At the airport on my departure date , I met this lovely couple Mr and Mrs Morrisons(British nationals) by share coincidence they were also emirgrating to New Zealand to start a new life and business. Just like me the congestion charging scheme introduced by Mr Mayor had taken a toll on their business located within an apt lively street of the city of London.
We got chating right from the begining "very strange" said the husband, " we could not sell our house as most of the propective buyers were in a damn chain" time was running out on them the only choice available to them was to let it out via an agent, the home sale information booklet policy was a constraint. The wife wanted to know what living, working, education, real estate, and vacation was like in N.Z. They had the opportunity and privilege of watching a video clips downloaded from the internet, the children even had the headteacher of their new school speak to them on line personally. In the end, a lot of thier questions were nearly answered via electronic meduim delightfully put together by their host nation. www.viator.com
Finally ,it was time to board the plane, we exchanged pleasantries, as they depart from sight, emotion and a volcano of thoughts rush through my mind, why! why! is it difficult for the Nigerian state's department for information to package a similar electronic medium effective and dependable for tourist and it's citizenry? or could it be that we have one but there is not enough publicity to showcase such? Then suddenly reality dawn on me, that were your hearth is there truly is home, the echo of a quiet claron call becone to me silently in the background our nation Nigerian need help let us come home and help salvage its riuns.
That night the flight home was awesome , the plane crew were unusually friendly and carelessly generous with food and beverages served on board. While some of the passangers on board slowly snore away in thier sleep, the thoughts of living and starting a new life style becloud my mind. I remember the gaze and look of vision on my families faces and it's logical interpretation of the budget in my pocket; brings with it the lonesome thoughts of making new friends and perage a honourary degree (Begin.Again) in Nigerias classroom of life. www.flyer.shoong.com code:41A31. tnx
