I always wondered what people who studied in nigeria and abroad felt about studying in both places. . . . . When I have all my children. . . . . I would prefer them to prolly study primary school level abroad (as they would still be young), however, I've though I would want to send them at secondary age to a very well respected, private school (top notch) in nigeria basically because I feel the discipline side of things would be better. . . . . I dunno. . .someone school me on this issue please. . . .   Grin

I don't blame anyone who wants to study "abroad'. I did it too. Was supposed to spend 6 years in Architecture school (Bachelors + Masters) but bailed after my B.Sc because of the countless strikes and the end was nowhere in sight. Things you need to consider b4 studying "abroad".

1 .You need to define "abroad"!!!,  Once you cross naija border, is it classified as "abroad"? If so, you are on your own.


2.  I can tell you for free that there are some schools in the US and UK that are not worth going to as per the quality of education. A lot of people go there cos they take any Tom, D*** and Harry. If you can find your way there (getting a visa), and you have money to pay the fees, you're all set. All they want is your money. At least you can have an "abroad" certificate abi?

DISCLAIMER NOTE: Please bear in mind that some companies are aware that people just go to anyhow schools just to get that "abroad" certificate so if you go to the University of the "boondocks". Chances are it's not going to win you any special favours.


3.  Unless you really want to, or are trying to escape the ongoing ASUU strikes, Studying some courses "abroad" don't really make a lot of difference. If you are in the Technical/Technological and Medical field, yes, there's a HUGE advantage.


Finally, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, don't for once think that studying "abroad" gives you a free pass to a job in Naija. If you plan on returning to Naija. Get a little experience before coming back to strengthen your skill set and give yourself an advantage or else you are no different than the average Naija graduate. I can tell you again FOR FREE that I know some people who studied "abroad" and are still without work.

It's all down to choice and opportunity. Like someone mentioned, studying overseas doesn't give you an advantage in the Nigerian labour market, and it's a heck of a lot of money to bet on if you've got options here in Nigeria.

If i'm married, have kids, they will not do their primary or secondary education here in the UK, they have to do it in a good school in Nigeria, when they are abt 20 yrs of age or more they can come over here for their University education.
Bring up kids here is hard, the society is not helping it even. I feel for some responsible parents here.

I think it's the family system rather than the UK society.

Studying overseas is good. Nigeria is also another good place to study. Is just that the only big difference b/w 9ja and other country is bribery and corruption which have crave up to the hearts of many nigerian peeps. That's why u can hardly hav a sound education here in nigeria. It's only the rich that have better opportunities than the less privilege ones. As for me, I think studying abroad is better. Smiley
