the other. According to World Bank, they estimated that remittances generated in the United States in 2009 totalled 420 billion dollars. Out of this huge sum, 317 billion dollars went to developing countries. Also, people migrating out of the country decreases pressure on jobs and resources of the home country. Most importantly, migrants may return with new skill and help build the economy.
The host country receiving the emigrants are not left out in the slayings of the double edged sword of economic migration. While influx of migrants in the country helps to reduce labour shortages, it could also lead to overpopulation. More often than not, it has been discovered that conflicts arises due to the presence of diverse cultural and religious group. For example, the 2019 Xenophobic attacks against Nigerians in South Africa started when the natives felt like 'Nigerians are taking over their economy, with little or no businesses for them the south africans__ the real owners of the country'.
Nigeria, which is described as Africa’s largest economy is no stranger to the departure of its best talents. In the 1970s and ’80s, skilled and semi-skilled Nigerians left the country, mostly for the United States, Britain, and elsewhere in Europe, fleeing the rule of successive military juntas and economic mismanagement. A 2010 report by the Migration Policy Institute, a Washington, D.C.–based think tank, found that by the late 1970s, about 30,000 Nigerian professionals had graduated from universities and colleges in the United Kingdom but never returned to Africa; by the mid-’80s, 10,000 Nigerians were in the United States, many of them highly skilled. That brain drain had a rotating effect, opening a route for these immigrants’ relatives to leave Nigeria as well.
In a world where migration has become a phenomenon of our time and is due to increase, the government of Nigeria biggest concern is how to save the lives of migrants taking dangerous routes – by sea and land – to flee the long arms of poverty. Many have died in the Mediterranean and Sahara. Others fell to the bullets of bandits and many still stranded in Libya in their quest to reach Europe. This phenomenon is not seeing it's end soon unless we put in certain measures to develope our own country.
One of these measures is that the Nigerian Government Should Increase her expenditure on Skills. This is one point that most African countries had always neglected. It is only skills that lead to production. People are looking for problem solver. So government should invest in skills acquisition in IT, telecommunication, agro allied, sports among others. The training should be 80% free practical. There is need for multiple competence, particularly among youths as a measure to curb increase global joblessness. This way, Nigeria will soon see herself on top of the fastest growing economy in Africa.
In the 1960s, agriculture was the main base of Nigeria, in terms of GDP, foreign exchange earnings, and employment. Today, Nigeria spends about 10 billion US dollars a year on the importation of agricultural products. Nigerian government led by President Muhammadu Buhari, should stop talking and start working. Enough of talk, people want to see actions. The youths as earlier stated, should be encouraged to go into farming. They should be trained free on various agricultural sector. It is time to revisit our past glories and ignite it once again. It is time to revive Nigeria's agricultural industry.
Most importantly, the wages and welfares of professionals like Doctors, Teachers, Engineers and many others should be put into consideration. Efforts should be made to pay their salaries as at when due not owing them series of unpaid monthly salaries. For example, the 'Unpaid Salaries' case of Kogi State Government workers in 2018/2019 caused many Doctors and teachers to resign their jobs and seek for better ones outside the country.
Lastly, the government should embark on a Nationwide orientation programme to sensitize the youths on the need to help build the country's economy, not flee from it. As the grass is greener when you water it, so our economy will be better if we help develop it.
This is the Nigerian Dream, to build a nation where we can proudly call home. A nation where every individual will find their pot of gold in it's fertile and very green pastures. The success of this great nation is our collective responsibility, let's join hands together and bring to fulfillment the Nigerian dream.

The success of this great nation is our collective responsibility, let's join hands together and bring to fulfillment the Nigerian dream.

Some Nigerians came back abroad during obj yar adua era. Where did their sacrifice and effort lead most of them No where. In 2023 Tinubu, El Rufai, Kalu, Atiku will contest for presidency and one would win. These are still the same guys who have destroyed Nigeria. The losers will wait till 2031 and continue. Smaller parties with good candidates wont be able to even get 30,000 votes. So Mr student wake up and stop deceiving yourself. Take a look a your state kogi, nothing to show but Dino and Yaya Bello have cars and mansion. NIGERIA IS DOOMED AND BEYOND REDEMPTION

Yeah tell that to elon musk

Do you think anybody would know elon musk if he had stayed in southafrica?

I would have appreciated this your "epistle to the Babylonians" it read, "how to make NIgeria better".

The very fact that NO black country has attained prominence in the world, is a STRONG indicator that NIgeria may romance third world status forever. It's one thing to have faith, it's another kettle of Moimoi for your faith to depend on somebody or group of people having no sense.

