This is the discussion I had with a friend of mine in Nigeria today. She was telling me about a couple that sold all their properties, their stores and moved to the West. I told her no reasonable person in Nigeria doing well financially should move to the West.
Move to the west if you are broke, doing nothing. Do not move if you are doing fine...especially 5, 6 or 7 figures in nigeria. Do not!!
People do this a lot and it is an act of stupidity. How can you do that when you haven't been to the country to see if it is greener or not instead of listening to western media? In my opinion, people should first go on a tour with an open mind to see for themselves because taking the risk. I know a couple who sold all their properties and resigned from their well paid jobs to move to Canada. When they got there, they realised that it was worse but, pride no gree make dem come back to 9ja.
@@james3231 it is now common in Nigeria, they will say that they are doing it for their kids. Children that would even choose their own path when they grew up as an adult. I had met desperate Nigerians that were duped by agents all because of I want to leave Nigeria. I hope our people realise this before it is too late.
@@olayiwolasegun1392 the problem in our is kind of our leaders but, the major ones are: foreign religion, western civilisation, ojukokoro(greed) and ai ni itelorun. Also, the moment we learn to appreciate things, we realise that it's not that hard except you are suffering from poverty which can be solved through checking one's destiny.
@@james3231 you summed up everything.
I dont understand why your videos dont have over 1million views. Black people dont like to hear the truth. You are right, our mindset is the reason why we are not flourishing.
Slavery mentality is what is killing us, you can give him views all that is needed is sharing.
Very true our mindset is a stumbling block to progress , imagine with all our educated people we dont have 24 hr light and water in nigeria , Dubai used their money to build their country Nigeria we squandered our money
@@omobolajieniola276 Dubai is an emirate (a state) in the country called UAE. You made valid points tho 👍🏼
You have summarised the whole concept of how the minds of Black people work. I am very glad you noticed it. For one thing, I don't think Phrakleen is too eager about money affairs, he's very passionate about the plight and condition of our people and to inject undiluted truth with no left over. Solemn "soft powers " easily works around our people the attention of time they give to looking good they don't give personal reflective thinking that type of time or nothing at all. All this reminds me what Thomas Jefferson and Frantz Fanon put in thier writing memoirs on Blacks. Even the recent late Kevin Samuel was seriously worried during his life time. The price is we would be here for a long haul to break through 😢😢😮
People don't like the truth that's why
Thanks Phrankleen. Another interesting discussion. Although I am close to 60, I have still a lot learn from young brothers like yourself. Much appreciated.
✊🏾😁🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🤎🖤
Sir I applaude your openess to learning...
I moved back to Nigeria a month ago, it was the greatest decision i have ever made
Awesome 😎👌🏾🤎🖤 well done bro
Congratulations bro😁
For real? With all the insecurity??
What insecurity?
@@iyaiya9819 dude calm down jo
The man is not suffering, he’s happy
OMG!!!!! This story looks like it's a movie. Our Africans, there is nothing in ABROAD. If we are having a better life back home, let's NORMALISE in accepting our own financial beings. There is nothing bad having a better life at home!!!
This abroad we are banging on coming while living a far better life at home, it's a waste of our lives......
Pity this guy for not being MAN ENOUGH to decline the wife's request in the first place instead of listening to the ELDER BROTHER......
May God make a way for him ooooo
Mr. Phrankleen, I must commend again, the way you tell all these stories, is awesome!!! May God continue to bless you with more WISDOM
Phrakleen is well grounded with undiluted TRUTH, which most of our people needs especially the overall social structures that guide Black societies. The order alternative is late Kevin Samuel saying direct facts to Blackwomen which most of them agreed with him on his life show then. The Black societies is are confronted with host of convulsions, We need to stop the revolving doors 🚪 😮😮😢
I can relate with this. People just don't understand what uk living is all about. The west will humble you, its better to be a King naija than a dog in the west.
