Moving Back to Nigeria After a Year in the UK: Our Shocking Decision / Is it worth it? 

Thank You very much Bola for this very insightful video, I, just like you, relocated to the Uk some years ago, what you have said is not a lie but i can still say some things you said are not entirely right.(i can simply say, they are your opinion), so when we are educating people especially nigerians we should say it as it is, not say things to look like this place is not helping people, IT IS ..compared to what Nigeria leaders are dishing out to its citizens right now, THE UK IS ALOT MORE BETTER THAN THE NIGERIA YOU ARE TELLING US YOU WANT TO MOVE BACK TO...your caption said you are moving back but in your video u said you are not, so can you see how u have started passing out info incorrectly...if u want to get a job that same week in the uk yes u can, is just that nigerians are so proud and wouldnt want to do a care job when they get into the uk as that is the most available thing you can start your life with here or a factory job(which to me is ALOT more stressful), i have since finished my school and i have a job as a KYC analyst with one of the first five audit firms in the world, so what may not work for u can work for many others, so i think u should have started by saying, THESE ARE MY OPINION and dont let it look like is everyone here that are suffering, the people who are suffering here choose that part for them selves because of their PRIDE and nothing else, i attend a church where they have 98% Nigerians, EVERYTHING I GOT IN THIS UK, I GOT IT THROUGH THE NIGERIANS WHO ATTEND THAT SAME CHURCH, so lets not come here and start misleading people, Nigerians here are very very nice, even in my place of work, all around the uk, we have a teams network where we pass out info that will help us and our work, the first house i lived with my family was a shared apartment, now for those who know, i am not supposed to bring my entirely family into a shared apartment as that is wrong, my wife was even pregnant with another child when we came but still the landlord allowed us to stay and EVEN REDUCED OUR RENT, ladies and gentle men, the landlord is an IBO MAN from Abia state, this same landlord stood as shorty for me when i wanted to move into my own apartment FOUR MONTHS LATER along side my pastor, who is FROM KWARA STATE(another nigerian), i got a care work very fast as i needed to start something to start bringing some money to support my family and an EDO MAN(another Nigerian) got me my first job and it was that job i used in sustaining myself and family until i finished school and things changed for me for the better, so many nigerians here(including my humble self) have referred so many Nigerians in this my office, it was another EDO MAN(who through his referral) i even got this present place where i am working as a analyst..the UK is very good, if u KNOW what u are doing, i am even a man with a family and i can still say its good, why? because I knew exactly what to do, my people, when u get in here, do not stay on your own like many nigerians do (and then when nothing is working for them they come to youtube and facebook and whatever platform to start misleading their fellow Nigerians). associate yourself with churches around, especially churches with many nigerians(which is not hard to see in the UK) deeper life dey, RCCG dey, mountain of fire dey, Christ embassy dey..etc there are great nigerians in all these churches who are willing to help but most nigerians wouldnt want to go there and then come here and start saying the UK is very hard, sister if the uk hard, why u never dey nigeria by now?lets stop deceiving ourselves abeg,, u talked about tax, are u not supposed to pay tax?are u supposed to live in their country for free? the reason why nigeria dont bug u with tax is because they know they dont use it on any infrastructure, do u enjoy 24hrs light in nigeria, do u put on your gas cooker and gas comes out? do u have a borehole in your house in UK? is it not companies who provide these amenities for u? so are u not supposed to pay for them?so when people say the bills are too much i just wonder..these things you are ENJOYING HERE, do u see them in the nigeria u were living before? the UK dont have any solid mineral to tap from unlike your beloveth country Nigeria, so the taxing is the only way they can make their economy work, and is not as if they are taxing u and u are not seeing what they are taxing u for, u are seeing it so why the complain? are ur children paying school fees?is it not free,can u compare the govt school they attend with even some top private school in nigeria?yet they are all free and even feeding your children free of charge everyday...u dont tell people this one o, it is the same govt that provide all these things o, children age 0- 5 dont pay bus fare o, even train fare o. they dont pay for their medicine o, u do not tell them this one o... then u come here and start saying, "THE UK IS TOO HARD" the one wey your country dey tax u for(the VAT) are u seeing any benefit from it? are u not the one responsible for stable power and water and even gas in your house in Nigeria? so what are u saying? please let us always start our video by saying, "THESE ARE MY OPINION, I MAY BE WRONG"..I live in this same Uk like u(Precisely Liverpool) and somethings u are saying here are not correct.. let everyone make up their mind on what they want to do, if na flexing, better one dey here, clubs dey here...there is racism here no doubt, but is there a place in this world where racism no dey?even our nigeria kpa kpa wey we dey cry racism, can any oyinbo man(wey naturalize for nigeria) say him wan run for governorship or presidency win an election? even party primary sef? because we no go gree, abi no be so??yet we say we no get racism for our body, hausa man hate ibo man, yoruba man hate ibo man and even likewise, itsekiri hate ijaw man and even likewise, yet we say we no be racist(dey play)...honestly guys look up wherever youwanna go and if you are okay with it make proper arrangement for it and GO, no let anybody put anything for ur mind, i no know anybody for liverpool when i came here with my pregnant wife and my son, now i have spent almost 3 years here and i am doing very well for myself(God be praised)..so no matter how much research u do on anyplace u may still not get it right, so do all u can and PRAY FOR THE BETTER for you and your family, then go..it is well with u all.

