Mickykarim:
Fayemi provided the following and according to the writer without any sense of value with responsibility.

Free education
provision of roads
Free medical attention
Security.

ALL THE ABOVE MENTIONS ARE THE CONVENTIONAL NORMAL AND THE ESSENTIAL RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE ELCETED EXECUTIVE GOVERNOR OF ANY DEMOCRATIC DISPENSATION ALL OVER THE WORLD WHERE DEMOCRATIC GOVERNANCE OBTAINS.

It is only in Nigeria and the black world that we CELEBRATE what is expected of any public officer and usual normal public office DELIVERIES.

WHAT DID Fayemi CAMPAIGNED TO DO FOR THE PEOPLE IF NOT THE ENUMERATION ABOVE.

Therefore, Fayemi has neither done anything extraordinary, nor perform beyond the expectations. He has actually done what was expected of him in public office which cannot be verified. It is the people of the Ekiti state, not you PAID AGENT that should sing his praise if he actually delivered dividends of the democracy, he promised the electorate.

Mr. WRITER YOU HAVE NOT ONLY EXPOSED Fayemi FOR SAUNDARY PERFORMANCE, RATHER NON-PERFORMANCE AS GOVERNOR OF Ekiti State.

Clearly, you have no understanding of the duties of the office of the executive governor of a state with, what it entails. Including, the functions expected of any governor of a state.

Backpedal:

Just have this first kid in Nigeria
That's my advise
It's too late to start making concrete plans

You can start from now though planning for the second child

DAwest7:
very very useless funny enough we are from same village that’s Isan Ekiti but I repeat Fayemi is useless and vissionless

birthtourismbr:
As at today , a minimum of 5million naira which should cover accommodation and feeding with government hospital

Only Mauritius, Seychelles rank very high on the global passport index and to an extent, South Africa.

But in Africa, they are the best three in this order:
- Seychelles
- Mauritius
- South Africa.

Although they have the best passports in Africa, none grants automatic citizenship by birth.

oluflourish:
Well, it's your decision to make, but if you ask me... African country is not worth it apart from Namibia, Mauritius, Seychelles, South Africa, Botswana but how many of them give citizenship by birth?.
Those that give is more or less like holding same passport as Nigerian.... Worthless. The money you will spend for flight, feeding, hospital, housing are more saved and get a good country to give birth and give your kids the world.... Your Nigerian born also gets PR and Accelerated Citizenship before 2-3yrs.
But I wish you well if you still insist in Africa

oluflourish:
I will like to commend your efforts in having a good plan for your kids, at it stands now, this is one of the best decision intending couples are to take.
1. With wife already 5months gone, you don't have time, and you should have concluded plan a long time ago.
Your best bet now is give birth your first now in Nigeria, and plan for others in Mexico, Brazil, Chile... The first two gives advantage of automatic citizenship for the child and PR for the whole family including grandparents.
That you have your baby now in Nigeria does not mean that he will not get PR through your next child..
It will even help you to plan well next time.
I had my first in Portugal, and the child is Portuguese because my wife had her after been a resident in Portugal after living in Portugal for 2yrs, now the Portuguese law says 1 year as resident.
In Chile, your baby also gets automatic citizenship as long as any of the parent has Temporary Resident Permit..... Using a birth tourist company will help you with that.
To me, Chile passport is better than US and even Canada because it takes you the most important places in the world and citizens that live outside Chile are not taxed.
Taxation is even making US citizens renounce their American passport because uncle Sam will follow you everywhere, and Canada is towing same part.
Your strategy now, have this one in Nigeria and plan for the next in Mexico, Brazil, Chile.
If your child who is now Chilean born or Mexican born will be eligible for Spanish citizen after 2yrs as Spanish resident.... You already set that child for life. More option to live, work, study, free Healthcare abroad.

My email address is in my signature.

MyGare:
You are welcome. You can.

MyGare:
Alright. I will find out more from someone who works with immigration and get back to you.

