Uae is another worst place to travel to for greener pastures...I always advise people to travel to countries that have human right. Arab countries are the worst countries to go for greener pastures. Do not try it and dont let anyone convince you.
Exactly.....that was my thoughts. Uae 🇦🇪???!!!! Bad idea bad movement. Not just going to human right.....that individual must have skills certificates as well. Be equipped. I mean in developed countries that has and appreciate human.
If you wanna travel abroad, don't just go to any country and be trapped!!. The rule: 1. Don't travel to a non-English zone 2. Do not travel to a non-Christian country 3. Get a genuine Visa Traveling still pays
Exactly been thinking the same thing...non Christian country is a NO for me I want a country where I can worship my Lord Jesus Christ freely Love from Kenya 🇰🇪
The grass always looks greener on the other side. In another country it's hard word and just survival not living. It's a lonely life and you become invisible. The last to be hired and the first to be fired. Christian countries ?? it's an eye opener.
@@eddasang9393 then stay in Kenya and worship him as much as you feel like. Other countries are gradually doing away with religion, unlike us Africans!!!
I was very poor in America because rents, electricity food etc. is so damn expensive but when I moved to Africa I am very successful and rich! I never owned anything in America but a car! Now I own properties and business in Delta-
I, for one, will strongly advise our people (Nigerians) and fellow Africans to stop traveling to any united Arab country or middle eastern countries go get a better life unless you have good reliable connections, funds etc.....or else you'll end up worse than where you came from!!! Unless the people from those countries have the love of God in their hearts.....just forget it!! Plus, our people back home need to stop looking at going to overseas as if they're going to Heaven!! We really need to change our mentality!!
see eh, I am tired to talking to our people about this travelling thing, they will be telling you that this person is making XYZ in Amazon, Canada this, Canada that, they don't care even if you warn them
@BARBARA FADARE my fellow Nigerian sister I greet you. I myself have told them repeatedly, the only difference between 🇳🇬 and overseas ( western part of the earth) is the government/social services system and rate exchange 🖐🏽 and that's it! But, like you stated, they don't listen let alone believe what we tell them, until they fall into the hot pot only to learn the hard way🤷
@@olufunmilayoafisunlu1771 see my sister, there is nothing I haven't told this people, I am in Nigeria, I work in Victoria Island, my job doesn't pay much at all but I am managing myself with the little I get, I always have this discussion in my office, I have family abroad and 2 out of them are truthful enough to tell me what is really going on, all of my colleagues in office are always saying "jakpa jakpa" " what are your relocation plans?" I have told them that this abroad you people see as heaven is not what it seems, they will start arguing that me I like suffering, they don't even listen!
Does this "love of God" exist in the hearts of Africans?!!! Considering the new trend of folks seeking to relocate and emigrate to foreign countries for better opportunities, it's quite obvious that religion has done absolutely nothing for Nigeria and her citizens. "Love of God" my foot!! Religion is our main hindrance..
@deegaulle onyeigbo The mistake a lot of us have made is that, we have misplaced ' A relationship with The One and Only true Living God through our Lord Jesus (Yehoshuah) Christ (Ha'Macshiach) with religion. Religion is ordinance of things while Christ is a way of true Godly living!!
If only Nigerians realized the power that they possess, they might even change the whole of Africa. You are a proud people but I wish you were as proud about your home as well. You have so many intellectual people and it's heartbreaking to see all of that brilliance being used to better other countries except yours. People leave in hopes of returning when things are better but what I can tell you is that no one is going to make it better except you. Go study abroad, become that doctor but come back home so that you can be an example to the next generation, so that you can help your own people. Hell, I bet if all the people could come together, they can create a movement that will change Nigeria for the better, hold government accountable and let it serve its people but, all of that change starts with the people loving their country and wanting to see it prosper.
Well said. No one respects the Nigerian people and their contributions. I see the Nigerian people here in the US and I just see them prospering for themselves and posting on social media like they forgot their own country. That's crazy and why most people won't respect their selfish ways. I don't see any ever go back home to help their country and sending money back home will never equate to changing the future of a nation.
The problem with africa especially Nigeria is its government. The government officials are corrupt and they use government money for themselves rather than for the good of its people. Nigerians need to stop accepting this as the norm and elect people who are not corrupt
@@Amish07 not all of them what?? Are u even Nigerian?? Or have you ever lived in Nigeria?? I am Nigerian living Abroad..... it's a crazy place... our politicians have killed and destroyed that nation
Thank God you live to share your story. The 1.6naira you used to travel would have purchased 3 or more acres of farm land for you outside Lagos. Most of us refuse to do farming in Nigeria because we think it is below us, whereas you go outside the country and get employed as a farmer. Nigerians will rather be slaves in a foreign land than in their country.
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 ...exactly I left America because even though I was born there I couldn't afford to live & though it may appear that most African Americans born there are actually there living just fine its really as they they say "looks are deceiving" if your honestly calling living chest deep in debt good living then give it time all it takes is more than a few missed payments & them comingto get their stuff back & then we can begin to assess you attitude then but as for me I was tired of spending thousands in educational training courses in field's that I never got to work in while being paid for it so then I knew I to reconsidered my situation which lead me into considering farming so I packed up & headed out & no only to arrive on the soil & find out that it's a career that most have long since turned their nose up to & said heck no to doing so not realizing that there's a hugh difference in owning the farm land that your working on verses working on farm land for someone else that you'll never own farmland in western countries you probably wouldn't even be able to afford but on the soil you can its still possible 👍🏼

Never travel abroad without tangible purpose, abroad is good but requires a lot of focus and struggle and people will never tell you the truth unit you get there.
@@nicholasjames8020 what has a pastor got to do with what we are talking about here? Is it every problem that a pastor can solve? What about him getting in touch with an Alfa, high priest, etc?
Why do Africans always think it is easier abroad ? I just don’t get it. Especially the Middle East. It’s good to share these stories. But they will still go and be degraded. Africa too should also make the continent conducive for our young people to stay. We need to understand that the whole world despises us.
I don't despise Africans. But I think most of us should fix our lands. I am not African but this message is for all of us. Let's fix what we have why be disrespected when we have our own lands.
Abena Bonsu Africa can be rich in resources but that doesn't make life easy, first lack of job opportunities second bad government, you work attimes and no pay just for the few and it continues
You are not alone that misses home. Yes coming abroad have taught me lots of good things. It is always nice travelling you get to Explore the world and as for an african we need to see open our minds go home and make changes in a sustainable way
No I don't have any regrets. I think that also depends on the country you went to 😊. The best thing that ever happened to me is traveling abroad, I can't even count my blessings, trust me
Stop leaving your home countries while the rich and powerful counties like China, Germany, Russia and the U.S. moving in to devour your land, raping it and taking its natural resources all for their idol - money.
As a South African woman I always hear people in Nigeria wanting to come to South Africa thinking it's all rossy, what they don't know is that even us South Africans don't have jobs. Life is not as easy as other Africans think, crime rate is highest and many turn to criminal activities to survive. S.A is gradually becoming like Nigeria
As an AA. I hate 98% of hip hop music. The music has been weaponized and promotes degradation. Don't emulate black American hip hop artists. The music is destructive to the individual, family and community... Please think, people!!! Please spread the word!!.
@@ifehansson2254 Most unfortunate. AA( African Americans) have such a rich history of 👍 great art 🎭 and music 🎶🎵 culture 🧫. It's a travesty and crime for this generation of hoodlums to destroy it with 🗑️ trash.
Yes, I agree...I have been listening to afrobeatz for 5 years and never going backwards. That's why afrobeatz is number one, tune in if you haven't and clear your mind❣️🤞🏿
I watched your story with heavy heart. Lesson learnt. Many Africans think there's greener pasture on the other side. Only to get yourself trapped and become a victim of human trafficking. We fail in life to become stronger. Please pick up your life again and aim for your goals. Work or do business with your woman. Venture into the horizon and leverage. Don't put all your eggs into one basket. You'll not fail again.
It's ur luck dear. My hubby started in Dubai, I started in Saudi Arabia. Today I and my husband, we are in UK. U went there without right info and contact.. No country is easy, u have to hustle hard. Bitter truth.
True not every country that pple go is meant for you how can u go to Dubai with music career already he lost it there the Arabs have their own music preference and your own nationals there cant afford to go for your shows their hard earned money is to send home
You can say that again .patients pays.iv got a lot of friends who have made it in here in DXB.but if you ask them they start from those low jobs but now they are somewhere else. Of cz there is racism but,some africans are making it.if you have proper qualifications. There are many doctors, accountants, cashiers,engineers. Also take a look at the airport there are a lot of africans there working.