I am a British. Now in Nigeria prospering. In the Uk its still based on colour. In Nigeria based on working hard, diligence and HONESTY. So many people from other countries I have met in Nigeria are making it big, its about mindset, thinking positively wherever God places you. In the Uk I didn't have any to show after thirty something years of focus. Much money spent on education. Investing in failed businesses. I went to Nigeria to invest and have been blessed with 4 and more businesses. I would advise people to stay in Africa, whichever part they are from, trust God, be confident and DO NOT RELY ON GOVERNMENT. Africa is so rich, raw material in abundance! A lot of people are entice by material fakes, instead of wanting to get their hands dirty (humble beginnings) so to 21:20 speak, from day 1 rather than day 1000th...if it's not click baits please put a question sign (?)

Very insightful video! True, Indians are like our Hausa people, they assist one another and hook themselves up!

Nigerian, I understand the pain It is just so annoying how you come to the Uk and Nigerian will be behaving anyhow. They will not even share any information even seeing them on the street, they pretend like we are not from the same country. It is so annoying. But the Indian, I love them so much, they carry themselves together.

I am UK citizen considering relocating to Nigeria. tell me about network marketing you were doing before coming

all you say is true .the uk is not glamour for some ,the western is work work so you can live ,yes things work like water,lights but the cost of living sucks and you get tired easier ....and families back in nija have no idea how hard and all the prices of living suck sucks time and money so you cant send home much and times nothing home for some ..enjoyed your insight thx

Thank you Bola… for those of us still contemplating relocation ❤❤

Nice one bola, you really poured out your heart, Japa plans now calls for serious considerations.

Nice video Bola. The disunity among us is something else.

Thank you, you will even greet some of them they will not even answer

My dear well said, we need to see Ooo I dey look for friends 😂😂😂

@02:32/@0:34. You broke the shaking table. You can't compare how the Asians are united compared to Africans, especially Nigerians. I am always guided to say hello to Nigerians in public to avoid public insults. Some will even form British ascent once they notice you around them No wonder there is individual progress compared to united progress. Bola if you want to break the table. Shake and break am patapata. Weldone girl. Weldone. Cheers.

Those saying disunity among Nigerians this is where you know those Religious houses like churches mosque you go to you are really learning nothing. Love is not preached and practise enough. The indian learn this love they have for each other from thier tempo they go to.

They are now waking up to reality.

At the end of the day , no matter how pathetic and unbearable the situation is there you’re still better off there. It’s a shame that you find comfort in another country with all the problems you described just because of the current status of things in Nigeria. God help us.

Absolutely true❤❤

Perfectly well said. Thanks for the advice ❤️❣️

Planning to move and your video has bn insightful. As a business person and entrepreneur lady. I just feel I need to move to a country who will make me accountable and I believe there will be changes. Your video is really nice. Keep it up and you earn a subscriber 😂😂 I am your friend bola 🥰🥰

There are actually lots of people that got a Job within a week or 2 sha. But isn’t getting a Job within only 1 month in a country you have never been to before actually quick? How long does it take an average Nigerian to get a Job in Nigeria that can at least pay all Bills. 1 Month is actually very fast sha.

Indian and Pakistani ehnnn they glue together

good videos

Well said

Well said sis 👍🏼

Nicely said

I’ve been telling people back home.

God bless you Bola!!! Very relatable

Everything was said so perfectly. You said my thoughts word for word. It’s the same thing here in Germany. At the end of the day, you have to weight your cons and pros and do whats best for you. Thank you for the video.

Once u have 9ja blood in u,I swear u don get extra problem,only if u can pray it out

I agree

What link did you make use of? To pay house rent

3.28 minutes

Naija my country 😅😅😅

@bola abeg which site u see house rent

Zimbabweans😅 sounds funny

You have to pay taxes that what make there country the more you work you pay more taxes, i live in Canada we pay higher taxes than n Than UK. And you don't have documents to work so it gives more stressful. Our taxes in Nigeria not strong like Western countries. Dear if make like 4000dollars bi weekly by the time i get my paycheck if you see the taxes they will take out is 2000 have go to taxes. If you taxes yearly you cannot get it back maybe your return will be like 500dollars and sometimes you have to Govt back or no any return back. Ronke your documents and working permit had impact with it.

All true even if tho I’m not in the UK family lives there 😊 and one of ‘em is even at my house at the moment he just arrived 😅

Money made in the UK stayed in the UK that’s what people just don’t know 😅

All true 🥺🥺❤

Especially we Yoruba’s