I will my story about my 20 year experience in London. It was bitter sweet, if I had known what I know now, I will have come back Tey Tey. I am playing catch up. With all the craziness here in naija, mainly unnecessary in my opinion but it's home for me. I just laugh when people are japaing especially in their 40s or 50s. To do what ? I ask but it's best not to tell anyone let them go and experience it themselves. They can't understand why I am here when ALL MY friend leave abroad. And I mean all. Naija is home for me.
Akin Awojobi u right, but if he doesn’t have the connections in Nigeria it’s back to square one. U know Nigeria is a country of God fatherism, you’ve to know the big goons to get the best job.
Very true but having connection is useful but connections come when you are here. And also what I have learnt as well is that bring value and play the long game with value and a long game las las you will be fine. But most of us just want money and bring no value to the table
Akin, u are absolutely correct
🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 This comment took me out.
The funny truth is that an average immigrant in the UK does not even make close to the annual salary this dude was commanding £48000 in Nigeria.
48k in Nigeria is a hell of a lot
But with reckless inflation scenario in Third World will depleted slowly 😅
@@dadakeshinro6749still his life is beta in Africa
@@dadakeshinro6749 You are not considering that 48000 £ in the UK is even way 20X smaller
The UK is incredibly ageist if you’re not in your mid 20s/early 30s don’t even think about coming abroad. There’s private medical healthcare in Nigeria, you can pay security, solar power etc. life in the west isn’t all flowers and sunshine
They're extremely ageist. Lots of 50+ years old professionals get fired to make way for younger people that they can pay less. You cannot grow old with a company anymore. There is no loyalty
Everything he is saying is the truth I’m a woman , but I spent my whole life taking care of my family, now I have nothing and have a lot of regrets I wish I can turn back the hand of time. Thanks for shedding light on this very important topic
😂😂😂😂😂😂 Romantisizing factory job! Bloody hell🤣🤣🤣 rib cracking man…. Yea babes… I hear you! Is the bloody gate keepers for me!! Disgraceful and pitiful really but let me laugh all thesame cos it is very funny how you say things Phrankleen 😅
Imagine living as a king in Nigeria and a poor man in the UK.
Africans seem to enjoy the riches-to-rag story. Years ago, many could drive a cab and pretend to their families back home that they were living well. Now Uber has made everyone a taxi driver and that money is gone. 😂
@@badjujuwan 😂
That is the reality abroad
Its cause of the wife
Sometimes when you advise family and friends back home not to sale their property to move abroad it will look like you don't want them to succeed in life this a big lesson to others
Dude's got to swallow his pride, buy a ticket and fly back home. With the work experience he has in banking and finance, he'll get another job despite the time gap in his resume.
I agree with you Emmanuel, let him forget the senseless wife. If he comes back, in few years he'll be back on his feet.
The story is quite pathetic
It's not going to be easy knowing our culture and how our people will begin to talk!
He should forget "what will people say" and take the first seat in his own life and drive it to full adulthood.
@@khadhrikhan1549
If you live for what people say you are not living. If you do good they talk if you do bad they they talk so who cares let them talk.
Hey prhankreeb......right here Memphis Tennessee I see some Nigerians.......they ain't coming back home till dy Kingdom come
Phrankleen, you're speaking facts about the inferiority complex. Here in South Africa, there are often videos of white South Africans, doing a dance move or speaking an African language, which viral on social media. These videos literally get hundreds of thousands of views, likes and shares from black folk. They'll even leave comments like "ya neh, this white man can keep his land". Black folks here are heavily Christian so it's no surprise
Wow. The power of entertainment has become the containment for many ignorant people. No spiritual discernment at all. Hmmm.
Unbelievable
Lots of videos of homeless white South Africans too
from experience, I think it's not everyone who are destined to be abroad,some people are not rich in Nigeria but they are happy and fulfilling their purpose in life.its much better than be miserable abroad struggling to pay bills.i used to tell people that at a particular age,one shud not be thinking of coming abroad for greener pastures.when you tell people ,they look at you with hatred.