I'm in his situation right now,I'm stranded in Abudhabi with poor health condition, I need help to return to Nigeria. UAE is not for hustlers, and the longer you stay, the longer your suffering
My brother if you want to go back to Nigeria. Find a massage center in Abu Dhabi and work as a card man, any day CID catch you, they will take you to police station, from there you will be transferred to Prison and after sometime (maybe 1 month), they will deport you to Nigeria, they won't kill you.
Wow, thanks for sharing your experience. I'm from Jamaica and so many of us have the notion in our heads that traveling to other countries to work is always the answer, but often times discrimination and ill treatment is often the order of the day and if you're not strong it may break you when there is no support. I know it's not easy for you as you want to fully play your role of being the head provider for your family. You're a humble man and you've made it this far with a resilient and positive mindset that stood up to the temptation of not yielding to the evil scamming that could have land you in jail or cost you your life. Kudos to you and continue to love your and appreciate your wife as you have made it clear that she has really been that pillar of support for you. Bless up brother. I'm happy your back home with your family and in a better frame of mind to try at life again. Your story is definitely a lesson for all. May your life continue to grow from strength to strength as you realize your dreams and desires.
The only place “ blacks” can go outside of their own countries and have a measure of respect and opportunity is the US. You should thank “black Americans” for that instead of going there and disrespecting them!!!
@@drasta100 What US are you talking about? Obviously, you don't understand the country you're living in. The US is most anti black nation in the world. Having you working and spinning in their cooperate American workforce I call modern-day slave plantation and getting paid peanut isn't necessarily an opportunity. Try your hands on being self employed setting up a small business in America, where you can have the chance of getting more money in your pocket to be hit with a brick wall and tough regulations designed to keep you off. The white people comes through the door the next day and got out with everything they needed and their business is set up and running tomorrow 🙃 The corporate America is looting your intellectualism, skills, talents, creativity and build generational wealth for themselves. On the other hand is the government with their big butcher knife cutting off 30-40% in payroll taxes. Your net is not even for you, you'll need to give it back to them in sales, property and service taxes plus all mandatory payments like insurances. At the end you depend on debt credit card to shop for food and clothes and other needs because you've given back everything you made to the system. How about the so called home you bought on mortgage is a sham and scam. Just lose a job and miss payments for 3 months and the bank will be coming for your home. You'll be foreclosed, kicked out and they sold your house and keeo both their principal loan and your equity you made over the years. You're empty handed after investing so much on that home both in mortgages and home improvement. Even, if you manage to pay off mortgage, the municipality still have a lien in that house. If you default in your property taxes they put it up for auction. You own nothing in America other than debit. It's sad people are living in this country and don't understand the system.
Don’t travel abroad if you don’t have specific education, skills and experience needed in that country that will enable you land a good job. I am a Nigerian teacher working in Far East Asia, and I must say that two months salary of a foreign teacher in Far East Asia is more than the annual salary of a professor in any Nigerian university. Abroad is good but you must have the right education, skills and experience else it MAY be a living hell for you.
Hey bro!! No place like home,And also always listen to your parent advice,because they came to this world before you. Look after your wife,when things turn out good for you, A good wife is the one that has the heart of your wife. I see you making it in music. Good luck my bro and God blessed.
My dear l felt for you, you are speaking the truth,l have went through all this,Dubai is an expensive country, without visa change you are not allowed to be in the country, my brother thank God you are back, Dubai is a business country,
I pray to God to get rid of all these bad leader's in Nigeria so that our African brothers doesn't continue to waste away in all this foreign land. Each time i hear abt this my heart bleeds.
💞🇺🇸🙋🏾♀️ I'm a descendant of enslaved Alkebulans. Colonizers, conditioned us Black ppl to solely depend on God, while they steal our wealth, and oppress us. They have, because they take it. Our Creator doesn't have arms & legs. We are the change we need. It's up to us the ppl, to make that change. Not the governments 🙏🏾
I'm sorry for what you went through, you are a good man for not wanting to do wrong ... this world have too many people that have been living off of other peoples backs, we black people know how it feels to be used all our lives in order for other people to enjoy a lavish life style. I never believe in doing wrong to people even if they wrong me.
@Ginna.... Yes, I agree. Since one knows the pains of being treated badly, no way should a person repeat it. It is written, DO NOT copy your oppressor or your shame will be worse than theirs (paraphrased).
The fact that you want to travel does not mean that you will succeed. Many people if they can be patient have their destinies in their country not outside.
Dubai is a great place for the middle & upper classes who have money. If you are poor, forget it. Also those that do well have good qualifications say in banking, computers & the like. A person with no credible qualifications will not do well. You can't trust the agents especially Nigerian ones.
Sad experience, indeed. But people should travel with detailed knowledge of where they are going to. Dubai-(UAE) is not the US, Canada, UK, Ireland, Australia, Sweden, New Zealand, France, Germany, and many western EU nations. The Middle East is not your kind of countries to do well professionally if you're not in Engineering or Medicine or some tech field. Going to Dubai to push your Nigerian music rhythm was a poor decision. Dubai is an infant when it comes to media when compared to heavy weights like L.A.- (the world media capital), or even N.Y., London, or Paris. .....Dubai is mostly a tourist city. Many Africans must understand that. This guy only spent six months in Dubai and expected to make serious success. Heck NO, you must try to get used to your new environment for a few years and also get some vocational training education or some locally needed handy or technical skills. Even those people that travelled to western countries that I mentioned above, still have to spend some good amount of years to get to know their new country before expecting any gain. He also did not also have serious education completed in Nigeria before travelling abroad. He did not even try to learn the local language to get better handle of the system there. He seemed more to me that making quick money abroad was his main driving force. ....A BIG MISTAKE! Six months in Dubai was really nothing to get you set up. So, my opinion is that you didn't stay long enough to give a respectable opinion of that city to anyone. .....
Crap...!all the places you mentioned are also shit holes where racism is manufactured everyone has an experience of every place they go so please spare us the crap 😕
True... will never advice any "Hustling" nan/woman to go to the middle east except Israel.... that place is hell and their govt know of this exploitation..... The middle east and the Caribbean is a No no for a hustler..... Europe ,some part of south America and north America is good...
When people abroad send money to the people in Nigeria. You call it small change, you disperse it. That is what three quarters of people living abroad see. That is how hard they work to make that money that they always send to you people there. People abroad work so hard that you cannot believe it. You said you were uncomfortable to work in the farm 😀😀😀 what were you expecting? An office job????
Actually noone wants to give job to Nigerians in Dubai because of Nigerian bad reputation. The scamers give bad name to Nigerians, and therefore it is much more difficult to get decent job abroad.
So sorry for your bad experience on travelling to UAE. I've never been to Dubai but I have few tips for young people going to a new country they have never been to before. 1, Go to a country that you know someone before. 2, Pls ask important questions like availability of job, type and payment rate. 3, Try securing a job locally through someone there. 4, pls research through more than one person and even hit the internet if you need to. 5, Also don't forget to research about the weather. 6, Pray that God will direct your journey. I'm saying this because I have a nephew in Dubai and he is doing very well. And the best thing that happened to my life is travelling to UK.
This guy is saying the truth. I have been in UAE (Dubai) 🇦🇪 since July 2019 till tomorrow March 16th 2022 and I'm still living in there. Life here in Dubai is not easy. A lot of us were being deceived by the agents and what we see on social media, pictures and videos that are being edited. I've spent my money on visa many times and now i can't come back home to Nigeria cuz i don't have transport fee and even if i come back home for now i even have any money or where to go. Our president visited Dubai in December 2nd 2021 without saying anything about the way they are treating us instead they went and gave the UAE government a place to build emberssy in Lagos knowing fully well that they are not making visa for us to enable us get job... May Almighty God save and help us in Jesus name 🙏 amen 🙏
There are many persons bearly making ends meet in the Caribbean , no work since covid for many but the older relatives who recieves pension grants from our government ,,, l think you all needs should stay in Africa & grow food to supply your country as food prices gone up now & save on importation ,,, go back to the land to feed your families , thats what we doing here in the Caribbean
the Almighty God came a second time to this earth. He iz the 2nd coming Christ. The new name is already known to mankind. Why do you people still keep praying in the name of Jesus ? Didn't you hear the good news ..or did you not believe it ?
All I can say here is to appreciate the awareness being created by the owner of this channel. Nigerians and Africans generally need to be liberated by the Truth.
I am born in 🇿🇦 and I always told my 2 Burundian friends work here in 🇿🇦 l will never go overseas and travel only in Africa and my family must burying me 1day in Africa and I stay here no matter what
One day we the black race will the most respected race on this earth it's been a long road for us. So sorry for your exerience brother 'may the universe hear your cry and bless you so you can bless others 👊👊👊👊
Then what do you Africans insist on being around these people,these people do not like you,do not want your services..STAY WHERE YOU ARE..you Africans keep being around people who do not like you..not everything is for money
Nigeria is HELL...everyone is trying to escape there.... it's hard abroad though but many folks just want to leave Nigeria..they are even willing to risk their lives... Nigerians are really suffering... u start a business, the govt will frustrate you till u close shop... no electricity, fuel is gold....
You’re talking out of your ass. Try going to Syria, Yemen, or even Central African Republic before speaking such over inflated nonsense. Get educated, get skills, travel to different parts of the country to work and hustle. Plenty of Nigerians survive just fine. Or go to Kenya, South Africa l, Namibia, Rwanda, Botswana, or Ghana. Stop watching tv and the internet and thinking everywhere that has non black people is going to be paradise. Stop being silly
I am Kenyan and the good man is saying the truth. You really have to work hard to get sponsored by a legit company. Problem is our bros and sisters in middle east don't tell us the truth about that place. So when you get there you'll be shocked. Africans are going through hell of a time. Anyway I wish all African brothers and sisters good health and prosperity 🙏🙏
Since you are an Artist, compose a song reflecting the bad experience in U.A.E. so to deter brothers and sisters from traveling to those inhospitable countries.
You will be great but first, you must believe in yourself and stay clean. Never allow anyone talked you into "na village thing". Disappointments are in most cases blessing, blessing that will walk you into greatness.
Thank you Brother for sharing your story,thank God for keeping yourself under control and wisdom this is the issue for us blacks all over the globe no matter what tribe, country or who or where your from we are the same we are survivers and strong .This is what non blacks know for this they work to block,use and keep us down so they can stay fortunate.until we all work together as a people no matter who and where your from this will continue to happen to us as black people.remember it was not always like this.this is why we need to work together globally to make life better for all of us.until then this will keep happening.stick together no matter our differences as black people.Bless you bless us peace.
Good woman are not easy to have but thanks to God almighty that you have one and i love how you appreciate your wife for being they for you all this while when you are out there facing hardship God bless your family
This' a sad story. Unfortunately there're some countries on this globe that are NOTORIOUS for mishandling individuals due to the color of your skin - particularly black or brown folks/or ethnicity. Particularly {some} Nations to the extreme eastern-side of the African continent. It's PERTINENT to conduct a comprehensive RESEARCH prior to concluding on a/any decisions to either work in those nations or even take a holiday in those nations. Experiences can/may turn out to be unpleasant & more often than not POST TRAUMATIC! The manner in which they'd treat {some} of our African leaders {on their official or personal visits} - of course will differ immensely to that of an ordinary African visitor who is not displaying *GLAM* , but rather displaying *DESPAIR* ! Keep safe! Travel safe! Be vigil! 👀
The Lord will hold all of us accountable for the things we do in this life, The wealth, powerful, influential etc think that this is their only life... but they are being deceived by the devil, no one have to believe that doesn't bother me... There's a heaven and there's a hell, he know some of us think we can use Gods use and abuse people and not answerable to God for our evil wicked diabolical lifestyle, "God judgement is slow but sure." Romans 14:12 Every one of us have to give an account to Creator God for himself. Revelation 21:8 But the fearfull and unbelieving, the abominable, murderers, whoremongers, sorcerers idolaters (this means anything you put before God, like your money, things not only idols, people worship their cars and mansions, fame, popularity, bodies) shall have their part in the lake which burn with fire and brimstone: which is the second death. Therefore if knowing what God's word said and you still want to be evil and wicked and worshiping things and abuse and defraud humanity to get more wealth... go right ahead and enjoy, but remember you can't take your trikets with you to hell for all eternity
So proud to hear this. Born in the west to Nigerian parents I can say many of us are finding ways to return to Afrika as there is so much hatred and discrimination here. Well done for reconnecting with your truth
This man story should be an eye opener to other Nigerians who are thinking their country is not good enough for them to leave. Please there is no better place like home. I am writing from abroad, let us all build our country together like other people are building their countries and stop all the negative tendencies and take ownership of our country. A word is enough for a wise.
Wow I can tell tell this guy will make it.. I swear I believe if you are good, good will follow you.. you’re blessed and good days are ahead of you, Don’t give up. You are almost there.🙏🙏🙌🙌
MARRY HER. Stop using her and MARRY her for God's sake! Then, and only then, when/and if the financial situation improves, offer her a proper (guests and all) ceremony where all your loved ones can join you if that's her wish. Nobody needs to BECOME A FAMOUS RAPPER before they can marry the wife and children they already live with. She is an awesome woman and also an excellent mother. She deserves to be taken seriously. And by the way, that rap was/is terrible! Those lyrics don't help children, who will be fully focused on ''get money', which took you to UAE and take the majority of these people into slavery, mostly out of greed and envy. Create lyrics that will do good, there's an overabundance of trashy lyrics already. That would definitely make you noticed.
Yes, the music has been weaponized to destroy black life. Please don't emulate anyone who's bringing death and destruction... That includes African Americans and I am an African American. The music has contributed to devastation to our community... Stay away from it..
This young man is going to become huge in music industry. He has what it takes. Don't forget your, God, yourself, Mom, wife, kids, siblings, etc. Nothing is stopping you. God is going to raise you up by sending you some people to help you with your music. Keep practicing to perfect your music. You are a smart young man. Please don't leave your day job right now if you have one. Don't allow anyone to lie to you in any shape or form. Desperation led you to Middle East please don't let that kinds of desperation lead you to dangerous people both in Nigeria and abroad, bad path, zones, and country. You should thank God for coming home safely and healthy from Middle East. God continues to shower you with his holy blessings.

