Bros JAPA, ignore dimwits telling you to stay in Nigeria.

The 1.2 you are earning will be worth like 100,000K, in the next 5 years given inflation caused by the monumental failure of governance in Nigeria. Every year this money will be depleted by inflation - This amount is meaningless.

The scope to earn this sort of money in Nigeria is slim, very few organizations pay such amount. Its better to be in an environment where your options are more.

JAPA , maintain links to Nigeria. If you ever feel you love Nigeria so much then come back...

But ignore dimwits telling you to stay in Nigeria - they do not have foresight.

You are currently earning USA min wage in Nigeria

From tushd.

What type of visa?

If PR, pls move
If work, Pls move
If study, 50/50
If visit... travel and return

God bless

Zico5:

Don't mind all these fake story tellers. Which NGO is paying 1k dollars in this current economy in Nigeria. Truly faceless forum is full of fraud and deceit

Is the 1k too much or too small?

I can’t not be earning that amount in Nigeria I will be thinking of leaving. This country is too sweet abeg

Dey load am make your village poeple hear you first

You are already doing a little bit well, you don't need to jakpa finally, just get your family over there, most especially your kid, and go there like 3-4 times a year to visit then..

At least you have secured the future of your kid....

Japa isn't for everyone daddy. Don't tell him to do so until you factor in other considerations he didn't mention here.

I will advise you leave the country

I am a professional; in the top decile of Nigerian earners and yet I am planning my own exit from the country

Some things are bigger than just looking at the surface
Over the course of my career; I have seen the purchasing power of our supposed earnings diminish in value overtime

Case in point; in times past; there is. Lot you could do as an ABO grade banker then
Try am today make we see how far

Decent schools are gradually getting out of reach
Poor people are getting more and more around us
The list goes on and on

Anyways it's your choice to make
Being a have in the midst of many have nots around me is messing me up and I have to leave

Reinamaria:
A person that really wants to japa will not need people's advice to do so. 🙄

é wan pepper una

Abroad people are facing more bills, more tax and stringent laws with racism.

If you die for abroad then go need to send your body home.

Slave in a white man's land.

Nigeria is good if you earn $1k monthly.

Leave am naw
He better make adequate plans to leave the country

PECON1:
Am 100percent sure the mumu op is not earning such amount, people that earns such don't seek advice from those that are not earning that much. Nairalanders are very funny and predictable,all of sudden they are now earning over a million a month and ar confused whether to travel or not.
U guys are funny, what are u guys doing to earn such amount a month, Is what we want to know.

I laughed at it when ever I see it

"Define Sweet"

For you to be earning 1.2m monthly, it show how intelligent, educated, exposure and smart you are but sorry to say: I'm disappointed in you. For you to bring something like this to nairaland. You should be able to decide for crying out loud. I'm sorry if it sound embarrassing...

For someone earning 1.2 million naira monthly to be asking if he should Japa after applying for Visa a year ago, to finally get and be asking this question shows you will also come to ask us if you should go to work on Monday.

Mschew!

Stay na if Nigeria never taya you.

E never taya you naim you apply for visa?

EconFinance:

"Define Sweet"

Put honey for mouth you go know.
If you sabi yr way the country sweet

Meerahbel:

What visa you applied for is the answer, are you given citizenship? Or just visa and you are already concluding you have made it? If it's student visa to US then your suffering is loading, to UK then you will manage with washing nyash in old people's home, if Canada then you good.
Take note that what the person in Nigeria that earn 1.2M can do with the money, the person in the US earning 2 to 3 times in dollar can never ever do it. I bought 2 car tires and did alignment other day for $435, they not expensive type oh. See you better hold that your job with both hands. Be going abroad on holidays and be learning eventually after some time you will know the answer

Opurumiri:
Some people are so stupid!!!! You earn that much and want to leave all that to travel to another country to start all over again. You're a very big fool!!! For me I left Nigeria because I got a Juicy job offer abroad I couldn't resist!!! You better sit your ass in Nigeria and continue to make your money... Come to Philadelphia and see hundreds of homeless people on the street!!!

ppl like you are few,that says the truth

My dear, let me have the job and you can japa. E beta say you stay back and face your job. It's never greener on that side ooo. A job and hand is worth more that the uncertainty of japa.

Baba tell me more

Your choice,pls. Allow us rest.

ppogba:
You should have asked before applying for the visa.

Lesson after JAMB

No mind him. Just wan trend

Japa is the way forward for your children...what we have is bad leadership cos one day...one president can bring out a policy that will close down many companies....so the best bet now is to japa...

CJStarz:
U dey Naija dey earn in dollars,wetin U wan go abroad go do? Earn in Naira? Or U jus wan do us wey still dey struggle longer throat,ba? Kosi wahala. One day, e go click

who told you is true, don't kill urself bcuz of what you see on social media

ojun50:

Put honey for mouth you go know.
If you sabi yr way the country sweet

I'm wondering whats sweet about the country though in this state
And it's not that I am "broke" because I am not

I'm just wondering what's the "enjoyment" that people keep talking about

Apart from say time spent with family members
I am not seeing any much enjoyment as such

Meerahbel:
From tushd.

I guess you work remotely. Earning in dollars and spending in naira is a cool deal. Unless you're sure of a better offer and safe environment (the west ain't that safe anymore including their governments targeting kids), I believe if you live within your means, save and invest, you'll be better of staying in the country. Also, don't carry on unnecessary responsibilities that will wear down your income. Stay blessed.

Wishing you well - Teemy

My candid advice is that just build yourself here, later you can relocate your family abroad and go visiting!!!

Please, I beg you to stay. If you know the kind of wahala wey dey this abroad. You will not even think of staying back home.