JapaProfessor:


There are quite a number of factors to consider i.e budget, motive, long-term goal, culture etc.

But since there are no specifics here, here are some of the countries that grant citizenship by birth:

USA (for the sake of the mention)
Canada.

Others include:
Barbados
Grenada
Saint Kitts and Nevis
Guyana
Chile,
Argentina
Dominica
Belize
Uruguay
Paraguay
Panama.

Unfortunately, not a lot of African countries grant citizenship by birth and that includes Nigeria, but if Chad and Lesotho sounds good for you, then you should actively consider the two as they grant citizenship by birth.

Most African countries require at least one of the parents to be a citizen to be entitled to citizenship.

MyGare:
Oh sorry about that. Citizenship for those born in Zambia used to be automatic. I just saw that now the child can only apply to be registered when they reach 18.
I hope you find what you are looking for.

MyGare:
OP since Africa is not a problem for you, you can consider Zambia. It's peaceful and has the 10th strongest passport in Africa. (If I remember correctly).

It's not as though it's one very beautiful country but it has a system that works and Zambians have a good reputation outside.

You will also not need to spend too much for everything.

JapaProfessor:

Tanzania's law does not permit dual citizenship.

birthtourismbr:
Having your baby in Brazil has so much advantage. And getting a visa is not so difficult. Why don’t you come here to São Paulo Brazil and it will automatically give you and your nuclear family a permanent resident permits and passport* for the newborn. If you are willing to stay here for a year then you are eligible to apply for a citizenship too with your PR permit. The health system is very good and public health system here can bê likened to most private hospitals system in Nigeria. Let me know if you need more information #br_babies I help people with having Brazilian babies here.

Blablamalala:


So what does the bolded mean?

alsudan:


Mr/Mrs Mature, with Tinubu and Obi as the candidate of the two parties,who will you vote for?

Afonjas think say them wise pass everybody. To them the Southern Agenda means the SW, even after being President and VP for 16 years. Greedy lots.

alsudan:
My gift to Afonjas

gforce5:
I know! I was just being generous to the OP. N5 million is not much to have a child outside Africa. You not only need to get a visa to said destination but a transit visa as well due to the fact that the Nigerian passport is weak. We haven't included flight tickets, accommodation, living expenses, hospital bills and baby food. Birth tourism isn't for the average joe in Nigeria. You need to be at least Upper Middle Class to afford it.

I wan settle for Tanzania abeg I've checked ranking of passports and their passport ranks better than Nigeria's. I think that would be better for the baby.

HOKIM:


It will take awhile... due to the covid,the process has been slower....

My only concern is your wife's pregnancy must have become very visible now and that's a challenge for most countries as they can tell the intentions right away

HOKIM:


Yup, you'll need a transit visa.... flight alone will cost close to 2million naira... hospital almost $10k

HOKIM:


Barbados

Yampotatocarrot:


There's a thread on Brazil. Check out that thread, and trust me, you'll be glad you did.

It's not expensive and giving birth there automatically covers your other children (or so). After just few months of living there (I think 6), the parents can apply for citizenship on the "back" of the baby who was given birth to there. Visa-free to a lot of countries

Just search for that Brazil thread, and read thoroughly. Information I gave here might not be totally right so go there to be more accurate

(I didn't even know people had mentioned Brazil already)

iretiogo1:
I think Chile is good but I don’t know the process but it doesn’t cost much

HOKIM:


If you still want your wife to come here, can help but ona go pay me ooo

gforce5:
OP, like most members have said, traveling to Brazil is your best option. Europe is out of the question as citizenship by birth (jus soli) is not automatic. You don't stand a chance of getting a U.S./Canadian visa as your missus is already 5 months pregnant and the pregnancy will be too visible to the visa consul. In Brazil, the whole family can attain citizenship within 2 years after birth in the country. I don't know the costs of giving birth but to be on the safe side, it's best to have a budget of N5million. That should cover everything from visa fees, flight tickets, accommodation and hospital bills. Best of luck.
