Amgoodtogo: No offense bro. 90% of the population speak and understand English. Though speaking and understanding Icelandic has it's advantages.
There are job prospects. Cost and standard of living is quite high, though the high earning potential balances out everything.
And yes you can definitely combine schooling with working. However, as a student, you're only entitled to 20hrs per week to work. Iceland ke, Una no dey fear the cold? How would you manage with the weather. |

maternal: I can't think of a Nigerian who grew up in Nigeria, that moved back full-time. 99% of the time it's all talk. The downgrade of the quality of life is too great. Then again, what's your definition of moving back ? Building a house in the village only to comeback 2 weeks out of the year isn't coming back. The poverty is so great, that it's not a familiar environment anymore. It's actually sad and heart breaking. yeah but we can't all forget our home like that. We just have to build Africa or else the disrespect and the racism will be too much |

Gerrard59: I remember when I challenged you regarding the bold in one of the migration threads that graced the FP. Looking back, I feel so bad for it, and I apologise. Ignorance no good. I am glad I am even young in the game. Anything above 35 will be hard for the person to integrate and truly enjoy the experience. For those who are in that age range, they should focus squarely on what took them there, say raising money or getting the education/experience. As for insecurity, there are nearby West African countries that are safer than Nigeria. This is one of the major reasons I push/wish/want prosperous and functioning Black dominated countries.
Nothing beats being in a place where the majority look like you, speak like you, eat like you et al. The adventure I have in has been good, but the long term will be living in a place where the majority look like me and contributing my quota to societal development using what I have learnt here. God bless you |

There is no way your father wouldnt have supported you to at least secondary school. A typical Anambra man will never deny his children of support, except he is financially handicapped. My children's fees right from nursery to university were all paid by me through my wife's account, but she has always made it clear to my children that their father has been the one paying their fees. I pity you and your future. A man who calls his father a fool in public is already condemned to misfortune. You are acting out of youthful exuberance, but you will learn the hard way.

Sadly, you're flying solo here. There is no interest by Africans to fight for and build Africa. Not entirely their fault tho, cos the system is just stacked against you, but I do know that the whites were able to do it. Fought with blood and sweat to build working and functional societies......one of the reason I beef them, cos I don't accept they are better than me in any way, but the reality is the reality. They are different and better, which makes me beef them even more...na raging conflict 🤣🤣🤣 This is why we need an armed revolution not protest |

OgbeniOptional: The best decision of mine today as the UK is concerned is accepting my new reality asap after graduation and using my PSW to gain experience in care before getting into NHS which later sponsored me. While in PSW, I applied for jobs but it was always “We are sorry” or “We do not offer sponsorship for this role” until I got tired of it. The majority of my mates who use their PSW to work in some companies are being told they can't be sponsored because of new salary requirements or they lied to them they are trying to apply for sponsorship and later told them they are not applying again. As we speak, some are being scammed and still looking for a way out to remain in this country. Few who drive were lucky to get Dom care or living care. Few tried global talent visas and only one was successful. A friend was scammed £8,000 last February when desperation set in. It was at that point I realised I made the right choice. Now, I look at people who didn't even wait for PSW and switched to care visas immediately after graduation as smart people especially as most of them have family. I also feel if you are a couple, one person should have a leg in care job just for back up purpose unless you have a solid japa out of UK plan.
Another experience from a very close person to me is her employer(top firm) promised her sponsorship after the two years, the salary is way above this new threshold. They reimbursed her for the PSW. She found out she was 2-3 months pregnant after start date. By the time she came back from maternity leave, the sponsorship story changed form certain to uncertain. She wasn't sponsored.
Please, do whatever works for you. No age cap on when you can achieve your dreams unless you are planning to be a stripper 😀 no wonder people leave the UK for easy Pr |

Mcslize: You chose Canada cuz Canada is better? You dey whine me?
Australia is better than Canada 💯%, don't sugar coat it. I will never trade Australia for Canada.
Even New Zealand is by far way better than Canada, let alone Australia of all place. Come off it my friend!
By the way, I will say this for whoever that wants to read this: Do not stand in for anyone with anything that has to do with large sum of money even if the person is your relation. We call it gbese.
Majority of persons will default paying. And if the person doesn't pay, it's you that will be held responsible.
I repeat, do not allow anyone take loan or buy a property on credit using you as a guarantor or a cosigner. Many will purposely not pay so that you will end up being the one to pay from your own pocket.
That's the worst situation you will ever find yourself as a person. even me sef shock |

Penguin2: My young cousin sister just told me she got a visa to travel to Cairo and ‘work’ but I don’t trust this ‘work’ narrative.
The impression I have of these Arab cities ( Cairo, Dubai, etc) is that African girls are trafficked there to go and prostitute for their traffickers.
But people who have information about what happens in Cairo can tell me.
Do Nigerians genuinely work in Cairo or is my little cousin about to be a victim of traffickers? Brother to understand what your cousin sister will go through once she leaves Nigeria to Cairo Google the Ethiopian lady called Naima Jamal who was deceived and trafficked to Libya and see how she was tortured by those Arabs. I pray make you no lose your cousin, rather than going to Egypt, Libya, Tunisia, Morocco, Algeria, UAE, Lebanon, Oman and other middleastern countries or go anywhere illegally I will rather live and die in Nigeria. |
