‎From the topic, I am not assuming, but am speaking in terms of financial stability and a better future, that could it be possible to compare someone who earns an income of 60k Naira to be in a better financial position in Nigeria than someone who relocated abroad and earns in foreign currency, but still has more bills and taxes to pay than the one who lives in Naija?

‎I think purely that the answer to my question is based more on the terms of psychology of the individual, than it has to do with economic reasons because, ones knowledge about financial management irrespective of their location outside this country, as long as they migrated to a country with better currency exchange rate as compared to ours, is more developed and has good infrastructures along with access to basic amenities including healthcare and they get paid for their jobs, their financial state is supposed to be better than someone who earns and lives in this country where things are as it shouldn't be and inflation isn't any better but just complicating things, not to talk more of if you earn 60k which isn't even up to the minimum wage of 70k or even NYSC corps salary of about 77k and it still isn't enough to be managed.

This Tinubu aide wey d talk this kind thing, how much is he earning as salary to start with?

If I remember correctly, during the last election, this same man was the one who said all manner of bad things about Tinubu. Look at him now, being among Tinubu's aides. Is it not about the money that he is working for Tinubu? He would have refused to accept Tinubu's job offer and see whether he will continue to live large as he is living now.

To this statement made, I think, this Tinubu aide has received all manner of criticism both online and offline because of this shit he said about. 2027 is around the corner, and we will call an end to this stupid reasoning by these politicians who don't know what the masses are suffering from

‎Can someone earning minimum wage in Nigeria be better off than those who relocated abroad?
Even if all my earnings abroad will go to paying tax and settling bills without having any savings, i would prefer to relocate abroad than staying in Nigeria to earn a minimum wage. Only the security you get abroad is enough, forget about the bills. Someone who is even earning higher in Nigeria will be afraid of insecurity and many influential and high salary earners do hire security personnel. What is life when you live it in fear? i bet you that with the current situation of Nigeria, 90% of the citizens will prefer to move abroad instead of staying in Nigeria to earn minimum wage.

I think I rank among the 90% o because, no matter what Bwala was trying to say, the currency value of the Naira keeps depreciating weekly and if you earn even if it is meager, there's always the responsibility of friends or family that relies on that your small change to survive while yourself is trying to do same, while your landlord is simply looking for ways to increase rent without any respect for the housing laws or any laws at all in the country to guide or protect you who is earning from some minor issues that may be trivial or avoidable in a more developed country.

Nigeria politicians feels that Nigerian lives don’t matter, that is why they come to social media and say such nonsense, how can a presidential aide be comparing a minimum wage of 70k to someone leaving abroad, leave money aside can u compare the welfare of those staying abroad to those staying in Nigeria, even up to security, what about the value of the currency, for now there shouldn’t be any comparison between the minimum wage in Nigeria and that overseas.

This is beyond comparison and it's not even something we should debate upon because every right thinking Nigerian will always choose to travel out of this country if not for anything the security and peace in foreign countries and how they manage their economy and policies to benefit their citizens compare to the sufferings we are facing here in Nigeria so if any opportunities like that springs up someday and I'm aware I will always choose to travel out of this country than staying and be earning #70,000 as salary that can't even buy a basin of Garri and good food in Nigeria.

No one in Nigeria earning #70,000 is better than even a cleaner in abroad even though we understand that there are taxes that they will pay for over there and the value of their currency is greater than ours, what can our minimum wage do for us and the level of insecurity we face, I will always prefer traveling out than staying in Nigeria because the system is not working.

 To be brutally honest not in this life or the next. Our economy is set up currently for the average salary earner to fail and struggle. we simply can compete with someone in a much stable economy even with good financial discipline.77k wouldn't even last the average corp a month, they all complain about this despite it being increased from what is was before simply because the cost of living is going up just as much.
