I don't know why ya all taking her post serious,we have seen enough Lamentations and it's all about frustration...what can I say than Pity....
Some of them making noise here don't have money to visit naija...like someone said...when those guys came home to marry them...the women always thought you will be picking money on the street of America and now they found out you need two jobs to pay bills and then regret begins..plenty of then in New York,Texas and more....
Once you use your brain you won't keep on blaming..I am living in another country greater than America...
I just see you as someone who is abusing the Internet and also abusing nairaland |

Well I do not think lamenting will solve anything with Nigerian issues...One just gotta move on and stop criticism..If Nigeria failed its people we can still do our best for ourselves,If you keep shouting America America.,..I have been and lived in better nations that are well secure,advanced than America...Once you believe in yourself that you can do it then you can do it..Even though things are not being done proper in naija,who is gonna go there to change it ...you or I?
Thats why i dey hide my head here oo and im observing naija and its situation still i cant wait to visit my folks out there make we go kukere...I don miss home mehn!! |

crackhaus: No one ever solved anything by just complaining about it. What are you doing in your own little way to make Nigeria better? What is your contribution so far in your own little community or circle?
Everyone has a mouth that can complain or fingers that can type loads of rants regarding Nigeria, but it's only very few people that try their best to implement change...the change they seek.
I'm not a fan of Nigeria too, I also have a lot of disgust for the system but I don't make noise about it cos that would make me just like everyone else. You're guilty of the same problem by trying to exempt yourself... you just complained about people in offices acting like gods, when you just did the same thing by making yourself feel bigger than your country.
Really what is the point of this thread of yours? I see nothing here than Lamentation!!! I couldn't figure out why she has posted this thread!! |

castrogee: My dear sister,
From your questions and worries I can sense that you are passionate about your future, and you want to make the right choices! Granted, from experience no choice is entirely bad (wrong) or absolutely good (correct) but in the game of choices I think some choices are more rewarding than others. I suppose that you are in Nigeria right now and have the ambition of crossing over to the west to pursue your noble ambition.
Absolutely! When faced with this kind of dilemma of choices you hear a lot of advices both from experts, mediocres, and the downright novice. In regards to your questions I will like to chip-in my advice, which to the best of my knowledge might help you, because i was once in your shoes but now I think I know better.
Going to the UK vs Canada is synonymous with the simple Nigerian comparison of Lekki and VI which is better? The answer depends on the individual/s, but given that some people will prefer UK to Canada and others will do just the opposite tells you that both countries share a lot in common.
In terms of education I will advice you to go for UK and these are my reasons: first, I will categorize these reasons into subheadings which are duration, cost, adaptability, and opportunity.
An average MSc course in the UK takes just one year of two semesters, whereas in Canada it's basically two years of four semesters. Who wants to spend his entire life studying? If you have two assignments to do with different time variations I believe it's wise to choose the one with lesser time commitment.
Cost: remember in UK you have two semesters while in Canada there are four semesters to do. I know some Universities in UK, good universities for that matter where you can do MSc for less than 12000GBP, whereas a good recognized school in Canada will take at least 30,000 CAD in tuition fees alone and that's about 17,000GBP. I know you are looking for the opportunity to work and study but i will disappoint you with a revelation - as a student your work can only pay your house rent. I tell you this my dear sister, because I don't want you to be under the illusion that you will work and make millions, all those stories you hear na complete wash! Furthermore, getting a student job is simply luck and by chance both in UK and in Canada you might be lucky to get something but just know that it's not automatic anywhere and that's the more reason you need to make sure your tuition fees are reasonably low, so that you could have surplus to take care of yourself.
Adaptability: in this category I think I will still choose UK; this is because for someone coming all the way from Nigeria ( a tropical country in the sub Saharan Africa) cold is usually an obstacle and you have to know that the cold in Canada is no joke! Even here in America, the part of America facing Canada is called the New England and sometimes during winter the temperature can be -10 degrees So you should know what I mean now. Going forward the teaching technique in UK is quite similler to that of Nigeria unlike Canada where it's a totally different ball game. I thinks also that Nigeria shares a whole lot in common with UK more than Canada and adaptation will not be much of a problem for you in UK.
Note that the UK degree is valued very well in Nigeria and even in the west. UK remains the education capital and academic destination of the world! Canada's eduction is equally very recognized and valued.
As for opportunities there is a major reason why people choose Canada in preference to UK, and that's in getting residence papers and that where lies the whole difference in these two countries. While it is near impossible to get UK residence papers it's somehow less difficult to get Canada's papers. In fact when you finish your MSc in Canada they will give you a two year visa extension for you to work in Canada but in UK it's nothing. When you hear people shout Canada! It's simply because of the papers. I've a lot of friends in Canada and they complain to me how hard it is to survive in the country.
My sister I've taken out time to write this lengthy sermons to you because I don't want what happened to me to happen to you. I'm a software engineer based in the USA and when I came into America newly I thought all my problems have been solved, so I didn't plan very well while in Nigeria. In fact it was when I have landed in America that I started planning my life and re shaping it. I discovered immediately that all this things we used to hear while in Nigeria about the west na film trick. The reality is that things are as TOUGH here as it is in Nigeria.
Finally, I want you to take your time and plan very well. Cross check your facts don't just depend on the advice of people, but try to understand the reason why you want to travel abroad and plan accordingly. This is because people will tell you things from their own perspective and their own perspective might not be your lot. Another thing I want you to know is that at this your stage in life the sky is your starting point if you plan well. I want you to know that there is no way you can plan well without the Master and that's JESUS so I earnestly advice you to pray and believe strongly in God. I believe God is gonna see you true!
Be blessed. This is just the truth however i just do not think i could explain more of these facts to some of our people out there cos they are gonna think you dont want them to travel out. |
