Everyone leaves Nigeria because it is a failed country .If a country's court is not cleansed no one is safe there

If everyone leaves Nigeria, who will mend it?
About 40% of Nigerian emigrants constitute nuisances abroad.

You can do the thinking for me. Acting like you know me. You have succeeded in making yourself known, now I know your location is Scotland. Can you leave me to my opinion now?

I know that you cannot think

And that is not an opinion.

What have those in Nigeria mended?

Where did you get your statistics from?

not many people earn that kind of money ( not even pharmacist or engineers in their early careers.

So right

I would rather be in Nigeria than live in UK.

The only country in the world is USA.

This can't affect me as I earn over a million pounds monthly in the UK

your own nå special case. You'll be made a citizen, adviser to Queen Eli, and an additional £3m go dey enter your account every minute.

not only naija. its applicable to all non EU

This news is a very sad one... What are our ambassadors doing

bankybobo11:


Oh yeah? The US is completely devoid of racial prejudices? Tell me more please. You think blacks are handled the same way the whites are being handled? You probably have never been harassed by people who automatically think you're drug dealer cos of the colour of your skin. BTW, I said abroad, I didn't particularise America. Common be reasonable with me.

Please don't waste your time or energy arguing with him, his type is the reason why blacks cannot seem to find their footing in today's society. To imagine a black man like me living in the U.S. Society and ascribes to the stuff his posting is nothing short of disheartening. To even think he talked about voting, and thanks to the key parts of the VRA that was struck out by the Supreme Court in 2013 I believe, blacks and minorities are disenfranchised in voting. I don't argue with his kind of person because it takes a whole lot for them to see facts even if it slaps them a million times.

He does not owe you shishi

If you want money, go and ask your parents

What if it's community contributions that took him to where he is now?

nairaman66:
I say screw the uk.., it's just a glorified Lagos! This will actually affect their IGR since most skilled workforce are not from the UK.

You will be suprised at how many Nigerians earn above £35k

Please ask the gods. I'm not interested in replying you cos I can't come to understand why you'll be asking questions from a fellow who can't think.

Nope, you're wrong. I can, I choose not to!

You won't have come up with such ridiculous reasons if you had used your medulla oblongata

Stupid post. The law is not specifically targeted at Nigerians. Some ignoramus are already celebrating.

I can't complain. It is a nice way of removing "deadwood". Although it incorrectly assumes a tight correlation exists between wages, proficiency and career progression. Some professionals aren't paid that much at any time and they're not useless, eg teachers.

GurlFriend:
Nigerians, from next month, non-EU migrants in the UK earning less than £35,000 will be deported.

The new Home Office policy, which comes into force on April 6, applies to all overseas workers who have been in the UK for five years on a Tier 2 visa.

If they can’t prove that they’re earning more than £35,000, they will be denied settlement and will face deportation.

Teachers, IT professionals and journalists could all be badly affected.

A petition launched at the beginning of the year called for the threshold to be reconsidered – it gathered more than 100,000 signatures and was debated in parliament last week.

So what’s actually changing?

To settle in the UK as a skilled worker, non-EU migrants need to have a Tier 2 visa. For this you need:

An offer for a job in the UK that pays at least £20,800
Have had at least £945 in your bank account for 90 days
A certificate of sponsorship from your employer (which can cost between £536 and £1,476)
To pay a £200 annual healthcare surcharge
To prove your English language proficiency


After five years on this visa, skilled workers are able to apply for ‘indefinite leave to remain’ – and this is what is about to change.

From April, anyone applying for indefinite leave to remain will need to earn at least £35,000.

Nurses are temporarily exempt from this threshold, along with PhD-level jobs and any professions that have been on the official ‘shortage occupation list’ while the person has been living here.

However, the earnings threshold could be applied to migrant nurses in the future.

Teachers aren’t exempt (unless they are professors in certain disciplines). Even David Cameron’s mum has lost her job because of Tory cuts

In fact, the Home Office’s own analysis of the policy in 2012 revealed that the new threshold would have a significant impact on teachers, IT professionals and marketing managers.

What if I’ve been in the UK for more than five years?
Then you won’t be deported – the new rule doesn’t apply to anyone who entered the country on a Tier 2 visa on or before April 5 2011.

I’ve been here for a decade, will I be deported?
No – as long as you’ve been living here for 10 continuous years, you can apply for indefinite leave to remain with no salary threshold.

So if you came here in 2006 as a student visa, then moved directly onto a skilled workers’ visa, you can apply to settle here regardless of how much you earn.

The only condition is that you can’t have left the UK for more than 180 days at a time, or 540 days in total.

I’m here on a marriage visa, will I have to leave?

No, the changes only apply to people on a Tier 2 visa.

Bros I might not really know you in person but believe me the blood of an african is the toughest and anywhere you go you are and will always be a NIGERIAN.

Its all about TIME you will get used to it. You can always get adapted to any situation, why? Because you are a NIGERIAN

and that's the issue bruv ..we have endured too much and that's why Nigeria is the way it is , we have put up with so much junk or bad governance ...I refuse to adapt to bad governance
