Well, not everyone in Canada or the US have that peace of mind. The "peace of mind" and "safety" in these countries can be overrated atimes. You've got gangsterism, racism, police killings, etc. in the US and Canada too...

Conversely, not everyone in Nigeria is having sleepless nights. Many Nigerians have made it from scratch here, who now travel anywhere they wish. We just have to be more pragmatic and less emotional when we think.

with they effcc and police are harassing innocent youths, under reported double digits inflations

would you opt for a job of 250k or a visa to Canada America

Na Visa sure pass oh

250K is not much in today's Nigeria. it's just $500...

Typical naive African mentality will embrace the "messiah," Canada instead. As though it rains money and comfort there. Body go tell you!

as if you de canada you for no talk this rubbish.

Kokaine:
exactly. The first question for me is: visa to America or Canada to do what there? If I can know what I'll be doing, my kids won't learn bad habits or foreign mentality, I won't be racially profiled, then abroad is a better option because of how rotten this system here is. There is no justice in Nigeria that's the biggest problem. And there seems to be no head way out of this mess. Mediocres are everywhere occupying important positions.

The system here is disturbing and poor. That's true. But many of these "developed" countries too don't have it all figured out. Their inadequacies just don't make the news as much as that of Nigeria...

The rich (especially the white) also buy justice there. Racism and racial profiling, gangsterism/thuggery (in the US), poor moral/religious values, etc. are some other issues there.

It's valid to want to relocate to a better system. But the japa frenzy is a little too overrated. Many people talk as though they'll have everything all figured out abroad. They often end up confused and stranded there...

One more thing: not everyone is failing in Nigeria. People do and will still succeed from scratch in Nigeria till Jesus comes. It's all in the mind.

What will you be doing in Canada or US?
Because a visa doesn’t guarantee a job in Canada or America and that’s the hard lesson many immigrants learn when they relocate to these two Countries.

Visa abeg.... breathing fresh air in Canada or US is better than living in a shithole.

damosky12:


Tell that to those who raised you

Baba e gour

Is the Visa to Canada still available?

damosky12:


Don't jump into hasty conclusions bro.

If indeed you ever lived in Canada or the US, you'll know that this japa frenzy is more of a mirage than reality.

250k is small. But it's something for a young man to start from. Many young folks from here have been in and out of Canada with nothing to show. Their mates here who earn lesser have more assets than they do. Speaking from experience bro. We don't have to be emotive all the time.

with Nigeria double digits inflations envys and youths life is endangered here they don't wanna see you progress

Who compared 250k Nigerian naira a month to North American visas in the first place ?

Bad advice. Sapa

Mercychen:
Do you have a ready-made job waiting for you over there?( Canada).

Have you saved up enough to roll by when you get there pending when you get a job?

To me, I'll rather you take the 250 offer and save up enough. There will be more visas in the future; by what time you're fully prepared financially to embark on the trip.

If you decide to go for the Visa offer, try link someone from the many unemployed youth in our midst before going.

You guys should stop profiling Nigeria as if we are in a war zone?
People are still living normal lives in Naija.
Aside from "abroadees" that spend their money in third world countries like Naija, how many of them can live and enjoy lives like people earning 250k in Naija if they should spend their money in the US or Canada?
Yes, 250k is about $500 but is the cost of living the same?

As for the OP, except there is a sure plan of getting a good-paying job between your time of landing and 6months after, better stay back. Don't go and be doing salesman in McDonald all in the name of living abroad.
If you are going there because of your kids or unborn kids, note that with that 250k and a good career progression, you can afford to send your kids there.

Se oun wyne nipple mi ni,

Visa all the way....
My spirit don leave naija tey tey

I make about 350k to 360k monthly in Lagos, Nigeria. It's pretty difficult to save 150k monthly after paying my Tithe. Nigeria is pretty difficult. If I could get into that U.S or Canada and get to work the way I do here, I won't be far from getting more riches.

U.S.A or Canada is too good for an hard-working Nigerian. Shey this one have been consistently making 350k here in Nigeria and am still struggling. For the records,I don't smoke, drink , neither do I flirt. I'm even single.

Anyone that has wisdom that gets Visa to those countries will do well jarie.

What kind of question and comparison is this bayi...

250k? Monthly?

Brother man who abroad epp?

Majority have spoken am go8ng with them

better stay in Nigeria ooo,before tax and fines and cold go finish your career ,have u even thought what job you will meet when u get to Canada ,most Nigeria never know any thing,you think it is the one your boss in Nigeria will be addressing you ,u go vex say u day go hux ,or u go just wake up say u kw day go work ,,,,, people oversea know better

people really need to educate most Nigeria youth ,many are just ignorant ,if I reach abroad I go jam better work ,e no easy ooo,e no easy no let any Facebook status picture deceive you ,bills day to pay ,if the salary I am receiving here ,I had such salary when I day Nigeria ,I for no travel ,na only Vacation I go plan for born my kids for Seychelles or South Africa ,,,,

Nigeria youth are into fraudulent active that is y it's difficult for most Nigeria living oversea to give them business back home to Handel

if there is a good job waiting for me in canada that pays that same 250k or more then i would pick it but if not just give me that money

I would rather go for USA. Chikena

Oduduwa707:
Well, it depends on the type of North American Visa... N250K na like $500 USD na... Haba. My mortgage alone na almost $3K USD monthly (N1.5M)

Is it Immigrant or Non-Immigrant?

Even, if it's Non-Immigrant (Visiting, F-1, etc...), I'll go there and marry to get papers na.

JAPA!

put me on the map � na

Visa is better cause later when u start doing the job u would just get tired of everything then start saving again to get a visa to relocate