That’s awesome to hear someone going to Africa and succeeding. Meanwhile we Africans think abroad is everything we here in America doing 5 jobs to make ends meet which is next to impossible due to all the family members back home relying on u. What a waste of time. But some few pple are lucky and make it but I bet u the vast majority regret. The only good thing out the developed countries is that u will always have a job as long as u can work. If u are sick and can’t work then u are doomed. Not even a farm to rely on or family members
Hmmmmm no job in Dubai my brother 🤔? We Africans are the one making life difficult for us in UAE because we don't love yourselves at all. The UAE you are saying that's they are paying 92 AED a month, but everyday Nigerians are going there to make money may God forgive us Africans
We should all discard the saying of witches after us from family but keep in mind that success has no straight line. Both in US, Europe and other wester country that are viable in term of job availability, their citizens face same. Dough we carry more load in our shoulder here that usually dragging us down. Keep moving guys and donde stopped trying!
Thank goodness he had the bravery to tell his story of surival in Dubai, so many people would be embarrassed to share their life experience in a foreign country.
Abroad is not for everyone. There are people still in Nigeria nurturing the ambition of travelling abroad still. If Nigeria works for you stay there and if abroad works for you stay there. If you are planning on travelling abroad do it probably and go with skills that will help you obtain employment quickly.
I am so glad you share this story, because I was planning to relocate to Dubai. I am so sorry about what happened. Usually people pay for their wrongs. God is not someone for them to play with.
Boss man, trust me it's coming. By now you're already starting to realise that dream and your story will be so beautiful when you finally tell it on the world stage. Such is life, keep the inner strength going, I can see the light for you and it's super bright
What sad stories our Africans brothers, mother's fathers uncles, aunties and sisters are going through in Middle Eastern countries? Please stay home and eat gari, beans, etc.
I dont agree with you that if a Nigerian is in another country they would not get help if you all stranded. In my country it doesn't matter who you or where you are we will help. Alot of Nigerians are here in my country. Some own businesses, some are teaches, doctors, nurses, some are illegal etc
Am a somalian who was born and raised in dubai for 18 years, i really feel like there’s a lot of unanswered questions and different scenarios that get thrown out there, ask me anything! Ill try to clear everything up as much as i could.
If I was born in Nigeria 🇳🇬 I would never left my country. Likewise I’m here in the USA 🇺🇸 I will never left my country to work in another man land. It’s not easy. Stay strong 💪 bro. Keep pushing
I don't get your response. Cos you said you were born in Nigeria but you are in US you're very lucky that you're not in dubai you will be singing a different song u can't compare US with any other country period
@@davidalekwe2144 America is not an easy place to live either, you need 2 jobs to make ends meet... You work very very hard, every day on your feet and don't have time to relax or enjoy the fruit of your labor... It's very very expensive place to live.. our economy is not good as you think
That’s dumb. The USA is the richest country on the planet. Most people from around the world move to the US. Not many people migrate to a poorer country for better opportunities
@@davidalekwe2144 Don't be envious. He said if he was born in Nigeria. Not he was was born in Nigeria. Nigeria is known for it's scamming. Most of you deserve to suffer. You'll are believers in god, the irony! Can't you read English? You have a tremendous chip on your shoulder.
In 2020 Feb 6th I travelled to dubai all in the name of greener pasture, though my friend lives there with her husband that was what helped me from been stranded. I started applying for jobs I lost count of jobs I applied not even one call, instead one of the shops in Abu shagara cos that's where my friend and her husband lives I went to drop my cv, the boss wanted to employ me as house maid. My friend and her husband said I should not do house maid job I was getting tired and that was the pandemic period it wasn't easy getting something doing. If not the dubai govt that extended our stay due to the covid 19. Omo I became so tired I was like in the middle of deep blue sea. I came Sept 2020. Them say who no go no know. I did not regret it cos it was in that situation God located me to my husband.
You went to Dubai to learn a life lesson that you could never have learned any other way!!! First Borns are known to have certain challenges!!! I think you need to count your blessings to realize just how blessed you are. You have true love standing by your side, healthy children, and family who love you enough to bail you out!!! A lot of people in the world today don't have that much support
Igbo!! Most of them are scammers. They would do anything to make money. I got scammed by one. Relationship scam. Smh. Scammed their very own. I feel it for you
I am sorry to hear all your painful experience abroad. I lived abroad myself and I can understand exactly what you went through, May the Good Lord guide and open doors for all of us .Keep your head up and be positive my brother.
I don’t understand these Nigerians at all. Do they expect life to be a walk in the park. Normal challenges people all over the world go through they want to be pitied for going through it. We need to really own up and be patient with our lives
I really appreciate you. do not think that you are losing money and time, You have gained a lot of experience that is comparable to PHD. In addition, your experience is a great help to many Africans who intend to leave their country and they may stay at home in rich Africa. I wish you good luck in your life and god bless you and your family. much love to you. your story is very touching🙏🏽💕💐
Uae is another worst place to travel to for greener pastures...I always advise people to travel to countries that have human right. Arab countries are the worst countries to go for greener pastures. Do not try it and dont let anyone convince you.
Especially if you’re a woman !!!!!
@@British_Cocoa both please but unfortunately ladies
Exactly.....that was my thoughts. Uae 🇦🇪???!!!! Bad idea bad movement. Not just going to human right.....that individual must have skills certificates as well. Be equipped. I mean in developed countries that has and appreciate human.
Except you’re a doctor. For doctors it’s glowing with milk and honey. Even doctors from Europe go to UAE for the pay
Excetly
If you wanna travel abroad, don't just go to any country and be trapped!!.
The rule:
1. Don't travel to a non-English zone
2. Do not travel to a non-Christian country
3. Get a genuine Visa
Traveling still pays
Exactly been thinking the same thing...non Christian country is a NO for me
I want a country where I can worship my Lord Jesus Christ freely
Love from Kenya 🇰🇪
The grass always looks greener on the other side. In another country it's hard word and just survival not living. It's a lonely life and you become invisible.
The last to be hired and the first to be fired. Christian countries ?? it's an eye opener.
Christian country , which ones 🤔
@@eddasang9393 then stay in Kenya and worship him as much as you feel like. Other countries are gradually doing away with religion, unlike us Africans!!!
True this Arab country's they re wicked
I was very poor in America because rents, electricity food etc. is so damn expensive but when I moved to Africa I am very successful and rich! I never owned anything in America but a car! Now I own properties and business in Delta-
Even me I was In Delta I want Travel Abroad
I am not from there but this is why i want to live in Nigeria
@Dee.h734 why did you wanna come live in nigeria 🇳🇬?
@@gafaradedapo4800 many reasons... One is it's easier to own property there...
@@Dee.h734 Yeah, sure...
I, for one, will strongly advise our people (Nigerians) and fellow Africans to stop traveling to any united Arab country or middle eastern countries go get a better life unless you have good reliable connections, funds etc.....or else you'll end up worse than where you came from!!! Unless the people from those countries have the love of God in their hearts.....just forget it!! Plus, our people back home need to stop looking at going to overseas as if they're going to Heaven!! We really need to change our mentality!!
see eh, I am tired to talking to our people about this travelling thing, they will be telling you that this person is making XYZ in Amazon, Canada this, Canada that, they don't care even if you warn them
@BARBARA FADARE my fellow Nigerian sister I greet you. I myself have told them repeatedly, the only difference between 🇳🇬 and overseas ( western part of the earth) is the government/social services system and rate exchange 🖐🏽 and that's it! But, like you stated, they don't listen let alone believe what we tell them, until they fall into the hot pot only to learn the hard way🤷
@@olufunmilayoafisunlu1771 see my sister, there is nothing I haven't told this people, I am in Nigeria, I work in Victoria Island, my job doesn't pay much at all but I am managing myself with the little I get, I always have this discussion in my office, I have family abroad and 2 out of them are truthful enough to tell me what is really going on, all of my colleagues in office are always saying "jakpa jakpa" " what are your relocation plans?" I have told them that this abroad you people see as heaven is not what it seems, they will start arguing that me I like suffering, they don't even listen!
Does this "love of God" exist in the hearts of Africans?!!! Considering the new trend of folks seeking to relocate and emigrate to foreign countries for better opportunities, it's quite obvious that religion has done absolutely nothing for Nigeria and her citizens. "Love of God" my foot!! Religion is our main hindrance..
@deegaulle onyeigbo The mistake a lot of us have made is that, we have misplaced ' A relationship with The One and Only true Living God through our Lord Jesus (Yehoshuah) Christ (Ha'Macshiach) with religion. Religion is ordinance of things while Christ is a way of true Godly living!!
If only Nigerians realized the power that they possess, they might even change the whole of Africa. You are a proud people but I wish you were as proud about your home as well. You have so many intellectual people and it's heartbreaking to see all of that brilliance being used to better other countries except yours. People leave in hopes of returning when things are better but what I can tell you is that no one is going to make it better except you. Go study abroad, become that doctor but come back home so that you can be an example to the next generation, so that you can help your own people. Hell, I bet if all the people could come together, they can create a movement that will change Nigeria for the better, hold government accountable and let it serve its people but, all of that change starts with the people loving their country and wanting to see it prosper.
Well said. No one respects the Nigerian people and their contributions. I see the Nigerian people here in the US and I just see them prospering for themselves and posting on social media like they forgot their own country. That's crazy and why most people won't respect their selfish ways. I don't see any ever go back home to help their country and sending money back home will never equate to changing the future of a nation.
The problem with africa especially Nigeria is its government. The government officials are corrupt and they use government money for themselves rather than for the good of its people. Nigerians need to stop accepting this as the norm and elect people who are not corrupt

