This brings me to the fact that some my like while many hate on you but no one can judge except God so why criticize? My views about issues doesn't make me any better than those with other views, am also putting a check on myself through this medium so don't get it twisted, am as guilty as you are.....
I came across a video online of a Nigerian based in canada lamenting about her people back here disturbing her with calls that she should come invest in Nigeria, Lol...... well to me she was making sense until she goofed that she doesn't intend to come back to Nigeria!!!
.... hmmm Nigerians abroad "ajo Ole da bi Ile" meaning life outside your home can never be compared to the comfort of your home, "Ile la bo Simi oko" meaning after a long days work we will always come back home to rest.
This lady in question is not the only Nigerian who thinks that way but I will use this medium to say that you people are getting it wrong, firstly you have lost your values and self esteem to make another land your home without the thought of looking back, if our fore father's did same will there be a Nigeria today? how can you say you have decided not to come back to your motherland, i cant understand..... When you leave your country to go and start washing toilets, been live in maids, and doing all sort of odd jobs you wouldnt do back home in another man's land and you think that's life because you are abroad you are a disgrace.
They refrain the names to make you feel cool, a live in maid is the same as a house maid and it's more of our old ones you see doing this jobs, what legacy do you want to leave behind "Because of foreign currency you don begin forget your pride because of government money o you don dey make shame catch you" ........ in FK's voice

....and if that lady is been scrutinized well we will find out that she's slaving her life out in canada to survive and it's getting her fustrated because in that video she really raked hell, I know some relatives can be frustrating too not caring what you going through, they have a shallow belief about Nigerians abroad like money is been picked on the streets overseas but my darling Nigerians abroad don't let that change your perspective on coming back home, if you not for anything think of the legacy you will be leaving for the younger generation especially those who don't have the opportunity to leave the shores of Nigeria.
Nigeria is for us all, don't let's spoil it, it will definitely be a better place I believe if we agree to work hand in hand to make it happen, corruption is everywhere and even higher in those countries we run to but they get to cover there tracts well, you will never see an American who will praise another country over his, even other 3rd world countries wont so why then are we selling ourselves out, a foolish man is the one who will say God bless another man's land forgetting to pray for his.
Even if you have dual citizenship your root is still your root no one can take that away from you. Stupidity is investing in another man's land and forgetting yours; many of our Nigerian leaders are guilty of this fact, my prayer is may their children be wiser than them.
When we travel out of Nigeria we see different tourist centre's have we ever thought for 1 second how there ancient buildings of centuries are been maintained and we have buildings not up to a decade collapsing, Why they have constant power supply and we can't have light, why there roads are well structured, constant water supply, why there government invest on there kids and so on, these are basic amenities that should bother us if we love our country....... even if you have never travelled anywhere don't you watch the TV or go on the Internet to check for celebrity gossips....... while doing that let's think of a better Nigeria; Individually ask yourselves what are your plans for Nigeria not just your family or how to make money off your fellow citizens in that way we will be conquering greed which is the major killer in our society today or really why would we want to keep acquiring wealth when we still have to die with nothing (height of foolishness) and the worst of it all is no one knows the time or type of death so come to think of it, the only legacy we can leave behind is what we did for the society and may God help us as we think in this direction AMEN
