People talk about all the benefits they gain from the civilized countries they have emigrated at as a justification for the high level of taxation they are forced to meet up with.

In almost the same breath they adamantly oppose any form of application of anything approaching
even a fraction of whatever they pay abroad

How do you think those countries became developed?

Did they receive manna from heaven?

You speak of unemployment benefits, maternity and other paid leave, free Healthcare and education, and other benefits which you went abroad to
sponge off like a parasite

But rather than fight for your country to attain the same levels of development, you rather insist on the primacy of mediocrity by your primary insistence on civic irresponsibility

You rail against taxation in Nigeria but empty your earnings with
nary a whimper in your overseas refuge

Your only avenue to voice out your frustration is on Nigerian social media

Even when values you're against are flaunted in your face you dare not utter dissent for fear of being yanked on the next flight back to the home you love to hate