This guy will make it, keep grinding. Don’t be involve in crime and blow when you are already in jail…
Thank God you live to share your story. The 1.6naira you used to travel would have purchased 3 or more acres of farm land for you outside Lagos. Most of us refuse to do farming in Nigeria because we think it is below us, whereas you go outside the country and get employed as a farmer. Nigerians will rather be slaves in a foreign land than in their country.
Some farmers in Nigeria are not safe. Farmers get killed and kidnapped from their farms now. No security. I really pity this victims through.
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 ...exactly I left America because even though I was born there I couldn't afford to live & though it may appear that most African Americans born there are actually there living just fine its really as they they say "looks are deceiving" if your honestly calling living chest deep in debt good living then give it time all it takes is more than a few missed payments & them comingto get their stuff back & then we can begin to assess you attitude then but as for me I was tired of spending thousands in educational training courses in field's that I never got to work in while being paid for it so then I knew I to reconsidered my situation which lead me into considering farming so I packed up & headed out & no only to arrive on the soil & find out that it's a career that most have long since turned their nose up to & said heck no to doing so not realizing that there's a hugh difference in owning the farm land that your working on verses working on farm land for someone else that you'll never own farmland in western countries you probably wouldn't even be able to afford but on the soil you can its still possible 👍🏼
@@shebanayah1 Why didn't you just buy farmland in the USA and then rent it to a farmer? That would be great money!!

