Before listing the top 10 countries to migrate to, I’d take you back 4 years ago. I was possessed with an “abroad” spirit. It was certainly not the kind that would drive me into the desert or make me jump into an inflatable boat with fellow “desperadoes”. It wasn’t that freakish and I also can’t swim. I just had an intense desire to migrate to a different country; preferably a developed one. I needed a new experience in a new environment. So I decided to move to Scotland. Time won’t permit me to explain the criterion for my choice. I did the necessary paper work, got my visa and left for Aberdeen, Scotland via Paris.

The flight to Paris was extremely turbulent, to make matters worse, I was sitting at the tail end of the craft. The lady beside me was going berserk, crying her eyes out. The strong turbulence kept slamming her head on the passenger seat in front of her. She was almost peeling her hair out and was very convinced we were all going to die! Meanwhile, I was as cool as a house mouse. Baffled, she looked at me and asked in a British accent “aren’t you scared?” I looked at her and thought to myself “what is wrong with this woman? Doesn’t she know I’m going to the land flowing with milk and honey” So I replied “no madam”. I guess my strong desire to emigrate made me immune to fear. I’d write about my experience in Scotland in another post.

Migrating to another country is a major decision with far reaching effects. I know a lot of people (especially IT professionals) think there’s a greener pasture out there. This is not far from the truth. A number of countries provide better opportunities and also a higher standard of living. However, only a few are immigration friendly. When it comes to migrating, you must do your due diligence to determine which destination offers the best opportunities. You should consider career opportunities, remuneration, security and quality of life etc. I did some research and came up with the top 10 countries to migrate for IT professionals.

Well said

Web development jobs can be done any where in the world. All you need is a laptop and access to the net

Stay and help make your country better be part of the solution instead of going to places that don't really appreciate you as a Nigerian

Trust me when I tell you that even in these so called greener pasture countries people are migrating themselves in their hundreds of thousands to other locations around the world

Man will never be satified with what he has.

I've always been an advocate for "staying in your country" because I've been around a bit and I know what's up to a large extent. However a few of my friends/colleagues are hell bent on going abroad, so I thought I could make some suggestions for the people that fall into this category. Employment for IT jobs in the UK has different faces. To some, it's difficult, to others its easy depending on your area of expertise, effort and preparedness. Given the disappointing feedback I got from my associates in the UK, I was tempted to exclude it from my list. However, I also could not ignore the positive experiences of a larger number of friends and classmates who were lucky.

Funny the topic is the UK. Of all the places in the world they like Nigerians there the least.

I lived among them for a few years so I know

Despite the fact that our brothers are not making things any easier for us in terms of the public perception of Nigerians, racism is still an issue in the UK. I remember back in Aberdeen, sometimes when you get on a bus alone and take a seat leaving a vacant one beside you. Some white folks would rather stand in the absence of any other vacant sit than sit beside you.

On the other hand I also met some really nice Brits. I met one at the store who was trying to speak Igbo to me. He told me about his fun times in Lagos and how some of his Igbo friends introduced him to "wayo" and that he made a lot of "Ego". They were all working with SNEPCO. His wife was standing there looking at us wondering what the heck we were talking about.
