@businessnow: bro If you are going to go this route, just ensure you have been in the news in the last couple of years or less. And that you have industry people who can give you a letter of recommendation, like the C-suite level guys so either CEO's , Professors or heads of departments in tech or the field you are applying in even if it's research. Also make sure that when they google your name, that they can see a lot of meat, like speaking engagement and blog post, even if na twitter space you dey speak and flyer dey, run am, na something. You can start doing all these things now if you don't have them already and then you can apply some months or one year along the line so your profile go get weight, if you start now and you apply now, them go reject you based on say you do all these things to get the visa.

Scanning through, you should, on face value, be a prime candidate for Global Talent Visa (Digital Technology)
- www.gov.uk/global-talent-digital-technology
Your solutions and/or products development in the last five years will be of importance though.
Alternatively, as last resort, explore the start-up visa route.
NB: this is totally different from scale up visa
NB: it is non renewable and doesn't count towards ILR
The Global Talent however counts towards ILR (3 or 5 yrs!!!) and you can even be an entrepreneur!!! (AKA self-employed)

You may want to engage the folks at Bincom. They are in the UK and 9ja. - https://blog.bincom.net/emigr8/
Incidentally, they just had an open session yester night.

[UPDATED]
Noticed Bigtt76 has already suggested Global Talent. Though still referred to as Global Tech talent visa, the current official reference is Global Talent Visa. You have the Digital Technology route (as suggested and applicable in your case). There are also the Academic/Researcher route (which I've posted on last year) and there's the Arts and Culture route (seemly not the option for you).
NB: the Entrepreneur visa route is closed to new applicant. However, you may want to explore the Innovator visa route (the successor to Entrepreneur visa)
So, if you've got £50k in the kitty, you're good to go for Innovator visa. You just need to come up with a biz idea and get endorsed.
PS: not sure. Alternatively , you might become a financial partner to your current UK collaborator as a full fledged Director in good standing.

bigtt76:
Entrepreneur visa appears to be close to what you should look at but you would need to have an investment of £50k on grand

Another option is the Global tech talent visa and company relocation visa (or something close to that)

mimilyrics:
At least 29 days notice but the longer, the better incase UKVI needs to investigate before approving. Link for more details: https://www.gov.uk/marriages-civil-partnerships/give-notice

I think the response from @Lindakam is in order. Kindly pay close attention to the clarity by Mamatukwas and LagosismyHome. IMHO, bus ride is universal. I kind of tilt towards the COVID relief being universal as well: TheGuyfromHR might be of assistance regarding COVID.
In responding to (and refunding) the Council, kindly let them know that it has come to your attention that the relief/funds appears to be public funds in nature, as persons on immigration status that does not accord you the right of recourse to public fund, you are of the view that
- you might not be proper recepient of these alleviations, albeit goodwill
- you feel uncomfortable about them
- you had acted bona fide a priori until now ...
Nonetheless, you will appreciate any clarification from the Council.

PS: I recalled there was some conversation some pages back on certain Council provisions different in Scotland compare to England & Wales. The conversation was on Council housing. Maybe, I say maybe, there might be one of two differences with Scotland's School provisions as well!!!! Nonetheless, as stated by others, rather thread on the path of caution than #sorry!

Mamatukwas:


Free buss pass is fine. But the rest is public funds. Find a way to contact the council and stop payment. Refund the monies Sef if you can. To avoid stories that touch. That’s what I’d advice.

Lindakam:
It is

Public funds include a range of benefits that are given to people on a low income, as well as housing support. These are:

income-based jobseeker’s allowance
income support
child tax credit
working tax credit
a social fund payment
child benefit
housing benefit
council tax benefit
an allocation of local authority housing
local authority homelessness assistance