You speak the truth, you are definitely on point, I was born and raised in the United states but never felt at home, when I visited Africa , I felt at home, I want to come back home, help!!!!!
best time to travel out is in your 20s once your above 35 you have to be more strategic if your doing well don't leave all you have to japa - Tadey Travel
We need to talk
Mr Frankleen, if it is not to late just tell the guy to head back home and use his contacts within the industry to secure another role, it may not be as good as the one he originally left but preserving his sanity is a price worth paying.
Why not travel on holiday 1st stay a couple of weeks to get a feel of things.
Lack of reaserch and sense of purpose
Is a big problem.
Absolutely well said 😎👌🏾🔥 they’ll see the money spent on the first trip (researching) as a waste.
@@Phrankleen13
Exactly, a waste that leads to hardships, crazy thinking.
.
Except they are renting a place ...if u stay with a family during ur stay u won’t be able to see the west for what it is .....if u plan on relocating....travel , rent a place for 3 months why also observing the kind of job majority of ur ppl are doing based on their degree and without degree , build connection for jobs , check all the cost that will be involved in renting or buying a house , food cost , transportation , watch news , factor racism
I’ve almost finished my house in Nigeria can’t wait to move in , abroad I’ll be visiting not living permanent
Please make sure you have business to support your self with it
Hope I can get a room there ?
Good luck!!
Good luck ☺️☺️
My mom and I had the same conversation over the years in relation to Jamaica. For some, life was hard so migration was an option, for some, life was not hard, it’s all relative.
God bless you my brother, keep educating these black folks, well said.
Why will someone earning a little over 8,000 dollars a month in Nigeria leave their job and move to the UK?? It is economic suicide and doesn't make sense. I lived in the States for 30 years; pursued my higher education there (Bachelor's degree and two Master degrees); worked in corporate America; and never earned 8,000 dollars a month.
Thank you for the subject! This discussion MUST BE IN EVERY SOCIAL media!
Hi Phrankleen, don't let them lose your cool 😎 you are telling the truth.
I've missed precious time being in the West which I can't ever get back , Africa keep ringing on my mind everyday 😪, I know my Heart and success is surely back Home and not here bro.
I can't wait
Hmmmm I'm just crying 😭 listening to this phrankleen.. you've spoken truth.. neocolonialism is happening.. I came to California just a month ago and I understand what you are saying , sooo sad ... I do phrankleen..
Thankfully for opening our eyes with your true talk
Sir I got so much respect for you....you're doing a great job
Your haircut crisp,Franco Nero!
@Phrakleen. Thanks a million time. We are learning a lot of things here
True Phrankleen am happy with my 2200m2 in Zimbabwe. I can have 3 dogs and a fowl run, I even have my own ground water, I am grateful and blessed.
Boda, consider yourself as having done an amazing job! Because I feel complete emancipation after finding and subscribing your channel. Abi oooooooo!!!!!✊🏾
I feel sorry for the man who came here. But he must take accountability for listening to his wife who did not do her numbers and unfortunately neither did he. This is the unfortunate part, we lead with our feelings and this idea of `arriving'. The wife will have regrets too and I hope they can find their way back together and move on. Even back to Nigeria because his good reputation there may still work for him. But I agree don't throw your lives away for the abroad. The abroad is not asking for you to come and especially at 30 plus without a secured job.
You are 💯 correct, I can't believe he allowed his wife to drag them in this situation.
@@tundeforesythe7554 there are many men like that!
@@Phrankleen13 true.
Very Annoying
He should return to Nigeria and start all over again. It's going to be tough but its doable. Drop your pride and go home, now you know what overseas look like. He cant continue sitting at home hoping to find a fantastic job, the BTA will run out and then it becomes a herculean task to raise a flight ticket to return.
I just hope people back home will understand this 🙏
I hope we can make Nigeria more comfortable for all our people so this age of desperation comes to an end.
