So even partners in top firms domicile their families abroad?

Interesting to know.

the daughter of our top oga alongside his grandchild came to visit the office years ago. Na gona gona wana dem dey talk o. Almost all the kids of top company management in Nigeria have dual citizenship. But they don’t want common man to japa.

2. People approaching 50 and above. I was insulted some time ago whenI stated that if you must Japa abroad, you should do it when you are young. While there are quite a few over 40s who have been able to re-establish themselves, there many more who have struggled to get back on their feet. The job market is a young person's market.

OP, Those approaching 50 should still japa. Especially if they are struggling in Nigeria and they have the chance to japa.

Even though their chance of getting getting job is smaller than young people abroad, it's still higher than if they are in Nigeria. They have better chances of living better healthier and retiring well abroad than in Nigeria where their chances are much much smaller.

Offpoint1:
You don see any big man wey wan japa? na we the poor masses wan JAPA. Richmen na vacation dem dey go, highest 1 month, I know some wey no fit spend 2 weeks outside Nigeria.

Japa is for broke or average people.


Nothing go make me wan japa leave my papa land, land of many wereys, land of cruise, land of fun, land of better food, land of women with big bakasi. Land wey if your maggi finish you fit knock neigbor door borrow, land wey I fit comot my prick piss beside person car , land of freedom.

Naija na dey best country for this world, Nigerians no get wahala and dem dey look out for each other.

NAIJA FOR LIFE

Lol

That man with fat cheeks?

The deal seems to be the best o. Get citizenship, stay in Nigeria, and domicile one's offspring abroad.

But they don’t want common man to japa.

Na why dem dey create threads upon threads. I even thought it should be we wey don comot suppose dey create these threads.

ednut1:
i go become canadian citizen next week. If i see contract collect from 9ja government i go come back na come chop my own😀

Remember our agreement, you run from your province to New Jersey?

Correct

Remove senior chartered account. KPMG, PWC, EY,BDO, and the other audit firms are filled with Nigerian accountants who were hired directly from Nigeria. People wey dey collect 400 to 600k monthly in Nigerian audit firms enter Uk to collect 46k to 65k pounds per year. Which starting all over be that

You are earning well but you dont have peace of mind, your company or business is suffering from trial and error govt policies, health care is shitty. Why do you think they wont japa

Just knowing about BDO. Tell me more about them.

Someone making N700k a month in
Nigeria is better of than a person making
£3000k (N4m equivalent)/ month in UK.

Out of this £3k, an average house may
cost £800 (N1m/ month).

Transportation £300 (N500k).

So, wetin come remain after tax, utilities,
feeding, car maintenance, school fees etc❓


You make the money their and the system
collects it back immediately.


This is why, in order to survive there, you
must turn yourself into jaki ( donkey), holding
different jobs at the same time. To
save na wahala.

Only in London will you spend that amount on accommodation and that's if you are single. £300 for transportation? Is the person flying to moon from London? Bro! I just top a month bus pass yesterday that can take me anywhere, anytime, within London for £80...Back in Abuja, I spend close to 40k on transport on a salary of 200k..
You guys don't leave here but exaggerate so much

You are wasting your time making a point or two to lazy Nigerianist going through shege in that country, managing 5mb midnight sub to surf Nairaland.

These same set of people are so mentally and physically lazy and won’t contribute anything to society but are the first to use Android phones made by the whites.

All they do is f u c k and bring children they can’t take care of and the whole cycle repeats.

“He say you can knock your neighbor’s door to beg for maggi” imagine the thought of a Nigerian man in 2023? Imagine?

I put it to you that these same people are always disturbing people abroad for money. Always begging and complaining about how things are rough in Naija

The guy Offpoint1 even said poor people are the ones traveling. That made me laugh considering the bulk load of money you need to leave Naija. Lmao.

I'm not responsible for whatever you're going through sir, I can only recommend you see a therapist... If you're used to begging people money don't conclude everyone's like you.

Name one visible innovation you've contributed for the betterment of humanity, I'm patiently waiting so I can make my research to confirm whatever you'll claimed.

You have misinterpreted my post. The majority of people in those categories in my post are part of the 1% of this country. JAPA doesn't make sense for them.They have a lot to lose in terms of assets, properties, businesses if they emigrate without a plan. If you are part of the middle class and working class, you should emigrate by all means necessary. The middle class and working class are NOT losers. Those doctors, pharmacists, bankers nurses, IT specialists and lawyers leaving the country in drones are NOT losers. In fact, they are the engine of this country but the economy and the economic policies of the last two administrations have not been favorable to this class of people. Nigeria in the long haul is the loser because these aforementioned class of people are what the country needs to thrive.

Alusiizizi:


So in summary, all the successful Nigerians should stay in Nigeria and losers/never-do-wells should japa? This actually sounds like a good idea to me, as this way, we can get rid of the surplus of idi0ts that this shithole has.

Pack am for house if you no wan ma piss on your tyre

I suppose that I should have been more qualitative in my response to your post. Certainly, I don't include most of the professional class in my category of losers(also I think you should remove IT specialists from your list because a lot of them now do remote work/freelance, earning $$ and it's hard for me to understand how japa would make their condition better), but then again, what is the percentage of Nigerians that would fit into your list of professionals, who are not losers and for whom "japa" would be advisable? Basically, not enough to vitiate the main point of my response to your initial post

One more thing, that your 1% estimate of the "over-well-to-do" class is a grossly ridiculous over-estimate. I would start with something like 0.01% and work my way down to arrive at a more accurate figure. It is only when we start including the professional class, middle class that we arrive at something close to or a bit above 1%, the simple fact of the matter is that the overwhelming majority of Nigerians live in compound poverty. To see this(at least for the professional class) is easy. Take the number of students who do well enough in JAMB at secondary school to not only get admitted into a university but also a meaningful course(like Sciences, Engineering, Accounting e.t.c), that figure is actually in the public domain, and it usually doesn't move higher than 5%, now of that 5% take the proportion of students who actually finished their coursework without having to drop out, due to a variety of reasons like lack of money or such unfortunate circumstances -no fault of theirs- or other reasons like stvpidity, drug use, hookups and such -for which the blame can be placed squarely on their shoulders- then we drop another 30% or so from that 5%, giving 3.5%, now of that 3.5%, take the proportion of students that achieved credentials worthy of talking about in a public setting(these are the ones that are most likely to get those very limited jobs) and I suppose, to the result, add a small number to account for those bubble-heads who will make it anyways because "My papa be one kin big politician like that" and such and we arrive at a figure not to far off from 1%.

Rude much. Tell me more about them from your own experience.

You are so on point. As long as you are earning very well here in Nigeria, there is no need relocating abroad. At best, you could go for vacations and come back.

Excactly!
