Or maybe the Nigerian government should invest in infrastructure, education and support native local businesses to deterred it's citizen to immigrate
Ricardo Guanipa it corruptions is and why the upcoming elections are so important
@etos butch thanks I believe that instead of so many young African men risking their live to end Refugees/asylum homes or even worst sleeping in the streets maybe a selected group of Europeans or north Americans or maybe (maybe even decendant of African Migrants in West) with Usefull technical and entrepreneurial skills should go to Africa and spread that knowledge some villages just need a water filtration system and a solar panel to increase their living standards
I agree similar to whats going on in central america or any place in the world where the government has failed its people or only care about the elites... a majority of these countries have two issues in common corruption or failed economic practices where the youth flee to another country, because there is no job opportunities
Maybe european enterprises and government should stop exploiting nigerian wealth and people and mind their own business.
Agreed. At the very least when it signs an agreement with China for them to build billions of dollars worth of infrastructure projects they should be insisting that the Chinese run projects train and employ Nigerians in skilled trades. As it is, the Chinese projects import their workers from China, and not just any workers, their workers are serving sentences handed down by the Chinese criminal justice courts. When the project is completed the Chinese workers go home, the Nigerians have their new piece of infrastructure, huge debts, no skilled workforce, and when they default on the debt the Chinese return to seize the collateral (mineral resources and land) offered when the deals were first made.
Because most of them are here already.
190 million people living in Nigeria...
Be careful, somebody who lacks a sense of humour might brand you a raycist.
Ah man, not going to lie, that made me spill my drink. Brilliant lol
@@George-sc4yh But i am raycist, i hate all people called Ray.
@@miamidolphinsfan Both...really. Excellent observations daring.
The people of Africa should build their own countries, instead of fleeing to developed foreign nations on another continent.
Tell USA and European countries to leave Africa. Europe has no oil wells, no Cocoa farms etc but they have the biggest oil companies where do you think they get it from, all cocoa is grown in West Africa but Europe killed the west Africa chocolate factories tell them all to stay away if you can't you have no moral ground to say s#!+
@@Biobele No one fukin cares ur desert continent.
@@Wiktorino1984 Then why did you click on the video?
@@Biobele cocoa isn't endemic of Africa. Cocoa is from the Americas. European brought cocoa, tomatoes, potatoes, corn, etc etc to Africa and around the world. Which all those mentioned and many more are from the Americas. Not Africa. Get your fact straight.
There is no such thing as a "Developed Nation" it is as real as santa clause, the Easter bunny or Allah
awwwww, the poor BBC must be sad with this news.
They're reporting it as an issue instead of a celebration
Excellent news, we don't want them this issue was the core of Brexit.
Steve Williams then tell ur thiefs not to come to africa .Armrobbers .white puppets.
Good to know. Stay home !

The crime rate will go down.
@@Hispandinavian and there are no criminals in your country except migrants?
They are dropping as a result of 2 things. Matteo Salvini who many in all Mediterranean countries are very grateful for is turning down these economic migrants and the NGOs thereby leading to a large fall which I and many in Europe are grateful for. Then there is Libya, in which in spite of the evil that is slavery, it is scaring the life out of these economic migrants who are so scared of being captive that they rather stay home in Nigeria.
Damn.. wish I could simply go to another country and live off their welfare system, wouldn't that be nice 😎
Hahaha 🤣 I’m Nigeria and I have job and I pay taxes 🤧 it’s so nice to finally see what you white people think of us after being here for my whole life
@@comicbookgirl_2072 Your a legal migrant causing no problems to our state. Where as illegals just drain so many resources.
U shud
Have a go mate!
Your ancestors did that. Went to other countries and take the resources while local people starved.
Now Africans are going to Europe and you are paying for them. It's basically karma.
This is a sign, a sign that there is no great replacement it's just a migration pattern like euros to America, arabs to Latin America, and Greeks to Australia
My grandparents came from Nigeria to the uk legally, I don’t like it when people do it illegally
Send them ALL back, every last one with a packed lunch
If Mexico is paying for the lunch then I'm all for it.
😂😂😂😂😂😂

