I am a block-chain developer atm and i also don't work for Nigerians, it's either they end up not paying you or they pay partly or they expect the world from you because they gave you ordinary 200k or so.

Don't write so. If you can score at least 320/340 and at least apply to four safety schools, you have a great chance to being admitted and offered some sort of funding esp assistantships. What was your 2'2 CGPA? But please note that the GRE isn't a walk in the park.

P.S. Relocating is more about finances than qualifications. You might/will face disappointments, setbacks here and there. Can you effortlessly afford to write either IELTS/TOEFL twice or thrice within a short period of time? Can you afford to do same for the GRE if you don't attain a good score? Can you afford one month quarantine fees? Most people have the relevant qualifications and information but finances disqualifies them. I know many people on this table. So focus on how much you will spend as a BSc degree qualifies you for japa via study route.


Thanks a lot for the insight bro. I believe if i continue doing the work I'm doing i should be able to save up enough funds within 2 years. My CGPA was quite close to 3.5.
I know about IELTS/TOEFL but It seems i would have to do some in-depth research on this GRE thing.

last reply to you cos he be like you don’t wanna learn or research. There is a Canadian thread on here go read. By extra degree- masters, pgd , diploma is recognized by the evaluating bodies. Acca, ican ats, cipm, ciin and bcs uk is also recognized. All those other it certifications are not for immigration purposes. Canada system is based on points, the certification is relevant when you get to Canada but for points in immigration those ones above give points. Bye
Thanks

no, only bcs uk is recognized as extra degree.

But getting an extra degree was your suggestions for Canada. I think some courses offered on edx are recognised in USA, Canada and Europe. Have you heard of these Digital nomad visas?

Get 3 years work experience and an extra degree( post grad) for Canada.

For usa write GRE , apply for scholarship in state universities.

For Europe improve your skills and experience, and apply directly to jobs or use school.


Do online certificates count as an extra degree? Cos I don't see myself attending any Nigerian institution undecided
I'm already taking several courses offered by harvad on your edx

My problem with you people that want to promote another brand is how you keep slandering another person’s brand. You can actually promote your brand without lies. Fair Money has a very medium interest rate

I am not promotion or slandering anybody's brand! Somebody asked a question and i gave a response based on my experience. Please go and have a problem with your ancestors not me. You sound like you work for one of this crazy loan apps
Business / Re: How A Loan App Wiped My Account And Left Me Broke by avalon7(m): 2:38pm On Dec 12, 2021
The only sane Money lending app right now is BRANCH. They will never call you to insult you. Even if you're late on repayment, they will only call you after few weeks of being late to encourage you and they don't do compounded interest on overdue payment.
You can also use their mobile app to make transfer and pay bills or recharge your phone absolutely free.
Their app no d ever get issues, i believed they are owned by an intentional firm.

Abeg if you decide to use branch loan app use my referral code as thank you for this Update i just give u. You will also get N1000 coupon to use when repaying your first loan .
Find referral code below

If you ever have to borrow, please use Fairmoney!!! You'll never be harassed. Their customer service is top notch.

Carbon isn't bad either. None of these apps harass you like others that will do that shit to you.

Las, las, bros, try abstain from borrowing abeg. E no dey make person mind rest. All the best to you, nonetheless

Fairmoney interest rate is insane!

"Gender identity is how you feel about yourself and the ways you express your gender and biological sex" not a construct base on sex, like our primitive society keeps hammering.
You feel like a man, hence you identify as a cisgender male. A male assigned at birth individual doesn't feel like it, hence they decide to choose the gender identity they are more confortable with. They are not confused, stop gaslighting.
Whoa, I don't have the strength to argue gender identity, this topic gives me migraine all the time.


Gosh that went right over your head didn't it undecided
Facts don't care about your feelings and no I'm not a man because i feel i am.
Using that same flawed logic can i demand that i be called doctor because i feel like a doctor even tho I'm not?
Also If gender is simply about how one feels then why tf do they need general tags(like man, woman etc) .
If there is nothing DEFINITIVE about a woman then how can one then feel like a woman or man? What exactly does it mean to feel like woman or man? What feelings constitutes that of a "man" or "woman"?
Use your head brother. Perhaps the reason you get a migraine everything you argue gender identity is because you are fighting soo hard to reject logic because of how you feel.
Even if the world decides to pity some people and adopt this new definition of gender then the word "gender" will loose all merit and importance. It will not be a sensible system to classify the human population and hence would have no place on a PASSPORT, BIRTH CERTIFICATE, ID CARD etc. A person's favourite food will hold more importance than gender. Think!

Facts are Facts and should not take a back seat for the emotions of certain people. Imagine a system of classification where only the subject of classification can identify itself because there are no objective markers!? Why won't they be "mis-gendeered". When a person is a man/woman simply because they say they are. Again I'm not against gay/bi-sexual people, it is the life they've found themselves in but if you keep throwing your shit at people's face they will get fed up. I've seen a couple movies with gay characters that were Great! But it's different when it's forced and at the expense of the quality of the movie that's all I'm saying. Have a blessed they and fulfilled life

When you feel people shouldn't exist, or their existence is too much, it is hate and bigotry.
Your pronounce I'd guess is he/him, how do u feel when someone mistakenly misgender u with she/her? What is so wrong in choosing not to be associated with a particular gender the society naturally expects of you?
These things are bound o happen. Society is a social construct, constantly evolving.
The media is only trying to normalize things, so that the world would be a better place. So that no gay child would be persecuted for being gay just like his heterosexual counterparts,so that it won't be so weird in the future to hear someone identify as non binary. These are people that exist with experience, they are valid. They ain't causing no harm but only demanding they be respected in equal fashion as all.