Right definition.
It's an age of desperation.
Not funny at all.
Bro, we live in a globalized world, you can make Nigeria comfortable for yourself easily
Phrankleen your topic is full of information thank you Phrankleen.
I just stumbled on your show and everything you said resonated with my experience here in the US. I saw everything called Neocolonialsm here..I didn't know the vocabulary but mehn you spoke the truth. Black people let's emancipate ourselves and each other from mental slavery. Let's build our beautiful and blessed continent. But like Phrankleen said it starts with us loving and supporting each other. Your success is my success and vice versa. God bless your ministry Sir.
i just came back from the US in february let me tell you the truth Nigerians are suffering over there no place like home. thank you
I’m a Nigerian in the US. I’m not suffering. 😂😂😂
@@rg8162 you are not a Nigerian with this your name even if you are Nigerian if you are not suffering that does not others are not suffering infact those that are suffering are more than those that are enjoying.
I'm an American, and millions of people are suffering here. I don't understand why people come over here voluntarily to join this "rat race".
@@godwinejiofor8064 yes, there are some Nigerians who are suffering. And there are others who are thriving. I consider myself one of the ones who are thriving. But I also want to go home. It is possible to be successful in both places.
They are not suffering they are just misguided people
Normal parole l know former Nigerian Judge driving Cab in US. He regrets living every day.
Wow...
😂😂😂😂lol
Oh boy! You are spitting facts.... Glad I found this content this morning
This why I love watching yu because yu say it very blunt and yu explain very realistic all about life
What you said is 100% correct. Am currently in the uk and life hear for Africans is simply that way all. The thing is people should learn quickly expecially those whose age's are under 40 to go back home set things right.
Great content, very refreshing.Keep up the great work 🇿🇦
The universe will be your defence in everything you do phrankleen...thanks for educating us with your outstanding wisdom.
I travelled to Dubai on visit, I saw how Nigerians close to their 50's delivering food with bicycle; so many of them are roaming the street doing nothing.
Well said
Man, you are truthful with the facts and your humour is class. 'ono agba haun haun'
The proverbial two shakes of a duck's tail y'all. I love it!! 🤣🤣.
Yes brother, you are absolutely right. I get so infuriated at the airport.
He should've done a better research such as visiting UK on vacations before relocating.
True
Mehn 😥😥😥😥, Man just gotta move back and go find another job in Nigeria! With his CV he will get a good Job but it’s a tough decision. 😭😭
My brother I am not sure how I ended up here but you are absolutely correct. Being from Cameroon I must say that unfortunately ours is a country where the playing field is completely uneven and made even harder for the English speaking peoples of Cameroon. So coming to the west seemed as the best alternative. But we suffer here. The hype of the west is definitely not true. Yes some of us do make decent lives but we have to conform to a reality that is definitely NOT ours. If we have the opportunity to go back home and be Africans, that is always best. Thank you for the knowledge and insights. Keep doing what you do. We applaud you.
Phrankleen if only I could like you're show a million time's I would you are always so much on point especially with that comment that black folks are our own enemy I love and appreciate what you're doing please keep up the good works
Its one of the most soul destroying experiences one could ever go through. If you are doing well stay back home. Life abroad is not for everyone. For starters forget about respect thats onething you will not get in the west. Atleast back home you will live and experience your own culture. Stay blessed.
Nice job bro, I always love ur content.
Thank you Phrankleen, the point about us getting gassed because we see a foreigner speaking our language annoys me. Thought I was the only one who noticed this
😂😂😂... @Phrankleen got no chill. Lmao at the more u come the bigger my horns grow. Yo! The visuals of that shit is just super crazy
This is what Judge Mathis said about women in America regarding temporary restraining orders (TRO). ‘So many men are being criminalized for things they haven’t done. Women do this a lot. They retaliate a lot through the law falsely. You are jeopardizing the men’s entire future.’ So, Phrankleen what this woman did to her husband in the story you shared, is common in the U.S. as well.
