I graduated from the university 2022 with first class honours. Now the state government have stated automatic employment of the whole first class graduate, and that means automatic lecturers job for me. My HOD called me yesterday to inform me. Also I have also gotten admission to study in the UK. I'm damn confused here and don't know what to go for.

You will need to decide what you want.

But if I will advise you, take the lecturing job while you continue to process your travels. That you have been offered an admission in the UK does not mean you have gotten the visa and other necessary resources to travel. So what happens if you fail in your bid to eventually travel?

If your travel plan eventually works out, you will have to simply resign. People resign from jobs everyday. It's not a crime to resign.

For now, keep your travel plans to yourself while you simply start this lecturing job. It will even be on your CV assuming you are able to travel out.

All the very best.