In case you don't know, South Africa, as poor as she might be, has per capita GDP of $6,800. For the "tortoise of Africa" to meet that, she needs $1.4t economy (holding population at 207m. Present figure). You and I know that this would probably take "Tortoise of Africa" the next 50 years to achieve (using historic record of per capita GDP to forecast it). Between 2006 to 2020, NIgeria added 67m to her population. Tell me which sensible country "rear children" without commensurate increase in standard of living? Almost all indices are lagging behind while people littered the space with offsprings.


Now, developed economies have an average PCGDP of $12,000. Even this is still a drop in the ocean. Sound PCGDP starts from $30,000. For NIgeria to have PCGDP of $40,000, she needs $20tr economy. We all know it took USA over 200 years to achieve this. And they don't have population problem like we do. And who knows where he developed economies would be by then. NIgeria can achieve this by 2065 at population of 500m. But this is in theory. In reality, this is almost impossible. This means NIgeria needs to be adding $465b to her economy every year till the next 40+ years.

If I want to truly reply this, I could write a book on it. Just forget it. NIgeria is a sorry case. Ordinary to get a job politicians will share it. Put ghost workers in the system. Yet you are there saying what you know.

Honestly I used to have this thought process and it's a very dangerous one to have. You might romance this thought that Nigeria would get better and spent the most of your youth wasting away and one day you would discover that you are 35 years broke and useless while your mates in advanced nations have achieved a lot. It's the same thought process many of our parents had and most of them regret staying back. You think if they had a vision of the shithole Nigeria would be today they wouldn't escape. We were growing 10 percent annually and now we are the world's poverty capital. As if that isn't enough the government wants to make Nigeria the world's hunger capital.


If you are young and you have the opportunity to leave Nigeria for a better life please do not hesitate. You owe Nigeria nothing. We all came into this mess and it's not our responsibility to fix it up.

One of my lecturers used to tell us about how he had the opportunity to go live and work outside this country but chose to rather stay when Nigeria was just created. Most stayed back to help develop the new nation but he always conclude by saying now he knows that decision was a mistake. I have heard such story over and over again. Nigeria does not deserve you, if you know your value.

While GDP per capita is a good way to judge economic growth, I'm more concerned and interested in GDP growth and the size of the economy rather than the per capita income of her citizens. China has a low GDP per capita but has a higher GDP growth than say Japan. Chinese today constitute the majority of tourists visiting Japan because they (Chinese) have gotten richer even though statistically Japanese are richer than the Chinese. Same thing with India, Vietnam, Indonesia etc. These countries have low GDP per capita but have grown economically over the years even though their population remain relatively high.

In summary, Nigeria requires a consistent GDP growth rate of 10% over the next ten years at least. This will reduce birth rates, jobs will be created ditto wealth. By then, we can discuss GDP per capita. Besides, GDP per capita isn't a good way to judge development because last I checked Gabon and Equatorial Guinea have high GDP per capita but the vast majority of their citizens are amongst the poorest in the world. The human development index is a more appropriate method to gauge a developed society.

If you read it kindly summarize it to me thanks

Economic size does not have impact on the lives of citizen. China has $10,000 PCGDP. That's sufficient. No country with low PCGDP can do well. India is not a country of emulation at the moment. I don't want to go into details. But if there is need for it, I will show you that PCGDP is more important than Economic size.

What we have here is a mismanagement problem, who tell u said money no dey Naija? If the govt can put in place better policies for the masses and provide basic amenities such as good roads, effective power, better patronage of indigenous manufacturers in all sectors, improve our health sector and education and the likes the citizens will find their way to get out of poverty, all we need is a conducive environment to thrive, this is no rocket science at all, not the income generation policies by the govt and nothing to show for in the lives of its citizens, e no make sense na, we all know corruption is everywhere in the world but at least if they must make them at least do something way people go clap for them join, the government keep mismanaging funds anyhow where kwa.

Merely theoretical, in practice "leaving Nigeria for a developed country is probably one of the best decision one would ever take". Sure no country is perfect, but Nigeria is just one of the most underperforming countries in the world - I mean every sector of its economy is on its knees , and considering its God-given blessings like massive youth population, natural resources this is completely unacceptable.

I strongly urge any young person out there who has the means to emigrate and never look back. You'll thank yourself you did in future.

If economic growth doesn't have an impact on people's lives, how come China was able to lift lots of people out of poverty as the size of the economy grew? Are you saying India hasn't lifted people out of poverty? Vietnam? Indonesia? If we're to judge development via PCGDP, why are citizens of Equatorial Guinea amongst the poorest not richest in Africa with a PCGDP of $10K?
