That's gross misconduct by a military personnel in a military attire. Very insensitive
Nah. It's just dancing. And it looks like they're in the barracks on their off time.

They can, they can.....why is it not a reality and why has Nigeria remain overwhelming a country with poor people?
Because there are sick oyinbos and sellout Nigerians who do as much as they can to stop progress in Nigeria (and elsewhere), so they can loot the country, exploit the people, and other depravity.

A comfortable lifestyle more attainable in Nigeria, as in Nigerians in Nigeria are living with access to 24hrs electricity's? Tap running 24/7 ? Being paid living wages?, Access to quality health care? Enjoy well equipped educational institutions at all levels? Not living under fear of being kidnapped? Feeding is cheaper in comparison to the minimum wage?
That's your reality and view. Everyone doesn't feel that way. There's guys that walk away from a middle class life abroad and move back to Nigeria. There's people who have a humble job and life, and they're okay with that.

ETA:

Let those who believe they have better chances in life in Nigeria, remain but they shouldn't diminish those who are also experiencing better chances abroad, it is not patriotism but envy.
Pointing out that people can be happy or have an easier life in Nigeria isn't an attack on anyone. It's interesting that some people feel attacked. Sure some people are jealous, but what kind of person is so viscerally angry at their own soil?

What is the quality of life being enjoyed by those living in Nigeria as a result of being the 3rd cheapest country to live in?
They can get online and make American wages while paying a Nigerian cost of living.

They can find business opportunities in the problems they see in Nigeria, and become an actual millionaire far more easily than they could abroad.

Even if they can't make American wages for long, that money goes very far in Nigeria. They could create a comfortable lifestyle where they barely "need" to work.

A comfortable lifestyle is more attainable and sustainable (generally speaking) compared to other countries.

Angel55555:
This is why the use of firearms should be regulated in the US, anyone above 18 in most states can just wake and decide to buy a gun for no reason.
Letting just about anyone get a weapon doesn't help, but this didn't happen because of firearms. It happened because of white nationalist groups who are basically terrorists that the government allows to commit these crimes.

It's also a result of foreign manipulation. The same way the west orchestrates chaos throughout Africa is the same way Russia and possibly China are financing this terrorism, and causing government corruption in the form of financing radical, right-wing politicians. That's another major crime going unpunished -- the clear case of treason by Republicans backed by Russia.

The bottom line is America could absolutely prevent almost all of these incidents. Its government chooses not to do it.

Your freelancing and a little part-time job likely cannot provide a viable income in the UK. Moving your family abroad without a clear path to a decent living could have you on public assistance. That's literally a good chunk of immigrants' reality. And some of these places they live are filled with crime and dysfunction that can easily victimize your child. Some of these kids end up in gangs purely out of fear of the neighborhood. They want protection, but then they end up committing major crimes. Some of them have other problems, e.g. poverty and lack of stability interfering in education, depression, bullying, and classism combined with racism. Some of them turn to crime and drugs as a "solution" for these problems.

I'm just being real.

However, there are plenty of success stories despite very humble beginnings. So, hey, you never know.

For or against, there's lots of valid points on each side. It's ultimately a very personal decision, and each person must weigh what's important to them rather than just doing what the next man does.

Someone has been telling me student don’t work while studying except after the completion of the program

He/she will get a one year job search visa after which u can switch to an internship or a work visa

Please how true is this cause i intend to enroll for my Bsc at UCAM

A valuable response will be appreciated
I don't know the government policy on this, but what could they do to stop you from freelancing (for entities outside the country) or working remotely for a foreign firm?

And Spain is a cheap place to live, so you wouldn't need an "American" salary.

Well, study for a medical profession because the freelancing won't cut it in the UK. You may end up on a council estate, and visiting your kids in prison.

1. Men commonly act entitled to the point of harassment and obsession.
2. Men commonly act super thirsty.
3. Some women (and some men), don't have the mental capacity to dissociate common things from sex.
4. Some women are abuse victims, and basically fear men.

Your freelancing money goes a lot further in Nigeria and other African nations.

If you want to move countries, it would be better to consider countries nearby.

But really, you're doing so well, why move and why throw the money away? You could start a bunch of businesses, build rental properties, or just grow what you're doing. You may eventually be getting a decent American salary while living in Nigeria! Do you realize how good that is?

That likely could have been prevented, but oyinbos in American law enforcement and government have decided to do nothing about white nationalist group terrorism (not that this is new).

The terrorists exploit the fact that there's tons of people in America who either will do anything but work for money, or are so dümb they can be convinced to commit these crimes.

The only way it's definitely a good idea is if you plan to study for a medical profession (nursing, physician assistant, doctor, etc), where you're almost guaranteed a good job. People who do nursing, for example, are set up for a nice middle class life, good schools for the kids, plenty of money to send home, and the ability to bring family over.

If you just want to "hustle" or school and see what you can get, it's high risk. The biggest problem is people saving and spending so much money, and then potentially coming back with nothing. And those people could have built a house, started a business, or advanced in their career. Alternatively, you may be downgrading your job and lifestyle for no good reason.

If you're going to take the risk, do thorough research and planning.

He's coming up with a solution instead of complaining.

Btw, Google "make grilled cheese with an iron." Almost all the results will show it's done/been done heavily in America.