I never said anything about not wanting anyone to exist, stop making things up.
Gender is a social construct based on SEX. As a human you are either male or female. There are traits that are predominantly found in the male and vise versa. This is a fact. The differences in which the two sexes behave and the roles they tend play in society as a result of innate traits is what is defined by gender.
Anyone that mis-genders me is either blind or stupid or both because there are clear biological and behavioural markers. I am African and if you saw me, i would not have to identify as one but you would know.
Man evolves to better adapt to nature and obtain more from life. Language evolves to become more effective and simplified and not the other way around. Words are used to DESCRIBE reality and not DEFINE reality.
Gender is binary is an accurate and effective way of classifying the Human population and the world will definitely be a better place without a rise in the number of confused children suffering from gender dysphoria as a result of the things they saw on the internet.

If this isn't ment, I wonder what is. What blacks suffered can't be compared to what gay people go through? Lemme use your very Nigeria as an example. If a Nigeria comes out/ is found out as gay, it's literally the end for him. From the emotional abuse y'all dish out ( hello, check your NL front page for gay related post and see for yourself) to the more physical one he'd receive from the people close to them; beaten and disgrace, thrown out from the home, friends and family deserting them. It's not uncommon to lynch a gay man here and the whole country would celebrate the act.
And there are special kind of scums, the gay hunters, popularly called Kitos in the gaybourhood that go about hunting for gay folks and causing misery to them. And gay people can't report these things because the police and law ain't in their side. So they suffer in silence. And these discrimination is similar in all the countries that discriminates against them. Isn't this worst than slavery? The blacks were taken out of their countries and treated like slaves, gay people in their very own country are treated like slaves. What could be worse, being treated like slave in your own country or outside of it ?


The statistics says gay people account for about 10% of the population, and from experience, I have come to realize it's way more than that. Everyone is finally getting the representation they deserve, your prejudice won't stop it.

In Nigeria, people get abducted daily on the highways, women and children are raped daily, cultists bully and brutalise people in schools, the police robs harasses brutalise and even kill innocent citizens, workers are underpaid while a few people steal all the wealth in the country, the healthcare is trash, no basic amenities and people are living in inhuman conditions. Nigeria has a lot of humanitarian problems and if i was to make a list, gay people not being accepted would not be on the top 20

Allowed myself to be indoctrinated? Lol, I am gay, what bullshit are you saying. They ain't pushing any idealogy, it's representation for all. But your hate and bigotry obviously won't let u see that.
And pray tell, what "ideologies" are they pushing that ain't true?
You are just the typical African man, you don't still believe that gay people exist. Why because, you've made the ones close to you hide in cocoons with your very devilry.

There is another thing the Liberals love doing; accuse anyone that disagrees with them of hate and bigotry. Yes i am African but i still believe NO ONE should be persecuted for their sexual orientation or how they express themselves as long as it does not interfere with other people's lives or cause them any harm.
Even as a black man i find it distasteful when black characters are forced into a movie plot that it feels inorganic. Same thing goes for all other groups seeking for "representation".
But as far as I'm concerned and what the facts can prove, being gay is just a sexual orientation and nothing more. But it doesn't stop there, the LGBTQ++++++ gets more absurd with each letter. Now there are talks about gender being fluid and people can identify as what ever gender they want or create their own and can FORCE everyone to used their " PREFER PRONOUNCE". These are the ideologies being pushed onto the public and they are all FALSE.

Yeah it's sickening! They don't even consider the plot they just try to stuff as much lgbtqabcdetc shit in as possible it ruins the movie.
At the end you just have a poorly written, poorly scripted, unentertaining piece of garbage which only purpose is to push a lie. I called them commercials cos all they're trying to do is sell something.

Una don start again, keep crying.

It's was the same clause that applied to having blacks in every series, getting major roles and all, but I don't see you lamenting. You guys speak of oppression, but when the tables are turned, you'd do worse.

It's the new decade, and everyone is fvcking getting the representation they deserve. If u are bothered with it, you can stick to them old series, I am sure there are tons of them u didn't get to see.

Please do not compare being black and what black people suffered as slave with being queer. I am not against gay people but the lgbtq+++ movement have lost it. At this point it is just a bunch of privileged people demanding that everyone plays along just to make them happy. These people account for less that 1% of the population but the way they're represented in movies you'd think it's over 50%.

ALL HUMAN BEHAVIOURS ARE NOT EQUAL. THERE IS SUCH A THING AS ABNORMAL. Most of the ideologies they are trying so hard to push on everyone have not been proven to be true as a matter of fact most of them are just straight bs but they choose to make it mainstream anyways. That is called Propaganda!