Are u hearing urself, how can you b a slave in ur own country again. Is it normal?
Never travel abroad without tangible purpose, abroad is good but requires a lot of focus and struggle and people will never tell you the truth unit you get there.
If you tell people the truth, they will never believe you. They prefer to see for themselves. It's really hard.
People tell you the truth all the time...but people dont listen

Shoo, I do tell them don’t bother to come cos abroad is not meant for lazy shit they do in Nigeria
Why do Africans always think it is easier abroad ? I just don’t get it. Especially the Middle East. It’s good to share these stories. But they will still go and be degraded. Africa too should also make the continent conducive for our young people to stay. We need to understand that the whole world despises us.
I hear you but I still hate when those bastard trick our people
I don't despise Africans. But I think most of us should fix our lands. I am not African but this message is for all of us. Let's fix what we have why be disrespected when we have our own lands.
Abena Bonsu Africa can be rich in resources but that doesn't make life easy, first lack of job opportunities second bad government, you work attimes and no pay just for the few and it continues
The continent cannot become conducive with horrible leadership and corruption.
The buy what they see in the media.
You are not alone that misses home.
Yes coming abroad have taught me lots of good things. It is always nice travelling you get to Explore the world and as for an african we need to see open our minds go home and make changes in a sustainable way
No I don't have any regrets. I think that also depends on the country you went to 😊. The best thing that ever happened to me is traveling abroad, I can't even count my blessings, trust me
@@ivieeva6166 Don't you feel an obligation to goback and help your people? You all don't have any loyalty to your country.
Stop leaving your home countries while the rich and powerful counties like China, Germany, Russia and the U.S. moving in to devour your land, raping it and taking its natural resources all for their idol - money.
It all depends on the country you traveled to and your papers. UAE is not a country that will give you the kind of life you want.

As a South African woman I always hear people in Nigeria wanting to come to South Africa thinking it's all rossy, what they don't know is that even us South Africans don't have jobs.

I watched your story with heavy heart. Lesson learnt. Many Africans think there's greener pasture on the other side. Only to get yourself trapped and become a victim of human trafficking.

It's ur luck dear. My hubby started in Dubai, I started in Saudi Arabia. Today I and my husband, we are in UK. U went there without right info and contact.. No country is easy, u have to hustle hard. Bitter truth.
True not every country that pple go is meant for you how can u go to Dubai with music career already he lost it there the Arabs have their own music preference and your own nationals there cant afford to go for your shows their hard earned money is to send home
You can say that again .patients pays.iv got a lot of friends who have made it in here in DXB.but if you ask them they start from those low jobs but now they are somewhere else.

Give your details through the Embassy, so we'll all know it's legitimate and consider helping, maybe to get flight ticket home
Wow, thanks for sharing your experience. I'm from Jamaica and so many of us have the notion in our heads that traveling to other countries to work is always the answer, but often times discrimination and ill treatment is often the order of the day and if you're not strong it may break you when there is no support. I know it's not easy for you as you want to fully play your role of being the head provider for your family. You're a humble man and you've made it this far with a resilient and positive mindset that stood up to the temptation of not yielding to the evil scamming that could have land you in jail or cost you your life. Kudos to you and continue to love your and appreciate your wife as you have made it clear that she has really been that pillar of support for you. Bless up brother. I'm happy your back home with your family and in a better frame of mind to try at life again. Your story is definitely a lesson for all. May your life continue to grow from strength to strength as you realize your dreams and desires.
The only place “ blacks” can go outside of their own countries and have a measure of respect and opportunity is the US. You should thank “black Americans” for that instead of going there and disrespecting them!!!
@@drasta100 👍👍
Blessings to you, Sir. Continue on your positive path and you definitely will yield the desired results. Blessings 🙏❤,
Amen. Thank you our cousin in Jamaica 🇯🇲
@@drasta100 What US are you talking about? Obviously, you don't understand the country you're living in. The US is most anti black nation in the world.
Having you working and spinning in their cooperate American workforce I call modern-day slave plantation and getting paid peanut isn't necessarily an opportunity. Try your hands on being self employed setting up a small business in America, where you can have the chance of getting more money in your pocket to be hit with a brick wall and tough regulations designed to keep you off. The white people comes through the door the next day and got out with everything they needed and their business is set up and running tomorrow 🙃
The corporate America is looting your intellectualism, skills, talents, creativity and build generational wealth for themselves. On the other hand is the government with their big butcher knife cutting off 30-40% in payroll taxes. Your net is not even for you, you'll need to give it back to them in sales, property and service taxes plus all mandatory payments like insurances.
At the end you depend on debt credit card to shop for food and clothes and other needs because you've given back everything you made to the system.
How about the so called home you bought on mortgage is a sham and scam. Just lose a job and miss payments for 3 months and the bank will be coming for your home. You'll be foreclosed, kicked out and they sold your house and keeo both their principal loan and your equity you made over the years. You're empty handed after investing so much on that home both in mortgages and home improvement.
Even, if you manage to pay off mortgage, the municipality still have a lien in that house. If you default in your property taxes they put it up for auction.
You own nothing in America other than debit. It's sad people are living in this country and don't understand the system.
Don’t travel abroad if you don’t have specific education, skills and experience needed in that country that will enable you land a good job. I am a Nigerian teacher working in Far East Asia, and I must say that two months salary of a foreign teacher in Far East Asia is more than the annual salary of a professor in any Nigerian university. Abroad is good but you must have the right education, skills and experience else it MAY be a living hell for you.
I love how he appreciates his wife
Hey bro!! No place like home,And also always listen to your parent advice,because they came to this world before you. Look after your wife,when things turn out good for you, A good wife is the one that has the heart of your wife. I see you making it in music. Good luck my bro and God blessed.

