This makes a lot of sense

Hmmm

Omo. Every SW state featured in the top 10 sha (na dem occupy 60% of the list). Was expecting the SE states to dominate the list though, considering the perception about being the 'most travelled' and all that. Edo na worthy mention. This list don demystify some preconceived notions. Respect to Nigerians overseas wey no forget the homeland.

Developers

Audio remittance.

The south doing the most as usual

Edo to the rescue

International Ashawo remittance plenty

Noted.

Without any sense of prejudice, I can categorically tell you that the Edo remittances come from the practitioners of the oldest trade in the world.

It comes from the sisters in Italy, Spain, United States and all over the world 'hustling' with their kpekus

lol so Edo people even send money bak home our online chestbeater brothers....

So the stereotype about Edo state is true

Cool

Our edo people de outside well.... Them de try

Wow!

Omoluabi to the world!

Many Nigerians still have mouth to be shouting Atiku and Tinubu up and down due to international remittances. Suffer never tire them

Audio remittance.

Is this jealousy or what?

Must you people fight over this ...the question should be the part of the country that take out with no bringing in.....the are nowhere to be found here

Moment I saw the heading, I suspected Edo state was going to top the list.

Their hoes in Italy have been very consistent in sending monies to their Nigerian families in the last decade. So this comes as no surprise. At least Edo is generating forex with coitus.

Worth commending!

I dont believe this list, no tribe travel reach South East.

This is Apc propaganda


How about the Notherners in Singapore

We know what it is. You know why Edo is high up there. We know why you have mostly southern states. Do you by chance know anyone called hushpuppy?

Most Southeast guys don't send money directly to their parents or relatives in Nigeria, they sell the hard currencies to their Igbo friends and relatives into importation and they use it to pay for goods abroad instead of sending directly, so most Igbo Diaspora remittances return back to Nigeria as goods...while the importers send naira to their relatives. This is one major reason FOREX outflow restriction by CBN under Buhari govt. didn't affect Igbo importers and other Nigerian importers who know how to connect to Igbos abroad.


Lastly, a lot of Igbo guys abroad are dissatisfied with Nigeria's current situation under APC/Buhari and many have stopped investing back home, another reason for low remittance from Igbos abroad.



The whole world know that Igbos make up the highest population of Nigerians living abroad, even in strange countries you have never heard before except maybe online lol, you too know this.

Not jealous but all this doesn't add to the improvement of the nation.
