I've associated and worked with Westerners, so I know that they will respect you if you present yourself well even if you're black

And you're not getting my point either but whatever

Piekna:


It still will not make the average white person know you’re Nigerian because you’re black that’s the point. You’ve obviously never lived abroad so you’re arguing blindly. Peace

Yes, I will soon go to the Western world but I've already associated and worked with Westerners.

If you present yourself well, whites will respect you even if you're black. Period.

Chief, Good day

I'm a Pharmacy student here in Nigeria, and Canada has always been my dream country. I'll like to ask you some questions regarding migrating to Canada. Please can I send you a PM?

Yes, you can

Lol. Go find work? You don't know who you're talking to

You don't have whites who respect you. That's the problem. Keep believing what you want

My mom is late and may my ancestors make them deport you and never allow any country in the west allow you to enter their soil ever again. I won't insult your mom my mom brought me up better. But upon you o lord do I cast this man and his insult upon my mother who is late to bear. May he not ever make it when he gets deported to Nigeria in the mighty name of our lord . Amen

Mainland Europe is the contiguous continent of Europe, excluding its surrounding islands. Yes Spain in my experience is the most blatantly racist country I have ever been to, you can actuallly "feel" the racism in the air.

BTW it is "worse" not "worst"

I stand to be corrected. How could I have made such a mistake.

I never worked in the west. Was a student (4 years in Maryland and 2 years in Edinburgh). In Nigeria my employer has also never owed me ( on my third job now). But I’m aware that some organisations face this challenge but my strategy has been to only work for well established multi-national organisations due to their stability and structure

Because of your certificate

Has nothing to do with that. In software engineering paper certificates don’t get the work done and employers know this. I’ll forever leave grateful to my mentors and who showed me the way. One of them once advised me to turn down an offer which was going to pay me almost three times what I was earning and I didn’t hesitate because his reason was valid.

But why do they call people wey fair well well for Nigeria black in the US? Is it colour blindness or what?


Black is a race, not complexion. So far you're from an African country or you belong to the Black American race, you're a black

Really? And where is your evidence to support that theory?
How have smart Nigerians advanced your country beyond that of “dumb Americans”?

Some of your points are very true.Not all Whites are racist and Whites respect those who demand respect. If a White person who is racist feels that they can intimidate a person then they will because they thrive on the weak and uninformed. People who demand respect are knowledgeable about racial discrimination laws and hate crime legislation and will quickly get a disrespectful or racist White fired if they show blatant racism and disrespect, whether they work at the same company or not.

Interesting perspective. Glad to see someone who gets what I'm saying

I agree though that with hard core racists, it's harder to earn their respect

For me the biggest con is starting afresh. It took me a while to make up my mind because of that about relocating to Canada because of that, but thank God I did. I got my license in about a year and half and now I'm practicing as a pharmacist.

The other issues people complain of are mostly personal. You can overcome loneliness if you are ready to socialize and make new friends.



Weather is bearable, just 2 months of bad weather (depending on province)

Enough with this Billionaires don't leave Nigeria argument.

Billionaires in Togo, Burkina Faso, Guinea-Bissau, Chad, Burundi, Rwanda, Somalia, Haiti tend to mostly live in their country as their money ensures maximum comfort anywhere they choose to live, so this has nothing special to do with Nigeria.

Loneliness. Gush! I hate that thing. Forget the interactions and gatherings of Nigerians and parties that happens once in a while. After that, you are back to your loneliness. Call your friends for an adventure somewhere, some will tell you that they are working. People were really shuttling between jobs to make ends meet. Rat race everywhere.

Racism: I never experienced that in UK. I packaged my self very well, with good sense of dressing. I participated well in the affairs of my parish, Catholic church and made lots of Scottish friends in the Paris that always invited me to their houses for Sunday lunch.
Even while working in a hospital, I got along well with my white colleagues and the chief matron. One volunteered to be picking me up from my place to the hospital. I was the only black person in the hospital.