My dear l felt for you, you are speaking the truth,l have went through all this,Dubai is an expensive country, without visa change you are not allowed to be in the country, my brother thank God you are back, Dubai is a business country,
I hope other people will hear this and learn a lesson.
What if he brings another person who made it by travelling abroad. Would your perception change?
I pray to God to get rid of all these bad leader's in Nigeria so that our African brothers doesn't continue to waste away in all this foreign land.
Each time i hear abt this my heart bleeds.

That was real experience of uae from that man, no lie in all what he said ,I went to dubai 10th july 2019 and i back to Nigeria 14th of July 2020...
I'm sorry for what you went through, you are a good man for not wanting to do wrong ... this world have too many people that have been living off of other peoples backs, we black people know how it feels to be used all our lives in order for other people to enjoy a lavish life style. I never believe in doing wrong to people even if they wrong me.
@Ginna....
Yes, I agree.
Since one knows the pains of being treated badly, no way should a person repeat it. It is written, DO NOT copy your oppressor or your shame will be worse than theirs (paraphrased).
The fact that you want to travel does not mean that you will succeed. Many people if they can be patient have their destinies in their country not outside.
Dubai is a great place for the middle & upper classes who have money. If you are poor, forget it. Also those that do well have good qualifications say in banking, computers & the like. A person with no credible qualifications will not do well. You can't trust the agents especially Nigerian ones.
Even with good qualifications they won't give you a good paying job. Everywhere in the world they don't like our black skin
Sad experience, indeed. But people should travel with detailed knowledge of where they are going to. Dubai-(UAE) is not the US, Canada, UK, Ireland, Australia, Sweden, New Zealand, France, Germany, and many western EU nations.
The Middle East is not your kind of countries to do well professionally if you're not in Engineering or Medicine or some tech field.
Going to Dubai to push your Nigerian music rhythm was a poor decision. Dubai is an infant when it comes to media when compared to heavy weights like L.A.- (the world media capital), or even N.Y., London, or Paris.
.....Dubai is mostly a tourist city. Many Africans must understand that.
This guy only spent six months in Dubai and expected to make serious success. Heck NO, you must try to get used to your new environment for a few years and also get some vocational training education or some locally needed handy or technical skills.
Even those people that travelled to western countries that I mentioned above, still have to spend some good amount of years to get to know their new country before expecting any gain.
He also did not also have serious education completed in Nigeria before travelling abroad.
He did not even try to learn the local language to get better handle of the system there.
He seemed more to me that making quick money abroad was his main driving force. ....A BIG MISTAKE!
Six months in Dubai was really nothing to get you set up.
So, my opinion is that you didn't stay long enough to give a respectable opinion of that city to anyone.
.....
Crap...!all the places you mentioned are also shit holes where racism is manufactured everyone has an experience of every place they go so please spare us the crap 😕
He said that he wanted to raise money for his music he never went for connections
@@Amish07 Exactly, Sophie. LkyHood's take is a mischaracterization of the gentleman's intention.

Lkyhood... God bless u... u couldn't have said it better...
When people abroad send money to the people in Nigeria. You call it small change, you disperse it. That is what three quarters of people living abroad see. That is how hard they work to make that money that they always send to you people there. People abroad work so hard that you cannot believe it. You said you were uncomfortable to work in the farm 😀😀😀 what were you expecting? An office job????
Exactly!
Lol
You seem to have missed the point of his travails
Actually noone wants to give job to Nigerians in Dubai because of Nigerian bad reputation. The scamers give bad name to Nigerians, and therefore it is much more difficult to get decent job abroad.
Well said
So sorry for your bad experience on travelling to UAE. I've never been to Dubai but I have few tips for young people going to a new country they have never been to before.
1, Go to a country that you know someone before.
2, Pls ask important questions like availability of job, type and payment rate.
3, Try securing a job locally through someone there.
4, pls research through more than one person and even hit the internet if you need to.
5, Also don't forget to research about the weather.
6, Pray that God will direct your journey.
I'm saying this because I have a nephew in Dubai and he is doing very well. And the best thing that happened to my life is travelling to UK.
Also ask about the government and their laws, ask about discrimination against black people
@@chinwed.9341 Amen, well said. This is very important more than all that was said.
@@chinwed.9341 Black people are prejudice with their own skin colour

This guy is saying the truth. I have been in UAE (Dubai) 🇦🇪 since July 2019 till tomorrow March 16th 2022 and I'm still living in there. Life here in Dubai is not easy. A lot of us were being deceived by the agents and what we see on social media, pictures and videos that are being edited. I've spent my money on visa many times and now i can't come back home to Nigeria cuz i don't have transport fee and even if i come back home for now i even have any money or where to go. Our president visited Dubai in December 2nd 2021 without saying anything about the way they are treating us instead they went and gave the UAE government a place to build emberssy in Lagos knowing fully well that they are not making visa for us to enable us get job... May Almighty God save and help us in Jesus name 🙏 amen 🙏
Anyhow anyhow you need to come back naija... president no get jurisdiction for Dubai... come back home my broda or sister

