My Sojourn To Scotland... Story Of My Life by lordally(m): 2:14am On Sep 02, 2023
This is the story of my life, and I only choose to do this so I can reach out to that person who's been down psychologically , emotionally etc. You've done all you can but it seems things aren't working out well for you, this Thread is for you. I hope my story inspires you and keeps your hope alive.

And to the demons, who can't afford an international passport but jumps from one thread to another , convulsing... You won't get a single reply from me.

And to the higher demons who have travelled out of Nigeria and also gotten another passport but will still tell you that you wasted your time travelling out of 9ja... Best believe me, I'll ignore you too grin

DisGuy or Justwise banned me from the travel section for 2 years cos I misused the report button... But I think all I was trying to do was to report comments derailing Tensazangetsu20 Thread but I got banned. I'm calling on the Moderators to please reconsider and unban me , so my story can help someone out there in Nigeria.

This was how we all felt over 20 years ago when we made our daring escape and exodus from the country.

24/25 years down the line, it has gone from bad to worst.

Isn't this ironic?

Are we making progress or retrogressing?

What's to hope about this contraption and her demonic leaders?

"These are the demons we fight every day in this section" - Gerrard59. Apparently, one of the demons can't afford a Nigerian passport. grin

Looking at it closely, e be like say my instinct that stated some of them are ex-convicts from British/American prisons might actually be apt. After all, a significant number of the demons are those who have been denied visas at different embassies or agents duped them.

Congratulations on your relocation.

P.S. We keep fighting the demons one day at a time. We cannot lose because no one has ever lost betting against Nigeria.

cc: Thiagokid, thanks for the mention.

Thanks baba... you too much. It's a well cut out plan, well executed... but one thing that shocks me is the speed at which my Japanese happened... I just thank the stars for aligning to my course...

I'm currently outside in the city center with my people... when I'm back I'll write my story

Sorry for the long wait. I have been busy and trying to wrap my head around a whole lot of things. So my decision to document my story was born out of the sole aim to Inspire that one person who has a plan and sees no way out in executing that plan or has tried hard to achieve something but things seem not to work out. I believe my story will help to keep your hope alive and I believe, things will work out for good.

I will omit some private details due to personal reasons sha...

So it all started in 2017, when I was at home and then my uncle came to see my dad, to let him know that he has gotten a US visa. Everyone was so happy, because this is something my uncle has been trying to get for a very very long time. He has spent so many years and even refused to go to a Nigerian university because all his eyes is in USA. The whole family was tired of him, and even saw him as someone who's not serious with his life.

But all that changed when he got a Visa to the USA. Money no dey Money no dey, the family raised 1.9M for him and he left. I can still remember the day he left... one evening like that around 5pm via Qatar airways. Meeeeeeen that was a defining moment of my life! As I never saw the possibility of leaving Nigeria due to finance.

I began to see that things could be possible and all I needed to do was have a plan...even if the plan wouldn't work, I just needed to have a plan. So I became active on Nairaland. Through Nairaland, I literally became an immigration expert o, knowing Japa routes about Germany, USA, Estonia, Poland, Czech republic, Brazil, Lithuania and Mexico. I had a nairaland account before then but I wasn't active. But my uncle's US movement opened my eyes and gave me the interest to read and gain more knowledge about JAPA. And from that moment, I never looked back.

I got into Nysc in 2018. And in that period I was very active in the Japa thread on Nairaland. Anywhere I see a new Japa thread you go see my for there. In 2019 I applied for one Entry the Finland Government was doing. I can't remember what it was at the time but it was something that had to do with the Happiness of Finland and in respect to that, they wanted to bring people from other countries to come and stay in Finland for I think 2 weeks...all expenses paid! All that was required for you to do was to upload a video of yourself, telling them why you should be selected and all that.

Omo, with my Itel P32 phone I went out to and open field , just opposite the place i was serving and did the video, said all the things I had in mind and then uploaded it. And hoped I would be selected. Then I went on to read about Finland and other ways to Japa to Finland. As expected grin , I wasn't selected, but then it gave me the interest of knowing more about Finland and how to Japa there.
