We all have our priorities... I'd advise you go for the PhD first, since you've started.
Attempt a dialogue of an extension of period with them in New Zealand. Perhaps it may be granted

I just got a job offer in New Zealand, I am to earn 30 New Zealand dollars per hour.

I have been pursuing a career in academics and I currently run a PhD program in a federal University. I am currently in the field gathering my data.

Should i move to New Zealand or should I turn down the job to complete my PhD? Or is there a way to continue and finish my PhD program via video conferencing since I just have to present my research work.
Please help me. Tell me what may work in this situation.

You will be a fool to leave a phd to go and earn 30nzd which is probably 25 dollars per hour job in nz. You will also realize quickly that you are a low income earner and at the bottom of the food chain. How much be 30dollars? Momey wey helpdesk dey make per hour? Smh

you need to do major research into the cost of living in NZ and see the possibility of continuing your academic pursuits there adn what it would take. that should provide you with the info to help make your decision. your decision should be based on data and not on the emotions of nairalanders.

meanwhile abeg how u take get the Job for NZ, show us way grin? for real oooo!!

I don't know about your school, but Unilag runs most of such programmes virtually. Many students that japa while still running their programmes, Unilag made them continue virtually, and even defended their projects virtually also. That's why I love Unilag. There are very flexible in some of these matters.

Please confirm from your school. There must be a way they should help, so you can kill these two beautiful birds with just a stone.
Don't forgo either for the other. First confide in your Course Advisor, let him/her tell you what to do. And above all, pray for God's divine direction.

Congratulations. I wish you success in all of your life's endeavour.

That's nice

I wonder how people come online to ask question about their personal life or what they should do with their future. You're the one who can decide on what you want in life not counselors from social media. What do you want in life? What is your vision, purpose of living etc? These are ways you make a well thought decision about your future. Not everyone will japa. Some will succeed here in Nigeria. So decide and and stop disturbing people who does know your gender, family, background, education, religion etc with all these kind of question. Very soon people will start asking whether they should brush their teeth before going to bed or not since they will do so the next morning. Funny folks Lol

We all seek counsel, whether online or offline, to help take decisions in life; if you cannot or will not advise the OP, why not just ignore his post?

Calculate new zealand currency to see its real value. Not all dollars is weighty
If 1NZD = 59 cent. 30NZD would be 17.7 USD. if he works 8hrs a day, he gets 141 USD and in a month gets 4390 USD (assuming he decides to work everyday). 4390 USD * 1000 NGN = 4,390,000 a month. I go pause the PhD or leave it and do another one there in 3years.

There's a special way of ease that I usually take when climbing the ladder of success.

1. Don't rush things if you ain't too stressed where you are presently.

2. Don't abandon your PH.D progm if it's not too stressful to run it.

3. Abroad or western world ain't running.

4. Education is key anyday, so you are almost there. Your journey rewards and easy life will soon start.

5. 1 Nzd equals 59cent according to someone here, which can easily be checked too, (100cents = 1 USD), and that means you will be earning abt 15 USD per hour there in New Zealand, ( this amount is minimum wage for unskilled labourers in the U.S. and even in Germany when converted both both currencies), so it is not as tho it's that much.

I have a friend there. The place is okay. The standard of living is one of the best in the world. Just that it's very cold.
Tbh the weather there is mild, it's gives the south Africa vibes. I think the weather is okay.
Unless your friend lives in southern new Zealand which is a bit cold.

Go to New Zealand. The quality of life is better there. If you're married, you'd give your wife and kids the opportunity of growing up in a society that values human life and human flourishing. If you're not married, you'd get married and raise children in a sane society that values their lives and help them flourish.
As for the Phd, you'd live in a society that gives you options. You can keep your job and do a part time Phd program or even a full time online program. In this way, you get to kill two birds with a stone. And if you love Nigeria so much, you can return after some years, by which time you would have saved up some money, developed yourself, and probably had citizenship or permanent residence ( which will give you a lot of flexibility and options going forward).
If you asked me, I'd advise you to go to New Zealand brother.

will be one of the best decision you will make... Yes new Zealand is very far but the standard of living is way too good, can't even compare it with the US. first talk to your supervisor and discuss with him if it is possible to present your thesis in absential... I have just one question for you. After PHD what next?? Lecturing job? That the pay is nothing before now, and even gone worse compared to the recent standard of living...

At current official exchange rate, 30 NZD = 13,543.31
If work for 8 hours a day (9 am - 5 pm), that gives you 108,346.48 a day.
Multiply that by 22 working days a month and you have 2, 383, 622.56 before tax.
The decision is now yours to make.