Sad situation but Nigerians need to stay home and build there country.
Nope. We need to hold a referendum to revert to who we truly were pre-independence.
I don't get it. Africa has all the opportunities which I see everywhere. It's the absence of understanding and skills which is messing people up.
Welcome back. I feel for the interviewer and his microphone hand.
Lol
Lol
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
He really needs 2 microphones one for him and one for his interviews
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
What kind of a person r u🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This guy is genuine. Always leave numbers incase people want to help.
When we africain will stop seeing greener pasture is other land we will starting to love our Africa and country's you make life by yourself.
Because their leaders are corrupt and corrupt religions. Africa is the only place that doesn't care or look after their own people
I am born in 🇿🇦 and I always told my 2 Burundian friends work here in 🇿🇦 l will never go overseas and travel only in Africa and my family must burying me 1day in Africa and I stay here no matter what
And a lot of our leaders are dum and stupid there's no other way to say it
@@llowellenmorris2456 you are lucky. Not everyone sees green pasture where they are born
One day we the black race will the most respected race on this earth it's been a long road for us. So sorry for your exerience brother 'may the universe hear your cry and bless you so you can bless others 👊👊👊👊
A resounding Ameeen!
Amen, but we have to start by respecting each other first
My young man, God blesses you and your family.
Everything this guy is saying is my exact experience. The agents are heartless and wicked individuals.
The agent are your own people. Not Arabs. You scam each other then you say Arabs are bad
@@Tata-mt7ue Arabs and Indians mostly
@@easygeemusic9467 Arabs Emiraties are not scammers
Mybe from other Arab countries Egyptian,Morocco… etc
Then what do you Africans insist on being around these people,these people do not like you,do not want your services..STAY WHERE YOU ARE..you Africans keep being around people who do not like you..not everything is for money
@@optimisticrealismx5829 It's amazing that they keep lining up, one after another to get scammed and exploited. Wow.
You are the luckiest person, more blessings is coming your way. Please make a songs for the whole world will hear from the horses mouth.
Bro, kindly mentions the guy's name for the sake of others not to fall into the trap...
Nigeria is HELL...everyone is trying to escape there.... it's hard abroad though but many folks just want to leave Nigeria..they are even willing to risk their lives... Nigerians are really suffering... u start a business, the govt will frustrate you till u close shop... no electricity, fuel is gold....
You’re talking out of your ass. Try going to Syria, Yemen, or even Central African Republic before speaking such over inflated nonsense. Get educated, get skills, travel to different parts of the country to work and hustle. Plenty of Nigerians survive just fine. Or go to Kenya, South Africa l, Namibia, Rwanda, Botswana, or Ghana. Stop watching tv and the internet and thinking everywhere that has non black people is going to be paradise. Stop being silly
True talk o I am in Los Angeles moving back home to Sierra Leone 🇸🇱
Come Back home my brother,home is the best
Lots of Africans that goes to Arab countries have this issues I heard it from lots people
Africans are hardheaded, they still won’t accept that Arabs don’t like Africans.
Don't loose hope. God blessed you with a wonderful woman. Cherish her as she is one in a million!
So true Nigeria has money but ur government is corrupt u all need good government watching from Caribbean Dominica great program r
I am Kenyan and the good man is saying the truth. You really have to work hard to get sponsored by a legit company. Problem is our bros and sisters in middle east don't tell us the truth about that place. So when you get there you'll be shocked. Africans are going through hell of a time. Anyway I wish all African brothers and sisters good health and prosperity 🙏🙏
Since you are an Artist, compose a song reflecting the bad experience in U.A.E. so to deter brothers and sisters from traveling to those inhospitable countries.
Great idea - this can be a source of income for you and your family.
My dear friend sorry Dubai is not easy ooooo as me every day and night I cry.if you are not strong, patient you can't make it.
You will be great but first, you must believe in yourself and stay clean. Never allow anyone talked you into "na village thing". Disappointments are in most cases blessing, blessing that will walk you into greatness.
Freedom is not in many countries that what l like in South Africa to their people l admire it gives pride even if u are poor
Point of correction, 1200 dirham is 120,000 naira, not 120 dirham. The guy is sincere though
He actually meant 12 Dirham.
Thank you Brother for sharing your story,thank God for keeping yourself under control and wisdom this is the issue for us blacks all over the globe no matter what tribe, country or who or where your from we are the same we are survivers and strong .This is what non blacks know for this they work to block,use and keep us down so they can stay fortunate.until we all work together as a people no matter who and where your from this will continue to happen to us as black people.remember it was not always like this.this is why we need to work together globally to make life better for all of us.until then this will keep happening.stick together no matter our differences as black people.Bless you bless us peace.
Good woman are not easy to have but thanks to God almighty that you have one and i love how you appreciate your wife for being they for you all this while when you are out there facing hardship God bless your family
My brother you made a right decision at the right time...
I thank God for you
This' a sad story.
Unfortunately there're some countries on this globe that are NOTORIOUS for mishandling individuals due to the color of your skin - particularly black or brown folks/or ethnicity. Particularly {some} Nations to the extreme eastern-side of the African continent.
It's PERTINENT to conduct a comprehensive RESEARCH prior to concluding on a/any decisions to either work in those nations or even take a holiday in those nations. Experiences can/may turn out to be unpleasant & more often than not POST TRAUMATIC!
The manner in which they'd treat {some} of our African leaders {on their official or personal visits} - of course will differ immensely to that of an ordinary African visitor who is not displaying *GLAM* , but rather displaying *DESPAIR* !
Keep safe! Travel safe! Be vigil! 👀
The Lord will hold all of us accountable for the things we do in this life, The wealth, powerful, influential etc think that this is their only life... but they are being deceived by the devil, no one have to believe that doesn't bother me...
There's a heaven and there's a hell, he know some of us think we can use Gods use and abuse people and not answerable to God for our evil wicked diabolical lifestyle, "God judgement is slow but sure."
Romans 14:12 Every one of us have to give an account to Creator God for himself. Revelation 21:8 But the fearfull and unbelieving, the abominable, murderers, whoremongers, sorcerers idolaters (this means anything you put before God, like your money, things not only idols, people worship their cars and mansions, fame, popularity, bodies) shall have their part in the lake which burn with fire and brimstone: which is the second death. Therefore if knowing what God's word said and you still want to be evil and wicked and worshiping things and abuse and defraud humanity to get more wealth... go right ahead and enjoy, but remember you can't take your trikets with you to hell for all eternity