Smart men never marry in the west. The system is self destructive by destroying their males.....especially in marriage!!
Leopard Jeopardy, I call it!!! A Leopard can not change its spots! #DoubleTheDeathOfHuMAN🤔
You just said "retaliate" what have the men been doing to the women that made them "retaliate ". I am not condoning what this particular woman in this story did but the men KNOW very well that they are not innocent. so what did he do to her that made her retaliate?
@@barbarafadare9579 Exactly. What are these women retaliating against if nothing has been done to them?
@@barbarafadare9579 Men want to lead while women don't want to follow leadership. The west is gynocentric and it is not helping the health of the homes.
You keep it real 💯
Hello, Phrankleen. I am sick as a dog but I am binge-watching to catch up on what I've missed.

Wow, you are a practitioner of ifa, i am from the Igbo tribe, we call our own Agunsi. Am also a practitioner of Agunsi
✊🏾😁🤎🖤
I hail you both. Let's reclaim our ancestry, instead of forcing ourselves on other people genealogy via their religion
Another great show phrankleen, hopefully our people would listen. please do you have any other means of paying for ifa divination, am having problem with the PayPal.
I can raise a PayPal invoice for you … it’ll allow you to pay with your credit or debit card.
That would be great

First mistake: relocating abroad when you are already doing well in Nigeria. Second mistake: resigning from your job when you are not sure of what job you will land abroad.
You had money....you shd have been doing long vacation to study the system first.
Phrankleen, you are too funny especially in the way you talk about the way Africans regard white men. My cousin travelled to Nigeria with his Canadian wife some years ago and on their return, the wife told me that she was regarded like a star in Nigeria. Every Nigerian wanted to meet with her and say hello.
We love strangers,it’s not bcos of colour. How would she had if no one or not many people popped in to appreciate her coming
@@bengold7406 let's be honest with ourselves bros,we Africans regard the white man very highly. Videos like this help educate people.
Your cousin is likely an Igbo man? Igbo men like to marry white women.
Just watched this video... Subscribed. You are so on point re Neo-colonialism and trying to knock some sense into people who throw everything away to come to the West due to the colonised mindset we have, etc. Keep educating and opening the eyes of our people. Peace
Blacks are more now on revolving doors 🚪 We are ordained on reckless impatient due to ability of in depth thinking. Frantz Fanon remarked in his writings ✍️
Wow…Uncle Phrankleen not playing! He is pissed with us, let us embrace our Black Heritage and push for greatness! 🙌🏾🇳🇬👍🏽
my days, spot on. Word on location, fact... I have been preaching this a long time now. no worry about werey wey dey your page.
Another wonderful session bro. Stay blessed🤗🤗🤗
👌🏾Great minds think alike 👏🏽👏🏽 Please pay no mind to the coconut gatekeepers. ( black on the outside but white on the inside 🥥
I listened to this video and can Identify with the guy's story, I would do anything to get back home in the Caribbean, the biggest mistake I made was to get on that plane to come to the UK over 18 years ago.
You can always get on another plane and go back.
You are so right about being victims of neocolonialism, or 'the white man's ice is colder'. It is shocking that a middle-aged man with a wife and kids, self-built home and a good job would leave all that to move to a much more expensive country without the guarantee of a job. If you had to live with a friend even for a week, that was an irresponsible move.
It is truly sad what this man went through.
Some people grow up in the diaspora(from a young age) and end up settling there and living relatively well. That's is far different than someone who leaves all they have built to start over in a new country without having saved 1 year's living expense.
Imagine someone like SisiYemmie - successful Nigerian YTer deciding to move to UK. That would be a dumb move because she will have to start over in an expensive country and lower her quality of life just to live well.
Take note, people.
Thanks Phrankleen, you saved my life!!!!!!!
This is so heartbreaking
Africans need to understand the difference between cost of living and stress attached to living abroad.
