Good afternoon , I would like to know more about family visa ( in this case for someone who has an Uncle in the Uk) , what are the steps to take, and the fees to pay. Thank you @justwise

There is non, only if you want to visit the uncle, then you can apply for visiting visa but to move here permanently through your uncle is almost impossible.

I promised to give pointers about tech occupations. Of course there are the core tech occupations like infrastructure manager, network architects, technical architects, developers (either front or backend), automation testing or even some data professions (these require sql, python, r and some familiarity with tableau, power bi, etc). As for manual testing, if you have experience with software and/or UX experience, you may easily become a manual tester (pays well).

I am not a pro in the above so I will leave it to the professionals to speak of. Out of all the above tech occupations, the easiest and most pragmatic to get into would be security manager (which requires little to no code, as your infrastructure staff would do the needed to help you) but security requires vast experience in the tech industry (that’s why I pity people with no experience reading cyber security).
Anyway the good news is, there are some professions that you can crack easily, these are:

Scrum master-- if you are a manager, cheerleader and teacher, you can do a scrum master course on scrum.org, watch looooads of scrum or agile videos on YT and go on some other agile courses to become a scrum master—m but prepare to start as a junior if you have never had the role before.

Product owner-- again read up about it, make sure you do your certification on scrum.org, then whatever industry you apply to, make sure it is an industry you have worked in very well because POs always need the experience to make good decisions.

Delivery manager—if you have worked as a Project manager before, just learn about agile (again scrum.org and many agile videos, change your mindset (no more controlled environment, you philosophy must be to fail fast) and then you can convert your title to DM- they pay well.
Business analyst, these are pretty popular, just make sure you have some certs and you have experience in the industry you want to work in. You can learn about BA in BCS or IIBA- pays well.

Product manager-- my favourite, well just be experienced in the product and have good enough experience in being a BA, DM or PO. You must be familiar with agile and product development life cycle.

Take these jobs, go on indeed, look up the jobs, then try and acquired whatever skill the jobs require within the next 4 months. Tune your cv to reflect the job spec, practice well so you have speak eloquently during your interview. You can also convert your job as an accountant, finance analyst etc to the above jobs, but you have to be smart about it.

There are still a lot of opportunities in Nigeria but the only problem is that it doesn’t have an enabling environment for starters.

Days are gone when people struggle to build wealth in Nigeria and get to the apex of wealth.
Today it’s either you have money to start big or nothing for you.
I’m a business consultant in the tech industry and I can tell you investment here is not a waste, if you have fund to push.

I have worked for a few gaming companies in Nigeria and I can tell you that they are cashing out billions monthly.

Recently an Indian company launched a gaming platform in Nigeria I was to work with them tho it didn’t work out and they are already doing good figures.

I had another call from another lady who wants to push an Eco e-commerce market place in Nigeria.

A current organization I consulted for in the Agri-tech space has the largest maize farm in Africa just between 3 years now and doing well even tho he is having issues with his investors but there is money in Nigeria you only need big money to make the money.

If there is nothing people won’t be struggling to come and invest here.

I feel we need to understand the meaning of investment and what kind of investment and also the returns.

Why is Obi Cubana investing in real estate in Nigeria why not UK.
Have money and make money from here even at proxy.


You were doing so well until you mentioned Obi cubana..smh

Hi everyone.

I really need to get the UK driving license soon.... Major issue now is I need to travel in a couple of weeks and if I apply for a provisional now (my BRP will likely not get back to me in good time.

The best way is the only way - check to see if you satisfy the requirements, apply online, do the biometrics and photo-taking, and see whether you get it or not.
Before you do that, verify whether Germany is open to tourist travel in the first place. As at mid October it was not.

You could go to spain first ( I know someone that just got his) schengen visa takes you into most EU countries. Use this website https://uk.blsspainvisa.com/london/ if you pay premium, they will come to your house to do your biometrics
