More worrisome,however, are the losses suffered by the country because of the unbridled zest for migration held by those still within the country who hope that one day they will also migrate. This paper takes a critical look at the situation with special attention to what engineers this zest in young Nigerians, as well as the special problems it creates. It concludes that the Nigerian nation loses a great deal in terms of the contributions that might be made to the development of the state by those young people who wait hopelessly and helplessly for the day their dreams may materialize. It also offers the best ways out of these direstraits for the Nigerian state and other states in this kind of situationProblema, ki ga povzročajo množične težnje mladih Nigerijcev po iskanju boljšega življenja izven dežele, nikakor ne smemo podcenjevati. Še hujše so izgube, ki jih dežela trpi zaradi nebrzdane izselitvene vročice mladih, ki upajo, da se bodo nekega dne lahko izselili. Članek kritično osvetljuje vzroke, ki mlade Nigerijce ženejo v tujino, hkrati pa obravnava tudi probleme,ki izvirajo iz tega gibanja. Zaključuje se z ugotovitvijo, da nigerijska država izgublja družbeni prispevek mladih, ki brez upanja in nemočno čakajo na dan, ko se jim bodo uresničile sanje. Ponuja tudi rešitve tega kritičnega položaja, ki bi jih Nigerija in podobne države lahko s pridom uporabileTEXTznanstveno časopisjejournalsSlovenian National E-content AggregatorNational and University Library of SloveniaInštitut za narodnostna vprašanja