@@Mxmx-io9lx ok but no sauce
So at this your age you are still foolish
Because of Brexit they won't be able to come to the UK and most are already here
@Mind Freshener What are you on about you crack head
Excellent! The fewer the better.
Because we don't want them
Unfortunately, this is not the case.
In ww2 u all migrated, so calm down. The reality is you or anyone don't own land. The earth is free for all so piss off
Sharap your mouth
@stray dog7 the days maybe gone for you but not everyone else. NHS and other services have appalling financial management, that why its pushing to breaking point. There is a huge difference to say we are struggling too than "we don't want you" I hate anyone who treats migrants rudely like the original comment.
@@alphadragon7645 we don't want them, we only want those who will intergrate and contribute, not segregate themselves and leech off the state
They are dropping because the Italians have had a bout of common sense.
Why can’t they migrate in wealthier African countries??
Is unemployment affecting those areas alone? Why are other parts of the country not this involved.
The article is in Italian. Currently the Italian and Belgian law have put the two oil multinationals on trial. The first time it happens.
Also give Credit to the 🇳🇬 Nigerian Government under President Muhammadu Buhari's administration for the reduced number in immigration, it has also advocated programs to bring back Nigerians stranded in Libya and raised awareness on the disadvantages and dangers Nigerian immigrants face to discourage this illegal journey's .
Why would you leave Africa? THE Continent with the most ecomic potential growth over the incoming decades....Soils and lands rich in EVERYTHING. #EXPORTSANDWEALTH
So Edo and Delta States are the only states with unemployment rate in Nigeria...search for better reasons...
Ambrose Olowo build more job opportunities in port harcourt and Lagos and problem solved
Naijan Christian
We need jobs beyond even Lagos and Port Harcourt. The point I made is that unemployment is a national problem and not limited to Edo and Delta States, so it can be a reason why this menace is predominantly recurrent in the two states alone
Still too many.
The real reason less migrants cross the Mediterranean sea to Italy is because, since 2018 italian interior minister Salvine closed italian ports to ilegal migrants, As a result, also migrants' deaths in the sea decreased. Since august 2019 Salvini and his party are in the italian government no more and ports have been opened again, and as a result, the number of illegal migrants landing in Italy is skyrocketing again.
Immigrant landings in Italy from january 1st to august 23rd:
2017: 98076
2018: 19526
2019: 4722
*Capitano Salvini* our hereo!💪🇮🇹
Because life ain't so rosie here is it
When invaders cry about being invaded. 🍿
Invade them more!
Hahaha 😂
when the invaded...were unable to stop the invader....now seeking to serve karma...until those now being invaded..turn to the sword...
LOL
Comic Book Guy stupid and uneducated comment !!
They should Credit the Nigerian reducing illegal immigration
They’ll follow where the wind leads them.
The number greatly reduced because the Oba of Benin has placed a curse on traffickers and they are afraid and no longer trafficking our brother and sisters into slavery. Oba gha to kpere, Isee!
You have figures but not the reason for migration from those parts of nigeria. Reasons are far from what you said - it's a mentality.
Go through Chad lmao. Europe’s gonna end up being in all of Africa.
What is the fertility rate of Nigerians. When one person migrates, is he quickly replaced by another baby?
In the hope of a better tomorrow!
Good.
Comment section is scary.
Sad to see people taking out their frustration on these poor migrants...
Well, poor is the appropriate word. People are more than frustrated, they are pissed off. A min wage earner in the UK pays £13.11 a week in tax. They cost the UK tax payers £14,500 on average a year, and that excludes big costs like pensions.
People are pissed off because they have no right of consent. If they don't fund the migrants the state will ultimately use violence to take their money to give to the migrant.
So why shouldn't people have a right of consent? They can say no, you can say yes, but you have to hand over your cash.
@Chief Sunnah I want more migrants. There are however 3 conditions. Very simple ones.
1. No criminals.
If you have a criminal record you can't come, if you commit a crime here you are deported. Very simple.
2. No discrimination
Doesn't matter if you are Nigerian, EU, black white, yellow brown, ... gay straight, religious or not, .... All irrelevant
3. Net contributors only
You have to pay more tax than you cost in state services to get your annual residency permit.
Those mean you have to speak English, you have to integrate, others know you are a benefit.
That's a proper migration system.
@Chief Sunnah If they pay more tax than they cost, they are a benefit. They get a residency permit, so long as that is met.
Where it goes wrong is when they cost others.
@Chief Sunnah Then you are stupid. That net contributor means that they have to integrate, they have to bring a lot to the table. You will get migrants who come here for the culture, the heritage.
You won't get those who come, refuse or can't integrate and demand vast amounts from others.
But in general, I see a compromise. You don't give you consent, so you have to pay extra taxes to cover your services. After all you don't want free money from 'foreigners'.
@Chief Sunnah They can't come here for state benefits if they have to pay 12K [each] in tax every year. That's one of the conditions for coming. Paid a year in advance. That's a minimum tax. If they earn more they pay more tax.
So why would they pay more tax? Very simple they can't come, they are kicked out for tax evasion if they don't.
Do read what I wrote, not project your views onto others.
Like this should be a concern.
Italy is NOT taking this shit anymore.....Hungary...too.
Good
St Peter is not gonna like some of these comments
There all already here
Nigerians have alot of black magic in their country
And your point is what? So does Italy Ireland and other country duh.
The so called JuJu was used to force young Nigerian women into prostitution in Italy after luring them in that country with fake jobs opportunities.
Kami Tenchi realising that Europe is slowly turning atheist and pagan I don’t see what wrong with black magic more than people saying God is fake
European countries should invest in Africa so that their economy improves faster and they don't feel the need to migrate anymore.
Yes there will always be idiots who think the grass is greener on the other side but the number is surely to decrease.
buahahaha! We create own civilizations when they still eats housefly's. Serious they live in pits after 5000 years.
@@Wiktorino1984 yeah after you exploited and stole their natural resources to build yours...they didn't know then,now they know ...they want ALL that back..and they will invade you guys till the last drop 😂👌🏽 this is just the beginning

their performance, in up to the minute in blond dyed hair, which has fast become
the new standard for on-screen female television news anchoring, don’t ever tune

certainly will regret the time spent and consider yourself having been cheated…and not been given your
full dose of on-screen fakery, and you’d be wise to fact check their reporting,
thinking it might be bias for ratings like their appearance is most certainly
