Relocating To Toronto Canada From Nigeria With Family This Week
Relocating To Toronto Canada From Nigeria With Family This Week
Hello dearies and fans in Nigeria and all over the world, am sad to inform you that am returning to Canada this week.
But why???!!.
Well it is a long struggle.
Ever since I returned from Canada following an attack at our home in Ibadan, my hubby has been pressing me to return to get proper medical attention.
Although I initially rejected his advice but after due consultation with family members and mentors, we have decided to lease out our new house, pack our “bags and baggages” and return to Canada for a while.
For now, I require medical check up every two weeks so doctors can check my stitches and ensure it is healing (the attack was very bad).
Am not surprised I was attacked because this world is full of evil people.
I will be documenting my journey going forward and carry you along.
When I landed in Canada, I will start a Professional YouTube Show (not common channel) to inspire people, teach them unique creative skills and also share my experiences.
So what is next for NaijaGists.com.
NG is here to stay but we will be carrying mainly breaking news, celebrity news and information (how to guides, information ideas).
All our workers will not lose their job as everything will remain the same.
The payroll aspect will be taken care of by my business partner who heads NaijaGists head office in Ikeja, Lagos.
Don’t worry my sweethearts, I will keep in touch.
I will soon invite una to come party with me in Toronto for my upcoming 40th birthday.
I love you all.
Pray with me as I heal and stay strong during this period.
Being alive is indeed a great privilege that most people take for granted.
I saw death face to face but The Great One delivered me.
My husband neutralized one of the robbers while the other one was crushed by a car while trying to flee with the bag he snatched from me.
I believe one day Nigeria will change for the better.

Please take me with you. I have been trying to secure Canada visa for awhile.
Do u know anyone at the embassy
Keep it real
March 12, 2019 at 11:05 PM
my dear Canadian embassy does not run like the Government offices in Nigeria, they keep it real with everyone as long as you have all the requirements to prove you’re genuine.

Too bad u passed through such horrible scene in your mother land.many people abroad who plan to come back and invest withdrew their consideration when bubu rigged himself back to power.expect no improvement until power changes hands.

Your first 3 lines are making sense until you turned it to political rift. You just can’t get over the pain, for fact that Bubu won. Who told you Atiefku would be any better?. And as much as I love young guys to take over power, who guarantee you that can perform well?. They never tasted power. What if they get there, taste power and get intoxicated by power?. You just be Igbo nigga. Your entire states is proPDP
Take heart

The sad things about this news is you were attacked at your home in Nigeria, wounded and was receiving treatment from far away Canada,your second home probably.
It’s obvious your hubby may have access to some privy info about 9ja in general and this is an attestation that Nigeria is irredeemable,it bleeds my heart, and imagine millions who don’t have any other choice, his pressure for you to be out is because Nigeria may explode very soon and keeping his family safe is his priority.
I wish you journey mercy and quick recovery, you will be in better place to be updating us regularly.

You supported this government and brought Buhari back to power, now you are running away to Canada under the guise of medical care, why don’t you stay here and enjoy the Buhari government you earnestly campaigned for. There are good hospitals that can take care of your stitches in Nigeria
Naija Gists
March 13, 2019 at 4:49 AM
Thanks for making your point known @Amy. I have never campaigned for any politician and will never do. I’m not running away to Canada under any guise. I relocated to Nigeria from Canada years ago so get your fact right. It is my right to live anywhere I choose to, you have no right to tell me what to do.

Amy to hell with your insensitive comment. Someone stabbed or robbed by robbers is travelling abroad for post surgery check up and you are here accusing her of supporting politicians. You are so nasty and disgusting.
If I am the owner of this site, I will block bot-head like you.
I have been reading sympathy messages from many until I say ur attack comment.
Foolish Amy Go to hell.

Thanks for the suggestion @Francesca Adjoa. It is a platform for freedom of expression but if a commentator goes too far, we do remove such. All her comments from henceforth will be flagged for review.

My sweetheart, I have been following your blog since 2012 and there is never a day I never learn one thing or the other. Nigeria is not a place for people like you. You are better off in western world. I hope you get your stay in Canada soon. Stay safe and don’t mingle with many Nigerians. Don’t let them know your immigration status, they may report you to the immigration themselves. Pls be wise as you embark on this journey.
Love from Australia

I visit this site daily, can we have a prove that she campaigned for any politician? Common get well soon is difficult for you to say but you can point an accusing fingers. Even at that, she owes you or no one an explanation to dat…..stop making your assumption look real.

If law enforcement are upright, they will get it done. Unfortunately bcus politicians love police to be corrupt so as to get their ways, is the reason they dont care. Politicians should not control law enforcement. WHats stopping them from reforming police academy?. They travel to western world and they know how things work. But corruption won’t let them.
This Is not a president responsibilities alone. He needs congress for his decision to be meaningful. I wish we are still in the military era. This crap would stop

Everywhere is as unsafe as they could be safe. Although, we are responsible for our own safety in Nigeria, as that is what the country has been reduced to. May God keep you where you are going too. Sorry for what you had to go through but I will suggest you keep your private affairs off your blog. You never know who is who

Thank God for your life and your family. Infact, you have made the best decision as regards to your relocation to a sane society. The last time I visited Nigeria, the daredevil bandits tried to do the same thing but they did not realize I have left already, they thought I was still around, they came with Okada and attacked my brother instead, they robbed him of little money he had. I was their target but God miraculously saved me out of this tragic and I thank God my brother was not killed in the process.
Nigeria insecurity has reached pandemic. Unless if one has already signed his death warrant. Most of these set up came from the people who are more closer to you. Having said this, the question is, is there anything we and/or our Government can do to put an end to this nightmare? that is if we really have any. It is heart broken to realize that now I’m more safer to visit Ghana on vacation instead of going to my ancestral home. It is even more sad that Ghana is secured than Nigeria in terms of security.

Wherever that is peace is someone’s home. The current clime of our beloved nation is not friendly for anyone but people with alternate place of domicile aside Nigeria should never be blamed. We shall continue to pray for you and for those of us still in the country, God will show us favour and mercy. Let us all pray for Nigeria no matter where we are. God will surely turn things around for good very sson.
God bless and keep you and your family. Stay safe and stay blessed!
