Japa people wey dey complain about Nigeria are just lazy, change my mind

See my brother, I don travel go Cotonou, I don do Benin Republic, I don see how our neighbours dey hustle. And I still come back to Aba every time. Why? Because Naija na the only place where a boy like me wey drop out of polytechnic fit wake up, buy tokunbo phone for ₦80,000, sell am for ₦120,000 same day, and still chop life. No visa needed. No language barrier. Naija market is the most forgiving market in Africa.

All these people wey dey cry say 'I want to japa because Nigeria hard' , my brother, Nigeria hard for everybody. But the difference na the person wey dey find solution and the person wey dey find excuse. I get friend wey japa go Canada, he dey work Uber, he dey pay $2,000 rent, he dey send money back to family. Meanwhile me wey stay for Aba, I don buy my second tokunbo car this year and I dey pay my sister's UNN fees from my phone accessories profit.

No be say I hate japa. If you get genuine opportunity, go. But if you dey run from Nigeria because you think life go be easier for abroad, you dey deceive yourself. Everywhere hard. The difference na your hustle level. Naija no dey carry last. If you fit survive here, you fit survive anywhere. Wetin be your own excuse for not making money right now? 💰