You're telling the truth. But African people will never believe you, if you tell them not to go to Abroad. I think they should travel to Abroad first for three months. Before selling their fortune or quit their jobs.
I can hardly breath and so consumed with your story that any important assignment I have will have to be attended later even if you speak for hours. I feel extremely sorry for this man. so sad. l have told so many of my Nigerian brothers and sisters that living in western world don't fit our human race. it kills our culture and self. our wives makes it a hell with their attitude of not working along with their husbands. I plead this man should use his last Penny and go back home before he goes mental. All what you have said are the realities of the western world. Thanks a lot.😮
That's right my brother. Well said
It is time for the gentleman to abandon the project in the UK. And return home to Naija. And leverage the connections he has.
The forex brought from Nigeria will burn out quickly like wild fire in California during summer time.
I love you man for this total truth.
Always looking for validation. Job, Entertainment,.. everything. The Wihite should say that it is good for us to think that we are better.
Oh my days bro I was once here Damm…i lost my house and kids to my ex wife..Black men in the UK got brought a lot and we don’t talk because of our culture and shame…I can totally relate to this bro but am glad today I own houses here in the UK and all is now history but those days were dark and scary….🤦🏿♂️
The man needs to back to Nigeria, find another job in the financial sector. His brother will help him. The move back home will heal his mental wellbeing
Yes, he had to move back home
I really enjoyed it and you really said the truth, and the lady l think some people give her a bad advice, but am sure she regrets lt now.
Hi all what you advice are truth God will keep giving you more wisdom
Looking extra handsome today P! Never stop the content ....for the pro- Africa impact and maybe also for the eye candy 🤣
It's sad. He should have just moved his family alone so that he can continue working to send money. If he has a degree, he can convert it at naric (national academic recognition information centre) and use it to apply for a job in a company over there. Who knows? He might be lucky to find a company that will recruit him and apply for work permit for him if he has something to bring to the table since he has a lot of experiences . I know some of people who did that and got a job. He shouldn't be scared of deportation or anything, there is no crime in trying. Pa ri pa ri ę, o ma fi ifa te ni di.
She aint ur wife if u dont Live togther
Lol please don’t ban all the trolls, they fire up the conversations 😂
you are right if you are doing good in the motherland .you should do your research before going to the west .
You shouldn't even move when you are doing fine. Only broke or unemployed people can take the chance and move...or young teens...etc. The west is very rough, wild, brutal and expensive.
I WONT LEAVE NIGERIA IF I EARN THAT AMOUNT.
Hello Phrankleen, I got this question.
The narrative is usually 'if u got smthn doing in Naija, don't come' .... how about if you got not much doing in Naija.
I dey gbadun you my brother, especially when you speak yoruba to those senseless black folks. You doing a great job. We need more of your kind to unscrew the nut in there brains... 1luv
Once those cops are involved in any marriage, it is never ever the same regardless of the outcome.
You are really saying the truth. Our people back home will never understand until they find themselves in the system. I can imagine what is going in the mind of the dude, so pathetic.
You sure look fresh😀Phrankleen, did you get the chance to advice him to call his brother and get a one way ticket home ? With his background, he can get a job and start afresh.
I actually asked him to call his older brother… it’s understandable that he’s shameful about making the call 📞 because he’ll get a mouthful of rebuking, but I’d swallow my pride and make the call if I was in his shoes.
@@Phrankleen13 Thanks for the response big brother. May the ancestors and the spirits continue to protect and bless you for the great work you do every day. You are invited to our family home whenever you ever visit North Carolina. My family love you and your program.
🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿❤️
He should swallow his pride and move back to Lagos, use your network to get another job. London isn't your friend if you are broke or poor. London is an illusion, don't be trapped mentally or spiritually trapped.
We need to walk away from the soap opera mentality that you can only make it if you travel abroad!
Haaa 3 mill a month
Why leave that
My God
