Good day,
Please i want to ask if it’s advisable to leave my job with federal government parastatal with monthly pay of a little above 200,000 and pursue Canada relocation (PR)using the federal skill worker program.
I am not married.
Please i need honest advice.

If you marry, a salary of a little above 200k won't keep you comfortable. My take: please pursue the Canada option if feasible. Thanks.

Runu o

All the best

People earning 900k to 1m have left . You are talking about to 200k

Don't even think am twice, pls run and go

An adult need atleast 250k a month to maintain a decent standard of living in todays Nigeria. If you have your way, leave now! THE EARLIER THE BETTER.

Thanks everyone. I appreciate your opinions

Leave Naija

How do you intend to survive in Canada? What's your plan?

To get a job hopefully after settling down because i have a degree and ANAN certification. Might be rough in the beginning but hope it will be worth the risk and stress.

Before you leave, ask yourself: what skills do you have that can help you make the transition?

My accommodation where I am is $900 a month. You know for sure that there is no kind of money I will make in Nigeria to support such a lifestyle. You have to make money from foreign sources in foreign currency to live abroad comfortably.

I would advise you to pick up a freelance skill and pursue the relocation. Trust me, there are opportunities. Even my LinkedIn interface is showing jobs that never showed up when I was in Naija. There are opportunities you can never know existed. Wifey who is into digital marketing landed a job the very week we left quarantine.

That's cool...but be mindful of canada job market perspective against foreign certification
