UK avg salary after tax: £2,650/month Nigeria avg salary after tax: <£101/month Life expectancy: UK 81 yrs, Nigeria 54 yrs Purchasing power: UK 12x higher If poverty is punishment, Nigeria is the gallows. Don’t romanticize struggle.- Just like the UK took Nigerian doctors, Canada is now taking UK qualified doctors. The highest bidder wins. That’s the game.
- This school every year just keeps getting better. The principal is a Nigerian. Dr Dayo Olukoshi, OBE 👏👏👏Very well done to Muyiwa who achieve A*A*A* and who will study Law at UCL. Brilliant work Muyiwa.
- 🇬🇧 24 Tips for Immigrants in the UK. 1. Own your story. Your accent, your name, your heritage are not liabilities. They’re legacy. 2. Don’t shrink to fit, Assimilation isn’t the goal. Integration with dignity is.Today marks 24 years. Grateful.
- Got balloons today. Grateful celebrating another year. 🎈🎁😍🎂🎉 35 years of God’s goodness.
- Replying to @RayosweetsI dont have much to say but Dubai is very different to the other countries. People going there should know the way things are there. Adults should educate their children. Race also might have played a part.
- Never thought this would happen in 2025. My dad has passed away. 💔 He had wanted to go to Nigeria since last year. He went with my mom on Sunday and passed away on Thursday. 💔
- Going abroad doesn’t guarantee greatness. You can be in the UK for 10,20,30 years and still be a scammer.Start a problematic discourse??
- Being an immigrant in the UK often means picking careers like social work, teaching, nursing or care not because it’s your passion, but because it sponsors your visa. Survival first. Hope it gets easier, especially for those dealing with unsupportive employers.
- Replying to @FunminzBaba was very judgemental like he didn't fit what he was expecting to see.
