One of the major reasons I want to relocate to Nairobi is because of Better electricity, i heard it's constant, their culture is very interesting to me, the matatu buses, their food. Actually the main reason is just electricity, and new environment.

However I don't have any friends in Kenya, I can lodge in a hotel for at least 7 days if I get there while I look for a house and pay for it immediately. Please if you're in Nairobi or Kenya, please give me some. feedbacks.

How is electricity? How much is rent? What is the minimum wage in Kenya, I earn in Dollars, I am a successful freelancer.

How much does Visa cost?

What are the things I need to know?

Are the women sweet and sexy too?

cutieme:

Bro can you teach one a bit of freelancing ?

obiekunie01:
but seriously ba?

WHY IS IT ONLY NIGERIANS THAT RUN TO OTHER COUNTRY TO HUSTLE?

I have never seen a kenyan, zambian, Zimbabweans, south-africans, etc hustling in Nigeria.

SHAMELESS POLITICIANS!

Victoronah1:
bro, it's bad abeg. I work online, with a company, I have been suffering, from very low internet speed to lack of electricity, sometimes I will be in the middle of an interview and Boom black out. Chaiii. I've lost contract because of electricity, fuel go finish before I go run buy, deadline has passed

Mindlog:


+Get your hotel reservation
-Apply online for e-visa
-Get your yellow card.
-Confirm if Kenya still requires covid test results.
-Within 3/4 days of staying in a hotel in Nairobi, you should get a cool bedsitter of between 10,000ksh-12,000ksh (would suggest somewhere in Rongai near Africa Nazarene University).

I will suggest you apply for a degree/Masters program in that University for September admission and opt for online classes only to show up on campus for end of the trimester exams.

Being a student, would give you the opportunity to regularize your stay there while you freelance as against being on tourist visa, renewing on the long run would be more expensive.

Your studentship would make the University apply for Pupil pass (student visa) on your behalf, the University would issue you cover letter to facilitate you opening a Kenyan bank account, getting a Tax Pin and your Alien ID.

Being a student who minds his business and keep it low, Kenyan police and immigration officers are less likely to look your way.

oga, there are so many factors people relocate. Electricity, security, and sense of acceptance could be the reason. I can't drive my Benz here in peace without police always stopping me to harass me and think I can't buy a car. Who does that? At a point police officers told me to enter my car so they can search me in the bush. In this country. All because I drive a Mercedes. Lot of corruption, my prepaid metre reads twice, at a point I complained they took my metre and refused to return it, and put me on monthly billing, these guys will bring any amount they want, in 24 hrs I only get 6 hrs of light, sometimes 3 hrs. After shouting and calling people I know, they brought it back, and it started reading three times more. you won't understand. I bought solar inverter 700k, last year, I was still using NEPA light to charge it. Sometimes I go use gen because sun no dey come out during rainy season. Since yester it has been raining, no light, but I have inverter, but na gen I dey use. You won't understand, I have alot of clients, I need to deliver my projects every 24 hrs, any interruption with electricity ruined my life. My desktop is an expensive one, my Rtx 3070 chops power like madt, explaining all these things is long story. The bottom line is I have tried everything possible. If you think solar is that good, why don't Americans who do it disconnect their electricity and use solar? Nothing beats normal electricity

nedekid:
Obviously going to be a nuisance there, cos after your money finishes, you will resort to other means to survive, hence creating issues for legitimate Nigerians that wish to travel to that country and other.

Victoronah1:
so stupid of you. I'm already in Nairobi, and I work from home, my average income is 3400$ a month after tax.

Jecci:
Congratulations on your successful relocation.
How's life in Kenya like?

Victoronah1:
Atleast,no more electricity issues. I work now without having to run away and buy fuel. I'm able to scale myself and even build my website, all because of constant electricity alone. For now I'm still indoor haven't made any friends yet

glucoseg:
Hey guys, I'm trying to apply for the Portugal d7 visa, but I'm stuck at the point where I need to provide proof of accommodation/rental agreement for a year. Has anyone been able to get through this hurdle?
I'm also curious if anyone has successfully been granted a d7 visa from Nigeria.
Please, I really need this info urgently as time is running out.

Thanks

Your country Nigeria is bleeped up. I had 5 Million after converting to Kenyan shillings I had about 1million plus Kenyan shillings. Just know that house rent alone for a year depending oo, will take you like 300k, that's minus house hold things you will be. The place I am the electricity, DStv and water are all in my rent. I pay about 20k khs. So budget like 8 million. My flight was 170k cause I booked like 3 months. And I boosted eco flexible so I could change date.

I was able to convert my money by going to Benin Republic and changing it to cefa. Then convert it from cefa to usdt. That's the only way I got up to 1million sed if not about 700k.

I am financially bouyant to pay for a house for 1 year, that's not my problem. They now offer e-visa.

Which car is common there? I own a Benz here, and I was thinking of I will sell it and buy there. Or just leave it here for my parents

Hi thanks for sharing your experience. I’m planning on leaving Nigeria for one of these countries: Benin Republic, Ghana or Kenya and start a business. Did you apply for e-visa or visa on arrival to get to Kenya?
