Landers Kwenu!!!!

If you had a good professional job in the UK, that pays at least £27,000 p.a (£2300 per mnth) at entry level, and all other things are fine. Will you give that up for a job in 9ja? Please state reasons for ur choice.

Much appreciated

[s]How much are they paying you for the nigerian job?[/s] What are the benefits included in the job offer

What state will you be going to?

have you got relatives in nigeria?

Have you got accommodation already?

What is the working culture like in the company?

hi,
i sincerely hope u have a job offer in nigeria before coming or better still, apply for a job as an expatriate staff from england. that way, ur paid higher.
dont be fooled, getting a great job in nigeria is not easy ( not yam like we say).
I have worked for 12yrs in nigeria and i am still thinkin of goin to england using hsmp.
it also depends on ur focus. whats ur plans are in 5 yrs u know.
i am beggin u in the name of GOD, dont make a hasty move of comin over except ur sure of what u want.

cheers.

if you wish,if you think the salary is better and much you can leave,
if you think you can cope you can leave.

How come you expect responses when you didn't even give any details that will enable objective comparative analysis?

I advice you to be careful. I am in a similar situation and I am a british citizen ( dual nationality ) earning a basic of £35,000 yearly but with a wife and 2 boys. That about £3000.00 monthly before tax which is quite a lot.

For a single man I will say get a job first, a firm offer and accept nothing less than 450,000 Naira monthly. But for someone like me , a minimum of 800,00 Naira or else nothing because do not forget that you will want to live comfortably back home in a secure environment without any hassle.

I know dozens of Nigerians, a consultant, professionals, entry level graduates, who are yearning to return home but at the right price.

God is able, just think carefully, before you go from frying pan to fire.

Its obvious from the tone of your wordings,you are not ready to giveup your "good professional job" yet.
Perhaps that explains you did not give details of the Job in Nigeria. Is it Professional too? How much? What prospects are there.
Do not forget,home is home. So lets compare apple for apple and take a decision.
Good luck.

@ skillmyman,
HSMP does not gurantee permanent residence. Beware,all that glitters is not gold. Talking from experience Bro.

My guy u better hold unto ur job in the uk.What interests u here in Nigeria apart from the job is the heavy road hold up or the poor power supply or the insecurity of life and property my guy am coming to that side sef not realy because of money but to develop myself and leave a good life.Everything is not all about money but when u re in a right track money must come.My guy please think twice

Bros, my advise be say as all de talk apart from weighing d salary with a Niger wahala pls try no come except incase all fail u can start on ur own with the experience over ther but u know say u need finance but if u gat it come home @ least come and develop ur country (u no tell us weda u b truly Nigizie) my own paspective is learn new thing and come here 2 establish them here . Remember u will always b a 2nd class citizen even if u are a citizen and black. Dont deceive ursef. and anoda point nigeria job is not permanent consider all dis if u gat d money plus ideas and d new job here u can start something even if dem 4**k up, i belif u udastand mi Kanji ko!!!!
