I hear you bro.

Every Nigerian wants security and peace of mind. Most Nigerians and foreigners enjoyed that even in the North especially Jos, once upon a time.

Any degree was a passport to peace and security especially if you are from the North.

Fast forward, you make a good point. But please admit that Southerners are going through hell, not only because of lack of security. They are going through the worst economic upheaval of our time.

How many Northerners would risk desert and sea to cross over to Europe through Libya?

As for the Op, any crumbs in Germany as a third class immigrant is paradise compared to Nigeria.

At some point, eye go open. Crumbs with indignity become a curse.

It's a nice thing to still see people like you who still believe in the Nigerian dream.
Ultimately, I can't give up on nigeria entirely. But right now, nigeria doesn't have what it takes to make my dreams come through....
The prayer na to make am make we fit live comfortable life without fear of unknown

Many of us agree with you.

Suffering is hard to take. The spirit might be willing but our body is dented. This is why we run from one place to another.

Even if you are comfortable abroad but you are picked up by lawful constituted Authorities and treated as if you are in the hands of bandits or terrorists, you will be glad you have a country like Nigeria to seek solace.

Anyone, even the privileged ones, run out of Nigeria only to return when you are treated like subhuman outside.

At least you can protest and fight at home. Abroad, who born dog?

seunny4lif:
Hmmm
That’s serious oooh
Just plan your move well
There are many EU countries, you can move into.
Poland is good depending on your plan

Brightfab:


Bro can you expand more on what you mean by Poland is good,from what I've read there are few student jobs,the language too is very tough and getting a job too after school. If you can highlight a few things,i will appreciate.

seunny4lif:

Depending on your course of study
IT guys guys get job anywhere

Oloniyan:


We're in the same boat but I'm looking to further in medicinal chemistry

Brightfab:

That's nice, Greatest Chemist!!

Oloniyan:


Bro try and do GRE and aim above 300 then you can search illinois state university or southern illinois university and ball state university. they are generous with funding for chemistry

Brightfab:

Thanks bro for the advice,i actually got my eyes on Germany and Norway, first for the free tuition and secondly availability of renewable energy jobs in both countries. Notwithstanding i will still make research on the above universities you mentioned.

Jacknn:


Lol,see information when DAT guy give u so about you taking GRE and scoring above 300 since you're a chemist grad is "GOLD".. That should be ur main target now even and not this..search GRE on nairaland and see likeminds then you'll be motivated. U can actually get a full tuition waver,with stipends up to 700-800k every month when converted to naira for PHD positions and maybe 400-500k for MSC if given full funding.. They LOVE chemistry grads.

Dollywood:


The white girls wish to date the black guys but they are always scared of their other whites boys who will critize her and the starring she might get while holding hands with a black guy. Even their parents might go against dating Blacks because they don't want any interracial blood in their family because they see it as stains and the white girls who do that are often get discriminated.

Cutestboy:

Yo! Bro

Basalt:


I think You don't have any problem getting Msc admissions.
Though some companies will prefer employing younger and skillful employees.
I'm talking about professional jobs after studies and Msc in most German public universities takes about 3 years or even more to complete

G morning sir,
Ur very right, I agree with everything u said, but can I ask u a question? Do you think is easy for me to just come online and start asking something serious like this, I know we will live in a wicked world where no one is ready to help each other, I totally agree with you, but I trust myself when it comes to trust issues, I I'm completely feed up in life, not everything I can say on here. Maybe if u have a whatsapp no# contact

ahnie:

Geo4646:

One of the things you will notice when you arrive in Germany is that Chicken is so cheap. with only 2.5 Euros, you can buy full frozen chicken at Netto market (my favorite super makt)
2.5 Euro is almost nothing here because a day at work will give you tens of euros. Imagine when you work 4hrs a day even at the rate of 10 euros per hour, that is 40 Euros just within 4hrs in a single day, you see why person wey ever discourage anyone to come Germany for studies is not a good person?

Secondly, from experience, I noticed that Germans are really helpful when you are searching for direction but you really need Google map here, its very important and also sabi how to use Google map because everly you go miss road when you come here new. Google map is your friend here and almost everyone here even the indigenes use it.

For lectures, you have to know thyself and register the courses you can do. Don't register for 10 courses when you no too sabi book or when you spend many hours working otherwise you mess up your grade because courses here (especially science-related are really more complex than what you are used to in Nigeria).
Remember your total G.P target should not be less than 2.5 German grade coupled with your internship and at least B2 language skill to be more employable after your studies.
For me, despite the fact that I am academically above average, I still registered for only two courses and then paid for intensive German class and use the remaining free time for WORK WORK WORK.

I will talk about Sex in Deutschland tomorrow if I am free.
Gute nacht Alle

Hello Nairaland people, I am in a serious dilemma, I am a legally married woman who is based in Nigeria and married to a Nigerian student in Canada, I have been unable to reach him for several months now, no communication whatsoever, his family members are not doing anything regarding the situation on ground, I am really worried on what could be the situation of things over there, he will be done with school in less than 4months. Please what could be wrong? He has promised to call for me soon, so I am surprised I cant reach him for this long. I really want to see my husband. This situation at hand as made me depressed and I have been unable to function. What do I do? Please help!

I almost forgot that I made this ambition public. Sha lemme update you on how far I've gone towards accomplishing my goal....
1. I lost 509k that was in my acc last year to cryptocurrency scammers.
2. A one night stand with a lady I didn't love turned into pregnant
3. I barely get by those days

Bro naija na dream killer sha but the good news is that next year is a long time from now. I'm doubling my hustle plus I have inheritance valued at 2.5m sha my family won't like the idea if I told them that I wanted to sale my property to travel abroad...

I'm not giving up bro. Tho alot of setbacks have befallen me over the past months. I'll touch down europe next year. If 2022 exceed 365days make you know say na because I never touch down europe. It's a sink or swim goal and I'll make it a reality. Thanks for recandling the dream
See you in Berlin ❣️❣️