So proud to hear this. Born in the west to Nigerian parents I can say many of us are finding ways to return to Afrika as there is so much hatred and discrimination here. Well done for reconnecting with your truth
Keep UP the excellent work, thank you. ✨
This man story should be an eye opener to other Nigerians who are thinking their country is not good enough for them to leave. Please there is no better place like home. I am writing from abroad, let us all build our country together like other people are building their countries and stop all the negative tendencies and take ownership of our country. A word is enough for a wise.
The way he calls the cucumber 🥒 is very funny. No paradise on this earth. It's all mirages
Wow I can tell tell this guy will make it.. I swear I believe if you are good, good will follow you.. you’re blessed and good days are ahead of you, Don’t give up. You are almost there.🙏🙏🙌🙌
I fill your pain my brother god will make a way for you 💯 🙏
U opened up my eyes. Am from uganda and I thought that all Nigerians are scammers. Thank God u are not a thief
Even if you are not been told , how can a whole country be scammers.
Common sense is common
This is the reality of hustling
Touched by this man’s story. I hope his career, music and life in blossoms soon. I love his demeanor. Keep working hard bro. 1 love
MARRY HER. Stop using her and MARRY her for God's sake!
Then, and only then, when/and if the financial situation improves, offer her a proper (guests and all) ceremony where all your loved ones can join you if that's her wish. Nobody needs to BECOME A FAMOUS RAPPER before they can marry the wife and children they already live with. She is an awesome woman and also an excellent mother. She deserves to be taken seriously. And by the way, that rap was/is terrible! Those lyrics don't help children, who will be fully focused on ''get money', which took you to UAE and take the majority of these people into slavery, mostly out of greed and envy. Create lyrics that will do good, there's an overabundance of trashy lyrics already. That would definitely make you noticed.
Thank you for having the guts to say what a lot of people (and I) were thinking 😊
Yes, the music has been weaponized to destroy black life. Please don't emulate anyone who's bringing death and destruction... That includes African Americans and I am an African American. The music has contributed to devastation to our community... Stay away from it..
🤣🤣🤣🤣💗💗💗
Exactly!
What people fail to understand is that this life of cohabitation brings bad luck at times, who knows if he marries the girl his luck may shine.
This young man is going to become huge in music industry. He has what it takes. Don't forget your, God, yourself, Mom, wife, kids, siblings, etc. Nothing is stopping you. God is going to raise you up by sending you some people to help you with your music. Keep practicing to perfect your music. You are a smart young man. Please don't leave your day job right now if you have one. Don't allow anyone to lie to you in any shape or form. Desperation led you to Middle East please don't let that kinds of desperation lead you to dangerous people both in Nigeria and abroad, bad path, zones, and country. You should thank God for coming home safely and healthy from Middle East. God continues to shower you with his holy blessings.
@Carmen Vance because Carmen I'm an African American women where unfortunately it would have taken someone long before now to have told me this, so here I am 46 year's old going on 50 & I never began to realize the significance of farming & farm land for farmer's that they'd own until I came to Africa because honestly who among ANY OF THE AFRICAN AMERICANS THAT I HAD BEEN AROUND MY WHOLE LIFE DO YOU THINK BOTHERED TO MENTION ANY IF THIS ???All they've ever talked about from what I could remember, was going to college or learning a trade. 🤷🏽♀️ Okay, well guess what I DID ALL THAT & YET IT NEVER BROUGHT ME OWNERSHIP OF ANYTHING but it did bring me massive amounts of debt in courses & traing in a field that I'd never be hired in but hey @ least I helped those schools & their staff pay off auto loans home loans & probably even their student loans for all I know & what I got handed was the bill for it all & that's when I STARTED PACKING BECAUSE I KNEW LIFE WAS NEVER DESTINED TO BE RIGHT FOR ME THERE though I had watched foreigner after foreigner come in & succeede even familymembersfor crying out loud 😭 😭😭😭😭 & how by TAKING SOME OF THE SAME COURSES I HAD TOOK ACTUALLY GETTING HIRED & THEN PROMOTED 😲😲😲😲😲 you know life just isn't fair but 🙏🏽halleluyah all praises to the heavenly father that none of us have ever been stopped from relocating it's what foreigners abroad have done & it's worked for them & 🙌🏽 🙌🏽 🙌🏽 🙌🏽 🙌🏽 ever since coming back to apparently where I've always belonged (Africa) since I am a land owner now & who would have ever thought it could happen for me or believed it 🤣🤣🤣🤣😁 I can say it's worked for me too👍🏼
That’s awesome to hear someone going to Africa and succeeding. Meanwhile we Africans think abroad is everything we here in America doing 5 jobs to make ends meet which is next to impossible due to all the family members back home relying on u. What a waste of time. But some few pple are lucky and make it but I bet u the vast majority regret. The only good thing out the developed countries is that u will always have a job as long as u can work. If u are sick and can’t work then u are doomed. Not even a farm to rely on or family members
If you see what some many Nigerians are facing in the so called abroad many Nigerians will appreciate Nigeria
There is nothing to appreciate about Nigeria
UAE na abroad? Abegi, if u no go North America or Western Europe, or Australia, no be abroad u go
Thanks for having a Change of mind,God will restore you and bless you immeasurably....Forget UAE and abroad for now ,Nigeria is blessed!!!!!!!
Hmmmmm no job in Dubai my brother 🤔? We Africans are the one making life difficult for us in UAE because we don't love yourselves at all. The UAE you are saying that's they are paying 92 AED a month, but everyday Nigerians are going there to make money may God forgive us Africans
Being abroad is no joke. Discrimination, torture and lack of jobs is common.
We should all discard the saying of witches after us from family but keep in mind that success has no straight line. Both in US, Europe and other wester country that are viable in term of job availability, their citizens face same. Dough we carry more load in our shoulder here that usually dragging us down. Keep moving guys and donde stopped trying!
Thank God that you are back in your own country, no place like a home 🏡. It’s shall be wells in Jesus name Amen 🙏
Thank goodness he had the bravery to tell his story of surival in Dubai, so many people would be embarrassed to share their life experience in a foreign country.
Abroad is not for everyone. There are people still in Nigeria nurturing the ambition of travelling abroad still. If Nigeria works for you stay there and if abroad works for you stay there. If you are planning on travelling abroad do it probably and go with skills that will help you obtain employment quickly.
Bro our education is not even anything to ride home about....... you can’t git in so hustling in Nigeria is far better
I am so glad you share this story, because I was planning to relocate to Dubai. I am so sorry about what happened. Usually people pay for their wrongs. God is not someone for them to play with.
Which God?!! 🤔
Run
God isn't real! Except in your head. Imaginary!
@@watchforlife Horus! They think it is only one allegory.
Boss man, trust me it's coming. By now you're already starting to realise that dream and your story will be so beautiful when you finally tell it on the world stage. Such is life, keep the inner strength going, I can see the light for you and it's super bright
What sad stories our Africans brothers, mother's fathers uncles, aunties and sisters are going through in Middle Eastern countries? Please stay home and eat gari, beans, etc.
Loool
You're a good man. God will lift you beyond your imagination.
I can't understand why he trusted that agency a second time. If you don't come home w/money that's akin to slavery.
Guys i saw that in Qatar and Dubai.blacks were treated like slaves
I dont agree with you that if a Nigerian is in another country they would not get help if you all stranded. In my country it doesn't matter who you or where you are we will help. Alot of Nigerians are here in my country. Some own businesses, some are teaches, doctors, nurses, some are illegal etc
Which good country and people is that?
where you from?
Am a somalian who was born and raised in dubai for 18 years, i really feel like there’s a lot of unanswered questions and different scenarios that get thrown out there, ask me anything! Ill try to clear everything up as much as i could.
Is it true even if you're born there they will never give you citizenship?
This is why our people don’t like travelling for greener pastures. Can you imagine this kind of experience.
I been traveling for years and would never come back to the states permanently. It didn't work for him but it works for others.
If I was born in Nigeria 🇳🇬 I would never left my country. Likewise I’m here in the USA 🇺🇸 I will never left my country to work in another man land. It’s not easy. Stay strong 💪 bro. Keep pushing
I don't get your response. Cos you said you were born in Nigeria but you are in US you're very lucky that you're not in dubai you will be singing a different song u can't compare US with any other country period
@@davidalekwe2144 America is not an easy place to live either, you need 2 jobs to make ends meet... You work very very hard, every day on your feet and don't have time to relax or enjoy the fruit of your labor... It's very very expensive place to live.. our economy is not good as you think
That’s dumb. The USA is the richest country on the planet. Most people from around the world move to the US. Not many people migrate to a poorer country for better opportunities
@@davidalekwe2144 Don't be envious. He said if he was born in Nigeria. Not he was was born in Nigeria. Nigeria is known for it's scamming. Most of you deserve to suffer. You'll are believers in god, the irony! Can't you read English? You have a tremendous chip on your shoulder.
In 2020 Feb 6th I travelled to dubai all in the name of greener pasture, though my friend lives there with her husband that was what helped me from been stranded. I started applying for jobs I lost count of jobs I applied not even one call, instead one of the shops in Abu shagara cos that's where my friend and her husband lives I went to drop my cv, the boss wanted to employ me as house maid. My friend and her husband said I should not do house maid job I was getting tired and that was the pandemic period it wasn't easy getting something doing. If not the dubai govt that extended our stay due to the covid 19. Omo I became so tired I was like in the middle of deep blue sea. I came Sept 2020. Them say who no go no know. I did not regret it cos it was in that situation God located me to my husband.
thanks God for everything 🙏💯
You went to Dubai to learn a life lesson that you could never have learned any other way!!! First Borns are known to have certain challenges!!! I think you need to count your blessings to
realize just how blessed you are. You have true love standing by your side, healthy children, and family who love you enough to bail you out!!! A lot of people in the world today don't have that much support
Igbo!! Most of them are scammers. They would do anything to make money. I got scammed by one. Relationship scam. Smh. Scammed their very own. I feel it for you
You deserve to be scammed again and again, you lack common sense.
I am Igbo, I'm 32 and have never scammed anyone in my life...I'm in Dubai for 2 years now working legitimately so don't generalize
I am sorry to hear all your painful experience abroad. I lived abroad myself and I can understand exactly what you went through,
May the Good Lord guide and open doors for all of us .Keep your head up and be positive my brother.
I don’t understand these Nigerians at all. Do they expect life to be a walk in the park. Normal challenges people all over the world go through they want to be pitied for going through it. We need to really own up and be patient with our lives
God bless you 😢🙏👏🏽
Nigerians ARE BLACK. Once you realise this, you will understand this man's story
I really appreciate you. do not think that you are losing money and time, You have gained a lot of experience that is comparable to PHD. In addition, your experience is a great help to many Africans who intend to leave their country and they may stay at home in rich Africa. I wish you good luck in your life and god bless you and your family. much love to you. your story is very touching🙏🏽💕💐
